Xu Xu tightly grasped the milk tea cup, trying to stay calm: "No, I didn’t intend to threaten you with anything."
Shi Yang glared at him: "Then why did you ask out today?"
Xu Xu said with difficulty: "I, I don’t agree with you being with ii..."
Shi Yang interrupted him: "Xu Xu, what position are you taking to talk to now?"
Xu Xu’s secret love for Zhao ii had always been a thorn in Shi Yang’s side, where he couldn’t tolerate others being around his bed.
Towards Zhao ii, Shi Yang had always been domineering and dictatorial.
Xu Xu had always been around Zhao ii. Shi Yang had refrained from taking action out of tolerance, because he knew that after the college entrance exam, no matter how much Xu Xu wanted, it would be beyond his reach. Moreover, Zhao ii’s wholehearted affection for him made him lazy to deal with Xu Xu,
But Xu Xu’s antics today completely enraged Shi Yang.
Xu Xu actually dared to stalk Zhao ii. Such behavior, whether Shi Yang viewed it as family or from the perspective of a boyfriend, was intolerable to him; it was an open provocation.
The anger Shi Yang felt upon receiving Xu Xu’s call made him, for the first ti, feel the urge to properly teach Xu Xu a lesson. He couldn’t tolerate Xu Xu’s behavior, especially since Xu Xu dared to claim in front of him that he disagreed with his relationship with Zhao ii.
Shi Yang looked coldly at Xu Xu, his eyes filled with a chilling iciness. He had never been a pushover, and many people were deceived by his outward appearance, unable to see through his handso, gentle facade to the rebellious and fierce blood flowing within.
Shi Yang’s tenderness was reserved only for those he cared about. To him, Xu Xu, who dared to make a scene on his turf, was completely unaware of the danger he was in.
Shi Yang placed his hands on the dining table and suddenly smiled. That smile stung Xu Xu’s eyes.
Shi Yang repeated what he had said earlier: "Xu Xu, what position are you taking to say these things to ?"
Xu Xu said: "I am ii’s friend."
Shi Yang’s eyes showed a mocking look: "If I tell ii about today’s events, do you think you two can continue being friends?"
Xu Xu’s eyes turned red: "I, I’m doing it for her own good."
Shi Yang put away his smile: "What makes you think you have the right to say it’s for her own good?"
Shi Yang looked directly into his eyes: "Were you the one financially supporting her? Or taking care of her daily life? If you didn’t have a personal agenda with my ii, your actions today and the things you said might barely seem acceptable, aligning with what’s good for my ii in a forced way. But you covet my ii, and your actions now seem so dirty and unpresentable to ."
Xu Xu gritted his teeth, trembling as he spoke: "I, I like ii, but my love is pure..."
Shi Yang suddenly beca furious. His handso face showed anxiety and ferocity: "You sneakily followed my ii, ca to behind her back to negotiate, and you call that pure affection? ii and I are in a relationship, yet you created this scene knowing full well about us. Tell , what’s your real intention?"
Shi Yang’s gaze was intimidating, his voice harsh: "Xu Xu, let tell you, based on today’s actions, I look down on you. This isn’t sothing a man would do! I previously ignored you because I thought you were at least a good student with excellent character. My ii is beautiful and outstanding. Your admiration shows my ii’s excellence and proves that I have good taste. But you’ve truly let down. The fact that you’re capable of doing such underhanded things behind the scenes ans I absolutely can’t let you off easily!"
Xu Xu also got anxious, Shi Yang’s words sharply hitting his sore spot, causing him imnse heartache.
In front of his rival in love, being spoken to so disdainfully, it felt as though his pride and dignity were simultaneously crushed underfoot. In that instant, a man’s self-respect and emotions were painfully pierced, leaving him feeling extrely uncomfortable and cold inside. Yet, he was unable to confidently refute because what the other party said were facts.
Xu Xu was overwheld with dejection, his throat choked, unable to speak.
After forcefully swallowing, he dryly defended: "I love ii. I truly do. I just haven’t confessed to her. I had planned to confess after the college entrance exam..."
Xu Xu’s mind was a ss; all he could do was honestly express his feelings. He just wanted to show that his affection for Zhao ii was sincere and without malice; he never intended to harm anyone, just purely admired Zhao ii.
Shi Yang’s expression grew darker the more he listened. Xu Xu’s declaration not only failed to remove him from the category of petty villain but instead escalated Shi Yang’s vexation to a new level.
The lengthy relationship over the past year had brought Shi Yang’s possessiveness towards Zhao ii to a monuntal peak. Zhao ii’s heart was his, her body was his, and now Xu Xu suddenly erged to fan the flas, wanting to pursue Zhao ii and planning to confess after the college entrance exam. The kid was clearly asking for trouble!
Shi Yang took several deep breaths to suppress the sourness welling up inside him and ground out through clenched teeth: "Xu Xu, you certainly have so nerve, thinking you can undercut my territory?"
This immature kid dared to challenge him, Shi Yang. Completely enraged, Shi Yang rolled up his sleeves, ready to show Xu Xu so real consequences.
Shi Yang stood up from the chair, about to reach across the table to grab him, when Zhao ii suddenly burst in from outside the milk tea shop.
"Brother!"
Shi Yang stood up and turned to look at Zhao ii.
Xu Xu’s face changed drastically, sitting helplessly in the chair, looking defeated.
Zhao ii gasped as she ran over, propping herself against the table to stand between the two of them, adjusting her breath with difficulty. The biting cold wind of the winter almost blew her lungs out.
The violence in Shi Yang’s expression had no ti to recede. He asked in a deep voice: "Why are you here?"
Zhao ii didn’t answer; instead, she turned her head to Xu Xu and asked: "Why are you looking for my brother? What do you want to talk to him about?"
Zhao ii’s thin eyelids slanted with obvious irritation as she questioned Xu Xu: "Answer !"
Xu Xu’s chest heaving, his face pale, the stubbornness of a young man in his expression. The emotions suppressed by Shi Yang suddenly burst out as he trembled: "I know you’re with him, but, ii, I like you. I’ve always liked you, from childhood to now. All these years, I’ve secretly liked you. I originally planned to tell you after the college entrance exam; why couldn’t you just wait for ?"
