“It’s okay, Mo Yu. I’m fine
” Fang Liu comforted as she patted Mo Yu’s back. Mo Yu’s eyes were bloodshot as if he was a demon from Hell. Fang Liu knew how frightened her husband was for her.
‘Mo Yu was so scared that he almost fainted. Just hearing about what happened was enough to make Mo Yu panic.
Fang Liu had experienced such a life-threatening situation, but when Mo Yu came over, she was the one who comforted him instead. Fang Liu felt that her mental stability had gradually improved.
Mo Yu hugged her for a long while before letting go. When Mo Yu finally calmed down from the shock he felt, he looked at Fang Liu and said, “I’m sorry, baby.”
Fang Liu was puzzled. “Why are you sorry? I’m fine, see?” Mo Yu buried his head in Fang Liu’s shoulder, and his voice carried a rare sense of helplessness. “I-I wasn’t there to protect you.”
Fang Liu knew that Mo Yu cared for her, and that’s why he felt an enormous amount of guilt and pain. Fang Liu continued to hug Mo Yu and said gently, “It was so sudden, and no one could’ve predicted it. You’re not to blame.”
“I’s a good thing I’ve always had luck on my side. The Heavens have blessed me, and the protective clothing happened to have a resistance to sulfuric acid. Please stop blaming yourself, okay? If you’re sad, then you’ll make me sad too.”
Warmth rushed through Mo Yu’s heart when he heard his wife’s words. He hugged Fang Liu tightly and said, “I’m never letting you out of my sight again.”
Fang Liu didn’t know whether to feel touched or laugh. ‘Then will he follow me into the ladies’ room too?” She thought of this but remained silent.
Although Lin Lu’s act of violence didn’t spread to the public, the university students heard about it. Even then, the university was under some pressure. Something horrible had happened at the university, and it wasn’t easy to sweep it under the rug.
Moreover, the incident involved Fang Liu, and the university’s higher-ups were well aware of Fang Liu’s true identity. They were worried that the Mo family would demand that they take responsibility for the incident.
But Fang Liu didn’t pressure the university to take responsibility for the incident. Instead, she suggested that the school pay more attention to their student’s mental health, strengthen security, and put more effort into solving the issues of bullying on campus.
After the incident, Mo Yu kept an even closer watch on Fang Liu. Sometimes, when they were asleep at home, and Fang Liu was to roll toward the edge of the bed, Mo Yu would immediately wake up and hold her in his arms before being able to go back to sleep.
After a few days, Mo Yu finally regained his composure and was no longer anxious and nervous.
Lin Lu was left for Mo Yu to handle. He heard that Lin Lu had been sentenced to several years of prison. Lin Lu was a young lady in the prime of her life, yet she would be spending the best parts of her life in jail.
But when the news of Lin Lu’s sentence spread, almost no one sympathized with her. Many of the students also made posts on social media, saying that Lin Lu finally got what she deserved.
Qin Rong was thrilled because Lin Lu had once bullied and humiliated her. Although she didn’t get the chance to punish Lin Lu personally, seeing Lin Lu end up like this made Qin Rong feel that she had vented all her frustrations.
Fang Liu was a shy person, and even after attending university for a long while, she still did not have many friends. She would only nod to people she recognized. The only person she considered to be her close friend was Qin Rong.
Qin Rong had secretly told Fang Liu that she was in a relationship, and Fang Liu was very happy for her. Qin Rong had always treated Fang Liu well. When Fang Liu was new and unfamiliar with the university’s environment, Qin Rong was the person who helped Fang Liu to adjust to the university’s
surroundings.
Fang Liu casually asked, “So, who is the lucky guy? Is he one of our classmates?” Unexpectedly, Qin Rong kept it a secret. Qin Rong only mentioned that she liked him and that he treats her very well.
Fang Liu did not take it to heart. The following day, Qin Rong texted Fang Liu and asked her, “What is your relationship with Mr. Chu?”
Fang Liu was shocked. She would usually avoid being too close to Mo Yu when they were at the university. Fang Liu wondered if Qin Rong had noticed something they did.
Then Qin Rong quickly sent another message. “Do you like Mr. Chu?”
Fang Liu felt that these were strange questions from her best friend. Fang Liu did not want to expose her relationship with Mo Yu, so she simply replied, “Why would you ask me that? You’re just overthinking it.”
Qin Rong added, “I guess that’s true. Mr. Chu is a married man after all, so it doesn’t matter if you like him or not.”
Fang Liu felt that her entire interaction with Qin Rong was strange, but she didn’t overthink it..
