Chapter 245: Estrangement



Because she was too frightened, Cen Jiao forgot a lot of things.

But she still remembered Chen Yuzhu.

As a girl who is too beautiful and spoiled, Cen Jiao has gained many benefits, but has also suffered a lot of malice.

During her middle school years, among a bunch of noisy and annoying boys and girls who secretly talked about her behind her back, only the quiet and elegant Chen Yuzhu seemed a little special and was classified by her as someone who could become a "friend".

But before Cen Jiao could extend an olive branch to her, Chen Yuzhu transferred to another school and left.

This inevitably made Cen Jiao, who was always proud and arrogant, feel a little frustrated.

Is it really impossible for her to make a female friend that suits her?

Why do others have close friends with whom they can talk about anything, but she is always alone?

Cen Jiao even remembered that she seemed to have helped Chen Yuzhu.

She forgot how she helped.

But when I saw Chen Yuzhu again, she was so cold to me.

She took the initiative to greet Chen Yuzhu, but Chen Yuzhu simply nodded at her and said calmly, "Long time no see."

The light in Cen Jiao's eyes dimmed again.

She had long been accustomed to being treated like a star, and suddenly being treated coldly felt like someone had poured a basin of cold water on her head in public, leaving her feeling depressed and unhappy.

Tch, that's nothing great.

Many people tried their best to please her and get close to her, but she just looked down on them.

She also didn't want to be friends with Chen Yuzhu.

Looking at the base uniform on Chen Yuzhu, she is, after all, just a bodyguard for Cheng Yang.

Cen Jiao retreated back to Huo Jinran's side and subconsciously straightened her back, trying to prove in this way that she was better than Chen Yuzhu.

Jiang Zhaosu has been observing silently.

She could see that Cen Jiao was very excited when she first met Chen Yuzhu, but Chen Yuzhu only said one sentence and Cen Jiao seemed to get angry.

So confusing.

Jiang Zhaosu felt that he would never be able to understand Cen Jiao's way of thinking in this lifetime.

Chen Yuzhu spoke again: "You and Pei Chixuan helped me at the school gate that year. I am very grateful."

Cen Jiao snorted.

She just remembered that she had helped Chen Yuzhu.

It’s Pei Chixuan again.

They all said that she had dated Pei Chixuan, but why did she have no impression of this name at all?

Cen Jiao couldn't help but look at Huo Jinran beside her: "Jinran, is what they said true? Do you know that Pei Chixuan?"

Huo Jinran: "..."

Damn Cheng Yang!

Cen Jiao had finally forgotten about the guy named Pei, why would he suddenly come here and bring up all this!

Surrounded by people Cen Jiao once knew, Huo Jinran couldn't hide his feelings any longer and replied, "I know him. But he treated you very badly before, always losing his temper with you. Maybe it was these unpleasant experiences that made you subconsciously choose to forget him."

"Yeah?"

Cen Jiao was confused and a little worried at the same time: "Where is he now? He won't come to bother me again, right?"

She had been harassed by some uncultured men before, and almost suffered from psychological trauma.

"No." Huo Jinran said calmly, "He's dead."

"Ah?" Cen Jiao was even more shocked. "Dead?"

Cheng Yang immediately said, "Sister Jiaojiao, Pei Chixuan just passed away two months ago, and you were so frightened that you forgot about him. How could it be such a coincidence? Maybe someone is playing tricks on you!"

"Cheng Yang, what do you mean by this?!" Huo Jinran could no longer suppress the anger in his words.

Pei Chixuan alone already made Huo Jinran very uncomfortable, and now Cheng Yang showed up.

If Cheng Yang's father was not the commander of Yangyao Base, Huo Jinran would have used the "Spirit of Words" to silence him forever.

So beautiful!

Well done Cheng Yang!

Jiang Zhaosu almost laughed out loud when he heard Cheng Yang tell the truth so clearly.

Although Huo Jinran was not the one who did this, he was still the beneficiary after all, so it would not be unfair to blame him.

Sure enough, after Cheng Yang blurted out this sentence, Cen Jiao was obviously stunned: "Chi Xuan, just passed away two months ago..."

Cen Jiao felt her head suddenly start to hurt.

Some vague fragments of images flashed in her mind.

When she was in middle school, Chen Yuzhu was blocked by a group of thugs at the school gate. She whispered a few words to the person next to her, and that person stepped forward without hesitation and drove those thugs away.

When she was in college, there was always a tall and handsome figure waiting outside the classroom door early. When he saw her leave the classroom, he would immediately walk towards her.

After the end of the world, that person stood in front of her and protected her countless times.

In order to make her happy, the man risked his life and tried every possible means to find fireworks, and performed a grand and splendid fireworks feast for her with flames in the dark night sky.

But in these fragmented memory fragments, Cen Jiao still couldn't see the man's face clearly.

It was as if a thick fog was deliberately placed between her and that person.

But when she tried to dispel the fog and see the truth, her head felt as if pierced by countless needles, and she immediately felt a splitting headache.

"ah--"

Cen Jiao covered her head with her hands and couldn't help but let out a scream of pain.

"Jiaojiao!"

"Sister Jiaojiao!"

Huo Jinran and Cheng Yang's voices rang out at the same time, their eyes filled with anxiety and worry, trying to support her as she was about to fall.

Cen Jiao was first embraced by Huo Jinran.

The man's slender arms were wrapped around her tightly, his chest was broad and strong, giving her a sense of security.

But after hearing what Cheng Yang said, Cen Jiao leaned on him again, but what she felt was not peace of mind, but an indescribable doubt.

Was her amnesia an accident, or was it intentional as Cheng Yang said?

Because she forgot about Pei Chixuan, Cen Jiao also forgot about the fight between Pei Chixuan and Huo Jinran in the training ground.

She actually didn't know much about her relationship with Huo Jinran before.

It was only during the time when she lost her memory that Huo Jinran had always been by her side, taking care of her meticulously, and repeatedly saying that they had already fallen in love with each other. Only then did Cen Jiao gradually accept her identity as Huo Jinran's fiancée.

But the appearance of Cheng Yang was like a heavy hammer, ruthlessly shattering this illusory and sweet dream.

She was dating another man two months ago, and that man died.

What is going on here?

Cen Jiao was already a little afraid of Huo Jinran. Now that she leaned on Huo Jinran's warm chest, she felt a chill running up her spine, making her feel creepy.

She couldn't help but push Huo Jinran away, turned to look at Cheng Yang, and said in a trembling voice: "Cheng Yang..."

"Sister Jiaojiao."

Cheng Yang responded immediately, and the worry and concern in his eyes when he looked at her did not seem fake.

Cen Jiao frowned slightly and said hesitantly: "Can you tell me more about the past..."

"OK!"

Cheng Yang was worrying about how to keep Cen Jiao away from the dangerous Huo Jinran, so he agreed immediately.

Jiang Zhaosu:!!!

Done!
