Pei Tingyu just smiled indifferently in response to Qin Lingxiao's sincere apology.
Just as he was about to take out his cigarette case, Qin Lingxiao handed him one.
He took it, lit it, lowered his eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled smoke rings.
"Want to talk?" Pei Tingyu asked.
"Yeah." Qin Lingxiao nodded.
The two had known each other for many years and had a basic understanding. They arrived at the center of the dim training ground one after the other.
Qin Lingxiao spoke first, "You're very close to Si Yang. Do you also think I'm biased and not a good brother?"
Pei Tingyu remained noncommittal. "Just keep it in mind."
Qin Lingxiao couldn't hide his frustrated look. "Actually, Si Yang is right. I don't understand her at all. I don't even understand Zhenzhen. I've watched Zhenzhen grow up since she was a child. I really can't accept how she could become like this."
Pei Tingyu chuckled playfully, "Maybe she hasn't changed at all, but you've been blinded and can't judge her well."
"You seem to see it very clearly?" Qin Lingxiao laughed bitterly at himself.
Pei Tingyu said mercilessly, "You are blind, but I am not."
"Maybe! As a bystander, you should be more clear-headed than me. So what kind of person do you think Si Yang is? I really want to see through her, but it's too difficult."
"Then try to put aside your preference for Qin Zhenzhen and your prejudice against Qin Siyang, and leave the rest to time." Pei Tingyu said and left with his long legs.
After the field training, he felt inexplicably tired these days and wanted to have a good sleep.
Qin Lingxiao stood alone in the night, his mind full of complicated thoughts.
Favoritism? Prejudice?
Pei Tingyu was right, it was time for him to treat them differently.
Si Yang heard the news that Qiao Zhenggang could not be saved from death from Pei Tingyu after morning exercises the next day.
Qiao's parents fainted on the train after losing their only son.
The accomplice who attacked Si Yang with Qiao Zhenggang was an accomplice purely for money and has been put in detention and sentenced to at least two years.
Compared to Qiao Zhenggang's ending, Si Yang cares more about Qin Zhenzhen's fate.
I wonder how long Qin Lingxiao's neglect of Qin Zhenzhen will last after such a scandal?
In the cafeteria, Qin Zhenzhen was having breakfast with Bai Tian and several other roommates who were still unaware of the truth when they saw Qin Lingxiao's outstanding figure come in.
"Zhenzhen, your brother is here."
Bai Tian was sitting in a direction where she could see the cafeteria door, and her eyes lit up as soon as she saw Qin Lingxiao.
But just when she was about to move aside to make room for Qin Lingxiao, she saw that Qin Lingxiao simply ignored them and walked straight towards where Si Yang was.
"We are..." Bai Tian wanted to wave to remind Qin Lingxiao, but he had already pulled the chair next to Si Yang and sat down.
"Zhenzhen, what's going on? Why did Captain Qin go to Qin Siyang's place?" Bai Tian then realized that Qin Zhenzhen's expression was not right.
Qin Zhenzhen was about to cry, "We had a fight."
"Fight? What's it about?" Bai Tian and others knew nothing about Qin Zhenzhen and Qiao Zhenggang, because Qin Lingxiao blocked all news that was detrimental to Qin Zhenzhen's reputation.
He was even negotiating with his superiors to replace Qin Zhenzhen's criticism meeting with other punishments, such as doing hard labor in a coal mine, or sending her to open up wasteland in the spring.
This was the last kindness he, as her brother, could show her.
But Qin Zhenzhen knew very well that no matter how tightly she kept the secret, it would eventually leak out.
So instead of waiting for the day when the truth breaks her down, it is better to start planning and laying the groundwork now.
"Because...my sister said that I was the one who ordered Qiao Zhenggang to get her injured. I had no idea that Qiao Zhenggang liked me and would go crazy for me." Qin Zhenzhen's eyes were filled with tears, and her appearance of wanting to cry but not being able to make people feel distressed.
"Qiao Zhenggang likes you?" Bai Tian lowered her voice, looking surprised.
