“Apologize?”
Su Liang slightly raised his brows and looked at the frail and beautiful young man in front of him coldly.
Ning Jiayi, who had entered the pre-differentiation stage, now has a bit of Omega aura, but compared to the future, the current Ning Jiayi now seemed to be troubled by the chaos of pheromones, his delicate and beautiful face shrouded in thick sickness.
Coupled with the uncontrollable light cough in his throat, he looked even more slender, as if a gust of wind could knock him down instantly.
Su Liang could already sense the scrutiny of the passers-by that were looking at him and Ning Jiayi.
This made Su Liang feel a bit irritated.
“Ah’Zhao told me that you thought I deliberately ruined your things that day,” Ning Jiayi pursed his lips, and there was a hint of trembling in his voice. “I think that there must be a misunderstanding between us! Su Liang gege, I… cough, I really didn’t mean it. You’re a beta, so maybe you don’t know, but before the transformation into an Omega, the human body is really burdened, and I’ve been dizzy these past few days. I really didn’t notice the wrapping paper and the cards inside the box at all, I just wanted that kid not to cry.”
As he spoke, Ning Jiayi’s eyes started to turn slightly red.
“Su Liang gege, I beg you to forgive me, okay? I never thought about targeting you. I actually like being with you very much.”
“Oh.”
Su Liang replied vaguely.
He looked at the personal terminal in his hand and checked the time.
Ning Jiayi didn’t seem to notice Su Liang’s movements at all. He sniffed, and then made a gesture.
The driver of the luxurious hover car immediately opened the trunk of the car and took out a beautifully packaged box.
Su Liang glanced at it, and through the transparent protective cover, he could clearly see that it was the model he gave to Lu Zhizhao before – no, if you look carefully, the model in this box is the same as the model Su Liang bought. The frame is only similar in appearance, but the details are much more exquisite, and the color level was also slightly better.
Ning Jiayi clapped his hands, and the driver handed the box to Su Liang.
“Su Liang gege, I’ll replace the model for you. Don’t be angry anymore, okay?”
Behind the driver, Ning Jiayi pitifully spoke to Su Liang.
“This model is a prototype version made by Master Jia Shi, you see, there is also his personal signature on the base!” Ning Jiayi blinked and added earnestly, “This is the only handmade product in the world! It’s very precious. I bought it from another collector after a long time. If you give this to Ah’Zhao, he will be happy! Please! Please,Su Liang gege, don’t be angry—”
Before Ning Jiayi had finished speaking, Su Liang had already taken the box from the driver’s hand.
Even Ning Jiayi couldn’t help but get stuck at this moment.
There was a hint of astonishment in those watery eyes.
He really didn’t expect Su Liang to accept this model, and he didn’t expect Su Liang to meet with an expressionless face, looking at him very plainly, and then said:
“Alright, I forgive you.”
“That, that’s really good.”
Ning Jiayi answered dryly.
…. Actually, if it was the Su Liang from the previous life, he would probably forgive the ‘willful and clumsy’ young master of the Ning family with a truly gentle smile.
At least, he will not accept the model of the famous hand-made version so simply.
Ning Jiayi really didn’t lie about certain things. The models made by experts have always been expensive, otherwise they wouldn’t even be a limited edition.
This is indeed an extraordinarily expensive gift of apology. It is true that the former Su Liang would never accept it anyway. In his previous life, Su Liang had always been an outlier among the numerous young masters and young ladies in the Lu family. He had a gentle personality, but his self-esteem was damn high.

“Okay, you can go now.”
After Su Liang took the model, he casually clipped the model box under his arm, and then turned around.
Ning Jiayi widened his eyes involuntarily, and subconsciously, he tried to stop Su Liang.
“Su Liang gege, you-”
Su Liang suddenly dodged, dodging Ning Jiayi’s hand that was reaching towards him abruptly.
“You haven’t calmed down yet.”
When Ning Jiayi saw Su Liang move as if he was avoiding a cockroach, he became even more anxious.
Su Liang looked back at Ning Jiayi.
Involuntarily, he thought of the face he had during the wedding on the TV screen.
In fact, even he himself thought it was a bit incredible. The reason was until now, he had felt no strong dislike towards the other protagonist present at the wedding, even if the other person directly stole Lu Zhizhao.
But that doesn’t mean he was unaware of everything.
In the last life, after Lu Zhizhao left, the Lu family had actually removed all constraints and oppression on Su Liang.
However, the assets and files that Su Liang briefly recovered were quickly frozen again.
And it was more deadly, more meticulous, and without reason than before.
In addition, Su Liang got himself being accused by unbelievable haters inexplicably.
If it weren’t because of those unexplainable cases, Su Liang in the end didn’t even get the most basic medical treatment.
It was not until he found himself at the 48th district, the garbage dump that was considered hell on earth, that Su Liang learned very accidentally that it seemed that he had offended the Ning family to end up so miserable.
Thinking about that last marriage between the Lu and the Nings, many things became particularly clear.
What’s more…. After Lu Zhizhao left, Su Liang had repeatedly thought about why that person never came back.
As long as he wasn’t a fool. Ning Jiayi’s malice and disgust that were not cleverly concealed, could also be detected in such reflections.
After reliving his first life, Su Liang was grateful enough that his sister was still alive and that he had a second chance. He didn’t have too much energy and emotion to get entangled, suffer, not hate.
Ning Jiayi despised Su Liang.
It’s good, it just so happened that in this life, Su Liang really didn’t want to see Ning Jiayi.
“I remember that you always receive tutoring from the Lu family?”
Su Liang shook off Ning Jiayi’s hand, which was wet and cold, as if it was like a snake that had just come out of its hole.
Ning Jiayi didn’t seem to understand why they suddenly turned to such an irrelevant topic.
“Ah, that’s right, my body isn’t that good, that’s why…”
Ning Jiayi said timidly.
“No wonder.” Su Liang raised his hand and showed the timetable on his personal terminal in front of Ning Jiayi. “Master Ning, I’m really sorry, I’m just an ordinary student. If us ordinary students are late for class, we can get called out by the teacher.”
Ning Jiayi’s face became a little ugly.
The Xingchuan University that Su Liang went to is one of the best universities in the entire Earth Federation, and all those who can enter it are the best of the best.
In comparison, Ning Jiayi’s Lu family’s private education was indeed a bit lacking.
The weak and pitiful expression on Ning Jiayi’s face disappeared for a moment, and he couldn’t help glaring at Su Liang fiercely.
Su Liang was also looking at him.
It wasn’t until this moment that Ning Jiayi suddenly realized that Su Liang could have such an indifferent gaze again.
“You delayed me from going to class, Young Master Ning.”
Su Liang smiled coldly, glanced at Ning Jiayi, and then said word by word.
Naturally, Ning Jiayi didn’t miss the dark maliciousness and ridicule in Su Liang’s eyes.
Just like the fine thorns on miscanthus, it was usually as thin as nothing, but once it pierces the flesh, the fine thorns can make people restless and unbearable.
“What did you say?!”
Ning Jiayi subconsciously wanted to stop Su Liang, but Su Liang’s movements were much faster than Ning Jiayi.
Even with a huge and precious model in his hold, Su Liang ran as fast as a wild deer in the forest.
In just a few steps, his back faded from sight.
“Master, do you want to catch up?”
The driver from the Ning family bowed slightly and asked respectfully in Ning Jiayi’s ear.
“……”
After being silent for a while, Ning Jiayi turned gloomy and sat back in the car.
“No need.”
He spoke, his face ugly.
Almost as soon as he got into the car, his personal terminal vibrated.
It was a call request from Lu Zhizhao.
Ning Jiayi stared at the communication with his eyes down, he closed his eyes.
And when he opened his eyes again, the pitiful, weak, young white flower who appeared in front of Su Liang appeared again on the other end of the communication.
“Jiayi! Where have you been?! Your treatment in the treatment cabin this morning has not ended, why are you not in the hospital?!”
Lu Zhizhao’s anxious and tense face appeared on the channel.
He glared at Ning Jiayi sternly, and soon found that Ning Jiayi was actually in the suspension car: “Don’t tell me you really ran out! Do you still want your body!”
Lu Zhizhao’s voice increased again.
“I….. cough cough….. I…”
Ning Jiayi sniffed, and he tried his best to squeeze Lu Zhizhao a smile that looked uglier than crying.
“I didn’t mean to make you worry, I just wanted to apologise to Su Liang gege.”
Lu Zhizhao was instantly dumbfounded.
After a long pause, Lu Zhizhao continued to speak, but his voice became much dry.
“You can go to Su Liang after the treatment is over. What good will you do if you run out and evade treatment.”
“But you also said that Su Liang gege was really angry, and he thought I was targeting him… How could I still lie in the treatment room and receive treatment?! Ah’Zhao, you know, You and Su Liang gege are my best friends in the Lu family, and I don’t want to lose any of you.”
“But—”
“If you apologize for me, Su Liang gege will get angry. Of course I have to find him myself, that is….”
As Ning Jiayi was speaking, a secondary message was suddenly inserted into the terminal.
Ning Jiayi glanced at it from the corner of his eyes, focusing on it, and his expression stiffened for a moment.
Lu Zhizhao immediately noticed that something was wrong with Ning Jiayi, couldn’t help frowning and asked, “Jiayi, what’s wrong with you?”
Ning Jiayi lowered his eyelashes to hide all the emotions in his eyes, but the fear in his voice became stronger.
“I, I’m here to apologize. I specially gave Brother Su Liang a signed model made by a master. Brother Su Liang also accepted my apology. I, I thought he really forgave me, but… …but…I found out just now that he seems to have sold it immediately.”
Because Ning Jiayi had deliberately searched for information about the model before, and this was not an ordinary model, once there was a sale news on Star Online, the intelligent system would automatically push it to Ning Jiayi.
There were some tears in Ning Jiayi’s eyes.
“Ah’Zhao, I don’t know what to do. I don’t know what Su Liang gege wants from me. I really tried my best to apologize, but he doesn’t seem to be willing to forgive me no matter what. Him doing this, he must still be mad at me.”
“You’re thinking too much.”
From the other end of the communicator came Lu Zhizhao’s decisive voice.
“Xiao Liang is not that kind of person. He is a very simple person and has no serious thoughts. If he accepts your apology, it means that he has accepted your apology. As for him selling that thing, it should be purely because the model made by the master is too flashy. After all, I have always liked the model. You apologize to him, why did you give the model? He probably didn’t know how to tell you directly, so he did it. You don’t think too much.”
Ning Jiayi lowered his head, the boy’s fists were already clenched white in places that the communication cameras couldn’t see.
“Is it really like this? Then I’m relieved.”
Ning Jiayi raised his head and forced a smile.
Lu Zhizhao continued. “That is, a person like Xiao Liang would be so considerate, and changing someone would probably only make him more angry…”
Ning Jiayi’s figure suddenly swayed slightly, he bit his lip, and his breathing became obviously rapid.
He pressed one hand on his chest, gasping for breath, interrupting Lu Zhizhao’s chattering praise to Su Liang with difficulty: “Azhao, I’m sorry, I… I seem to be out of breath.”
After speaking, he suddenly fell towards the seat.
“Jiayi—” Lu Zhizhao shouted in panic. But this time, Ning Jiayi did not respond to him.
Ning Jiayi fainted because of physical discomfort
tn: dont worry, they’ll get worse

Honestly I can’t tell if Lu Zhizhao is pitiful and simply lacked the ability to fight for love/lacked the brains to see through his “perfect spouse” and help Su Liang when the Ning family was suppressing him or if he just….turned a blind eye? Didn’t care enough? Because unless there’s some protagonist halo we haven’t met yet, I doubt he truly fell in love with someone like Ning Jiayi.

Genuinely idek how to hate him because it’s like so pitiful? He’s either so stupidly childish or completely blind to everyone else’s emotions. Disrespectfully asking, where is your brain?
Same
Can’t wait for more, thanks for the chapter ^^💗

Ning Jiayi is okay at manipulation, so while it may seem obvious to us, if you aren’t looking, you won’t notice until it’s too late (like Su Liang).
Lu Zhizhao seems genuinely ignorant and unaware of people’s emotions overall, which makes this all hilarious…
Ning Jiaya schemes to hurt Su Liang, Su Liang returns the favor, Lu Zhizhao tries to be the mediator, unaware that the two both know EXACTLY what they’re doing!
😂
those getting impatient waiting for the ML to show up, rejoice! us readers will get to meet him in the next 2 chapters!
but i came here right after, so i still don’t know when su liang meets him…
thank you for the chapter.
Thanks for the chapter!
-Also, for properly manipulating people without them noticing, you need to be really good at observing people’s regular behaviors and guessing their thoughts and motivations. For example, to “show sincerity”, Ning Jiayi bought that hella expensive model car, knowing fully well that Su Liang wouldn’t take it because it’s so expensive. Under previous life circumstances, this would’ve acted as an additional push to accept the apology, especially since Ning Jiayi was even directly telling him about how expensive that thing was. HOWEVER, the apology didn’t work out, so now Ning Jiayi is trying to manipulate Lu Zhizhao into thinking worse of Su Liang by “not understanding why the apology wasn’t accepted” and “acting guilty” and even the passing out — which honestly was probably because Lu Zhizhao was defending Su Liang too much — can be used to show how “inconsiderate” Su Liang is.Meanwhile, Lu Zhizhao is obviously looking at things through tinted glasses, though I have to say, him saying Su Liang is simple and has no serious thoughts comes across as rude. It makes me wonder if he is also a two-face who knows how to act silly to make other people like him. Though he might also be an exemplary display of the “looking but not seeing” phenomenon where people were obviously looking, but didn’t gain any substantial amount of information through truly seeing what was happening.Now for Su Liang: His reaction this chapter was quite interesting. Ning Jiayi is indirectly responsible for Su Liang’s death, and it is obvious he has always despised Su Liang, probably because Lu Zhizhao likes Su Liang romantically and not Ning Jiayi. And Su Liang’s reaction to the apology: Expressionless, largely unresponsive and more rejecting than welcoming. This means that while talking, his mind is working out how to deal with this situation, what the most appropriate response is to throw Ning Jiayi off. Showing the timetable of his very prestigious school also showed that Ning Jiayi might hate Su Liang so much because he feels indignant about Su Liang being “superior” than him, the young master, which is a twisted and weird mindset no one has to understand. Also, the running away at the end… I’ve also run away from conversations, and it’s always been because I was extremely uncomfortable. And it’s actually the primal brain’s fight, flight or play dead response, which is triggered by the adrenaline produced in so-perceived danger situations that “potentially pose a threat to one’s life”. In short, a very natural reaction.
Thanks for reading my little analysis, and thank you for this chapter!
amazing analysis! makes me wonder how come Ning Jiayi acts like that for such a young age, maybe he’s also a transmigrator? But it’s still not enough to feel sorry for him (yet?)
Also, you don’t have to feel sorry for him. There are many people with emotional problems, and those who hurt others because of it do not deserve pity or sympathy, even if their reasons are truly heartbreaking.
And thank you for liking my analysis! ❤
tn’s note makes me feel so relieved 🤤
Thank you very much!♡♡♡♡
He is a very great actor…
Thank You for the new chapter ♡ฅ(ᐤˊ꒳ฅˋᐤ)
Maybe this LZ truly loved him but maybe he’s also a spineless alpha. Alpha’s supposed to be the best(that’s what I’ve always read). Well since the past life was narrated from the MC”s POV so we wont know what exactly happened to LZ. Why he married his fiancée over his sweetheart whom he tried to live with. Ay, but this omega is truly…He should polish his acting in order to outwit with the MC thus time. Or maybe he will be the reason why MC was sent to hidden boss alpha….🤔
Thanks for the update 🤣❤️
Ugh the backbiting bitchiness is giving me goosebumps 😡🥴🥴🤢
He is hilariously desperate for attention. Kskskskskksks pathetic
Thank you for the chapter 🤍
My guess is that LZ a “grass is greener” person – while things are fresh and happy and he’s newly in love everything is fine, but as soon as things get a little awkward or the one he’s with does something less than ‘perfect’ he immediately starts remembering how good the other person was…
Ahm, this kind of character really touch all the negative emotions in my mind. I’m hoping that Su Liang will leave the Lu family immediately or meet his pair. Ughhh
I just wanna know if that Zhao guy knew about it in the first life
Such a pitiful young master, how dear that commoner sell his present. I feel soooo sorry. 🤭😏
shet that guy! feels like hes two timing and making a harem out of the two of them.
Ah. I don’t want you dying that easily, Jiayi. you need to suffer hundred, no, million times more.
Hopefully he never wakes up :3
Woah, Ning b*tch Jiayi’s so good at acting he’ll definitely win great awards.
LOL DID NJY SERIOUSLY LOST IT OVER LZZ PRAISING SL
Le sigh, hope the MC keeps the money yo~
