Chapter 236: Accepting Defeat
The moon is very big and bright this year, and it has already risen.
Ye Jiawen was just about to ask Ling Hang if he could accompany her to watch the moon for a while before going back, as she was a little homesick and missed her parents.
"By the way, can you accompany me to visit my brother later? This is the first Mid-Autumn Festival for him not to be with his family, and I am worried."
Ye Jiawen felt a little guilty when she mentioned this. Logically, she should have celebrated the holiday with Xiao Wu, but she happened to go see Ling Hang today, so she chose Ling Hang between the two.
Ling Hang hugged Ye Jiawen: "Let's go over there and call Xiao Wu to go enjoy the moon together. There are moon cakes and drinks in the car."
"When did you prepare it?" Ye Jiawen was a little surprised, as he had not always been with her.
"Mingyuan prepared it for me. I didn't think about it so carefully." Ling Hang touched the back of his neck out of habit.
Ye Jiawen looked at him and smiled: "Do you know that you have this little action when you are embarrassed?"
Ling Hang was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "I know, but I only do this in front of you. I won't be embarrassed or awkward with other people."
"Do you know what nickname the rest of our team gave me?"
"How would I know that? What?"
"Dunlop."
"Dunlop?"
"Dunlop is a brand of tires, and they say I have a thicker skin than Dunlop tires."
Ye Jiawen laughed out loud: "What did you do to deserve such a nickname?"
"Nothing, I just go to ask for supplies. If it's ours, I take it. If it's not ours, I grab it."
“Supplies are very important to us, especially…”
Ling Hang explained to Ye Jiawen. Seeing that there were people around, he tilted his head and whispered in her ear, "Weapons."
But when Wen Liang and Guo Jia, who were following the two people behind them, saw this scene, they misunderstood it as flirting.
"What did Jarvan's partner say to make Jarvan so amused? They even whispered to each other. They have a really good relationship."
Guo Jia looked at Wen Liang as she spoke. She wondered when Wen Liang would be able to treat her like this instead of always being so distant and cold to her, just like he treated other girls.
Wen Liang sneered: "Guo Jia, where do you think they are going?"
Guo Jia was distracted by Wen Liang's smile and replied absentmindedly: "It should be Jia Wen's boyfriend who is leaving. Jia Wen should send him off."
"No, Jarvan will go with him."
Wen Liang suddenly turned his head to look at Guo Jia and gave her a sly smile: "Want to make a bet?"
"Bet? What to bet on?" Guo Jia became interested.
Wen Liang was a little impatient: "Just tell me whether you want to gamble or not?"
"bet!"
Seeing that Wen Liang was unhappy, Guo Jia immediately hugged his arm and coaxed him, "Wen Liang, don't be angry."
"I'm not angry." Wen Liang pulled his arm out: "Okay, since you agreed to bet, let's follow and see."
The two followed Ye Jiawen and Ling Hang out of the school gate, and sure enough, they saw Ye Jiawen getting into the car.
"It's so late, why is Jiawen leaving? Is she... not planning to come back tonight?" Guo Jia said this deliberately.
No matter how much Wen Liang likes Ye Jiawen, he won't like it when he sees this scene. After all, no man can accept an impure woman.
"You lose."
Wen Liang didn't turn his gaze back to Guo Jia until he could no longer see Ling Hang's car.
Guo Jia puffed out his chest and said, "I'm willing to accept the loss. Tell me, what's the bet?"
"Our poetry club wants to have a dinner party with your legal club. Please help me invite Ye Jiawen. Remember, you must let her come."
Guo Jia was very hurt: "Wen Liang, you saw that Ye Jiawen has a boyfriend."
"I know. I don't want to do anything to her. I just want to ease the relationship with her."
Wen Liang patted Guo Jia on the shoulder and reminded her: "Who said that you should accept defeat? Did you forget it so quickly?"
"Wen Liang, I..."
"Guo Jia, I remember all the good things you've done for me. Can you help me again this time?"
Guo Jia couldn't stand Wen Liang talking to her in this tone, so she agreed immediately: "Okay."
"Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, do you want to go to the night market? Didn't you say that you were planning to go to the night market just now, but when you saw Ye Jiawen, you didn't go."
Wen Liang didn't wait for Guo Jia to answer and walked straight forward, because he knew Guo Jia would not refuse, she was eager to be alone with him like this.
Guo Jia really thought the same as Wen Liang. After being stunned for a moment, she chased after him in ecstasy.
The night market near them is not big, not as big as the night market near the University of Business and Technology, but the things they sell are quite complete.
"Big sister, how much is this?"
Wen Liang came to a stall selling hairpins, picked up a red hairpin and asked the stall owner.
"Two cents."
"What about this one?" Wen Liang picked up another one.
"This one is a bit more expensive, fifty cents."
"I want both." After paying, Wen Liang handed the two-cent one to Guo Jia: "Guo Jia, this is for you."
After Guo Jia took it, she looked at the 50-cent note that Wen Liang put in his pocket. She actually liked that one better.
But Guo Jia was still very happy to receive a gift from Wen Liang: "Thank you, Wen Liang."
"I should thank you. You helped me a lot before."
"Hey, Wenliang."
The two walked around for a while and met someone who shared the same dormitory with Wen Liang. The person glanced at Guo Jia and winked at Wen Liang.
Wen Liang gave him a slap: "Don't think too much, this is my sister."
"Oh, sister."
Guo Jia often went to see Wen Liang. They all knew him and knew that Wen Liang was not interested in Guo Jia, so they didn't continue to make trouble.
After these people left, Wen Liang turned to look at Guo Jia, only to see Guo Jia's eyes filled with tears: "When did I become your sister?"
"Guo Jia, I have always treated you as my sister. I don't have a sister, so can you be my sister from now on?"
"Don't worry, with me here, no one dares to bully you."
"You know how I feel about you." Guo Jia shook her head and cried, "I don't want to be your sister."
Wen Liang saw someone looking at them, so he pulled Guo Jia to a secluded place and said, "Guo Jia, I know you like me, but I don't have this kind of feeling for you. Even if I don't like Ye Jiawen anymore, I won't like you either. This kind of thing can't be forced."
"I know you're a good girl, and I don't want to hold you back. You'll be my sister, and I'll take good care of you in the future."
Guo Jia couldn't stop crying. Wen Liang sighed and wiped her tears gently with a handkerchief: "Guo Jia, I'm sorry, but I told you very clearly a long time ago."
"I...I don't want to be your sister, I just want to be with you." Guo Jia bit her lower lip, bravely rushed forward and hugged Wen Liang.
Wen Liang wanted to pull Guo Jia away, but she hugged him tighter and tighter.
Not only that, Guo Jia also stood on tiptoe and awkwardly kissed Wen Liang's lips.
"Guo Jia, even if I don't like you, you still want to be with me?"
