When Lu Yanli and Jin Yan saw Lu An'an grab a handful of sunflower seeds and squat down to the side, they tacitly went over and shared a handful of seeds with her, then squatted down next to her. Jin Fangguo also wheeled over, grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds, and happily watched Fu Linzhou and Jin Yanli.
Although Lu Mingqian also wanted to join, he had to consider the important cooperation he was about to undertake with Fu Linzhou, so he had to suppress his impulse and maintain his composure and steadiness.
Lu Wenjing maintained his domineering CEO persona and held back, while Lu Minghuai and Lu Mingxu had no such inhibitions. Seeing that everyone else had joined the sunflower seed-eating craze, they happily went over and squatted down, ready to listen to the story.
Fu Zhiyan rubbed his temples again. He suddenly felt that bringing so many people over was not a good idea; it had turned into his parents' gossip session.
Zhou Fang didn't have the energy to care about those who wanted to gossip; all his thoughts were on Bai Xuxu's question, "Why don't you like him?"
His voice, slightly hoarse from suppressed emotions, carried a barely perceptible hint of bitterness and resentment: "Why?"
Bai Xuxu's eyes were cold. "We grew up together. Ever since you entered puberty, you have always shown an unacceptable possessiveness towards me. Whenever any member of the opposite sex appears around me, you will try to drive them away. When I was in school, you dealt with all the love letters I received before they even reached my hands. You even forced a boy in high school to transfer schools because he was too enthusiastic in pursuing me."
Zhou Fang retorted, "That's because I like you, so I can't stand those rivals. Did I do anything wrong?"
Bai Xuxu sneered, her tone mocking: "Like? Just because you like someone means you can disregard my wishes and make decisions for others on my behalf? Zhou Fang, when you handled these matters, your reason was that it would affect my studies, and for my future, you resolved them for me as a friend." She emphasized the last sentence.
Lu An'an cracked sunflower seeds, inwardly complaining.
[This is typical of the obsessive and foolish second male lead in novels. He thinks he can move the person he likes by doing this, but in the end, he not only causes trouble for the person he likes, but also hurts innocent people.]
Her disgusted gaze drifted to Zhou Fang.
[A real-life yandere, huh? What, "You can only have me by your side, and anyone else will die?" Ugh, how perverted. No wonder Aunt Bai doesn't like him. If it were me, I'd kick him two miles away.]
Lu Yanli nodded inwardly. His sister was right. If you encounter a yandere in real life, you really have to run far away. That's not love, that's mental illness!
Zhou Fang's face gradually turned pale. His words lingered in his throat for a long time before he finally said, "I... I was just feeling frustrated and resentful because I was rejected after that confession. I thought that by being by your side as a friend and clearing away those obstacles, I could let you see my sincerity and my efforts."
Bai Xuxu smiled cruelly: "But I don't like you, Zhou Fang. Every time you get involved, I feel not safety, but constraint, the fear of losing my own boundaries."
Zhou Fang's body trembled slightly. He had not expected that his actions would be so heavy and unbearable in her eyes. He tried to explain, but found that his words seemed so pale and powerless at this moment.
There was no sign of backing down in Bai Xuxu's eyes. She slowly lifted the veil of the past, exposing all the cruel truths: "Zhou Fang, you just said that A Zhou took advantage of you while you were abroad? Actually, that's not true. I've liked A Zhou for a long time. In order to be with him, I personally planned the whole thing so that Uncle Zhou would arrange for you to study abroad."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Fang's eyes widened in shock, a bitter disbelief welling up inside him. His voice trembled, barely able to form a coherent sentence: "So, that bastard at the party who harassed you, it was you..."
Bai Xuxu's lips curled slightly: "Yes, I know you too well. You don't even allow any men to be around me. If something like that happened, you would definitely lose control, and that's exactly what I need. Only then will you go to great lengths for me, and only then can I tell Uncle Zhou about it, forcing you to leave. That way, I can be with A-Zhou."
Lu An'an was so surprised that she dropped the melon seeds on the ground.
[Oh my god, I thought it was a story about a possessive and obsessive second male lead who deeply redeems the delicate and innocent female lead, but it turns out to be a story about a scheming and domineering woman, a weak and useless male lead, and a possessive and obsessive villain!]
[Aunt Bai is awesome!]
Fu Zhiyan: ...He actually thinks An'an's description is accurate. Hearing his mother say that, his father seems really useless? Not only is he useless, but he's also treated this person as a good brother for so many years. It's really... speechless.
He glanced at his father with disdain. He was useless; his mother had to carry the burden for him.
Fu Linzhou: (?˙▽˙?) Why does his son dislike him?
Zhou Fang's heart was struck hard by the cruel truth, the pain so intense that it felt as if every inch of her skin was pressed against a sharp blade, and every breath felt like a slow, agonizing torture of her soul.
He never expected that Xuxu would devise such a resolute scheme for Fu Linzhou, willing to gamble with her own reputation and innocence, just to keep him away from her world.
He laughed self-deprecatingly, then laughed louder and louder, "Hahaha, Bai Xuxu, you really have a cruel heart."
Bai Xuxu's expression remained unchanged. "Ruthless? No, I don't think I'm ruthless enough. If I had known that you became sworn brothers with Azhou after my marriage in order to one day take me away and imprison me, I should have had someone completely cut off your hopes when you went abroad."
His body tensed involuntarily, and the bitter smile on his lips looked especially bitter: "Do you hate me that much?"
