Chapter 174 Actually, I Have an Apartment
Now he's alive and well, and he knows what he should fight for and what he should distance himself from and not care about. But it's as if fate is playing a joke on him.
What he wanted to fight for, he couldn't get.
He wanted to be indifferent, yet he always found himself unconsciously reminiscing.
Song Heng felt incredibly pathetic.
Suddenly another girl called out, "Song Heng!"
Song Zhu ran over, frowned, glanced at Song Heng, and then looked at Tang Susu.
Tang Susu said without any guilt, "I just told him again not to come looking for me. Miss Song, if you still have any complaints, please talk to your brother and don't come looking for me anymore."
After saying those words, Tang Susu turned and walked back without looking back. Her heart was pounding, and at that moment, she felt incredibly cool.
Song Zhu didn't even glance at Tang Susu. She glared at Song Heng with exasperation and said, "Why are you looking for her again! Didn't I tell you not to look for her? Even if you want to anger Xia Zhen, this isn't the way to do it!"
Song Heng asked, "Do you think I sought out Tang Susu to spite Xia Zhen?"
“Isn’t that right?” Song Zhu retorted, and then said, “I’ve looked into it. Tang Susu said she likes Mu Zhijing, but there are other boys pursuing her in college. She even went to bars with several people, and some of them were pursuing her. In my opinion, she’s someone who doesn’t know how to draw lines at all. You could never like her type.”
Song Heng smiled. "Then what type do you think I should like?"
Song Zhu didn't hesitate. "Someone like Xia Zhen is bold in love and hate, and very decisive in matters of the heart."
Song Heng lowered his eyes slightly. "Impossible."
Why is it impossible?
"I could never fall for a girl who would abandon me when I'm down on my luck."
He used the word "again," which is quite intriguing.
Song Zhu looked puzzled. "Song Heng, are you stupid? How could Xia Zhen be that kind of person?"
Song Heng twitched the corner of his mouth, not without sarcasm, "I also think it doesn't seem like it."
It just doesn't look like it.
Song Zhu said, "I investigated Xia Zhen and Lu Jin's relationship a long time ago. Before Lu Jin was the young master of the Lu family, he was just a person who was not loved by his parents and had a disability. He had no money and no status. Everyone said that he was aloof. But even so, Xia Zhen was with him. If Xia Zhen was really the kind of person you described, how could she be with Lu Jin?"
A strange emotion welled up in Song Heng's chest. He didn't know what this emotion was, but he had a feeling that if it were to spill out, it would tear a hole in his heart.
He suppressed his emotions and forced a stiff smile, saying, "Who knows if she wasn't just playing around with him at first, but only started acting for real after she found out Lu Jin's identity?"
"Song Heng, are you crazy?!" Song Zhu was utterly astonished. It was as if she was seeing her brother for the first time; she simply couldn't understand it. "You've known Xia Zhen for so many years, don't you know what kind of person she is? In your mouth, you belittle her so much. Is it because you really hate her, or do you just want to keep emphasizing this point to give your own wrong ideas a strong sense of support?"
Song Heng opened his mouth, but no sound came out. He lowered his eyes and couldn't utter a single word.
Song Zhu was truly angered by him. "Weren't you two fine before I went abroad? How come your relationship became so strained as soon as I came back? Do you have some misunderstanding about Xia Zhen? If you do, have you asked her about it?"
Song Heng's hands, hanging at his sides, clenched slightly. He said, "No need to ask."
"Is it that you don't need to ask, or that you're afraid to ask?" Song Zhu stared at Song Heng, suddenly feeling powerless. "But it doesn't matter anymore. Even if you want to ask something, it's too late. I'll just say one thing: don't come crying to me if you regret it later."
Song Zhu didn't want to look at Song Heng anymore, and she left without waiting for him.
The night wind turned cold at the end of September, and every swaying shadow of the trees seemed to be tinged with chill.
The lone boy stood there for a long time, then habitually lit a cigarette.
In this gloomy world, the only glimmer of light seemed to be the tiny spark on that cigarette, as desolate and terrifying as everyone else.
Ruan Mianmian hadn't found a suitable opportunity to go out. When she saw Song Heng like this, she couldn't help but recall how Song Heng had walked into the traffic back then. It was Tang Susu who had stopped Song Heng first; otherwise, Song Heng would probably be her boyfriend by now.
Ruan Mianmian asked worriedly, "System, is he going to do something reckless again?"
Approximately thirty seconds later, the system responded sluggishly: [It cannot be ruled out that the target has self-destructive tendencies.]
Song Heng appears strong, but he is actually extremely vulnerable. When he realizes that he can't hold onto anything and has nothing, he is very likely to go to extremes.
Ruan Mianmian should be worried, but she inexplicably felt a sense of anticipation. In her previous life, Tang Susu had accidentally saved Song Heng, so this time it was her turn.
Yes, she will be Song Heng's salvation.
I should go back to school on Sunday afternoon.
Xia Zhen and Lu Jin didn't have their parents send them off. Sometimes they would buy tickets together and take the bus to school, which was a very interesting experience.
However, Xia Zhen, who had promised not to stay up late, stayed up late again last night and is now dozing off against Lu Jin.
Given that it was her birthday yesterday and she had stayed out late, Lu Jin didn't say anything to her. When they were almost at the station, he woke her up.
Xia Zhen, half-closing her eyes in sleepiness, lay on him, unwilling to get up. "So sleepy, I want to sleep."
Lu Jin smoothed her hair. "Go back to your dorm and sleep."
Xia Zhen sighed, "There's a K-pop fan in the dorm who watches her idol's dance videos every day, a game addict, and a loud, chuunibyou girl. It's not bedtime yet, so it's a bit difficult to get them to be quiet."
Besides, she felt bad asking the other three to keep quiet just because she was alone.
Lu Jin's hand unconsciously went to his pocket, where he had pressed the key into shape. He pursed his lips slightly and said, "Zhenzhen."
She listlessly raised her eyes. "Hmm?"
"actually……"
"actually?"
It was something he couldn't bring himself to say, and he didn't understand exactly why it was so difficult to say. He didn't have any other plans, but every word he uttered was especially hard when facing the girl.
Lu Jin paused for a moment, then said dryly, "I have an apartment; I can take you there to rest."
Xia Zhen sat up straight and looked at him with a serious expression.
Lu Jin: "Don't overthink it. I just want you to get a good night's sleep. Once you've rested, I'll go back to school with you."
Xia Zhen narrowed her eyes.
His heart was pounding. "Really, I won't do anything to you."
Xia Zhen replied expressionlessly, "Oh."
Lu Jin's heart was in turmoil because of her attitude. He didn't know whether he had been too abrupt or was overthinking things.
What he didn't know was that beneath Xia Zhen's calm exterior, she was frantically plotting her own scheme.
That's ridiculous.
When a man and a woman are alone in a room, how could they not do something?
When the time comes, she doesn't believe that this innocent little rabbit can resist her stunning beauty.
hey-hey……
Lu Jin: "Zhenzhen."
Xia Zhen: "Huh?"
Lu Jin: "Did you just laugh?"
Xia Zhen blinked innocently, "No."
