Chapter 42
"No, Ji Huai," Nanyang said with difficulty, a strange expression on his face, frowning, his face full of disbelief and incomprehension, "You were pursuing her well before, why are you suddenly doubting yourself?"
Ji Huai bit the tube and took a big sip of hot milk tea before speaking: "She always said that I would understand what love is only after I grow up. She said we are just friends."
"I told her out of spite that I didn't like her anymore."
"Then what? What did she say?" Nanyang asked anxiously.
"She said...congratulations on growing up, and that it was only right that I dislike her."
Ji Huai felt bitter in his heart and mouth. He couldn't understand why lemon water had to be sugar-free or heated.
"She's so amazing, so smart, and knows so much. I think maybe she's right... I've only reached her standard of being grown up, and I haven't yet developed the concept of love."
Nanyang was the first to disagree: "Don't listen to her nonsense! She looks like she has never been in a relationship, so what she says doesn't count!"
As he said this, he turned his head and asked Leah beside him, seeking her approval: "Don't you think so?"
Leah, who was called, was drinking milk tea. Upon hearing this, she took her mouth away from the straw, opened her eyes wide to show her seriousness, and nodded seriously.
Nanyang was satisfied. He held his chin with his right thumb and index finger, rubbing it, and pretended to think: "Well, Ji Huai, I'll start with you. Once you are sure of your thoughts and understand your needs, we can decide what to do next."
Ji Huai nodded honestly, took another sip of the bitter lemonade, and finally couldn't help but said: "Can I change a cup? This one is so bitter."
"Huh?" Nanyang was a little surprised and took Ji Huai's milk tea to take a look.
Ha, she ordered the wrong one. This was the milk tea she often ordered when she couldn't control her diet. It was said to be extremely hard to drink so that she could control her desire to eat.
"Oh, excuse me. I'll order another one. Look at what you're drinking."
Ji Huai shook his head and refused, not very interested: "I don't have much appetite, let's talk about business first."
"OK."
"Okay, then, Comrade Ji Huai, let me ask you," Nanyang crossed his fingers and rested his chin on them. His eyes were as firm as if he was swearing to join the Allied Army again. His gaze was as sharp as a torch, as if he wanted to stare through Ji Huai. "Why did she say to wait until you grow up? Tell me your story."
After saying that, she elbowed Leah and said, "You, today you will be the meeting recorder. Open your document and write down everything, word for word!"
Leah had long been accustomed to Nanyang's intermittent madness, so she opened the light computer, created a new document, and started voice input.
Being treated so formally, Ji Huai felt inexplicably nervous.
His hands were secretly twisting the corners of his clothes under the table, trying to organize his words.
"I was... picked up by her."
"Remember! Cultivate your younger generation!" Nanyang waved his arm.
"I used to live alone in the forest, and she brought me into human society."
"Remember! Towards salvation!" Nanyang raised his arms and shouted.
"I was very afraid of being abandoned by her, and I was also very dependent on her... I always felt that as long as I listened to her and protected her, I could be with her forever."
"Remember! Train your sister dog when she is young!" Nanyang stared at her and slammed the table and stood up.
Leah: .
"Are you okay in your head?"
Nanyang elbowed Lia: "Don't worry about it."
Nanyang waited for a while but didn't hear Ji Huai continue to speak. His eyes sparkled, making Ji Huai feel uncomfortable: "That's all? You've laid the groundwork now. I don't understand what's bothering you."
"How about you tell me more about it?"
Ji Huai felt a headache and began to doubt whether it was the right choice for him to come to see Nanyang today. This guy didn't seem reliable at all.
But now, apart from seeking help from Nanyang, he could not find any other suitable candidate, so he could only try his best.
"The problem is, I'm starting to doubt whether my dependence on her and my attempts to please her are motivated by liking and loving her. I'm not sure if it's because I'm used to being with her and then... I'm afraid of being abandoned."
"Nanyang, I still don't understand your definition and expression of truly liking... or loving someone."
Nanyang seemed lost in thought, elbowing the meeting recorder three times. "It's your turn, Love Brain. Isn't this your home turf?"
"Go ahead and talk about it in layers of emotion, starting with the feeling of falling in love, all the way to the psychology and manifestations of loving someone."
Leah: .
Even though her best friend wasn't normal in any way and wasn't reliable, she was right about this.
As someone who has dated three scumbags and still insisted on being in love, she has a special say.
Facing Ji Huai's expectant and trusting eyes, Leah felt very uneasy, extremely worried that she would lead the child astray.
She knew that being in love was not a good idea, but she would get carried away once she fell in love. Once she liked someone or got the guy, she would become mad and forget about everything, which always made Nanyang very angry.
However, Nanyang is right about one thing: being in love is a man's best dowry. If a child is taught the wrong way and becomes in love, it may not be a bad thing.
"Well... let's talk about heartbeat first."
Leah pondered the right words. "This is actually very simple. Do you involuntarily pay attention to what she is doing, care about her mood, and cannot help but get closer to her, wanting to be intimate with her, even to the point where your heartbeat speeds up?"
Although Ji Huai had no heartbeat, he was very sure about the other points and gave a firm answer: "Yes."
There was even more anticipation in Ji Huai's eyes, and his clear eyes stared at Leah seriously. Facing such an extremely exquisite face, Leah was almost shy of being stared at.
Leah secretly complained that Yun Piancheng was indeed a successful woman. She could remain unmoved in the face of such a beauty, which even made him timid and afraid to fight back in the face of love.
The heart-throb conditions have been met.
Nanyang was smiling and was just rubbing his hands, waiting for Leia to make another move.
"Okay, then you are indeed attracted to her."
Leah concluded, then moved on to the second stage: "Let's now decide that we like this concept."
Ji Huai nodded vigorously, feeling much better. He could even drink the glass of bitter lemon water and took a big sip.
Nanyang took a deep breath and felt that the person in front of him had an extraordinary sense of taste and a strong will, and was definitely not an ordinary person.
"Based on the above, do you want to know everything about her? Will you become very dependent on her, and will your mood be greatly affected by her emotions? Will you build a more stable and long-term relationship with her?"
Ji Huai hesitated, but nodded: "She doesn't seem to want me to know her past. I'm afraid she'll hate me if I ask her... From my point of view, these are consistent."
Nanyang died without regrets.
Her salvation is to develop a CP with her younger brother.
Oh, she can't die. Leah's intermittent love-sickness will make her wake up from her coffin.
Nanyang suddenly became angry again.
Sensing Nanyang's unpredictable mood, Ji Huai was a little confused, but still chose to respect him and ate secretly.
"Whether it has reached the level of love or not, it can be concluded that you like her," said Leah.
Since Ji Huai had witnessed Leah's love story, he believed that Leah's judgment was very authoritative.
"Yeah!" Ji Huai nodded vigorously, "I like her!"
Finally no longer entangled in the question of whether he likes Yun Piancheng, Ji Huai's mood suddenly brightened. He asked: "What about love? What is love?"
"like……"
Leah's voice slowed down, and after a moment's thought, she gave the answer: "Love means you are willing to give up everything for her, even your life."
"In this way, you will go from being lovers to becoming a family."
Leah originally wanted to use the love of parents for their children as an example, but she remembered that Ji Huai had just said that he had lived in the forest since he was a child and was picked up and adopted by Yun Piancheng, so he should not have parents.
So she didn't say anything, for fear of hurting Ji Huai's fragile heart.
"Give up... everything?"
Ji Huai had never thought about this problem. Everything he had was given by Yun Piancheng, even his thoughts.
Seeing Ji Huai's tangled look, Liya knocked on the table with her hand to draw Ji Huai's attention back: "You can think about this problem slowly."
Ji Huai was puzzled and tilted his head to look at Leah.
"Because once you're sure you're attracted to her and it's developed from a crush, you can pursue her," Leah explained. "As for love, you can cultivate it after you're together. Once you truly have love, you can register your relationship with the Alliance Marriage Department and become a legally recognized couple, taking responsibility for each other and becoming a whole."
Yunyun said that the prerequisite for becoming a partner is to have love.
Ji Huai remembered this clearly.
From then on, everything Leah said was regarded as the golden rule by Ji Huai.
I even had an urge to memorize it. Whenever I wavered in my liking for Yun Piancheng, I would take it out and recite it to consolidate and deepen my impression.
"good!"
Nanyang clapped his hands, declaring the first part of the meeting over, and asked Ji Huai: "Now, are you still entangled in your feelings for her?"
Ji Huai shook his head fiercely: "I like her!"
"No!" Nanyang rejected.
Ji Huai was puzzled.
Nanyang waved his arm, as if about to make a shocking statement: "You must continue to evolve and make breakthroughs! Your goal is love! You must win her!"
"Okay!" Ji Huai was full of fighting spirit.
He became depressed again: "But after I kissed her secretly... I was kicked out and slept in a separate room. She even said we were just friends."
Nanyang waved his hand casually: "These are all small problems. Let us help you find a solution."
"What?"
"have no idea."
Ji Huai:.
Never mind, I’m in a good mood now, so I’ll have a sweet drink.
When Ji Huai placed another order for milk tea, Nanyang slammed the table and gave the first step: "Let's do a personality analysis of her first, and then formulate a targeted strategy."
"Personality analysis?" Another unfamiliar word. Ji Huai relied on his strong language talent to combine the two words together and barely understood the meaning of the word.
"Yes," Nanyang nodded and hooked his finger at Ji Huai, "Listen to me, from my observation, she is a calm and self-sufficient woman with a strong sense of career. She seems to have a very stable heart in Taoism, but in fact, the way she looks at you is almost eating you up."
"And you said it yourself, it was because you said you didn't like her that she said you grew up, she didn't say she didn't like you!"
"so……?"
"She likes you, you're well-behaved, sensible, and obedient, and you're pretty. Look at your little face, my god, you should make your debut, and don't sell your Xiaoka so expensively."
Ji Huai still didn't understand.
"A frontal attack," Nanyang said, closing his right hand fingers together, making a knife shape, and gently slashing down, "Directly express your feelings and needs, then act like a spoiled child, play the victim, and pester her!"
"The most important thing is that you learn to seduce her with your face and figure."
