Chapter 228: Next time, I'll come again!

"Shen Ci!"

You Liqing actually looked at Shen Ci regardless of anything else, raised her eyebrows and said: "Help Hexu take a look, will you?"

Ma Hexu was so anxious that he even used some force holding You Liqing's hand, hinting for her not to be like this, but You Liqing clearly didn't care about his feelings at all.

Shen Ci looked at the provocation in You Liqing's eyes and understood very well that she was deliberately trying to disgust her, or rather, she wanted Ma Hexu to publicly state his position and stand on her side in front of all the classmates, to declare her posture as the victor.

How boring, childish, and ridiculous!

The next second, Shen Ci shook her head and looked at Ma Hexu with a calm expression: "Forget it, Ma Hexu. I know your writing style too well. If it's still at the level of the love letters you wrote me back then, it really doesn't have anything to do with the word 'writer.' Aren't you a science student? It's better to focus on your own major."

In an instant, the temperature in the private room dropped to freezing, and everyone's breathing subconsciously lightened.

Shen Ci actually...

Publicly stated that Ma Hexu had written her love letters back then in front of You Liqing and everyone else.

However, just when everyone thought Shen Ci was crazy and didn't know how to react, Shen Ci came out with another explosive statement!

She looked at You Liqing in confusion: "You Liqing, do you even need to ask me this? You should also be clear that Ma Hexu's attainments in literature are basically zero! Could it be that he hasn't written you any love letters?"

Everyone:

You Liqing's pretty face flushed red all at once.

Seeing this, Zhang Meng was the first to stand up, looking at Shen Ci and scolding angrily: "Shen Ci, do you have no shame? Clearly knowing that Qingqing and Hexu are together now, you still deliberately bring up such things. You're clearly trying to disgust Qingqing!"

"I called you a dog, and you really do bite people randomly!" Shen Ci's expression tightened, and she leaned back slightly: "It was You Liqing who wanted me to give Ma Hexu pointers. I really gave pointers, and you guys aren't happy again?"

She had originally really not intended to hurt Ma Hexu, after all, the other person had sincerely liked her for two years.

But she couldn't stand You Liqing constantly trying to stir her and Ma Hexu together. If she was willing to sacrifice her boyfriend without feeling heartache just to embarrass her, why should she feel heartache for someone else?

As a man, Ma Hexu couldn't hold his face up anymore. He quietly pulled his hand out of You Liqing's hand and said in a low voice: "It's all in the past, the classmates all know, there's nothing to hide."

He was still smart; since things had reached this point, it was better to be generous, lest everyone feel awkward.

After all, the classmates did indeed know about these things, and covering one's ears to steal a bell had no meaning.

You Liqing felt her hand empty, and her heart felt empty as well. She immediately turned her mind, intending to regain some face for Ma Hexu: "Shen Ci, I think you don't understand Hexu. He is a very hardworking person. The environment for publishing physical books is very poor now, and many people are talented but unrecognized."

Hearing this, Shen Ci sneered in her heart. This person was really good at acting. Not only did she push her boyfriend out as a tool, but now she intended to put her boyfriend on a rack to roast.

As a result, Ma Hexu didn't expect that he would feel very moved after hearing You Liqing's words, and looked at her with deep affection.

"First of all, I don't need to understand him, I have nothing to do with him," Shen Ci said mercilessly: "Secondly, what is the essence of being talented but unrecognized? Is it possible that he has no talent to begin with? He hasn't even conceived talent, so he's not talented but unrecognized; he's infertile!"

"Shen Ci, you!"

Shen Ci raised her hand, calmly interrupting the red-faced You Liqing, and continued: "I don't understand Ma Hexu, but I understand men. Men are like balloons; they float up with a light blow."

"I don't think you can blindly praise a man like this, letting him waste his time under empty and ethereal praise, only to end up with nothing."

She looked at Ma Hexu, revealing the most sincere gaze of the night: "The words are a bit harsh, but I feel from the bottom of my heart that you aren't suitable. Take fewer detours, isn't it better to do what you're good at?"

Ma Hexu looked at Shen Ci's eyes and froze slightly, his heart skipping a beat.

Feeling the subtle change in Ma Hexu's emotions, the vinegar jar in You Liqing's heart instantly overturned, and she insisted stubbornly: "He is very good at creating, he will definitely succeed! Hexu, you have to believe in yourself, you will definitely succeed. At worst, I'll have my dad spend money to publish your book!"

This last sentence was blurted out without any thought, and it was this sentence that stepped on Ma Hexu's minefield!

His handsome face turned cold. Even though others present didn't show any negative reaction, he felt in this instant that he had been treated as a "kept man" by everyone.

Seeing him look at You Liqing, he said coldly: "I don't need anyone's help, especially yours!"

After saying this, he stood up angrily, grabbed the coat behind him, and walked out of the door quickly.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Shen Ci raised her eyebrows slightly.

And seeing her so light and breezy, You Liqing was furious and finally exploded: "Shen Ci! Are you satisfied now?"

"Satisfied?"

Shen Ci swept across the classmates' faces, which were all different, and shook her head with a speechless smile: "What does it have to do with me? Wasn't it you who wanted to push Ma Hexu out to disgust me? You lifted a rock only to drop it on your own feet, yet you blame me?"

"I said I wasn't coming, and my 'good friend' accidentally told you the news of my return."

Speaking of this, Shen Ci looked at Xia Weiwei in the diagonal corner. Xia Weiwei lowered her head, dodging her eyes, but Shen Ci didn't intend to let her go, instead looking at her and saying: "Weiwei, accidentally let it slip? You saw it just now, You Liqing's was what you call accidentally saying the wrong thing. How careless must you be in typing to finish typing the words 'Shen Ci is back' and send them to someone else?"

"A-Ci, I really didn't mean it," Xia Weiwei said with an apologetic face.

Shen Ci snorted coldly, directly ignoring her hypocritical appearance, and turned to look at the others: "Everyone invited me warmly in the group, so I came. As a result, I heard you discussing me and talking behind my back at the door. If I had listened a little longer, would the rumors have spread?"

"Since that's the case, what kind of good face do you expect me to give you?"

Finally, Shen Ci looked at You Liqing: "You insisted on me coming, you know best what you were thinking. You liked to bully me in high school, so you thought I would still be like before, letting you humiliate me without saying a word?"

After saying this, Shen Ci slowly stood up, glanced lightly at the sumptuous wine and food on the table, and sneered: "How funny, I came to attend a classmate gathering and didn't even pick up my chopsticks because I felt disgusted in my heart seeing you guys."

"But still, thank you all for the invitation. If you invite me again next time, I'll come again!"
