A feeling called jealousy grew in Li Xiuyu's heart. She wanted to pretend to be Li Zhuangsheng's wife, but she couldn't say it out loud. She could only watch Li Zhuangsheng playing with others, get angry alone, and lock herself in the closet.

Ever since she was nearly abducted that day, Li Xiuyu has been extremely afraid of the dark, especially in a confined space, where she even has trouble breathing. So she was very afraid of the closet, and after the door was closed, she could only wrap herself in clothes and shiver.

But Li Xiuyu was still keen on this behavior. After Li Zhuangsheng made her unhappy, she would treat herself in this almost self-abuse way, full of grievances, waiting for Li Zhuangsheng to find her.

She felt that this self-abuse was a revenge against Li Zhuangsheng. Even though it could not hurt Li Zhuangsheng at all, she still believed without any basis that hurting herself was hurting Li Zhuangsheng himself.

……

So, this time, I will never forgive Li Zhuangsheng! Li Xiuyu said to himself.

He forgot the oath he made. He clearly said that he would always be his first. He clearly said that he would never leave himself alone...

You are lying!

At school, Li Zhuangsheng met with Hu Mengdie. He wanted to know from Hu Mengdie the fundamental reason why Li Xiuyu was so angry.

Originally, Hu Mengdie and Li Xiuyu had no intersection, but the world line has been distorted and reality has long been changed, so it is not surprising for Li Zhuangsheng that Hu Mengdie and Li Xiuyu become best friends. Hu Mengdie is the type who can get along with everyone.

"Have you reported this to your Zhu Zhixue?" Hu Mengdie looked down at the students running like ants downstairs.

The administrative building was empty during the break.

This was the long break after two classes, and it was supposed to be time for physical exercises, but Li Zhuangsheng and Hu Mengdie asked for leave respectively, citing poor health.

"I've reported it, she knows about it." Li Zhuangsheng nodded, and then added, "She's not such a stingy person!"

"Really?"

"Of course!"

"Haha." Hu Mengdie smiled slightly and did not comment.

Li Zhuangsheng heard the profound meaning in Hu Mengdie's laughter. Although he also felt that Zhu Zhixue was a jealous person, he still had to maintain her dignity in front of others, so he pretended not to hear it.

"For so many days...the things I asked you to help with..." Li Zhuangsheng scratched his head.

To be honest, it was so embarrassing. She was my ex-wife whom I had rejected time and again, but now I had to ask her for help again and again.

"I've been helping you find out about this matter..." Hu Mengdie looked a little embarrassed.

"Didn't you find out the answer?" Li Zhuangsheng immediately asked upon seeing this.

"I don't know if it counts..." Hu Mengdie sighed, and then couldn't help but lower her voice, "She must be angry that you didn't come home that night..."

"Uh..." Li Zhuangsheng's face became more and more embarrassed. Hearing these words coming from his ex-wife's mouth really touched him in an inexplicable way.

Fortunately, Hu Mengdie is no longer her future self, otherwise Li Zhuangsheng would probably be dizzy at this moment.

"I... told her at the time that I would be back later and let her sleep first..." Li Zhuangsheng groaned and touched his face, "Even if that's the case, you shouldn't be so angry."

Li Zhuangsheng also knew that the incident started that night, but he didn't think Li Xiuyu would be so angry. Because this kind of thing... at most he would make a scene with him, right?

"You left her alone at home." Hu Mengdie stared into Li Zhuangsheng's eyes. "I really don't know what happened, but she was very concerned about your behavior of not coming home at night and leaving her alone at home. She said you were a liar. What did you lie to her about? Or did you promise her something before?"

Li Zhuangsheng was speechless for a moment, and instinctively wanted to refute. Before rebirth, I was not at home every day. When I was in college, or went to my biological mother's relatives' house... I even moved out after getting married!

But thinking about it, Li Zhuangsheng suddenly felt that this argument was not very convincing. Because when he thought about it carefully, even in his previous life, Li Xiuyu never spent the night alone. Even if he was not at home occasionally, his parents were there. When he went out to study in college, there were five people in the small dormitory, or he simply dragged his luggage and lived with me.

So it seems that this is the first time that Li Xiu Yu stays at home alone.

"I..." Li Zhuangsheng opened his mouth.

Liar, what did I promise her?

"Have you remembered it? Or haven't you remembered it?" Hu Mengdie raised her eyebrows and looked at Li Zhuangsheng.

Li Zhuangsheng remained silent, seemingly thinking.

"I'm not... quite sure either."

"I have said everything I should say...you can handle the rest yourself." Hu Mengdie said with a smile.

"OK, thanks."

"Verbal thanks are too cheap." Hu Mengdie glared at him fiercely, "I am being pitied and laughed at while I am contributing to your relationship with others!"

"Okay, I'll treat you to a big meal when I'm free in the future!" Li Zhuangsheng nodded and promised.

"Forget it, I don't know when I can enjoy your feast." Hu Mengdie rolled her eyes at him.

Li Zhuangsheng exchanged a few pleasantries and, seeing that the running exercise downstairs was almost over, he was the first to leave.

"He is a dishonest liar..." Hu Mengdie murmured while leaning against the windowsill, "He is the most untrustworthy one."

Just like the Chinese Valentine's Day that year, the card in the bouquet I gave her had the words "Shang Xie" printed in gold foil.

Although the mountain league is there, the Jinshu is hard to trust.

……

"Hey, Li Xiu Yu!" Li Zhuangsheng strode to the door of Li Xiu Yu's classroom.

Li Xiuyu had just finished her exercise and her face was covered with sweat. She saw Li Zhuangsheng, was stunned for a moment, then pretended not to see Li Zhuangsheng and walked straight into the classroom.

"I'm talking to you!" Li Zhuangsheng grabbed Li Xiuyu's hand.

The boys around were a little jealous, but since the other party was his brother-in-law, they naturally couldn't say anything. Some of them were curious and deliberately stayed outside to understand the specific situation.

"What are you doing?" Li Xiuyu shook Li Zhuangsheng hard, with a look of disgust on his face. But this time he didn't shake him off, just like before.

"I have something to tell you. Wait for me here at noon!" Li Zhuangsheng said in a firm tone.

"Let go!" Li Xiuyu ignored Li Zhuangsheng's words.

Her eyes were red, and she struggled hard. She finally spoke, but her tone was full of resentment, and she looked at the boys in her class around her with pity.

If not everyone knew Li Zhuangsheng, the brother-in-law, someone would have come up to him to practice.
