He Xuebing hadn’t finished speaking when Xia Xiao raised her hand to stop him. She shook her head and said, "Mr. He, you should go back. There’s no possibility for us anymore. Don’t co looking for in the future, and don’t write to again. I’ve destroyed all the letters you sent , and I hope you’ve destroyed the ones I sent you or you can return them to ."
Xia Xiao, you can’t sentence to death just because my mother was wrong," He Xuebing pleaded, unwilling to accept the situation. They had been fine, but now everything had changed, and he couldn’t accept it.
Xia Xiao looked at him and sighed inwardly, "I can’t beco family with you, nor can I have any connection with your mother. Mr. He, we’re not suitable for each other. Besides, didn’t your mother say there’s a Regint Commander’s daughter pursuing you? I wish you happiness."
"What Regint Commander’s daughter? That’s absolutely impossible," He Xuebing snapped, shocked and angered that his mother had told Xia Xiao about it.
Xia Xiao didn’t want to talk to He Xuebing anymore. She simply said, "Just go. After all, we were never together, never dated. It’s better for us to remain strangers. I’m not worthy of the He family."
After speaking, Xia Xiao didn’t wait for He Xuebing to leave; she turned and walked away.
He Xuebing was left standing there dazed for a long ti before he eventually returned to the He family, where naturally, a big quarrel ensued.
Mainly, it was a quarrel between the brothers He Xuegang and He Xuebing. He Xuegang felt that He Xuebing was so bewitched by Xia Xiao that he couldn’t find his bearings and had argued with the family because of her, which was really improper.
He Hongjun called He Xuebing into his room, and after a long talk, He Hongjun finally said, "Forget about Educated Youth Xia. It’s not possible. Educated Youth Xia is too stubborn and unwilling to take any slight, and she can’t get along with your mother."
By this ti, He Hongjun had given up on Xia Xiao, feeling that her obstinate nature wasn’t suitable for marrying into the He family.
He Xuebing was disheartened.
anwhile, He Xuegang went to find Dong ihua and bluntly said, "Would you be willing to marry , to let take care of you?"
Dong ihua was stunned as she looked at He Xuegang. If it had been He Xuebing saying this to her, she would have been very happy, but it was He Xuegang standing in front of her.
Dong ihua didn’t speak, and He Xuegang continued, "You’re not in good terms with your dormitory mates now, and you’ve offended Xia Xiao because of my mother. You must be feeling wronged living there, let take care of you."
Dong ihua didn’t know which of He Xuegang’s words had touched a nerve, but upon hearing them, she just shed tears—not only felt wronged, her reputation in the production team was also not good now.
Moreover, with a Regint Commander’s daughter in the picture, Dong ihua knew that there was no possibility between He Xuebing and Xia Xiao, and even less so between herself and He Xuebing.
She wanted to leave the production team and return to the city more than getting married at the mont, but it was simply not possible.
Dong ihua felt sowhat desperate, yet in the production team, only the He family could help her, but could the He Xuegang in front of her bring her happiness?
Dong ihua was not unaware of He Xuegang’s interest in her; he had even written her letters, but she had ignored them. She liked He Xuebing and didn’t want to get involved with He Xuegang.
He Xuegang didn’t wait for Dong ihua to give an imdiate answer, instead saying, "You don’t have to rush to reply. I’ll be ho for a few more days. If you agree, I’ll file for a marriage report imdiately when I return to the military."
As Dong ihua watched He Xuegang’s departing figure, she thought to herself: He Xuegang did love her, and she got along well with Shengi. Perhaps marrying into the He family wouldn’t be so bad.
After all, the He family did seem a good place for her to end up, as sooner or later she had to marry soone and He Xuegang was a decent man. Although not comparable to He Xuebing, at least He Xuegang truly cared about her.
That sa day, Gao Jiaxing and He Xuebing fought each other in the hill behind, both ending up with swollen faces and bruises, clearly showing neither had held back.
"Seriously, Bingzi, if your mom keeps this up, soday she’ll ruin you," Gao Jiaxing was truly speechless about Li Shengi. "Since she intercepted your letters and spoke so carelessly even though you’re her son, I don’t know what’s going on in your mother’s head."
"And besides, it’s bad enough that your mom is intercepting ordinary letters, but imagine if you were dealing with confidential matters in the military in the future. If your mom pulls this stunt then, you’re definitely screwed."
Although Gao Jiaxing spoke bluntly, he wasn’t exaggerating. If Li Shengi continued her reckless behavior, she would eventually ruin her son.
"I guess you’re happy that Xia Xiao and I are no longer possible," He Xuebing asked Gao Jiaxing.
"Of course, I knew with your mom stirring up trouble, it wouldn’t be easy for you tw oto be together, but I didn’t expect it to end so quickly. To be honest, I feel sorry for you."
As soon as Gao Jiaxing finished speaking, He Xuebing gave him a look, "Cut it out. Even if I wasn’t dating Xia Xiao, it’s not like you’d have a chance."
Gao Jiaxing paused, but then raised his eyebrows at He Xuebing, "Anyway, I have more hope than you."
He Xuebing said, "If you like her so much, why don’t you tell her?"
"I haven’t found the right mont." It was Gao Jiaxing’s turn to be frustrated. Initially, when Xia Xiao asked, he said he didn’t like her. Later, realizing his true feelings, he wanted to score well in the college entrance exam to impress her and confess his feelings. Unfortunately, he did poorly on the exam, and now Gao Jiaxing felt utterly defeated and even more unsure how to broach the topic.
"What opportunity do you need? You’re just cowardly." At this point, He Xuebing laughed, "I didn’t expect Gao Er to be so cowardly. Are you afraid Xia Xiao would reject you?"
Gao Jiaxing swung his fist at He Xuebing who narrowly dodged it, "Honestly, I really don’t want you and Xia Xiao to be together. One of you is my good buddy and the other is the woman I like. If you two got together, it would really upset ."
"Who’s your good buddy? I’m your rival."
He Xuebing laughed at Gao Jiaxing’s remark, stood up, and said to him, "Though I don’t want it, since you are adamant, I still hope you take good care of her, protect her."
"You needn’t worry about it, I’m not you." Gao Jiaxing also stood up.
He Xuebing had already turned away and left, his silhouette reflecting a lonely, heavy deanor.
Gao Jiaxing returned ho, Zheng Xianghong saw his expression and didn’t ask, just shook her head and said, "The dicine is in the dicine box, get it yourself and apply so."
Gao Jiaxing didn’t say much, just took the dicine box and went to his room.
anwhile, He Xuebing ca ho to find Li Shengi utterly shocked, she scread, "Son, who beat you up?"
He Xuebing didn’t respond but instead said to Li Shengi, "Mom, give back my letters."
Li Shengi paused, and He Hongjun imdiately said, "Hurry up and give Bingzi his letters back. What are you thinking?"
He Xuegang said, "Just burn the letters."
He Hongjun nodded in agreent, and so they burned them.
When Li Shengi finally took out the letters, He Xuebing’s brows furrowed deeply — there were three letters.
He Xuebing growled, "Mom, why did you have to be my mother?"
