Chapter 236 I Love Her More Than You Think
"Yu Huan, Bai Zhu, the two of you come over here." Ren Jing had no choice but to interrupt the rehearsal and let the remaining two continue, while he called the two younger ones to leave.
"If you have a conflict, don't show it in front of the camera." Ren Jing said earnestly, "The eyes of netizens are very sharp. Even I can see that you two are not getting along with each other."
She is the captain and is responsible for the entire team. The two of them have conflicts, but the others want to win.
These two seemed to have a good relationship some time ago, but for some reason, they have been acting weird and awkward lately.
"Sorry, Sister Jing, can you give us ten minutes?" While Shu Baizhu was silent, Qin Yuhuan came out to apologize.
Ren Jing nodded, "Even if the conflict cannot be resolved, at least act it out. We are all acting. I don't need to tell you how to act in front of the camera."
Saying these things is already crossing the line, and if it weren't for Ziyu's face, she wouldn't bother to mention it.
After Ren Jing left, only Qin Yuhuan and Shu Baizhu were left in the empty corridor.
Qin Yuhuan was serious. He looked around and confirmed that there was no one around before he spoke, "Do you want to withdraw from the competition? If so, you can just say so."
This makes it seem like she is bullying someone.
"It's none of your business," Shu Baizhu leaned against the door in the hallway and sighed, "It's my family. They've been thinking about me contacting Ziyi recently."
"So?" Qin Yuhuan didn't understand Shu Baizhu's train of thought, "What does this have to do with us?"
It was obvious that Shu Baizhu was avoiding her intentionally or unintentionally.
"I don't know, Yu Huan." Shu Baizhu couldn't sort out his thoughts. "Maybe it's because of your relationship with Ziyi. I don't want my family to find out that we have a good relationship."
Qin Yuhuan: ...
"Then you may have some misunderstanding. Our relationship should be just ordinary, a gentleman's friendship." Maybe now it can't even be called a gentleman's friendship, after all, she always wants to put a sack on people, "ordinary colleagues."
Or they are just ordinary colleagues with a vague sense of competition for resources.
Shu Baizhu: ...
"You're always so straightforward."
"I just think that sometimes people need to be open-mouthed, do whatever they want to do, and say whatever they want to say. Not everyone can understand your duplicity." Qin Yuhuan finished speaking, and felt that he was too polite, so he added more bluntly, "Most people can't understand, and not everyone can get a second chance."
"Yes," Shu Baizhu smiled bitterly, "Xiaozi got a second chance, and you got it because of her, and I..."
"You think Ziyi got a second chance because she changed," Qin Yuhuan was furious when he thought of the hardships Ziyi had suffered. "I got this opportunity because I cherish it and I am good enough. What about you, Shu Baizhu?"
"Ask yourself, have you ever cherished her? Ziyi has been chasing you since she was sixteen, and she didn't meet me until she was twenty-five. In ten years, have you ever been honest with her? You used a tube of burn ointment and a bowl of powder to keep her for ten years. Isn't that enough?"
It's not just ten years. In her last life, Ziyi was trapped for her entire life.
"I've paid more than just a tube of burn ointment and a bowl of powder!" Shu Baizhu's suppressed emotions finally broke out at this moment. "My family has had a driver to take me to and from school since I was a child. For her, I took the bus every day for three years in high school, just to walk that extra distance with her. My brother asked me why I didn't get on the family car after Ziyi got on the bus."
The roads home go in two directions, one south and one north.
Even if Shu Baizhu did this, Ziyi would not know.
"When I was standing on the bus, I could imagine what she looked like when she was riding the bus, standing or sitting, smiling or with a cold face. Our academic performance was not good, and we had decided to take the art exam a long time ago. I knew Ziyi was going to apply to Jin University, and I gave up art classes for a while. During that time, I attended many cram schools, went to bed at two o'clock, and got up at five o'clock, hoping to catch up with her in academic performance."
But later, the results of the monthly examination slapped her in the face. Her academic performance was neither good nor good. If she took the ordinary college entrance examination, even with 20 points for ethnicity, she would still be hovering around the undergraduate line. If she was not careful, she would not even be able to study for a bachelor's degree.
Shu Baizhu covered her face and squatted on the spot, tears streaming down her fingers. "My family's financial situation is not bad, so I don't need to work. After graduating from high school, my family originally wanted to send me to learn to drive, but Ziyi wanted to work part-time in a milk tea shop. I convinced my family and went to make milk tea with her."
"I stood from eight in the morning to ten at night for two months. It's not that I didn't make any sacrifices, but my family's conditions are like this. My parents are eyeing Ziyi covetously, and all they want is to eat up Ziyi's family. Do you think I don't know that my mother always uses Ziyi's card to put it on her bill? My father and brother are doing business outside, and they all rely on Uncle Zhao's face. What can I do?"
"I have been the most obedient daughter in my family since I was young. For my own sake, I have quarreled with my family again and again. Tell me, do I have any other options? I know that most of the resources in my family belong to Shu Baiqi and Shu Baizhen, but so what? They have been very good to me, and I cannot abandon them."
Her parents never said no when it came to food, clothing, and various expenses for her art studies. They gave her almost anything she wanted. She could buy paints worth thousands or tens of thousands at will, and she could attend interest classes worth hundreds of thousands if she wanted.
"I like Ziyi. I love her more than you can imagine. She has given me a lot and I want to protect her, but my family only schemes against her. I am also in pain. Why are my family members like this? Why am I so mediocre and incompetent?"
Shu Baizhu believed that she had done everything she could. "You got Ziyi, and the happiness I wanted most. What qualifications do you have to blame me? I have already... I have tried my best. No matter how unwilling I am to accept it, I can only tell myself that I am just an ordinary person, an ordinary person who has a dilemma."
Qin Yuhuan took a deep breath, squatted down, and patted Shu Baizhu on the back, "Sorry, I took my anger out on you."
Shu Baizhu cried so hard, "I'm already keeping my distance, do you think this is easy?"
"Well," Qin Yuhuan sighed silently, "I was wrong."
Shu Baizhu just lowered his head, looked at the rough concrete floor, and murmured: "If you were me, what would you do?"
"I will find a way to get all the family property." Qin Yuhuan replied, "I will tell Ziyi everything and use Ziyi to suppress the two brothers in the family so that they can only rely on me."
This is a path Shu Baizhu has never thought of, "But..."
"If they want what Ziyi has, don't blame me for taking advantage of their desires."
