Chapter 782: Regret knowing me

The Beidu campus is very large, even if she walks there now, it will take more than half an hour.

Besides, she can't get close to such things.

Not to mention Jiang Wan's character, she is definitely a very smart person. She can't hurt Sang Juan, and she can't let Sang Juan hurt her.

Lu Qiao's idea was indeed correct.

Sang Juan originally wanted to go to a place where no one was, but Jiang Wan stopped at the front of the pavilion.

She said to Sang Juan: "Don't go any further, let's talk here."

Hearing this, Sang Juan's eyes were red, staring at Jiang Wan opposite.

Before, Jiang Wan was her best friend. She told Jiang Wan everything in her heart, even if she was admitted to Beidu University, she never thought about breaking up with this friend.

But now, Jiang Wan is her enemy.

Sang Juan gritted her teeth: "I really regret, why did I want to be friends with you? Why did I want you to go to my house?"

Jiang Wan hooked her lips coldly: "You must be very regretful now, regret knowing me, regret inviting the wolf into the house, right?"

Sang Juan's eye sockets were redder, she wanted to roar, but could only lower her voice: "Isn't it? I ask you, why are you so shameless? Don't you know how to write the word shame?"

Speaking of this, her tears had already flowed down: "We are good friends, how long have we known each other? Are the happy days we spent together before all fake? Are they all cheated by you? Really... Jiang Wan, I hate you to death. If time could go back, I would never say another word to you, and I would never let you take half a step into my house."

Jiang Wan stood there, looking at Sang Juan who was so sad and hated her, and didn't know what it felt like in her heart.

Is it sad?

It seems there is a little bit, but the heart is still uncomfortable. After all, when they first met, Jiang Wan was still young and didn't have so many thoughts.

But when did those thoughts start to change?

Jiang Wan stared at Sang Juan: "Do you want to know why it became like this?"

Sang Juan didn't nod, nor did she shake her head, just stared at her dead.

Why can someone who did something wrong not have any guilt and stand here righteously?

At this moment, she looked at Jiang Wan, just like looking at a stranger—no, an enemy.

And at this moment, Jiang Wan's hands were tightly clenched into fists, until her nails were embedded in her palms, and the pain came, and then she loosened them bit by bit.

For a moment, seeing such a Sang Juan, her heart softened.

If she said at this time that she just wanted to get some benefits, and in fact, she and Sang's father had nothing, then the ending would definitely be happy for everyone.

No, it's happy for the Sang family.

Sang Mingzhi would breathe a sigh of relief, his wife would not divorce him, this five-good family would not be broken, his parents would not be disappointed in him, and his career would not be affected. Sleeping with a big girl for nothing, really didn't lose anything.

But what would be her end?

Sang Mingzhi might secretly stuff some money to her, or help her find a good job.

But she is dragging this body, who can she marry?

Paper cannot wrap up fire; even without this incident, rumors would still be pinned on her. Moreover, she really has gotten together with Sang Mingzhi.

She might marry an ordinary man—those who have never been married certainly wouldn't want her, and those who have been married would be picky. She would still only be able to find those who are divorced or widowed, and she would have to be a stepmother the moment she stepped through the door.

Then, if she took a step back, would Sang Juan treat her like before?

No, absolutely not!

They could never go back to how things were, and she, in this lifetime, would never again have the possibility of stepping half a step into the Sang family home; she wouldn't even be allowed into the government compound anymore.

They say that taking a step back opens up the sea and sky.

The step she took, however, was into a bottomless abyss!

It must be said that Jiang Wan is a person who is calm and rational to the point of being nearly cold.

She can weigh the pros and cons in the shortest amount of time and make the judgment most favorable to herself.

Consequently, Jiang Wan's eyes also turned red, and tears slid down.

It is unclear whether she was shedding tears for her past self and Sang Juan, or for her present self.

In any case, she knew that her tears were real.

She said: "Sang Juan, do you still remember what you said when you gave me your old clothes?"

Sang Juan stared at her fiercely: "What, me giving you these things has instead become my sin? You need to know, some I hadn't even worn; I just gave them to you because I saw you liked them. I even had to pretend to say that these were things I didn't like and had worn—because we were good friends. Then, where did I go wrong in doing that?"

"That's right, you had that exact expression—reluctant to give them to me, yet having no choice but to give them, conflicted within yourself, while your mouth said they were things you didn't like or didn't want. Do you know how uncomfortable I felt when I took those clothes? I said I didn't want them, and you shoved them at me; I said I didn't like wearing them, and you said, 'Look at how tattered the clothes on your body are, and you still say you don't like wearing them? Just take them and wear them, don't be polite with me, I have plenty of clothes like these...'"

"So, this must be the story of 'Master Dongguo and the Wolf'."

Jiang Wan didn't care at all what the "Master Dongguo and the Wolf" that Sang Juan mentioned meant, nor did she intend to answer any of Sang Juan's questions; she was simply stating facts.

"Do you still remember when I didn't get into university with you, and you came to my house to hang out, my mother asked you to introduce a partner for me, and who did you introduce to me?"

Sang Juan was stunned for a moment.

That's right, there was such an incident—at the time, she had introduced to Jiang Wan a young man from the boiler squad of the government compound, who was also a youth returning to the city; his parents were both cadres, and his family conditions were quite good. She had even told Jiang Wan about this at the time.

"So, you've also held a grudge against me because of this?" Sang Juan's voice was trembling.

"That's right! Because in the eyes of a proud daughter of heaven like you, I, Jiang Wan, an ordinary girl born in a crowded tenement, even if I were to be introduced to a partner, would only be worthy of a boiler worker.

At the time, your expression made me feel that me being able to date a boiler worker from your compound was something I had burned high incense for in my past life.

That's right, in your eyes, am I only worthy of spending a lifetime with a boiler worker?

Am I, Jiang Wan, only worthy of marrying a boiler worker?

You know my father is a boiler worker, guarding the boiler room his whole life, choked by smoke and scorched by fire, especially in the summer; you don't know how much he suffered.

My father was always hoping to change to a slightly easier position before retiring, but what about you? You actually introduced a boiler worker to me—what does that mean? Do you still want me to live the life my mother lived?

No matter what, I am also from a worker's family, and even if I don't have a formal job now, I am a high school graduate; am I only worthy of marrying a boiler worker?

From that time on, I swore—Sang Juan, in this life, I must live better than you!"

"You want to live well, there are many ways to do it; why did you have to go after my father? You are shameless, you are shameless to the extreme!" Sang Juan roared.

Jiang Wan didn't care about these few insults at all.

To tell the truth, this didn't even count as an insult.
