I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 119 This should be the last time I come here...

"..."

After Zhou Heng spoke, Zhu Tao and Xi Manni were both stunned, standing motionless with their eyes wide open and mouths agape.

After regaining her composure, Xi Manni looked at Zhu Tao and asked in surprise:

"No... Sister! Your ex-husband is that amazing? This... this is considered poor grades? This is considered poor grades? What, does your family want you to marry Einstein?"

Zhou Heng was also watching Zhu Tao's reaction, wanting to see what she would think after learning the result.

This might reveal whether her mother's idea or her own was the reason they broke up because of their grades. If it was her own idea, what kind of obvious expression would she have?

But after a moment, Zhu Tao smiled faintly and said calmly:

"Well... congratulations to him. Knowing he did well puts my mind at ease."

Seeing Zhu Tao like this, the other three also felt bad.

It seems clear that Zhu Tao has endured a lot in the past two years.

"Does he... have a girlfriend now? Or someone he likes?"

"Uh?"

Zhou Heng grinned, revealing an embarrassed expression. He turned to look at Yin Mengran beside him and saw that she also looked embarrassed.

Not long ago, Liao Haomiao said he liked Yin Mengran and even confessed his feelings to her...

Although he gave up quickly, it's something that can't be erased.

Perhaps in Liao Haomiao's heart, he had already decided that there was no possibility of a relationship with Zhu Tao, and that they might never see each other again.

It's understandable that he might fall for someone else, but if Zhu Tao were to tell him, she would definitely be heartbroken...

After all, she had been so devoted to this opportunity, while Liao Haomiao had already started to like someone else. Anyone would feel heartbroken.

"No, he doesn't have a girlfriend, I can guarantee that. Besides, he still can't forget you, it's just... he's afraid to face you, after all, he was dumped once..."

Zhou Heng quickly tried to explain for Liao Haomiao, saying that he thought about what he was saying several times before speaking, afraid that he might say something wrong.

"Will he... still remember me? I've hurt him so much, how could he possibly still remember me..."

Zhu Tao lowered her head and muttered to herself softly.

She said this aloud, but deep down, she felt a sliver of hope that Zhou Heng would say something.

If only what he said was true...

"It's true! When he told me about you two, he talked a lot about how he felt at the time. He said..."

"Zhou Heng!"

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out from behind Zhou Heng, calling his name loudly.

Upon hearing this voice, Zhou Heng frowned, his heart skipping a beat.

Zhu Tao looked in the direction of the sound, and was stunned the moment she saw the person.

He opened his mouth blankly, his lips moved but he couldn't utter a single word.

The person before her was none other than the one she had been longing for day and night. Her image of him was still frozen in time two years ago.

The person in front of her had changed drastically, but she still recognized him immediately...

"Liao Haomiao..."

Zhou Heng turned his head and saw Liao Haomiao standing behind him, his face solemn and his expression serious.

Then, he walked straight over, reached out and grabbed Zhou Heng's arm, and said:

"Let's go."

"Oh..."

Zhou Heng didn't say anything, just nodded and responded softly. Then he gave Yin Mengran a look, and she immediately understood and left with Zhou Heng.

Xi Manni reached out her hand, trying to call them back:

"Eh!"

But before she could say anything, Zhu Tao tugged at her arm.

When she turned her gaze to Zhu Tao, she saw Zhu Tao gently shake her head, pursing her lips, and saying nothing.

"No...you're just letting them go like that? You finally got to see Liao Haomiao, weren't you going crazy missing him? And now you're letting him leave?"

Xi Manni was very puzzled. They had waited and searched for so long, and now that they had finally found it, why wasn't Zhu Tao seizing the opportunity?

Zhu Tao looked down, her eyes dimming, nodded, and said softly:

"Yes, and... this should be the last time I come here..."

"Are you...are you serious?"

Xi Manni's pupils dilated slightly, her eyes filled with disbelief. She didn't understand what Zhu Tao was thinking, but judging from her expression, she probably wasn't joking...

"Okay, so, stay with me a little longer. He has a race number on him, so there should be a game soon. Watch it with me until the end, then we'll go..."

Xi Manni nodded slowly and whispered:

"Okay, I'll watch as long as you want, I'll keep you company."

After Liao Haomiao pulled Zhou Heng away, they went to the back of the building, where no one was now.

He released Zhou Heng's arm, glanced back at him, then looked at Yin Mengran beside him, as if he wanted to say something.

Zhou Heng took a deep breath, looked at Yin Mengran, and said, "You go back to class first and help me deal with Teacher Wang. Thank you..."

Yin Mengran nodded obediently and replied, "Okay, I understand."

Then, he left, leaving Zhou Heng and Liao Haomiao behind.

After Yin Mengran had walked away, Liao Haomiao finally spoke and asked:

What were you doing just now?

"To repay your favor, since I think you still have feelings for her, I thought I'd put in a good word for you. If I've done something wrong, then I apologize to you."

Zhou Heng answered honestly that he didn't know if his thinking was right. If he was wrong, then he could only say that he had been meddling in other people's business again. It was normal that he had no friends because he always did such things.

Liao Haomiao didn't say anything, but just sighed and said helplessly:

"Okay, it's nothing, just please don't do this kind of thing again. There's no future between us..."

"Are you being so absolute in your statement because you don't like her?"

"No... it's that our feelings have changed, we can't go back, there's no need to think about it anymore."

Zhou Heng tilted his head and asked in confusion:

"Huh? Bro, the last time you two were in a relationship was two years ago, in middle school. What heinous crime did you commit? Why can't you go back to that?"

Liao Haomiao pursed her lips speechlessly, rolled her eyes at him, and said irritably:

"It's me! I've changed, okay? Why do I have to spell it out so clearly..."

"you've changed?"

"Yeah, it's been two years already, and she's still thinking about me. How am I supposed to repay her feelings? I even pursued your girlfriend before. Now that she's here, am I just supposed to shamelessly accept her? Is that fair to her?"
