Fu Tingshen clenched the letter and crumpled it into his hand little by little.
Why should I fawn over Ye Zhiyu? Am I your son or your tool?
His increasingly heavy breathing revealed his unease.
Li Xi watched him intently from a short distance away. It seemed that the letter didn't contain any good news.
"That's definitely not good news. The Fu family is making Fu Tingshen break up with you and get back Ye Zhiyu. Then you'll be out of the picture."
The system's voice suddenly appeared in Li Xi's mind.
She was overjoyed. "System, you finally spoke! What's been going on with you all this time?"
"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. Your most important task right now is to keep an eye on Fu Tingshen, understand?"
The system seemed very impatient with her question; if it hadn't been left out, it wouldn't have chosen this thing.
Li Xi had become accustomed to the system's attitude; as long as it allowed her to fulfill her wish, she was willing to do anything.
“I will, Fu Tingshen, I am determined to get it.”
Ye Zhiyu, I originally wanted to let you go, but your existence is an obstacle for me.
I absolutely do not want to end up like I did in my previous life, so... you'd better go to hell.
Ye Zhiyu came over in the afternoon to record her work points, and then she saw that both of them looked at each other like enemies.
Ye Zhiyu frowned. "What a lunatic."
No, I need to get away from those two lumps; they're scary.
However, you can dodge the first day of the month, but you can't dodge the fifteenth.
He was stopped by Fu Tingshen as soon as he returned to the educated youth settlement.
"Ye Zhiyu, I thought you were just being willful before, I never expected you to be so vicious."
Ye Zhiyu closed her eyes, "Don't be angry, don't be angry. Getting angry will make you sick, and no one can take your place."
"Fu Tingshen, you'd better have a good reason today, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to control my hands again."
Upon hearing this, Fu Tingshen subconsciously took a step back, his face slightly stinging.
He still vividly remembered the slaps Ye Zhiyu had given him before.
Liu Shengnan and the others are no longer going up, because Ye Zhiyu can handle it perfectly well, and their presence might even affect her performance, so it's better to just watch.
Ye Zhiyu gave a disdainful snort.
Fu Tingshen was furious: "You sent your aunt to my mother's office to humiliate her, what right do you have? So what if I rejected you? If you have a problem with me, come at me instead of making things difficult for my mother."
Li Xi's eyes flickered, she stepped forward and said softly, "Ye Zhiqing, this is not right of you. I know you are very angry that Brother Tingshen did not choose you, but you should not involve Auntie. She was so good to you before."
Ye Zhiyu didn't want to pay attention to her, but paused when she glanced at her.
Wow, this system is pretty resilient.
The system hidden in Li Xi's heart subconsciously shrank back.
What's wrong with Ye Zhiyu? Why does she always give me such a bad feeling?
Ye Zhiyu remained silent, leading Fu Tingshen to assume she was feeling guilty.
"Ye Zhiyu, go to town tomorrow and call your aunt. Tell her to apologize to my mother in front of the whole office."
There was a person barking like a dog next to me, it was really noisy.
Ye Zhiyu looked at Fu Tingshen with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot: "I think you really have an underdeveloped cerebellum and an underdeveloped brain. Why should my aunt apologize to your mother?"
Your mother's face is a face, but my aunt's is just a wall? Besides, is it true that your mother said my aunt humiliated her? Your family is always distorting the truth, and I don't believe a single word of it.
Tomorrow I'm going to make a phone call, not to apologize to you, but to praise my aunt. Well done! Your family is two-faced; do you think they don't know?
Fu Tingshen trembled with anger: "Ye Zhiyu, don't make false accusations. When has my family ever wronged you? It's just that I didn't want to please you, that's all."
"Fu Tingshen!!!"
Ye Zhiyu's lips curled up, her eyes filled with contempt: "What nonsense are you spouting? Pretending not to know is pointless. You know perfectly well how much your family has benefited from clinging to me. Don't force me to spell it out. My aunt, let alone humiliating your mother, even if she beats her, she'll have to endure it and smile, saying 'Good riddance,' understand?"
Fu Tingshen was panting heavily, looking at the person in front of him with eyes full of disgust.
The person who used to have eyes for him is gone. He realized that he used to like Ye Zhiyu.
After all, she was so beautiful, and she was completely devoted to him.
But when did it change? Oh, right, it was when their parents discovered the connection between them.
They told him he had to make the most of Ye Zhiyu, flatter her, and serve her.
Serving? What a ridiculous word.
From that moment on, he began to loathe Ye Zhiyu and wished she would disappear forever.
Ye Zhiyu continued, "Before, my family tolerated your family in every way because they knew I liked you. What, you can't stand it now that it's only just begun? If you can't stand it, then you have to. After all, my family suffered a lot of grievances because of my blindness and lack of understanding."
Li Xi frowned slightly and helped Fu Tingshen, who was unable to stand, up: "Ye Zhiqing, if you have any problems, come at me. Don't make things difficult for Brother Tingshen."
Ye Zhiyu's lips curled into a wicked smile, "You should worry about yourself first. I bet that letter also mentions your outcome. Do you think Aunt Fu will accept you? Or..."
Li Xi already knew the contents of the letter from the system and had a plan, but she had to pretend she didn't know.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her hand supporting Fu Tingshen slowly tightened. "This is our matter, so you don't need to worry about it."
Ye Zhiyu raised an eyebrow; it seemed she had a solution.
"Really? I'll be waiting to see. Don't forget to invite me to your wedding candy."
After saying that, she went back to the house with Liu Shengnan and the others to chat.
Fu Tingshen dared not look at Li Xi's face.
Li Xi forced a smile. "Brother Ting Shen, shall we talk at the secret base?"
Fu Tingshen nodded stiffly.
Upon arriving at the secret base, before he could even speak, Li Xi gave him a tight hug.
Fu Tingshen's hands remained suspended in mid-air, not falling for a long time.
He heard Li Xi crying in his arms: "Brother Ting Shen, don't push me away, let me hug you, I can't bear to part with you."
Fu Ting loved this taste so much that his heart softened instantly, and he gently wrapped his arms around her.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoxi, I..."
He had barely opened his mouth when Li Xi covered it, her face streaked with tears.
"I know, Brother Ting Shen, I know. Please, don't tell anyone. Let me spend one last moment with you."
I know my background is not as good as Zhiyu's, so it's normal that Aunt doesn't like me. We are from two different worlds. This period of time was stolen by me. Without me, you and Zhiyu would definitely be happy, and Aunt and Uncle would be very satisfied.
It's all my fault. I couldn't control myself and fell in love with you. I'm content just being with you. Brother Ting Shen, please don't forget me, okay?
Fu Tingshen tenderly wiped away her tears, his brows furrowing deeply.
Does he have to be controlled by his parents for the rest of his life and do things he doesn't want to do?
