Seeing her gossipy look, Ye Qingliu said, "It's nothing, really. We just met once at the train station. Then he somehow found out about my school and he keeps hanging around there. Don't bother with him."
"Really?" Yu Li was skeptical. "Then you two..."
"I'm so busy every day that I don't even have time to reply to your letters, so how can I have time to deal with him?"
Ye Qingliu spread his hands helplessly: "Besides, my master wants me to join the art troupe recently, so I don't have the energy to care about others."
"That's true. You need to quickly build a reputation in Beijing."
After all, Ye Qingliu has no reputation, so he will be unlucky, and life is more important.
Ye Qingliu nodded. "Only by joining the art troupe can I perform on a bigger stage and let people all over the country know me. So I'm working very hard now and rehearsing every day."
"Yes, come on!"
The two girls smiled at each other, their eyes full of encouragement and blessings.
Suddenly, Ye Qingliu heard some noise coming from the state-owned restaurant across the street. Curious, "Hey, what's going on over there? What's the noise?"
Yu Li also looked in the direction where the sound came from, and saw several people gathered together arguing about something.
Yu Li was surprised: "Isn't that Su Susu and the others? What a coincidence? They're also having a birthday party at the state-owned hotel?"
"Is that the real or fake daughter you just mentioned?"
Ye Qingliu raised his eyebrows and said, "Let's go and take a look."
Yu Li followed Ye Qingliu to the outside of the crowd and squeezed into it.
Su Susu looked aggrieved, "Sister, I know you don't like me, but today is our birthday, why do you have to make such a fuss?"
"Who said I was making a fuss? It was obviously you guys who started it first!"
Su Xiaoyue's eyes were filled with anger, and she gritted her teeth with every word. "I'm telling you, Su Susu, I never thought of stealing your limelight, but you've been targeting me everywhere, and I've been tolerant enough of you. If you don't restrain yourself, don't blame me for turning against you!"
Su Susu shook her head, tears welling in her eyes: "Sister, you misunderstood me. I have never done anything to hurt you."
Su Xiaoyue wanted to say something, but her father slapped her and scolded her harshly: "That's enough. Is it okay to make such a fuss? Hurry up and admit your mistake to your sister!"
"Dad!" Su Xiaoyue covered her face which was hurt by the beating and stared at her father in disbelief.
"Isn't this embarrassing enough?" Su's father shouted angrily.
Su Xiaoyue covered her red and swollen face and cried aggrievedly.
Mother Su looked at the onlookers and felt ashamed. She pulled Father Su aside and said, "Forget it. Today is Susu's first birthday since she came back. Can you please stop making trouble?"
"Mom!" Su Xiaoyue was furious, but because her father and mother were both there, she had to shut up.
Father Su took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart: "Everyone, please disperse. It's just a quarrel between sisters. Don't gather around."
When the onlookers saw that the fun was over, they left one after another, and the other guests also left tactfully.
Su Susu lowered her head, clenched her hands, and her body trembled slightly. It was obvious that she was trying to restrain something.
Mother Su patted Su Susu's back distressedly and comforted her softly, "Be good, don't be sad. When we get home, mom will help you celebrate your birthday."
"Yeah." Su Susu responded sullenly.
Mother Su raised her eyes and scanned the surroundings, finally fixing her gaze on Su Xiaoyue. She asked in a cold voice, "Xiaoyue, you really disappoint me this time."
Su Xiaoyue took a step back in disbelief. As expected, she was still no match for her biological child.
There was resentment and despair in her eyes, and then she ran away.
Yu Li and Ye Qingliu had already left with the crowd before this.
Ye Qingliu sighed: "This Su Susu is really not a vegetarian."
"Who says it isn't?"
Yu Li said silently in his heart, it seems that you also had this character at the beginning, classmate Liu'er.
"I feel like Su Xiaoyue is no match for Su Susu."
"Not necessarily. Su Susu said Su Xiaoyue's system hasn't appeared yet."
Ye Qingliu seemed to be thinking about something. "I'm really curious about their system. Is it from the same company as mine?"
"Who says it's not? I've been wondering lately why so many people in this world have systems?"
Ye Qingliu frowned, "Perhaps there are many things in this world that we don't understand."
Yu Li nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I think so too. Although there are some things I haven't figured out yet, I know that we must have a very special identity."
Ye Qingliu snorted lightly, "Let's not worry about that for now. Anyway, it's enough to enjoy life now."
The two put aside those doubts and happily started window shopping, eating, and playing games, having a great time.
Time passed quickly, and Yu Li and Ye Qingliu parted reluctantly.
"Liuliu, I hope the next time we meet is on stage." Yu Li smiled and wished Ye Qingliu well.
"Haha, of course!"
Ye Qingliu waved his hand, and Yu Li got into Jin Hewen's car and went back.
The next day at school, Yu Li saw Su Xiaoyue with a gloomy face, which was in stark contrast to the expression of her deskmate Su Susu.
Yu Li took a quick glance and then quietly looked away.
Su Susu saw her and greeted her in a good mood, "Good morning, Yu Li."
Yu Li sat down, took out his book and nodded, "Good morning."
"Aren't you curious about what happened yesterday?" Su Susu pursed her lips and smiled.
Yu Li looked at today's classes and said, "I just happened to be passing by with a friend."
Su Susu was surprised, "That's such a coincidence."
Yu Li hummed lightly and did not respond.
Su Susu didn't continue to talk and listened attentively.
After school in the afternoon, Su Susu took the initiative to invite her: "Do you want to come to my house to play? I think we can become good friends."
"Forget it, my sister and brother are waiting for me to come home." Yu Li rejected Su Susu.
Su Susu was stunned, but she didn't feel embarrassed. She just smiled and turned away.
Su Xiaoyue was surprised when she heard this, and she chased after Yu Li when she saw him leaving the classroom with his schoolbag on his back.
"Why don't you accept Su Susu's invitation?"
Yu Li was stopped by Su Xiaoyue, "Didn't I tell you that my sister and brother are waiting for me?"
Su Xiaoyue shook her head. "It's obvious that you don't want to have anything to do with her. Do you also know her true face, so you don't want to associate with her?"
Yu Li looked at her: "I just don't want to get involved in the war between you. She wants to use me, and I don't like it."
"You..." Su Xiaoyue opened her mouth to say something, but suddenly stopped.
She originally thought that Yu Li would particularly dislike her and would join Su Susu in suppressing her, but she didn't expect that she was overthinking it.
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
After saying this, Yu Li turned and left.
Su Xiaoyue stood there, staring blankly at Yu Li who was walking away. An extremely complicated emotion surged in her heart, feeling both sad and envious. She envied Yu Li for having such an outstanding person by his side, while she had lost everything she had before.
