He laughed, “You did try to hide it, but unfortunately, you were using the hotel’s WiFi.”
Lin Qiao: “…”
She had planned everything perfectly, but she never expected to be tripped up by that little bit of data usage. She should have known better than to be so careful with her data usage.
Lin Qiao was filled with regret when she suddenly remembered that she had sent the email to Su Zhengxing. Now that even Qin Shen knew about it, wouldn’t Su Zhengxing be…
Seeing that Lin Qiao had finally come to her senses, Qin Shen revealed the real reason he had come to see her today.
He said loudly, “You helped Baitian avoid such a huge risk and indirectly helped so many innocent victims. I shouldn’t doubt you, but looking back at what you did at Baitian, some things are truly hard to explain. I can be unaware of your unspeakable difficulties, but what about Su Zhengxing? Shouldn’t you at least be more honest with him?”
“Perhaps some things shouldn’t be said by me, but he really cares about you and truly wants to be with you.”
Even though they are not related by blood, Su Zhengxing is still family to Qin Shen; he is the brother he cherishes.
Lin Qiao then realized that Su Zhengxing had known from the beginning that she had sent the email, but he hadn’t said or asked anything during this time, pretending to know nothing and helping her keep the lie.
Her nose stung uncontrollably, and her eyes welled up. She suddenly remembered a saying: Sometimes you can deceive others not because your deception is so skillful, but because their trust gives you the opportunity.
Suddenly, she had so much to say to him.
After parting ways with Qin Shen, Lin Qiao dialed Su Zhengxing’s number.
“I…want to see you.”
…
It seems there’s some kind of event going on at Tsinghua University today; the campus is bustling with people.
Groups of students on bicycles passed by, the wind brushing against their cheeks, their hair blowing backward, and the hair on their foreheads being blown askew.
The swaying shadows of the trees were reflected in the gently rippling blue pond. Pink peach blossoms filled the trees along the edge, and magnolia petals fell onto the grass, releasing a delicate fragrance.
Lin Qiao stopped by the white stone arch bridge in front of the Department of Economics and Management, leaning slightly against the smooth, white stone pillar, standing quietly with her hands at her sides.
Su Zhengxing happened to have something to do at Tsinghua University today. He had planned to go to the neighboring Normal University to have lunch with her after that, but Lin Qiao called him in advance, so he asked her to wait by the bridge for a while.
After standing there for a short while, the meeting in the administration building of the Department of Economics and Management seemed to have ended, and many professors and teachers came out one after another.
Lin Qiao spotted Su Zhengxing in the distance, dressed in a gray suit with his hair neatly combed, and smiled at him.
“Why didn’t you wait for me to come find you?”
Su Zhengxing walked over quickly, carrying a briefcase, and naturally and affectionately picked up a peach blossom petal that was stuck in her hair.
Just as Lin Qiao was about to answer, she saw an elderly man with silver hair walking up behind her, smiling at them.
“Xiao Su, is this your girlfriend?”
Although the old man was over seventy years old and his hair was all white, he was in good spirits and looked very energetic.
