Chapter 248: Switch sides

"I miss Jingye, gege…" Tian Ruyi cried. "I… I heard from your mom that… he was punished…" 

Bai Zichen sighed. He stood up from his seat and walked round his table to go to her side. He placed his hands on her shoulders from behind. "Xiao Ruyi, he deserves that after what he did. Don't you feel betrayed by him? He chooses that Lu slut instead of you."

Tian Ruyi remained silent with her head hanging low.

"Forget him, Xiao Ruyi… I'm here for you." He went and stood in front of her. "Stop thinking about him."

This was their chance. Bai Zichen was a known womanizer so it wouldn't be a surprise if he tried to hit on the woman in front of him.

"Gege!" She stood up and pounced in his arms. She buried her face on the crook of his neck and sobbed. 

"He'll only hurt you." He gently pressed his lips against her temple.
