Chapter 17 Friends



"Wenmo..."

"Uh-huh?"

He stretched and looked back. Xia Lian had sat back down sometime earlier, but her eyes held a hint of disappointment as she fiddled with her fingers.

“Wen Mo clearly knows what I mean…”

She pursed her lips and gently turned her face away, not wanting Wen Mo to see her current expression.

Wen Mo leaned back in his chair, which he pulled forward slightly so that he could see Xia Lian's face.

At that moment, she gently puffed out her lips, her beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her disappointed eyes drooped down.

"What, you really don't want to go out with me?" He grinned slightly, feigning a hurt expression.

"No……!"

Xia Lian secretly glanced at Wen Mo a few times, and when she saw his disappointed expression, she quickly turned her face back, her voice rising slightly in her haste.

"I want to go out with Wenmo... but..." She tugged at Wenmo's sleeve, lowered her head, and couldn't say the next sentence. Her stammering appearance made her seem a little awkward, but more than that, she was adorable.

But I don't want to interfere with what Wenmo and his friends are doing...

She kept these words to herself, because Xia Lian was afraid that saying them would make her seem pretentious.

Wen Mo moved closer, and the distance between them shortened considerably as he got closer.

He understood everything Xia Lian wanted to say.

"I promised to go shopping for clothes with you, so I can't go back on my word, right?" His eyes were serious, and his previous playful demeanor vanished.

"But... Wen Mohe, my friend..."

Before she could finish speaking, Xia Lian felt a familiar sensation on her head.

Wenmo gently stroked her head.

For some unknown reason, Xia Lian would obediently shut her mouth and not say a word whenever her head was touched.

"The reason we call each other friends is because we have a very good relationship, right?"

"If a friendship is strained by one or two small things, then it is definitely not going to last."

If the relationship between ordinary friends is based on "sorry" and "thank you," then the best way to describe a pair of true friends is simply "son" and "dad."

"So, do you understand now? My relationship with him isn't that fragile."

After saying that, he even demonstrated the parent-child bond between him and Qin Zhou on the spot.

Mo: How has our relationship been all these years?

"Useless Qin'er: Deep Father-Son Bond"

"Got it?"

Wenmo handed over the phone.

"I understand..." Xia Lian looked at her phone, raised her eyes slightly, and nodded thoughtfully. "You two are father and son."

...

"That's one way to understand it!"

But I must be the father.
