Time passed by, and Yu Qi and her companion left Erlin University, now walking side by side on their way to Kaka.

The two didn't exchange a single word along the way; although they were walking together, they were more like strangers.

Yu Qi would occasionally turn to glance at the person beside her, her eyes filled with scrutiny and probing. Chu Yu, on the other hand, kept her gaze fixed ahead, her face calm, and showed no intention of speaking.

Actually, Yu Qi still doesn't quite understand why Chu Yu chose to come with her, even though it wasn't their first meeting. They weren't that familiar with each other, were they?

Sure enough, given the awkward atmosphere, it was better to walk with Qiqi.

This thought kept swirling in their minds. Now that they had left the school and arrived at a somewhat bustling street, the somewhat tense atmosphere between the two of them seemed unchanged.

"you……"

"How long have you known Qi Jiu?"

Before Yu Qi could finish speaking, Chu Yu interrupted her.

She was still wearing a hoodie and jeans today, looking clean and neat, with a neat short haircut and a smile on her face, she looked very pretty.

Upon hearing this, Yu Qi pursed her lips and lowered her eyes as if deep in thought.

"If you ask how long we've known each other, it's probably only been a month, but I've known her for a long time. Several months? I knew her long before Qiqi knew me."

Upon hearing this answer, Yu Qi burst out laughing without restraint. This sudden action startled Yu Qi, and a look of bewilderment gradually appeared on her face.

What... happened?

Before I could figure it out, I heard Chu Yu speak again.

"You've only known each other for a month? You already think you're close to Qi Jiu? Do you know that Qi Jiu had a friend before, someone she was so close to that she was willing to give her life for. Neither you nor the person next to her now, Leng Ruo, can replace her."

Looking at Yu Qi's somewhat bewildered face, Chu Yu felt a sense of pride that came from nowhere.

"But it's a pity that her friend is no longer alive, otherwise you would have been friends with her too?"

The sarcasm and laughter in his tone made Yu Qi feel extremely uncomfortable.

The Chu Yu now and the Chu Yu in front of Qi Jiu are like two different people, both in their actions and expressions.

She didn't understand why there could be such a big difference between the two people. If the Chu Yu in front of her was her true personality, then the person in front of Qi Jiu must be exhausted from pretending.

And now that the topic has come up, Yu Qi seems to understand something, and her eyes unconsciously change.

"What are you trying to say? We should feel sorry that Qiqi's friend is gone, what do you mean by this?"

The two of them had stopped at some point and were just looking at each other.

"Don't you understand what I'm trying to say? It seems that this is all the top students in China are like." Chu Yu sneered, her face full of confidence and arrogance.

"Aren't you all curious about why I can appear by Qi Jiu's side now, after only meeting her a couple of times? I guess it won't be long before my relationship with her surpasses all of yours."

What Chu Yu didn't know about this question was that the person in front of her already knew the reason behind it.

"It's just that you look like her, but the credit doesn't go to your face, it's to your shamelessness. Qiqi has already made it very clear, and I don't know where you get your sense of pride."

They already refused back then, and now they can still say such things. I really don't know where they get the nerve.

If Yu Qi is usually a lively and playful little rabbit in front of Qi Jiu, her personality is completely reversed now, and the twin ponytails on her head have not diminished her aura.

Hearing this answer, Chu Yu was taken aback. "You all knew?"

"Otherwise what? Do you think Qiqi is stupid? The moment you met her, your face was already used up."

Although they didn't understand why Chu Yu went to such lengths to get close to Qi Jiu, now that they had seen her true colors, they could roughly understand that the person in front of them was not a good person.

The smile on Chu Yu's face had disappeared at some point, and her eyes were fixed on Yu Qi, as if she was thinking about something.

From an angle where the person opposite couldn't see, his right hand quietly reached for his waist.

Suddenly, Yu Qi seemed to see something and waved behind her.

"Idol, you're out too?"

"Oh dear, what are you doing?"

Upon hearing Yu Qi's voice, Chu Yu seemed to sense something and collapsed to the ground. She had put in a lot of effort, deliberately twisting her ankle.

Now, with his face full of pain, he truly understands it.

The change happened so fast that Yu Qi hadn't even had time to react before she was already sitting on the ground, clutching her ankle in pain.

“Yu Qi, I kindly asked you to come out and buy coffee, how could you treat me like this? If you're jealous that Qi Qi is nice to me, then I'll just stay away from her from now on! We're not from the same country, so we shouldn't be friends in the first place.”

Yu Qi, who heard everything, was speechless.

No, did she hear that right? Shouldn't this melodramatic scene and these melodramatic lines be something out of a romance novel with a domineering CEO and Mary Sue protagonist?

Why is this happening to her now? Is it for friendship?

But Yu Qi didn't think that way. She was very confident now. Just because of her face, she believed that no matter what she did, Qi Jiu would help her unconditionally, just like on the first day.

"Idol……"

It has to be said that Yu Qi is a little flustered now, but thinking about their previous interactions, she gradually calms down.

Qiqi is calm; she could do it before, and she definitely can do it now!

From the moment Qi Jiu arrived in front of them, she didn't say a word. She looked down at the person whose face was full of pain, who was groaning and clutching her ankle, her face remaining calm.

"You twisted your ankle?"

The cool, clear voice reached their ears.

Chu Yu nodded, then looked up at Qi Jiu's aggrieved face. "I was originally accompanying Yu Qi to buy coffee at Kaka, but I don't know what happened, I just said that we're close, and she pushed me..."

Judging from her voice and the aggrieved look on her face, anyone who didn't know better would think that Chu Yu had suffered a tremendous injustice.

However, what they didn't know was that Qi Jiu had been following behind them the whole time, and she deliberately came out when Yu Qi saw her.

"Oh? Is that so?"

The girl squatted down in front of Chuyu and just as she reached out her hand, Chuyu froze, her whole body stiffening.
