Study System: I'm a 38-Year-Old Student-Chapter 259 - 176: From Now On, Our Paths Will Never Cross Again

Chapter 259: Chapter 176: From Now On, Our Paths Will Never Cross Again

Lin Yufei looked utterly despondent and turned to Kong Xiaoyi: "What should I do?"

"You can only tell the truth!"

Kong Xiaoyi shrugged.

"Then you help back me up."

Lin Yufei sat down next to Kong Xiaoyi, then answered the video call.

On the phone screen appeared a beautiful woman looking about thirty-something. She wore a light gray suit jacket with a creamy white silk blouse underneath, the collar slightly open, revealing half of a fair clavicle and a Van Cleef & Arpels necklace.

There wasn’t a hint of a smile on her delicate face, her eyes full of scrutiny.

"Where is he?"

She spoke with an icy tone.

"Xiaoyi is here."

Lin Yufei was still struggling to make a last effort.

"Hello, Auntie～"

Kong Xiaoyi cooperated and waved her hand.

But as a judge, Zhou Yamin naturally wasn’t fooled by such a small trick.

She nodded at Kong Xiaoyi as a form of greeting, then started interrogating her daughter again: "Make that guy come over!"

"Mom..."

"Hurry up, the plane is about to take off soon!"

Zhou Yamin directly interrupted her daughter’s continued excuses, currently on the plane herself.

Lin Yufei looked utterly despondent.

But Shen Yixiao, who had figured out the situation, didn’t back down; he directly came over, gesturing for Kong Xiaoyi to give up her spot, which she was more than happy to do, quickly standing up.

After Shen Yixiao sat down, he waved at Zhou Yamin in the video with a smile: "Hello, Auntie."

"I know you’re angry now, but this is really a misunderstanding."

"Your daughter was only trying to help me..."

Shen Yixiao briefly explained what had happened.

"What’s your name?"

To Shen Yixiao’s surprise, Zhou Yamin didn’t delve into the story.

"Shen Yixiao."

"Which school?"

"Sanjiang University."

"What major?"

"Sports Training."

"Did you come all the way from Sanjiang to Beijing to find Yufei?"

Obviously, Zhou Yamin didn’t believe Shen Yixiao’s earlier story at all.

"Uh, no!"

"Auntie, didn’t I just say..."

Shen Yixiao was at a loss for words.

However, Zhou Yamin interrupted him again: "Are you free for lunch today?"

"Uh, yes."

"Then let’s have lunch together!"

"Alright then, that’s it for now, the plane’s about to take off."

With that, Zhou Yamin directly hung up the video call, not even saying goodbye to her daughter.

"Yufei, your mom seems quite fiery-tempered!"

Shen Yixiao remarked.

"She isn’t like this usually."

Lin Yufei rubbed her forehead, muttering gloomily: "How did she know about your existence?"

"It shouldn’t be!"

"Kong Xiaoyi!"

"Did you rat me out??"

Lin Yufei looked at her best friend who was standing aside enjoying the drama.

"How is that possible, do I look like such a person!"

Knowing the answer, Kong Xiaoyi shook her head and then suggested: "I think I heard two phone rings."

Knowing he caused the trouble, Shen Yixiao said softly: "I half-consciously answered a call."

"It really isn’t my fault, your ringtone is the same as mine..."

"You!"

Lin Yufei rolled her eyes, puffing her little mouth in annoyance: "What a pig mate!"

"Who would know you were sleeping beside me."

Shen Yixiao muttered softly.

The scene when waking up came to mind, making Lin Yufei’s face blush immediately, her big eyes glaring: "If we weren’t worried about you being in danger, Xiaoyi and I wouldn’t bother about you."

"Truly a case of repaying kindness with ingratitude!"

"Like the farmer and the snake..."

Feeling guilty, Shen Yixiao remained silent, quietly replaying yesterday’s event in his mind.

Painful emotions surged into his heart.

However, he suddenly remembered something; he indeed witnessed Luo Yao getting off from the Porsche.

She even deceived him over the phone, yet he hadn’t brought up the breakup, nor did he have any contact with Luo Yao yesterday.

After hesitating for a moment, he picked up the spare phone Lin Yufei lent him and opened WeChat.

Then he saw the breakup message Luo Yao sent him.

Although he had already made up his mind yesterday, he still felt a sudden pang when he saw the message from Luo Yao.

But he actually replied?

Shen Yixiao saw that he had sent a voice message.

Yet he had no recollection of it at all.

Pressing play. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Shen Yixiao wanted to hear what he had said.

But what played was Lin Yufei’s voice...

Uh?

Both Shen Yixiao and Kong Xiaoyi, enjoying the drama from the side, looked at Lin Yufei with confusion.

"Seeing her so pretentious, I couldn’t help it, but hey, I was venting your anger too!"

Lin Yufei explained softly, since she was aware it was wrong to look through someone else’s WeChat without permission and even replied.

"Then I have to thank you, don’t I!"

Feeling his privacy invaded, Shen Yixiao responded with annoyance.

"You’re welcome!"

Lin Yufei pouted.

Shen Yixiao didn’t say anything, opened Luo Yao’s Moments.

Sure enough, there was just a horizontal line.

Most likely, Luo Yao already blocked him.

After a moment of hesitation.

Shen Yixiao directly deleted Luo Yao from his friend list.

Then deleted all content related to her on his Moments one by one...

Each time he deleted a Moment, it felt like a dull knife was stabbing into him.

Both painful and torturous.

After all was done.

Shen Yixiao leaned back on the sofa, exhaling a deep breath.

At 18 years old,

he was experiencing heartbreak for the first time.

Even though he deleted everything about Luo Yao on his phone,

the memories in his mind could not be erased!

After all, it was his first love.

There were the "stormy" public apologies in front of the whole school,

and the "deep feelings" of boys and girls at the private cinema.
