Chapter 227 She needs the courage to take the first step



After waiting for an unknown amount of time, Su Chuanlin was getting tired and still hadn't seen anyone, so he made a phone call to his assistant to check.

I received a reply from my assistant within minutes.

It turns out I've always been at home.

Su Chuanlin couldn't help but feel a little confused. Sheng Sheng clearly said they didn't talk about anything. Could it be that he had really pushed her too hard?

Su Chuanlin scratched his head in frustration. Didn't I say I would give him a chance?

He recently consulted many people about how to pursue someone.

The answers were varied, but none of them were useful.

In his view, pursuing something with sincerity, action, money, and time is the only way to truly have hope.

Not only that, he also wanted to stick by her side all day long. Isn't it normal for a man in his mid-twenties to cling to a nineteen-year-old girl?

Thinking this, Su Chuanlin opened the car door and got out, intending to go upstairs, but then stopped.

He wanted to go up, but he didn't dare to. He couldn't figure out what Xiang Niannian was thinking, and he was afraid that she would be unhappy if he went up.

For the first time, Su Chuanlin felt like a coward. Just as he was about to get into the car and leave, he suddenly remembered something Nan Sheng had said to him.

"Second brother, you need to be thick-skinned to find a wife,"

So, Su Chuanlin got back into the car and took the elevator upstairs without any hesitation.

At worst, I'll be kicked out, and then I'll be unhappy.

Then he would coax people to death and pamper them to the core.

This was Su Chuanlin's first time coming up here. He stood at Xiang Niannian's door, looked around for a long time but couldn't find the doorbell, so he knocked on the door.

After knocking for a long time without any response, the knocking attracted the attention of the neighbors next door.

He had just returned home after visiting Li Xiaomei at the hospital, wanting to get some sleep so he could go to work the next day. Not long after lying down, he heard a thumping sound outside.

The noise hadn't stopped for a while. Just as I was about to open the door and curse the national treasure, I saw Su Chuanlin, dressed in a black suit, leaning against the wall in front of Xiang Niannian's house.

I was dressed casually this morning, but now I've changed into a business suit.

I have to say, Su Chuanlin is quite handsome.

If he were Xiang Niannian, he would immediately surrender, throw himself into Su Chuanlin's arms, and then hug him tightly around the thighs and waist.

"No, Young Master Su, isn't it late at night now?"

As Wang Wentao spoke, his eyes glanced intentionally or unintentionally at Xiang Niannian's house.

"Um."

“…” Wang Wentao.

Hmm, this looks so much like Boss Han.

Are all handsome guys like this?

"What are you doing here so late at night? My deskmate is probably already asleep."

"She's been sleeping since the afternoon."

Su Chuanlin was a little worried, so he didn't reply to the messages or answer the phone.

Even if he was asleep, he knocked on the door for so long, but there was still no response.

"And then what? You don't mean you're going to break in and see what's going on, do you?" Wang Wentao was wearing shorts and flip-flops even in the dead of winter.

Su Chuanlin didn't speak, but raised an eyebrow and looked into the distance.

Wang Wentao took one look and realized that this was their landlord.

"I won't break in; I'll go in openly and honestly."

"Young Master Su! I apologize, I didn't know you were coming, so I misspoke."

The male landlord hurriedly bowed and scraped when he saw Su Chuanlin.

He was just eating when he heard someone inexplicably tell him to bring the keys up. He replied, "Are you my boss?" and it turned out that the person really was his boss.

Although he is the landlord, his property was recently acquired by the Su family and purchased for a huge sum of money. In short, he is now working for the Su family.

He now saw Su Chuanlin standing in front of a tenant's door, and he remembered that the tenant was a girl.

"key."

Su Chuanlin stretched out his hand, but he only asked someone to bring the key; he didn't intend for him to open the door to his "future wife's" house.

"Alright, alright, Second Young Master Su, please."

The landlord took out the keys and handed them over with both hands.

This respectful demeanor stunned Wang Wentao, who was standing to the side.

He remembered that the last time he forgot his keys, he went to the landlord and was first scolded and lectured by the landlord. He sat there being nagged for more than an hour before he was able to get the keys and open the door.

The difference in attitude is like night and day.

Well, at this moment, the seed of making money through hard work had been planted in Wang Wentao's heart.

"Landlord, your preferential treatment is too obvious! I'm still Su Shao's friend." Wang Wentao stepped forward, trying to touch Su Chuanlin's shoulder.

Unexpectedly, Su Chuanlin turned around to open the door, and he almost fell to the ground.

"Yes, yes, I'm so sorry, Mr. Wang. If I had known you were Su Ershao's friend, I wouldn't have been so blind." The landlord said, bowing respectfully.

The landlord was a smart man; he didn't see Su Chuanlin refute Wang Wentao's words and his attitude immediately changed.

"!!!" Money really does make the world go round.

"You can leave now."

Su Chuanlin ignored them, inserted the key into the lock, and turned to speak to the two of them.

The landlord naturally agreed to whatever Su Chuanlin said, and besides, he didn't want to stay any longer, so he simply said "okay" and left.

Wang Wentao was left looking at Su Chuanlin.

Wang Wentao's playful expression vanished, replaced by a serious and earnest look: "Su Chuanlin."

"Okay, what is it?" Su Chuanlin took the key back and held it in his hand.

"If you truly love Xiang Niannian, I urge you to treat her seriously. Or if you feel your sincerity isn't enough to last, then I hope you'll give up as soon as possible."

You know more or less about Xiang Niannian's family situation; she lacks a sense of security. In this regard, she needs a lot of patience from others. She needs time, and even more so, courage.

This was the first time Wang Wentao had ever acted so manly.

Su Chuanlin did not refute Wang Wentao's words, but nodded. In fact, every point Wang Wentao made was correct, and Xiang Niannian was exactly like that now.

She needed courage; she didn't dare take the first step.

"I truly mean it, there was no deception involved." Su Chuanlin offered no flowery words or exaggerated promises.

There's no use saying more now; the only way to prove yourself is through actions.

At the same time, he was very glad that the little rabbit had people around her who genuinely cared about her.

"Okay, that's fine. I might be a bit talkative, but Xiang Niannian and I grew up together and were always deskmates. I treat her like my little sister and hope she's doing well."

Her life had just begun, but she had already tasted all the bitterness and sweetness, but not the sweetness.

After saying that, Wang Wentao went into his home without waiting for Su Chuanlin's reply.

Upon hearing Wang Wentao's words, Su Chuanlin tightened his grip, opened the door without hesitation, and then closed it.

It was still pitch black inside.

"Xiang Niannian?"

Su Chuanlin didn't go directly into the bedroom, but called out from outside, but there was no response.

Knowing that he was shouting very loudly, Su Chuanlin's heart tightened, he turned on the light and quickly went inside.
