Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed Chapter 410 - 172: Turmoil in the Girls’ Dormitory: Conversa

Ding Shanshan, Xu Tingrou, and the others rushed forward to greet Zhong Tingyue when they saw her return.

Zhong Tingyue removed her face mask but kept her sunglasses on. Her complexion was extrely haggard, completely lacking the vibrant radiance she’d had just a few days ago before her trip to Sucheng, the life gone from her eyes.

How has Tingyue managed these past few days? She must be so heartbroken... Ding Shanshan’s heart ached for her.

Her roommates had known the truth for a while but hadn’t said a word. The issue only ca to a head when classmates pointed out a photo of Zhong Tingyue and Li Yuan that she herself had posted to her QQ Monts. The secret was out, and the situation exploded. At that mont, they knew she must have understood everything.

Ding Shanshan quickly stepped forward to support Zhong Tingyue, asking with concern, "Tingyue, are you all right? We haven’t been able to contact you these past few days. You didn’t reply to our ssages or answer our calls. You nearly scared us to death."

Xu Tingrou also hurried over. Noticing Zhong Tingyue was wearing sunglasses inside their dorm, which was unnecessary unless sothing was wrong with her eyes, she asked with a worried look, "Tingyue, what’s wrong with your eyes?"

Ding Shanshan chid in, "Yeah, Tingyue, we’re in the dorm. Why are you still wearing sunglasses?"

Wang Lisha and Deng iqi also looked at Zhong Tingyue with curiosity.

A flicker of warmth passed through Zhong Tingyue’s heart as she felt her roommates’ concern, and she managed to force a slight smile. "I’m fine. I just got so sand in my eyes."

Ding Shanshan and Xu Tingrou exchanged a look; they both knew she was lying. She must have been crying her eyes out from the heartbreak. Being clever girls, neither of them pursued the matter or tried to expose her lie.

anwhile, Bai Weixi, who had been crying for half the day after learning the truth, was sitting blankly on her bed. Her eyes, devoid of spirit, were fixed on Zhong Tingyue.

This was the roommate she thought she got along with so well... the sa one who stole her boyfriend.

Bai Weixi’s voice was hoarse as she spoke. "How did you two et?"

As soon as Bai Weixi spoke, the dormitory fell silent. You could hear a pin drop as the atmosphere instantly solidified. Ding Shanshan, Wang Lisha, and the others watched Bai Weixi and Zhong Tingyue anxiously, fearing a fierce conflict would erupt between them.

Zhong Tingyue listened to Bai Weixi’s question. She looked at Bai Weixi’s eyes, which were also red and swollen from crying, and remained silent for a mont before slowly beginning to speak.

"It was the first day of freshman orientation. He suddenly approached to say hello. He knew my na, my phone number, my favorite foods, and even the childhood nickna my mother gave ...

"That night, he told a story. He claid we were lovers in a past life. He knew about my family situation and even wrote a song, ’Nanshan South.’ My family lives in Sucheng’s Nanshan District... I believed him at the ti. That night, Shanshan, Tingrou, Li Yuan, and I had dinner together, and we even drank..."

Having been there themselves, Ding Shanshan and Xu Tingrou exchanged a look and sighed inwardly. They could empathize. Under those circumstances, it would have been difficult for Zhong Tingyue not to be moved and fall for it.

Bai Weixi silently listened as Zhong Tingyue recounted her story with Li Yuan. She had been in the dorm that night, too. She and the others had even teased Zhong Tingyue about it. At the ti, however, she was in a "cold war" with Li Yuan; he had even deleted her from his QQ contacts.

So, was that when Li Yuan’s heart changed? Was that when another girl managed to slip in?

Bai Weixi’s mind filled with mories. For three years in high school, Li Yuan had been completely devoted to her. His care was ticulous, and he rejected all the other girls in their class. His eyes and heart were for her alone. But the favored always take their blessings for granted. She had comfortably enjoyed his affection without ever giving him a clear answer.

I was the one who pushed him away... pushed him into another girl’s arms... A sharp pang of regret pierced Bai Weixi’s heart. She herself had pushed away such a perfect boyfriend. She had made a man, who had once been so faithful, turn fickle. The cause of all this was my own repeated rejections during high school...

Lost in thought, Bai Weixi silently listened as Zhong Tingyue continued.

"That night, emboldened by the alcohol, I went with him to the football field. He sang ’Nanshan South’ to , and then I kissed him...

"From that day on, we would talk every day. We often t at night to walk on the school’s athletic field, talking about interesting things in our lives and our hopes for the future. He said he wanted to save from the turmoil of my family and ensure our love in this life would have no regrets.

"He took to negotiate with Wangyi Company and wanted to open a milk tea shop with . He said our fate was carved on the Three Lives Stone, a love ant to span ’three lives, three worlds,’ and that in our past life, this life, and the next, we would always be together.

"He treated so, so well. Even when I didn’t ask for anything, he would take the initiative to fulfill my every wish. I believed every word he said. I believed our love was predestined from a past life.

"’Any regrets from our past life won’t be repeated in this one...’

"And without realizing it, I fell completely for him..."

As Zhong Tingyue spoke, tears began to stream down her face. Speaking through her tears, she suddenly removed her sunglasses and looked at Bai Weixi, her voice pale and weak.
