Chapter 214: Not a romantic, but a fool
“I can’t just pretend nothing happened.”
He Bin stepped forward and said, "I didn't ask you to pretend that nothing happened. I hope you can understand my feelings. Don't treat me as your brother or as a child."
"You can treat me as a man, okay? But we can still get along like before."
"Didn't we get along well before?"
Lu Shuangshuang retorted: "Xiao Xiang, it's different. I was able to be so comfortable with you before because I treated you as my younger brother. And I... I couldn't treat you as a man. Now that I know how you feel about me, I can't treat you as my younger brother anymore."
"I think... we should try to see each other less often in the future. It's definitely impossible not to see each other, but if there's nothing else, then we shouldn't see each other."
"no!"
He Bin anxiously grabbed Lu Shuangshuang's hand: "Shuangshuang, I was wrong. I don't ask for anything. As long as we can meet, okay?"
Lu Shuangshuang pulled her hand out and put it behind her back: "We will meet again in the future."
He Bin knew that the meeting Lu Shuangshuang mentioned was not the same as the meeting he mentioned. He subconsciously wanted to fight for it, but seeing Lu Shuangshuang's uncomfortable look, he swallowed his words and nodded slightly instead: "As long as we can meet, I will listen to you in everything."
Although she heard the answer she wanted to hear, Lu Shuangshuang was not happy at all. Instead, she felt very upset: "Do you have anything else to say to me? If not, I'll leave first."
"good."
There was a breath stuck in her chest, unable to go up or down, and Lu Shuangshuang didn't know why she felt so uncomfortable.
"Shuangshuang, look at the car."
Ye Zhiqiu grabbed Lu Shuangshuang and said, "Shuangshuang, what did you say to Xiaoxiang? Why are you so absent-minded?"
"I didn't say anything, just said we should try to see each other less often in the future."
Ye Zhiqiu was very surprised: "Are you planning to stop being friends with Xiaoxiang in the future?"
"Zhiqiu, I'm confused and I don't know how to deal with this situation."
"Originally, I should have been very happy when someone told me that they liked me, but I didn't expect that person to be Xiao Xiang."
"I've always just treated him as my brother. He's still a child. How could he like me? It's so strange."
"He must have been teasing me. I told him to try to see me less often in the future, and he agreed. When I wanted to leave, he didn't say anything."
Those involved are often confused, while bystanders can see things more clearly. Ye Zhiqiu realized that Lu Shuangshuang's feelings for He Bin were not what she said, and she simply treated him as a younger brother.
She just didn't realize it.
"Shuangshuang, it's okay."
Ye Zhiqiu gently patted Lu Shuangshuang's shoulder: "I think you shouldn't be too opposed to Xiaoxiang's love for you. As for the final direction of the relationship, why not let it take its course?"
"Let it be?"
Lu Shuangshuang shook her head: "I can't just let it go."
"Then follow your heart. Do whatever you want. If you don't want to see Xiaoxiang, then don't see him. If you miss him, then go see him."
Lu Shuangshuang was somewhat moved, but she also had some concerns: "This is not a good idea. Isn't this playing with Xiaoxiang's feelings?"
Ye Zhiqiu laughed out loud: "If not, how would you know what kind of feelings you have for Xiaoxiang?"
Lu Shuangshuang emphasized: "I treat him as my younger brother, nothing else."
"Okay, okay, there's nothing else."
Ye Zhiqiu's perfunctory attitude made Lu Shuangshuang angry and embarrassed, but she soon realized that something was wrong. Why was she angry and embarrassed? Was it because Zhiqiu didn't believe her, or was she feeling guilty?
But why should she feel guilty?
squeak--
A car suddenly braked to a stop in front of the two of them, interrupting Lu Shuangshuang's thoughts.
Xu Wan got out of the car and rushed to Ye Zhiqiu angrily: “Chen Zhiqiu, is it you who did this and reported Acan for taking kickbacks?”
Lu Shuangshuang opened her arms and protected Ye Zhiqiu: "Xu Wan, are you sick? What qualifications do you have to question Zhiqiu?"
"Lu Shuangshuang, this is none of your business."
Xu Wan was trying to pull Lu Shuangshuang aside, but Lu Shuangshuang shook off Xu Wan's hand: "Xu Wan, everyone knows about your little affair with Chen Can. It's your business if you are shameless. Don't involve Zhiqiu."
"I tell you, Zhiqiu is my good sister, her business is my business!"
Xu Wan glared at Lu Shuangshuang: "Chen Zhiqiu is indeed a vixen. She clearly didn't get along with me before, but now she protects me like this. I think she drugged you and you can't tell the directions anymore."
"Here, east, south, west, and north!"
Lu Shuangshuang never played by the rules. She pointed in four directions, raised her chin, and glared back at Xu Wan provocatively: "Xu Wan, I think you are the one who was drugged."
"No, you weren't drugged. Chen Can ate your brain."
"What's so good about a playboy like Chen Can? You still treat him like a treasure!"
“Don’t say that he hasn’t divorced Liya Shen yet, even if he is divorced, I won’t want a man like him.”
"You are so good, you are still sticking to me, you think you are proud of being treated like a slut!"
Seeing that Xu Wan was in a bad mood, Ye Zhiqiu quickly pulled Lu Shuangshuang behind her. She grabbed Xu Wan's raised hand and said, "Xu Wan, don't go too far!"
"I'm overdoing it? You two are the ones who are overdoing it!"
Xu Wan shook Ye Zhiqiu off and pointed at her: "I know you reported him because you failed to seduce Ah Can."
“Chen Zhiqiu, how can you be so scheming and shameless!”
"You have already married into the Yue family, what else are you not satisfied with? Is Yue Mingyuan not treating you well? I heard that Yue Mingyuan treats you as a treasure, are you worthy of him like this?"
"I finally got together with Chan, why can't you just let him go? Will you not stop until you take him away from me?"
Ye Zhiqiu was helpless: "Xu Wan, I have told you many times that Chen Can and I will no longer have any relationship."
"You also said that I'm already married to Mingyuan, why should I snatch your Chen Can? Yue Mingyuan is better than Chen Can in every way, and I'm not blind."
"Also, I didn't report Chen Can. I didn't even know he was taking kickbacks. I only found out about it after you told me."
"Taking kickbacks is a big deal. Chen Can might be expelled from the army and might even go to jail. Do you still want to be with him?"
Xu Wan was very proud: "I am different from you, and Ah Chan was wrongly accused. He would not do such a thing as taking kickbacks. Even if he did it, he had to do it because of his own reasons."
"Whatever you think."
Ye Zhiqiu was too lazy to tell Xu Wan anything more. She knew Xu Wan was deeply in love with Chen Can, but she didn't expect it to be so deep that she couldn't tell right from wrong.
Regardless of whether they are men or women, such people are not romantic, but fools. .
