Chapter 14 He doesn't like me.
Wu Feng and the others in the back row were completely stunned, their faces full of disbelief. "Can this really happen?"
After Zhou Yanchuan left, Wen Jiu looked up and met Lin Meng's burning gaze.
She didn't speak, then after two seconds said, "Ask away."
As if waiting for her to say this, the girl blurted out: "Classmate, you and Zhou Yanchuan are really not familiar with each other?"
Wen Jiu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to deny it, but then she felt that after what had just happened, who knew what Zhou Yanchuan might do next.
It might be too late to explain it to people then.
Seeing Wen Jiu remain silent, Lin Meng's eyes widened: "You two really are!"
Seeing that the girl was about to start overthinking, Wen Jiu said softly, "Neighbor."
Lin Meng blinked, unsure whether she hadn't thought of that answer or what, and asked her to confirm it again.
"Neighbor?"
"Um."
"How long have you been neighbors?" Lin Meng was really curious about the relationship between the two and couldn't help but ask.
Wen Jiu hesitated for a moment, but finally told the truth: "It was when I was a child."
“We were neighbors when we were kids,” Lin Meng didn’t immediately realize, and repeated herself, her voice involuntarily rising, “We were childhood sweethearts!”
Wen Jiu was startled by the girl's reaction and paused for two seconds before nodding: "Fine."
"My God!"
Lin Meng was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information she had learned.
No wonder she always felt there was something strange between the two of them.
It was clearly unfamiliar, yet it gave off a strange sense of familiarity.
She sat there for a while before remembering something and asked, "Then why did you keep your relationship a secret?"
If she had a childhood sweetheart like Zhou Yanchuan, she would want to shout it from a megaphone to let the whole world know.
Wen Jiu looked up at the window, her gaze unfocused, lost in thought.
After a few seconds, he said in a low voice, "It's troublesome, and it's easy to be misunderstood."
Lin Meng thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "That's true, he's so popular."
If the girls who like Zhou Yanchuan find out about his relationship with Wen Jiu, who knows what kind of outrageous things might happen.
"So you two are very close?" Lin Meng couldn't contain her curiosity and was still asking even as she approached the dormitory entrance.
Wen Jiu didn't react much, but she responded to every sentence.
"Well enough,"
"Does he usually talk to you like he did in the restaurant just now?"
"Um."
After Wen Jiu finished speaking, the girl showed a shy expression.
A look of confusion flashed in her eyes: "What's wrong?"
"I'm so envious."
"envious?"
Lin Meng nodded and hugged her arm: "Didn't you see the way Zhou Yanchuan looked at you just now, and the tone of his voice when he spoke to you? He was so doting."
Wen Jiu replied calmly, "He's just bullying people."
“That’s not how you bully someone,” Lin Meng retorted instinctively.
Wen Jiu was taken aback.
What does it mean to bully someone?
"Anyway, it's not like Zhou Yanchuan. He's obviously just teasing you. Besides, he's usually cold to other girls and has never spoken to anyone first."
Wen Jiu blinked gently.
Suddenly, the girl leaned closer and stared intently at her face.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Meng's eyes darted around, and fearing that passersby might hear, she lowered her voice, "Does Zhou Yanchuan like you?"
The moment the girl's words rang in Wen Jiu's ears, a tingling, trembling sensation swept over him from head to toe.
The heart too.
It bounced wildly and uncontrollably, "bang bang bang".
Things she never dared to even think about were said so bluntly.
Wen Jiu paused for several seconds before finding her voice: "No."
“Of course I would,” Lin Meng retorted, “You’re very likable.”
That kind of beauty, like pear blossoms in spring water.
It makes you want to protect it.
Upon hearing Lin Meng's words, Wen Jiu subconsciously recalled the girls who had been associated with Zhou Yanchuan in the past.
They are all the kind of bright and beautiful women who can be spotted at a glance in a crowd.
A smile played on her lips, but her eyes held a bitter look: "No, it won't."
"Why? I feel like he treats you differently, and you're childhood sweethearts too."
"It's precisely because we're childhood sweethearts that I know."
"Know what?"
"I know he doesn't like my type."
Wen Jiu had thought about it countless times; she fantasized about herself and Zhou Yanchuan, only to have those fantasies shattered by reality each time.
To him, she was perhaps just a younger sister he was used to taking care of.
There is no other possibility.
The tone of the voice in her ear was very soft, but Lin Mengxin felt as if she had been stung by something.
It's hard to describe the pain, but it's impossible to ignore.
She looked at that gentle face and gleaned some other meaning from it.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she tentatively asked, "What about you? Do you like Zhou Yanchuan?"
Wen Jiu suddenly stopped walking forward.
Surprisingly, he wasn't very flustered when his thoughts were exposed.
It was like a stone pressing on my chest, with a small corner of it being moved aside.
And she was finally able to catch her breath.
It turns out that having a crush is much easier to discover than to hide.
She didn't speak immediately, but paused for a few seconds, as if she were talking to Lin Meng, or perhaps to herself.
"Who doesn't like Zhou Yanchuan?"
The next morning, a boy named Chen Yu suddenly transferred to their class.
On the day he arrived, he got into a fight with a boy from Class 5 on the playground.
After they separated, the instructor asked them why on the playground. The reason given was: "That person was looking at me."
Everyone burst into laughter.
Lu Fengyuan laughed in exasperation: "What? You can't even look?"
"no the same."
"How are they different?"
He even rolled his eyes.
"..."
The group laughed even harder.
Su Shun moved closer to Zhou Yanchuan and lowered her voice: "This child must have had some kind of illness when he was a child."
Zhou Yanchuan lifted his eyelids to look at him.
Su Shun pointed to his head: "There's definitely something wrong with this."
Zhou Yanchuan smiled, not taking it to heart, when he suddenly noticed a gaze falling on him.
I looked up and met a pair of dark eyes and a middle finger slowly rising.
"..."
He is indeed sick.
"What are you doing with your hands?" Lu Fengyuan kicked the person in front of him in the butt. "Standing still and not behaving yourself, huh?"
As Zhou Yanchuan was about to leave after military training ended, a pair of white sneakers came into view.
Then a voice came from beside him: "What were you laughing at?"
He lifted his eyelids and looked at the person blocking his way with a blank expression.
Only then did Chen Yu get a proper look at the boy's face.
A striking visual.
He managed to make even a military training uniform look cool, roguish, and arrogant.
Being stared at by him gave me a strange sense of pressure.
Chen Yu unconsciously straightened his back and realized that he was still a few centimeters shorter than the other person.
Zhou Yanchuan glanced down at the person who had suddenly stood on tiptoe, paused for a few seconds, and then casually uttered, "Idiot."
"..."
The air fell silent for two seconds.
The other side paused noticeably.
Say it again.
Are you sure?
"..."
"Hold."
After Chen Yu realized what was happening, he couldn't help but curse.
Su Shun and Wu Feng laughed: "Brother, don't make trouble for yourself."
"You can't win an argument with me, and you're even less likely to fight, so why bother?"
Chen Yu retorted, "How do you know I can't beat them?"
The two looked at each other and smiled: "Why don't you try it?"
