Chapter 217

"I failed to stand up for you back then, which is why you had to bear it all alone for so long."

"It's only natural that you hate me; on the contrary, I'm the one shamelessly begging for your forgiveness..."

Su Qian walked in front of Ning Shuang, her back to Ning Shuang, and whispered something.

This is something she owes Ning Shuang, so it's perfectly normal that Ning Shuang isn't willing to forgive her.

She brought this all upon herself; she was far too cowardly back then.

"You haven't changed at all; you still like to take everything on yourself."

Ning Shuang grabbed Su Qian's small hand.

The icy, frigid temperature traveled through Su Qian's fingertips to Ning Shuang's palm.

Su Qian must be feeling extremely guilty right now.

She will definitely think it's because she didn't stand up for herself.

Only then will I become that lost and dejected state.

I can't stand her, even though so many years have passed.

As a result, when problems arise, she still tends to take all the blame upon herself.

"Idiot, it's not entirely your fault."

"You came here today wanting to have a good talk, so why are you acting so timid? This isn't the Su Qian I know."

"If you're willing to accept an invitation from someone who has abandoned their friends, then let's have a good talk."

Ning Shuang squeezed Su Qian's small hand tightly.

As if she had made up her mind, she slowly raised her little face.

Looking at Su Qian's stunned face, speechless at what he had just said.

Ning Shuang gave a bitter smile.

"I should be the one apologizing."

Ning Shuang held Su Qian's small hand tightly and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

Perhaps Su Qian truly felt a deep sense of guilt towards her.

But isn't she the same? She and Su Qian share the same feelings.

She simply didn't know how to face Su Qian now, so she chose to back down.

Because Su Qian is currently the student council president of the Huihuangxing Academy.

She was the perfect woman admired by all the students.

If others learn about Su Qian's past because of her...

"I'm telling you two, if you want to make up, then make up. Is it really necessary to make things so disgusting?"

"I got goosebumps all over my arm. It's just a misunderstanding between us, is it really that big of a deal?"

Han Yu kicked the plastic bottle at her feet.

She knew about the relationship between Su Qian and Ning Shuang.

To put it bluntly, these two people both want to consider the other's feelings.

They both wanted to help each other avoid being affected by public opinion at the time.

They are all protecting each other in their own ways.

They simply misunderstood each other's intentions later on.

Does such a simple thing need to be talked about at length?

I really don't know why you care about such a small thing.

It's ridiculous that this could become a source of conflict between these two people.

"Han Yu... thank you..."

Ning Shuang stared blankly at Han Yu standing beside them.

After a moment of silence, Ning Shuang smiled faintly and expressed her gratitude to Han Yu.

Although she did not like Han Yu, and even disliked him a little.

But today, it wasn't for Han Yu's presence that acted as a mediator.

She and Su Qian wouldn't chat so naturally now.

Moreover, Ning Shuang remembered it clearly.

When Su Qian first called her, she panicked and didn't know how to face Su Qian.

Han Yu suddenly stepped in front of her and stopped Su Qian.

Han Yu is a woman whose thoughts are sometimes really hard to understand.

He was so cold and indifferent to He Xue.

He trampled on He Xue's friendship and treated her like a dispensable toy.

But when someone bullied He Xue, and later about the bracelet incident...

Han Yu would always step forward to help He Xue.

And it was the same when I saw Su Qian today.

What kind of person is Han Yu, really...?

"Thanks."

Su Qian also nodded politely to Han Yu.

She also knew Han Yu's importance at this gathering.

Without Han Yu, even with Wu Liang here, it would be difficult to change the atmosphere.

"Thank you? Are you out of your minds?"

Han Yu was stunned after hearing their thanks.

Did these two people get their heads caught in a door?

She clearly disliked them, so why were these two thanking her?

"Tickets bought, let's go in."

Wu Liang walked over to the group from a distance.

He seemed somewhat surprised when he saw Ning Shuang holding Su Qian's hand.

His facial expression shifted slightly, but quickly returned to normal.

Have the two, who were originally good friends, made up?

Things went much more smoothly than he had imagined.

According to Su Qian, they haven't seen each other for several years.

I thought Su Qian and Ning Shuang would need some time to adjust to each other.

But now it seems they have already skipped the adjustment period.

"Wu Liang, why did we come here?"

After seeing Wu Liang, Han Yu ignored the two women behind her.

She jogged over to Wu Liang's side and complained somewhat discontentedly.

She had clearly made plans with Wu Liang to go to the amusement park.

Why has this electronics center suddenly appeared here?

"There are some activities here today, and Yao Shi and Milutin are very interested in them."

"We'll go to the amusement park later, is that alright?"

Wu Liang handed the Fruity Milk Tea he had bought to Han Yu.

If nothing unexpected happens, Han Yu should like this flavor of milk tea.

After all, when I saw Han Yu in the infirmary before, she was holding this.

(For details, see Chapter 84 of Volume 1: The Unfathomable Human Heart)

"Since you've put it that way..."

"But you'll have to spend more time with me at the amusement park later."

Han Yu took the milk tea from Wu Liang, lowered her head, and muttered softly.

Wu Liang actually remembered what flavor of milk tea she liked?

She hadn't deliberately mentioned this to Wu Liang.

"That's natural."

Wu Liang breathed a slight sigh of relief after seeing that Han Yu did not show much resistance.

To be honest, Wu Liang hadn't expected Han Yu to accept this suggestion.

"Let's go inside. Your two maids should have already gone in."

Han Yu suddenly reached out and took Wu Liang's arm, giving him a cold smile.

They were just two maids; she didn't even consider them a threat.

"I said, Yao Shi, that girl seems to be very close to the young master."

Milutin had already reached the lobby, looked through the glass at Wu Liang and his group who were walking towards them.

She had actually noticed it when they were in the coffee shop.

The eldest daughter and young master of the Han Family were especially close, and the young master was very proactive.

"Young Master is quite popular."

Her crimson eyes scanned Han Yu, who was clinging to Wu Liang's arm.

I never expected that the eldest daughter of the Han Family would be so fond of the young master.

"Aren't you worried? Be careful that the young master doesn't get snatched away by her."

"That's the eldest daughter of the Han Family, she's quite a threat."

Milutin turned to look at Yao Shi behind him.

This girl doesn't seem nervous at all.

Aren't you afraid that the young master will be kidnapped by that young lady from the Han Family?

You should know that the one from the Han Family is a good friend of our master.

Those two people have a very close relationship.

If the master finds out that the eldest daughter of the Han Family has feelings for the young master...

"Young Master is not the kind of person who can be easily won over by a few flirty glances."

"But what you said makes sense. Just be a little more careful from now on."

Yao Shi turned her head and glanced at the group of people who were about to enter the hall.

He turned his gaze back to the giant Armored Warrior in front of him.

Standing a full four meters tall, its imposing silver armor looked luxurious and magnificent.

He held his hands in front of him, his massive steel axe engraved with ancient and complex inscriptions.

Even without being sharpened, this giant humanoid Armored Warrior still exudes a sense of awe.

"This thing looks kind of scary."
