The result will only be utter defeat.
He Li clearly saw what kind of person Zhang Yuhan was.
She was just as self-important as Liu Yuyan!
And just as prone to taking advantage of situations.
The difference was, this woman was even more artificial.
And even more unscrupulous in achieving her goals.
But in the end, she was still just a young girl.
Having never experienced the harsh realities of society, her character was unstable, often revealing her true nature, for example, just now, anger and extreme grievance instantly made her lose her composure and do something wrong.
She forgot, how could He Li, someone who could make Zhou Qingming obediently comply, be easily manipulated by her?
Deluding herself into thinking she could force He Li to bow his head by relying on others' opinions... was that possible? Clearly, it was impossible!
If He Li could be forced to bow his head by a few words,
Then there wouldn't be so many scoundrels in this world!
Now that Zhang Yuhan had sobered up, she felt extremely stupid.
She had originally intended to build a good relationship with He Li, then cling to him as a big tree to achieve the future she desired, but now she had completely backfired, and her relationship with He Li had become hostile.
How could she pursue him in such a situation?
It would be lucky if he didn't hold a grudge and kill her!
The more Zhang Yuhan thought about it, the more flustered she became.
Song Lan, beside her, was even worse off than Zhang Yuhan.
Both had lost their earlier arrogance and smugness; after confronting the clowns around them who were denouncing He Li, they watched the mocking He Li with unease, continuously apologizing... "He Li, just now... just now I, I didn't mean it, I was just too worried about Yu Han!"
"I... I apologize to you, I'm sorry!"
"I was also wrong, I shouldn't have asked you to carry things..."
"He Li, we were wrong, we're really sorry!"
...Song Lan and Zhang Yuhan clutched their clothes, their voices trembling.
He Li put away the mockery on his face and said nothing.
His original intention was just to scare them.
After all, he was just an ordinary person; being able to command people like Zhou Qingming was only because Miao Xiaoyu was backing him up. He knew his limits and naturally wouldn't go too far.
If he acted recklessly, it would not only bring trouble to himself but also make things difficult for Miao Xiaoyu.
He Li didn't want to cause trouble for his little girlfriend.
But he also wasn't afraid of encountering problems.
If he really ran into trouble that required ruthless action... he would definitely find a way to deal with the other party.
Speaking of which, in his memories of his previous life, his family did encounter a problem after he went to college.
Although his parents didn't elaborate at the time,
He Li later learned that his father was injured.
"When I have time, I'll ask Zhou Qingming to help me keep an eye on the family."
"Since I've been reborn and have connections now,"
"Then I can't just watch my family get into trouble again!"
After briefly recalling some memories from his previous life, He Li snapped back to reality and looked at Song Lan and Zhang Yuhan, who were full of trepidation, and said coldly, "I don't want this to happen a second time!"
"Otherwise, you know the consequences!"
"Mhm mhm mhm!" The two girls nodded happily upon hearing this.
He Li's scare just now, though not life-threatening, could potentially leave their families homeless.
At that point, let alone going to college or anything else.
Both of them, young girls in their prime, would have to go to a factory to screw in bolts!
This was simply too cruel and terrifying for two young girls who harbored "beautiful dreams" and only wanted to live a life of extravagance.
Now that their families could be safe and sound... they naturally felt a joy of surviving a catastrophe.
Seeing them behave, He Li no longer bothered with them.
His gaze returned to Wei Wei!
At this moment, Wei Wei's expression was very complicated.
Zhang Yuhan and Song Lan's actions just now made her clearly realize that her two good friends actually didn't see her as a real good friend, but merely as a tool to be used.
The merchandise she worked so hard to make... it was one thing that Zhang Yuhan didn't want to carry it.
She carried it over to show off in front of He Li, and then threw it away carelessly when she got angry and felt wronged?
And she subtly implied that she was more capable than herself... Wei Wei used to just think she was a bit arrogant.
Now Wei Wei knew what kind of person she really was!
"It was all for naught after all!" Wei Wei shook her head secretly.
She composed herself and met He Li's gaze... "You heard it just now, if you really want to recruit me into your Studio, Yu Han is better than me..." She said, but before she could finish, He Li interrupted her directly.
"No need to compare with her!" He Li continued, "I've learned about the game you and your friends made."
"To be honest, I think it's very good."
"Although that game still has quite a few problems."
"But you haven't even entered university yet, have you?"
"After a few more years of university, with more knowledge and experience..."
"I think you'll shine brightly in the gaming industry!"
"I do intend to recruit you. I see your potential, and I also feel that bringing you in, ultimately, cultivating new recruits like you as a core team is more reliable."
"This is much better than recruiting those old hands..."
He Li spoke simply and clearly.
Wei Wei also understood.
He Li was a university student, just like her.
They had enough time to try and strive.
Regardless of whether they succeeded during this period, their continuous accumulation would make them strong enough, and they would trust each other more. Even if they were so bad that they had to disband, they could still find decent jobs.
Of course, if they really succeeded... then they might truly shine brightly!
As she pondered, a flicker of emotion crossed Wei Wei's eyes.
Seeing this, He Li smiled and said, "Shall we eat and talk?"
"Okay!" Wei Wei nodded decisively, "Then wait a moment."
She said, then went with the short-haired girl beside her to pick up the merchandise on the ground.
He Li also helped, and seeing Wei Wei struggling with the items, he lent a hand. Wei Wei couldn't help but ask, "Yu Han asked you for help just now, but you didn't help her, did you?"
"This is different!" He Li shook his head.
"Helping is kindness, not helping is your right."
"I can be kind-hearted and offer help proactively."
"But you cannot arrogantly demand my help!"
"That makes sense!" Wei Wei pushed up her glasses and nodded.
Back in the car, Miao Xiaoyu immediately pounced on him.
He Li put down his things and happily hugged her, sniffing non-stop.
Hmm, my Xiaoyu still smells the best!
He thought proudly. Miao Xiaoyu lifted her head from his embrace and looked at Wei Wei, who was behind him and somewhat envious. Wei Wei was exclaiming, "Your relationship is so good!" Miao Xiaoyu's small face flushed upon hearing this.
"Hello, my name is Miao Xiaoyu!"
After a brief moment to compose herself, Miao Xiaoyu struggled out of He Li's embrace and extended her hand to Wei Wei to shake hands.
The two beautiful girls chatted very congenially.
He Li occasionally joined in, a smile on his face.
When they arrived at their destination for dinner, Wei Wei watched Miao Xiaoyu obediently sitting next to He Li, peeling shrimp for him, pouring him wine, and also watched He Li thoughtfully putting food on Miao Xiaoyu's plate and whispering jokes to make her laugh. She felt a pang of jealousy... She suddenly regretted agreeing to He Li's recruitment and joining his Studio when they were eating.
Wouldn't she be stuffed to death with their public displays of affection from now on?
However... looking up at He Li, whose eyes were only on Miao Xiaoyu, Wei Wei revealed a faint, self-deprecating smile.
To be honest, when He Li first approached her... she never thought he was interested in her talent.
She thought He Li was like those Second-generation rich... coming for her looks and figure.
At that time, she was still thinking of accepting his invitation so as not to offend He Li, who seemed to have a background, but then she would cut off contact with him and keep her distance, not wanting to get involved with people like them.
However, now Wei Wei knew... He Li couldn't possibly be interested in her.
Because He Li loved Miao Xiaoyu, their hearts were completely filled with each other and could no longer accommodate anyone else. Anyone who tried to come between them, no matter how beautiful or handsome... the result would only be utter defeat!
That Zhang Yuhan was a living example!
But, perhaps she still didn't understand it yet.
Recalling Zhang Yuhan, her once thought-to-be good friend... a hint of mockery appeared in Wei Wei's eyes!
