Chapter 54 Wen Jiu can only have Zhou Yanchuan by her side
Wen Jiu's chaotic mind completely shut down at this moment, and her heart, which had been pounding wildly all night, finally gave out.
She could do nothing but stare blankly at the person in front of her.
Moreover, even though I should be happy, I don't know why my nose is stinging with tears.
Zhou Yanchuan felt both soft-hearted and nervous under the girl's gaze. He wondered if he had been too hasty and scared her.
Neither of them spoke, and they just stared at each other for a while. When they felt the chill in the air, Zhou Yanchuan wanted to take the girl to a warm place.
Just then, a soft sound rang in my ears.
"Why? Didn't you say I was your younger sister?"
This was the thing Wen Jiu cared about most; she was afraid that he was just confused about his feelings because he was in a hurry.
Zhou Yanchuan was taken aback, not expecting anyone to ask that question.
It's neither a rejection nor an agreement.
Instead, she asked him what he thought of her.
He hummed in agreement.
really.
Wen Jiu's nose stung even more, and her voice trembled with tears as she said, "Then why did you say all this... were you just playing with me?"
Zhou Yanchuan didn't expect the girl to react so strongly to this, but seeing that she was about to cry, he coaxed her, saying, "Don't you think that family ties go further than romantic relationships? And you can't be such a jerk, so jerk that the girl you've known as your sister for so long has other thoughts about you."
Wen Jiu's eyelashes fluttered slightly; she felt that Zhou Yanchuan was very gentle at this moment.
Perhaps because it was the first time he had spoken at such a long time, he paused for a few seconds before continuing, "As for why I said those things, of course I wasn't trying to fool you."
She looked up at him, her eyes misty, yet her gaze was sharp: "Then why?"
"So that I can tell you that I'm not human."

When the phone rang, Wen Jiu was still in a daze. She was startled and trembled. Zhou Yanchuan frowned slightly and took the phone out of his pocket.
He answered the phone, said a couple of sentences, then turned to look at her: "Are you going?"
"What?" Wen Jiu was taken aback by the question.
"Have a meal."
Wen Jiu instinctively wanted to refuse, but then the person next to her suddenly said, "I haven't eaten all day."
She paused, then asked, "Just one day?"
"Um."
"Then you should go quickly."
The girl's eyes were clear and innocent, filled only with worry for him.
Zhou Yanchuan suddenly felt like he was a jerk.
but.
He whispered, "I want to be with you."
Upon hearing this, Chen Si Nian on the other end of the phone couldn't help but curse.
I'm truly impressed.
"Are you deliberately flirting with girls again?" he shouted from the other end.
Zhou Yanchuan ignored him and simply asked the person in front of him, "Are you going?"
The boy was close by, and his cool, refreshing scent wafted over her, making Wen Jiu feel her face burn.
Moreover, she always felt that Zhou Yanchuan was different after saying those words, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was different.
She wasn't usually so easily embarrassed.
While Wen Jiu was in a daze, the person in front of her said softly again, "They're not from our school, nobody knows."
*
When they reached the restaurant entrance, Wen Jiu was still a little dazed and didn't even realize that Zhou Yanchuan was still holding her hand.
Until he pushed the door open with one hand.
She blinked and began to gently pull her hand out.
Zhou Yanchuan was caught off guard, and the girl's slender wrist broke free from his palm, her fingertips still seemingly retaining some warmth.
He gave a loose squeeze before saying, "Let's go."
Wen Jiu had assumed it was just a few of his friends, but he hadn't expected that a group of people who participated in the competition would also be having a meal here.
Zhou Yanchuan is too conspicuous.
The moment he appeared, dozens of eyes turned to him.
He looked at her as well, in addition to him.
Wen Jiu felt that if she sat with him today, there would definitely be all sorts of rumors at school tomorrow, which would be a real hassle.
Just as she was struggling with what to do, a female voice suddenly rang in her ears.
"Xiao Jiu, over here."
She was a girl from the dorm next to hers.
Wen Jiu breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to the person next to her, "I'm going to find my friend."
After saying that, she didn't care whether he heard her or not, and ran away.
Zhou Yanchuan didn't stop him. After what had just happened, the fact that the person was still willing to come with him was already a pleasant surprise.
Apart from the few people on the street, everyone else in the restaurant assumed that the two had just happened to walk in together.
The atmosphere around them became noticeably more agitated after Zhou Yanchuan's arrival.
The girls huddled together and whispered, "Zhou Yanchuan is here too!"
"This is the first time I've seen him, he's so handsome."
...
When Shen Che saw Wen Jiu sit down, he subconsciously glanced at the person next to him. To be honest, he hadn't yet recovered from the scene he had just witnessed on the street.
Seeing her now feels a bit strange; I just can't connect her with Zhou Yanchuan.
But seeing that Lu Jingci didn't seem scared at all, he suddenly realized something and asked, "Do you know that they know each other?"
Lu Jingci's eyes darkened slightly: "Hmm."
“I knew it,” Shen Che said, looking as if he had just realized something.
No wonder I asked him before if he knew Zhou Yanchuan.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but click his tongue. Other people were fine, but if the competitor was Zhou Yanchuan, things would be a bit tricky.
However, Shen Che looked at the girl who had already sat down in the corner. She probably wouldn't like someone like Zhou Yanchuan.
*
As soon as Wen Jiu sat down, the girl asked, "Where are your roommates? Why are you all alone?"
"Our dorm," she remembered that they had agreed to eat together before she left, so she guessed they had gone to eat.
"They have something to do."
"I see." The girl's eyes showed understanding, and she took a new set of cutlery from the side.
Wen Jiu said softly, "Thank you."
Just as I was about to unpack it, a voice came from behind me from the next table: "Brother Chuan, what are you doing here? Watching our game?"
Wen Jiu paused.
Just then, that familiar voice came from behind.
"no."
"No? Then what are you here for?"
"Looking for someone."
"Who are you looking for?"
Zhou Yanchuan glanced at the person who wished he could hide under the table, smirked, and looked at the person who had been asking him questions: "It's a secret."
*
Wen Jiu ate absentmindedly during the meal. She tried to ignore Zhou Yanchuan's presence, but his presence was too strong. From the moment he appeared, almost every topic of conversation revolved around him.
And inevitably, the last words he said would resurface in her mind.
"You don't need to promise me anything, I'm just telling you how I feel."
"Of course, you can refuse if you want, but it won't make a difference."
"Because Wen Jiu can only have Zhou Yanchuan by her side."
...
Wen Jiu couldn't help but get distracted while playing the game, her face turning red.
Wen Yao's voice rang in my ears as my arm was gently touched.
"Xiaojiu."
"Hmm?" She looked up.
The girl pointed to the bottle and reminded her, "It's your turn."
Wen Jiu was stunned for a moment, looked down and saw that the bottle opening was pointing directly at her. She paused for two seconds and said, "It's my turn."
A group of people were charmed by the girl's reaction.
Someone asked again with a smile, "So what do you choose?"
"The Great Adventure".
"A grand adventure?" Everyone was surprised.
Fearing she might not know the rules, the girl in charge of organizing the game explained, "We don't allow substitutions for drinking as punishment. You have to do whatever you draw, so think it through."
Wen Jiu nodded.
She's more open to dares than truth.
Seeing her insistence, the girl handed over the fortune-telling container: "Then draw one."
Wen Jiu reached out to draw a slip of paper, but froze when she saw what was written on it.
After playing the game, few dared to choose dare. When the girl drew her lot, everyone's attention was drawn to her. Seeing her change in expression, they couldn't help but ask, "What? What?"
Jiang Zhao tilted her head to look, and when she saw the contents of the slip of paper, she couldn't help but purse her lips.
"Find someone of the opposite sex and make eye contact for 30 seconds."
"Oh~"
The girls around them started to cheer.
.
What are they doing over there?
The boy on the sofa looked up when he heard the noise next to him.
Someone explained, "It seems that a girl from No. 1 Middle School lost a game and was made to do a dare."
"What kind of adventure?"
"Choose someone of the opposite sex and stare into their eyes for 30 seconds."
Upon hearing the punishment, a group of boys turned their heads to look.
Zhou Yanchuan wasn't interested at first, until Chen Si Nian nudged him.
"It's the girl you just pulled away."
