Oh no! If Su Ke and Liu Nian break up, it must be his doing. He'll feel so guilty! What should I do?

Neither of them spoke again, and neither answered Li Yue's question.

When they arrived at the school, Xiao Yang and Li Yue got out of the car first, and saw that Su Ke was still in the car.

Li Yue: "Su Su, what are you doing? We're at school."

Su Ke looked at his phone, his expression unreadable: "I have something to do, you guys go back first!"

Xiao Yang knew that Su Ke was going to find Liu Nian, so he didn't say anything, but instead called Li Yue along.

"Let's go inside first!"

Li Yue nodded: "Okay! Then remember to go back to school early!"

Su Ke didn't answer her, but instead told the driver to drive off, and he gave Liu Nian's home address.

Liu Nian didn't get home until the early hours of the morning. When the car entered the community, the headlights shone on the person standing at the entrance.

Su Ke was scrolling through his phone with his head down, but his thoughts were wandering, and he seemed lost in thought. Standing by the gate, he looked somewhat lonely.

There were hardly any people around at this hour; even the security guards at the entrance were resting.

Liu Nian drove over and parked next to him, then rolled down the window.

"Su Ke".

Upon hearing the voice, Su Ke suddenly looked up and saw Liu Nian, and his eyes welled up with tears.

Her voice was choked with emotion: "Sister."

He messaged her all night and even went to her house, but she didn't come back for a long time.

It's okay if Liu Nian doesn't reply to his messages, but he panics when she doesn't come home. He doesn't know where Liu Nian went, and he can't find her.

Liu Nian looked at him calmly and said softly, "Get in the car."

Su Ke immediately sat in the passenger seat without even fastening her seatbelt, and looked at Liu Nian ingratiatingly: "Sister."

Liu Nian ignored him, drove past the scanner, and entered the parking lot.

Liu Nian ignored him, and Su Ke wisely kept quiet as well.

He knew that Liu Nian was angry at this moment.

Back upstairs, the first thing Liu Nian said upon entering the room was...

"Su Ke, I can't tolerate even a grain of sand in my heart. You either need to be devoted to me and stop being fickle, or if you can't do that, we'd better break up."

Su Ke's eyes reddened when he heard the word "breakup," and without thinking, he went up and hugged Liu Nian.

"Sister, I'm not fickle. The girl in A-Yang's WeChat Moments is a friend of mine and A-Yang's. I don't like her, and we won't break up."

He held her tightly, as if afraid that the fleeting years would leave him.

Liu Nian let him hold her, and said in a cold tone, "I called you today, and she answered."

Su Ke had no idea that there was such a thing as a phone call, nor did he know that Li Yue had answered his call without his consent.

He immediately offered an explanation.

Her voice was somewhat flustered: "I'm sorry, sister, I didn't know."

Liu Nian broke free from his embrace and said in an unquestionable tone.

"I don't care how good your relationship is. If either of you has impure motives, I can't tolerate it. You either solve the problem, or we're done."

"If you can't bear to part with your friendship, you can give up your love."

This was the first and last time she made Su Ke make such a choice.

Her mission was complete, and if Su Ke hadn't chosen her, she could have left without hesitation.

She chose to stay here for Su Ke's sake; if he no longer needed her, there would be no point in her staying.

Liu Nian's attitude was very cold, and Su Ke didn't like her like that. He was afraid of Liu Nian because she seemed emotionless, and he didn't want to lose her.

He couldn't imagine the consequences of not having the passage of time; he thought he would go mad.

"Sister, let's not break up. I'll handle it. I'm sorry, please don't break up."

Looking at his reddened eyes, Liu Nian sighed silently in her heart.

"I won't pressure you. We can separate for a while. You can use this time to think things over. After all... long live friendship, love is optional."

"No." Su Ke made a quick decision: "Don't calm down, sister."

If given time to calm down, not only would he be unwilling, but he would definitely choose not to accept it; he wouldn't allow it to happen.

Thinking this, he hugged Liu Nian tightly again, buried his head in the crook of her neck, and said in a choked voice, "Sister, please don't abandon me."

Just as Liu Nian was about to reach out and push him away, she suddenly froze.

She felt a warm, wet liquid on her neck.

Su Ke cried!

It would be a lie to say I don't feel sorry for him, but if I don't push him a little, this brat probably won't know how to make a choice.

She decided to add fuel to the fire, so she said emo: "Actually, every relationship is like an endless game, it's about whether you want to surrender and start the next game."

Su Ke's body trembled suddenly, and he tightened his arms around Liu Nian.

"Let's separate for a while! You might find that people your own age are more suitable for you."

"No, sister, don't separate, I only want yours." She then burst into tears.

Liu Nian: "..." Oh no, the fire's gotten even fiercer.

In the end, Su Ke stopped crying on his own. Liu Nian didn't comfort him and even made him sleep on the living room sofa when it was time to sleep.

Last time, the two of them bought a lot of furniture together. Among them, Liu Nian specially bought a sofa that was 1.2 meters wide and 2 meters long so that he could comfortably lie in the living room and watch TV.

The fact that Liu Nian didn't drive him away was already the biggest concession Su Ke had made. Although he felt wronged, he knew that it was his own fault that caused this misunderstanding, so he had no choice but to obediently sleep on the sofa.
