Xia Zhi cut him off, "No! I don't believe that Pei Yaochen is such a person. I know him. He's always been cold and kind and would never do that. "

Xu Shang sighed, "People do anything when they are angry. And do you really know him? How do you know he wouldn't do that? "

Hearing this, Xia Zhi felt unexplainable regret, and coldly replied: "Just like how you lied to me before, I think it was still insufficient to do it once, and yet you want to deceive me a second time?"

Xia Zhi gritted her teeth, "So what if I moved, I moved. At least you have a place to stay. "You can sleep on the floor tonight. When tomorrow morning comes, I'll go to the second-hand market and buy a bed."

Before she finished speaking, a knock on the door sounded. Xia Zhi walked over to open the door, it was a fat middle-aged woman, and when she saw Xia Zhi, she immediately said impolitely: "This apartment has already been rented out, I will take care of it. Get out of here, or I'll call the police. "

Xia Zhi frowned, "Are you the landlord? "This house should be rented until the end of this month. Since it hasn't expired, you don't have the right to chase them away!"

The woman sneered, "The tenant here is Miss Melinda. She called me ten minutes ago and said that she wants to check out right now, so she specifically told me to come over to check in. "If you don't leave, we'll find the police to reason with you."

Xia Zhi turned to look at Xu Shang, who hopped over to her side and said in a low voice: "This place is indeed rented in Melinda's name, let's go!"

Xia Zhi was so angry that her entire body was trembling, she did not waste any more words, and turned to leave.

"Xia Zhi! Xia Zhi! Wait for me! Don't be angry! "Listen to my explanation!" Xu Shang chased after him with great difficulty.

Xia Zhi ran frantically down the stairs. After being blown by the cold wind, she slowly calmed down as she stopped in her tracks and waited for Xu Shang to limp closer.

Xu Shang walked in front of her, ashamed to the point of not daring to look her in the eye, he stammered: "I'm sorry. Xia Zhi, I … "

Xia Zhi raised a hand to stop him, "Don't explain anything. I don't want to hear it. And I don't think it's my business. I was wrong. I didn't get my attitude straight. It is I who should apologize to you. "

"Xia Zhi..." Xu Shang still wanted to say something.

However, Xia Zhi took out her phone and walked to the nearby street light before standing still to make a call.

Xu Shang did not walk over, and only leaned on the telegraph pole to catch his breath.

Just a moment ago, in order to chase after Xia Zhi, her right leg had no choice but to touch the ground. Now that the pain was so severe, he was a little panicked, afraid that she would suffer some sort of side effect.

Just as he was worried, Xia Zhi walked over and stood beside him.

Xu Shang hesitated a few times, but still couldn't help but say: "Xia Zhi, I won't return to Pei Yaochen's home. You won't even return if you are beaten to death! "

Xia Zhi looked at him coldly but did not say a word.

He made her both hate and ache.

Xu Shang struggled to take a step forward and wanted to hold her hand.

However, Xia Zhi quickly dodged and lightly said, "Don't worry. I won't send you back to Pei Yaochen. "

She never thought that Xu Shang would even have to pay the rent, and from the looks of it, Xu Shang had also plundered a lot of money from Melinda.

He had once again greatly refreshed her understanding of him. If not for their old friendship and the fact that he had almost lost his life to save her, she would have really wished she could never see him again.

Xu Shang looked at his empty hands with distress, and said softly: "Xia Zhi, are you angry? I'm sorry. As it turned out, I was really terrible. I shouldn't have spent my money on relationships in order to be able to stay here, so much so that I had to rely on others to pay my rent. But I know I'm wrong, and I promise I'll be honest and earn every penny on my own. "Believe me!"

Xia Zhi took a deep breath and said slowly: "You don't need to apologize to me. We're only friends right now, so you don't need to explain everything to me. How you will survive in this society is your own business. What I want to tell you is that although I don't agree with what you did in the past, I still wish you well. I hope that one day, you will have everything you desire. "

When Xu Shang heard this, he became unsettled for some unknown reason, "Xia Zhi …"
