"I'm asking you a question, why aren't you answering?"
Wang Siyu pouted coquettishly, her face full of dissatisfaction as she questioned him. Her big, watery eyes were fixed on Chen Ze opposite her, as if she wanted to get an answer from him.
Chen Ze frowned slightly, and after a long silence, he finally spoke slowly:
"Siyu, actually... I have to admit, I do have a bit of a crush on you, and I really like girls like you who are cheerful, lively, and adorable. It's just... sigh, I feel like the gap between us is just too big, and I'm afraid it'll be hard for us to stay together in the end!"
After saying this, Chen Ze sighed softly, his eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and confusion.
Wang Siyu, sitting opposite him, was stunned, as if struck by lightning.
After a long while, she came to her senses and asked in a slightly trembling voice, "Why? Is it just because of those external conditions?"
Chen Ze shook his head and continued to explain, "It's not just for these reasons. I think even if we were to be together now regardless of everything, we would inevitably encounter various problems and difficulties in the future."
"And I bet your family won't approve of our relationship. If they forcefully interfere, it will only cause us both a lot of pain. So I think it's better not to start a relationship that has no future, so as to avoid hurting each other."
Hearing this, Wang Siyu's eyes gradually welled up with tears. She lowered her head, stirring her coffee cup with her small hands, her mind filled with countless thoughts.
She recalled the things her parents often told her, always advising her to find a boyfriend who was a good match for her, otherwise her family would never agree.
But now, she has finally met a guy who truly moves her heart, and he's so outstanding, yet she has to give him up because of these so-called practical factors. She is really unwilling to accept this.
Wang Siyu suddenly looked up at him and said seriously, "Let's be good friends first. Once I find some time to convince my mom, we can be together."
"Where is your dad?"
Wang Siyu laughed and said, "My dad listens to my mom, so it's enough to convince her."
Chen Ze originally wanted to ask what her parents did, but then he thought that their relationship was still far from over, so he decided against it. He didn't need her family's help in his current situation.
On the side of the road, a police auxiliary officer sat leisurely on a motorcycle, smoking a cigarette and glancing at the coffee shop from time to time.
Shortly after, Wang Siyu walked out of the coffee shop with her arm around Chen Ze's.
"Siyu, didn't you say we should start as good friends? Aren't you crossing the line by hugging me like this?"
Wang Siyu raised her chin and said matter-of-factly, "I want to experience what it's like to have a boyfriend first. Lately, I've seen couples hugging and kissing by the artificial lake on campus quite often."
Is it pretty?
"Um...it's not that I wanted to see it, I just happened to be passing by."
Chen Ze pulled his hand away and said, "The experience is over, it's time to go back to school. I'll ride my electric bike, and you can ride your bicycle. We'll go together."
"Um."
The coffee shop was only a little over a kilometer from the school, and they arrived in the blink of an eye. After entering the school, the two of them went back to their respective dormitories.
Chen Ze pushed open the dormitory door, and the three people inside looked at him at the same time.
Zhang Guoheng spoke first, asking, "Damn, Lao Chen, you finally decided to come back to the dorm! I couldn't find you after class these past few days, and you were never in the dorm when there were no classes. What have you been doing all this time, acting all mysterious?"
Chen Ze's eyes lit up, and he decided to give his company some free advertising. So he took out a pack of Furongwang cigarettes and handed one to each person.
Then he explained, "I've been working part-time delivering food recently to earn some living expenses. I do it in my spare time, and I make more than 100 yuan a day."
"Why run a food delivery business? You can earn over a hundred yuan in just a few hours a day?" Zhang Guoheng asked.
Chen Ze opened his phone and handed it to him: "Here, this is Panda Delivery. If you want to work there, you can contact the recruitment number on the app."
Gao Pengfei: "I know about Panda Takeout. The day before yesterday, someone handed me a flyer at the school gate, saying that I could order food by phone or by downloading the Panda Takeout APP. I tried ordering one while playing a game that day, and I must say the delivery speed was really fast."
Zhang Guoheng put his hands together and said, "Thank you for sharing. I will sign up for it tomorrow."
Gu Bin laughed and said, "Chen Ze, there are more than a dozen beautiful girls in our class group chat. I don't think I've ever seen you chat in it. Everyone else is chatting enthusiastically. Why have you been lurking?"
"Teenagers are busy dating, and adults are busy making money, so dating will only affect the speed at which I make money."
After saying that, he took his change of clothes and went into the bathroom.
The next morning, Chen Ze didn't need an alarm clock. He woke up naturally at this time every day, while everyone else was still fast asleep. He tiptoed to the balcony to wash up.
This morning, Wang Siyu asked him to go for a run together, so after he got dressed, he went downstairs to the girls' dormitory, took out his phone, found Wang Siyu's phone number, and dialed it.
After the call was connected, Wang Siyu asked him to wait three minutes.
Soon, he saw Wang Siyu wearing a black tight-fitting sportswear outfit and sneakers, running up to him from the elevator.
"I didn't keep you waiting long, did I? Let's go, let's set off."
Chen Ze nodded, and then the two of them jogged side by side toward the football field.
Upstairs, Deng Chanying, Liu Ting, and Bai Xue combed their long hair as they watched Wang Siyu and the others leave.
