Chapter 45 Chapter 45 Found you, little liar
Tao Ning lowered his head for a long moment before he raised his watery eyes. A look of confusion crossed his usually dull eyes. After a long moment, he spoke word by word, "Song Yucong... I hate you."
The voice was soft and gentle, yet it was like a blade sharper than a thorn, piercing Song Yucong's frantically beating heart. His hands clenched into fists involuntarily. He stared at Tao Ning's stubborn figure, his originally deep and hoarse voice trembling faintly: "Get lost..."
The boy he expelled left without looking back.
Song Yucong bent down instantly, gasping for breath, his whole body shaking. He was like a struggling trapped beast, in a state of unappeased chaos. He pushed over the piano's music stand and kicked away the stool. The loud noise attracted the bodyguards to come over.
"Second, Second Young Master!"
Song Yucong crushed the delicate, juicy roses. His eyes were bloodshot like a wild animal's, and sweat streamed down his forehead. He was completely mad and out of control. He slowly squatted down, gasping for breath, and tremblingly said, "Go... Go away... Give me the medicine..."
The bodyguard hurriedly handed him the medicine. The confused man swallowed it all as if it were a lifeline, without even looking at it. After a long while, just when his legs were about to go numb, he heard the madman-like Second Young Master coldly say, "Go find someone to kill Xu Jun."

【What's wrong, idiot? 】
Tao Ning: [I'm a little sad.]
Growing up, all his teachers described him as quiet and inactive. Tao Yuan also felt he wasn't as mischievous as other boys and always let him go out and play a little longer. But Tao Ning felt he couldn't express emotions like joy, anger, sadness, or happiness through socializing. He thought it would be better to just do more workbooks, which would at least give him a little joy.
He has no friends, let alone confidants, and is naturally lacking in emotional perception.
But since completing this strategy mission, he gradually had a lover, made friends... smiled more often, and became more and more sensitive to the emotions around him.
But everything has a good side and a bad side.
He will still be sad.
Tao Ning felt a certain sympathy for Song Yucong's situation in the Song family, yet also a certain dislike for him. The sky outside was gray. As she turned the corner, a cold voice suddenly rang out from behind her: "Tao Ning."
When she turned around, she was quickly embraced by the man. Tao Ning's cheeks were held in his warm palms. Xu Jun saw the tears in the corners of his eyes, and his internal organs instantly fell into the boiling sulfuric acid, feeling both painful and sour.
He gently wiped away Tao Ning's tears with his fingertips, and then said in an unbelievably cold voice: "...What's wrong?"
Of course he knew what had happened, because outside the back door of the rooftop, Xu Jun had been watching their every move. When he saw the roses all over the ground, he almost rushed out, but forced himself to hold back. Fortunately, Little Lemon didn't understand these things at all, and things were developing as he expected.
How despicable! He knew that Song Yucong was a person who could not tolerate any injustice, so he took the opportunity to sow discord between them, and then personally delivered the little lemon to him, and finally he benefited from it.
Xu Jun remained calm as he held Tao Ning in his arms and coaxed her softly, "I'm here, don't cry."
The person in his arms said sullenly, “Yeah.”
Only when people on the street looked at him strangely did Xu Jun let him go and took his hand back to the dormitory. On the way, he patiently asked Tao Ning what happened, but little Lemon, who always told him everything, refused to say a word this time.
A dark light flashed behind the cold gold-rimmed glasses. Xu Jun suppressed his impatience and waited patiently for the next opportunity to capture prey, just like a cold and poisonous snake in the grass, afraid that the prey would be frightened, so he chose to wait patiently.
Back in the dormitory, Xu Jun made Tao Ning his favorite vegetable porridge. After watching him finish it, he personally made him a strawberry cake, "A reward for taking your medicine."
Afterwards, Xu Jun spent another two hours with Tao Ning working through Olympiad questions, soothing her until her emotions stabilized. That night, as they were sleeping, Xu Jun casually asked, "Was your gold bracelet a gift from Song Yucong?"
Tao Ning said sleepily: "...No, his mother gave it to me."
"Well, didn't you say you wanted to give it to your sister? I can help you mail it tomorrow."
Tao Ning agreed in her sleep. The next morning, when she opened her eyes, a bouquet of bright sunflowers was handed to her. Xu Jun held the flowers in one hand and a packaging bag with a mobile phone logo in the other. His expression was gentle: "Happy Valentine's Day."
Having just woken up, Tao Ning was still a little dazed and said blankly, "Happy Valentine's Day..."
How strange! Do friends need to celebrate Valentine's Day? But he hadn't given Xu Jun a gift yet. Tao Ning thought about it, then hugged the sunflower and said, "Xu Jun, I'll give you ten pots of succulents."
Xu Jun couldn't help but laugh. How could giving succulents on Valentine's Day make sense? He looked at Tao Ning gently.
The young man sat on the bed with his clean and clear eyes open. Because there was no dull frame blocking his view, his beautiful face like an exquisite doll was clearly visible. His bare legs as white as jade were swaying slightly. The sight followed his legs upwards. The soft shorts squeezed out the white and tender flesh at the base of his thighs, making people want to hold them in their mouths and suck and lick them.
...Doesn't he know how attractive he is?
Xu Jun's Adam's apple slid slightly, and he shook his head and said in a hoarse voice, "I want a kiss."
Tao Ning looked confused. Her slender hand had been gently held up as if it were the most precious jewel in the world. Xu Jun bent down like a knight, but his eyes were fixed on Tao Ning's reaction. A kiss full of hidden love and desire fell on the back of Tao Ning's hand.
Tao Ning opened her eyes wide, "You..."
Xu Jun stood up calmly and said calmly, "Oxent's courses usually combine Chinese and Western elements, so kissing hands is normal."
But what does this have to do with Valentine's Day gifts? Tao Ning said "Oh" as if she understood. Maybe it was the normal etiquette here. As the saying goes, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. There is really no need to make a fuss.
Inside the bouquet of brilliant sunflowers was an envelope wrapped in kraft paper. It looked inconspicuous, but the seal was stamped with a bright red wax seal, and the pattern seemed to be the magnolia flowers in Xu Jun's residential area.
Tao Ning was stunned. Just as she was about to open it, she was held down by the man's broad hand. Xu Jun said, "Open it next time you come home with me."
Although he didn't know why, Tao Ning still agreed obediently. Finally, he carefully placed the sunflower on the desk and the envelope in the deepest part of the drawer.
Xu Jun wrapped Tao Ning's gold bracelet tightly, then took Tao Ning's hand and went out. His cell phone rang several times on the way, but he just looked at it coldly a few times and finally turned it off completely.
"Is it okay?" Tao Ning pointed out that he didn't answer the phone.
"Um...Tao Ning."
"What's wrong?"
"Do you like this gold bracelet?"
"I like it." Tao Ning nodded honestly. He believed that money was very important.
Xu Jun fell silent, then suddenly said without a trace: "You will have many gold bracelets in the future."
Tao Ning was confused. It should be said that Xu Jun's behavior had been a little strange these past few days. Perhaps he was still dealing with all that trouble and was a little tired. It was a pity that she couldn't help Xu Jun.
"Xu Jun...I'm sorry."
Xu Jun stopped, gently caressed the boy's hand, and said calmly, "Tao Ning, this is none of your business. You don't have to feel guilty. Although Oxent advocates freedom and equality, it is actually controlled by four major families, one of which is the Song family. However, due to China's national conditions, the school still relies on the admission rate to attract resources. Therefore, these four families select outstanding students from all over China to enter Oxent every year, in order to increase the school's admission rate to prestigious domestic universities."
"You are very good." Xu Jun comforted him.
"Schools, like society, always have resources skewed upwards. Over 90 percent of Oxente's resources are enjoyed by the four major families and other powerful individuals. Song Yucong was born into the Song family and has been known for his reckless squandering of resources and bad temper. We ordinary students can only avoid conflicts with him... It's normal that you can't communicate with him."
However, Xu Jun, the president of the student union, had recently mocked Song Yucong for having an IQ problem. This statement deepened the conflict and naturally put Tao Ning into his circle.
Tao Ning didn't understand what he was saying, and probably knew that he was comforting himself, but... he was in a trance for a moment. Song Yucong was not as bad as Xu Jun said, he just spoke very unpleasantly. Was this an illusion?
Xu Jun noticed his silence, which indicated his doubts about his relationship with Song Yucong. He then said slowly, "It is said that Song Yucong often frequents the Blue Gold Club and has many lovers. You should try to have as little contact with him as possible."
Tao Ning opened her eyes wide: "What is the Blue Gold Club?"
"A place where people are naked and without dignity for others to see."
Tao Ning hesitated, never having thought that there would be such a dirty place in the world. However, Song Yucong was still his target, so he said "Oh" and remained silent.
The two of them didn't talk for long before they arrived at the place where the package was to be sent. Xu Jun handed the package over.
"Young Master Zhao, Young Master Zhao!" Second Brother Sun excitedly rushed to the hammock, holding the package sent by International Shipping. The man in the hammock quickly clenched the photo in his hand and glanced at him coldly: "What's the matter?"
"The eldest lady sent me photos..." Sun Laoer panted.
"so?"
"There's news about Sister Tianxian!"
Before he could say anything, the package in his hand was snatched away. Zhao Jingqun's calloused hands were trembling slightly, and his wolf-like eyes were filled with excitement and surprise. He took a deep breath, and finally opened the package layer by layer. Inside, there was a photo.
Zhao Jingqun immediately fixed his eyes on the young man in the lower left corner of the photo.
There was a crowd of people in the background, but the boy hadn't changed at all. He was clean and tidy, and still stood quietly outside the crowd, wearing the glasses he had given him, looking at the acrobatic troupe curiously.
"Zhao... Young Master Zhao?" The atmosphere around the man suddenly dropped, becoming eerie and terrifying. Sun Lao Er wiped his sweat and said hesitantly, "The eldest lady said this was in Haizhou. My sister-in-law must have gone to Haizhou to study."
The man said nothing, his whole body emitting gloom. His rough fingertips stroked Tao Ning in the photo up and down, as if Tao Ning appeared in front of him in person, and he was kissing Tao Ning's body up and down.
After a long moment, Zhao Jingqun softly let out a "ha" that sounded like a lover's whisper, or a devil's whisper: "I found you, you little liar."
Sun Laoer watched from the side and couldn't help shivering.
