Chapter 106 Gap
"Happy birthday to you, Qiao Qiao."

Qiao Susu's nose turned red, and she closed her eyes and made a wish to hide the struggle in her eyes.

Zong Fang stared at her quietly, with a smile in his eyes, and asked in a low voice: "What did you wish for?"

Qiao Susu lowered her eyes, and when she heard him ask this, her eyelashes trembled slightly. She said, "I want a life that is controlled by myself." After saying this, without looking at Zong Fang whose smile froze on his lips, she suddenly blew out the candle, and also blew out the light in her heart.

In order to create an atmosphere, all the lights in the hall were turned off. After the candles were extinguished, the two stood in the dim darkness.

Qiao Suisui thought of the news from Ah Jin, her eyes darkened, and she did not take the cake from him. Instead, she raised her eyes and looked at him, saying very calmly: "Zong Fang, I have thought about it seriously these past few days, and we are not suitable."

The silver pupils shrank suddenly, and Zongfang said in a low voice: "Stop talking."

"I don't want to continue with you."

"do not talk!"

Zong Fang tilted his head, his eyes were deep, and because of the light, no one could see his expression.

"What will it take for you to forgive me?"

Qiao Suisui shook her head and said seriously, "No, I don't blame you. You don't need to apologize to me. It's just that I really feel that our personalities are not suitable."

Zongfang laughed at himself, "Who is suitable? Scorsese? Libery? Or the little one next to you..." His teeth were almost broken, but he insisted on not spitting out the last two words. He didn't know whether he didn't dare to ask at this time because he didn't want to lose control of his emotions in front of her, or because he didn't dare to hear her answer.

The man took a deep breath, closed his eyes and suppressed the anger in his eyes. After adjusting himself, he opened his eyes again and whispered, "If you think it's inappropriate, at least tell me the problem and I can change it."

He gently took her wrist and stroked her wrist bone with his thumb, full of helplessness and pleading: "Why do you sentence me to death like this?"

She looked straight into his eyes and said, "There are... insurmountable differences between us."

She really wanted to be with him...but he was too unstable...

"If you want to love me, love me. If you want to abandon me, abandon me. Qiao Suisui, why? If I hadn't been pestering you all the time, would we still be standing here talking?"

"Do you really think that our relationship is all because of you?" Qiao Suisui shook off his hand, looked up and stared at him, "You imprisoned me, locked me in a space, and didn't let me contact other people. You would be suspicious of others if they said a few more words to each other, and threatened to kill them. If you were me, would you fall in love with such a person?"

Zongfang was speechless.

"Even so, I still want to try to be with you. I know you are willful and domineering, but I still fantasize that we can balance the differences in this relationship."

He froze in place, the blockage in his chest making it hard for him to breathe, and his voice became dry when he spoke: "Then let's try again. This time I promise, Qiao Qiao, I really promise, I will do it well."

"You killed Simon, didn't you?"

Ajin sent a tactful message to persuade her to drop out, and briefly told her the whole story, saying that the Simon family had threatened to hunt her down. When Qiao Suisui received the notice of expulsion from the school, she stared at the message for a long time.

She felt like a piece of driftwood in the boundless ocean. No matter how hard she tried to control the direction, she was still carried by the waves to where she had to go.

Not knowing why she suddenly brought this up, Zong Fang pursed his lips and said nothing, his face extremely gloomy. After a long while, he squeezed out three words from between his teeth: "He deserves to die."

Qiao Susui smiled bitterly, "Look, can a person change so easily? You only know how to deal with problems in this way." "What's the problem? He almost killed you, and I'm being merciful by only killing him!"

"Yes, with your strength, of course you can ignore the consequences! But Simon is dead, no one will care that you killed him, they only believe what they want to believe! His family has now reported to the Federation, my identity can no longer be used in school, and they may even try to kill me to pay for my life!"

Qiao Suisui became colder and colder as she spoke, and in the end she didn't even have the thought of arguing with him, she just felt powerless. If it wasn't for self-protection, she didn't want to kill Simon at all. Even though she knew this was a game world, everything was so realistic that she couldn't remain indifferent. She knew that Zong Fang was violent, but she didn't expect him to be so impulsive and even act so high-profile.

Even though the two people are so close to each other, they seem to be separated by mountains and seas and find it difficult to understand each other.

The cake had fallen to the ground without her knowing. The silent and depressing atmosphere made Qiao Susu not want to continue talking. In the end, she only said: "I'm tired and don't want to try anymore."

Zong Fang didn't look at her back as she left, but looked at the cake on the ground. His hair covered his eyes, and his voice was flat, like a walking corpse: "Who did you call first when you were trapped in the library?"

Hearing the sudden question, Qiao Suisui frowned in confusion, and then she heard him say, "One last question. Answer me, and I won't bother you anymore."

She answered truthfully: "A classmate."

The man seemed to know the answer in advance and did not react. With the last hope, he asked, "The one with brown hair?"

The one with brown hair is Li Yi. She shook her head and said, "My roommate."

Hearing this, Zong Fang smiled, and his smile was extremely bitter. "They are both classmates, why did you call him first?"

Qiao Suisui was stunned by the question. She had never thought about this question. It was completely subconscious at that time. If she had to explain why, it was because she only trusted Bi and Li Yi in school. She called Karl because she knew he was nearby so she took a gamble. And Zongfang's next question made her speechless.

"Even if it was because of the distance, why didn't you call your mentor Jin, but him?"

How can a classmate without mental strength help you?
Zong Fang really wanted to ask this question, but he felt that the answer to this question was too cruel, not to Qiao Susu, but to himself.

Seeing her frowning and mumbling, Zongfang suddenly burst into laughter, as if he had heard something very funny. He wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, bent over and laughed.

Qiao Susu was frightened by his abnormality. Just as she took a step forward to look at him, she saw Zong Fang turn around and leave, pushing her in and closing the door.

One door, two people.

The people inside the door felt bitter.

The person outside the door laughed sadly.

His body slid down against the door little by little, and finally sat on the ground.

It turned out that she really didn't understand anything, not even knowing she liked him. He looked up and couldn't stop laughing. At this moment, he felt like a clown, funny and ridiculous. Even if he took a step back, he could tolerate Scorsese and Libery, but he couldn't tolerate that boy.

She didn't love him, that was okay, he had time to take his time. Just like the other two men. That was at least a balance.

But once he found out, she would take the initiative to rely on him, she would worry about him, and even asked others to take care of him before leaving. When she was in danger, she would think of him first. Zong Fang saw her sincerity and found that the boundary between liking and not liking was so clear.
His laughter was stiff and long-lasting, and tears kept falling from the corners of his eyes until the laughter dried up. He covered his face with his hands, smiling ferociously, and between his fingers, a pair of eyes full of murderous intent appeared.
