To make He Yu regret - Chapter 44

He felt like he was back in kindergarten. When he was good with her, she always let him have her snacks first. Many years have passed, her method of buying people’s hearts hadn’t changed at all, but He Yu was no longer the little boy who would be greedy by snacks.

“No need.” He refused again.

“If you don’t eat, they will go to waste. I will bring new ones to school tomorrow.” Jiang Xiaozhen said, and forcefully stuffed an egg yolk pie into his arms.

He Yu didn’t understand, “Why?”

“My mother buys them for me.” She stuffed a bag of shrimp crackers again.

It would cost a lot of money to buy those things every day… he thought about it, but swallowed those words.

“You take it back, share them with your parents.”

He put the egg yolk pie and shrimp crackers back into her plastic bag.

“They specifically asked me to give them to friends.” Seeing his resolute attitude, it would be boring to push around, so Jiang Xiaozhen gave up.

“Well, don’t forget, I’m going to the girls’ space to find my friends.”

He Yu knew the shop she was talking about. He saw her and the girls come out of the shop last time. Jiang Xiaozhen packed her school bag and walked towards the school gate with He Yu. They were two arms apart, and they didn’t talk to each other. They were fine being close when they took out the trash, but in a blink of an eye the atmosphere became intense again. The only tacit understanding between the two was that they wanted to say goodbye to each other as soon as possible.

The girl’s space, in powder blue colour, was just across the street. He Yu stopped and said goodbye to Jiang Xiaozhen.

“Have fun, goodbye.”

It seemed that everyone except her felt that he was gentle, polite and temperamental. But if he was really good-tempered, Jiang Xiaozhen thought but he always looked angry to her. She could feel his politeness with a trace of nobleness that resisted her. It was clear to her that he didn’t want to be with her. He stepped back to draw a line and told her from a reserved distance that she wasn’t his race since childhood.

Jiang Xiaozhen didn’t say goodbye. He thought that she was dissatisfied as he didn’t accept what she gave. He Yu decided to leave. She turned her face and couldn’t help it.

Jiang Xiaozhen muttered. She didn’t know if he was gone or if he was listening.

“At the beginning, I think you have changed a lot compared to when you were a kid. When you were a kid, you had a round face, like an ordinary little steamed bun, as a grown up, you look so good, and your face is now angular and not round at all. I saw you twice, and every time I saw you, you hesitated and stopped, it was not like that when you were a kid.”

“I always remember that I and you were friends.” After a pause, she laughed mockingly.

“In retrospect, it doesn’t seem to be the case. It was when I was young.”

Jiang Xiaozhen let out a deep breath, “Forget it, you can go.”

“It’s not good to spend your parents’ hard money.” He said in a stern voice.

“Friends can’t be bought with money. You should also consider your parents. In the past, your family had money, and they used it for you and could afford the expenses. You are still able to attend this school and how much tuition did you think they are paying? Do you know? I saw you and you don’t cherish the days of school. You attend such a good school and spend your parents’ money to make friends and compare with others. All your school bags are for food and toys. You have no thoughts after school. Study. These are my one-sided speculations. If I make a mistake, I am willing to be scolded by you and I am willing to hear you clarify.”

At that moment, He Yu let out all the prejudices under gentleness and politeness at once, and what he said was vicious and poisonous, showing his sharp edge. There was no smile on that beautiful face, he said to her with his chin held up slightly.

“If I’m not wrong… To be honest, Jiang Xiaozhen, I look down on you.” Just like the sentence, ‘I would never marry you,’ ten years ago, He Yu’s last sentence made her feel very cordial.

“Yes, yes, you are right.” Jiang Xiaozhen shook her head and pretended to be playful, and her expression was extremely exaggerated.

“I don’t cherish school days at all. I don’t want to go to school. I just want to make friends and play with them. My life pursuit was to be happy every day. You understand that right? hahaha.”
