Don't think of rebirth.

Chapter 573: Good memory

After the morning class, Gu Qinghuan and Ai Ning went to the front of the teaching building to meet up with He Meng, Duan Xishi, and Yan Changming, and happily went to the third floor of the cafeteria.

There were five of them in the group, and it looked quite lively.

Gu Qinghuan, as the only person present who had been to the third floor of the cafeteria, walked in front to lead the way, followed by the host Yan Changming.

Duan Xishi seemed to be intentionally avoiding He Meng, so he walked side by side with Yan Changming.

Ai Ning and He Meng became the two people at the end of the team, and they were chatting quite harmoniously.

Knowing that He Meng had seen his form and only did not fill it out because she "forgot", Ai Ning felt much more at ease - as long as she didn't ignore him.

As for He Meng's mentality, it's more natural: I've already admitted it, so what's there to care about? Since their way of getting along for so many years is no different from that of a couple, now it's just breaking that layer of window paper.

She and Ai Ning should get along with each other the way they want, as long as she is happy!

Gu Qinghuan looked back twice during the journey, mainly to confirm that no one was left behind. Seeing that the four of them were quite harmonious, he felt that this mission was really easy.

When they arrived at the third floor of the cafeteria, the waiter welcomed the five people into a private room and brought them menus for them to order.

Yan Changming was rich and generous, ready to wave his hand: "All the dishes -"

"If you can't finish it, do you want to pack it up and take it away? Take the take-out box back to class?" Duan Xishi glared at him immediately.

Although the Duan family was not poor, Duan Xishi was strictly disciplined since childhood. If he was picky about food or wasted food, he would be scolded by his mother, so he was very sensitive to such behavior.

Yan Changming's neck shrank. He could understand what He Meng said before. The girls in Mingde were so fierce!

Five people ordered a few simple dishes, two of which were ordered according to the number of people, so there would be no waste.

Before the dishes were served, Gu Qinghuan acted as the host. He cleared his throat and said, "Today's meal is mainly for Yan Changming and Duan Xishi. They want to apologize to He Meng. Is that right?"

Yan Changming nodded vigorously. Duan Xishi hesitated for a moment and said with a stiff upper lip: "I will not only apologize to He Meng, but also to Ai Ning."

Ai Ning looked puzzled. What was the relationship between him and Duan Xishi? He didn't even know Duan Xishi before today.

Gu Qinghuan thought of Yan Changming's "submission on behalf of others" and vaguely guessed something. She continued to host: "So, who will speak first, you two?"

"Let me go first." Duan Xishi gritted her teeth. If she hadn't gone to find Yan Changming, Yan Changming wouldn't have posted on the confession wall. It was necessary for her to explain first.

"I..." She looked up at He Meng, then quickly lowered her head, "I was jealous, so after I learned about Yan Changming's existence, I went to him and tried to bring He Meng and him together."

"What?!" Ai Ning blurted out. What on earth was he thinking?

After hearing this, Duan Xishi's nerves immediately tensed up, and his speech speed increased a lot, "It's my fault, I thought He Meng mentioned Yan Changming's affairs because she wanted to show off to others that she had someone pursuing her."

"I have never been able to compare with her. I envy her for having such a good childhood sweetheart. Her grades are better than mine, and her family is also..."

Thinking of "family", she pinched her palm again, and then continued: "I think that if He Meng and Yan Changming are dating, they will be affected by the relationship and will no longer be so outstanding."

Gu Qinghuan touched his chin. People always envy what they don’t have. Judging from Duan Xishi’s remarks, she seemed to lack normal or positive interpersonal relationships?

Whether it is friendship, family, or love, she should be eager for someone to comfort her heart.

When she talked to Yan Changming before, Duan Xishi was able to act as if she didn't care, but now that she was talking to Ai Ning, the real owner, she felt quite embarrassed.

Unfortunately, since she had spoken, Duan Xishi would not allow herself to escape. She gritted her teeth and said, "I also told Yan Changming that I did this because I like Ai Ning and wanted to break you up."

"Ah?!" This time the person who shouted in surprise was He Meng.

Ai Ning and He Meng looked at each other and sighed at the same time.

It was a close call, I almost got caught up in a "love scandal" that I was completely unaware of.

Gu Qinghuan asked, "You have thought it through now and shouldn't have done this, so you come to apologize to He Meng and Ai Ning?"

Duan Xishi nodded and looked at Gu Qinghuan: "Thank you for your suggestions on the forum. That form is very useful. At least it lets me know that there are still people supporting me."

After saying that, Duan Xishi stood up, walked to He Meng and Ai Ning, and bowed deeply to them respectively.

She remained bent over, staring at the back of her feet, and said in a dull voice, "Although my actions did not cause much impact in practice, if it weren't for Gu Qinghuan's form, I would definitely have done something worse."

"By then, it will be irreversible and will definitely cause great harm to you."

"My sister said that I can't excuse myself just because it didn't happen. If I let myself get away with it, I'll ruin myself sooner or later. So, I have to apologize for my behavior this time."

"I know my behavior was excessive, and it's normal that you don't forgive me. I..."

He Meng suddenly interrupted her: "Will you do this again in the future?"

Duan Xishi subconsciously raised his head, met He Meng's gaze, and shook his head vigorously: "No."

"That's fine!" He Meng waved her hand generously, "I think you can correct your mistakes and admit your feelings to us frankly. Your attitude is very sincere. I am willing to accept your apology, so I forgive you!"

Ai Ning thought for a few seconds and said, "My thoughts are similar to He Meng's. As long as you can recognize your mistakes and don't make them again, I am willing to forgive you."

Originally, he was not affected much. He was more worried about He Meng than himself.

Now that Yan Changming has no intention of pestering He Meng, Duan Xishi can't do anything on his own, so there is no need to worry.

Duan Xishi looked at the two of them and his nose suddenly felt sore.

Although she realized how despicable her behavior was after talking with Duan Shaoguang, the feeling was different when she actually received forgiveness from the two of them.

She nodded solemnly: "I will never make this mistake again!"

Gu Qinghuan came over, took Duan Xishi's arm, and sent her back to her seat: "Okay, it's a good thing that we can talk it out."

Just at this moment, the waiter came with the food cart, and taking advantage of this opportunity, several people calmed down.

After the waiter left, Yan Changming couldn't wait to speak: "Before I apologize, I want to say, uh, what's your name?"

He turned his gaze to Gu Qinghuan and asked quite sincerely.

"Gu Qinghuan!" Ai Ning, He Meng and Duan Xishi said in unison.

Yan Changming said "Oh" and raised his glass towards Gu Qinghuan - it was filled with grape sparkling water.

He said: "Thank you Gu Qinghuan for your form. It made me realize how much I relied on my family in the past and how much trouble I caused them."

"My relatives all said they wanted to express their gratitude to you. I had planned to deal with He Meng's matter before looking for you. Now that we've met, I want to thank you first."

Although Gu Qinghuan was a little curious, the focus of today's conversation was on He Meng, so she just raised her lychee ice brew and clinked glasses with him to accept his thanks.

Yan Changming took a sip of grape sparkling water, then quickly turned to He Meng, his tone more sincere: "I realize how much trouble my behavior has caused you, how naive, impulsive, reckless, and self-righteous I am..."

He rattled off a string of derogatory words, concluding: "These are what my family said about me."

The other four people present: This silly guy has a pretty good memory.
