CHAPTER 453: CHAPTER 453: HE DOESN’T NEED YOU (PART 3)

"You should leave. There’s no need to play the sympathy card here. Jianan doesn’t want to see you. He’s locked himself in his room, only letting Yaoyao accompany him."

Tang Yanqi hung her head without speaking. Mrs. Sheng continued, "If you don’t believe it, go up and see for yourself, see if Jianan lets you in."

After saying this, Mrs. Sheng left without looking back. Tang Yanqi took a deep breath, recalling Sheng Jiayu’s words to her.

She was now very unsure of herself, very unsure, and at such times, people often need someone else’s words to affirm themselves.

She trusted Sheng Jiayu. She believed that Sheng Jianan holding Shen Yao and relying on Shen Yao was just an unintended act out of grief.

She went up to the second floor, stood at Sheng Jianan’s room door, gathered her courage, and knocked. No response. She gathered her courage again and knocked, saying, "Jianan, it’s me."

There was still no response inside, until a few seconds later when an angry shout came: "Go away!"

Tang Yanqi’s hand stiffened in mid-air, for a long time without a response. Another few seconds passed, the door opened, and Shen Yao came out: "You should leave, Jianan said he doesn’t want to see you."

After speaking, Shen Yao returned and closed the door.

The vastness of Sheng Family’s old house mirrored the emptiness in Tang Yanqi’s heart at that moment.

In the end, she had no idea how she left Sheng Family’s old house. Tang Yanqi didn’t know where to go, Lake Bay Villa? Urban Apartment?

When she came to herself, she was already standing at the entrance of K University’s dormitory.

Tang Yanqi walked into the dormitory like a lost soul, where three people looked over together.

News of Mr. Sheng’s passing had already made the newspaper, causing an uproar in Shengshi Group. The three people were aware, and upon seeing Tang Yanqi return, exchanged glances, daring not to make a sound.

Qi Cheng came over to Tang Yanqi and cautiously spoke, "Tangtang..."

The dazed Tang Yanqi, after glancing at her, collapsed. Qi Cheng hurriedly embraced her, while Bai Bing and Bai Xue also reached out immediately.

The three of them embraced her together.

For once, the rarely crying Tang Yanqi burst into tears, clinging to her friends and becoming a crying mess.

Perhaps it was her touching voice, or maybe sadness was contagious, the eyes of the three girls in the dormitory brimmed with tears.

Tang Yanqi cried for a long time, until her voice grew hoarse and even moving her vocal cords hurt, only then did she stop.

It was already very late. Bai Bing rushed out before the dormitory closed and brought back a bucket of instant noodles, then boiled water for Tang Yanqi

But the time was too tight, the water wasn’t boiled before the power went out, the lukewarm water barely soaked the noodles, a mix of soft and hard that was hard to eat.

Tang Yanqi held it in her palms. She had no appetite, yet this was the best instant noodles she had ever eaten.

The entire night, no one in the dormitory slept, they stayed with her, but didn’t offer comforting words, just chatted about this and that.

Like a new stall selling fried chicken fillets had opened in the snack street behind the school, or that the milk tea shop they often visited had two new flavors but they tasted like toothpaste.

Tang Yanqi didn’t sleep for two nights straight, eventually succumbing to physical fatigue and collapsing.

But she slept lightly, waking up shortly afterward.

She opened her eyes to the faintly bright sky outside, her first instinct was to grab her phone to check for messages.
