Chapter 35 The nightmare returns
My fight with Zhao Wuji ended very quickly. As a potato-eating loser, how could I possibly be a match for Zhao Wuji, who ate steak? In the blink of an eye, I was pinned to the ground by him, and then he kicked me hard while I was lying on the ground.
Mo Qingyu rushed over to stop him, and Zhao Wuji let me go. He pulled his hand back and cursed loudly, "You useless guy, you still want to steal my woman."
"Don't be like this!" Mo Qingyu looked at Zhao Wuji and said.
I barely stood up, looked at Mo Qingyu, and said with a wry smile: "So this is your answer."
"I'm sorry, Zhang Fan, but there's nothing I can do." Mo Qingyu looked at me and said.
"There's no way. Is that your answer?" I said with a wry smile.
At this time, Zhao Wuji snorted coldly: "Okay, don't waste time. I'll tell you the truth. Mo Qingyu is my fiancée, and we have decided to get engaged."
"How is this possible?" I looked at Zhao Wuji and couldn't help asking.
"This is true. This is my mother's decision. I can't refute it." Mo Qingyu lowered her head and whispered. Zhao Wuji sneered and looked at me with contempt.
"You are just a scumbag and can't give her happiness." I said gritting my teeth.
Who knew Zhao Wuji would smile mysteriously at this time, and then speak in my ear in a voice that only I could hear: "So what? I want to have sex with her, so what can you do to me?"
"You bastard." I punched Zhao Wuji in the face again in anger, and then we started fighting again. But I was still no match for Zhao Wuji, so I returned home with a bloody head.
At home, my father didn't say a word about my injury, but just silently applied medicine to me. I looked at my father and said sadly, "Why did it become like this?"
"That's life. Nothing goes smoothly." My father answered me.
In the following days, Mo Qingyu moved out of my seat and stayed with Zhao Wuji. I instantly became the laughing stock of the class. Many people looked down on me and said I deserved it. On the contrary, Zhao Pengyu kept comforting me.
But his comfort did not ease my pain. Looking at the intimacy between Mo Qingyu and Zhao Wuji, I felt despair from the bottom of my heart.
Under these circumstances, I decided to have a final talk with Mo Qingyu. Then I would give up.
So after school, I went downstairs to Mo Qingyu's house and waited for her to come back.
After waiting for several hours, I finally saw Mo Qingyu. She was sitting in a car, and the driver was Zhao Wuji.
As they got out of the car, I retreated unconsciously and hid behind a bush. At this time, I could already hear their voices.
The two walked downstairs together and said a few more goodbye words. Mo Qingyu suddenly stood on tiptoe, hooked her arm around Zhao Wuji's neck, and kissed him. Zhao Wuji seemed very happy, and hugged her tightly and kissed her back. Mo Qingyu's eyebrows were full of affection, and she smiled slightly, just like she used to be in my arms.
My eyes went dark, my ears buzzed, and I nearly fell over. My feet felt like they were rooted to the ground, and I couldn't move at all. I was sweating all over, and my clothes were soaked quickly.
After the two of them outside kissed passionately, Mo Qingyu lay in Zhao Wuji's arms and refused to leave. Zhao Wuji patted her face and said something gently. Mo Qingyu pouted and nodded, then Zhao Wuji hugged her and went into the building together.
At this moment I awoke from my state of painful idiocy. I knew that the final moment had come.
I walked out of the woods and called out, "Mo Qingyu..."
My voice was hoarse, dry and weak, like a dying person who had just crawled out of the desert.
The two turned around. When Mo Qingyu saw me, she was not surprised as I thought, nor did she show any apology. Instead, she lowered her head, smiled slightly, and her face flushed. Her expression was like a newlywed woman meeting a stranger, happy and shy.
It was then that I noticed that her dress was also very different from before. In the past, her hair was either flowing and shawl-like, or tied up in a cute ponytail, but today, for the first time, she had her hair tied up high in a bun, and she was wearing an expensive black dress, covered in jewels and glittering, like a newlywed noblewoman.
Her clothes and her expression said it all. I realized immediately that Mo Qingyu had given herself to Zhao Wuji. She was no longer a virgin. Especially her expression of happiness and shyness like a newlywed woman, which made my heart ache. I heard the sticky sound of blood dripping from my heart.
Zhao Wuji was very elegant and smiled, "It turns out to be Zhang Fan! How are you these days?"
Damn it! He stole my love, and yet he pretended to be fine! I gritted my teeth and replied, "Thanks to you, I'm fine!"
Zhao Wuji continued to hold Mo Qingyu's waist and said, "Are you waiting for someone here?"
"I was just waiting for Mo Qingyu. I didn't expect to see you two."
"Oh, haha." Zhao Wuji still smiled and said, "You are looking for Mo Qingyu. Mo Qingyu, he is looking for you."
Mo Qingyu looked at me with an unnatural expression: "Zhang Fan, what's the matter?"
I looked at Mo Qingyu calmly, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "May the best of luck to you. I will not protect you anymore."
"Haha, with your current condition, you still have the nerve to say that you will protect Mo Qingyu." Zhao Wuji sneered.
Mo Qingyu looked at me, bit her lip, and said, "Zhang Fan , I'm sorry."
"You don't have to say sorry. It was my own fault for being blind and misjudging someone!" I said. Then I turned around and walked away without even looking back.
Just then, Mo Qingyu called me.
I stopped and turned back calmly.
Mo Qingyu finally showed some apology in her eyes at this time. She moved her lips as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she only said those three words: "...I'm sorry!"
"You don't have to say sorry." I repeated what I just said, sneering, "One day you will regret it!"
On the way back, my heart was filled with pain. Just now, I still had an unrealistic fantasy that Mo Qingyu would not betray me. There must be some reason behind it, perhaps some unspeakable secret. If this is true, even if she is not a virgin, I will forgive her.
But now it seems that it was all just my wishful thinking. Mo Qingyu finally betrayed me and joined Zhao Wuji. And I was like a poor dog, only able to bark.
In fact, I should have known it long ago. Compared with Zao Wou-Ki, I am not as good as him in everything. I am not as rich as him, and I am not as good as him in learning. I knew it when I first met Zao Wou-Ki.
The reason why I was able to win Mo Qingyu's heart was because I tried my best to save him in the death game some time ago. But now, the death game is over. I have become that loser with nothing again.
In the face of cruel reality, I am nothing but a poor person.
When I got home, I collapsed on the bed and didn't come back to my senses for a long time. After a while, I found my father and asked to transfer to another school.
My father didn't ask me the reason, but told me calmly that he would help me with the transfer procedures tomorrow.
I finally felt relieved, and now I felt more exhausted than ever before. I knew I was a complete failure.
If I don't want to lose my last bit of dignity, then transferring schools has become my only option.
Just as I was making fun of myself, my cell phone suddenly rang. I subconsciously picked up the phone, but the moment I looked at the screen, my eyes froze.
I don’t know when my avatar appeared in the group again, not only me, but everyone else’s as well.
The gatekeeper of the underworld who had disappeared appeared again in the group.
"You've had a month's rest, so you must be happy, right? But I'm sorry, I have to remind you. The rest time is over. Let's continue this unfinished game. I'll release new tasks tomorrow. Please enjoy the last night."
After the gatekeeper of the underworld spoke, the WeChat group was instantly in an uproar.
"What happened? Didn't the gatekeeper of the underworld die?"
"Yeah, who is joking like this?"
"This doesn't seem to be a joke. It is the gatekeeper of the underworld."
"Yes, even the number is the same."
"It's over, we're in again."
The students in the group shouted loudly, looking very panicked. On the contrary, I looked at the phone in front of me and smiled strangely.
"Interesting, very interesting. I didn't expect it to be like this."
"It turns out that from the very beginning, Han Ziyu was not the gatekeeper of the underworld. We were all deceived."
I muttered to myself, then put my phone aside with a sneer, turned around and went to sleep. Because I knew that there were more important things waiting for me tomorrow, and I had to conserve my energy.
The next day, I got up early and started washing my face and brushing my teeth. My father looked at me strangely and said, "Come with me. I'll take you to handle the transfer procedures."
"No, I'll think about it. I don't want to transfer schools." I smiled and looked at my father.
My father looked at me strangely, then nodded and said, "That's best."
"I'm leaving first." I said, turned around and left home.
On the way to school, the cold wind blew on my face, but it made me feel calmer than ever before. I knew what I was going to face next. But I would not be afraid, because I had already lost everything.
Mo Qingyu, Zhao Wuji, and anyone else who bullied me. Just wait, I will make you pay the price, because it was you who made me taste despair and pain. But you also made me reborn in pain!
