Luo Li was very excited and talked about his past and what happened with Ji Jianhua.
"Your eldest brother doesn't have much education, he has little knowledge but his mind is as high as the sky. When I'm with him, he never knows what I'm thinking. The thing he asks me the most is whether I've eaten. I'm not a child who can't even remember to eat."
"It's all thanks to you that he was able to open his factory. Without you and your in-laws, he would now be just a driver for a repair shop."
"Wei Kun is humorous and funny. Even if he was just joking about feelings, the days I spent with him were better than the one year I spent with your eldest brother."
Ji Ling smiled and nodded, "I don't deny your idea. It's normal for a man and a woman to break up if they are not suitable for each other. But you are hooking up with Wei Kun while hanging out with my eldest brother. Isn't that embarrassing?"
Luo Li pursed his lips, "I thought some things didn't need to be said too clearly, your elder brother would understand. Afterwards, at home, your elder brother was still like when we were dating. If he knew, why didn't he tell me earlier? In the end, he married Wang Sanmei, wasn't it just to get revenge on me? Being a man is so narrow-minded. Now I'm glad that I made the choice I did."
"If that's the case, why did you come to me?" Ji Ling smiled, "Are you unable to let go? Or are you unwilling to give up?"
Luo Li slowly calmed down, "You're right. If I came to you because of what I was thinking, you would think I was unwilling and couldn't let go."
"That's good. My elder brother is bad in every way in your eyes, and I hope you won't have too much contact with him in the future. He has a family and a wife now, and you've been with him before. If his wife misunderstands, it won't be good." Ji Ling paused, "By the way, my elder brother married Sanmei not to get revenge on you. In fact, he knew Sanmei liked him when he was a child, but he always thought it was just a child's love. Later, when he grew up, he found that Sanmei was not the same as when she was a child, so he started dating you. Thanks to your attraction to Wei Kun, my elder brother found that Sanmei had always had him in her heart, and the two of them were able to be together."
The smile on Ji Ling's face deepened. "They are childhood sweethearts. Don't insult their feelings by using the word revenge."
Seeing Luo Li’s broken face, the bell for the end of get out of class rang behind him.
At the same time, students also came out of the teaching building one after another. Standing in the crowd, Luo Li saw Ji Ling leaving like a winner, while she was like falling into the deep sea.
My head is buzzing.
He didn't even notice that someone was pulling him away until everything around him became quiet, with only the swaying of willow branches and the breeze caressing his cheeks. Only then did Luo Li's thoughts, which had been torn away from his body, return to his body.
"Are you okay?"
Luo Li looked at the girl in front of him, opened his mouth, and said in a dry voice, "I'm fine."
"I'm glad you're okay. You don't look like a student. Are you here to look for someone?"
Luo Li shook his head and was about to speak when he heard a man's voice, "Xiuzhi."
As the voice fell, Wu Jian had already walked in front of the two of them.
Guan Xiuzhi frowned when she saw Wu Jian, "Why are you here?"
Wu Jian didn't reply to her question, his eyes fixed on Luo Li, "Your friend?"
Guan Xiuzhi didn't want to talk to Wu Jian any more, so she just responded randomly and called out to Luo Li, "Let's go do our business first."
Wu Jian glanced at Luo Li for a moment before looking at Guan Xiuzhi, "Where are you going? I have nothing to do, so I'll go with you."
Guan Xiuzhi wanted to send Wu Jian away immediately, so she had a bad idea, "Let's go eat? You want to treat us? But we're going to eat roast duck."
"Okay. Let's go. I'll treat you." Wu Jianying said straightforwardly.
Guan Xiuzhi's expression changed. She wanted to make things difficult for the other party so that he would give up, but she didn't expect Wu Jian to agree.
But she clearly heard from Wei Xin that Professor Wu had been punished by the school because he had privately made things difficult for Ji Ling, and the incident was caused by Wu Jian, so the Wu family cut off Wu Jian's source of income.
This is also why Guan Xiuzhi just said to go eat Peking duck.
"Let's go." Wu Jian came up and asked, "What's your friend's name?"
She was a thoughtful woman and saw that the woman didn't want to get entangled with the man. Thinking that it was the woman who pulled her through the crowd just now, she also helped her out of kindness.
"Will you come with me?"
Guan Xiuzhi's eyes lit up, "Alright, I'll accompany you to do the work first."
Then, he naturally took Luo Li's arm and waved to Wu Jian, "Uncle, let's go do some work first and make an appointment another day."
Afraid that Wu Jian would catch up if they walked too slowly, Guan Xiuzhi almost trotted Luo Li to the school gate. The two of them walked so fast that they passed by Ji Ling without noticing. When they reached the gate, Guan Xiuzhi looked back and saw that Wu Jian had not caught up, so she let go of Luo Li's hand.
"Thank you." Guan Xiuzhi felt relieved and thanked Luo Li. She introduced herself and said her name, "What's your name?"
"Luo Li."
"I'm a junior here, majoring in Chinese. How about you?"
“I’m from North County.”
Guan Xiuzhi's eyes widened in surprise. "From Bei County? Do you know Ji Ling?"
Luo Li nodded, "The factory opened by her eldest brother is next to my family's factory."
"Her family runs a factory? What kind of factory?" Guan Xiuzhi immediately became interested in it because it was related to Ji Ling. "It's already noon. You helped me a lot today. I'll treat you to a meal."
"Need not."
"Let's go. My cousin is also from your Bei County. It's fate that we meet here." Without further ado, Guan Xiuzhi pulled Luo Li to a restaurant nearby.
After the meal, Guan Xiuzhi inquired about Ji Ling's family situation. "I didn't expect the Ji family to have such a big business. They produce soap, shampoo, and perfume. They are so powerful."
Luo Li could see that the other party had no good feelings towards Ji Ling. Even though she didn't like Ji Ling in her heart and was even jealous of her, she didn't want to reveal her inner thoughts in front of strangers.
After dinner, when the two separated, Guan Xiuzhi and Luo Li left each other their phone numbers.
Guan Xiuzhi gained a lot, "Call me when you are free."
After the two separated, Guan Xiuzhi went to find Wei Xin. Wei Xin had just returned to the dormitory and saw her calling him to go out in a mysterious manner.
"What's up?"
"I just met a girl on campus. Her family is a neighbor of Ji Ling's. It's Ji Ling's hometown."
Wei Xin looked at her.
Guan Xiuzhi said, "Ji Ling's family runs a factory and produces soap, shampoo, and perfume. Do you think this business was built on the back of the Zhu family?"
"Who knows?" Wei Xin thought it was something else and lost interest. "She married into the Zhu family to rely on the Zhu family, didn't she?"
"I didn't tell you that my uncle also wants to open a factory like this, and he has already found a partner in the south."
