Chapter 428: 418, Tonight, she said a lot of sweet nothings! (Super sweet additional update!)

Ye Qingcao’s thoughts could not align with Pu Sangzhi’s!

Therefore, upon hearing Pu Sangzhi utter such disheartening words, Ye Qingcao immediately patted her on the shoulder to encourage her, "Sangzhi, I think you mustn’t overthink the other messy factors! Love is very simple! I like you, you like me, then we’re together! Just like that!"

Pu Sangzhi turned her head and gazed at Ye Qingcao, her eyebrows and eyes fluttering gently, "Xiaocao, you’re so naive."

Ye Qingcao shook her head, "Sangzhi, it’s not that I’m naive, it’s that you’re too mature! At our age, you’re thinking too much about the future, thinking so far ahead, you’re putting too much pressure on yourself!"

Pu Sangzhi lowered her gaze, her lips curving into a slightly bitter smile, "Is that so?"

Ye Qingcao took Pu Sangzhi’s hand, squeezing her arm, and shared her own opinion, "I think... Huo Feng likes you, treats you well, spoils you, has chosen you, his intentions are already very clear! He has shown it already, you must not think of letting him go! By doing that, you would actually disappoint him!"

"I won’t let him go,"

Pu Sangzhi said just as frankly, "I still hope he can accompany me to Tsinghua, stay with me till the end, hope that it will always be him."

"That’s right then!"

Ye Qingcao nodded, "So you must never think of backing out! I tell you, even if that sneaky mistress has better conditions, she can’t compare to Huo Feng liking you! As long as Huo Feng’s heart doesn’t change, you’re the winner!"

Pu Sangzhi suddenly stopped walking, turned her head and her gaze firmly locked onto Ye Qingcao.

Ye Qingcao immediately raised a finger and continued, "Who cares if she’s the principal’s daughter or whoever! Even if the daughter of the world’s richest man fancies Huo Feng, it’s none of your business! Who likes Huo Feng, that’s for Huo Feng to deal with! You should trust Huo Feng, ignore those people! You must never start rejecting Huo Feng because of those people! That would be unfair to Huo Feng!"

Yeah...

Xiaocao’s words had awakened her.

Pu Sangzhi suddenly felt that the naive Xiaocao had spoken a great truth, enlightening her!

"Xiaocao, I suddenly understand a bit..."

Pu Sangzhi pursed her lips, pondered for a moment then said, "What you say makes sense. Although it’s a fact my family is not well-off. But what has Han Feiyi’s confession to do with me? Even without me, Huo Feng still wouldn’t fancy her, wouldn’t choose her, right?"

Ye Qingcao: "Are you talking about the mistress named Han Feiyi?"

Pu Sangzhi abruptly grabbed Ye Qingcao’s hand, her face alight with joy, "Why should I compare myself with Han Feiyi? Huo Feng doesn’t like her, there’s no need for me to compare myself to her..."

Ye Qingcao: "Sangzhi, what are you thinking about?"

Pu Sangzhi had a realization, "I understand now. I sensed Han Feiyi’s hostility, I felt she was targeting me, so I unconsciously compared myself to her, which led to my feelings of inferiority..."

Ye Qingcao scratched her head, "I don’t understand... You’re so perfect, why feel inferior?"

Pu Sangzhi suddenly took a deep breath, her heart unexpectedly felt more open, "Understood."

Ye Qingcao asked, "Understood what?"

Suddenly, Pu Sangzhi took out her phone from her pocket, opened WeChat, went to Huo Feng’s Moments, and found the post that Huo Feng shared last night.

He had posted: [You’ve said before, ’Withered mulberry leaves, all-knowing wind.’ I trust that you understand me, that you won’t reject me, look down on me, or belittle me. If you see this, give me a reply, tell me, you believe me! From someone!]

Looking at this post, Pu Sangzhi’s mouth curled up into a smile, and quickly, she replied underneath: [I understand you, don’t reject you, don’t look down on you, don’t belittle you, and I do trust you. Moreover, may I ask Mr. Wind, though you know I am but a withered leaf, will you stay with me until spring blossoms?]

In autumn, the vine branches are laden with withered mulberries, and when a gentle breeze passes through, how could the withered mulberries understand the loneliness of the wind, and not know if the wind can tenderly cherish the frailty of the withered mulberries? Can it keep them warm through the cold and into the spring bloom?

Pu Sangzhi thought...

At this moment, she was like a withered mulberry leaf, and the gentle breeze that swept through her life was soft, caring for and protecting her...

Just didn’t know if Huo Feng could stay with her through life’s low ebbs? Could he accompany her to welcome the warm spring?

Perhaps, she could live resiliently, slowly breathing new life into a once desolate existence?

"Xiaocao..."

Pu Sangzhi’s lips suddenly curved into a smile, her face gracefully lit up, her eyes brimming with emotion, "Withered mulberry knows the all-knowing wind, but wonders if the gentle breeze could cherish me, protect me, understand me, see my beauty..."

Ye Qingcao puffed up her cheeks...

Oh no, she didn’t understand what Sangzhi was saying!

Were these words of affection? For her, Ye Qingcao? Or for Huo Feng?
