Chapter 405: Flirting in the arms of the stubborn school hunk (23)
"A man who uses people who like him to gain the favor of people he likes is not a man at all." Ruan Qin said with a solemn expression.
He was never one to speak ill of others behind their backs, but Gu Jin's behavior really made him angry.
Shen Ci raised his hand to cover his mouth to hide his smile.
Indeed, in Shen Ci's opinion, in the original plot, Gu Jin used Jiang Tong to make Mu Yu jealous and develop possessiveness towards him, which was not a manly behavior at all.
In Shen Ci's opinion, Jiang Tong's tragedy was mostly caused by Gu Jin, and Mu Yu was the second one who made her tragedy worse.
But Jiang Tong hated Mu Yu, but not Gu Jin.
It’s not that Shen Ci thinks that Jiang Tong shouldn’t hate Mu Yu. What Mu Yu did to Jiang Tong also hurt her.
But isn't Gu Jin hateful? But Jiang Tong not only doesn't hate him, but likes Gu Jin.
If this was just a setting, Shen Ci wouldn't say anything, but it's not just a setting, Jiang Tong really likes Gu Jin.
Even if I become the heroine, I still want to be with Gu Jin.
Shen Ci couldn't explain whether it was because of the novel, why both the male protagonist and the female supporting role were so obsessed with the same thing.
"Yeah, he's not a man." Shen Ci said.
Ruan Qin listened to her words of agreement and was puzzled: "You..."
"I?"
"Why do you agree with me?"
Shen Ci blinked: "Why can't I agree with you?"
"Don't you like Gu Jin?" Ruan Qin asked.
"Just because I like him, I can't agree with you. Is he not a man? He uses people who like him to gain the favor of people he likes. He is indeed not a man. Why can't I agree with him?" Shen Ci asked seriously.
"Since... you understand everything, why do you still like him?" Ruan Qin was full of confusion.
Shen Ci also wanted to ask this question.
Ask Jiang Tong.
But in the face of Ruan Qin's doubts, she could only give a random explanation: "Do I need a reason to like someone?"
Ruan Qin was stunned. To like someone... you really don't need a reason.
We should like each other regardless of whether the other person is good or bad.
He pursed his lips, and the joy that had surged in his heart dissipated a lot.
If the other person likes Gu Jin for some reason, then he can do better than Gu Jin to win her favor.
However, Shen Ci liked Gu Jin for absolutely no reason.
This made Ruan Qin doubt himself. Could he win her favor by working hard?
But after thinking this, he realized that he was thinking this way.
If you like someone, it doesn't necessarily mean that you will be liked by that person.
Originally, liking someone is just one's own business.
If the other person happens to like you, that is the best luck.
There is nothing wrong in pursuing someone, but it is too selfish to ask the other person to like you just because you like them.
Ruan Qin really wants to be a selfish person, but... he is not.
Moreover, he didn't want the other party to show an unhappy expression on his face because of his coercion.
"What's wrong with you?" Shen Ci looked at his somewhat lonely expression, moved closer to him and asked.
Ruan Qin looked at her face that suddenly approached, and was startled. Her ears turned red and she quickly retreated: "You..."
"Me?" Shen Ci looked at Ruan Qin with an expression of 'what did I do again'.
"You can't do this." Ruan Qin said.
"What?" Shen Ci was puzzled.
"Stay, stay so close to me..." Ruan Qin lowered his head slightly, saying with a flashing look in his eyes.
"Why?" Shen Ci made an even more puzzled expression.
"There's no reason. Not only you should not stay so close to me, but other boys as well!" Ruan Qin said.
"Oh..." Shen Ci nodded, and the expression on her face suddenly became meaningful, "You like me!" she said affirmatively.
She suddenly said something that made Ruan Qin blush: "You! You! What are you talking about!"
"I told you that you like me." Shen Ci said with a smile.
Ruan Qin looked up at her, and suddenly felt angry when he saw her calm expression.
He pursed his lips and said, "Yes, I like you."
So...stay away from me. If he gets this close, he won't be able to control his emotions and heartbeat...
"How much do you like me?" Shen Ci not only did not move away from him, but moved closer and asked him.
"What...what?" Ruan Qin looked into Shen Ci's eyes from a close distance and asked in surprise.
Shen Ci raised her hand and pinched his red ear: "I say, how much do you like me?"
"Why...why...are you asking that?" Ruan Qin stuttered.
"Because I'm trying to determine how much you like me, and then think about whether I should give you a chance." Shen Ci said with a smile.
"Opportunity?" Ruan Qin murmured.
"Well, I like my chance." Shen Ci said this word by word.
She said it calmly, but when Ruan Qin heard this, he almost exploded.
Countless emotions spread in his heart, joy, surprise, etc.
It was so sudden that he came to his senses and stared at Shen Ci blankly.
Shen Ci looked at his expression and thought he was very cute. She ran her hand along the outline of his ear and pinched his earlobe.
Her movements were slow and seductive.
Ruan Qin felt his whole body burning hot, so hot that he could hardly breathe.
“You…you…”
"Me? Me?"
Ruan Qin: "Are you serious?"
"Of course I'm serious." Shen Ci nodded.
"But you, don't you like Gu Jin?" Ruan Qin asked.
"Are you a fool?" Shen Ci asked, "You also know that he is not someone worth liking, so why can't I try to like someone else to get rid of my love for him?"
Ruan Qin opened her mouth and wanted to say that this was not a good thing, at least not a good thing for her.
It would be very difficult for her if she doesn't fall in love with him later, so it's not good.
But in the end, these words were never uttered, because his selfishness and egoism prevented him from saying them.
Just... let him be selfish for a moment. How could he refuse when the person he likes says such words to him?
He said this in his heart.
But when he opened his mouth again, he said: "Sorry, I can't agree."
"Why? Don't you like me?" Shen Ci frowned.
If the system were here, it would probably say with gloating that the host finally failed.
"It's not fair." Ruan Qin said.
"Do you think it's unfair to you that I like someone else?" Shen Ci asked.
Ruan Qin shook his head: "It's unfair to you. Liking you is my own business. You agreed to be with me to satisfy my liking. You have no obligation to agree to be with me just because I like you."
Shen Ci stared at him for a while, then opened her lips helplessly: "You..." Are you stupid, she wanted to say.
Ruan Qin guessed what she was going to say and spoke first: "I'm not stupid, I just want us to confirm our relationship under better circumstances. You like me and I like you too."
