Chapter 86: Dan Yuyue Has an Appointment

This matter ended up causing quite a stir; half the freshman circle knew that Cheng Huaiyu had been hitting on a freshman girl while already having a girlfriend, and he became the notorious scumbag of the School of Liberal Arts.

As for Dan Yuyue, things were not easy for her either; she was normal enough during class in the afternoon, just a bit quieter than usual, but ever since she returned to the dormitory, she had been sitting on her bed, head buried between her legs, crying.

Wang Yi and Dong Xinxin looked at each other, neither knowing what to do.

Holding onto the idea of giving it a try, Dong Xinxin asked Ying Ziyun, saying, "Yunyun, you have experience in this area, why don't you talk some sense into Yueyue? Otherwise, we're afraid she might do something rash."

Ying Ziyun replied, "Xu Heng and I broke up because I initiated it; my situation is different from Dan Yuyue's."

Once Dong Xinxin heard this, she felt it made sense; initiating a breakup and being forced to break up because a boyfriend cheated were completely different things. Back then, Ying Ziyun hadn't shown any signs of sadness when they broke up, whereas Dan Yuyue looked like she was about to become completely withdrawn.

"At a time like this, you should give her some private space to be quiet. Right now, whether we offer comfort or concern, it might cause her mental defenses to collapse," Ying Ziyun warned in a low voice, then stood up. "I'm going to the study room. Are you two coming?"

Dong Xinxin and Wang Yi nodded hurriedly; the two young girls couldn't bear to see a friend sad, and since they didn't know how to comfort her, it was better to do as Ying Ziyun said and let Dan Yuyue be quiet by herself.

After all three left, the dormitory suddenly became quiet.

After they had been gone for a while, Dan Yuyue finally lifted her head; her eye sockets were a bit red from being pressed against her thighs.

Actually, she wasn't crying; although she had wanted to cry at the beginning, she held back her tears and tried her best to keep them from falling.

Dan Yuyue felt she was truly foolish, kept in the dark by Cheng Huaiyu, and stupidly deceived for a month or two.

Before this, she had always thought of herself as the kind of smart and clever girl who understood the ways of the world, thinking that for someone like her, manipulating a man would be a simple matter.

As it turned out, looking back, it was actually Cheng Huaiyu who had played her like a complete idiot.

Thinking back to last semester, she had even mocked Xu Heng for being a coward, still pining for a reconciliation after being dumped by Ying Ziyun; she thought such a boy would never amount to anything in his life.

The Dao of Heaven is a cycle; not even a semester had passed before something even more cruel than being dumped happened to her, and she couldn't bring herself to laugh.

Why did Cheng Huaiyu cheat? Dan Yuyue couldn't find an answer to this, nor did she want to think about it. She only felt a stifling sensation in her heart, unable to breathe, and wanted to find someone to chat with, but her roommates were all out, and the dormitory was empty and silent, to the point where you couldn't even hear a pin drop.

She curled up in the corner of her bed and opened her mobile QQ; the simple contact interface only had two categories: family and classmates.

She scrolled through the names of people she could contact; these people were either high school classmates now separated by distance, or university classmates she wasn't familiar with and had only met once.

After flipping through the names of one contact after another, she finally discovered that there wasn't a single person she could talk to. Besides her roommates, she really didn't have any friends to speak of at school.

At this moment, she suddenly thought of Xu Heng. Both being people cast aside by fate, Xu Heng should be able to empathize with her situation, so she reopened the contact list, only to find that she couldn't find Xu Heng's screen name.

Right, she had been blocked by him last time... Dan Yuyue couldn't help but feel a sting in her nose, feeling a bit aggrieved.

Xu Heng must have a very poor impression of her; after all, when he broke up with Ying Ziyun, she had mocked him.

Dan Yuyue hugged her phone, and the urge to cry that she had suppressed surged back into her heart.

Now the only person she might have been able to talk to was gone too; how could she have encountered such a miserable thing?

She was somewhat unwilling to give up, so she created a new secondary account and added Xu Heng on QQ, using "Ying Ziyun" as the note, hoping to get the friend request accepted by leveraging the status Ying Ziyun held in Xu Heng's heart.

At this moment, Xu Heng was also feeling strange; for no reason, a secondary account with a one-star level added him, and the note was "Ying Ziyun."

He didn't believe Ying Ziyun would do something so boring.

Looking not far away, Cheng Huaiyu was cursing and swearing while telling Zhao Gaoyang and Sheng Bo about the scandal that happened today, saying that Ji Meimei was a bitch, a slut, a whore, and that she must have intentionally seduced him because he had money. Anyway, every ugly word came out, and there were even curse words in the Modu dialect.

The fact that he was two-timing had long since spread throughout the freshman circle, and many upperclassmen who came to watch the drama knew about it; his dormitory was naturally among them.

Regarding this, Cheng Huaiyu pushed all the responsibility onto Ji Meimei, insisting that it was this girl who seduced him and tempted him to cheat. Otherwise, how could he possibly abandon a girlfriend as pretty as Dan Yuyue to be with her? He had merely committed a mistake that all men would commit.

On the campus forum, the evaluations of Cheng Huaiyu and Ji Meimei were also basically polarized; some cursed Ji Meimei as a whore, while others cursed Cheng Huaiyu for not being a good person.

The drama grew larger and larger, and more and more people came to watch the excitement. Dan Yuyue was the complete victim in this incident and received the sympathy of the vast majority of people.

But this sympathy on the internet was of no use; right now, Dan Yuyue herself should be the most miserable.

Xu Heng looked at the flashing little speaker on his computer screen, thought for a moment, and still accepted her friend request.

"【Grin】【Grin】"

She really has a big heart, to still be able to laugh after running into this, Xu Heng thought speechlessly, and typed a reply: "Say what you have to say, don't be giggling."

"Come out for a meal, my treat."

"I've already eaten dinner."

"Late-night snack."

"It's only seven o'clock."

"I haven't had dinner, you come out to keep me company."

"Why should I?"

"Because you're my ex-boyfriend 【Left Hmph】【Left Hmph】"

The corner of Xu Heng's mouth twitched. He thought he was just seeing that the other party was pitiful and giving the victim some face by not exposing her, but this girl had actually really projected herself as Ying Ziyun.

"Go find your roommates, ex-boyfriends aren't responsible for accompanying you to dinner."

"My roommates aren't in the dorm, otherwise do you think I'd care to look for you? 【Wipe Sweat】"

After a few minutes, Dan Yuyue still hadn't received a reply from Xu Heng. She panicked and hurriedly sent a message: "Xu Heng, I was teasing you. I can't find anyone else I know, only you. Please don't ignore me, okay?"

Two seconds later, the other side replied.

"Name the place."

Seeing this reply, Dan Yuyue finally let out a sigh of relief. She was like a drowning person who had grabbed onto Xu Heng as her last straw, terrified that Xu Heng would block her again.

"The barbecue place at the entrance of the snack street."

Xu Heng closed his computer, put on his jacket, and said to the three people still chatting over there: "I'm going out for something, I'll be back later."

Sheng Bo asked in surprise: "It's so late, Old Xu, you're still going out?"

"Someone asked me out to eat."

"Who?" Zhao Gaoyang asked nervously.

"Ying Ziyun."
