In the middle of the night, Hua Kai heard a sobbing sound coming from Wang Lingling's bed.

While Hua Kai isn't a saint, Wang Lingling isn't exactly a heinous criminal either; such people are actually more insecure.

She figured they were all in the same dorm, so she didn't want her to develop any more mental health issues. What if she really became depressed, couldn't think straight, and committed suicide?

So Hua Kai got out of bed, sat down next to Wang Lingling's bed, and nudged her: "Come with me to the bathroom."

Li Xiang was snoring softly, so Hua Kai didn't want to disturb him.

Hearing the sound of flowers blooming, Wang Lingling trembled in fright: "Flower blooming, I was wrong, please don't hurt me, okay? I'll listen to you from now on."

Hua Kai sighed and said, "I never intended to harm you. It's you who harbored malicious intentions and that's why you think of me this way."

Wang Lingling remained silent; she didn't know what to say because she felt she was in the wrong.

Hua Kai continued, "I've never thought about being with anyone, and I don't have the time. Actually, most of your fears come from within yourself. When students come to school, all they need to do is study hard. What's the point of forming cliques? Will they get into university? Just focus on your studies. No normal person wastes time on others."

Wang Lingling sat up and pulled Hua Kai's arm: "I know I was wrong. Is it too late for me to change?"

Hua Kai said, "As long as you sincerely change, it's never too late. Remember, don't do anything useless in the future. Studying hard is more important than anything else." After saying that, she returned to her bed, because some things are best left unsaid and that's enough.

At this moment, Zhang Weifang woke up: "Huakai, you're still awake?"

Hua Kai said, "Okay, I'm going to sleep now. You should go to sleep too, you have to get up early tomorrow."
