Ji Fengmian frowned. After a moment of silence, she glanced at his wrist. “Let go.”
Chu Boyan didn’t let go of her.
“Other than that?”
“Yes, it’s quite annoying to see you now. You’d better not appear in front of me for a while.”
Chu Boyang frowned and fell silent. “How long is a period of time?”
!!
“I’m not sure.”
It could be a few days or a few months. After a while, he felt that there was no need to be so persistent.
“Do you think that’s an answer?”
Ji Fengmian pursed his lips. “To be honest, I don’t want to see you for the rest of my life. Do you accept this answer?”
Chu Boyang didn’t say anything. His lips tightened into a sharp line.
Ji Fengmian looked at him and laughed. “About three months.”
Three months to graduation.
This answer made Chu Boyang’s face darken again.
Three months. Whether it was the special meaning of his university life coming to an end or the simple cycle of 90 days, he couldn’t accept it.
In the end, they had to live alone in university. How many times could there be a university in one’s life? How many 90 days could there be?
Unless he had no choice, he didn’t want to waste a single day.
“You should know that as long as I know that you still exist in this world, as long as I can still see and touch you, it’s impossible for me to maintain a distance from you.”
Ji Fengmian’s temples throbbed. Was it natural for a man to say nice things?
If these words were said to other women, they would have long fallen for her.
Wherever one looked, the sea would wither and rocks would crumble. It was really touching.
But no matter how beautiful she was, it depended on the situation. For example, she felt that he was being unreasonable.
“Chu Boyang, don’t you think you’re pushing your luck? You’re not satisfied with any answer. Why don’t you say it?”
Chu Boyang stared at her for a long time before saying slowly, “Mian, you know very well that I won’t let you leave me. But you’re unhappy now and don’t want to see me. I’ll let you be. I hope it won’t take too long. If you don’t express your stance, I won’t wait too long either. I hope you can calm down these few days.”
Ji Fengmian frowned as if he agreed with Chu Boyang’s words. Then, he glanced at his hand.
Chu Boyan released her.
Chu Jing followed behind Ji Fengmian. He had no idea if what Chu Boyang said was true or false.
“Hey, are you trying to get rid of him?”
“Why is it so difficult to break up?”
Chu Jing pursed his lips and said, “It’s because he likes you. But to be honest, with your temper, I think no one can tolerate it other than Chu Boyang.”
Ji Fengmian glanced at him. “What’s wrong with my temper? Did I fight with him or am I going to cause trouble?”
“I’m not talking about that. You have to give the other party some leeway. No matter what, you’re the one who keeps your word. The other party doesn’t even have a choice…”
Ji Fengmian sneered. “In that case, can a murderer who has been sentenced to death choose not to die?”
“Look, look!” Chu Jing pointed at her and said agitatedly, “Did you sentence him to death the moment you came up? But Chu Boyang isn’t a murderer.”
Ji Fengmian frowned. “Only the dead can be sentenced to death?”
Chu Jing slapped his forehead speechlessly. “Alright! Do as you deem fit.”

Chu Boyang did not appear in school again.
Their breakup in the canteen was probably the biggest gossip in the school recently.
Now that she had seen Ji Fengmian going to and from school alone, the rumors of their breakup became more and more intense.
The female lead who caused their high-profile breakup, Ji Qing, was also the center of attention.
In the first few days, she had never appeared in school.
When she appeared again, she went straight to Ji Fengmian.
When Ji Qing stopped her at the entrance of the laboratory building, Ji Fengmian couldn’t help but laugh.
“You have something to tell me?”
Ji Qing nodded and replied, “Yes. I heard about your breakup with Brother Boyang in the canteen… Should we find a place to sit down…”
“No.” Ji Fengmian interrupted her without any hesitation.
Ji Qing was stunned for a moment, but she didn’t have much of an expression. It wasn’t surprising to her what Ji Fengmian looked like.
Nodding, she continued, “I can understand that you mind my existence. To be honest, you’re right. After all, I’ve been with Brother Boyan all this while. He has always taken good care of me. He’s outstanding. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been with him. So I do have some thoughts about him.
But Brother Boyan likes you, not me. You don’t have to accuse Brother Boyan of confusing the feelings and love of childhood sweethearts. If he really likes me, I will definitely be happy. Unfortunately… we have been together for so many years. If we could be together, we would have been together long ago.
You’re right about one thing. I only want to date someone else because I can reassure you. But that’s only part of the reason. On the other hand, I still hope that I can use this relationship to jump out.
Everyone liked to kill two birds with one stone. Since you’re so smart, you must understand this better than me. Therefore, I don’t think there’s a need for you to magnify part of the reason to me.
I said that I won’t be involved in your relationship with Brother Boyan. If you don’t believe me, you should believe Brother Boyan. The reason… is to ask you why you chose to be with him in the first place.”
Ji Fengmian watched her the entire time. This was probably the most Ji Qing had spoken to her so far.
His posture was neither servile nor overbearing.
After she finished speaking, a smile appeared on Ji Fengmian’s face.
She held the book in her hand and tapped Ji Qing and herself.
Her eyes darted around as if she wanted to say something, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that she couldn’t respond to Ji Qing’s long speech with simple words.
“I don’t care if you have hundreds or thousands of reasons for choosing to date at this time. How free do you think I am? Do I have to find out if you have other reasons? The truth has proven that you do have feelings for him. This is enough for me.
As for Chu Boyang, it was true that I chose him, but who said that I would definitely trust him?
It’s not his fault that you fell in love with him, but he knew that you had feelings for him, yet he insisted on taking care of you and letting you continue to fantasize about him. I’m sorry, but his actions are definitely worthy of the word ‘scum’ in my eyes.
What you’re saying to me today is actually meaningless. You’re telling me that you have feelings for Chu Boyang? And you won’t ruin our relationship? You’re accusing me of being biased, heartless, and unreasonable?”
She sneered. “Then why do you think I broke up with Chu Boyang?”
Ji Qing bit her lip and frowned at her.
However, in front of Ji Fengmian, she seemed to be suppressed by him. Even an angry expression was laughable.
Ji Fengmian rolled the book in his hand and smiled at her. “Isn’t it because of this?”
Anger finally appeared on Ji Qing’s face. “Don’t you understand? Since I chose to be honest with you personally, I want to tell you that you don’t have to care about my existence at all… What should I do to stop you from fighting with Brother Boyang?”
Ji Fengmian sighed and took two steps closer to Ji Qing. He bent down to look into her eyes and smiled.
“Does Chu Boyang not care about you anymore?”
Ji Qing’s face stiffened.
Seeing this, the sneer on Ji Fengmian’s face deepened.
“Looks like she’s here to vent her anger on me.”
Ji Fengmian stood up slowly and looked at her with a mocking smile.
“But did you find the wrong person? If he ignores you, what’s the use of you coming to look for me? Do you think I want him to continue to care about you and reconcile with him? Aren’t you too naive?”
She couldn’t win against Ji Fengmian.
She was rendered speechless by Ji Fengmian’s casual words.
Ji Fengmian understood what she meant. Saying anything more was equivalent to nonsense in front of Ji Fengmian.
Her thoughts had been completely exposed.
No matter what she said or did, it was a joke in front of Ji Fengmian.
Ji Qing trembled and her lips trembled. She wanted to say something, but she couldn’t.
So what if she said anything to Ji Fengmian? She could always refute her.
There was nothing she could do. Tears welled up in her eyes and finally fell.
Ji Fengmian raised an eyebrow.
“A woman’s tears won’t gain anything from a woman.”
With that, she pressed the rolled-up book against her shoulder and turned to leave.
“Don’t go!”
Ji Qing suddenly pulled her back. Her voice was sobbing and she sounded like she had lost control of her emotions.
Caught off guard, Ji Fengmian staggered and almost fell. After stabilizing himself, Ji Qing looked at her with teary eyes.
“What do I have to do to stop you from fighting with Brother Boyang? Tell me what I have to do to be satisfied?”
Ji Fengmian was on the verge of tears from Ji Qing’s crying and pestering. She took a deep breath and retracted her hand.
“You keep saying that you won’t ruin our relationship, but you still want me to agree to you staying by her side? Ji Qing, is there something wrong with your brain? If you want to stay by his side, go and tell him. What’s the use of pestering me?”
“But you care! He cares about you. You threatened him with a breakup…”
“Threatened?” Ji Fengmian laughed. “Whether it’s a threat or not, since he has made a choice, you should face reality. Aren’t you in a relationship? Are you going to be with him when you marry someone else in the future?”
“I won’t get married!”
Something was throbbing on Ji Fengmian’s forehead. “Crazy.”
She couldn’t take it anymore and strode away.
Ji Qing shouted from behind, “Brother Boyang and I are family… We can’t be together. Why must you let him chase me away from him?”
If Ji Fengmian didn’t find it painful to hit someone, she would have gone back to give that lunatic two tight slaps.
She took out her phone and called Chu Boyang.
The call was picked up quickly. “If you don’t look for me, I might look for you immediately.”
“Really? Thanks to your sister Ji Qing!”
There was a pause on the other end of the line. “What’s wrong?”
“You’re here to fight with me. Otherwise, I’ll tell you that dating you is really an endless mess. I forced you to chase her away? Ha, get over here and get her away!”
After saying that, she hung up.
Chu Boyang’s face darkened.
After leaving the office, the assistant asked curiously, “Director Chu, the meeting is starting soon…”
“Cancel it!”
When Chu Boyang arrived at school, he saw Ji Qing sitting on the bench downstairs with a pale face.
When she saw him, tears streamed down her face.
“Brother Boyan…”
“What did you say to her?”
Ji Qing sobbed for a while. “I asked her to reconcile with you. I promised her that there wouldn’t be anything between us. I wanted her not to care so much about my existence… but she didn’t listen to me…”
Chu Boyang finally understood why Ji Fengmian was so angry with him.
With her temper, how could she tolerate being disturbed by outsiders? Moreover, Ji Qing had used such a method.
Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath. “Ji Qing…”
Ji Qing seemed to know what he was going to say and suddenly covered her ears. “No, I don’t want to hear it. I know that we won’t be together, and I’m not asking for anything. But Brother Boyang, ever since I entered the orphanage at the age of seven, you’ve been accompanying me and taking care of me. It’s always been like this all these years. You can’t chase me away. Aren’t we family? As long as we’re family, that’s enough…
Can you tell Ji Fengmian not to target me like this?
“Calm down.”
Chu Boyan looked at her, his cold face full of warning.
Ji Qing clutched her chest and bit her lips hard. She took a few deep breaths before standing up slowly. She wiped the tears off her face and forced a smile. “I know you won’t let me go. I also know that you’re in a difficult position, but I won’t make things difficult for you. I’ll think of another way. I think I angered Sister Mian just now. Hurry up and find her…”
Chu Boyang stood rooted to the ground for a long time before saying, “I’ll send you back.”
Ji Qing shook her head. “You should find her now. Otherwise, she’ll be angry again… I’m really fine…”
As she spoke, she gave him another pale smile.
Chu Boyang grabbed her and said in a tense but gentle voice, “I’ll send you back. Be good.”
Ji Qing’s tears fell again. “Brother Boyang, can you not do this to me…”
Chu Boyang pursed his lips. “Let’s go.”
Ji Qing wiped her tears, but she still followed behind Chu Boyang.
The two of them crossed the entire campus. There were many passersby, and there was no lack of gossip.
Ji Qing and Ji Fengmian’s movements downstairs, and now Chu Boyang had left with Ji Qing.
Everyone seemed to be more certain that Ji Fengmian and Chu Boyang had broken up because of Ji Qing.
When Ji Fengmian heard this, he thought that Chu Boyang had chosen his childhood sweetheart between her and Ji Qing.
She only sneered. That was good too.
That night, Chu Boyang pestered her again.
They couldn’t break up or continue to be together.
Because Ji Qing had intercepted her midway, she rarely gave Chu Boyang a chance to speak.
Just like that, they were entangled for more than a month.
Graduation was imminent.
The school was open to recruitment.
While most of the graduates were busy, they witnessed a rare scene.
When the news spread at the fastest speed and reached Ji Fengmian’s ears, she was also shocked.
“Hey, did you know? Chu Boyang actually slapped Ji Qing just now.”
