Chapter 366: Did You Do Something Wrong Again?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Brother Song Zhou, life as a celebrity isn’t easy. If there’s a scandal, people will dig up everything about me. If this matter gets out of hand, it won’t be good for either of us.”
Mi Qing watched Song Zhou’s expression and cried even more sorrowfully.
“Brother Song Zhou, although I’m very sad that I can’t be your wife after breaking off our engagement…”
“I still treat you as my brother. Just take pity on me and help me one last time. One last time. I won’t ask anything more of you.”
Song Zhou was silent for a long time before he said, “Alright, I’ll attend Jack’s engagement ceremony with you. You will clarify our relationship once we are back.”
“After that, please don’t contact me unless it’s about work. Let’s go our separate ways.”
Mi Qing was upset when she heard that Song Zhou wanted to cut ties with her.
She had saved his life!
Now that he had money and another woman, he wanted to get rid of her? No way!
If she did not live well, he could forget about peace!
“Okay, we have deal. Let’s fly out tomorrow.”
Song Zhou didn’t want to talk to her anymore, so he got up and left.
He went to the dance studio to fetch Ruan Qi and explained the matter to her. Ruan Qi was so angry that she laughed.
“She obviously wants to pester you. Song Zhou, do you know what it means for me when she announced that?”
“I will ask Mi Qing to clarify. But we have already called off our engagement. She said that she’s my fiancee just as a public relations tactic. It’s just entertainment gossip. Don’t believe it.”
Song Zhou was afraid that Ruan Qi would misunderstand his relationship with Mi Qing.
Ruan Qi stared at him for a long time. “Do you still feel like you owe her?”
Song Zhou pursed his lips and replied honestly, “Yes, she saved my life after all. I treat her like a younger sister. Ruan Qi, give me more time.”
Ruan Qi sneered and turned way to wipe her tears.
Song Zhou couldn’t bear to see her cry and wanted to get close to her and comfort her, but the woman pushed him away and didn’t want him to touch her.
The two of them were in a silent deadlock.
They had another fight.
Song Zhou took a deep breath. “Ruan Qi, I’m sorry.”
“I don’t want to hear you say sorry. Why must you say sorry? What did you do wrong that you are sorry for?”
Ruan Qi did not like it at all. How could he just leave her with an “I’m sorry” when he hurt her because of someone else?
What was the point?
No point at all!
“Ruan Qi…”
”1 don’t want your apology. If you say sorry again, it’s over between us.”
Song Zhou felt like he had been stabbed in the heart when he heard Ruan Qi say that she would break up with him.
He held her hand as he said, “Ruan Qi, take back your words about breaking up.”
“Why don’t you want to break up? Are you happy holding your fiancee’s hand with your left hand and mine with your right hand?”
“Ruan Qi, Mi Qing did this PR move without my knowledge. We’ve already canceled our engagement. What else do I have to say for you to believe me?”
“Is there any use in believing you?” Ruan Qi sneered and asked him back.
She had argued with him repeatedly because of Mi Qing.
Ruan Qi knew very well that this was Mi Qing’s trick. She couldn’t control her anger even if she and Song Zhou had called off their engagement.
Because of the news Mi Qing spread, her own mother had accused her of having no self-respect or self-love.
If word got out, all her classmates would think that she was someone’s mistress. How would they look at her then?
He did not understand the pressure she was under!
Song Zhou fell silent again, causing the atmosphere to drop to a freezing point.
At this moment, Song Zhou’s phone rang.
He was so annoyed that he didn’t even look at it. He pressed the answer button and heard a familiar yet unfamiliar voice. He was surprised and stunned.
“You finally answered my call. I’ve been wanting to treat you to a meal for a long time. When are you free?”
The voice on the phone was not loud, but Ruan Qi heard everything.
She looked at him in shock. “Song Zhou, you know quite a lot of women.”
“No, I don’t know this woman well. She’s looking for Young Master.” Annoyed, Song Zhou hung up the phone.
“But why would a call for your young master come to your phone? Song Zhou, how many more secrets are you hiding?”
The more he explained, the worse the situation would become. Song Zhou’s head already hurt, so he decided not to say anything.
He just deleted the caller’s number right in front of Ruan Qi.
“Would you believe me now? I really don’t know that woman well.”
Ruan Qi looked at him doubtfully. “Did Mi Qing say that she will clarify the matter?”
“Yes, but she needs more time to prepare before she calms this matter down. She asked for more time.”
Ruan Qi’s expression softened a little, but she kept her arms crossed and kept her distance from him.
At night, the two of them lay on the same bed.
Seeing that she was still lying with her back to him, Song Zhou leaned closer to her.
He mustered up his courage and said, “Miss Ruan, I love you.”
Ruan Qi looked at him strangely when she heard his sudden confession.
“Why are you saying this? Did you do something wrong again?”
“No, I just suddenly want to tell you.”
“You can be angry with me or quarrel with me if I did something wrong, but you’re not allowed to talk about breaking up.”
Hearing his aggrieved words, Ruan Qi bit her lip. He wasn’t the one who created the mess; he was innocent too.
Perhaps because it was late at night, she was a little soft-hearted.
“I’ve also said some harsh words. I’m sorry too.”
“No, it’s not your fault. It’s my fault for not handling the matter well and letting you suffer. Ruan Qi, it’s only right for you to be upset.” Song Zhou’s heart ached when he heard her apology.
He approached her tentatively and pulled her into his arms.
He said to her, “I didn’t handle this matter well. I will think of a way to cut all ties with her.”
Ruan Qi snuggled in his arms while she thought about the saved life between Song Zhou and Mi Qing. How could he cut all ties with her?
Although Song Zhou did not love Mi Qing, he did treat her as his sister. He would prioritize her in many things. If she acted selfishly as his girlfriend, she would put him in a difficult position.
The next day, Song Zhou asked Jiang Jingchen for some time off because he had to go abroad to deal with some matters.
Jiang Jingchen looked at him for a long time before he asked, “What is it?”
“It’s a private matter.”
Jiang Jingchen couldn’t interfere since Song Zhou said that it was a private matter.
But he still cautioned Song Zhou, “You’d better tell your girlfriend about Mi Qing. Don’t let the problem fester.”
“Yes, I will.”
Jiang Jingchen added, “Don’t say that I didn’t help you. Cut ties if you need to.
Calling off the engagement without cutting ties will get you nowhere.”
Song Zhou lowered his eyes and said, “I’ll cut ties with Mi Qing.”
Song Zhou thought that he was giving Mi Qing one last chance. If she dared to do anything funny, he would never let her off.
Ruan Qi received a message from Song Zhou in the afternoon when she was in class. He said that he had to go abroad to settle some matters and it might take a few days.
Ruan Qi thought that since he had to settle something, she naturally wouldn’t stop him and just told him to be careful.
After school, Ruan Qi and Tang Beibei rehearsed their dance for the medical conference. Professor Chen implied that they had to add something new to their dance drama to make the classical play more interesting.
Tang Beibei thought about their theme. If they were to create something new, they could do it to either the characters or the storyline.
She chatted with Fu Jin for a long time and changed the love-heavy plot slightly. The four of them took another day to adjust the choreography. The day before the medical conference, Professor Chen asked Tang Beibei about her program.
Tang Beibei replied, “Professor Chen, we’ve already made some adjustments, but we can’t show it to you because we have a surprise..”
