NOVPUBBut anyway, this is not the time to linger here.
With Zhong Chen being such a fool, he had convinced himself before even finding out the truth. Now that he knew Shen Ying hadn't really betrayed him, God knows how much he'd be blackmailed.
So the two of them turned around and were about to go after that guy.
Just as they were about to leave, they heard the bodyguard behind them ask, "Young master, what should we do with these two?"
Gong Zhaoxi waved his hand impatiently. "Do I have to teach you how to handle this kind of thing?"
His intention was to continue the interrogation to find out all the secrets. They knew what the other side had done, but they didn't know the motive and who had instigated it.
The incident from the previous night was plastered all over the school the next day. There must be someone plotting behind the scenes for a long time.
The bodyguard understood what he meant, but the two handsome guys didn't have this kind of understanding with Gong Zhaoxi.
The two of them immediately panicked. "What do you want to do?"
"Are you trying to force us into the entertainment industry?"
"I don't want to do striptease. I'm a proper student at an art school."
Xing Jiale and Gong Zhaoxi: "..."
Damn it. Who the hell found these two idiots?
It made them, who were trying to find out the truth, seem like they were up to no good.
The two of them, looking extremely aggrieved, caught up with Zhong Chen, got in the car and rushed to Shen Ying's house, only to find that no one was home.
She definitely wouldn't go to school, and she didn't answer the phone either.
The three of them could only sit in the car and wait for her to come back.
Unexpectedly, before waiting for Shen Ying, they first waited for Father Shen and Mother Shen.
At first, Zhong Chen wasn't quite sure. He had good eyesight and saw two familiar figures pushing a large, bulky rectangular object walking towards them from afar.
While he was stretching his neck to confirm, Xing Jiale and Gong Zhaoxi beside him also noticed.
They saw a middle - aged couple slowly pushing a snack cart towards the entrance of the community.
At first, the two of them thought they were lost street vendors. After all, judging from the housing prices in this community, the occupations and family backgrounds of the residents weren't so down - to - earth.
But strangely, the strict and cautious security guards in the community, after seeing this couple, although their expressions were indescribable, still let them in without asking a single question.
After all, these two were too recognizable in the community because of their occupation, but as long as the occupations of the residents didn't violate the law, it wasn't something the security guards could interfere with.
Xing Jiale and Gong Zhaoxi then realized that this couple was actually a resident here. They couldn't help but burst out laughing. "This family is so funny. Living in such a place but still going out to set up a stall."
"Judging from their age, they're not old people looking for something to do in their spare time, right? It seems that the young people in the family can afford to live here just by the income from setting up a stall."
"Street vendors these days are really capable."
Just as they were talking, Zhong Chen beside them confirmed who they were. He quickly opened the car door and got out, then walked quickly towards the middle - aged couple.
"Uncle and Aunt, you're back?"
The two of them were shocked and only then realized that these street vendors were actually Shen Ying's parents.
Suddenly, everything made sense. With a daughter like Shen Ying, it was no wonder they could afford a mansion even if they were just picking up plastic bottles.
Father Shen and Mother Shen were first startled when they saw Zhong Chen, then they said happily, "Xiao Zhong? Why are you here?"
"Have you eaten? We came back late today. Have you been waiting for a long time?"
Zhong Chen was extremely well - behaved. "Not long. It's only been less than an hour."
Mother Shen exclaimed repeatedly. "Oh! How could you wait for so long? Did Shen Ying not let you in?"
Zhong Chen quickly denied it. "She hasn't come home yet. I came here on my own initiative."
Mother Shen felt so sorry for him. "You should have at least called us. You must be tired from waiting."
But Zhong Chen behaved very cutely. "I was sitting in the car with the air - conditioner on. How could I be tired?"
"It doesn't matter if I wait a little longer. It's Uncle and Aunt who have worked hard. If I could get in, I would definitely pour you water and turn on the air - conditioner for you."
Zhong Chen's family background was so prominent that ordinary people would unconsciously feel nervous and in awe when talking to him.
But such a person was treating them with such considerate and friendly attitude. Mother Shen was immediately over the moon.
"Hey! This kid is so sweet. Well, next time you come, just go inside and wait. The password is xxxxxx..."
Xing Jiale and Gong Zhaoxi were stunned. The Zhong Chen in front of them made them feel extremely strange.
This good - looking guy could actually play this kind of game?
Zhong Chen, who got the password, showed a happy expression on his face. "Okay. I'll trouble you from now on."
"I'll help you push the cart."
Mother Shen was also very happy. Their current house was decent, and she didn't mind having visitors.
At this time, Xing Jiale and Gong Zhaoxi also got out of the car. Zhong Chen had forgotten about these two guys and was about to drive them away.
But the two of them took the initiative. "Hello, Uncle and Aunt. We're Shen Ying's classmates and A Chen's friends. We also came to see her today."
"Hope we're not disturbing you."
When Mother Shen saw two more boys with extraordinary temperaments, handsome and noble, her face showed even more joy. "No, no. You're not disturbing at all."
*
Shen Ying wandered outside for a whole day and came back home. She saw three people sitting on the sofa, looking through her photo album with great interest.
Zhong Chen: "This photo is so cute."
Xing Jiale: "This one looks so stiff."
Gong Zhaoxi: "Hey, this is a swimsuit photo!"
Zhong Chen quickly closed the photo album and scolded, "You, go sit over there."
Shen Ying said slowly, "Or you can all just get out."
Hearing her voice, Zhong Chen immediately stood up, looking extremely nervous and guilty.
But he quickly walked up to Shen Ying. "Why haven't you been to school for a few days?"
Shen Ying quickly reached out and covered his mouth. Fortunately, Mother Shen didn't hear.
Shen Ying stared at Zhong Chen. "Wasn't the drama at school enough? Do you want to make me unhappy at my home too?"
But Zhong Chen blushed. It was hard to tell if he was anxious or shy.
The living room wasn't a good place to talk, so Shen Ying motioned for him to follow her into the bedroom.
As soon as Zhong Chen stepped in, seeing the closed space that Shen Ying had carefully decorated and was filled with her atmosphere everywhere, he immediately forgot what he was going to say.
He didn't know where to look. When his eyes fell on the bed, he quickly moved them away as if his eyes had been burned.
But unfortunately, they landed on a standing clothes rack in the corner.
Then he remembered the writhing figures of those two guys not long ago. He immediately felt a bit jealous and suddenly had an idea.
If he wanted to seduce someone, he definitely wouldn't be worse than those two guys.
Thinking of this, Zhong Chen suddenly woke up, and his ears started to turn red.
Just as he was about to speak, the door was opened again.
Xing Jiale and Gong Zhaoxi walked in, ignoring Zhong Chen's ugly face.
Gong Zhaoxi even said in a cheeky way, "What bad things are you two doing? Let us join in."
Zhong Chen didn't want these two to see him apologizing later, so he quickly tried to drive them away.
But Shen Ying was hungry and didn't have time to waste here.
So she just said directly, "It's not appropriate for an ex - boyfriend to come to my door with his two brothers, is it?"
Hearing this, Zhong Chen immediately denied it. "I didn't ask them to come. They just followed me stubbornly."
Then he pulled Shen Ying's hand and said in a low and pleading voice, "Don't call me that. When did I ever agree to break up?"
Shen Ying shook off his hand forcefully and said, "As we all know, it takes the consent of both parties to be together, but only one party's decision to break up." Then she looked at Zhong Chen with a half - smile and asked, "Do you think I'm joking when I say we should break up?"
Zhong Chen saw that she had even returned the gift. How could he not know the seriousness of the situation? He anxiously said, "Don't do this. It's my fault. I shouldn't have suspected you."
"I was blinded by jealousy when I saw the photo and lost my judgment. In fact, I gradually figured it out when I got home."
"You're so wonderful. Surely it's not just me who has discovered your goodness. Those guys out there won't win your heart with sincerity and patience like I do."
"Those with ulterior motives must be full of tricks and use dirty means. Just look at the guy in the photo. He doesn't look like a decent person at all."
Xing Jiale and Gong Zhaoxi had long expected that this guy wouldn't act like a man when he came over, but they didn't expect Zhong Chen's words to almost make them vomit.
Xing Jiale glared at Zhong Chen and said, "Can you stand up and talk like a man?" Then he looked at Shen Ying and said, "Be honest with yourself. Can you really blame A Chen for this? Anyone would misunderstand after seeing that kind of photo."
"Moreover, this isn't the first time. It's the second time. The first time could be considered an accident, but getting caught in the same trap the second time makes one have to suspect that you enjoy it."
"Even if you didn't do anything improper, what does it mean when you're all over each other like that? Is that a proper way to get along?"
Shen Ying retorted, "Just because I'm not on guard against others, should I be treated like this?"
"You all saw it at that time. The whole school was waiting to see my joke, which means their previous enthusiasm and kindness were all fake. In fact, they were all hoping for my misfortune."
"You don't need me to tell you why they all hate me, do you?"
"When I was all alone and helpless, the only person who should have unconditionally believed in me, my boyfriend, was the first one to question me. How would you feel if it were you?"
"I even didn't dare to go to school these days because I knew that once I went, all I would face was everyone's exclusion and humiliation."
"I originally thought this kind of thing wouldn't happen again."
Finally, she looked at Zhong Chen with a disappointed look in her eyes and said, "It seems I thought too simply. Your mood can always determine my situation at any time. This isn't a normal relationship."
"So, when I said we should break up, it wasn't an impulsive decision. It was because at that moment, I realized that even when we had an argument, it wouldn't be fair between us."
After hearing these words, Zhong Chen felt as if his heart was being stabbed with a knife. A huge sense of panic swept over him.
Did she make the decision to break up after careful consideration?
Zhong Chen was completely flustered and quickly said, "Who said that? From now on, you can scold me or beat me as you like. I'll see who dares to say a word in my defense."
Xing Jiale said, "Can you listen to what you're saying?"
Shen Ying glanced at Xing Jiale and then looked at Zhong Chen disappointedly. "See? It's not up to you at all."
Zhong Chen quickly grabbed Xing Jiale by the neck and said, "I'll handle it."
But Shen Ying was impatient. She drove all three of them out.
"Then come to me after you've handled everything."
Zhong Chen said, "You must come to school tomorrow."
Just then, Mother Shen came out of the kitchen and asked, "What about school?"
Shen Ying immediately closed the door, rubbed her hands, and walked towards the dining table. "The food today is really sumptuous."
Mother Shen wanted to hit her and said, "You're entertaining guests. Why do you always drive them away?"
Shen Ying replied, "It's a strategy to attract men. You don't understand."
Mother Shen resentfully served her a bowl of rice.
The next day, when Shen Ying arrived at school, she saw all the students rushing excitedly towards the cafeteria.
She had a bad feeling about it and followed them. As soon as she entered the cafeteria, she saw Zhong Chen and the other two sitting at the top seats.
At this moment, they were looking coldly at Xia Meng sitting opposite them.
The students around clearly sensed the anger of the three of them. Everyone was looking at Xia Meng with a kind of eager and scrutinizing look.
The malicious looks from the crowd made Xia Meng's face turn deathly pale.
She knew why the three of them had come to find her, and despair filled her heart.
But at this time, someone pushed through the crowd, pulled her behind them, and firmly protected her.
The person said firmly and loudly, "Don't touch my sister!"
