“Right, Little Wang. What happened to your sister?” Fang Tian asked Wang Songshan at the private dinner of the Butterfly Family.
“She has been married for a long time. Did you expect her to stay a widow for you?” Wang Songshan rolled his eyes at Fang Tian.
“Of course not. I’m glad that she’s married now. Or else, wouldn’t I be causing harm to her?” Fang Tian shook his head and replied.
“My sister is married to someone who’s much better than you. He is the heir of the Hutus Family.” Wang Songshan said.
“I don’t care who he is. It has nothing to do with me.” Fang Tian said with a grin.
“Little Fang, I have heard that you entered the detention hall. What happened to you? With your skill, it shouldn’t be a challenge to escape from the detention hall, right?” Wang Songshan asked curiously.
“I stayed on purpose. I was watching someone.” Fang Tian said plainly.
“Watching someone? Watching who?” Wang Songshan asked curiously.
“You don’t know him. He’s a person who plots conspiracy.” Fang Tian said.
“Little Fang, since when did you start to play with these deep tactics?” Wang Songshan said sarcastically.
” Hehe , we are already not young. Do you behave like this in front of others?” Fang Tian laughed.
“Of course not.” Wang Songshan also laughed. “When I saw you, I remembered the things we did when we both were younger. I really miss it!”
“Yeah, forty years have passed in an instant. We are both old now.” Fang Tian nodded and agreed.
“How long do you plan to stay here?” asked Wang Songshan.
“Not sure. It depends on the whereabouts of that person.” Fang Tian said.
“The one who sent you to the detention hall?” Wang Songshan asked, “Wasn’t that person shot to death already?”
“He wasn’t the master behind the scenes. There are others behind the scenes.” Fang Tian said.
“Who is it?” asked Wang Songshan.
“I’m not sure.” Fang Tian shook his head. “So, I’m still watching.”
“Whatever you want then. If you need help, just say it.” Wang Songshan nodded and said.
“Let’s not talk about this. Come. Let’s have a drink.” Fang Tian raised the glass of wine and the two people said cheers together…
When Yang Ming returned to the dormitory, it was already very late at night. When he first entered the dorm, Tian Donghua greeted him immediately. He said lewdly, “Yang Ming, you just had a beauty looking for you. It seemed like the relationship between her and you was pretty unusual!”
“Beauty?” Yang Ming was stunned.
“Don’t listen to him bllsht. It was Teacher Zhao Ying who came looking for you.” Zhang Bing said, “She seemed to be looking for you for something. She noticed you weren’t here, so she left her phone number and asked you to call her back.”
“Zhao Ying?” Yang Ming felt excited after listening to it. He was planning to find Zhao Ying earlier, so he quickly asked, “Where’s the phone number?”
“Here.” Zhang Bing handed Yang Ming a note.
Yang Ming took a look at it. It was indeed Zhao Ying’s handwriting. That graceful script was something that Yang Ming was very familiar with. There were countless times of after-school tutoring where Zhao Ying used this script to give him corrections.
Looking at the note in front of him, Yang Ming felt rather emotional. He nodded to Zhang Bing, got up and returned to his room.
“What happened to him?” Tian Donghua asked, puzzled.
“What do we know about true love in this world? Zhao Ying was the math teacher of our high school… She and Yang Ming…” Zhang Bing shook his head when he said it.
“F*ck! Really? A teacher? Yang Ming was that strong that even the teacher fell for him?” Tian Donghua looked impressed.
Yang Ming tried hard to calm his feelings down. Then, he dialed the number on the note with his cell phone. The phone call was connected after two rings. A familiar voice came on the other side of the phone. “Hi… hello?”
“Sister Ying, I am Yang Ming.” Yang Ming took a deep breath and spoke. But he could feel that his heart was pounding rapidly, and his hand which was holding the phone was shaking uncontrollably.
“Yang Ming? You are back?” Zhao Ying heard Yang Ming’s voice and said with some surprise.
“Yeah, I just came back. Zhang Bing told me that you looked for me,” replied Yang Ming.
” En , I went to find you… Oh ya. Did you know that I am now a postgraduate student at Song Jiang Industry University…?” Zhao Ying said.
“I know. I went to see Teacher Li the other day and she told me that.” Yang Ming nodded and said. Yang Ming didn’t know why, but suddenly he and Zhao Ying had a strange distant feeling. Was it because we haven’t contacted each other for a long time? Or, am I consciously avoiding something? Or is this just my own illusion?
“Are you free tomorrow? Let’s meet.” Zhao Ying asked.
“Zhao Ying, how’s Jin Gang?” After repressing it for a long while in his heart, Yang Ming had finally asked this question. Yes, ever since seeing Zhao Ying and Jin Gang walking together on the street, Yang Ming’s heart felt like it had a big rock suffocating him.
Yes, it’s Jin Gang! Yang Ming understood it. The gap in the relationship between him and Zhao Ying was because of Jin Gang!
“Jin Gang? He’s probably still teaching at school.” Zhao Ying wondered why Yang Ming would ask about Jin Gang. “How come you suddenly mentioned him?”
“Sister Ying, aren’t you together with Jin Gang?” Yang Ming also felt a bit strange listening to Zhao Ying’s words, as if she had nothing to do with Jin Gang.
“Together with him? In the first place, I really dislike him. How can I be with him?” Zhao Ying didn’t know whether to laugh or cry after listening to him.
“Then the last time on the business street, you and he…” Yang Ming asked hesitantly.
“You were referring to that? The school sent us to book the school uniforms for our new students…” Zhao Ying’s felt warm in her heart. It seemed that Yang Ming still cared about me because he is jealous! He’s jealous of Jin Gang!
However, Zhao Ying became sad after that. So what if Yang Ming cared about me? Now, with Chen Mengyan before me, even if Yang Ming cared about me, Yang Ming can’t give up Chen Mengyan to be with me anyway.
” Ah ! That’s the case…” Yang Ming sighed with relief. The depressed feeling in his heart had disappeared instantly.
“So what do you want?” After a few words between the two, they seemed to have recovered the feeling of bickering in the past without that sense of unfamiliarity.
“Sister Ying, I want to see you.” Yang Ming suddenly said after a quick hesitation.
“See me? Now?” Zhao Ying was stunned.
“Yes, now.” Yang Ming said resolutely. The pining feeling in Yang Ming’s heart burst out in an instant.
“It’s quite late already. I was about to sleep…” Zhao Ying said.
“Last time at this hour, wouldn’t we be studying together often?” asked Yang Ming.
“Alright, where do we meet?” Zhao Ying sighed. She really did miss Yang Ming too. In fact, the reason she applied for the postgraduate study was entirely Yang Ming!
However, before this, she thought that things were simple. Only after she met Chen Mengyan did she realize how complicated things were! Three women had appeared at Yang Ming’s side already!
“I’m in my dorm. Where are you?” asked Yang Ming.
“Let’s do this. Wait for me at the store’s entrance in front of the dormitory.” Zhao Ying said.
After ten minutes, Yang Ming saw Zhao Ying at the entrance of the store not far from the dormitory. Zhao Ying was still so pure and beautiful. Compared to the original sexiness, now that Zhao Ying had more of a student’s vibe, she looked vibrant.
“Sister Ying!” Yang Ming hurriedly greeted her.
“Yang Ming, you look mature now.” Zhao Ying looked up and down at Yang Ming. After a while, only then did she mutter, “You grew up.”
“Sister Ying, I missed you.” Yang Ming said bluntly.
“Well, I missed you, too. Do you still remember your sister as a younger brother?” Zhao Ying deliberately positioned the relationship between the two of them as brother and sister.
“Of course, I have never forgotten you!” Yang Ming handed over a paper bag and said, “This is for you, Sister Ying. This is a set of jewelry I bought from Hong Kong.”
Yang Ming’s was indifferent toward being addressed as a brother. So what if it’s sister? With Xiao Qing’s anecdote of f*ck sister, Yang Ming felt that it was better to have a sister instead.
“You only know how to waste money.” Zhao Ying smiled and took Yang Ming’s gift. “How is college life?”
“Yes, it’s much easier than in high school. There was nothing much to do in a day.” Yang Ming nodded and said, “Sister Ying, how come you thought about studying postgraduate here? Wasn’t it good to be a teacher in high school?”
“Hehe, if I said that I didn’t feel assured that you, my younger brother, would be fine, so I followed you, would you believe it or not?” Zhao Ying deliberately said it as a joke.
“Of course.” Yang Ming nodded. He suddenly turned around again and stared at Zhao Ying’s eyes as he asked, “Sister Ying, tell me the truth. Did you really do it for me?”
Zhao Ying was somewhat moved by Yang Ming’s stare. She shook her head and swallowed the word “yes” that was about to come out. She smiled and said, “I was just kidding with you. You actually took it seriously. I felt that I should learn more while I am still young!”
” Hehe .” Yang Ming laughed. It seemed like I had misunderstood it.
