”I can only do this ht vanished, Wen Jiubo walked towards us froolden bells he held into my astonished mother's hand

”I put a charm on Shanqiu” Wen Jiubo said cal in her body shows any sign of hatching, then these bells will ring”

”T-that…” My et a word out, as if wary of those bells She looked unwilling to accept them

”I've done what I needed to do, if you don't care about your own sister's life or death, then you can throw them away, I don't care” Wen Jiubo's words were fairly cold, if I didn't understand hiry ”You were the cause of how she is now, between the blurred line of the living In the future what you do is up to you”

After rier ”You! What sort of tone is that to take with your elder? What do you mean by that?!”

”I believe what Iclose to my mother, eyes sharp like the blade of a knife ”And also, auntie I need to correct you Before me, you are the one who's actually more junior”

After Wen Jiubo thren these words, he left therily

”You bastard! Who do you think you are! Get back here! How dare you say that?!”

My heart raced I looked at one I was just about to take a step when my mother's yell stopped me in place

”Gu Yu! If you dare to follow him, then you needn't ever return, do you hear me?”

I sed and turned around to look beseechingly atat me with fierce hatred

”I dare you to take another step!”

I breathed in deeply, voice low, ”Mom, I'm sorry”

And then I followed Wen Jiubo's path,strides

I didfrom behind me as I ran in the direction that Wen Jiubo had vanished in

”Wen Jiubo!” I yelled loudly

Turning a corner, I alht into Wen Jiubo He had stopped as if waiting for me to catch up

”Let's go If we don't go now then on't have enough tie things while he s me even madder

”What were you doing just then?!” I hollered ”No matter what, that's my mom How can you talk to her like that?!”

”It was because she's your mother that I was polite” Wen Jiubo's expression cal more serious ”The ones responsible for how your second aunt is right now is no other than your family You should understand this very well”

I couldn't speak for aat Wen Jiubo

”Anyway, forcing you to dress like a girl and then using you as an outlet for her anger if the slightest thing goes wrong, I don't think you need her” Wen Jiubo said lightly ”If she really disowns you just because you ran off to follow me, then she should quit her position as your mother”

”You say those things easily enough!” I was so angry I shook, forcing out the words, ”You can say that because you don't have aif I leave my family! I can't even return to school nohat do you want me to do? Become homeless on the streets?”

But Wen Jiubo didn't seeered by me Instead, he asked calmly, ”Is that so? Who says you can't return to school?”

I froze, not understanding theof those words for a moment ”About that, my mother applied for me to withdraw from school and also withdrew me from my dorm at the same time, I think”

Wen Jiubo was silent for ait out for me to see ”Your application for withdrawal from school? Is this it?”

My eyes widened and I snatched the file from his hands Black ink on white paper, wasn't this clearly my withdrawal application?

”What happened?” I raised my head to look at him

”Your mother did indeed send the withdrawal application to the school And your school's administration did indeed receive it But, how do I say this… ?” Wen Jiubo stroked his chin ”A er from your human resources depart down your withdrawal application”

Following that, Wen Jiubo raised his eyebrows and ripped up that withdrawal application into tiny pieces, right in front of my eyes

This surprise ca to believe it ”T-then, that means… I can return to school?”

Wen Jiubo sht Not only that, I've already helped you to buy your train ticket The train leaves this afternoon at three, so that's why I said we should hurry We don't have much time”

I didn't even dare to believe my ears By the time I could react, the corners offor the sky

”I can return to Yan City!!”
