Chapter 282: Chapter 282
Zhao Guodong was just about to go up and hit someone. He couldn’t stand this kind of anger, especially when he clearly knew the truth of the matter, yet Fu Lei, this pretty boy, was still blatantly turning black into white. Zhao Guodong didn’t feel pain when he was hit in his life, but he just couldn’t bear the anger.
"Pretty boy, yes, I’m the one who hit you. I’m going to continue hitting you now. Let’s see what you can do to me." He raised his fist and aimed it at Fu Lei’s face. The source of this content ɪs novel·fıre·net
Fu Lei slightly furrowed his brow but didn’t dodge, remaining gentle, "Zhao Guodong, don’t be impulsive. I know you mean well for Ye Ling, but you’re really misunderstanding."
Earlier, Ma Yue thought that this would come to light today, so she stood by Fu Lei’s side and didn’t notice that Ye Ling might overthink. Hearing Fu Lei’s words, and seeing him continue to cover up with a lie, she felt a bit uncomfortable and glanced at Fu Lei again. Could it be that Fu Lei really developed feelings for Ye Ling? But thinking of Fu Lei’s gentleness and consideration for herself over the past few semesters, she felt at ease. Her grandfather was a military commander, her parents both worked in the army, and Ye Ling only had a father in a not so high position in the military. How could Fu Lei possibly be interested in her?
After figuring this out, she slowly stepped two steps away from Fu Lei to create some distance, also afraid of making Ye Ling overthink. Who knew Zhao Guodong, without saying much, was about to hit someone again. Ma Yue tried to move, but Dong Minghui pulled her back, and the two of them focused their gaze on Ye Ling.
Ye Ling did not disappoint them, directly standing in front of Fu Lei. Zhao Guodong’s fist stopped mid-air, just grazing Ye Ling’s face with a gust of wind, "You’re still helping him? Do you know how he treats you?"
Zhao Guodong was both angry and annoyed, desperately wishing to scold Ye Ling awake.
Ma Yue and Dong Minghui breathed a sigh of relief, while a trace of smugness flashed in Fu Lei’s eyes, still advising Ye Ling, "Ye Ling, don’t blame him, he also means well for you. Actually, I’m happy that he cares about you . At least, besides me, there’s someone else who cares about you, so when I’m not by your side, I can be at ease."
The clear understanding of Fu Lei and the willfulness of Zhao Guodong were right before their eyes. Which was better was evident at a glance, naturally, for those who didn’t know the inside story.
"Pretty boy, you don’t need to pretend to be a good person here. Don’t think that by doing this you can fool everyone." Zhao Guodong glared viciously at Ye Ling, "You’re still helping him now? What’s so good about him? Just because he can say a few sweet words? How could you become ? You used to be so smart, and now you’re being played around by them like a fool. Don’t you know that in their eyes, you’re just a clown? Ma Yue and Fu Lei are dating. Fu Lei seduced you to make fun of you, today..."
"Zhao Guodong, stop biting people here. You said Fu Lei is a pretty boy, could I want such a pretty boy? Back in school, who didn’t know I fought with Sui Gang because I scolded Fu Lei? Now you’re badmouthing Fu Lei, making up lies about me and him, do you think anyone will believe you?" Ma Yue interrupted Zhao Guodong’s words directly, fearing he would say them out loud, and immediately glared at Ye Ling, "You know what kind of person Fu Lei is the best, won’t you? Won’t you just believe a few words from others? Then the feelings between you two can’t withstand any hardships."
"Bitch, who are you scolding?" Zhao Guodong shot back immediately.
Ma Yue wasn’t afraid of him, raising her chin, "So what? I said it. If you weren’t lying, what are you afraid of people saying? You’re obviously feeling guilty."
The two of them started arguing here, with Ma Yue not even noticing how a trace of regret flashed in Fu Lei’s eyes when she blocked him, quickly disappearing without leaving a trace of detection and returning to calmness.
Zhao Guodong didn’t bother to pay attention to Ma Yue, only turning back to look at Ye Ling, "You heard what I said just now. They really teamed up to deceive you. They already told me at the train station, while you were deep in love with him."
Zhao Guodong pointed a finger at Fu Lei, "He and Ma Yue were laughing at you behind your back."
On the side, Ma Yue wanted to rebut but was stopped by a glance from Fu Lei, who then spoke, "Ye Ling, today did allow for Zhao Guodong’s misunderstanding because of me."
But he didn’t explain any further.
Zhao Guodong saw him still pretending here, grinding his teeth in anger so hard they rattled. All of them turned their gaze to Ye Ling, now waiting for Ye Ling to speak after whom she believed.
Dong Minghui and Ma Yue couldn’t help but feel nervous. Although Zhao Guodong appeared to be the unreasonable one at the moment, who knew if people from his compound would believe his words.
Ye Ling’s face was full of coldness, raising her hand to point outside the door, "You should leave."
The one being driven away was Zhao Guodong.
Ma Yue and Dong Minghui smiled, breathing a sigh of relief, while a victorious smile appeared on Fu Lei’s face as well. Although his smile didn’t seem different from usual, in Zhao Guodong’s eyes, Fu Lei was mocking him.
None of this was important. The important thing was that Ye Ling didn’t believe him, but instead believed Fu Lei. This was what hurt Zhao Guodong, he seemed to hear the sound of his heart breaking, his face pale as he looked directly at Ye Ling, his eyes full of shock, disappointment, and more hurt.
"Why?" He asked, unwilling to give up.
Even though they didn’t grow up together, were the feelings from these past few years fake? Even if she didn’t like him and liked someone else, couldn’t she at least believe him?
Zhao Guodong softly said, lacking force, reflecting the last bit of strength left in his body in the face of Ye Ling’s distrust.
"Please leave," Ye Ling repeated the same phrase, even turning her head away to avoid looking at Zhao Guodong.
"I’m really a fool." He spoke softly, and then Zhao Guodong leapt up like a mad lion, "I am a fool."
The words roared out, and Zhao Guodong rushed past Ye Ling with unbelievable speed, punching straight towards Fu Lei’s face fiercely. Fu Lei didn’t dodge this time, staggering a few steps back but failing to keep his balance, directly falling to the ground.
Ma Yue and Dong Minghui screamed, "Lunatic."
Ma Yue was about to help Fu Lei, but Dong Minghui stopped her. Ma Yue glared hard at Dong Minghui, who subtly explained, "That’s Ye Ling’s boyfriend, we shouldn’t go over there, it wouldn’t be good to let Ye Ling misunderstand."
Ma Yue glanced at Ye Ling, then at Fu Lei on the ground, finally refraining from pulling Fu Lei up. But Zhao Guodong was still unsatisfied, lifting his leg to kick towards Fu Lei again, but was blocked by Ye Ling, who pulled on Zhao Guodong’s sleeve and raised her hand to slap Zhao Guodong’s face hard.
With a resounding ’slap’, the mad Zhao Guodong finally quieted down.
Zhao Guodong touched his slapped face, the stinging pain was no illusion, and the furious Ye Ling before him was real too. Calmed down, Zhao Guodong couldn’t stay any longer, turning to rush out the door.
