Chapter 335

Wu Xiaohua had always been shy and did not like to cause trouble. At this moment, she might have put Wang Li in her own mother's position, so she felt particularly unpleasant to look at.

"I'm telling you, woman, are you done? Let's go our separate ways, this isn't your home. If you don't like what you see then leave, why do you have to force my brother Liu to leave? Who do you think you are? If you were his wife I'd have nothing to say, but you're not even his wife anymore yet you still want to control him. You've got some nerve!"

Thinking back to the past, Wang Li used to follow Zhi Xia around to check on his business as well.

But that didn't mean she could be unreasonable in front of him now.

Liu Xuan was his person now, and with Liu Xuan's arrival, he had more helpers and more advice, even his business was improving.

Just a moment ago he was thinking of letting his dad see what he'd accomplished when he got back, but then Wang Li came and interrupted his plans. Wasn't that purely to annoy him?

"You..." Wang Li looked at Wu Xiaohua angrily, gritted her teeth, and left in a huff.

Wu Xiaohua was really worried that Liu Xuan would leave at this point, so she quickly advised him, "Don't let this woman brainwash you. She's so arrogant, but she looks down on you. Let's work hard together, and when we've made money, we won't take her back even if she begs us. Women like her are ruthless and cold-hearted, she'll get her lesson someday..."

Wu Xiaohua didn't usually like to bring up things like this, but Liu Xuan was different. She had to advise him more, otherwise he might follow the same old path as her dad in the future.

Thinking about it, Wu Xiaohua couldn't help but feel some empathy.

Liu Xuan also didn't expect Wu Xiaohua to have such a convoluted past. No wonder she looked down on Wang Li so much. At the same time, Liu Xuan felt more empathy for Wu Xiaohua as well. He couldn't help but think of his own daughter back home, and slowly put himself in Wu Xiaohua's position.

In the classroom, Wang Li arrived a little late.

Luckily the teacher today was easygoing, and just let her take a seat.

After class, Wang Li asked Zhi Xia, "Do you know Liu Xuan is helping Wu Xiaohua with work at her place?"

"Just found out this morning, I'm quite surprised too." Zhi Xia said.

"Zhi Xia, I know Wu Xiaohua respects you a lot. Can you..."

"I can't." Zhi Xia interrupted her before Wang Li could finish speaking, "Just because she respects me doesn't mean I can take advantage of that respect to make unreasonable requests of her. Also, Liu Xuan and I have no enmity. "

Wang Li fell silent.

She knew herself that her idea was perhaps too much, but with Liu Xuan staying here, he was like a ticking time bomb that could go off at any moment. Not only that, he even wanted to stay forever and bring his child over too.

But Zhi Xia's decisiveness also let her know that Zhi Xia would not help her.

"Zhi Xia, Li Fei and I have broken up from the start, are you satisfied now?"

Zhi Xia turned to look at her, "There's no satisfaction or not. Wang Li, we've been friends for so long, I still have to advise you - live up to your conscience. Think about An MeiYun back then, if her scheming had succeeded, what would have happened to you and me? People can be selfish, but they can't force others into desperation because of their own selfishness!"

This was the final advice she gave as a friend.

At the same time, their journey of friendship also ended here.

Moreover, it was unlikely that she had deep feelings for Li Fei either. Otherwise she wouldn't have accepted him at such a critical juncture, she was merely using Li Fei's love for her to give herself peace of mind, while also letting Liu Xuan give up.

What surprised Zhi Xia was that after school, she was stopped again.

But this time, the person stopping her was Li Fei. "Zhi Xia, can we talk?" Li Fei got off his bike and looked at her asking.

Zhi Xia nodded, also getting off her bike and walking alongside him, "You want to talk about Wang Li?"

"I'm just confused, what exactly is she thinking? Yesterday at noon she said she wanted to date me, but in the afternoon she said she was too rash and hadn't thought it through, that we should forget it... " Li Fei laughed self-deprecatingly, he really didn't know what to say, "Tell me what's wrong with me that makes her toy with me like a monkey? I was so happy yesterday, even arrogantly said I'd treat the whole class to ice cream, but then this happened in the afternoon. I bet in less than two days, I, Li Fei, will become the laughingstock of the whole school. Did I offend her somehow?"

Zhi Xia had thought Wang Li would confess to him about her previous marriage, she didn't expect that Wang Li had directly asked to break up.

No wonder Li Fei was so upset.

If it happened to anyone, they'd probably feel like they were being toyed with.

"It's not your fault." Zhi Xia said, "Most of the regrets in life actually stem from being unsuitable for each other. The road ahead is still long, you'll eventually meet the right one. Try to look on the bright side."

"I want to look on the bright side too, but I just can't." Li Fei said in frustration, rubbing his forehead, "Forget it, I won't make things difficult for you. I'm going first."

Zhi Xia got on her bike as well, and was about to leave when she saw Pei JianGuo up ahead, intently gazing at her with a girl by his side.

Pei JianGuo stood in front, his handsome visage a little haggard, adding a touch of fragile beauty. The girl beside him wore a green skirt with white top - that style was designed by Su Ying.

Although Zhi Xia didn't have much talent for fashion design, having seen a lot, she was able to provide some insightful opinions that Su Ying always felt were very reasonable, even thinking she had talent and wanted to take her on as an apprentice.

She had also seen most of Su Ying's design folios, and this dress was one she had just designed recently. The colors and styling were suitable for the current season, looking fresh and youthful.

"JianGuo, what are you looking at? Do you know that woman?" The woman looked in Zhi Xia's direction, with some wary defensiveness in her eyes.

That woman riding the bike was too beautiful, a gentle, mild kind of beauty without any aggression.

It was precisely this kind of appearance that could easily leave a good impression on both genders.

But now, her dating partner was staring at another woman, which clearly made her feel embarrassed.

It wasn't until Pei JianGuo explained, "That's my aunt."
