Previous life, 2017.
Wang Jinling, in the black soil of the Wang family of Wanghai, watered with malice, will this seed bear sweet fruit? Or will it be something even more sinister, or will it be blunted and broken along the way? Ultimately, she overcame the mountain of her fathers, fought her way out of the siege of her family, and offered the final answer: she is a delicate rose, thorny and inaccessible, and not just one swaying in the wind; her roots cling to Wanghai, spreading endlessly.
By the time Chen Tinghan realized what kind of person she had grown into, he had already followed in her footsteps and entered the university campus.
After a year, he finally cleared the fog and pieced together the truth about the deaths of Zhou Jinwei and Cheng Jun, and discovered that everything was closely related to Wang Jinling. Chen Tinghan almost collapsed.
Before that, Wang Jinling had always appeared in front of him as a victim, a victim of Wang Kai's patriarchal oppression, a bearer of the heavy pressure placed on her by Zhong Yinhua, and a poor girl tortured by violence. These identities were exchanged for Chen Tinghan's full support. His analysis directly led Zhou Jinwei into a dead end. In order to "protect" Wang Jinling, Lao Zhou took risks and eventually died.
Chen Tinghan took the blame for this blood debt on himself and also on Wang Jinling.
That's why he chased her to school. Besides the lingering "redemption" plot in his heart, he also wanted to ask her for an explanation.
However, when they met again, Wang Jinling didn't seem to care about this issue. Looking at Chen Tinghan's slightly mature face, there was only tenderness in her heart.
However, in the year after she entered university, she never directly answered any of Chen Tinghan's questions.
It was not until a year later that she secretly prepared a big gift for Chen Tinghan.
Wang Jinling asked someone to drive him quietly to an apartment building.
"Come in with your shoes on, it's okay."
She walked on her high heels and led Chen Tinghan into the house. She said, "If you don't mind, you can live here during your time at school. It's very quiet and no one will disturb you."
"The room over there is yours. Use it for resting and sleeping. I've had your favorite computer and gaming equipment set up in the other room. It's the e-sports room you've always wanted." Wang Jinling said, "I still remember the first time you treated me to a meal in high school, it was a box lunch you ordered at the internet cafe."
"You actually still remember it." Chen Tinghan lowered his head embarrassedly and said, "I'm flattered."
"Don't be polite, this was originally prepared for you." Wang Jinling smiled and sat on the sofa, saying charmingly, "If you want, your name can be written on the property deed."
Chen Tinghan was extremely surprised. He looked up and found that the other party did not seem to be joking. Then he asked, "Why? This is too expensive."
Wang Jinling said seriously, "You may not realize it yourself, but the last year of high school I spent with you, and the summer after graduation, were the happiest times of my life. I could even say that was the starting point of my life."
In two years, she completed her transformation, with significant changes in her demeanor, tone of voice, and even clothing. Because Chen Tinghan lowered his head, the first thing he saw was her high heels and feet wrapped in stockings. He felt offended and looked away, but then he felt that it was a bit unreasonable. He came here to ask for an explanation, so he shouldn't be timid, nor should he take advantage of her.
However, such scenes have happened too many times in the past year, and the more frequently they happen, the more anger accumulates in his heart.
Chen Tinghan knew that once some issues were brought up, the two would be at loggerheads, so he twisted his fingers but did not ask those questions.
Then Wang Jinling stood up and sat on the coffee table, moving closer to him. She took the initiative and said, "You never come to me on your own initiative, and you seem reluctant to talk to me."
Chen Tinghan said softly, "What's there to say? If I hadn't paid attention to you, I wouldn't have spent so much effort to get into this school a thousand kilometers away from Wanghai.
However, I really didn't expect that your dressing style would change so much in just one year. You're still in college, but you dress like an urban white-collar worker."
Wang Jinling's eyes softened. She took off her high heels, crossed her legs and raised them up, resting her stocking-clad feet on Chen Tinghan's thighs. She whispered, "You should dress formally when attending an event."
Chen Tinghan shuddered, pursed his lips, and said calmly, "Why don't you join the student union like you did in high school?"
She shook her head and said, "I won't do the same thing again. It's about class activities. You know, I'm used to making myself comfortable and having people under my thumb."
Chen Tinghan suddenly looked up at her without saying a word.
Wang Jinling giggled, lifted Chen Tinghan's chin, and said, "Look at your pitiful eyes, like an abandoned puppy. Let me tell you, you are an exception."
Chen Tinghan said with a hint of sarcasm, "Why should I be an exception?"
"Because humans are afraid of loneliness," Wang Jinling suddenly said. "If I control someone, then that person is destined to be unable to rely on me directly. There's a saying that goes, 'Admiration is the furthest distance from understanding.' You may think I'm arrogant, but I sincerely believe that there are not many people in this world who can understand me intellectually."
And you happen to be one of them, the first one. Is it the greatest luck in life to have someone who always looks at me and understands me?"
Chen Tinghan suddenly grabbed her ankle with considerable force and said hatefully, "Have you ever understood me?"
