"I lived in the educated youth dormitory. I never got along with Liu Liwen and the others, and we couldn't really get along."
"The reason they deliberately picked on you today and made things difficult for you was, in the final analysis, because my relationship with them was already difficult. They wanted to use you to cause trouble for me and embarrass me."
Lin Jianxue's tone was very calm, as if he was stating a very simple fact.
"So, silly girl, you just happened to be implicated by me, understand?"
Fu Qingqing moved her lips, but there was still a hint of doubt on her face.
"Really...really?"
"Of course it's true." Lin Jianxue nodded, her clear eyes looking into Fu Qingqing's, her tone very firm.
She lowered her eyes slightly, her long eyelashes casting a small shadow under her eyelids, and there seemed to be a barely perceptible hint of loneliness in her voice.
That expression seemed like he was talking to himself, but also like he was speaking specifically to Fu Qingqing.
"Think about it, I wasn't very sociable in the educated youth dormitory, was I?"
"There are so many of them living together, and if I live alone for a long time, I will definitely be excluded."
"Even if I hadn't gotten horny with you today, I'd already planned to move out once I found a suitable place."
She sighed softly, and her eyes, which were always clear and cold, now seemed to be tinged with a hint of fragility that was difficult for others to detect.
"That feeling of being isolated and excluded by everyone, whether intentionally or unintentionally, is really uncomfortable, right?"
Fu Qingqing's heart felt as if it was suddenly tugged by an invisible hand.
Feeling excluded...
How could she not understand? She understood it so well!
Ever since she left home, her whole family was exiled to this remote Tonghua Village. Wherever she and her brother Fu Zhewei went, people would point at them and talk about them like monsters.
The ignorant half-grown children in the village would secretly throw pebbles at them, cursing them as "children of the five black categories" in dirty words.
When the adults saw their family, they would always take a detour from a distance, as if they were afraid of being contaminated by some bad luck.
When she was in school in the city, she had made friends, but now, after coming here, no one of her age was willing to talk to her, let alone play with her.
Thinking of Sister Xiaoxue, who was as beautiful and charming as Lin Jianxue, and who might be experiencing a similar situation in the educated youth dormitory, Fu Qingqing's eyes suddenly turned red.
The previous hesitation and worry caused by the poor conditions of his family were instantly replaced by a strong sympathy and the urge to protect the other party.
"Sister Xiaoxue!"
Fu Qingqing suddenly stretched out her hands and tightly grasped Lin Jianxue's slightly cold hand.
"Then come live with us! You must come live with us!"
"Even though our family is a little broke, it's just me, my brother, and my mom. We won't exclude you! Absolutely not!"
The little girl raised her face, her eyes eager and sincere, as if she was afraid that Lin Jianxue would regret it the next second.
"Don't worry, when I get back I'll have my mom clean up the brightest and cleanest room in the house for you to live in!"
Lin Jianxue looked at her eager yet sincere and adorable appearance, and finally a barely perceptible, faint smile appeared in her cold eyes.
She thought to herself: The plan works.
She gently shook Fu Qingqing's cool little hand, her voice still so gentle and pleasant.
"Ah."
Then, she seemed to suddenly think of something, pretended to ponder for a moment, and then said softly with a hint of embarrassment
"But, Qingqing..."
"I just don't know if your mother...and your brother...would agree with me, an outsider, moving in with you..."
When Fu Qingqing heard this, her chest immediately puffed out and she promised without thinking.
"My brother...my brother will definitely agree!"
As for her mother Dong Yulan...
Fu Qingqing had just puffed out her chest, but then it slowly collapsed like a deflated balloon, and her face also drooped.
She really had no idea what her mother Dong Yulan was thinking.
Ever since she left home, my mother has become extra cautious and careful, always afraid of bringing new troubles and disasters to the family.
If I let Sister Xiaoxue live with me, will my mother agree?
Lin Jianxue took in every subtle change in Fu Qingqing's expression and knew that the time was almost right.
The corners of her lips curled up slightly.
"That... when Aunt Dong and I talked about this incident,"
"Qingqing, you must come over and say a few good words for Sister Xiaoxue."
She tilted her head slightly, with a hint of pity in her tone.
"If Aunt Dong doesn't agree, it will be really difficult for Sister Xiaoxue to find a place to stay outside alone. She's not familiar with the place and people, so it's really difficult to deal with it."
