Chapter 407: You Could Charm the Pants Off Me (2)

Everyone couldn’t stop groaning about how strict the new military training instructor was.

Nonetheless, they could only obey the instructor’s instructions and train for their drills seriously, and nobody dared to defy the instructor anymore.

Xu Yuan and Liu Xu were sent back to Capital University. When Professor Xu and his wife came to know of this, they felt utterly disgraced by Xu Yuan.

“Xu Yuan, I’ll apply for a university abroad on your behalf. Why don’t you further your studies abroad?”

As Professor Xu was a renowned figure in the academic world, he was also fairly famous abroad, and it was an easy feat for him to secure a spot in a university overseas for Xu Yuan.

However, Xu Yuan declined, “No, I’m not going overseas.”

Unable to contain her rage, Mother Xu struck her across the face.

“How much longer do you intend to keep up with this? Sure, you might not find it embarrassing, but your father and I have had enough of humiliation.”

“I like him. What’s so embarrassing about liking him?”

Xu Yuan broke down and bawled. ‘I’m the aggrieved one. Why are they hitting down my confidence instead of standing on my side?’ she thought.

‘I don’t have parents like these,’ she concluded.

“Besides, this is my business. You guys should stay out of it,” she retorted.

Xu Yuan marched out and slammed the door shut.

She felt certain that she would be able to find the right opportunity.

Liu Xu received the same treatment as Xu Yuan back in her own home. The Liu family was distantly related to the Xie and Li families, which formed the core of the clan.

“Aunt, why didn’t you help me out? Uncle Xie...”

Li Zhiwei, who was sitting by the side, replied, “Liu Xu, how do you expect me to help you?”

“What gives them the rights to send me back? That wh*re is still seducing the instructor back there.”

Liu Xu was fuming and couldn’t find it in her to accept the fact that Li Qingcang held Ye Tianxin in high regard.

Liu Xu’s mother, Li Yunfei, reprimanded disapprovingly, “Xu, how could you speak to your aunt like that?”

Upon hearing her mother’s criticisms, Liu Xu instantly fell silent and apologized sheepishly, “Aunt, I’m sorry.”

“It’s not your fault.”

Li Zhiwei’s head was throbbing with pain. She knew that she should never have acceded to Xie Xuning’s request.

She knew what kind of person Xie Xuning was, and that her pleas for forgiveness would certainly fall flat.

However, she simply couldn’t bear to miss the opportunity, for she heard that he had returned.

She yearned to listen to his voice.

“Sister Fei, you had better take Liu Xu in hand. She’s too willful.”

After Li Zhiwei left Li Yunfei’s house, she made her way to Xie Xuning’s favorite park.

There was a sea of green bamboos in the park, and one would be welcomed by a cool, invigorating zephyr upon entering the bamboo forest.

The breeze brought with it the refreshing scent of bamboo leaves.

Xie Xuning was seated on a long bench alone, and Li Zhiwei could spot him from afar. She then slowed down her pace and made her way over to him.

“Brother Xu.”

Xie Xuning appeared to be lost in thoughts and was slightly surprised to be interrupted.

“Is something wrong?”

Li Zhiwei’s heart wrenched when she heard his reply. A long time had passed, and yet he still continued to have a lukewarm attitude towards her.

“Brother Xu, I’m so sorry about what Liu Xu had done.”

Li Zhiwei apologized to Xie Xuning for calling him in the middle of the night.

Xie Xuning, who was staring at Li Zhiwei fervently, stiffened.

“Zhiwei, you know that I’ll never remarry in this lifetime.”

Xie Xuning’s words pierced deeply into Li Zhiwei’s heart like a dagger, and she could almost hear the sound of blood spurting out from her chest.

“Brother Xu, you don’t have to beat around the bush.”

Xie Xuning’s expression froze, and he replied seriously, “Don’t wait for me. Find yourself a good man and get married.”
