Fu Yunsheng has not had a good life since he parted with Jiang Sanni that day. He has figured it out, and Jiang Sanni must have figured it out a long time ago. Unfortunately, the more than 50,000 yuan he got will probably have to be returned after he wrote the IOU to the other party.
Fu Yunsheng didn't think he was wrong. He just thought that everything was caused by Jiang Yiliu and Jiang Sanni, especially Jiang Yiliu. That day, he clearly saw the cold and indifferent look in Jiang Yiliu's eyes when he was sitting in the back seat of the private car. Fu Yunsheng didn't even have the courage to chase after him. He could only watch them leave.
Jiang Yiliu had seen everything he had done, and this time he took advantage of the situation and exposed his true face in front of Sanni. Fu Yunsheng hated the man who ruined his future to the core, but since someone else had the evidence on him, not only could he not do anything, he also had to be careful about what the other person might do to cause trouble for him because of that stupid woman Jiang Sanni.
"Yunsheng, what's wrong with you?"
When Fu's mother saw her son coming back with a bruised face and nose, she was terrified and hurried over to meet him with concern.
"Nothing." Fu Yunsheng covered his face, pushed Fu's mother aside, and walked into his room. The door was locked tightly. No matter how Fu's mother knocked on the door, no one in the room said a word and did not respond.
During this period, whenever Fu Yunsheng went out, he would run into a bunch of troublemakers. They would beat him up and then run away. He couldn't catch up with them. Moreover, the thugs had a very clear purpose. They would beat him when there were few people around. They didn't fight for a long time. Each of them would hit him two or three times, and before the people around him could react, they would run away.
With such obvious targeting, Fu Yunsheng could not find any other suspects except the Jiang family.
Unfortunately, he had no evidence, so it was useless for him to report to the police. Jiang Yiliu was a man of great meanness and viciousness. If he wanted to punish him, he would never leave any evidence for him to catch. He still had to go to school, so he couldn't stay at home all his life. However, as soon as he went out, the people arranged by the other party would surround him and beat him up.
Fu Yunsheng touched the wound on his face, took a breath, and felt that he couldn't go on like this.

"Jiang Yilu, I want to talk to you." Jiang Yilu was just coming out of the classroom when he was stopped by Fu Yunsheng, whose face was covered in bruises.
The usually elegant Hua Qing scholar looked so embarrassed that passers-by couldn't help but take a few more glances at him.
Jiang Yilu raised his eyebrows and looked at the dark circles under the other person's eyes. They were not caused by tiredness, but by being punched hard. He felt that the people he had found did a good job and should be rewarded with some more money.
"Don't play dumb. You did all this, didn't you? Don't force me. I'm dead, but you can't ignore your sister's reputation." Fu Yunsheng sneered and took out several pieces of letter paper from his pocket. "These are all love letters your third sister wrote to me. If you force me, I will post them all on the bulletin board of their school. Who will be willing to marry such a lowly woman in the future?"
Reputation has always been the biggest shackle for a woman. Even though the times are more open now, it does not mean that this thing is not important.
Free love is not a new thing nowadays, but it is all based on the state of starting from emotion and ending with etiquette. People's words are scary. Maybe those love letters just expressed the attachment of the little daughter, but under the influence of rumors, who knows what kind of monsters they will become.
Jiang Yilu had no idea how explicit those love letters were, nor did he know how many such things Fu Yunsheng had in his hands. However, he understood that he could not be scared by Fu Yunsheng. One compromise was just the beginning of many compromises.
"Ask Jiang Sanni to return the IOU. The fifty thousand yuan will be my compensation from your Jiang family." Fu Yunsheng gritted his teeth and decided to get the money first. Fifty thousand yuan was enough for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life. There was no guarantee that the old man would really listen to the Jiang family and do anything to an ordinary student like him.
"Also, tell your people to stop following me. From now on, we will keep our distance from each other. As long as you let me go, I will hide all those letters well. Whatever kind of partner your third sister wants to find has nothing to do with me." Fu Yunsheng was fed up with the fear of being followed, threatened and intimidated every day. Those love letters that he once disdained have now become his best weapons.
Jiang Yilu just glanced at him, ignoring his trance and hysteria, and turned to leave. The driver was still waiting for him at the school gate, and there were a lot of things waiting for him to deal with at the factory.
Fu Yunsheng originally thought that this was a sure thing, but the other party just let him go so easily without even giving him an answer. He just stood there in a daze.

"Fu Yunsheng, come out here, Fu Yunsheng——"
A large crowd of people gathered in the square in front of the teaching building of Huaqing University. A pretty girl with red eyes was crying and shouting out of control.
"Classmate, what happened to you?" There were many enthusiastic people now. Seeing the little girl's grief-stricken look, they came up to comfort her.
"Fu Yunsheng, where is Fu Yunsheng, where is that bastard?" The girl with fair and delicate appearance had red eyes and swollen eyelids. She looked at the senior Huaqing in front of her as if she had found a savior.
"That Fu Yunsheng has caused me so much trouble. I met him in a bookstore. He has always wanted to woo me, but I refused. However, he found my manuscript from somewhere, imitated my handwriting, wrote a love letter full of obscene words and posted it on the bulletin board of our school. Now everyone thinks that I am a slut. All my friends stay away from me. My tutor looks down on me. Does he know how difficult it is for a country girl like me to get into a university? Now everything is ruined. That Fu Yunsheng has ruined my life."
The girl became more and more sad as she spoke, and she collapsed on the ground crying.
"What's going on?" Someone just came to Fu Yunsheng's classroom to look for him, saying that a girl from another school was looking for her. He thought Jiang Sanni had compromised and came to bow to him. He was thinking whether he should teach her a lesson or be gentle to her so that she would be grateful and devoted to him. But who knew that when he got outside, the person who came to look for him was another woman, a woman he had never seen before.
"you--"
“Pah—”
Before Fu Yunsheng could even ask, he was slapped in the face by the girl who got up from the ground. Fu Yunsheng had been beaten every day these days and could not bear it. He did not expect that a group of Huaqing alumni would come to watch and slap him in the face.
The strength of a boy is not the same as that of a girl. Fu Yunsheng's slap made the girl's mouth bleed. She staggered and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, someone held her and she did not fall.
"Fu Yunsheng, you will not die well."
The girl covered her face and looked at Fu Yunsheng deeply, her eyes red. "Even if I become a ghost, I will not let you go."
After saying that, he rushed out of the crowd.
Fu Yunsheng was puzzled from beginning to end. Looking at the contemptuous and disgusted eyes of the people around him, he felt that something seemed to be wrong.
"You shouldn't hit him." Jiang Yilu looked at the girl sitting in the back seat of the car, feeling a little distressed. This kind of distress did not contain any emotion between men and women.
The girl pulled the corner of her mouth, which affected the wound and made her smile a little distorted for a moment.
"This way, the play can be more realistic." Her eyes curved, without the deep affection she showed in front of Huaqing students, and she looked playful and cute. "You gave me so much money, I have to work hard to finish the job."
The girl smiled and said that handing over the money and receiving the goods was always the fairest thing.
Fu Yun was born in a poor rural area like the boy in front of him. His family had a bunch of sisters and it was hard to make ends meet, but his parents still wanted to have a son. After giving birth to the eighth daughter, they finally gave birth to a golden nugget. By selling their daughters, they fed the golden nugget and made it arrogant and domineering.
Fu Yun was luckier than her other sisters. She was adopted by a childless family when she was young. In those days, sons were precious and few people were willing to give them away. Daughters were common and naturally worthless. The family treated her very well. She was the only child and they naturally spoiled her like the apple of their eye. She learned to read and write since she was young and her food and clothing were no worse than her peers. If her adoptive parents had not died unexpectedly and her biological parents knew that she had inherited their property, she would not have known that she was adopted.
Life in that family was worse than death. Fu Yun was proud, but her ignorance and rudeness interrupted her. In this place where public opinion was more important than etiquette, her demands were not recognized by everyone. Being beaten and scolded was almost commonplace.
Fortunately, Fu Yun learned her lesson and held on to the property tightly. She used it as a threat to gain the right to go to school. She thought that by getting into university, she could completely get rid of that family. Unfortunately, she was too naive.
A leech is a leech. It won't stop until it has sucked every last drop of blood.
So, she was really surprised when Jiang Yilu approached Fu Yun, but when she heard that the other party could give her 10,000 yuan and send her abroad to study and leave this place, she agreed without thinking.
In the same situation, her younger brother only knew how to get benefits from her, but the girl she had never met had such a brother who was outstanding in everything and considerate of her in every way. Fu Yun couldn't help feeling a little jealous.
When Jiang Yiluo first made the plan, he did not anticipate that the other party would be beaten. He felt bad about it, so he added another 5,000 yuan to the other party's salary so that the other party could live a more comfortable life abroad.
Five thousand yuan was just a small sum for him, but for her, it was an amount that could support her for many years. At least before she could earn money, it would give her fewer worries.
Fu Yun now is like Jiang Laidie in his previous life, which makes Jiang Yilu feel a little emotional.
******
Messages always spread very quickly. Before long, the news that Fu Yunsheng from the Economics Department bullied a girl from another school and slapped her in public spread throughout Huaqing. At that time, there were quite a few people watching. You spread the message to me, and I spread it to you. The rumor became more and more exaggerated. The only thing that remained unchanged was that in this rumor, Fu Yunsheng was completely labeled a scumbag.
No matter what the cause of the incident was, it was too ungraceful for a grown man to hit a woman, and it brought shame to Huaqing. Not only that, some gossipers remembered that Fu Yunsheng had wrongly accused his classmate Jiang Yilu in the cafeteria, which made everyone have a bad impression of Fu Yunsheng.
Because Fu Yunsheng didn't have many close friends at school, he didn't hear any news about this matter at all. He just felt that everyone looked at him strangely. Whenever he got close to them, they dispersed as if nothing had happened and went about their own business. Until Jiang Yilu came to him, he didn't know what had happened.
"Fu Yunsheng, when are you going to pay me back the more than 50,000 yuan you borrowed from me?"
The class hadn't started yet, but quite a few people were already sitting in the classroom. Since it was a public class, there were many students from different majors present. They were shocked to hear Jiang Yilu's words.
More than 50,000 yuan. Some people may not be able to earn that much money in their entire life.
"What are you talking about? I don't understand." Fu Yunsheng's cheeks twitched a little, and he looked at Jiang Yilu with a hint of disbelief. Has the other party forgotten the handle on him? How dare he ask him for money?
"You knelt down and begged me, so I was kind enough to lend you the money. But you can't be so shameless and not pay it back."
Jiang Yilu's face was full of impatience, and he lied with his eyes open, as if he was really the one who lent the money to Fu Yunsheng.
"you--"
"What do you mean by 'you'? I do have some money, but that money was earned by myself, not given by the sky. I need the money urgently now. We agreed to pay you back the day before yesterday, but I've already delayed you for two days. Don't be so shameless and make me embarrass you in front of everyone." Jiang Yilu had no intention of giving the other party any face. He held the IOU in his hand and let the other party see the repayment date on the note clearly.
The name on the IOU was signed by Fu Yunsheng himself, so he naturally knew the repayment date written on it. However, the other party had not come to him for so many days, so he thought the other party's attitude had softened, but he did not expect the other party to do this to him.
"Jiang Yilu, I know you are unhappy that your third sister and I are together, but the money was handed to me by your third sister herself, and she and I love each other so much. We are planning to get married, so how to deal with the money is naturally decided by your third sister and me." Fu Yunsheng mentioned Jiang Sanni with a warning in his tone.
The other party's words meant that he really admitted that the more than 50,000 yuan really existed. Everyone present looked at Jiang Yilu with different eyes.
"What does my third sister have to do with you? She has been preparing to go abroad for a long time. She has been practicing spoken English these days. She has no time to mess around with you. Besides, my third sister won't take someone like you seriously." Jiang Yilu's eyes flashed with contempt, and he looked at Fu Yunsheng as if he was looking at something dirty.
The onlookers remembered what happened yesterday and suddenly felt that Jiang Yilu was right. No one should marry a man who beats women.
"You——" Fu Yunsheng looked at the other person and lied with his eyes open. He angrily took out a stack of stationery from his pocket and said, "This is a love letter written to me by your third sister. How dare you say that this is not your third sister's notes?"
Fu Yunsheng handed over the letters without a care. He still had a few of them at home, and he didn't mind at all if the other party destroyed the letters. Moreover, now that they were in public, the other party wouldn't have the courage to destroy them.
"Shh——" There was a booing sound all around, and the expressions looking at Fu Yunsheng became more and more contemptuous.
Fu Yunsheng looked around in confusion, not understanding why his words of rebuttal had caused so much disgust among everyone.
"Fu Yunsheng, even if you want to imitate my third sister's handwriting, you have to imitate it more realistically. Just because you wrote a few love letters, you can frame my sister? Your next step is not to say that my sister's handwriting is the same as yours."
Jiang Yilu angrily handed the letter in his hand to other classmates. Fu Yunsheng loved to show off. There were often posters of him on the classroom's newspaper wall. Everyone was familiar with him.
The classmate took the letter handed to him by Jiang Yilu, looked at it, then looked at Fu Yunsheng. His eyes were filled with grief and sorrow, as if he was ashamed to have such a classmate.
"Student Jiang, don't worry. We will all testify for you. I didn't expect Fu Yunsheng to be so shameless. He actually came up with such a sinister trick, trying to use a girl's reputation to threaten you to refuse to return the more than 50,000 yuan. We shouldn't have such a student at Huaqing. He is simply a shame for our Huaqing."
This classmate could be considered an angry young man, and his words really touched the hearts of everyone present.
"That's right. It's not enough to use the same trick to frame that girl, and now he wants to frame another innocent girl. He is simply a scum of Huaqing." All the classmates looked at Fu Yunsheng indignantly, especially the girls who had some feelings for him before. They wished they could go blind and reflect on how they could fall in love with such a disgusting man.
Fu Yunsheng figured out the whole cause and effect in an instant, but he didn't understand. These were clearly Jiang Sanni's notes, but how did they become his in everyone's mouth? He took three or two steps forward, snatched the letters, looked at the familiar handwriting on them, and his hands couldn't stop shaking. He clearly didn't see the other party make any strange movements, so how did the letters get swapped?
Fu Yunsheng loosened his grip, realizing that by then, no one would believe him even if he handed over those letters written by Jiang Sanni. Others would only think that he had learned his lesson and imitated Jiang Sanni's handwriting again.
Jiang Yilu is such a weird person. Fu Yunsheng looked at him with resentment. Why, why did he force him to this point.
But he doesn't think that all this is only his own fault. If he had not been so greedy from the beginning and wanted to climb up by stepping on others, and had finished these four years of study peacefully, his future might not be so bright. After all, college students these days are all excellent talents with unlimited prospects.
The impact of this incident was too bad, and many students jointly wrote a letter to the school party branch to report the incident. The school decided to record a serious warning in Fu Yunsheng's file. This punishment will always be associated with his personal file, and it can be regarded as completely cutting off the political path that Fu Yunsheng was trying to get involved in.
He had no choice but to swallow the money he owed Jiang Yilu and pay it back with a broken heart, unless he wanted to be expelled. This matter also came to an end here. Some people who were interested in it also looked for Fu Yun, and the answer they got was that Fu Yun disappeared from the university, and no one knew where she went. This missing girl became a regret in everyone's heart, and Fu Yunsheng's days in Huaqing became more and more difficult.

Six years later
“Guess who I am?”
Jiang Yilu was sitting in the airport lobby, flipping through the latest newspaper, when his eyes were suddenly covered by someone, and everything in front of him was pitch black. Hearing the familiar yet strange voice, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
"Tsk, that's so boring. You don't even cooperate with me."
Ruan Ruan stood behind Jiang Yiliu, looking at him as if he was going to remain silent till the end, she pouted and let go of his hand unhappily.
Ever since the unpleasant ending at the cinema, Ruan Ruan left the capital in a hurry and returned to Hong Kong. Before leaving, she left a letter saying that she would come back when she grew up. At that time, Jiang Yilu would no longer treat her as a child and reject her with those boring excuses.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang, the girl standing in front of you is already 22 years old, which means she is of legal marriageable age. I would like to ask if you can date her with the intention of getting married."
Ruan Ruan stood in front of Jiang Yilu in a pretentious manner, saluted like a gentleman, and asked with her little head held high.
