Chapter 357: This Time I Choose Dignity
After saying this, Ye Liang Chen felt his foggy mind gradually clear up.
When he saw Dragon Brother tilt his head to take a sip of water and then spray it all over him, he was just about to shout a warning.
But the next second, his throat convulsed and he accidentally swallowed.
Immediately, he struggled to roll over and vomit on the ground.
Having no idea whether Li Qing Xue was at the academy or not, Ye Liang Chen had been waiting at the entrance of A University since early morning, making Xue Shao Hua wait on his way back to the academy.
As a result, he hadn’t eaten anything substantial and had all but dried up his saliva, leaving his stomach empty.
Clenching his fists, he glared at Dragon Brother, feeling murderous intent rise within him. How could this pure and innocent body be tainted by him?
But then, Dragon Brother’s next comment made his face turn thundercloud-black.
Dragon Brother said very seriously, “You should see a traditional Chinese doctor. You’re too weak.”
Ye Liang Chen clenched his teeth. While he often rewarded himself, the word “weak” was something no man could accept!
He glanced over at Hu Yu Ying and Li Qing Xue beside Dragon Brother and felt like he’d just been deeply insulted!
A tear of regret slowly rolled down the corner of his eye.
“He’s crying,” Hu Yu Ying whispered.
“Seriously,” Li Qing Xue remarked, having seen it too.
Dragon Brother awkwardly scratched his head, “Um, did I go a bit too hard?”
With his frequent training, Dragon Brother was much stronger than the average student, so he hadn’t actually used too much strength…
To Ye Liang Chen, their back-and-forth was just another way of trampling his pride into the ground!
Struggling to rise from the ground, he looked past Dragon Brother at Li Qing Xue: “We’ve known each other for ten years, ten years! You won’t let me redeem you and trample my sincerity. This time, I’ll choose dignity!”
Then he shifted his gaze to Hu Yu Ying: “I’ve helped you countless times in my heart! I wanted to redeem you so many times, ha! This time, I too choose dignity!”
Lastly, he set his sights on Dragon Brother: “Dragon Brother, you’ve humiliated me countless times, and one day I will repay you a thousandfold!”
With that, he clenched his fists and let out a furious roar toward the sky!
The seed of darkness sprouted with that rage-filled roar, breaking through the flesh, nourished by bl**d, growing into a towering tree.
The last remaining shred of kindness withered away at that moment.
Hu Yu Ying, Li Qing Xue, you two had repeatedly made me embarrassed.
Even in my confrontation with Dragon Brother, you went out of your way to support him.
Then don’t blame me for throwing courtesy out the window!
Once I succeed in making Dragon Brother carry the title of being a major j*rk,
Once you suddenly wake up one day,
Once you remember my kindness and realize my good intentions, turning back to me!
I’ll be the first to ignore you.
Ignoring you is definitely not as simple as being cold and indifferent.
The “hubby chasing crematorium” is definitely more than just a crematorium.
All of this is your own doing, experiencing the feeling of being ignored by me!
Heh!
Just wait and experience it!
I am who I am, the brave and passionate Ye Liang Chen.
This time, I absolutely will not soften my heart!
Thinking this, he swept his gaze over the three of them, shoved his hands into his pockets with indifference, flicked his hair, and turned to leave!
The whole process was so brisk and decisive, without a hint of hesitation!
As Ye Liang Chen walked away, Dragon Brother watched his retreating figure and asked, “What did he mean by redemption?”
Hu Yu Ying and Li Qing Xue exchanged confused looks, shaking their heads. They truly had no idea why Ye Liang Chen wanted to redeem them.
Hu Yu Ying had a vague memory that his so-called redemption meant following him. Only by following him could her life become almost perfect, reaching heights she never dared to imagine.
Of course, Hu Yu Ying wouldn’t dare to tell Dragon Brother that.
Wasn’t that just treating someone as a fool? What magic did Ye Liang Chen possess that made her life perfect just by following him?
She was quite satisfied with her current life.
She had her beloved Dragon Brother, opened an online store, and earned money she had never dared to hope for before.
This was the life she chose, and she savored both the good and the bad equally.
Only Dragon Brother felt it was odd.
His presence had indirectly changed Hu Yu Ying’s life, yet Ye Liang Chen used the term “redemption”!
The original plot of the novel revolved around the male protagonist Ye Liang Chen redeeming the three little ones…
If Hu Yu Ying could break free from the original life script due to Dragon Brother’s arrival,
Then what about Ye Liang Chen…?
As he pondered this, Dragon Brother’s frown deepened!
But this was the point that puzzled him most. If Ye Liang Chen had also broken free from the original script of his life, he should have already skyrocketed to the pinnacle of life.
How did he end up in this situation?
Flipping his hair, fidgeting with his ear studs, it… felt a bit hasty and indescribable…
“Dragon Brother, what are you thinking about?” Hu Yu Ying, standing on her tiptoes, gently smoothed out his frown with her finger.
“Dragon Brother, you’re only here to help me. If Ye Liang Chen dares to target you, I won’t let him off,” Li Qing Xue said firmly. If it weren’t for Dragon Brother’s help, she wouldn’t have drawn Ye Liang Chen’s ire.
Dragon Brother shook his head slowly, “It’s fine. Just avoid him if you see him in the future. If he tries to bother you again, don’t engage. Call me, and I’ll deal with it.”
His gaze fixed on Little Girl: “Especially you, don’t have any contact with him. Just tell Dragon Brother, I guarantee I’ll be by your side in no time, no matter what I’m doing.”
Regardless of whether Ye Liang Chen had jumped out of his original life script, Hu Yu Ying was already his; after all they’d been through, they had finally come together, and Dragon Brother realized that he couldn’t live without her.
No one could take Little Girl away from him, not even the male protagonist!
At worst, he’d just throw himself into it; what’s wrong with being labeled as the evil male supporting character?
In reality, Dragon Brother was worrying for nothing. The three little ones hardly cared about Ye Liang Chen’s so-called redemption.
Out of Dragon Brother’s sight, the three little ones had already ruthlessly rejected Ye Liang Chen countless times.
But Ye Liang Chen always acted as if he couldn’t understand what they were saying, endlessly pestering them.
Seeing Dragon Brother’s anxious expression, Hu Yu Ying felt that he was worried she would end up getting harassed by Ye Liang Chen like Li Qing Xue.
So, she secretly hooked her pinky finger with Dragon Brother’s: “Don’t worry, Dragon Brother, I’ll take care of myself. If worse comes to worst, I’ll call the police. Besides, I have you!”
Watching the concern in Dragon Brother’s eyes for Hu Yu Ying, Li Qing Xue felt envious; she too wanted to be cared for and worried about…
“And you, just now when Ye Liang Chen was pulling at you in front of everyone, why didn’t you call for help?”
Li Qing Xue felt a little wronged about this; she hadn’t even had a chance to call for help before he was kicked away.
But hearing this also made Li Qing Xue a bit happy—he was worried about her…
