C113 Open Rivalry and Covert Strife

Ou Jingyi seemed to have lost her rationality, her voice was still as loud as before, "I don't care. From the age of entering the academy, it's perfectly justified for you to call me senior. If you don't receive me, I can complain to the academy." Although the school's volunteers were a type of voluntary labor without any complaints, I still left with Ou Jingyi in order to resolve the issue.

There were already quite a number of people who had cast their gazes at us because of Ou Jingyi's words. I wanted to find a hole in the ground to hide in, so I coldly said to Lin Qian and Ou Jingyi, "Two distinguished alumni, please follow me. Where do you want to start visiting?"

"Hmph, although I haven't graduated yet, there are a few students in the B University's design department who can work in the Euro Group's design department. I really don't know what's so superior about you, it's just that it was Ciaran who sent you in. Zhou Xinyao, you look very high and mighty, but what's the difference between you and me?"

I suppressed my anger and didn't want to argue with Ou Jingyi. I replied without turning my head, "I have no comparison to you. Don't keep staring at me everyday." Ou Jingyi didn't hide anything in front of Lin Qian, "Hmph, if it wasn't for you pestering Jia Rui everyday, who the hell would have a lesson with you?"

"Yes, senior is right." I walked in front, leading the two of them aimlessly around the campus, Ou Jingyi in her ten centimeters high heels, not feeling tired even as she walked behind. I mischievously led them back and forth between the school treetops or the gravel paths on the lawn.

Lin Qian seemed to have noticed my prank, but he didn't remind Ou Jingyi. On the contrary, he seemed to be trying his best to restrain his smile.

Although Ou Jingyi's EQ and IQ weren't high, she wasn't a fool. When the third time, I chose a uneven stone path instead of taking the asphalt road, Ou Jingyi who had been forcing herself not to give in finally opened her mouth and said, "Zhou Xinyao, you're purposely playing with me, right?"

I pretended to be innocent as I replied, "Miss Ou, I've already poured the water for you. You let me accompany you everywhere, and I've also brought you here, so why are you still thinking about me? We volunteers are also very busy. Many of them are outstanding alumni who have successfully completed their graduation certificate."

My unkind attitude towards Ou Jingyi not being able to graduate was never due to my conceit. Even as a B University student, I didn't feel like I was above her. On the contrary, it was due to my conceit, as other than this, it was really difficult for me to find a place to contend with Ou Jingyi.

"You clearly saw that I'm wearing these kinds of shoes, yet you still insist on taking these difficult paths." Ou Jingyi rolled her eyes.

My expression and tone became even more innocent. "But didn't you come to school to look for memories of your youth? These paths are so memorable."

"You!" Even if she gnashed her teeth, she didn't think of any way to refute me.

After all, it wasn't good for either of us to annoy Ou Jingyi at such an occasion. Leaving the gravel road, I started to choose the smooth and open path as much as possible.

Unknowingly, she arrived in front of the school building located in the deepest part of B University. After walking for so long and drinking water and asking to go to the bathroom, she took the bag that hung on her shoulder and handed it to me. "Help me with it."

I stood there, unmoving, and didn't take Ou Jingyi's bag, "Miss Ou, this matter seems to have gone beyond my responsibility. You can hand it over to your 24-year old husband." I slanted my eyes at Lin Qian, but he unexpectedly showed a somewhat guilty expression. The scene I saw at the entrance of the restaurant replayed itself in my mind.

That was why everything in the world was a cycle of karma and retribution. I thought that Ou Jingyi, who broke my love apart, had become the winner in my life. However, I didn't know that letting a man like Lin Qian die in one fell swoop would be even harder than ascending to heaven.

"Forget it, Jingjing, I'll get it for you. Hurry up and go." Lin Qian, who had always been silent, suddenly spoke out to smooth things over.

"Hmph, I'll let her take it." Miss Ou Jingyi's temper flared up. "Zhou Xinyao, are you going to take it or not?"

Looking at the provocative look in Ou Jingyi's eyes, I started to think about whether I should slap her arrogant face while there were fewer people here. This crazy and violent thought started to grow in my heart. After all, Ou Jingyi and I had accumulated quite a bit of hatred between us.

A clear and dignified voice suddenly came from not too far away, "Not taking."

I turned around. It was Ou Jia Rui who was walking towards me. His gaze enveloped me, as if he was looking at a rare treasure. I was somewhat flattered.

Seeing Ou Jia Rui, Ou Jingyi had long forgotten about making things difficult for me. She subconsciously tidied up her hair, and without caring about the pain in her feet, she sprinted over and hugged Ou Jia Rui's arm. "Jia Rui, you came too. I was just looking for you."

Although Lin Qian did not dare to have any temper towards his wife, seeing his close legal relationship with his father, who was not related to him in name, would probably make a normal man unhappy. Moreover, this man was much more outstanding than him in any aspect.

Lin Qian's expression instantly turned sour, but he maintained his embarrassed yet courteous smile. After all, he couldn't afford to offend any of the people in front of him. "Hello, Director Ou. Hello, Director Zhao."

Only then did Ou Jingyi react, "So big brother Yu Hao is also here. I haven't seen you for a long time, what have you been busy with recently?" Hearing the tone of his voice, I thought that the two of them were rather familiar with each other. I looked at Zhao Yuhao with a complex expression. He somewhat awkwardly rubbed his nose.

These words' big brother Yuhao 'caused everyone present to feel extremely embarrassed. Zhao Yuhao could only smilingly say, "Hello, Miss Ou."

"You don't even know, Jia Rui. Zhou Xinyao just toyed with me. She knew clearly that I was in pain even when I was wearing high heels, but she still took me along those uneven paths. My feet are going to burst into blisters soon." The second thing I said upon meeting her was to report my confession. I had already gotten used to Ou Jingyi's accusation of being the first to report her wrongdoings. I nearly rolled my eyes as I stood by the side.

Ou Jia Rui calmly pulled out her arm, walked in front of me, and rubbed her smooth forehead. "How disobedient. Didn't you just wait for me at the same place? Did you have to come and find me? You missed me so much?" I felt a chill in my heart at those words.

Although Ou Jia Rui was very gentle, he would definitely not be so gentle and gentle like himself. I understood that he was helping me fight back against Ou Jingyi.

"Miss Ou wanted to walk around the campus and relive her memories of youth, so she insisted on taking me as her companion. So I came over." After I said this in a spoiled tone, everyone's expression slightly changed.

"Since everyone is here, we might as well have dinner together tonight. Yaoyao and I haven't eaten with so many people for a long time." When Ou Jia Rui said those words, her eyes never left me for a moment. It was as if she was just air. Ever since my miscarriage, his relationship with Ou Jingyi had become a lot more distant.

Since Ou Jia Rui had already said so, no one had the face to refuse.

The group first walked to the school's central auditorium to participate in the celebration. Ojairi held my hand tightly throughout the entire celebration. I could feel the mixture of jealousy and resentment in Ou Jingyi's eyes that almost made two holes in my back, but she had also learned to ignore them.

"You must be tired from being busy all day, do you want me to buy you something to eat first?"

"No need, I'm not hungry yet." What I said wasn't polite at all. I ate well in the afternoon, and I don't feel hungry yet.

Whether it was a large singing and dancing program, a stage show, or a speech by a representative of a well-known alumni, all of us felt as if we were in the spring of spring. We were all immersed in this kind of literary and artistic atmosphere.

Only Ou Jingyi, who was sitting next to me, was not in the mood to watch this celebration.

Zhao Yuhao sat between me and Ou Jia Rui as well as Ou Jingyi and Lin Qian. Like this, Ou Jingyi and I were separated by three people. This kind of position could be said to be very ingenious.

After the celebration ended, the five of us drove three cars in succession to the western dining room of the Michelin three-star chef that O'Jia Rui and I had already visited many times.

With Ou Jia Rui around, even though she was very dissatisfied with me, she didn't dare show it. She could only keep glaring at Lin Qian to vent her anger.

The meal soon arrived. O'Jia Rui cut the steak in front of her evenly into small pieces that were convenient to eat. Then she naturally changed her plate and mine, and Ou Jingyi, who was sitting across from me, looked at me fiercely.

"Thank you." I sweetly smiled at Ou Jia Rui, and unintentionally pierced the heart of Zhao Yuhao, who hadn't said anything for a long time.

Suddenly, a voice came from the next table, it seemed to be a young couple. The lady said with a broken heart, "Tell me, why do you want to be with that woman, is it only because she's younger and prettier? Back then, you said that no matter how old I am, you would always love me."

The man's apology revealed his impatience, "Xiao Meng's family can inject capital into my company and help me to start a business as soon as possible. She gave me everything you can't give her. Sorry, I will give you a generous breakup fee as compensation."

I secretly sighed in my heart, what other vows could I possibly believe in this year?

The two of them were so loud that it affected the other customers, so they were quickly invited out by the waiter.

When no one paid any more attention to that matter, Ou Jingyi suddenly said, "This kind of woman is really boring. I don't have the ability to look after a man, but I still have to blame someone else."
