Last time, I said I was embarrassed to bring people with me when I was invited for the first time. But now it’s the second time. I was given snacks and was stopped from going because of favors. It was intentional! Too much! It’s a pity that they are friends who have grown up together.

Jiang Xiuzhen angrily rushed over to question Dou Nannan, but was blocked by the driver's hand, because Dou Nannan had already sat in the driver's seat and closed the door, and was about to start the car. The driver was not very reassured and did not let her get closer for fear of bumping into Jiang Xiuzhen.

Jiang Xiuzhen shouted "Nannan" and kept extending her hand, but Dou Nannan seemed not to see her and stepped on the accelerator and left.

Jiang Xiuzhen's face turned pale and blue. She didn't expect Dou Nannan to not give her any face at all. She stood there angrily for a long time, and only left when the driver had to clean the garage.

When they arrived at the bus stop, a bus just stopped. Jiang Xiuzhen, who was in a very bad mood, didn't even look at it and jumped on it.

The car stopped and started for several stops before Jiang Xiuzhen gradually calmed down. She turned her head to look out the window and discovered that she had taken the wrong bus and was heading in the opposite direction of her home. She felt annoyed again.

But she soon stopped being annoyed. She saw two acquaintances walking on the street, and there was another person following not far behind them. It was obvious that the two people in front really disliked the one behind them. They walked a few steps and then stopped, as if scolding the person behind them and not letting her follow them.

Jiang Xiuzhen knew all three of these people. The ones walking in front were Yan Baozhi and Xia Moli. They were in the same circle and could be seen often. The one behind was just an ordinary female student from Peking University. Her surname seemed to be Liu or Feng. She was selected and recommended from other provinces. After graduation, she would be assigned back to her hometown and did not belong to the Beijing circle.

Jiang Xiuzhen knew her because this woman used to follow Meng Wenlan around like a servant girl, doing whatever she was told to do and seemed very obedient and well behaved. Meng Wenlan also asked this woman to run errands for Jiang Xiuzhen, and she performed well, so Jiang Xiuzhen had an impression of her.

How did these three get mixed up together? Could it be... Thinking of the legend about Meng Wenlan, Jiang Xiuzhen suddenly became curious.

At this time, Yan Baozhi and Xia Moli stood behind a large propaganda poster on the street, looking back at Feng Liuyun who was following them closely. Xia Moli had a blank expression and helpless eyes. Yan Baozhi said impatiently: "Stop following us, okay? It's boring."

Seeing that the two of them were willing to pay attention to her again, Feng Liuyun hurriedly stepped forward, wrung her hands, and said to Xia Moli with red eyes: "Please, let me go back with you. I can wait outside the door and not go in. I just want to meet Teacher Xia and ask him a question... We have been together for so long, and we have a deep affection for each other. Even if we have to separate, we should give each other an explanation, right?"

Xia Moli: "There's really no need to meet. My brother asked me to return your letters and notes, which already showed his feelings. Those letters were the ones you put in the books you borrowed for him. Didn't you notice? All the sealed letters were basically not opened, because my brother just let you take the books you borrowed and returned and put them back on the bookshelf by yourself. He didn't check them afterwards, so he didn't find your letter. I had to look up the information before I saw it.

At that time, my brother had already started a new job. I told him about it on the phone. He asked me to return it to you personally and not to pass it on to anyone else, so as to avoid it being seen and having a bad impact on you.

My brother asked me to convey his meaning. You heard it all. He doesn't want to date you. You should wake up and don't delay yourself. "

Yan Baozhi sneered: "You mean you are in love with each other? If you really love him, he would be unable to resist writing to you even if you don't write him a letter or leave a note."

"But he invited me to dinner, and we went on dates to take walks and talk about life, poetry and songs. We have many common interests and hobbies, and we can talk about everything we know!"

"We just happened to meet at lunchtime. It's normal for teachers to invite students to eat together. You have to eat anyway. As for poetry and songs, they are the interests of many people. When discussing them, of course you should speak freely and without reservation. If you don't have your own opinions and views, your teacher who is willing to guide you will be very disappointed."

“…”

Feng Liuyun pursed her lips, tears streaming down her cheeks: "I didn't lie to you. Teacher Xia and I...we are really very good! If you don't believe what I say alone, you can take me to see Teacher Xia and let him tell you in person."

"Then why didn't he read your love letter? And why did he ask Jasmine to return it to you?"

"Really? Then why didn't he write back to you after he read it?"

"Because... in fact, we met every morning and evening at that time. He didn't need to write to me. We just talked about it directly when we met."

"Oh, you haven't explained why he returned your letters? He has been transferred, but you are still studying in this school. He knows your address very well. If he is really in love with you, why didn't he send you a single letter after he left? Why did he keep you looking for him and worrying about him?"

"I……"

Yan Baozhi sneered: "Could it be that your teacher Xia has changed his mind? Maybe he has a new partner? If so, I advise you to turn back as soon as possible and don't delay yourself."

"Teacher Xia won't do that! He only likes me!"

Feng Liuyun cried out this sentence, and then ignored Yan Baozhi, only looking at Xia Moli pleadingly: "Please help me, let me meet your brother, I, I will really be your sister-in-law in the future, I will definitely treat you well!"

Xia Moli: “…”

Yan Baozhi was angry: I have never seen such a person in my life, the thickness of his face is comparable to that of an old city wall.

She took Xia Moli's arm and said, "I think I know. Your brother will never be attracted to this person. We don't need to hide around for her. It's not worth it. We don't have the time to accompany her. Just go home. If she wants to follow us, she can follow us. Just remember to tell the guard not to let her in."

Feng Liuyun looked at Yan Baozhi unconvinced: "Why do you say that? You don't understand the situation between me and Teacher Xia at all."

Yan Baozhi: "I don't know you, but I know Xia Yufeng and what kind of person he is."

Feng Liuyun: “…”

Her eyes were as red as a rabbit's, with tears swirling in her eye sockets, making her look very pitiful.

Xia Moli finally softened her heart and kindly advised, "Don't follow me. Even if you get to my door, you can't get in, let alone see my brother, because he has returned to work. I can tell you that my brother is really dating someone now. It was arranged by the elders of the family. The two families know each other well, and my future sister-in-law is a very good person."

After saying that, Xia Moli and Yan Baozhi left together.

When Feng Liuyun heard Xia Moli say that Xia Yufeng was dating someone, her mind went blank and it took her a while to come back to her senses. She looked at the two of them and saw that they didn't know which road to turn and go. She suddenly became anxious and sad. She covered her face and cried. She wanted to go forward to follow them, but someone grabbed her clothes from behind.
