Stop Messing Around, Mr Bo!

Chapter 1878: Stubborn and Arrogant

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although they had seen through too much, they had yet to see through a seven-year-old child who had just lost her parents.

Including the other children in the orphanage.

They all thought so.

But it was still different.

She always sat alone in a corner, quiet and obedient in class. It was the same after class. She sat there and watched her friends play games happily. Most of the time, she was expressionless.

Her heart was calm like a pool of stagnant water.

Perhaps he felt that she was very similar to them, or he couldn’t bear to. Or perhaps he was just curious about her.

In a sense, there was only one more person in Chu Boyang’s childhood.

From then until now…

Ji Qing had lived her entire life.

In their interactions, Ji Qing was an innocent and innocent girl. Her words were soft and gentle, and she was serious and sincere when she looked at others. In the years that followed, she had not changed at all. She was gentle and weak, but she was brave and stubborn.

On the surface, she looked like a weak girl who needed protection at all times. Yet, she insisted on proving that she was strong. Not only did she not need anyone’s protection, but she could also protect others.

Such a girl was actually the most likable.

Gentle and meticulous, pure and kind, brave and stubborn.

The people around her grew day by day like her dark hair.

Oh, girls indeed had to have long hair.

Ji Fengmian was beautiful, but her personality was extremely cold.

The others wouldn’t take the initiative to approach her.

From the beginning to the end, Chu Boyan was the only one by her side.

And she didn’t feel lonely.

However, when she suddenly felt lonely, she realized that some things had already been decided.

Other than the basic courses, Chu Boyang had to learn other deeper content that far exceeded the textbooks. He didn’t have more time to accompany her like before.

Accompany?

She had never thought that Chu Boyang would be her companion.

But when did it start? It didn’t seem to be the time for Chu Boyang to be distracted.

From the time they had to sit together for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Ever since they met Chu Boyang during class, they had been sitting on the chairs beside the flowerbed.

From the time one of them dug a hole with a shovel and the other carefully placed a lily seed in the hole…

She didn’t even feel that way.

However, she found Ji Qing an eyesore.

Then, in her daily life, she would always show indifference or hostility to Ji Qing.

Everyone else in the orphanage could tell that she was gossiping secretly, but she didn’t refute her.

Because even she knew that this was the truth.

So when did it start?

Probably…

The lilies in the garden that year were especially beautiful. The two figures sitting together looked beautiful.

Then, early in the morning a few days later, she went out and found that the lilies in the garden had been ruined.

Only then did she realize that something had changed.

The lilies in the garden were colorful. It was undoubtedly an eye-catching sight in the orphanage.

Now, almost all of them had died prematurely. Not only had the petals fallen to the ground, but the leaves had also been shattered. The stems of the flowers were either broken or broken.

This kind of thing was already considered a big deal in the peaceful orphanage, and her behavior was indeed very bad.

The director investigated this matter.

It was just that her behavior was full of hostility. Once she was found, she would be taught a lesson in time to prevent her from going astray in the future.

“It’s Ji Fengmian! A few days after the sowing, I saw her standing by the flowerbed, thinking about something. Back then, she was holding a shovel.”

“I’ve seen it too. After the seedlings grew, I saw her shoveling them out of the flowerbed one morning.”

“I’ve also seen her staring at the flowerbeds recently. Her gaze is scary, just like… like when she looks at a lover.”

“She doesn’t like mistresses. All of us know that those lilies are obviously mistresses, so she must have destroyed them.”

The children kept insisting on her.

She only smiled.

She had just sown the seeds a few days ago because there was only one seed in each pit. The probability of a seedling growing was so low that it was negligible. She had only planted a few more seeds.

When the seedlings grew, the few seedlings gathered together were too dense. She removed the excess seedlings so that the remaining seedlings could grow better.

They didn’t understand this common sense and insisted that it was her. Their ignorance only made her feel even more helpless and ridiculous.

Ji Qing didn’t say anything. She squatted beside the flowerbed sadly and picked up the petals one by one. Her tears fell to the ground.

Ji Qing’s tears made her look even more displeased.

It was like a knife that had been sharpened.

However, their gazes were mixed with innocence and ignorance. There was really no need for her to care.

“I don’t like or hate Ji Qing. The motive isn’t valid. It’s not me.”

The director naturally wouldn’t convict Ji Fengmian just because of the children’s words. On the contrary, she agreed with them.

Moreover, she knew that the reason why the lilies could grow up like this was mostly because of Ji Fengmian.

The matter was temporarily dropped and the director continued to investigate. He didn’t know if he had found that person in the end and privately educated him.

Chu Boyang had never been to the “crime scene”, so he didn’t seem to care much about this matter.

It was rare for him to appear in the craft class the next afternoon.

As she was the last to appear, Ji Qing had a companion. She occupied the entire long table alone, so he naturally formed a team with her.

Ji Fengmian fiddled with the confetti in his hand. His attitude was natural.

“Rare.”

Chu Boyang placed the books on the table. At such a young age, there were books on financial management. At first, she felt a headache, but she got used to it.

She took a casual glance and said calmly, “Haven’t you read all these books…”

Chu Boyang didn’t say anything. Instead, he held the book in his hand and shook it a few times. Colorful things floated out of the book.

After reading a few books, Ji Fengmian finally saw the colorful petals of the lilies.

It was very flat and bright in color.

Her heart sank.

She raised her head to look at him. Her eyes were calm, but the corners of her lips curled up. She said casually, “I remember that Ji Qing picked up all these petals.”

Chu Boyang looked at her calmly as he stood beside the table. He wasn’t much taller than the table, but there seemed to be too much hidden in his eyes. It was as if there was a layer of frost on his face.

“You don’t seem to have much feelings for them.”

Ji Fengmian glanced at the petals and chuckled. “How do you think I should feel about them?”

Chu Boyang stared at her for a few seconds. “Indeed, Ji Qing picked them up. She cried for the entire day.”

Ji Fengmian paused and lowered his head to tear off the edge of the confetti.

“So you think I should cry too?”

“You look very happy now.”

Ji Fengmian was too used to talking to Chu Boyang.

They were the same. They would never be too straightforward, but they could easily understand what each other wanted to express.

Ji Fengmian’s heart sank. “Am I not qualified to be happy?”

She paused for a second. “You think I did all this?”

Chu Boyang raised his hand and drew a line on the petals. “Didn’t you say that there was no motive?”

Ji Fengmian froze and felt a little guilty.

Motive.

Perhaps there was, but it was dark and a little blurry.

Indeed, she didn’t like Ji Qing and those lilies were an eyesore.

Reason…

She took a deep breath and brushed the question aside.

“Yes, I have no motive. What makes you suspect me?”

Chu Boyang sneered. “Do you need a reason to torture someone you don’t like?”

Ji Fengmian laughed in anger, but that was what he meant.

Disliking her was the biggest reason.

But…

“Why do I dislike her?”

Chu Boyang looked at her for a while. “You’re asking me?”

Ji Fengmian pursed his lips. “…Even so, it’s only a matter of probability. There are many people who don’t like her. Why do you think I did it?”

Chu Boyan took out a piece of green colored paper and stuck the petals on it with glue. It was obvious that he was using those petals to piece the lilies back together.

Ji Fengmian watched coldly.

After a long time…

“In the entire orphanage, only you, Ji Fengmian, are so scheming.”

“…”

During that handicraft class, Ji Fengmian didn’t do anything. There was a pile of paper on the table.

Chu Boyang patiently pieced the petals together and gave a handful of colorful lilies to Ji Qing.

“Go back and put them in a sealed bottle. You can keep them for as long as you want.”

Although his tone was still cold, it was much gentler.

Ji Qing’s eyes sparkled with joy and gratitude.

“It’s beautiful. Thank you.”

Chu Boyan nodded, a smile on his lips.

She was too young and Ji Fengmian didn’t know why his heart ached.

Back then, she only felt aggrieved.

Chu Boyan didn’t believe her.

She was so scheming that it was impossible to guard against her.

Ha.

She was born aloof.

Since that was the case, there was no need for her to have anything to do with him.

She didn’t need such a blind person as a friend.

She was alone again.

So she had lived alone too.

But this time, she suddenly knew what loneliness was.

At this moment, Ye Jingyun suddenly appeared.

At that time, when she was being devoured by loneliness, Ye Jingyun appeared. She admitted that she was desperate.

At least someone could vent her loneliness so that she wouldn’t have to focus on those two people and make herself look pitiful.

She wasn’t that useless. She wanted to prove to him that she wasn’t useless.

Why should he?

She didn’t have to prove anything to someone who didn’t trust her, and he had no right to make her do that.

In the past, she had never disliked Ji Qing.

Later on, she didn’t hide her disgust for Ji Qing.

Everyone said that she hated Ji Qing, and she did. If she didn’t hate her, she would have let them down.

Moreover, Ji Qing had indeed messed up her life.

She had been following the lessons in school at a leisurely pace. In the past, when she was bored, she could still follow Chu Boyang to read books that exceeded her age.

Initially, she only felt that he liked her and that she was bored. She even felt that she didn’t want to be left behind by him and couldn’t keep up with him. There was no common topic between them and they would drift further apart.

Later on, she was also reading those books. Perhaps it was simply boredom or an invisible habit.

Anyway, she had persevered.

Later on, she slowly realized that it wasn’t because they had the same interests and hobbies, nor was it because they had a lot of common topics to talk about.

Back then, she only wanted to follow in Chu Boyang’s footsteps and not be left behind.

Now, she felt that humans needed to complement each other.

He might not need a partner who could advance and retreat with him.

Instead, when he was tired, the other person used her interests and hobbies to relieve his fatigue.

No one liked an unchanging life.

She was also unwilling to live such a monotonous life.

Ji Qing was gentle and obedient. She liked everything that girls should like.

And those were things that Chu Boyang would never take the initiative to touch.

To him, it was a completely new understanding. After that, he would explore and discover a common topic with Ji Qing.

She could tell from his expression that he was enjoying it.

Ji Fengmian felt even more ridiculous.

Wasn’t the current Chu Boyang the same as her back then…

In the world of those two, not one more person would do.

Ji Fengmian distanced himself from everyone.

But some people might have a natural desire to conquer.

At lunch half a month later, Chu Boyang took the initiative to sit in front of her.

Ji Fengmian glanced at him and lowered his head to eat his rice.

She would be ten years old in a few days. Ever since he knew her, her actions had always carried an indescribable elegance.

Many people said that she was pretending to be aloof, but she never cared.

She seemed to have always been like this. She was arrogant and stubborn.

What she had decided was right. No one could easily influence her thoughts.

“Are you avoiding me?” Chu Boyang casually threw a mouthful of food into his mouth.

Ji Fengmian didn’t even look up. “Why should I hide from you?”

“Then what about the past half a month?”

Ji Fengmian chewed the food in his mouth unhurriedly. He looked up with a smile.

“So I’m born to revolve around you?”
