Chapter 378 It’s really urgent!

"Director Li!" Shen Ci turned and gave Li Jianguo a look, indicating that he should go with her first.

Li Jianguo looked at the woman with an indescribably complicated expression, but in the end he ignored her pitiful and pleading appearance and left the restaurant with Shen Ci.

When I went outside and felt the wind, I suddenly felt much more awake.

"Why……"

All I could hear was Li Jianguo sighing silently, and everything was said without words.

Shen Ci was also speechless. Li Jianguo was already pitiful enough, but he had to deal with such a thing.

After hesitating for a moment, she stepped forward and gently comforted him, "Don't sigh. What happened today is purely due to your bad luck. It's just an isolated case. You will meet the right person in the future."

She was also worried that Li Jianguo would have some kind of shadow on his remarriage because of today's incident. In fact, his mother's worry was right. As he had a rare disease, he still needed someone to be with him. It would not be safe to be alone after all.

Li Jianguo looked at Chen Ci and shook his head gently: "It's bad luck to have this happen, but fortunately I'm lucky enough to have you there. If it weren't for you, I would be doomed to pay for my own blindness today."

As he spoke, he felt annoyed and blamed himself, saying, "I was also confused. Now that I think about it, what happened just now was full of flaws, and I didn't see any of them."

Because all the attention was on that woman.

He was embarrassed to say the second half of the sentence, but Shen Ci understood it.

"It's easy to be fooled by someone involved." Chen Ci consoled him. "That woman just now had a nice appearance and temperament, so it's understandable that your mind wandered because of her. Someone who could do such a thing must be quite capable. If it wasn't a beauty like this, who would be so easily fooled? And willingly pay for it?"

"Everyone has a love for beauty. You don't have to feel ashamed of it. We are all the same."

Shen Ci's serious look made Li Jianguo laugh: "You are trying to reason with me. Are you the teacher or am I the teacher?"

"You are a teacher, but teachers can sometimes be bewitched."

"Thank you, and thank you to your boyfriend too." Li Jianguo thanked him sincerely: "I can't even remember how many times you've helped me. I feel really sorry for you."

Shen Ci rolled her eyes when she heard this: "I'm not someone who meddles in other people's affairs. You've been helping and taking care of me since I entered HKUST. Director Li, you're like a family member in my heart. This is my sincere words."

Li Jianguo felt a little embarrassed when he heard Shen Ci say this, but he was very happy in his heart.

"Don't worry, what happened today is a secret. I won't tell anyone. But next time you go on a blind date, remember to keep your eyes open. If you feel something is wrong, don't go ahead and do it anyway. I think if I didn't stop you today, you would really pay. How much is your monthly salary? Are you willing to pay for such an expensive meal?"

Li Jianguo smiled awkwardly and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I felt dizzy today. I won't go out for a blind date next time."

"That's not the case. If you find someone suitable, you can still meet them. But you can be more proactive. For the first meeting, choose a restaurant you've been to before and be more careful."

"I understand."

After returning to school, Chen Ci and Li Jianguo separated at the school gate. She went straight back to the dormitory, thinking that if Lian Xing hadn't left yet, she would accompany her to get a manicure.

As a result, when I walked downstairs to the dormitory building, I saw Gu Lianxing and Jiang Lingchuan standing under a tree and talking from a distance.

She paused, blinked inexplicably, but did not move forward to avoid disturbing the two people.

Under the tree, Gu Lianxing lowered her head and stared at the tip of her shoes in a daze. She had just mustered up the courage to explain her words clearly, hoping that Jiang Lingchuan would listen.

Jiang Lingchuan looked at her in silence for a long time, until Gu Lianxing raised her head again and said, "I've finished what I want to say. If you don't have anything else to say, then I'll leave first."

Jiang Lingchuan then said, "I just don't understand."

"What don't you understand?"

"I don't understand whether you mind my relationship with other girls, or you just want me to stay away from you."

"Neither!" Gu Lianxing frowned and thought to herself, "You completely misunderstood what I meant. We are not children anymore. We can no longer treat each other without a sense of propriety like we did when we were little. Whether it's for you or for me, we are still friends, but you are you and I am me, understand?"

Jiang Lingchuan understood, but he just didn't want to make himself understand.

He shook his head. "I don't understand."

He is pretending to be confused!

"Forget it if you don't understand. You don't have to understand. Just do it."

Lian Xing turned around and was about to leave, but Jiang Lingchuan grabbed her forearm.

She looked at Jiang Lingchuan's hand and looked up at him in confusion: "What are you doing? This is downstairs in the dormitory!"

Jiang Lingchuan quickly let go of his hand, fearing that his actions would bring rumors and trouble to Lian Xing.

"sorry."

Looking at his humble appearance, Lian Xing felt a little bit of pity in her heart, but she did this today for his own good.

He is already twenty years old and it is time for him to fall in love. What's the point of me standing in the way?

So she softened her tone and said as gently as possible: "I'm not ignoring you, I just want to widen the distance between us. We are still friends."

"You really need to go back and think carefully about what I said and reconsider our relationship, okay?"

Jiang Lingchuan pursed his thin lips, and although his handsome facial features were resisting, he still nodded.

Seeing this, Gu Lianxing sighed softly, then turned around and went back to the dormitory building.

Jiang Lingchuan stood still. He had been standing there for several hours. Shen Ci, who was watching from a distance, couldn't help but sigh. With such amazing perseverance, this kid would succeed in everything he did in the future.

But she was really anxious...

"Why don't you dare say it if you like it?"

Jiang Lingchuan was startled by Shen Ci's sudden appearance.

"Student Chen Ci..."

He dodged his gaze guiltily, but it couldn't escape Chen Ci's eyes. She curled her lips and said, "Whether it succeeds or not, tell Lian Xing your feelings first!"

Jiang Lingchuan remained silent.

Shen Ci looked at him and asked tentatively, "Are you afraid of being rejected?"

Jiang Lingchuan paused for a moment, then nodded.

When facing Gu Lianxing, he couldn't help but feel "unworthy"!

In every aspect, he knew that he was very different from Gu Lianxing, and he was not the type she would like. It was because of this clear awareness that he was reluctant to speak.

Jiang Lingchuan whispered, "Lian Xing has only ever had a crush on Jiang Cheng since she was little. She likes his elegance, his knowledge, and his wit and humor, but I don't have any of those. Jiang Cheng and I have nothing in common."

So he just assumed that he didn't have any of the qualities that Gu Lianxing liked.

Shen Ci said, "It's not completely absent."

Jiang Lingchuan raised his head when he heard that.

Then I heard Shen Ci blurt out: "You all have the surname Jiang!"
