It was a pressure post, directly targeting Hu Zhou Medical University and asking Xie Qingcheng to leave.
He Yu took a closer look.
As the Canton Tower affair festers, it is no longer just Xie Qingcheng and those around him who are being targeted.
The pressure of the hordes can sometimes cause an avalanche, and even the Shanghai Medical School has been affected.
People have been writing letters, posting on the internet, and complaining to the relevant authorities, questioning whether such a professor should not be employed by the Shanghai Medical University. Not to mention Xie Qingcheng's connection to the black forces, he should not be teaching at Qin Ciyan's alma mater just because of his sarcastic remarks.
This one is a particularly high reposting comment, and there are many others in the mess.
He Yu looked on indifferently, thinking that Xie Qingcheng deserved this.
Who told Xie Qingcheng to say such cruel things?
But as he turned off the phone and lay silently staring at the ceiling, he felt that he wasn't really that happy that they were scolding him.
It was a private matter between him and Xie Qingcheng, and he felt that the only person in the world who could make Xie Qingcheng pay for his psychotic comments was himself.
What does this have to do with anyone else?
What a nosy thing to do.
But it's not as simple as He Yu thinks.
A few days later, the number of such posts grew to the point where HMS could not avoid them.
The head of the school thought twice about it and spoke to Xie Qingcheng to ask if there was anything hidden about the incident.

Xie Qingcheng's answer was the same as the one he had given to Xie Xue's group in the old house, and this time without even a pause, he said, "No.
"I was a bit emotional. Didn't think things through and spoke heavily. There was no hidden agenda."
The leader sighed, regretfully: "Alas, Professor Xie ......"
Let Xie Qingcheng go.
Xie Qingcheng's words are mean, but at the root of the matter, he has not done anything unforgivable, and people cannot even find out that he takes drug rebates, they can only say "I heard that he deliberately recommends expensive drugs to patients", or People could only say, "I heard that he deliberately recommended expensive drugs to patients" or "I heard that he received five-figure red packets from patients for one operation".
But the truth is that with a little brain power and a little eye contact, you can see that Xie Qingcheng is not a surgeon, he doesn't operate at all. Unfortunately, to see the words "psychiatrist" on Xie Qingcheng's profile, one would probably need to buy a microscope, and keyboard vigilantes are always open and honest, so they are too shy to spend a lot of money on it.
So it is certainly understandable that they could not see the four large, unimportant letters.
In addition, the video involves Qin Ciyan, a national scholar who speaks and acts with compassion for his patients, and Xie Qingcheng, who works at the same hospital as Qin Ciyan and later at the Shanghai Medical School, where Qin Ciyan taught when he was young.
So the storm of public opinion dragged on, and finally the university had to make some statement, knowing it was silly.
In late autumn and winter, Xie Qingcheng received a treatment plan from the Shanghai Medical Department.
Suspension for review.
The headmaster was also very slick, not saying exactly how long the suspension would last, probably because he wanted to bring Xie Qingcheng back to work as soon as the public opinion had passed.
Suspension is fine.
Xie Qingcheng thought that his mental state was really too bad now, and this extra time was just to give him a chance to adjust his mind to the fact that this was not a dismissal and there was already nothing to complain about.
The news of Xie Qingcheng's suspension spread quickly, as if it had grown wings, among those who were following the matter. After all, this decision was originally made by the Shanghai Medical School to calm the storm, so the school's official blog posted an announcement at the first opportunity.

This announcement was seen by Xie Xue.
Chen Man saw it.
Both of them called Xie Qingcheng in a frenzy, and both of them were dismissed by Xie Qingcheng in a few words. He was holding a cardboard box with office supplies, which was too heavy to carry while on the phone, so he didn't bother to talk to them.
Xie Qingcheng walked to the broken down car parked in front of the school, threw the suitcase into the trunk and pressed the keys as he was about to get into the car and go back to the old house in Strange Rain Lane to get a good night's sleep, and then think about how to arrange the next period of suspension after he had sobered up.
But before the car door is opened and the legs are in the car, Xie Qingcheng sees a young man standing under an old camphor tree by the car park.
-- He Yu .
It had been a long time since the incident at the clubhouse, and Xie Qingcheng had been so tormented by him that he had spent the last ten days doing his best to escape from the shadow that He Yu had cast over him with the help of drugs and nicotine.
The only good thing is that He Yu doesn't seem to be planning to show up again, and Xie Qingcheng feels that this is going to pass slowly.
He would never, ever, have to see this man again.
But He Yu is real again at the moment.
Just as it was a dozen days ago, full of danger, it was a gesture that could not be more different from the aura of the past.
Xie Qingcheng was almost instantly torn away from all the psychological scars that had so easily crusted over, all those crazy, twisted, fiery, humiliating memories came flooding back to him at once as they locked eyes.
"......"
Xie Qingcheng wants to pretend he didn't see it.
But the young boy seemed to have come deliberately to fall on his sword, and with his back against the railings and his hands in his trouser pockets, was looking at him with a puzzled expression.

He Yu said, "You're suspended."
Xie Qingcheng ignored him.
The car park is empty and He Yu doesn't have to fake his usual placid appearance in front of people.
He took a few steps forward.
Xie Qingcheng really did not take He Yu's life because of his gunshot wound and because of He Jiwei's face. He sulked, "Get out of my way, you're blocking my way out of the warehouse."
He Yu simply ignored him, his almond eyes fixed on Xie Qingcheng, and after a long time, he whispered, "Xie Qingcheng, are you so old that you can't hear me talking to you?"
"I'll get in my fucking car and run you over if you don't get out of the way."
He Yu's eyes were haunted and he ran them over his face relentlessly before suddenly smiling, "You hit it."
"Want me to buckle you up?"
"......"
The anger and shame that had been tormenting him day and night for the past ten days came to the forefront of his mind and burned into a blaze in his eyes: " He Yu, I'm telling you, if you have a psychological problem, go see your doctor. If you're too sick, go to 600 Wanping Road and ask for a ward, don't go around here in a human skin, you bastard."
The corners of He Yu's lips curved slightly, and he leaned over to Xie Qingcheng's ear: " Xie Qingcheng, I'm telling you. I don't have a primary care doctor right now."
"There used to be one, I trusted him, and then I was bullied and scared."
"......"
"Also, when you talk to me, you'd better tread lightly; after all, the secret that I'm a brute is not known to many people now."

His face was sideways, his head inclined, his voice lowered, and a tiny bit of tiger's tooth faintly showing as he spoke.
"Right now, you have a bad reputation and I have a good one. If you accuse me, people will only think that you are the one who is at fault. You're already like this, so don't make yourself feel more uncomfortable, okay?"
When people look at them from this position, they will only think that they are close, and that the student is whispering to Professor Xie about what is going on between men, and they will not see the darkness beneath the surface.
He Yu lifted his hand and patted Xie Qingcheng's face after he finished speaking.
This one is really killing me.
After the night at the club, Xie Qingcheng rejected physical contact with He Yu, as if he was struck by a hundred thousand volts of electricity, or as if he was reacting to stress.
--
What does he want?
In fact, He Yu himself does not know.
He just felt hot, hot inside and hot on his body.
And let's not talk about what he thinks of Xie Qingcheng's personal character. And let's not talk about the things that go on in the internet.
These are not the things that confuse or overwhelm He Yu the most.
What drove him to come to Xie Qingcheng today, pretending that nothing was wrong, was another fact.
He had discovered over the past few days that ever since he had opened Pandora's Box that night and, in an impulsive and distracted moment, had looked at Xie Qingcheng's picture on his phone and done something, he seemed to be addicted.
Even though he knew he shouldn't, even though he himself was disgusted, he couldn't help but look at those pictures of Xie Qingcheng every morning and evening, even when he woke up in the night, and then think about that night while venting the fever that almost drove him mad in his heart.

It's been a few days.
He Yu finally blames his outrageous behaviour on a normal human reaction.
He was a very clean and proud man who didn't like to touch those dirty relationships between men and women, and although there were men and women who liked him at school, and he received love letters that could be sold for scrap every year, he never had much interest in doing such things.
But at the age when hormones are at their most active, it's normal to indulge in them once you've done it.
Because it was indeed too enjoyable.
He thought that it was just the males themselves**, he just naturally associated this extinction of pleasure with Xie Qingcheng because his first nature had been released by mistake on Xie Qingcheng.
He is of course still as disgustingly gay as ever.
However, when confronted with Xie Qingcheng's sharp-tongued questioning, He Yu finds it difficult to explain why he has come to the well after learning of the man's suspension.
Is there such a need to waste time with a passerby who has all but dragged himself into the black?
He Yu had only wanted to see him, but now he was embarrassed by Xie Qingcheng's cold, peachy eyes.
This embarrassment makes him gloomy, it makes him mean, it makes him search his heart for a reason to be able to strike back at Xie Qingcheng.
At last he managed to pick up a decent one.
The boy said lightly, "...... Well, let me think about it. Maybe it's because I heard you're out of a job now, so I wanted to come back and hire you?"
"He Yu: do you have a fucking eye problem or a brain problem." Xie Qingcheng was more morose than him, "I'm not unemployed."
The boy looked at him calmly, not seeing any other thoughts about the man at all, "You're suspended for who knows how long, so are you going to live on a guaranteed salary."

"It's not even any of your business if I get a disability allowance to get by."
He Yu smiled: "Professor Xie, it's true that you and I have no personal relationship at all, but after thinking about it, although you are quite annoying, your medical skills are not bad, so it's not a bad idea to hire you purely for the purpose of using you."
"I was the one who volunteered to quit in the first place, where did you get the wrong idea that I would ever go back to see you again?"
"Ah, you seem to have misunderstood." He Yu was still gentle, but the words he spat out were extremely unpleasant, "It's not your turn to see me."
"The sanatorium that housed Zhuang Zhiqiang before could give you a position if you're interested." He Yu is so indifferent that no one looking at his proper face would believe that he had done something as absurd as look at a few pictures of Xie Qingcheng on his dormitory bed.
There was a pause.
"It's also a little compensation for having offended you on impulse at the clubhouse earlier."
It's shameless.
Xie Qingcheng, his nose wrinkled and his face like a leopard, suddenly flared up, "What do you think you are, what compensation-"
"That night ......"
"Did anything happen that night? Nothing."
"......"
He Yu had wanted to let the night go, after all, he had no intention of continuing this perverted relationship with Xie Qingcheng, let alone admitting that he had fucked a man for the first time. But when Xie Qingcheng says it before he does, he's not happy about it.
He Yu's eyes slowly narrowed, and finally some fire escaped.
His hand leaned over and pushed Xie Qingcheng between the window and himself: "Xie Qingcheng, are you an Alzheimer?"
Advertisement
"You fucking Parkinson!"
He Yu was scolded by him and his eyes grew darker: "Professor Xie, the cost of living in Hu Zhou is so high, if I remember correctly, your previous salary was just enough to cover your monthly expenses, right? You have to buy books and documents, pay for research, and save for Xie Xue's dowry. If Xie Xue should fall in love with a rich boy, I'll calculate the amount of dowry to satisfy their family ......"
He took a moment to calculate, then raised his dark eyes and looked at Xie Qingcheng calmly and almost compassionately: "You seem to have had to work all year round since the Qin Dynasty until at least 2200."
"......"
"Actually, it's okay to come to me for a difficult time." His voice was softer, and he whispered in his ear in a voice only Xie Qingcheng could hear, "I've thought about it over the past few days. You're the one I've slept with at least, though not the first or the best. But I slept with you so many times that night that you can barely be considered my person. It's only right that I take some responsibility for you."
Xie Qingcheng was almost mad, the way He Yu treated him like a woman made him so angry that he almost lost his mind.
For a moment, he wanted to kill He Yu.
What He Jiwei: what gunshot wounds, what past ...... he did not want to care about, he really wanted He Yu's life.
His emotions undoubtedly reached He Yu's eyes correctly and thoroughly, and He Yu had a vague intuition -
He felt that Xie Qingcheng wanted to bite himself to death.
But in that anger, which could not chew blood and swallow flesh, there seemed to be a strand of something else.
It was just a flash, and he didn't even get a chance to see it.
Xie Qingcheng seems to have relied on that wisp of emotion to keep his hatred alive in the end.
His voice was hoarse, " He Yu, don't laugh me to death, what did you do that day I was drunk but I still remember, you slept with a lot of people? Don't flatter yourself. You think I can't tell when I've only slept with you? Are you inexperienced or am I inexperienced and you're lying to me?"
He Yu's face is blue.

He said morosely, "I've just slept with people, a lot of people."
"So you're really a fucking murderer, didn't the person you slept with before tell you that you're so badly skilled that you could kill someone?"
It's the death knell for nineteen and twenty year old virgins.
He Yu knew that his skills were definitely not good, but the worse they were the more he had to pretend and the less he wanted people to say, and he was instantly offended.
The boy pulled Xie Qingcheng over to him and pinned him to the car, his eyes red: "I'm not good at this? I got you out four times that night, don't you dare say I'm not good at it?"
"Have some fucking face." Xie Qingcheng, holding back his discomfort, raised his hand and patted He Yu's cheek, "You know what happened that night, you don't need me to remind you, a dog in heat would be no worse than you."
He Yu looked like he was about to tear his bones apart and said, word for word, "Does it look like I'm the one who didn't get a dog to keep you company, or am I the one who didn't serve you well?"
Xie Qingcheng pushed him hard, not wanting to be entangled with him anymore: "Go away."
"......"
"Get out."
He Yu laughed in anger and called out to him, " Xie Qingcheng ."
"......"
"Don't be so impetuous, consider what I'm saying, no one in the whole of Hu Zhou would dare take you in right now except me."
Xie Qingcheng turned back to me with a cold expression, "Listen carefully, I don't need your sympathy even if I die of hunger."
"So what are you going to do? Curl up in your snail's den every day and eat instant noodles?"

He was looking down on the despondent man with sarcasm and resentment when he heard a loud, irritated voice behind him, followed by a heavy object hitting He Yu on the back of the head!
"Why don't you go to hell, He Yu! You're crazy!"
He Yu was hit extremely hard by what turned out to be another heavy women's shoe with a sloping heel. His eyes clouded over and he turned to see Xie Xue running angrily towards him.
Both he and Xie Qingcheng were shocked.
For a moment Xie Qingcheng's face turned extremely pale, and He Yu was no better, but they had no intention of bringing their scandal to light, no matter how disgusting they were to each other in private. Especially not by the people around them.
But as Xie Xue came closer, they both saw her angry but unsurprised expression and knew that she had probably not been here long, or that He Yu had consciously lowered her voice when he said those dirty words so that she had not heard them.
Just what she heard was enough to make her angry.
What snail's pace? I'm the only one in the whole of Hu Zhou who dares to take you in?
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes today, she wouldn't have believed that He Yu could say such things to someone else, that He Yu could have such a clothed side, let alone that there would be such a pattern in the way her brother and He Yu got along with each other.
When she saw that He Yu had changed his attitude towards Xie Qingcheng, she couldn't stand it any longer, she pulled away from He Yu and opened her hands in front of Xie Qingcheng's face, her eyes seemed to be burning like a mountain of fire. "Don't you dare contradict my brother!
"......"
He Yu looked at her as she swallowed the mountain, speechless for a moment.
How much does she really think she has?
Once upon a time he let her, protected her, secretly bullied her yet helped her all the time so that she could strut her stuff in front of him, unaware of the sky.
But what if he didn't care about her anymore?
Advertisement
It is no harder to collect her than to crush an ant.
She dared to stop in front of him, hit him with something, and call his bluff?
He Yu simply finds it ridiculous.
But Xie Xue is still Xie Xue, even if many things are his own comforting fantasies, and she is the one who has always been the best to him, and his heart has gone from excruciating pain to numbness, and today he seems to expect nothing more, but he will not really do anything to Xie Xue.
He Yu just looked at her almost indifferently, the corners of his lips tugging with a touch of sarcasm in his indifference.
"Don't you know any better? I'm doing him a favour."
"What are you helping you! You're just being snide! I heard it all!" Xie Xue, like a lioness in a fury, shouted with a fierceness He Yu had never seen before, "Why are you suddenly treating him like this? Did you also believe the gossip outside? I'm telling you, He Yu! You don't have to disgust my brother! If he's suspended, he's suspended, but I'm still here! Even if he doesn't work, I can support him!"
"......" Xie Qingcheng watched her back with an indescribable feeling.
He was so used to being a big old man that he rarely spoke any soft words to his sister, and was not quite used to smacking the warmth between loved ones. Still, at this time, something soft and foreign stirred within his solid chest.
He Yu lifted his hand and touched the back of his head, which was still vaguely sore; fortunately it hadn't been smashed and bled.
He gave Xie Xue a sombre look: "How much is your internship salary? Is it enough for you to buy kebabs?"
Xie Xue was riveted: "What do you care! You're afraid you have some serious illness! I won't eat kebabs! I won't die even if I don't eat kebabs for the rest of my life! You go away!"
Seeing He Yu staring at Xie Xue, his eyes became more and more unkind.
Xie Qingcheng pulled Xie Xue over to him, who was still cursing emotionally: "You're so proud to have a couple of bucks! You're rich, aren't you? What? You know how to humiliate people! Do you believe I'll make you fail this term? I'll give you a zero for the overall daily exam! Who do you think you are, He Yu! I didn't know you were so sick and scum before! You're a psychopath! Scum!"
The psychopath is almost like a dragon's scales to He Yu, not to mention Xie Xue's mouth.
He Yu looked even more grim than before: "Try cursing me again."
"Even if she curses you a hundred times, what can you do to her."
It was Xie Qingcheng who spoke.
Xie Qingcheng pulled Xie Xue behind him and forced him to look at He Yu, his voice not loud, but his tone extremely cold and hard: "With me here, what can you do to her, He Yu. What the fuck are you going to do to me? If I don't kill you today, I'll take your name."
"......"
"You mustn't forget that I have no father, no mother, no wife and no children, and that honour is of no importance to me. I have nothing to care about except Xie Xue. If you dare touch her, I'll play with you."
He Yu: "......"
Xie Qingcheng reassures the girl twice, but his eyes are still fixed on the young man across the room.
"Get in, Xie Xue ."
Xie Xue was still furious and unrelenting: " He Yu, your mother--"
"Don't swear, get in."
"......"
Xie Xue was forced into the car.
Xie Qingcheng slammed the passenger door shut for her and raised his eyes to look at He Yu again, his sharp gaze shifting from eye to eye, glancing over, his peach blossom eyes floating upwards and falling into a more distinctive triple white eye.
With that he blanked He Yu and went around to the driver's seat.
When he reached He Yu, he clutched his wrist: " Xie Qingcheng, you ......"
"I'm going to say this to you one last time." Xie Qingcheng said in one word, "You get out of my sight, right now."
He shook off He Yu's hand and got into the car with a breeze, slapping the steering wheel so hard that the horn blared loudly.
He Yu grimaced outside the car window, his gaze dropping as he looked inside. His lips move and he seems to say something outside.
Xie Xue wanted to lower the window to scold him, but was stopped by Xie Qingcheng: "Don't pay any attention."
Xie Qingcheng's eyes were terribly cold as he stopped looking at He Yu and said to Xie Xue, "Go home."
It was a pressure post, directly targeting Hu Zhou Medical University and asking Xie Qingcheng to leave.
He Yu took a closer look.
As the Canton Tower affair festers, it is no longer just Xie Qingcheng and those around him who are being targeted.
The pressure of the hordes can sometimes cause an avalanche, and even the Shanghai Medical School has been affected.

He Yu had only wanted to see him, but now he was embarrassed by Xie Qingcheng's cold, peachy eyes.
This embarrassment makes him gloomy, it makes him mean, it makes him search his heart for a reason to be able to strike back at Xie Qingcheng.
At last he managed to pick up a decent one.
The boy said lightly, "...... Well, let me think about it. Maybe it's because I heard you're out of a job now, so I wanted to come back and hire you?"
"He Yu: do you have a fucking eye problem or a brain problem." Xie Qingcheng was more morose than him, "I'm not unemployed."
The boy looked at him calmly, not seeing any other thoughts about the man at all, "You're suspended for who knows how long, so are you going to live on a guaranteed salary."

"It's not even any of your business if I get a disability allowance to get by."
He Yu smiled: "Professor Xie, it's true that you and I have no personal relationship at all, but after thinking about it, although you are quite annoying, your medical skills are not bad, so it's not a bad idea to hire you purely for the purpose of using you."
"I was the one who volunteered to quit in the first place, where did you get the wrong idea that I would ever go back to see you again?"
"Ah, you seem to have misunderstood." He Yu was still gentle, but the words he spat out were extremely unpleasant, "It's not your turn to see me."
"The sanatorium that housed Zhuang Zhiqiang before could give you a position if you're interested." He Yu is so indifferent that no one looking at his proper face would believe that he had done something as absurd as look at a few pictures of Xie Qingcheng on his dormitory bed.
There was a pause.
"It's also a little compensation for having offended you on impulse at the clubhouse earlier."
It's shameless.
Xie Qingcheng, his nose wrinkled and his face like a leopard, suddenly flared up, "What do you think you are, what compensation-"
"That night ......"
"Did anything happen that night? Nothing."
"......"
He Yu had wanted to let the night go, after all, he had no intention of continuing this perverted relationship with Xie Qingcheng, let alone admitting that he had fucked a man for the first time. But when Xie Qingcheng says it before he does, he's not happy about it.
He Yu's eyes slowly narrowed, and finally some fire escaped.
His hand leaned over and pushed Xie Qingcheng between the window and himself: "Xie Qingcheng, are you an Alzheimer?"

"You fucking Parkinson!"
He Yu was scolded by him and his eyes grew darker: "Professor Xie, the cost of living in Hu Zhou is so high, if I remember correctly, your previous salary was just enough to cover your monthly expenses, right? You have to buy books and documents, pay for research, and save for Xie Xue's dowry. If Xie Xue should fall in love with a rich boy, I'll calculate the amount of dowry to satisfy their family ......"
He took a moment to calculate, then raised his dark eyes and looked at Xie Qingcheng calmly and almost compassionately: "You seem to have had to work all year round since the Qin Dynasty until at least 2200."
"......"
"Actually, it's okay to come to me for a difficult time." His voice was softer, and he whispered in his ear in a voice only Xie Qingcheng could hear, "I've thought about it over the past few days. You're the one I've slept with at least, though not the first or the best. But I slept with you so many times that night that you can barely be considered my person. It's only right that I take some responsibility for you."
Xie Qingcheng was almost mad, the way He Yu treated him like a woman made him so angry that he almost lost his mind.
For a moment, he wanted to kill He Yu.
What He Jiwei: what gunshot wounds, what past ...... he did not want to care about, he really wanted He Yu's life.
His emotions undoubtedly reached He Yu's eyes correctly and thoroughly, and He Yu had a vague intuition -
He felt that Xie Qingcheng wanted to bite himself to death.
But in that anger, which could not chew blood and swallow flesh, there seemed to be a strand of something else.
It was just a flash, and he didn't even get a chance to see it.
Xie Qingcheng seems to have relied on that wisp of emotion to keep his hatred alive in the end.
His voice was hoarse, " He Yu, don't laugh me to death, what did you do that day I was drunk but I still remember, you slept with a lot of people? Don't flatter yourself. You think I can't tell when I've only slept with you? Are you inexperienced or am I inexperienced and you're lying to me?"
He Yu's face is blue.

He said morosely, "I've just slept with people, a lot of people."
"So you're really a fucking murderer, didn't the person you slept with before tell you that you're so badly skilled that you could kill someone?"
It's the death knell for nineteen and twenty year old virgins.
He Yu knew that his skills were definitely not good, but the worse they were the more he had to pretend and the less he wanted people to say, and he was instantly offended.
The boy pulled Xie Qingcheng over to him and pinned him to the car, his eyes red: "I'm not good at this? I got you out four times that night, don't you dare say I'm not good at it?"
"Have some fucking face." Xie Qingcheng, holding back his discomfort, raised his hand and patted He Yu's cheek, "You know what happened that night, you don't need me to remind you, a dog in heat would be no worse than you."
He Yu looked like he was about to tear his bones apart and said, word for word, "Does it look like I'm the one who didn't get a dog to keep you company, or am I the one who didn't serve you well?"
Xie Qingcheng pushed him hard, not wanting to be entangled with him anymore: "Go away."
"......"
"Get out."
He Yu laughed in anger and called out to him, " Xie Qingcheng ."
"......"
"Don't be so impetuous, consider what I'm saying, no one in the whole of Hu Zhou would dare take you in right now except me."
Xie Qingcheng turned back to me with a cold expression, "Listen carefully, I don't need your sympathy even if I die of hunger."
"So what are you going to do? Curl up in your snail's den every day and eat instant noodles?"

He was looking down on the despondent man with sarcasm and resentment when he heard a loud, irritated voice behind him, followed by a heavy object hitting He Yu on the back of the head!
"Why don't you go to hell, He Yu! You're crazy!"
He Yu was hit extremely hard by what turned out to be another heavy women's shoe with a sloping heel. His eyes clouded over and he turned to see Xie Xue running angrily towards him.
Both he and Xie Qingcheng were shocked.
For a moment Xie Qingcheng's face turned extremely pale, and He Yu was no better, but they had no intention of bringing their scandal to light, no matter how disgusting they were to each other in private. Especially not by the people around them.
But as Xie Xue came closer, they both saw her angry but unsurprised expression and knew that she had probably not been here long, or that He Yu had consciously lowered her voice when he said those dirty words so that she had not heard them.
Just what she heard was enough to make her angry.
What snail's pace? I'm the only one in the whole of Hu Zhou who dares to take you in?
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes today, she wouldn't have believed that He Yu could say such things to someone else, that He Yu could have such a clothed side, let alone that there would be such a pattern in the way her brother and He Yu got along with each other.
When she saw that He Yu had changed his attitude towards Xie Qingcheng, she couldn't stand it any longer, she pulled away from He Yu and opened her hands in front of Xie Qingcheng's face, her eyes seemed to be burning like a mountain of fire. "Don't you dare contradict my brother!
"......"
He Yu looked at her as she swallowed the mountain, speechless for a moment.
How much does she really think she has?
Once upon a time he let her, protected her, secretly bullied her yet helped her all the time so that she could strut her stuff in front of him, unaware of the sky.
But what if he didn't care about her anymore?

It is no harder to collect her than to crush an ant.
She dared to stop in front of him, hit him with something, and call his bluff?
He Yu simply finds it ridiculous.
But Xie Xue is still Xie Xue, even if many things are his own comforting fantasies, and she is the one who has always been the best to him, and his heart has gone from excruciating pain to numbness, and today he seems to expect nothing more, but he will not really do anything to Xie Xue.
He Yu just looked at her almost indifferently, the corners of his lips tugging with a touch of sarcasm in his indifference.
"Don't you know any better? I'm doing him a favour."
"What are you helping you! You're just being snide! I heard it all!" Xie Xue, like a lioness in a fury, shouted with a fierceness He Yu had never seen before, "Why are you suddenly treating him like this? Did you also believe the gossip outside? I'm telling you, He Yu! You don't have to disgust my brother! If he's suspended, he's suspended, but I'm still here! Even if he doesn't work, I can support him!"
"......" Xie Qingcheng watched her back with an indescribable feeling.
He was so used to being a big old man that he rarely spoke any soft words to his sister, and was not quite used to smacking the warmth between loved ones. Still, at this time, something soft and foreign stirred within his solid chest.
He Yu lifted his hand and touched the back of his head, which was still vaguely sore; fortunately it hadn't been smashed and bled.
He gave Xie Xue a sombre look: "How much is your internship salary? Is it enough for you to buy kebabs?"
Xie Xue was riveted: "What do you care! You're afraid you have some serious illness! I won't eat kebabs! I won't die even if I don't eat kebabs for the rest of my life! You go away!"
Seeing He Yu staring at Xie Xue, his eyes became more and more unkind.
Xie Qingcheng pulled Xie Xue over to him, who was still cursing emotionally: "You're so proud to have a couple of bucks! You're rich, aren't you? What? You know how to humiliate people! Do you believe I'll make you fail this term? I'll give you a zero for the overall daily exam! Who do you think you are, He Yu! I didn't know you were so sick and scum before! You're a psychopath! Scum!"
The psychopath is almost like a dragon's scales to He Yu, not to mention Xie Xue's mouth.
He Yu looked even more grim than before: "Try cursing me again."
"Even if she curses you a hundred times, what can you do to her."
It was Xie Qingcheng who spoke.
Xie Qingcheng pulled Xie Xue behind him and forced him to look at He Yu, his voice not loud, but his tone extremely cold and hard: "With me here, what can you do to her, He Yu. What the fuck are you going to do to me? If I don't kill you today, I'll take your name."
"......"
"You mustn't forget that I have no father, no mother, no wife and no children, and that honour is of no importance to me. I have nothing to care about except Xie Xue. If you dare touch her, I'll play with you."
He Yu: "......"
Xie Qingcheng reassures the girl twice, but his eyes are still fixed on the young man across the room.
"Get in, Xie Xue ."
Xie Xue was still furious and unrelenting: " He Yu, your mother--"
"Don't swear, get in."
"......"
Xie Xue was forced into the car.
Xie Qingcheng slammed the passenger door shut for her and raised his eyes to look at He Yu again, his sharp gaze shifting from eye to eye, glancing over, his peach blossom eyes floating upwards and falling into a more distinctive triple white eye.
With that he blanked He Yu and went around to the driver's seat.
When he reached He Yu, he clutched his wrist: " Xie Qingcheng, you ......"
"I'm going to say this to you one last time." Xie Qingcheng said in one word, "You get out of my sight, right now."
He shook off He Yu's hand and got into the car with a breeze, slapping the steering wheel so hard that the horn blared loudly.
He Yu grimaced outside the car window, his gaze dropping as he looked inside. His lips move and he seems to say something outside.
Xie Xue wanted to lower the window to scold him, but was stopped by Xie Qingcheng: "Don't pay any attention."
Xie Qingcheng's eyes were terribly cold as he stopped looking at He Yu and said to Xie Xue, "Go home."
