The latest chapter is packed with exciting plot twists! Come check out Cola Novels!

For the next two days, Ding Heng spent most of his time with Hua Qing.

Although it was supposed to be accompanying someone, there was nothing particularly special going on.

I helped her pack her luggage in the morning, we had dinner together in the afternoon, and then we cuddled together to sleep in the evening. There was no further action.

Hua Qing didn't bring much back to her hometown; it could all fit in one suitcase. She also entrusted the black beans to Ding Heng for safekeeping.

Wenjing did well on her driving test, scoring 98 points with only two questions wrong.

Driving lessons are coming to an end. The instructor is going back to his hometown before the Lunar New Year and will not resume until after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

When Wenjing had free time, she had nothing to do. During the day, she would either accompany her grandparents to the shop or go out for a stroll with Ding Heng.

In the evenings, she receives developmental guidance from men...

That afternoon, the rainy weather disappeared, and the sun, which rarely peeked out, shone warmly on our skin.

The two strolled along the food street, and Wenjing came to a roadside stall to buy some stinky tofu.

Ding Heng was following behind when his phone suddenly vibrated.

[Lucky Zhao]: Brother Ding Heng!!!

[Lucky Zhao]: []

[Lucky Zhao]: I miss you, I miss you, I miss you so much!!!

[Lucky Zhao]: How long until we can meet? I'm dying to see you!

Ding Heng chuckled and typed a reply.

[Ding Heng]: It will be after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. I have to go to Tibet on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and I estimate I will be back on the fifth day.

[Lucky Zhao]: Ah—it'll take so long!!!

[Lucky Zhao]: []

[Ding Heng]: Good boy, have a peaceful New Year and spend more time with your family.

[Lucky Zhao]: I'm so bored at home every day visiting relatives with my parents... Don't you miss me?

【丁衡】：To think.

[Lucky Zhao]: Just giving me the runaround!

[Lucky Zhao]: Then take a look at this, do you want it?

After the message was sent, several pictures popped up.

Ding Heng clicked on the first one.

Zhao Yanxi stood in front of the mirror, wearing only a thin slip dress, her long pinkish-blue hair cascading over her shoulders.

The nightgown was very short, barely covering the top of her thighs. The fabric was thin, and the outline of her skin was faintly visible. She turned slightly to the side, raised her arm to fix her hair, and the hem of the nightgown rode up a bit, revealing a small patch of fair skin on her side.

The second picture is a selfie she took in bed.

She lies on her side, the camera panning down, her neckline slightly open, revealing glimpses of her collarbone and the curves below. One leg is bent, her bare knee resting against the sheet, the calf extending smoothly down.

The third one is even worse.

She knelt by the bed, wearing black stockings on her lower body and completely naked from the waist up, with only her arms barely covering her chest. Her long hair hung down to one side, giving her a veiled look, and her eyes were slightly upturned, as if asking—did you miss me?

Ding Heng stared at the screen, his Adam's apple bobbing.

[Ding Heng]: Stop sending it.

[Lucky Zhao]: What's wrong? Doesn't it look good? []

[Ding Heng]: It looks good, but if you post it again, Wenjing will be the one who suffers tonight.

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end, then a series of "hahahahaha" emojis appeared.

[Lucky Zhao]: Then ask Xiao Jingjing to leave some for me! Don't eat alone!

[Lucky Zhao]: []

[Ding Heng]: Don't worry, when we meet after the New Year, I promise you'll have a good meal.

[Lucky Zhao]: []

[Lucky Zhao]: It's a deal! No backing out!

Ding Heng put away his phone, just as Wen Jing jogged back to him, carrying a bowl of freshly cooked stinky tofu.

She used a bamboo skewer to pick up a piece and brought it to Ding Heng's mouth: "Try it, this place tastes especially good! I asked him to add extra chili and pickled cowpeas."

Ding Heng opened his mouth to catch it, and the taste was indeed good, crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and spicy just right.

What did Yan hope say to you?

Wenjing picked up another piece and stuffed it into her mouth, asking indistinctly, "You've been chatting all the way here."

Ding Heng took the bowl from her hand, used a bamboo skewer to poke a piece and fed it back: "That's all... You miss me, when are we going to meet, you're bored at home, and you told me to go to Zhuzhou to find her."

Wenjing chewed on the stinky tofu in her mouth, lost in thought.

"Ding Heng, why don't you go to Zhuzhou and see Yan hope?"

"Why are you suddenly bringing this up?"

"I just feel..."

Wenjing lowered her head, looking slightly conflicted: "You've been keeping me company all this time. Yanxi is all alone in Zhuzhou, she must miss you a lot..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but her meaning was clear.

Ding Heng couldn't help but laugh when he saw the little rabbit's expression of both heartache for her best friend and reluctance to part with her.

"There's no need."

Ding Heng reached out and pinched her cheek: "In Xingcheng, the emperor is far away, and the three of us can do whatever we want. If we go to Zhuzhou, and Yan Xi's family finds out something, you know what her dad's profession is. It's better to avoid trouble for now."

Wenjing said "Oh," indicating that it made sense, but she was still conflicted.

"What about Yan hope...?"

"She's eating and drinking well at home, what could possibly happen to her? Besides, with her personality, she can always find a way to have fun anywhere, so don't worry about it."

Wenjing had no choice but to nod and open her mouth again to receive the food Ding Heng was feeding her, having been rendered speechless by Ding Heng's words.

"By the way, Ding Heng."

"Um?"

"I transferred some money to Xiaoshu yesterday."

"About buying an air conditioner?"

"Hmm... I had her buy one that cost over 3000, and after the discount it was 3288."

3288 isn't a lot for Wenjing these days, but she still feels it's necessary to explain it to Ding Heng.

"You don't need to report this small amount of money to me."

"good……"

Wenjing chewed her food silently, it was unclear whether she had heard anything.

Ding Heng nearly choked on the tofu, coughing twice: "You really want to go back?"

Wenjing blushed slightly and stammered, "I miss Xiaoshu a bit. Will you come back with me... and while we're at it, let's see Yanxi..."

Ding Heng was both amused and exasperated: "You're really that considerate of your best friend?"

Wenjing pursed her lips and remained silent.

"Alright, alright, let's go."

Ding Heng rubbed her head and took out his phone to send a message to Zhao Yanxi.

[Ding Heng]: Are you free later?

[Lucky Zhao]: Yes, yes, yes!!! Are you coming to find me?!

[Ding Heng]: Yes, I came with Wenjing.

[Lucky Zhao]: []

[Lucky Zhao]: What time are you arriving? I'll come pick you up!

[Ding Heng]: When it's time to send a message, make sure to tell your family beforehand so they don't give it away.

[Lucky Zhao]: Okay, okay!

More than an hour later, the car exited the highway and entered Zhuzhou city.

As the sun sets, the streetlights in Zhuzhou city gradually come on.

Ding Heng parked his car at an intersection near Zhao Yanxi's residential area and sent her his location.

Less than five minutes later, a familiar figure could be seen running towards them from afar.

Zhao Yanxi is dressed very simply today.

She wore a cream-colored short down jacket, a dark gray pleated skirt that revealed a section of her leg encased in thick black tights, and brown Martin boots.

Her long, light blue hair was tied in a high ponytail, swaying as she ran.

Ding Heng had just opened the car door and hadn't even had time to stand up properly when the girl's soft, delicate body crashed into his arms.

"Brother Ding Heng!!!"

Zhao Yanxi buried her face in his chest, unable to hide her joy: "I missed you so much!"

Ding Heng put his arm around her waist: "Alright, alright, you're a grown woman now."

"I just miss you..."

Zhao Yanxi greedily inhaled the man's scent.

Wenjing got out of the passenger seat and waved to her: "Yanxi."

Zhao Yanxi released Ding Heng and rushed over to hug Wenjing: "Little Jingjing! Let me see if there's any change?"

Wenjing was struggling to breathe from the tightness: "Okay, okay, loosen it a little..."

Zhao Yanxi released her grip, looked Wenjing up and down, and clicked her tongue twice: "Well done, little Jingjing, you look great. Looks like someone's been taking good care of you."

Wenjing blushed and reached out to pinch her: "Zhao Yanxi, shut up!"

Zhao Yanxi smiled and dodged away, her gaze suddenly falling on Wenjing's wrist—what a huge gold bracelet!

"Little Jingjing, this..."

Zhao Yanxi reached out and gently grasped Wenjing's wrist: "Did Ding Heng buy this for you?"

Wenjing subconsciously looked at Ding Heng, and seeing Ding Heng nod slightly, she whispered, "It was...it was given to me by my grandmother. She said it was my mother's keepsake."

Zhao Yanxi's fingers tightened slightly.

Wenjing looked somewhat embarrassed: "Last time I visited my grandparents, they insisted on putting it on me, and I couldn't refuse..."

Zhao Yanxi sighed with envy, "I'm so envious, Xiao Jingjing..."

Ding Heng joked, "If you want one, I'll buy you one."

"don't want."

Zhao Yanxi pouted, a bittersweet feeling welling up inside her.

Is this about the gold bracelet...?

She thought she wouldn't be jealous of Wenjing anymore, but in the end, she was more concerned about inequality than scarcity.

Ding Heng was usually fair and impartial, but the gold bracelet left by his mother was unique to him.

You can't just melt them down and make two new ones, can you?

Zhao Yanxi linked arms with Wenjing and took out her phone: "Come on, let's take a picture together, you two sisters!"

Wenjing stumbled as she was pulled, and before she could react, Zhao Yanxi had already raised her phone and brought her face close.

"Come on, raise your hand and make a V sign!"

"Oh……"

Although Wenjing didn't know what Zhao Yanxi was up to, she still obediently cooperated.

V(＾－＾)(＾－＾)V

With a "click," the image froze.

Zhao Yanxi looked down at the photo, nodded in satisfaction, and began editing the text.

Wenjing leaned over for a look: "You posted this on WeChat Moments?"

"yes."

Why post it on WeChat Moments?

"Of course, we want to show it to people who know about bracelets."

Wenjing blinked, not understanding.

Ding Heng's heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough, his phone vibrated less than two minutes later.

[Sister Long is a dragon, not a milk dragon]: [Image]

【Sister Long is a dragon, not a milk dragon】: Ding Heng! You actually gave Auntie's bracelet to someone else!?

Ding Heng took a deep breath and turned to look at Zhao Yanxi.

Zhao Yanxi looked completely innocent: "Brother Ding Heng, what's wrong?"

Ding Heng was both annoyed and amused; he really shouldn't have come to Zhuzhou.

[Ding Heng]: It was given to me by my maternal grandmother.

There was silence on the other side for about half a minute.

[Sister Long is a dragon, not a milk dragon]: []

[Sister Long is a dragon, not a milk dragon]: Okay then...

【Sister Long is a dragon, not a milk dragon】: But you have to tell her to keep it safe and not lose it.

Ding Heng: Don't worry.

[Sister Long is a dragon, not a milk dragon]: My aunt originally intended to leave this to me...

[Ding Heng]: Did my mom say that?

[Sister Long is a dragon, not a milk dragon]: Definitely!

[Ding Heng]: Then she must have had some conditions, right?

【Sister Long is a dragon, not a milk dragon】: Hmph!

[Sister Long is a dragon, not a milk dragon]: []

Ding Heng put away his phone, walked over, and lightly flicked Zhao Yanxi's forehead: "Satisfied now?"

Zhao Yanxi rubbed her forehead and chuckled twice: "Ding Heng, what are you saying? I don't understand."

Wenjing was completely bewildered: "What's wrong?"

Ding Heng snorted coldly: "It's nothing, someone's just being naughty. We'll deal with her tonight!"

Zhao Yanxi stuck out her tongue and changed the subject.

"Brother Ding Heng, where are we going later?"

What are your plans?

"I invited two of my junior high classmates, so we can go together!"

Wenjing, who was in the same class as Zhao Yanxi in junior high, asked curiously, "Who is it?"

"That guy...?"

Zhao Yanxi murmured, "Tang Zhi! And Li Yuqing! Do you remember her? We were pretty close in junior high, but then Tang Zhi went to high school in another city and we lost touch. We chatted in the group a few days ago and found out she went back to Zhuzhou for the Lunar New Year, so we arranged to meet up today."

Wenjing briefly responded, "Of course I remember. Tang Zhi was the vice class monitor back then, and she took good care of me..."

Ding Heng prepared to get in the car: "Get in, I'll take you there."

Zhao Yanxi immediately snuggled up to him, hooking her arm around his and pleading, "Aren't you going to stay with us?"

Ding Heng looked down at her. This girl was clearly trying to show off her relationship again in front of her old classmates.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

"Great!"

Zhao Yanxi cheered and pulled Wenjing into the back seat.

The meeting place was a beautifully decorated dessert shop in the city center.

When the three arrived, two people were already sitting in the window seats.

A slightly chubby girl spotted Zhao Yanxi and immediately waved, "Yanxi! Over here!"

Ding Heng followed the two girls inside, glancing around at them.

The slightly chubby girl must be Tang Zhi; she has a rather friendly smile.

The other one, named Li Yuqing, was tall and had fairly delicate features.

"Little Jingjing! Long time no see!"

Tang Zhi enthusiastically grabbed Wen Jing's hand: "Wow, you're getting more and more beautiful! How come your skin is so fair?"

Wenjing smiled shyly, "No way..."

Li Yuqing also came over and gave Zhao Yanxi a warm hug.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Tang Zhi looked at Ding Heng and asked curiously, "Yan hope, who is this...?"

Just as Zhao Yanxi was about to speak, Ding Heng had already walked to Wen Jing's side and naturally put his arm around her shoulder.

"I am Wenjing's boyfriend."

Zhao Yanxi's smile was stiff.

Wenjing was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously looked at Ding Heng, then at Zhao Yanxi, her face slightly flushed.

Zhao Yanxi quickly recovered and grinned as she moved closer to Wenjing: "Yes, he's Jingjing's boyfriend! What do you think, handsome, right?"

Tang Zhi exclaimed, "Wow! How did you two meet?"

Wenjing stammered, unsure how to answer.

Ding Heng came to her rescue: "We were college classmates, from the same school."

"Oh……"

Tang Zhi nodded, then turned to Zhao Yanxi: "Yanxi, what about you? I saw on your WeChat Moments that you have a boyfriend too, don't you?"

Zhao Yanxi smiled slightly: "It's a secret."

The group sat down, laughing and joking, and the waiter handed them the menu.

Zhao Yanxi naturally sat down next to Ding Heng, while Wen Jing sat on the other side.

When ordering, Zhao Yanxi leaned close to Ding Heng and pointed to a cake on the menu: "This looks good, I want to eat this one."

Ding Heng glanced at it and said, "One serving, please."

Zhao Yanxi then pointed to another one: "I want to eat this one too."

"Anything works!"

"Then I'll order?"

Zhao Yanxi looked up at him, her tone sweet and cloying.

Ding Heng ignored her and turned to ask Wen Jing, "What do you want to eat?"

Wenjing was looking down in a daze when she heard this, so she looked up and said, "Whatever, you decide."

Zhao Yanxi pouted and muttered under her breath, "They're treating us differently again..."

While waiting for their desserts, the girls chatted about their recent lives.

Tang Zhi studied English at an ordinary second-tier university. Her grades were average, and she didn't have any special plans.

Li Yuqing studied at a junior college in another city, majoring in the same field as Wenjing: accounting.

Ding Heng leaned back in his chair, listening quietly to the girls chatting, only responding occasionally when asked a question.

Zhao Yanxi was unusually talkative today, chatting with Tang Zhi and Li Yuqing about all sorts of things, from junior high to university.

Wherever she goes, she is the center of attention, always radiating energy and appearing to glow.

Tang Zhi was amused by her and kept laughing. Li Yuqing also gradually relaxed and occasionally chimed in with a few words.

As they chatted, Tang Zhi suddenly remembered something, took out her phone, swiped a few times, and looked at Zhao Yanxi: "By the way, Yanxi, your boyfriend on WeChat Moments..."

She paused mid-sentence, her gaze shifting back and forth between Ding Heng and Wen Jing.

Zhao Yanxi asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing."

Tang Zhi lowered her head and glanced at her phone screen again.

The screen displays Zhao Yanxi's WeChat Moments, the most recent post being a photo of her and Wen Jing.

Scrolling down further, there's a post from over a month ago, featuring an intimate photo of Zhao Yanxi and her boyfriend.

The boy's profile was clearly defined; it was Ding Heng sitting opposite him!

Tang Zhi looked up at Ding Heng, then at Wen Jing, then at Zhao Yanxi, her mind a jumbled mess.

Yan hope clearly posted photos of herself with this guy on her WeChat Moments, and the tone was so intimate. How come she's now Wenjing's boyfriend?

Not right.

Something is very wrong.

A short while later, Zhao Yanxi got up and went to the restroom.

Tang Zhi hesitated for a few seconds, then stood up as well.

The two entered the restroom one after the other. After hesitating several times, Tang Zhi still caught up with her and asked, "Yan hope."

"Um?"

"Um... Ding Heng, is he really Wenjing's boyfriend?"

"Of course, why?"

Zhao Yanxi's calm and natural tone made Tang Zhi feel inexplicably guilty.

"It's nothing...it's just...it's just..."

"Just say what you want to say. We're friends, it's okay."

"I……"

Tang Zhi finally couldn't hold back: "I saw a photo of you and Wenjing's boyfriend on your WeChat Moments..."

"You discovered that?"

Zhao Yanxi smiled, her tone nonchalant: "Don't tell anyone, I've blocked Xiaojing from my WeChat Moments."

Tang Zhi was stunned.

Block Wenjing?

That means... Zhao Yanxi and Wenjing's boyfriend are having an affair!?

Wenjing had no idea!

Her mind went blank for a moment, and before she could say anything, Zhao Yanxi had already turned and left.

Tang Zhi stood there stunned for a long time before she came to her senses.

She took a deep breath, washed her face, and returned to her seat.

Zhao Yanxi was looking at something on Ding Heng's phone.

The two were very close, with Zhao Yanxi practically pressed against Ding Heng, while Ding Heng, being a quiet boyfriend, showed no intention of avoiding any appearance of impropriety.

Wenjing sat on the other side, looking down at her phone replying to messages.

Tang Zhi sat down, feeling as if a stone was pressing on her heart.

For the next half hour, she barely spoke, her gaze constantly shifting between the three people.

Zhao Yanxi interacted with Ding Heng from time to time, sometimes handing him things, sometimes whispering to him, their behavior as intimate as could be.

Although Ding Heng did not do anything on his own initiative, he never avoided it either.

Wenjing remained quiet throughout, occasionally glancing up to chat with Tang Zhi, as innocent as a blank sheet of paper, seemingly oblivious to everything.

Tang Zhi couldn't help but feel sorry for her when she saw how unguarded she looked.

She thought of Wenjing when she was in junior high school.

Back then, Wenjing was an inconspicuous nobody, following behind Zhao Yanxi. She spoke softly and would blush when the teacher called on her to answer questions.

Now she's more beautiful and confident, and her smile is captivating.

But why did this happen?

Li Yuqing also noticed that the atmosphere between Ding Heng and Zhao Yanxi was not right, but she didn't say anything the whole time. She just glanced at the two of them out of the corner of her eye from time to time and then quickly looked away.

Zhao Yanxi reached her hand into Ding Heng's arms again, and Ding Heng not only did not dodge, but instead took the opportunity to pinch Zhao Yanxi's fingers and began to play with them.

Tang Zhi had reached her limit!

She took a deep breath, her voice trembling slightly: "Wenjing, you...you come with me for a moment."

Wenjing looked up and noticed that Tang Zhi's expression was off. A little puzzled, she asked, "What's wrong?"

"You'll see once you come with me."

Wenjing looked at Ding Heng, then at Zhao Yanxi, her face blank.

"Go."

Ding Heng nodded.

Wenjing stood up and followed Tang Zhi toward the restroom.

As Tang Zhi reached the corner of the corridor, she suddenly stopped, turned around, and stared at Wen Jing with a complex expression.

Wenjing felt a little flustered by her gaze: "Tang Zhi, what's wrong?"

Tang Zhi bit her lower lip, as if she had made a great decision, took out her phone from her pocket, swiped a few times, and handed the screen to Wen Jing.

"Wenjing, your boyfriend is cheating on you! Haven't you noticed at all?!"

Wen Jing stared blankly at the photo of Zhao Yanxi and Ding Heng on Tang Zhi's phone.

Tang Zhi scrolled down again: "And this one, this one, this one... Look at the dates, the earliest one is from half a year ago! Were you with Ding Heng back then? Has he been lying to you all along?"

Wenjing swallowed hard, her expression gradually becoming subtle.

"Yan Xi, how could she do this? How could she cheat on you with your boyfriend... Wenjing, don't be sad, I'll go with you to confront them. This kind of thing can't be tolerated, besides..."

Tang Zhi emphasized this loudly at the end.

"She's your best friend!"
