Chapter 87 - 086: Conflict (Fifth Update)
Liu Rui has always been someone who speaks little and is shy. She felt that Zhao Guodong was here to stir trouble between the Ye family mother and daughter. Now seeing Zhao Guodong glare at her, her eyes reddened, and she started crying.
Zhao Guodong had never seen this before, "Hey, why do you start crying at the drop of a hat? I wasn’t even talking about you. It’s like I bullied you."
"Zhao Guodong, if you didn’t bully Liu Rui, then who did? We were all here watching you. Are you even a guy? Daring to do things but not daring to admit them." Song Mei stood up for Liu Rui.
"Why are you always everywhere? Shoo, shoo, go away." Zhao Guodong snapped, feeling unwell, "You’re always causing trouble every day."
Then he turned to Liu Rui, "Don’t cry, speak clearly. So many people are watching. Tell me how I bullied you, explain it clearly so I’m not wrongly accused. Was anything wrong with what I said? A mother apologizes to her daughter; can’t that happen at home? Things weren’t made clear, and now it seems like Ye Ling is really cruel. Isn’t that the case? Look at the way people passing by are looking at Ye Ling."
Zhao Guodong looked helpless, "You can’t win an argument and start crying, it really disgraces the compound."
As soon as he finished his words, Liu Rui covered her face and ran away crying.
Song Mei pointed at Zhao Guodong, "Bullying girls is what really brings disgrace."
She said this and turned to chase after Liu Rui.
Jiang Yan and Gao Tian didn’t dare provoke Zhao Guodong either, and they followed Song Mei. Zhao Guodong still looked puzzled, "Tell me where I was wrong? Did I really bully someone?"
Zhang Linong shook his head, but indeed, he hadn’t bullied anyone. However, Liu Rui was famously shy and timid within the compound. She had gathered her courage to say something, but after Zhao Guodong rebutted her and with his glare, it was no wonder she cried.
Originally it was just a small matter, something not held in anyone’s heart. But this scene was coincidentally seen by Sun Mingjie from high school. Sun Mingjie also belonged to the compound; he was part of Liu Zhiyuan’s circle. After returning to class, Sun Mingjie relayed this incident to Liu Zhiyuan.
