âNo,â Qiao Ruoxi explained calmly. âI broke up with him. He didnât agree, soâ¦â
âIs that why he came to you and threatened you with a knife?âLi Yinian guessed.
Qiao Ruoxi nodded.
Li Yixue said indignantly, âI really didnât expect him to be that kind of man. I used to think that he was very gentle and good to you. I thought that he would love you well. Who knew that he would actually be so crazy? Breaking up with him is the right thing to do. Itâs fine if you donât want a scumbag like him. Iâll introduce you to someone better later.â
She had no idea why she broke up with Qin Xuming, and Qiao Ruoxi had no idea how to explain it.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âForget it. I donât want to be in a relationship for the time being.â
That was a good enough reason!
It was not that she did not want to fall in love, but she was not qualified to fall in love.
With the title of âMrs. Feng,â she could only quietly play the role of a surrogate mother.
âFine! If the old one doesnât go, the new one wonât come. When you think it through one day, wonât it be easy to find a man?â Li Yixue said.
Qiao Ruoxi smiled. âYou make it sound so easy. Itâs been so many years. Why donât you find another one? Are you still unable to forget Tang Yebing?â
âStop!â Li Yixueâs face instantly changed. âYouâre not allowed to mention this personâs name again. Otherwise, weâll no longer be friends.â
Fine, she and Tang Yebing were indeed enemies.
Qiao Ruoxi remembered that she had known Li Yixue for many years. âXiaoxue, let me ask you a question. You have to tell me the truth, okay?â
âHey, Iâve never lied to you!â Li Yixue scolded.
âOkay.â Qiao Ruoxi nodded. âThen let me ask you, what kind of person was I in the past? I mean, five years ago?â
ââ¦â
Li Yixue pursed her lips and frowned.
This was probably the first time Qiao Ruoxi had asked her such a question. It was the first time she had expressed doubt about her identity in front of her.
Li Yixue could not say it. She had promised Qiao Ruoxiâs mother, Su Hui, to keep her mouth shut.
Thinking of this, she had no choice but to answer against her conscience. âAhahaha, you used to be the same as you are now. You are you. You will always be the kind and cute Little Xi Xi!â
Qiao Ruoxi observed her carefully and did not notice anything unusual.
Li Yixue would never lie to her. Perhaps she was overthinking.
Seeing that Qiao Ruoxi was deep in thought, Li Yixue asked again, âXi Xi, why did you suddenly ask me such a strange question?â
Qiao Ruoxi sighed softly and told her, âYixue, I donât know whatâs wrong with me. Recently, Iâve been having strange images pop up in my head, strange things that people say.
âNo idea. It doesnât feel like my memory. I just want to know why.â
âI feel like Qin Xuming is hiding something from me, but he wonât tell me.
âAnd that Wen Keâer. I feel like sheâs known me for a long time. Sheâs very hostile towards me. I can feel it.â
Li Yixueâs heart ached for her.
Sometimes, she really wanted to tell her everything, but she was afraid that she would be hurt.
Perhaps it would be best for her if she knew nothing.
âXixi, donât let your imagination run wild. Maybe youâve read too many novels and always think of strange scenes.â
Li Yixue could only remind her indirectly, âThat Wen Keâer youâre talking about, I donât think sheâs a good person. If you meet her in the future, youâd better stay away from her.â
âYes.â Qiao Ruoxi nodded in agreement.
If you canât take full precautions against a sinister person, then you can only avoid them.
