Listening to Chris's gleaming eyes as she spoke, Jiang Si awkwardly took a sip of her coffee.
She had a feeling that she had led Chris into a trap!
Chris, however, didn't think so; instead, she looked like a little fangirl.
"Anyway, I think you're absolutely right, and those words really resonate with me!"
"Besides, don't you Chinese have a saying, 'It's easy for a man to pursue a woman, but easy for a woman to pursue a man,'"
"I just want to try one more time, as if it's my last chance."
"No matter the outcome, at least I tried my best, so I won't have any regrets later."
Chris already knows Chi Heng's true identity.
She also knew that Chi Heng had finally agreed to cooperate with her.
The purpose was to lower his mother's guard so that he could get the list from her.
Her role was to assist him, using her identity and connections to cover for him.
When necessary, she can also be his shield.
Chi Heng was well aware that even without Chris, other women would appear.
As a result, the two parties reached a cooperation agreement.
After it's done, they'll try to date for a year.
"If I can warm his heart within a year, we will return to Gaul and start a new life after this is over."
At this point, Chris said in a reckless tone, "If he still doesn't have feelings for me a year from now, then forget it."
As for whether she would suffer a loss or not, that was no longer within her consideration.
Being able to help him would be a way of fulfilling her feelings of affection over the past few years.
"A bet is a bet," as Jiang Si once said.
She kept it in her heart.
“Not necessarily,” Jiang Si suddenly said.
Chris was somewhat confused. "What do you mean, 'not necessarily'?"
“I told you you might not lose.” Jiang Si smiled and took another sip of coffee.
That day in the hospital ward.
When she mentioned Chris's name.
Chi Heng made a very obvious move; he subconsciously glanced in the direction of the door.
Chris didn't quite understand, and blinked blankly, "What does this have to do with whether I lose or not?"
"What do you think?" Jiang Si smiled. "That day, when someone heard that he looked unwell, didn't they instinctively run away?"
A person's thoughts may be faked, but subconscious behavior is the hardest to control and also the most revealing of their true feelings.
"Oh! I get it!" Chris exclaimed excitedly.
No wonder the books say that even the most virtuous woman can be swayed by a persistent suitor!
The saying "gender equality" can also be interpreted as "even a strong man can be swayed by a persistent woman!"
"No, I can't have lunch with you." Chris was clearly getting impatient; she decided to go find Chi Heng later.
Jiang Si hadn't planned to have lunch with her either, but—
"Have you been spending every day with him lately?"
“Yes.” Chris nodded.
They worked in the same unit, so naturally they saw each other every day.
Moreover, they are currently engaged, and they spend all their free time together.
Of course, this was Chris's unilateral action.
She didn't even spare the weekends.
I would go to the courtyard house to see him whenever I had free time.
She would accompany Chi Heng when he went to the hospital for a follow-up examination.
In short, don't miss any opportunity to enhance your relationship.
Speaking of this, Chris remembered something: "I even made plans with him to climb the Great Wall in the suburbs next week."
Jiang Si listened with a knowing look on her face.
People in the throes of new love are like that.
They wished they could give their whole heart to the other person.
But that alone doesn't seem to work.
Jiang Si suggested, "After we come back from visiting the Great Wall, I advise you to give him the cold shoulder for a while."
"Why? Shouldn't we strike while the iron is hot and press on in one fell swoop?"
Chris can now speak eloquently and logically about these profound sayings from China.
"That's true, but you also need to give him some time to think and react."
Jiang Si didn't know how to explain it to her in a way that would make her understand the subtle psychology behind this power struggle between men and women, so she could only use the simplest analogy.
Even the best dish will get boring if you eat it every day, at every meal, right?
"No...not greasy at all." Chris has been eating roast duck for almost a month now.
Thinking about it now, I still crave it terribly.
Jiang Si sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation. How come she never realized this person was such a glutton before!
"In short, just remember one thing: rushing things is not a good business."
Jiang Si said, "Let the kite go. Relationships are actually the same as flying a kite. You have to be tight when you need to be tight, and you have to be loose when you need to be loose."
"If you always pull the string too hard, the kite will not only not fly high, but it will also easily crash."
"If you loosen the string a little and give it some space, it can fly higher and farther."
Of course, none of these are the main points. The main point is, "You have to let it know that no matter how high it flies, the string is always in your hand."
Chris's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this.
"Alright then, I'll give it a try!"
Jiang Si originally thought that her generous sharing of knowledge would at least help her win the heart of a handsome man, if not immediately, and take their relationship to the next level.
To everyone's surprise, the next news was that Chris was hospitalized.
When Jiang Si received the news, she was stunned. She hung up the phone and rushed to the hospital.
In the ward, Chris's hands and legs were wrapped in bandages.
Coupled with his bruised and swollen face, the scene was simply too beautiful.
Are you alright?
