Chapter 8

“What are you angry about?” Wen Yu’s eyebrows lifted higher and higher with each passing moment. “He harassed you. Shouldn’t I teach him a lesson?”

This person doesn’t even know where he went wrong. He has always been like this, arrogant, conceited, and self-righteous!

He ignored everything she said and insisted on going on his own way.

Ji Anning clenched her fists and the accumulated grievances and anger in her heart surged. She gritted her teeth, stood up, picked up her bag, and left.

“Junior Sister!” Wen Yu immediately stood up and chased after her. He caught up with her outside KFC and said, “Ji Anning!”

Ji Anning can’t seem to hear him. Her mind was in a mess as she quickly walked towards the road.

Wen Yu’s pupils shrank suddenly. He took a step like an arrow and grabbed Ji Anning’s arm, pulling her back forcibly.

Immediately after, a car rushed past them almost running them over.

Ji Anning didn’t resist and let him lead her across the street. When they reached the other side, she pulled her wrist away – she was still not used to physical contact with the opposite sex.

“Feeling better?” Wen Yu looked closely at her face and felt that it wasn’t as pale as before. “Can we talk properly now?”

Ji Anning tightened her book bag strap and lifted her head.

“You shouldn’t have hit him,” she said. “Using violence to solve problems is not right.”

Wen Yu almost laughed out loud.

With such a pretty face, why does she have such a one-track mind? She’s like a primary school student.

“No, it’s just that you…” he couldn’t control his laughter. “Why are you so cute?”

But Ji Anning didn’t find it funny at all. She asked, “Do you often get into fights?”

“How could that be?” Wen Yu had a hard time holding back his laughter and answered seriously, “Maybe only in middle or high school, when we were kind of childish, and we led a group of little brothers, bossing around and fighting all the time, thinking we were cool. But now we’re adults, and playing these games would just make us look ridiculous.”

That’s a lie. He had fought in more than one fight just because of her.

Ji Anning looked at Wen Yu’s smiling face and knew that he didn’t take this seriously. But in her eyes, this reflected his inner impulsulsiveness and disregard for consequences.

If he continued like this, even without her involvement, one day he might still do something self-destructive when he encountered other people or events.

In Ji Anning’s ears, she seemed to hear the sound of prison doors closing and feel the fear of bullets whizzing past.

She felt her heart contracting in pain.

In this lifetime, she didn’t want to die, nor did she want Wen Yu to end up in the same situation again!

Since her rebirth, Ji Anning had been hiding and hesitating for several days. Now, she finally saw her own heart clearly.

No matter what her impression of Wen Yu was in her previous life, after experiencing what happened after her death, she could no longer distance herself from him.

No matter how much she disliked him, she had no right to distance herself from the young man who had disregarded his own life for her.

What could she do to prevent him from repeating the mistakes of his past life?

Wen Yu watched as Ji Anning’s beautiful face gradually turned pale and her eyes became teary after he finished speaking.

She looks so weak and powerless, as if she could collapse at any moment.

Could it be that she’s not feeling well?

“Are you okay?” Wen Yu couldn’t help but support her shoulder and ask in a low voice.

Under his palm, he could feel the thin and slender shoulder. Yet this fragile girl carried two heavy lunch boxes every noon and evening, shuttling between the cafeteria and the dormitory building, with sweat on her forehead.

Wen Yu remembered what he had observed in the past few days and thought of her family situation, and he couldn’t help but feel pity for her.

Ji Anning’s tears almost fell.

“Could you… could you…” She choked up a bit, “not fight anymore in the future?”

Wen Yu blinked, “What?”

Ji Anning looked at Wen Yu in front of her. He was arrogant, domineering, and self-righteous, completely like the annoying rich kid in her memory. If he could just live his life peacefully and safely, it would be so good.

He should never die for her again!

“I just hope that in the future, no matter what happens, you won’t act impulsively, okay?” Ji Anning begged with a slightly choked voice.

She had never spoken to a young person of the opposite sex like this before, full of pitiful begging.

Wen Yu looked at her with interest and found that the concern in her eyes was real and sincere. He didn’t know where it came from or why, but it was not fake.

“We just met, and you’re already trying to control me?” He asked playfully, “Junior sister, who am I to you?”

---

The tone of his words was exactly the same as the Wen Yu that she had always hated.

Ji Anning calmed down a bit. She turned her head and wiped her face, wiping away a tear that couldn’t help but fall. Then she turned her head back, her tone much calmer: “You’re not anyone to me, I just hope that in the future, you won’t act impulsively and do something irreversible.”

She knew that from Wen Yu’s perspective, they had only known each other for a short time, and this kind of advice sounded awkward to him. But she couldn’t help but say it.

As soon as Ji Anning finished speaking, her phone rang. She took out her phone and saw the caller ID read “Mrs. Zhao from Ansheng, Sixth Floor”.

This was the family she was supposed to tutor tomorrow morning, a job she had found online before her rebirth. She had already gone there once for a lesson, and tomorrow was supposed to be the second time.

But this morning, she had rearranged her schedule and sent a message to Mrs. Zhao to cancel the subsequent appointments.

Mrs. Zhao was probably busy this morning, so she only had time to call now. As Ji Anning expected, as soon as the call was connected, she was angrily questioned, “Xiao Ji, what’s going on with you? Last week, I even praised you to my husband, thinking you were reliable! You said you wouldn’t come again? Where am I supposed to find a teacher now? You’ve wasted my child’s weekend for nothing!”

“Sorry, Mrs. Zhao,” Ji Anning said calmly, “but I really can’t make it.”

“You’re so irresponsible! If you said you wouldn’t come, then you’re just going to bail!” Mrs. Zhao said in anger, “What’s the reason? You have to give me a reason, don’t you?”

Ji Anning was silent for a moment. Mrs. Zhao was actually a pretty good sister, who devoted herself to her child and family. She also took good care of her.

After considering for a moment, Ji Anning spoke, “Because you may often go for beauty treatments on weekends, and there are only your son and… your husband at home. So I suggest you try to find a male teacher in the future, if possible.”

There was sudden silence on the phone, and after a while, Mrs. Zhao asked hesitantly, “What do you mean?”

Ji Anning sighed lightly in her heart and said, “That’s all I have to say. It’s up to you to decide what to do next.” With that, she hung up the phone.
As she looked up, Wen Yu’s expression was a little cold.

“What’s going on?” he asked.

Ji Anning had been entangled with him for so long and knew his temper. She immediately said, “Nothing.”

“Are you kidding me?” Wen Yu frowned, “Did that guy lay his hands on you?”

Ji Anning said, “No,” and turned to leave.

“Hey!” Wen Yu grabbed her wrist and raised his eyebrows, “You really have a talent for making trouble.”

What talent? She had never done anything improper, never seduced anyone. The only reason why girls in this world are harassed, bullied, and insulted is because men can’t control their desires.

What’s hateful is that there are always people like the fat aunt on the bus who blame the victimized girls for the incident.

Others may respond sarcastically, but Ji Anning, who has died and come back to life, would fight back.

But Wen Yu is not someone else. When he said this, Ji Anning felt not only angry but also ashamed.

In his eyes, what kind of girl is she after all? He entangled her, threatened her, and even made inappropriate advances. What kind of person does he see her as in his heart?

Ji Anning struggled out of his grip and angrily said, “Don’t touch me!”

Compared to her pale, fragile appearance just now, her angry face was full of vitality.

After all, Wen Yu is a modern young man with a higher education and not an old-fashioned person like the fat aunt. When he saw the flames burning in Ji Anning’s eyes, he immediately understood the reason for her anger. He quickly raised both hands to apologize.

“I didn’t mean that,” he said, “Of course it’s not your fault! This kind of thing is definitely the man’s fault, otherwise, why did I go teach that idiot a lesson yesterday?”

He said, “I just want to ask if that guy did anything to you? If so, I’ll go teach him a lesson.”

Ji Anning’s emotions eased slightly.

“He didn’t do anything,” she said, “I just… didn’t feel comfortable and decided not to go there again.”

Mrs. Zhao’s husband hadn’t done much at this time. Mrs. Zhao had been watching for a month, feeling that Ji Anning was dependable, so she felt comfortable leaving her children with her on the weekends and going out for beauty treatments. At this time, the man began to make moves.

Fortunately, there were still children in the house, and Ji Anning used the children as shields and avoided the man’s advances. She never went back to that house again.

All of this happened a month later, and because Ji Anning had helped the children with their studies, their grades had significantly improved, and Mrs. Zhao had been calling her to come back. She refused.

“You’re quite smart,” Wen Yu praised her.

He looked at her with a smile and said, “Ji Anning, be my girlfriend.”

The weather was beautiful and the sun was warm, but this handsome and sexy young man spoke despicable words and didn’t seem to think there was anything wrong with them.

“Be my girlfriend, and I’ll take care of you.”

“You’re living too hard. A girl like you shouldn’t be living like this.”

“There’s nothing money can’t solve. I can solve all the difficulties you’re facing right now.”

This person was brimming with confidence and spoke seriously in a way that made listeners want to punch him.

Ji Anning remembered, she disliked Wen Yu for a reason, and it wasn’t unfounded.
