Chapter 89: Awkward Encounter

  Wen Ning hadn't expected Tang Xiaoyu to act this way. With a sullen face, he shook off her entangled arms and pulled Fang Qing back. "Are you okay? Did you get hurt?"

  Fang Qing hadn't expected to see Tang Xiaoyu like this again. She shook her head at Wen Ning, then looked at Xiaoyu, whose expression was gloomy. "Xiaoyu, it's been a while. Are you okay?"

  Tang Xiaoyu looked at Fang Qing's increasingly bright and beautiful face, feeling a mixture of jealousy and resentment. "Okay? Humph, how can I be okay with you two hooking up behind my back?"

  Fang Qing was stunned by what she said. When Wen Ning asked her to be his girlfriend, Fang Qing had initially refused. She

  felt that if she went ahead with Wen Ning without her approval, she would be betraying her friend. So, after the college entrance exam, she wrote her a letter asking for her opinion.

  Fang Qing clearly remembered that in the letter, Tang Xiaoyu said she no longer loved Wen Ning, but was happy to see her and Wen Ning together. Seeing this reply, Fang Qing breathed a sigh of relief and finally agreed to be with Wen Ning.

  Why is Xiaoyu reacting like this now?

  "Xiaoyu, did you misunderstand something?"

  Fang Qing tried to reach out and pull her back, but Tang Xiaoyu shoved her away, sneering with her chin raised.

  "Misunderstanding? The facts are right in front of you, and you're still quibbling. Fang Qing, oh Fang Qing, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person. I still consider you my friend, bah, shameless!"

  "Xiaoyu! How dare you talk like that?" Wen Ning looked at Xiaoyu's ferocious face and stood in front of Fang Qing with a sullen face.

  But this action made Tang Xiaoyu's face change again, "Brother Ning! You actually protect her so much! How is she better than me? You rejected me five times. I, Tang Xiaoyu, have good looks and a good family background. How can you not see my good points and choose to be with this woman first! I regard you two as the most important people. Are you two worthy of me?"

  The more Tang Xiaoyu spoke, the more Fang Qing frowned. Finally, she couldn't help but ask, "Xiaoyu, I don't think I have ever done anything to let you down. Before Brother Ning and I were together, I wrote you a letter just to know your attitude towards this matter. If you had opposed it at the time, I would never be with Brother Ning, but you were clearly very happy in your letter and wished us well, so I agreed. Have you forgotten?"

  Tang Xiaoyu thought Fang Qing was quibbling again, and glared at her hatefully, wanting to tear her up, "You are talking nonsense! I have never received your letter! You just wanted to snatch my Brother Ning away on purpose, and you would do anything to get him away! You bitch..."

  "Tang Xiaoyu!" Wen Ning couldn't bear it any longer and roared, shutting up Tang Xiaoyu's nonsense. "Say another word, and I'll throw you back right away."

  Tang Xiaoyu was still afraid of the enraged Wen Ning and timidly shut her mouth, but her eyes kept darting towards Fang Qing. If looks could kill, Fang Qing would have been killed by Tang Xiaoyu's gaze long ago.

  "Hmph! You two... just wait and see!" She turned and ran away quickly.

  Fang Qing watched Tang Xiaoyu run away, and seeing that it was getting late, she felt a little worried. She nudged Wen Ning beside her, "She's a girl, how can she run around here? Do you want to catch up and see?"

  Wen Ning looked at Fang Qing helplessly for a moment. He had many questions he wanted to ask, but Fang Qing kept urging him to agree. "I'll take you to the dormitory door, and then we'll go find her."

  After safely returning Fang Qing to the dormitory, Wen Ning went after Tang Xiaoyu. When Fang Qing returned to the dormitory, she saw several new roommates looking at her with strange expressions. She smiled and said nothing, simply washed her face and went to bed early.

  The next morning, Fang's father and mother went out to play by themselves. Wen Ning was going to take Fang Qing to familiarize herself with the campus, but unexpectedly, Tang Xiaoyu suddenly appeared as soon as the two of them finished breakfast, squeezed in between them, and insisted on going with them.

  Wen Ning pulled Fang Qing and continued walking without even looking at her, but Tang Xiaoyu was not angry, nor did she yell like she did yesterday, waving a small fan and following behind them like a dog-skin plaster, making trouble everywhere.

  When Fang Qing was shown around the various teaching buildings, Tang Xiaoyu scoffed at the old buildings.
  When Fang Qing went to the library, Tang Xiaoyu, clutching a few books, asked questions, earning numerous rolls of eyes.

  When Fang Qing went to the cafeteria to get food, Tang Xiaoyu squeezed in and nearly got into a fight with the students around her.

  Fang Qing's initial anticipation for the new campus was completely shattered by Tang Xiaoyu. Initially apprehensive, she became patient, until, after touring all the locations with Wen Ning with expressionless faces, they sat exhausted by the lake, staring blankly at the rippling water.

  Tang Xiaoyu had drunk too much water that afternoon and finally broke away from them to go to the restroom, giving Wen Ning a chance to question Fang Qing.

  "Are you tired?"

  Fang Qing nodded, "Not bad."

  The wind by the lake was a little chilly. Seeing that Fang Qing was not wearing much, Wen Ning took off his coat and put it on Fang Qing, "I'll take you back to the dormitory later. You should have a good rest. I will send her back today."

  Fang Qing shook her head, "This matter can't be solved by just sending her away. As long as she doesn't let it go, she will keep making trouble with us."

  Wen Ning knew it of course, but he would not tolerate anyone bullying Fang Qing, "It's okay, I'll take care of it. You just need to prepare for school next, and don't think about anything else."

  Fang Qing looked at Wen Ning's profile, remembered what he hadn't told him before, and felt it necessary to make things clear to him.

  "Wen Ning, I was hesitant and didn't dare to agree to you at the beginning because I was afraid that Xiaoyu would misunderstand. I admit that I like you, but I can't let our happiness be built on the pain of a friend, so I thought about it for a long time before I dared to write to Xiaoyu. This matter... I hope you won't be angry."

  Wen Ning looked at Fang Qing with tender eyes and sighed, "Is your boyfriend such a stingy person? I know you cherish your friends, and I understand this situation. But many things will not have results if you tolerate them. If she didn't agree at the beginning, or if she asked you to break up now, what would you do?"

  Fang Qing opened her mouth, not knowing how to answer.

  Wen Ning sighed at her expression, took Fang Qing's hand and held it in his palm, "Qingqing, none of us can predict matters of the heart, and our happiness cannot be controlled by others. Don't have so many psychological burdens, I will take care of Xiaoyu's side, you don't have to worry about it."

  Fang Qing wanted to say something, but Wen Ning didn't give her the chance, "Be good, you just came to school, there are a lot of things to do, leave this to me."

  Looking at Tang Xiaoyu walking back in the distance, Fang Qing could only shut her mouth.

  In the afternoon, Fang's father and mother came back, saying that there was an emergency at home, so they went back first. They took Fang Qing and gave her a lot of instructions, and then Wen Ning sent her to the train. With

  the arrival of the freshmen, the school was going to hold a welcome party. As the president of the student union, Wen Ning had a lot of things to host. After Wen Ning arranged Fang Qing, he was also called away.
