Chapter 265: Moving Out

With the intervention of the Security Section, Hao Manru quickly compensated Su Ruo two hundred yuan and publicly apologized; her superiors also gave her a demerit for this behavior.

The relationship between Su Ruo and Hao Manru had clearly become unsuitable for continuing to live together, so they also arranged a dormitory change for Su Ruo.

As Su Ruo was leaving, Hao Manru coldly stared at her and said, "Su Ruo, you deliberately caused this scene so that everyone thinks I seduced Brother Song, that I am shameless and debased, looked down upon by everyone; now that I've ended up like this, you must be pleased, right?"

Su Ruo looked at Hao Manru with icy eyes; frankly, seeing Hao Manru in this situation, she felt no satisfaction at all, only sorrow.

Hao Manru's family background and education were both excellent; although Su Ruo could not fully agree with some of Hao Manru's mother's practices, there is no denying that the mother's love for Hao Manru is unquestionable.

Given Hao Manru's circumstances, she could have found a decent man to marry and, under her parents' protection, lived a life free of worries about food and clothing.

But she fell helplessly in love with Song Jingyu, and for his sake repeatedly did wildly crazy things, even sacrificing her reputation, her future, even her life.

Su Ruo could not understand Hao Manru's actions, because under no circumstances would she ever go to such lengths for a man.

To love others, you must first love yourself; if you don't even love yourself, how can you expect others to love you?

Is it because Hao Manru has received and possessed too much since childhood that she doesn't cherish anything?

Su Ruo didn't understand, and of course she didn't need to: "Hao Manru, you've brought this situation entirely upon yourself; if you hadn't provoked me, I would never have provoked you!"

If you want to keep doing something, I will retaliate without mercy!

After saying that, Su Ruo turned and left without hesitation; this was her final advice to Hao Manru, hoping she would take care of herself.

But Su Ruo knew Hao Manru wouldn't listen, for Hao Manru had become obsessed, trapped in her own fixation and unable to free herself.

After Song Jingyu saw off the Security Section personnel, he returned to help Su Ruo move her belongings; in fact, Su Ruo didn't have much to move.

Those that Hao Manru had broken or dirtied, Su Ruo simply threw away.

What remained were some clothes and documents; Song Jingyu naturally took them from Su Ruo's hands, and she did not refuse.

Someone peeked out to secretly observe the two; in their hearts, Su Ruo and Song Jingyu were clearly a couple, and today's commotion happened because Hao Manru, unable to obtain what she wanted, turned love into hate and deliberately took revenge on Su Ruo.

Song Jingyu looked at Su Ruo, wanting to speak several times but stopping himself; finally he asked, "If you think everyone's speculation will cause you trouble, I can step in to clarify."

Su Ruo smiled faintly and said, "No need."

Su Ruo felt that being with Song Jingyu was not bad; at least she felt no resistance in her heart, so let's go with that!

Su Ruo never goes against her inner feelings; since she already had an idea in her heart, why not give it a try?

Upon hearing Su Ruo's words, Song Jingyu's steps halted; he looked into her originally deep eyes, and a brilliant light burst forth.

Su Ruo could sense his inner excitement and exhilaration; every cell in his tense body trembled slightly from overexcitement.

If it weren't for the last vestige of reason in his heart, he would have wanted to immediately pull Su Ruo into his arms and tell everyone that she was his girlfriend.

Su Ruo could almost hear Song Jingyu's heartbeat pounding like thunder and drums.

Song Jingyu usually remained calm and composed, rarely showing such agitation; therefore, she instinctively stepped back a little, not wanting him to do something inappropriate in his excitement that would draw attention to her.

Because Su Ruo stepped back, Song Jingyu instantly regained his composure; his girl had just accepted his confession, and he didn't want to scare her away by a momentary impulse.

"Are you serious?"

Even though Song Jingyu was desperately suppressing himself, when he spoke those words his body still betrayed him, stepping toward Su Ruo and closing the distance between them.

Song Jingyu's height of about 1.8 meters was naturally imposing, especially the aura he had honed on the battlefield, which made people instinctively feel fearful.

But at this moment, Song Jingyu was like a loyal big dog, waiting for his owner's response.

Su Ruo smiled and said, "Yes, Song Jingyu, I agree to be your girlfriend."

Looking at Su Ruo, Song Jingyu's muscles tensed even more, every drop of blood in his body seeming to boil, his excitement almost bursting his vessels.

The system said at this moment, "Host, is his body really all right like this?"

Su Ruo directly blocked it, not wanting it to come out now and spoil the mood.

"Didn't you say you'd take me to the new dorm? Let's go!"

Only then did Song Jingyu snap back to reality, saying, "Okay!"

But he was still so excited he felt dazed, even his walking became uncoordinated.

Su Ruo couldn't help but let a faint smile appear on her face; she didn't know what it felt like to like someone, but it should be pleasant, right!

Su Ruo's new dormitory is a few hundred meters from the old one, but they are in different locations, so the routes to the hospital and cafeteria also differ.

Su Ruo thought this was good; if she didn't want to see Hao Manru, she wouldn't run into her anymore.

From the outside, this dorm looks no different from the one she used to live in, but as soon as Su Ruo opened the door, she was instantly shocked.

Su Ruo originally thought that after moving into the new dorm she would definitely need to clean, and if she wasn't busy until late at night, she wouldn't be able to sleep.

But the reality was the opposite; this dorm had been cleaned until the windows were spotless and the tables immaculate—neither the desk nor the bed had a speck of dust, and when the sunset streamed in, it bathed the room in a warm glow.

Su Ruo looked at Song Jingyu in delighted surprise and asked, "Did you do all this?"

Su Ruo couldn't believe that a Tianluo Girl actually existed in this world.

Being gazed at by Su Ruo, Song Jingyu's cheeks involuntarily flushed a faint crimson.

Actually, from the day Su Ruo arrived here, he had been arranging the dorm; among all dorms, this one has the best lighting and privacy.

Although doing so somewhat violated regulations, he still exercised his authority for the first time and personally cleaned and furnished the place.

All the cabinets in the room were not standard issue; he had paid nearby villagers to custom‑make them, just so his girl could live a little more comfortably.
