In the graduation photo, Du Feng looks quite handsome on his own.
Now, just looking at him makes Mingyao feel like she's swallowed a mouthful of peanut oil.
Only Su Xueya could have such poor taste, actually liking Du Feng and even trying to poach him!
This also shows that Su Xueya and Du Feng are birds of a feather.
The students' smiles froze when they saw Du Feng; none of them had expected him to come.
But since they were already there, the classmates couldn't very well turn down the chance to kick him out.
To ease the awkward atmosphere, Li Haonan tried to lighten the mood by urging Du Feng to sit down.
Mingyao deliberately chose a corner seat, but before she could even settle in, Du Feng sat down next to her.
Mingyao's lips twitched twice, and she subtly moved her body to the side.
She has no connection with Du Feng.
Du Feng kept glancing at Ming Yao's face out of the corner of his eye. Finally, he couldn't hold back any longer, cleared his throat, and asked in a feigned awkward manner, "Are you doing well now?"
"very good."
Mingyao moved to the side again and gave a brief reply.
Du Feng looked at Ming Yao with a hint of surprise in his eyes, and after a moment of stunned silence, he asked, "It's been more than a year since I last saw you, and you've changed a lot."
"It's like I've become a completely different person."
He stared intently at Mingyao's face, his penetrating gaze seeming to see through her features and pierce through her personality.
Mingyao said with a forced smile, "Sorry, that's how I am with people I don't really like."
She glanced at Du Feng, her smile bright, but she exuded a chilling aura that kept people at a distance.
"Xiaoxue, why do I feel like you hate me now?"
Du Feng looked at Ming Yao and asked with a hurt expression.
Mingyao said coldly, "We had such an unpleasant breakup, what kind of expression do you expect me to put on?"
Before Du Feng could say anything more, Ming Yao suddenly stood up.
Talking to Du Feng for even a second would be a waste of her life. Mingyao's time is so precious; she doesn't have time to waste here with Du Feng.
"We have nothing to say."
Just as Mingyao took a step to leave, Du Feng suddenly grabbed her wrist.
He increased the pressure on his hands, and his gaze toward Mingyao became earnest.
"Don't go, listen to me first."
Mingyao felt nauseous. Where did he get the nerve?
She glared at Du Feng, barely suppressing her surging anger, and gritted her teeth, saying, "Let me go!"
The disgust in Mingyao's eyes deeply pierced Du Feng's heart.
"Xiaoxue, can you give me another chance?"
“I’m not the same as before.”
Mingyao: "???"
She looked at Du Feng with suspicion, as if he were an idiot.
"Even if we can't be as close as before, we shouldn't become like strangers."
"Xiaoxue, could you please leave your current contact information?"
Mingyao clenched her fists, wishing she could punch Du Feng right then and there.
Who gave him the nerve to ask for his contact information?
Du Feng's voice was loud enough to attract the attention of his classmates.
They all looked at him, each with a different gaze.
Mingyao and Du Feng suddenly became the target of public criticism.
Mingyao took a deep breath, suppressing her anger, and tried her best to force a feigned look of fear onto her face.
"Du Feng, could you please let me go?"
She bit her lower lip, twisted her wrist a couple of times, and her eyes immediately reddened. "You're hurting me so much."
Du Feng was stunned for a moment, looking at Ming Yao with surprise.
She was just ignoring him and acting so coldly, how come she suddenly became so weak?
"Sorry." Du Feng snapped out of his daze, withdrew his hand, and asked again, undeterred, "Could you give me your contact information?"
"No." Mingyao's voice was soft, but her tone was firm. She covered her reddened wrist and said emphatically, "Du Feng, so much time has passed, why can't you see clearly?"
"We were wrong from the start."
"Even after all this time since graduation, do you still enjoy playing with people's feelings like before?"
As she uttered the words "playing with emotions," Mingyao's tears fell at just the right moment.
Upon hearing this, the female students' gazes towards Du Feng sharpened.
She went straight to Mingyao as soon as she arrived at the class reunion; it's obvious she had ulterior motives!
Being stared at by his classmates and questioned by Mingyao, Du Feng felt a bit embarrassed.
He awkwardly tried to smooth things over, saying, "You misunderstood. I just wanted your contact information."
"What's past is past, and I've already realized my mistakes."
Mingyao turned her head away and wiped away the tears on her face.
She sobbed, "I don't want to have any contact with you anymore."
"Don't ask me for it anymore."
Du Feng persisted, blocking Mingyao's path once more. "Xiaoxue, I just want your contact information. Why are you bringing up the past?"
"Don't tell me you haven't forgotten the past?"
She immediately turned on Mingyao, almost causing Mingyao to lose control of her expression.
I've seen people who lack self-awareness, but I've never seen anyone as lacking in self-awareness as him.
They really know how to save face.
The students once again adopted a gossipy expression, waiting to see what would happen.
Mingyao composed herself, and her eyes became misty again.
She looked at Du Feng with tears welling up in her eyes and asked, "Does not giving you my contact information mean I haven't forgotten the past?"
"Du Feng, I have my own life now, is it wrong for me not to have too much contact with you?"
"Please stop bothering me. It's not easy for classmates to meet, and making things too ugly is not good for either of us."
With just a few words, Mingyao shifted the blame onto Du Feng, subtly accusing him of harassment.
