Chapter 43 A Little Congratulation
When Yan Sui woke up, the system notification sound flashed in her mind, telling her that a new gift had been received.
Tan Shu was still asleep. She tiptoed out of bed, walked to the computer desk, turned on the computer, and began to check the things that the system had transferred to her computer as a "gift."
The familiar computer desktop was still the same as it was before she closed it yesterday morning.
The only extra thing is a folder called "Coriander" hidden in the corner of the desktop.
Her fingers holding the mouse trembled slightly.
The pattern of the computer file was reflected in his eyes, and his mind couldn't help but recall how he felt when he saw this file while sitting at the desk in his previous life.
She was wondering what was stored in the folder locked by Yu Shuli.
The password hint is coriander.
Same as the folder name.
At that time, her relationship with Yu Shuli was already on the decline. He had become very close to Yu Yunxi, whose online nickname she had seen in the school group chat - "Loves Cilantro".
The answer was laid bare before her, but Yan Sui did not dare to verify it.
She is not afraid of making mistakes, she is afraid of success.
So, after staring at the computer screen for about two or three minutes, Yan Sui chose to exit and closed the laptop screen.
After a while, Yu Shuli came back and asked her with a smile what she wanted to eat in the evening.
Yan Sui just answered "whatever" and didn't mention the folder at all.
That was her only chance to verify whether Yu Shuli had fallen in love with someone else.
Ke Yansui didn't click it, she chose not to verify the answer.
Every drop of blood in her body still hoped that he still loved her.
So she didn't dare to gamble.
But until death, and then rebirth back to his high school days.
She still had no answers to the questions about Yu Shuli from her previous life.
Yan Sui remembered what the system had said to her before.
The system will randomly take something from her previous life that can solve her current question.
She originally thought that this thing would be related to Yan Zhaoting.
But I didn't expect it to be this folder named "Coriander".
Yan Sui's eyes dimmed, and her fingers slowly typed three words on the keyboard - Yu Yunxi.
She stared at the screen intently. She had already entered the answer, but her finger on the mouse was still not moving.
It was clearly winter, and there was no indoor heating in the south. She hurried out of bed in her pajamas, not even having time to throw a coat over her shoulders. But Yan Sui's forehead was already covered with a thin layer of sweat.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the ticking of the clock on the wall was the only sound source in the room.
Yan Sui sat in front of the computer desk, with various emotions in her mind making the final tug at war.
Until Tan Shu turned over on the bed and muttered something incoherent.
Yan Sui's thoughts were suddenly awakened. She turned around suddenly and saw that Tan Shu had just turned over and was not awake. Her tense shoulders slowly drooped.
Her thoughts were awakened, and she no longer hesitated.
Yan Sui clicked "Confirm" without hesitation. The file icon disappeared from the screen and the loading icon kept spinning.
Her heart was once again led by the icon, and it was beating so hard that it seemed like it was about to burst out of her body.
Yan Sui couldn't help but hold her breath, her eyes fixed on the loading circle on the screen.
One second, two seconds, three seconds——
Buzz——
A window popped up on the screen——
The password was entered incorrectly.
For some reason, her heart slowed down in an instant, and all the strength in her body was exhausted, in exchange for a long sigh of relief.
At this time, Tan Shu on the bed called her name vaguely.
Yan Sui quickly turned off the computer and turned around to respond.
"What time is it?"
Yan Sui glanced at the wall clock and replied, "It's half past six."
Tan Shu lying on the bed drew out the "ah" sound and said that he would be late if he didn't get up, but his body was curled up in the quilt without moving at all.
She said depressedly, "It's Monday again."
Yan Sui followed with a smile: "Yeah, it's Monday."
At this moment, she felt extremely relaxed.
—
Yan Sui didn't know whether Yu Shuli was conscious that night.
But after she said "past tense", everything around her suddenly became quiet.
Those who used to always find various excuses to get close to him seemed to suddenly wake up and return to the state they were in before they were unfamiliar with each other.
In the class where they changed shifts, she and Yu Shuli were still deskmates.
But he no longer pestered her with inexplicable words or excitedly invited her to go out and play like he used to.
He calmed down, and apart from the necessary communication in class, he didn't say anything else that was not related to learning.
However, a math notebook would still be placed on Yan Sui's desk. Next to the wrong questions on her test papers would still be yellow sticky notes filled with the solutions and steps for each problem.
Just like before, it seems like nothing has changed, yet it seems like everything has changed.
There was no longer any noisy voice in her ears that would hinder the progress of her mission.
After the evening self-study get out of class, Yan Sui received a text message from Tan Shu
: The weekly test results are out and I did very poorly. I'm going to hide at my grandparents' house tonight.
: I won’t go back with you! Be careful on the road!
Yan Sui replied "OK", put away her phone, walked out of the teaching building and towards the school gate.
At the end of the evening self-study get out of class, the school gate was crowded with people. Except for the senior high school students who were forced to live on campus, most of the students in the first and second years of high school gathered together to leave the school after the third evening self-study get out of class.
Yan Sui followed the crowd out of the school gate.
The team dispersed the moment they left the school gate. She slowly followed the crowd, moving towards the intersection in small steps.
Just as Yan Sui was about to walk out of the area surrounded by parents at the school gate, she suddenly saw a man's face in the crowd.
The man also saw her, and there was inquiry in his seemingly calm eyes.
Yan Sui was startled and stopped subconsciously.
The classmate behind her didn't brake in time and bumped into her schoolbag. He held his nose and cursed: "Are you crazy? Why did you stop so suddenly?"
Yan Sui apologized to the classmate behind her and changed direction to where the man was.
After an eye contact, the man took the initiative to leave the crowd and led her to a place with fewer people.
By the time they reached the other side of the street, the well-connected intersection had diverted most of the students, leaving only a handful of them. There weren't many pedestrians at this hour, and most of the people passing by were students.
"Let's stay here! If you go to a place with fewer people, I won't dare to follow you." Yan Sui stopped first and shouted to the people in front.
The man was stunned for a moment, then a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Are you still afraid?"
Yan Sui said frankly: "Anyone would be afraid, especially when facing someone like you."
Hearing this, a hint of cruelty flashed in the man's eyes: "What do you know?"
Yan Sui didn't answer, but asked, "What's the matter with you coming to see me, Mr. Tian?"
The man in front of her was Tian Ji, whom she had met by chance in the alley that day.
He is also the key person for her to complete the task.
"Stop pretending. You came to find my daughter, didn't you just want me to come find you? I can't believe you'd find me even though we've never met before." Tian Ji paused, his tone suddenly becoming more ruthless. "Tell me, what do you know?"
A student walked by behind her. Yan Sui stopped talking and waited until the student left before speaking again: "I know everything."
Tian Ji was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said "Impossible". His expression changed, and he blurted out: "How could Yan Zhaoting tell you those things?!"
"Yeah, how could he possibly tell me this? He's already on guard against me," Yan Sui smiled, "I found out on my own. Yours, his, I know everything."
As soon as she finished speaking, Tian Ji suddenly fell silent.
He lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
Yan Sui took in his reaction: "Did you know that Yan Zhaoting cheated on his wife and had a woman outside?"
Tian Ji didn't say anything.
Yan Sui nodded in understanding: "It seems you know. Then you know that Yan Zhaoting wants to divorce my mother and flee with that woman to settle abroad, do you know?"
Tian Ji still didn't say anything.
Yan Sui nodded again: "It seems that you know this too."
She continued, "Then you know that the reason Yan Zhaoting wanted to go abroad was because he heard rumors that what you guys were doing was about to be discovered, and he decided to flee and settle abroad to avoid being tracked down. Did you also know about this?"
Tian Ji suddenly raised his head.
"Are you surprised that I know about you two, or are you surprised that Yan Zhaoting is planning to run away?"
He fell silent and asked, "Why do you know this?"
Yan Sui shrugged: "I told you, I've found out everything about you two."
Facing Ueda Ji's gaze,
She narrowed her eyes, tilted her head slightly, and said with a smile: "Now, your secret is no longer a secret."
In fact, Yan Sui was unsure about what to do with Ueda Ji.
Especially when Tian Shan refused to tell Tian Ji about her molestation by Yan Zhaoting, Yan Sui didn't even know how to convince Tian Ji to stand on her side and help her deal with Yan Zhaoting.
Meeting Tian Ji that day was an accident, but she knew that once she met Tian Ji, this suspicious man would definitely investigate her.
When she returned home that day, her heart was still pounding and she was so nervous that she wanted to vomit.
Without Tian Shan's incident as a blessing, there would only be two possibilities for her meeting Tian Ji -
First, Tian Ji told Yan Zhaoting about her search for him, which would put her mission at risk. At that moment, she had no choice but to confront Yan Zhaoting. She let Yan Zhaoting go and let him divorce her mother. Then she fled with her family.
This is the worst-case scenario.
Second, Tian Ji would not tell Yan Zhaoting, but chose to come to her.
That meant that Tian Ji, as the system had said, wasn't entirely loyal, and that he had his own thoughts and considerations. Sony had come to her, and Yan Sui's plan would have been halfway successful.
Tonight, she met Tian Ji. Yan Sui was actually pleasantly surprised.
Although Tian Ji did not choose to cooperate with her, the fact that he came to find her proved that he was still wavering in his heart.
As long as you don't deny everything, there is still a chance.
To be honest, Yan Sui didn't want the worst solution.
She didn't want to let Yan Zhaoting off so easily.
