After Leng Chengze finished his bowl of egg fried rice, he didn't stay in the night market for long. He hurried back with Lu Wan.
On the way back, Leng Chengze was still afraid that Lu Wan would ask him if he had looked for a job today. As a result, he was nervous all night, and when he was about to fall asleep, Lu Wan didn't ask him.
Seeing Lu Wan coming out of the bathroom after washing up and about to open the door to enter the room, Leng Chengze breathed a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, he relaxed his breath too early. Lu Wan stopped at the door and stood with his back to Leng Chengze for a long time.
"What's wrong?"
She just stood there without saying a word. Leng Chengze looked at her petite back and asked curiously.
"After experiencing the life of the poor for a day and two nights, how do you feel?"
"You should have experienced enough. If you have, then go back to your original life."
"Our life is not suitable for you, and you don't have to pretend to be kicked out and live a hard life."
"You don't have to put extra thought on me. We can be simple friends or simple saviors, but we won't be lovers."
"I'm very grateful that you've helped me so much financially, so that I don't have to be as exhausted as I was before."
"However, gratitude cannot be considered an emotion, so I'm sorry that I can't respond to your affection."
"I'm going to sleep first. I'm very tired today."
After Lu Wan finished speaking, she hurried into the room, leaving Leng Chengze standing there with a blank face, looking at the closed door.
When Leng Chengze heard Lu Wan's first words, his head exploded.
His first feeling was panic, and she knew it, she saw it.
She simply didn't believe the reason why she was kicked out.
But what Lu Wan said next made his heart sink to the bottom.
He looked at Lu Wan's back with a pale face, and where Lu Wan couldn't see, his eyes were full of hurt.
She said that gratitude cannot be an emotion.
She said she couldn't reciprocate her feelings.
This wasn't the first time she rejected me, so why did my heart still hurt so much?
Leng Chengze sat blankly on the sofa, staring at Lu Wan's door, his eyes filled with confusion.
Lu Wan didn't ask me about finding a job tonight, and I was still feeling complacent. Unexpectedly, she already knew that the excuse she gave for being kicked out was a lie.
She had only intended for him to stay with her for the night and then leave the next day, so she didn't even ask.
After she said that, she didn't even give him time to react and went straight into the room.
Leng Chengze didn't even have the chance to explain to her.
After saying that, Lu Wan quickly went into the room, so she didn't know how hurt Leng Chengze looked.
She was now leaning against the door of the room, with an uncomfortable expression on her face.
She could feel Leng Chengze's feelings for her, and knowing that he took her so seriously, she didn't want to give him hope.
Such a good person, such pure feelings, it is better for someone like me who is wallowing in the mud not to get involved.
He is not worthy of being involved. He deserves someone better, at least not someone like me who is wallowing in the mire.
When I heard him lie and say he was kicked out of the house and wanted me to take him in, I agreed without hesitation. I also wanted him to see with his own eyes what my world was like.
I want him to know where the gap between them is, the difference between them is as huge as heaven and earth.
Lu Wan admitted that she was indeed a little moved that such an outstanding young man from a wealthy family would do this for her.
However, a momentary impulse does not mean anything.
There is a huge gap between the two of them, and she doesn't want to create a rift between them in the future because of the gap between them.
She was just a social animal trying to make a living at the bottom of society, and she didn't dare to think about the love between a rich young man and Cinderella.
When the two are still full of passion at the beginning, they can ignore the gap between them, but what if they spend a long time together?
Will things start to become boring because we have no common topics?
In the end, one person doesn't want to go home and face his boring wife, and the other doesn't want to see the disdainful look on the face of his partner. The final outcome is probably divorce again.
Lu Wan didn't dare to gamble. She didn't have the courage and time to gamble like that brother.
She is very busy now. Whenever she has some free time, she has to visit her mother or do some part-time job. She dare not even think about those unrealistic things.
Leng Chengze looked at Lu Wan's door for a long time, so long that more than ten minutes passed before he walked to Lu Wan's door with difficulty and stood still.
"I know what you are worried about, but it doesn't affect me being with you."
"You're very outstanding. My family doesn't stipulate that we must date someone of equal social status. If you don't believe me, go search online. My sister-in-law is an ordinary person."
"Lu Wan, give me a chance, a chance to prove that I am not lying at all, and to prove my feelings for you."
"I'm not a casual person, and I won't talk nonsense about playing with girls' feelings. You've known me for so long, you should understand my character."
"Lu Wan, I really like you. Can you give me a chance? I will take our relationship seriously."
Leng Chengze said all this nonsense outside Lu Wan's door, looking nervously at the quiet door in front of him. After a long time, he didn't hear any response from inside.
The nervous and expectant expression on his face was replaced by a look of loss.
He knew that Lu Wan's lack of response was a clear rejection of him. This time, even though he sincerely expressed his feelings, she still rejected him.
When he could no longer hear any response from inside, Leng Chengze smiled bitterly and turned around to sit back on the sofa.
Faced with Lu Wan like this, he didn't know what to do.
His mind was now full of the words Lu Wan had just used to reject him.
That night, both Leng Chengze, who slept on the floor, and Lu Wan, who slept in bed, suffered from insomnia.
One couldn't sleep in the room, and the other couldn't sleep outside the dark living room. That night, they reached a tacit understanding on insomnia.
When Lu Wan woke up the next day, she saw Leng Chengze still sleeping on the ground, and her face became more complicated than love.
Thinking that I was about to be late, I didn't have the heart to think about these things for the time being. I quickly washed my face, picked up my bag and went out.
When closing the door, she was very careful to do it very gently. She didn't want to wake up Leng Chengze. After all, she had just seen the dark circles under Leng Chengze's eyes.
