The best ex-lover is a deceased ex-lover…

These words lingered in Huo Tian’s mind. Although it sounded a little scary, it seemed to make a lot of sense.

Bi Ying and Huo Tian walked to the school gate. Zhao Feng, who was on duty today, was about to greet them when Huo Tian suddenly slapped her forehead.

Zhao Feng’s hand froze in midair as he looked at Bi Ying strangely. “What’s wrong with her? Is she sick and having a headache?”

Bi Ying didn’t know what was wrong with Huo Tian either. He shook his head to show that he didn’t understand Huo Tian’s actions either.

Both of them looked at Huo Tian together. Zhao Feng asked again, “Huo Tian, were you feeling unwell just now, so you slapped your head?”

Bi Ying thought of something else. “What idea did you come up with again? Are you going straight to the laboratory or are you going to the classroom to take a rest first?”

Huo Tian said, “It’s not that I feel unwell or that I just had a flash of inspiration. I just felt that I had almost been brainwashed by Uncle and almost followed his thoughts, thinking that it’d be good if my father was dead. Sigh, Uncle can always influence other people’s thoughts. No wonder he’s so adapted to his current job.”

Bi Ying was speechless. “So you’ve been thinking about what Uncle Ding said?”

Zhao Feng was curious. “What did he say? To think that he almost led a genius like Huo Tian off-track…”

Huo Tian said, “My uncle said that the best ex-lover is a deceased ex-lover. I didn’t think there’s anything wrong with that, but at the same time, felt that there was something wrong with it…”

Zhao Feng blurted out, “What? You and Si Huan actually progressed so fast? He’s already your ex-boyfriend? You’re not really thinking of laying your hands on him, are you?”

As soon as he finished his words, several people nearby looked over. Zhao Feng, who had said the wrong thing, covered his mouth in frustration. Bi Ying, who was at the side, had complicated feelings. He lowered his gaze slightly to hide the emotions in his eyes.

As the center of everyone’s attention, Huo Tian’s reaction was beyond everyone’s expectations. She was first stunned, then she laughed. “You’re mistaken. What has an ex-boyfriend got to do with Si Huan? Moreover, Uncle was talking about my father. He’s been cursing for my father to die sooner.”

Zhao Feng pulled an awkward smile. “Is, is that so? It’s all my fault, I’m sorry.”

Huo Tian smiled without any upset feelings. “It’s alright. We’re friends now too.”

Zhao Feng didn’t know if he should be flattered or not. His expression became a little distorted for a moment, mixed with joy as well as the feelings of having suffered a blow. “Thank you. It’s almost been a semester and I’ve finally escalated from being a stranger to a friend.”

“You’re welcome.” Huo Tian accepted Zhao Feng’s thanks without feeling awkward at all and added, “Although your intelligence troubles me a little, I really treat you as a friend.”

Zhao Feng’s expression became even more distorted. He gritted his teeth and said word by word, “That’s really my honor!”

Bi Ying couldn’t bear to let Huo Tian continue to attack other people’s hearts and quickly pulled her away.

Even though he knew that he wasn’t good at handling interpersonal relationships, he still had to impart some experience to Huo Tian. “In the future, try not to take the initiative to show kindness to others.”

Huo Tian was puzzled. “But back then, I took the initiative to show my kindness and approach you. That’s how the two of us became friends. Otherwise, you might have gone to destroy the world…”

Towards the end, Huo Tian deliberately lowered her voice, almost talking to herself, so Bi Ying didn’t hear what she said clearly and didn’t pay much attention to it.

He was concerned about the first half of the sentence and couldn’t help but complain about this. “When we first met, I thought you were trying to swindle money. I didn’t feel your kindness at all, okay?”

Huo Tian stomped her feet in exasperation and said, “That’s because you were thinking too much. How could I be trying to swindle your money?”

Si Huan happened to come to look for them and was pulled by Huo Tian. Huo Tian asked Si Huan, “Si Huan, come and explain things to Bi Ying. There’s nothing wrong with my method of making friends, right? Back then, when we first met, you sent me home.. You have wanted to be friends with me since then, right?”
