Chapter 449: The End of Friendship
The one who came was naturally Professor Xu, and Xu Xinran also came with him.
Lin Xiaoxia also stood up and greeted Professor Xu together with Lu Jingshen.
Professor Xu walked into the room with an apologetic look on his face: "I'm sorry, Depth of Field, Xiaolin, I really didn't expect Xinran to be so ignorant. This is due to my poor education. I apologize to you on her behalf."
Lu Jingshen said, "Professor Xu, please sit down and tell me if this can be resolved with just an apology."
Professor Xu sighed and sat on the sofa. Xu Xinran sat next to Professor Xu and looked at Lu Jingshen with hatred.
Lu Jingshen also saw Xu Xinran's expression. He was really confused and asked Xu Xinran directly: "What have I done to you that you want to retaliate against me like this?"
Xu Xinran sneered, "You don't even know? You've lived so carefree for so many years, and you've ruined my entire life, and you're still asking me?"
Lu Jingshen frowned and looked at Xu Xinran: "I don't think I have ever hurt you. If you have anything to say, just tell me in person."
Professor Xu was also confused: "Xinran, what's the matter? Can't we talk about it face to face? If it is really Depth of Field who did something wrong and hurt you, I will help you get justice."
Lin Xiaoxia also had a lot of doubts at this time, because Lu Jingshen was not someone who could hurt others and not remember it.
Xu Xinran also knew that it was too difficult to take revenge on Lu Jingshen, but she couldn't let Lu Jingshen live so carefree. She had to let him know his crimes and let him live in self-blame for the rest of his life.
She stood up and looked at Lu Jingshen: "Do you still remember what you said to my dad in the study one evening when I was a sophomore?"
Lu Jingshen thought about it for a moment, but still had no specific impression: "I must have been to your house many times back then. I can't remember what we talked about, but I didn't say anything to hurt you."
Xu Xinran smiled, a very sinister smile: "Didn't I say that? You really are a forgetful person. You don't like my looks or my personality. My father said good things about me because that's his preference. Not everyone thinks so."
Lu Jingshen remembered it at this time, and he did not deny it. "I did say that Professor Xu wanted me to marry you, but you are really not my type. Although my words were a bit harsh at the time, it's okay. No one can please everyone."
Xu Xinran listened to Lu Jingshen's nonchalant words, and the expression on her face became even more ferocious. "Haha, you actually think this is nothing? I've been well-behaved and sensible since I was a child. I've tried so hard to be an excellent child, and no one has ever said that to me. Do you know how much your words have hurt me? Do you know that because of these words, I ran away and was almost raped by a gangster outside? Do you know that this incident has been haunting me every night and has made me unrecognizable?"
After hearing this, Lin Xiaoxia understood the whole story. However, she felt no sympathy for Xu Xinran. What did this have to do with Lu Jingshen? Wasn't it just their own fault?
She looked at Xu Xinran and asked, "You have been well-behaved and sensible since childhood, so does Jing Shen have to like you? If you hear these things and feel that they are wrong, you can go in and refute them. You ran away by yourself and were bullied. What does this have to do with Jing Shen? You were an adult by then, right? Doesn't an adult know whether what he does is dangerous? Don't you know that adults are responsible for their own actions?"
Xu Xinran was speechless for a moment after hearing what Lin Xiaoxia said. She couldn't deny that what Lin Xiaoxia said made sense, but how could she control her thoughts at that time? No, it was still because of Lu Jingshen. If it weren't for Lu Jingshen, nothing would have happened afterwards.
Her eyes were filled with resentment again: "I suffered such a great insult, how could I remain calm at that time? If it weren't for what Lu Jingshen said, how could I have been provoked?"
Lin Xiaoxia smiled: "If Professor Xu hadn't told Jingshen to marry you, would Lu Jingshen have said these rejections? Does the whole world have to revolve around your family, and what your family says is what counts? Lu Jingshen relied on his own ability to get into college, not on your family's charity. He respects his teachers because he knows how to be grateful. Would changing his mentor affect Jingshen's future? We have always been repaying your family for taking care of him. Has Lu Jingshen been less polite during the New Year holidays for so many years?"
When Professor Xu heard this, his face was filled with pain and tears came to his eyes. He took off his glasses and wiped away his tears: "It's all my fault. It's my selfishness that has caused so many misunderstandings among you."
After that, he said to Xu Xinran: "Xinran, you only heard what Jing Shen said before. Later, he also said a lot of things for your consideration. He enlightened me that you are very smart and should make your own choices. Jing Shen has always treated you as a sister. You really misunderstood."
Xu Xinran looked at his father and shook his head: "No, even if what you said is true, he hurt me. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be like this today. I will never forgive him."
Lu Jingshen frowned and looked at Xu Xinran: "I don't need your forgiveness, and I won't forgive you. Your previous plan to alienate us would have caused a crack in our marriage if there was even a little bit of distrust between us. Xiaoxia is the most important person to me. I will never forgive you for hurting her."
Professor Xu looked at Lu Jingshen with a face full of self-blame: "Jingshen, I know it's all Xinran's fault, but you also know that it's not easy for me to have a daughter in my old age. It's inevitable that I pamper her more, but she is not a bad person by nature."
When Lin Xiaoxia heard what Professor Xu said, she couldn't help laughing: "Professor Xu, if this is not bad enough? Does it have to be murder and arson? You are also a person with higher education, and your daughter was expelled. She didn't steal the speech manuscript, but replaced it with reactionary remarks. This will put Jing Shen in jail. Isn't this bad enough?"
Professor Xu had to admit that it was true, but that was her daughter, so he said to Lu Jingshen: "Jingshen, I know Xinran really hurt you, but can you give the teacher a favor, and let's just..."
Without waiting for Professor Xu to finish, Lu Jingshen directly refused, "No, Professor Xu, some things have happened and cannot be undone. If we talk about forgiving each other now, it would be too fake. Since we are already like this, don't force yourself to say nice things. You have taken care of me, but Xu Xinran hurt me several times. Let's not owe each other anything in the future."
Xu Xinran looked at Lu Jingshen unwillingly: "Why? Why did you do such a vicious thing, and you still say it makes sense? You and your wife are not good people."
Then he turned to Lin Xiaoxia and said, "Lin Xiaoxia, you saw your husband in the same room with a woman in pajamas, and you pretended to trust him. Are you sick?"
Lin Xiaoxia went over and slapped Xu Xinran twice: "You are the one who is sick. You have paranoid delusions. The whole world wants to harm you."
