Chapter 553

On the way to the Peking University cafeteria, Li Heng looked at the lovely person walking in front and kept thinking.

Thinking about the real intention of Song Yu going to Lushan Village next Dragon Boat Festival?

Celebrating his birthday must be true.

But it probably wasn't just that simple.

Logically speaking, with Song Yu's Buddhist-like personality, she basically wouldn't clash with his female confidantes.

Even when she learned that Mai Sui had developed feelings for him, she didn't blame him too much, and didn't even say a single overly harsh word to him.

But now she took the initiative to propose going to Lushan Village to celebrate his birthday. It was truly the first time, breaking his understanding of her.

As the saying goes: people who are kind are bullied, horses that are kind are ridden.

When a person is too kind, what the opponent gives is not respect and stopping at the right point, but only encroaching oppression. Perhaps Song Yu realized this, so she decided to counterattack the joint efforts of Chen Zijin and Xiao Han.

Isn't there a good saying, offense is often the best defense. She wanted her own territory to be peaceful, wanted her future life not to be disturbed, Song Yu knew, she had to make a decent counterattack.

So she crossed the river and went directly to Shanghai, to Xiao Han's base camp.

As for the purpose, it goes without saying.

They had agreed on a three-person alliance before, to resist new love rivals together. But she really never expected that just by getting Li Heng's favor, she would be met with the joint efforts of Chen Zijin and Xiao Han to deal with her.

The first shot of the alliance wasn't fired at the love rivals outside, but at "their own people." Even a clay figurine has a temper, let alone the always proud and reserved Song Yu.

Song Yu had vaguely suspected: before, Chen Zijin and Xiao Han pulled her in, perhaps just wanting to push her out as an arrow, to attract the firepower of those love rivals outside. Then they hid behind the scenes to reap the benefits.

And that was the case.

Song Yu had the best temperament, the most beautiful appearance, and was the most favored by Li Heng. In Xiao Han's eyes: Song Yu was a natural living target, a natural big killer to deal with Yu Laoshi, Mai Sui, and Zhou Shihe.

In fact, Xiao Han really hit the mark this time:

For example, Yu Laoshi had always wanted to get the same status as Song Yu, which was why she delayed resigning and delayed having a further relationship with Li Heng.

And Song Yu and Mai Sui were the best girlfriends in high school; Song Yu had an innate psychological advantage over Mai Sui.

As for Zhou Shihe, Chen Zijin and Xiao Han were a bit unsure, and only Song Yu had the strength to wrestle with her, to contain, or even suppress Zhou Shihe.

To completely nip the budding feelings between Li Heng and Zhou Shihe in the cradle.

To make Zhou Shihe retreat in the face of difficulties.

Of course, this "difficulty" didn't mean using Song Yu's absolute strength to force Zhou Shihe. Because Song Yu and Zhou Shihe were evenly matched, neither had overwhelming strength.

In Xiao Han's heart, this "difficulty" referred to a momentum: let Zhou Shihe see the current situation clearly, who does Li Heng love the most? There was another woman beside Li Heng who could rival her, Zhou Shihe; she, Zhou Shihe, didn't have uniqueness.

According to Xiao Han's preset: seeing the real Song Yu, Zhou Shihe would either refuse Li Heng's kindness in the future and proudly not enter the game.

Or, Zhou Shihe would directly confront Song Yu, and the two women would fight to the death.

In fact, Song Yu had always been vigilant about this: Xiao Han and Chen Zijin joined forces to deal with her, forcing her to counterattack, forcing her to go to Shanghai, was this also part of the two women's plan? Was the purpose to let her face Zhou Shihe directly?

But no matter what?

Even if this was another scheme by Chen Zijin and Xiao Han, a chain of plots, Song Yu wasn't afraid at all, and she accepted it.

Just because she loved purely, her heart was already full, and she cared very much about this man.

And because of the Song family, she really had no way out.

As for whether she would follow the route planned by Xiao Han and Chen Zijin in the future? Song Yu had her own ideas.

Peking University cafeteria.

It was about 20 minutes before the end of the eighth class, and there weren't many people in the cafeteria.

After getting their food, Li Heng followed Song Yu to a corner of the cafeteria.

At this time, Xiao Feng was already there. Looking at the food in her lunch box, she must have just arrived not long ago.

Seeing them appear, Xiao Feng greeted them happily, "Song Yu, you're here, I thought you weren't coming."

Song Yu smiled faintly and sat down.

Li Heng asked curiously, "Did you know I was coming?"

Xiao Feng said, "How famous are you, don't you know? You came to Peking University with roses in your hands, and I heard about you from my roommate in less than 15 minutes."

Li Heng thought secretly, at this speed of spread, Chen Zijin probably knows too, right?

Coming north this time, should he go find Chen Zijin?

In fact, his original intention was: every time he came to the capital, he would only look for one person, either Song Yu or Chen Zijin, taking turns.

After talking to Song Yu for a while, Xiao Feng turned to Li Heng: "Didn't you just come back from Aba, how do you have time to come to Peking University to find Song Yu at this hour? Haven't you read the newspapers, many people are guessing the subject of your new book."

Li Heng blocked Xiao Feng's mouth with just one sentence, grinning happily: "Look at how you ask that, no matter how busy things are, they aren't as important as Song Yu. She is worth me putting down everything in my hands anytime, anywhere."

Xiao Feng looked at Song Yu, then at him, and muttered: "As expected of a great writer, you really have a way!"

Not wanting this girl to ask him too many emotional questions, Li Heng decided to take the initiative in the conversation and asked: "You've been at Peking University for a year and a half, have you met anyone you like?"

Song Yu seemed to perceive his thoughts, and at this time smiled and cooperated: "Two boys have been pursuing Xiao Feng."

Li Heng's eyes widened, and he said with interest: "Really? Tell me about it."

Xiao Feng put her chopsticks on the bottom of the bowl, hesitated for a while and said: "Compared to your thousands of admirers, mine are not worth mentioning at all. One is a junior, from Tianjin; one is in the same grade as me, Li Yang, from Chengdu."

Knowing the basic information, Li Heng asked: "Then do you have anyone you like?"

Xiao Feng shook her head: "The senior's personality is a bit too lively; Li Yang is the opposite, a bit rigid, he studies mathematics."

Li Heng understood: "The senior is too lively, you have no sense of security; Li Yang is an academic talent, dull and uninteresting? Right?"

Xiao Feng nodded: "Yes, that's what I think."

Li Heng sighed and joked: "It seems these two men have no chance. Next time you introduce them, don't say the names of those who have no chance, too lazy to remember."

Xiao Feng laughed, "Liu Li will come over later."

Li Heng was startled, subconsciously thinking of Chen Zijin, would Chen Zijin come?

Song Yu had the same thought as him and looked up at Xiao Feng.

The atmosphere was a bit subtle for a while, Xiao Feng hurriedly said to Li Heng: "Liu Li is coming specifically to find you. Just him alone."

Hearing this, Song Yu shared half of the steamed egg in her bowl with Li Heng and continued to eat slowly.

Li Heng asked: "What is he looking for me for?"

Suddenly, Xiao Feng waved her hand toward the door, then got up to help Liu Li get food, saying as she got up: "There, Liu Li is here, ask him yourself."

Liu Li was still the same, skinny, walked over, sat down, and greeted Song Yu: "Song Yu, you are still the most charming, I heard the news that the great writer came to find you even at Renmin University."

Song Yu smiled beautifully, answering the question irrelevantly: "Are you the only one coming today, your senior sister didn't come?"

The senior sister she mentioned was the local girl from the capital who had a crush on Liu Li.

Liu Li touched his forehead and said honestly: "Hey, Song Yu, don't tease me. I have self-knowledge. That senior sister is a local, even if she is interested in me, her family will definitely not agree."

Song Yu asked thoughtfully: "Didn't they say her father's attitude toward you was pretty good? Could it be that others in her family made things difficult for you?"

Liu Li smiled bitterly: "Her father is okay, but her mother often gives me a hard time, I gave up long ago."

Song Yu felt sorry for him after hearing this, and just as she was about to comfort him, her peripheral vision caught an unexpected person, Chen Zitong.

That's right, the person who came was Chen Zijin's younger sister, Chen Zitong.

Song Yu saw it, and later Li Heng and Liu Li saw it too, watching Chen Zitong walk across the cafeteria toward them step by step.

Liu Li was embarrassed and explained in a low voice: "Li Heng, I don't know about her, if I knew she would follow me secretly, I wouldn't have come today."

Li Heng knew Liu Li's character, so naturally he wouldn't doubt this, and waved his hand to indicate it was okay.

After about 20 seconds, Chen Zitong came to the three of them, first looking at Song Yu, then at Li Heng, directly ignoring Liu Li.

Later, Chen Zitong sat in the seat next to Li Heng and said as soon as she opened her mouth: "Brother-in-law, I have no money to eat."

Li Heng: "..."

He immediately took out the money he had just withdrawn yesterday from his pocket and stuffed it all into her pocket.

Chen Zitong sat still, pouting and acting like a spoiled child: "I'm hungry now."

Hearing this, Song Yu smiled and got up: "Zitong, wait a moment, I'll go get you some food." Song Yu and Chen Zitong were not strangers to each other. When Chen Zijin was in her second year of high school, Chen Zitong had just gone to Shaoshi No. 1 High School for her first year.

Because Song Yu and Chen Zijin were good girlfriends at that time, Chen Zitong naturally had dealings with Song Yu.

Watching Song Yu leave, Chen Zitong muttered: "Haven't seen her for more than two years, Sister Song has become much more beautiful, seeing her, I feel I'm not beautiful anymore."

Li Heng echoed: "Zitong, you are also quite beautiful."

Chen Zitong's eyes lit up: "Really?"

Li Heng nodded, "If you don't believe me, ask Liu Li."

Liu Li echoed: "No need to ask, Zitong is a famous beauty among the freshmen at Renmin University, our roommates have discussed it."

Chen Zitong covered her mouth and laughed: "Brother Liu Li really knows how to talk, I didn't know I was so beautiful."

With a "Brother Liu Li," Liu Li's face was almost blushed.

But Chen Zitong's next sentence made the atmosphere at the table extremely awkward, as she said to Li Heng in a strange tone: "Since brother-in-law doesn't look down on my sister anymore, how about I be your girlfriend?"

Li Heng: "..."

Liu Li: "..."

Li Heng and Liu Li were not stupid, they both heard Chen Zitong's sarcasm.

Sarcasm that Li Heng came to Peking University to find Song Yu, but didn't go to Renmin University to find her sister. Chen Zitong came with anger.

Before, she always thought Li Heng was a good man, wholeheartedly good to her sister.

But since entering Renmin University, her worldview had shattered, her brother-in-law was actually stepping on two boats.

The problem was: she went to find her sister, but her sister said things weren't as simple as they appeared, and she didn't need to worry about it.

Liu Li was so scared that he hurriedly checked the situation around him. Fortunately! At this time, the 8th class hadn't ended yet, and there was only their table in this corner, no one else around. No one could hear Chen Zitong's words.

Li Heng sorted out his thoughts and asked: "Where is your sister?"

Chen Zitong countered: "Brother-in-law, do you hope she comes, or do you hope she doesn't come?"

Li Heng was silent.

Without waiting for his reply, Chen Zitong said: "My sister was picked up by Sister Lanlan and went to Gulou for dinner."

Sister Lanlan refers to Li Lan.

Li Heng's heart was clear, it was estimated that his second sister also heard the news that he had come to Peking University, so she took the initiative to appease Chen Zijin for him.

Li Heng asked casually: "Why didn't you go?"

Chen Zitong said: "If I went, how could I see brother-in-law and Sister Song being loving together?"

Just then, a group of people came this way, Li Heng frowned: "Some things, let's talk in private."

Chen Zitong glanced at the group of girls who kept glancing at her brother-in-law, and agreed unhappily.

After a while, Xiao Feng and Song Yu returned, each getting a meal for Liu Li and Chen Zitong.

Because of the variable of Chen Zitong, the atmosphere of eating became a bit strange, Li Heng accelerated his speed to finish eating, just waiting for Chen Zitong.

And Chen Zitong was even more straightforward, as soon as he put down his chopsticks, she followed suit.

Then, the two didn't say a word, walked out of the cafeteria one after the other, and came to a tree where no one was around.

Standing still, Li Heng turned around and said: "Zitong, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask."

Chen Zitong didn't stand on ceremony with him, looked up and asked: "Are you dating Song Yu?"

This had already become a fact, Li Heng didn't deny it: "Yes."

Chen Zitong asked: "When did it start? Was it after my sister came to the capital during the summer vacation of her second year of high school?"

Li Heng spoke again: "Yes."

Chen Zitong pressed: "Who chased whom?"

Li Heng said: "I chased Song Yu."

Chen Zitong was a bit unhappy: "Just slept with my sister, then turned around to chase Song Yu, how could you be so embarrassed to do this?"

Li Heng didn't make any sophistry, only said four words: "It's my fault."

Seeing his attitude was so compliant, Chen Zitong felt like she had punched cotton, bit her lip and asked again: "You made your relationship with Song Yu public in the capital, but hid my sister from the world, I guess you want to marry Song Yu, right?"

This question was a bit sensitive, he didn't want to talk too much with Chen Zitong, so he remained silent.

But Chen Zitong was still relentless: "You want to marry Song Yu because she is more beautiful than my sister, has more temperament than my sister, right?"

Li Heng said softly: "Your sister is also very beautiful."

Chen Zitong heard the implication, "It was my mother and three aunts who held us back, they scolded you and Aunt Tian during the summer vacation, you hold a grudge, right?"

To a certain extent, that was the case.

Comrade Tian Run'e had always held a grudge against the Chen family because of this, especially the scene where she knelt down to apologize for her son but was crazily scolded by the four sisters-in-law, which she would never forget.

Chen Zitong asked: "Brother-in-law, let's change our way of thinking. If you were a woman, and my sister was a man, and such a thing happened, would your Li family really have no temper at all?"

Li Heng said: "There would be."

Chen Zitong was stunned, not expecting him to admit it.

After a moment of stalemate, Chen Zitong asked again: "Do you feel resentful because our Chen family didn't help Uncle Li?"

Li Heng shook his head: "Zitong, you're overthinking this. My dad was framed and lost his iron rice bowl, this isn't anyone's fault, can only blame him for not being skilled enough.

In their line of work, intrigue is common, either he wins or he fails, there will only be these two endings, there won't be a third result. Since he picked up that bowl of rice, he should have been prepared to be eliminated at any time.

As for your family, willing to help lift a hand is a favor; not willing to manage is also human nature, it's duty. As the saying goes, every family has its own difficult scripture to read, walking on this road, resources are used to exchange for benefits, all understandable."

Hearing these words, it was Chen Zitong's turn to be speechless. After a long time, she took out a stack of money from her pocket and stuffed it back into his pocket.

She said seriously: "Brother-in-law, don't look at me as usually laughing and joking, actually I'm pretending, just can't stand my mother, just want to jump on my mother's face, actually I understand all these.

I came today, not to find you to make trouble, just feeling wronged for my sister, she is too bitter. Getting no support at home, and no best destination with you, a woman bitter like this, I as her sister feel very sad."

Li Heng paused, his heart feeling particularly uncomfortable.

Then Chen Zitong said again: "Haven't seen Song Yu for more than two years, she is really beautiful beyond words, if I were you, perhaps I would also be unable to hold back my thoughts.

They say scholars are romantic, scholars have always been sentimental, I can only find such an excuse to comfort my sister. But I don't blame you either.

After all, everyone has their own position, the Chen family has the Chen family's way of survival. From your Li family's perspective, Aunt Tian not being able to swallow that breath is also reasonable.

You and my sister were originally voluntary on both sides, really counting it down, neither can blame the other. It's just that our Chen family is the woman's side, it seems reasonable to vent a little more anger, but things are often overdone, my mother and three aunts didn't control the bottom line, which led to the current situation."

As she spoke, Chen Zitong raised her head and said in a low tone: "Brother-in-law, I came here to beg you, please treat my sister well, okay? She really loves you, in this world, if even you are heartless to her, she won't be able to live."

After saying this, Chen Zitong left without looking back.

At the same time, a small sentence drifted into his ears: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, I will keep your affairs with Song Yu and my sister secret."

Li Heng stared at her fixedly until the dim heavy snow submerged her entire figure, and then he gradually came back to his senses.

Song Yu came over.

Or rather, she was watching from not far away, fearing that the two would quarrel.

Song Yu walked closer and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Li Heng tried to squeeze out a smile, "I'm fine."

Song Yu stared at him, identified it carefully for a while and said: "It seems Zitong is more sensible than I thought, she actually made you lose your mind just now."

Li Heng moved his lips: "Yes."
