Chapter 66 No points

Zhou Xumao learned about Cheng Che and Li Zimai's breakup at two or three in the morning. Li Zimai was beating drums and gongs at home late at night. The neighbors reported him to Jiang Xun. Jiang Xun was abroad, so Zhou Xumao rushed over to check on the situation.

Zhou Xumao didn't know the password, so he asked someone to force the door open. The neighbor downstairs was clamoring and said he would call the police if they didn't quiet down. Zhou Xumao apologized to them for a long time before they calmed down. He thought that this shabby apartment was too soundproof.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhou Xumao realized that it was not that the apartment was not soundproof, but that no matter how soundproofed the house was, it could not withstand what Li Zimai built.

All the furniture in the living room was turned upside down, the room was littered with clothes, and the piano room was filled with the sound of piano bangs and drums. Zhou Xumao was almost deafened at the door.

When he walked in and took a look, Zhou Xumao was completely shocked. There was a strong smell of cigarette in the room. Li Zimai was playing the piano with his upper body naked and a half-smoked cigarette in his mouth. It looked really scary.

Li Zimai has always been brought up in a gentle and refined manner. Not to mention smoking, even when sitting in front of the piano he has to wear the most formal clothes. If Aunt Li sees him like this now, she will send someone to beat him up.

"Hey, my brother Li, what are you doing?"

Zhou Xumao covered his ears and shouted, "I'm going deaf! Stop!"

Li Zimai looked up at him from the smoke, but ignored him and continued smoking and playing the piano.

Zhou Xumao felt that the matter had gotten out of hand, and quickly took a photo of Gu Wei to explain the situation. Gu Wei directly asked where Cheng Che had gone. Zhou Xumao then realized that he was the only one at home, and shouted, "Where is your Che Che! Where is your Che Che?"

The sound finally stopped. Li Zimai went barefoot to light a new cigarette, then came back to continue the bang-bang-dang-dang sound.

Zhou Xumao realized something and quickly created a group and invited Yang Mingxi, who had not spoken much to him before, to join.

【Zhou Xumao】：[Picture]

[Zhou Xumao]: He's going to make a scene. Where's Cheng Che? Did they have a fight?

Yang Mingxi hadn't slept yet. He glanced at Cheng Che's bed and said with more certainty, "I think so. Brother Che returned to the dorm after 11pm with a large bag of things. It looked like he was going to stay there for a while."

Yang Mingxi was being more conservative. The truth was, Cheng Che washed and went to bed without saying a word after returning. Yang Mingxi mustered up the courage to ask him how long he would stay in the dormitory. Cheng Che said, "Until graduation."

[Gu Wei]: It’s not a big deal, but I think the matter is quite serious.

[Zhou Xumao]: Okay, the mystery is solved, and the two people broke up.

【Yang Mingxi】：!!!!!!

His CP was broken up? ! ! !

Li Zimai was lying on the carpet in the piano room, staring at the big lamp in a daze. Cheng Che said that the light was too dim and that having beautiful light was useless. Li Zimai smoked for a while, stood up, and grabbed the neck of the cello to smash the lamp.

Zhou Xumao was so frightened that he quickly snatched the guitar pole from his hand, "No, no, no, the glass will fall and you'll be disfigured."

Li Zimai suddenly thought of something and asked Zhou Xumao, "Am I good-looking?"

Zhou Xumao: “…”

Li Zimai said to himself: "Is it because of this that they have to look at me and Cheche, so Cheche is not used to it..."

Zhou Xumao felt a pang of sadness at his self-doubt and melancholy expression. "Hey, you can't think like that. There are so many people who want to look like you but they still can't."

Li Zimai fell silent. Zhou Xumao saw blood on his face, which was slightly swollen, and asked quickly, "Why is it disfigured? How did it happen?"

The blood had already coagulated, and the redness and swelling on the right side of his face from being slapped had not gone away yet. Cheng Che was so cruel to hit him that Li Zimai sent a message to Yang Mingxi, asking him to take Cheng Che to the hospital to see his hand early the next morning.

Zhou Xumao saw him sending the message and asked in surprise, "Did Cheche hit you? What did you do to make him so angry?"

Li Zimai didn't want to bother with anyone and said tiredly, "You go back. I want to be alone."

Zhou Xumao held his breath and asked, "Are you really breaking up?

Li Zimai's face was gloomy, and after a long while, he said in a sour voice, "...We didn't break up. I didn't agree. He was just temporarily tired. I was too clingy to him."

Zhou Xumao almost cried. What was going on? His good friend, who had been outstanding since childhood, finally fell in love with someone and was dumped. It seemed that he was not going to give up even after being dumped.

"Although I don't have much experience of being dumped, I can tell you that if you're dumped, you usually have to look for the reasons, like whether you had any conflicts or whether you were having an affair..."

Zhou Xumao shut up in time. How could the two of them break up because of a third party? It must be some principled issue that Cheng Che couldn't resolve. Although Zhou Xumao didn't want to discourage him, based on his understanding of Cheng Che from the few times he met him, once Cheng Che said he wanted to break up, there was no turning back.

Zhou Xumao didn't know how to comfort Li Zimai, so he could only stay by his side and stop him from getting upset.

The next day, Xu Sinian came to the apartment fearlessly, looking pitiful and saying that he was being chased by a stalker fan, so he had no choice but to run here to hide, and begged Li Zimai to take him in.

The moment Zhou Xumao opened the door, he understood everything. Li Zimai had just been thrown aside, and Xiao Lucha came up to him and said that there was no connection between the two, so he wrote his name upside down.

Xu Sinian peeked through the door and saw the chaos in the room. He immediately understood, "Did they split up so quickly?"

Xu Sinian was not very happy. He was originally angry that Li Zimai liked Cheng Che so much, so he wanted to break them up. Now that they really broke up, he felt bad. Li Zimai was the second young master of the Jiang family after all, but Cheng Che didn't care about him at all.

Zhou Xumao dragged the man to the elevator entrance and said coldly, "You'd better explain yourself clearly."

Xu Sinian sighed, "Please beg me."

Zhou Xumao was really angry and grabbed the man's neck and said, "Do you think I'm kidding you?"

"...Ahem, I'll tell you! I'll tell you!"

Xu Sinian's face flushed red, frightened by Zhou Xumao, "Do you want to kill me?"

"explain."

Xu Sinian deleted the part where he insulted Cheng Che in the car, and only said that Cheng Che found out about Cheng Che's father asking Li Zimai for money, "Don't blame me, I didn't do anything. I was trying to comfort him, but he still wanted to beat me..."

Xu Sinian was completely speechless. He saw Li Zimai walking towards him. The man who was always well-dressed was now wearing a wrinkled short-sleeved shirt with wet stains on the cuffs and collar. The swollen half of his face could not hide the hostility in his eyes.

Li Zimai asked calmly, "What else did you say to him?"

Xu Sinian felt uneasy. He had never seen Li Zimai so depressed. He didn't say a single word, but for some reason he felt so depressed that he dared not say a word.

Li Zimai laughed, his voice a little hoarse, "Why am I so annoying? No one wants to talk to me."

Xu Sinian's eyes immediately turned red, and he apologized in a panic: "No! Don't be sad... I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I just wanted to scare him. Who knew he would really break up with you..."

"Don't you know that my Cheche has always been very tired? Why are you scaring him?"

Why make fun of his scars? The people and things he never dared to mention in front of him were spread out in such a bloody manner, and his dignity was trampled on and insulted like this.

Xu Sinian buried his head and cried heavily. He didn't know Li Zimai would be so sad. He had never seen Li Zimai lose his composure before. He hurriedly grabbed Li Zimai's hand, said sorry, and said that he could go and explain to Cheng Che and asked Li Zimai not to be angry.

Lizi took a half step back, looked at his wet face, and said in the coldest voice, "I'm most afraid of seeing my Cheche cry, but you made him cry."

Xu Sinian knew he was finished. He didn't even have time to put on his sunglasses. He wiped the tears from his face and called the culprit, "We're all finished! I pissed off Li Zimai. You know I rely on Jiang Xun for all my resources. Now that I've offended Li Zimai, Jiang Xun is definitely going to deal with me."

Yang Yanning replied calmly, "Don't you use your brain before you act? You know he's been in a bad mood these past few days, but you still rushed into the trap."

Xu Sinian was shaking with anger: "Didn't you say that once Cheng Che was dealt with, we could take advantage of the situation and move in?"

"I didn't say anything about dealing with Cheng Che. What's the point in dealing with Cheng Che? Li Zimai won't turn back. You're on your own."

"you..."

Before Xu Sinian could finish his curse, the person on the other end hung up the phone. When he called again, the line was busy.

Xu Sinian kicked the hood of the car. Yang Yanning was really a scheming bitch. She kicked him and Cheng Che out with just a few words. Following the car and taking photos were all done by Yang Yanning. He was completely used as a gun by the other party and now he couldn't even keep his job.

In the group of three people——

[Yang Mingxi]: Did they really break up? I don't think Brother Che is acting strangely. He's sleeping when he should be sleeping and attending classes when he should be attending classes.

[Zhou Xumao]: Li Zimai is definitely in a breakup state, and he is now in a stage of self-doubt.

Yang Mingxi: Is there any way to remedy this? Feel free to call me if you need help.

[Gu Wei]: Are you sure there is nothing wrong with Cheng Che?

[Yang Mingxi]: No, it seems like he just gets up early and goes out very early, and he looks normal when he comes back in the evening.

[Gu Wei]: When did you go out?

[Yang Mingxi]: Probably a little after six o'clock.

[Gu Wei]: Did you ask where we were going?

[Yang Mingxi]: I asked him, and he said he went to the library. He used to go to the library often.

[Gu Wei]: Does your school library open after six o'clock?

Yang Mingxi realized that the library was not open at six o'clock. Even the door downstairs of the dormitory was not open at six o'clock.

Yang Mingxi decided to find out what was going on. He set the alarm for 6:15 and immediately followed Cheng Che as soon as he left.

Cheng Che climbed out from the clothes drying platform on the first floor. Yang Mingxi's hands and feet were not flexible, and it took him a long time to climb out. He almost sprained his ankle. He wondered if Cheng Che was born in the year of the monkey, as he was so agile.

Fortunately, there were not many people around early in the morning, and Yang Mingxi quickly caught up with Cheng Che. He saw Cheng Che enter a bakery, helping him unload goods and arrange displays. He worked for two hours until the breakfast shop ushered in the morning rush hour.

After Cheng Che came out of the bakery, he went straight to Teacher Zuo's studio. This was a normal operation. Yang Mingxi did not follow him. Until the afternoon, Yang Mingxi met a group of seniors from Teacher Zuo's studio and asked them why they got off work so early today. The seniors said that Teacher Zuo was on a business trip during this period, and there was usually no one in the studio in the afternoon.

Yang Mingxi suddenly felt something was wrong and immediately asked, "What about Cheng Che? Is Cheng Che in the studio this afternoon?"

The senior student replied, "No, he's not here. After he got sick last time, Teacher Zuo didn't let him sit in class. He only comes to meetings. He's usually very quick and finishes his work early. We haven't seen much of him lately."

Yang Mingxi followed Cheng Che for another day before he figured out that Cheng Che was so crazy that he worked five jobs. In addition to the jobs in the bakery and the studio, he also worked in a bar, a Cainiao Express Station, and a restaurant. He also had to go to class and do homework, and he slept less than four hours a day.

Yang Mingxi asked for help in the group: [He is completely working himself to death]

[Gu Wei]: Have you told Zimai?

[Zhou Xumao]: How could I dare to say that? Li Zimai now stays at home every day and doesn't go to class. He just stares at his phone in a daze. I saw him send and withdraw messages several times. When I mentioned Cheng Che, he became withdrawn and asked what day it was.

[Gu Wei]: You have to tell him that you saw how he reacted the last time Cheng Che was sick. If Cheng Che continues to suffer like this, his body will collapse.

[Yang Mingxi]: How about we get together, you bring Li Shen along, and I bring Brother Che along?

[Zhou Xumao]: I can bring Li Zimai with me, it depends on whether you can bring Cheng Che with you.
