Why did Chen Tinghan feel guilty? He didn't want to dig deep into his heart, but he was just a coward, not an idiot. How could he be like the clueless male protagonist in the animation, completely unaware of the girl's feelings, getting close to her and having no reaction? That was impotence, not Yasashi.
But if you say he is cowardly, then he is indeed a coward. Chen Tinghan considers himself a bastard with personality defects. He has never had a serious and lasting relationship in his two lifetimes. He is immersed in his own paranoia all the time and has betrayed everything.
In this life, he vowed to bring happiness to every girl, but which girl?
Did Wang Jinling have feelings for him? He believed she did, not to mention Li Zishan. No one was blind, and Lin Xueyan was the easiest to avoid. After all, in his eyes, the girl's feelings for him were simply because of his chance "heroic rescue" and out of gratitude. Perhaps he had become the Prince Charming in her fantasy.
Such enthusiasm will eventually fade away...
Chen Tinghan couldn't make up his mind. Although escaping was shameful, it was useful. At least before he made up his mind, he couldn't die here and had to hold on.
If he had known this would happen, he would never have come to a place where the second generation gathered. If he hadn't heard from Lin Xueyan that Li Feiche and Pei Cheng'an would come today, he would never have come to a place where the second generation gathered.
Chen Tinghan whispered to Xu Jingwen, "Brother, you have to hold on."
"Of course, even though you're a piece of shit, I'm loyal," Xu Jingwen grinned and said, "I'd risk my life for a brother!"
Meanwhile, Lin Xueyan didn't care about the mess in his mind. She pouted, looking unhappy. She remembered that she had clearly instructed her family's nanny in the compound to promptly guide Chen Tinghan to a seat next to her.
As a result, he sat down next to him and chatted with that damn Xu Jingwen.
But it doesn't matter, she has also thought about what to do if this happens.
Lin Xueyan brought a clean bowl and stared at the soup that was about to be turned over. The person next to her was very considerate and pressed the turntable. When she finished making the soup, before the boy could say anything, Lin Xueyan stood up, holding the prepared soup and brought it to Chen Tinghan.
Then she leaned close to Chen Tinghan's ear and whispered, "Although Haibai Winter Melon Soup isn't a rare dish, I just wanted to serve it to you myself."
Without waiting for his answer, the girl took small steps back to her seat.
Not only the guests at this table, but also the guests at other tables cast their eyes over, and the atmosphere on the scene fell into an indescribable weirdness. Everyone knew Lin Xueyan, because people actually knew that in today's compound, Mrs. Lin, represented by the mother's surname that the girl took, had the most say.
Lin Xueyan is the daughter of her family, and her behavior, especially within the compound, is intriguing.
On the other side, Li Zishan slammed the chopsticks down with a clang, but there was no expression on his face.
Chen Tinghan was already sweating. He urged Xu Jingwen again: "Brother, hold on!"
Xu Jingwen said calmly: "Don't worry."
Then he saw Li Zishan stand up and walk over, looking straight at him. Not only that, his girlfriend, who was sitting across from him, also looked at him unfriendlyly.
"Ouch." Xu Jingwen suddenly covered his stomach and stood up and said, "Damn, I don't know what happened, my stomach suddenly hurts. I'm going to the bathroom. You guys eat first."
Then he ran away, holding his stomach.
You, Xu Jingwen, are not a good person either! Chen Tinghan's brows knitted together in pain.
"You use my bowl." Wu Jiaju even considerately swapped his bowl with Xu Jingwen's, adding pointedly, "Some people just deserve to be punished."
Chen Tinghan grinned awkwardly.
The atmosphere on the scene became even weirder. The dining table seemed to be divided into two worlds. On one side, centered around Chen Tinghan, there was a hell of jealousy and hostility. The jealousy came not only from girls, but also from men. Two equally beautiful girls were circling around one person. It was hard to say how other people would feel.
Even Lian Heyu, who was good at smoothing things over and was worldly-wise, fell silent and gave Chen Tinghan a thumbs-up.
This guy is really awesome. He played this trick with two other girls in front of Miss Wang, who was rumored to have an affair with her.
The other of the two worlds is naturally centered on Wang Jinling.
They were chatting, talking about school, grades, and famous books.
Just like what Chen Tinghan and Wang Jinling talked about last time in the bookstore on Yanshan Old Street, the names of some books are indeed high-frequency words. They are now talking about Haruki Murakami's famous work about youth, sex and death.
In the past, it was hard for Chen Tinghan to imagine that a group of high school students who couldn’t even understand textbooks would like to read "No Longer Human". They were in their youth but read a work that destroyed the word "youth" in a deconstructive way, and thought they understood it and sighed.
Chen Tinghan, judging others by his own experience, is not afraid of being laughed at. What was he paying attention to when he read this book? He was paying attention to the handicrafts that the heroine did for the hero. So he thought that other people would read it in the same way and would not remember the social background and literary soil of the neighboring country after finishing it.
Now, Chen Tinghan's perspective is completely different from before. Books are like a mirror placed on the road. Sometimes it reflects a blue sky, sometimes it reflects a muddy road. The truth depends on the person looking in the mirror. Even for a student with little experience, what he sees is not a blank slate, but a meaningful one. *Note
They used what they saw and read as topics for conversation with Wang Jinling, which in itself was not wrong.
