Sun Haoyu's lips twisted into a smirk. "Tool? Who doesn't know how close the two of you are? The Jiang Sisters, inseparable. What hurts one, breaks the other."
He leaned back smugly. "So I figured... why not hit you where it hurts more?"
Gao Tian's fists curled at his sides. His knuckles whitened.
Jiang Yue on the other hand, became silent, which is more chilling than any threat.
The quiet stretched long.
Sun Haoyu mistook it for victory. His smugness deepened, his back straightened.
But inside that stillness, Jiang Yue was assessing him.
Measuring every blink, every breath, every twitch.
Finally, she spoke—low and even.
"You made two mistakes, Sun Haoyu. The first was underestimating how far I'd go to get even. The second... going after Jiang Xiu."
Sun Haoyu scoffed, forcing a smirk through his unease. "What are you gonna do, Jiang Yue? Report me to the university? Get me suspended twice?"
He leaned forward, false confidence lacing his voice.
