Chapter 438 Dating
Back in his room, Leng Yanluo threw the blanket back onto the bed.
It took him quite some time to calm down.
The bed was remade, the lights were turned off, and the room instantly became quiet.
I glanced at the time; it was eleven o'clock.
His bed was connected to Anjing's bed, separated only by a wall.
He thought for a moment, then, almost as if possessed, knocked on the wall.
Three knocks were made, but there was no reply from the other end.
Just when Leng Yanluo thought that An'an might have fallen asleep, two voices suddenly came from the other side.
"Ta-da!"
Leng Yanluo was instantly excited.
Then, a somewhat exasperated voice came from the other end: "What now?"
The sound weakened considerably as it passed through the middle wall, and Leng Yanluo could barely hear it by bringing his ear close.
He couldn't help but laugh: "I was just testing it out, I didn't expect you could actually hear me, this wall isn't soundproof at all."
"The wall was built later and it's not thick."
"Oh, are you going to sleep?"
"Okay, I'm going to sleep."
Knowing that An An was just brushing him off, he immediately said, "An An, I'm not trying to be mean, but how can you sleep at such a young age?"
The quiet voice was even more speechless than before: "I can sleep as long as you don't bother me."
Leng Yanluo coughed lightly: "I'm not annoyed, I just want to chat with you."
"I'm busy."
"No way... How about I pay you to hire me?"
There was no response from the other end.
Just when Leng Yanluo thought An Jing would ignore him, a voice suddenly came from the other end: "Teacher Luo, do you think dating me is boring? Actually, after thinking about it carefully, I think I agreed to date you yesterday purely because your confession was so touching. I agreed on a whim. Being with you, I don't really have any particularly strong feelings of love. How about we..."
The cold-blooded Yama on the other side, who was eagerly anticipating the outcome: "?"
After waiting for ages, my girlfriend, whom I'd only dated for a day, wants to break up with me?!
"An'an, stop talking, I'm sleepy. You should be sleeping a long time ago at your age. Goodnight!"
He finished speaking crisply and then completely muted his microphone.
"Huh? Teacher Luo, no, didn't you say we were going to chat for a while?"
"My emotions have only just started to build up."
"Teacher Luo, Teacher Luo?"
No matter what An Jing said, Leng Yanluo just closed his eyes and pretended to be dead.
Finally, silence fell. In the darkness, Leng Yanluo opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a long breath.
Although Anjing stopped talking, the words she had just said kept replaying in his mind.
She said... she doesn't feel like she's in love?
In the darkness, he stared at the ceiling, and a thought slowly surfaced in his mind.
...
The next morning, it was already past nine o'clock when things calmed down.
As she yawned, she walked downstairs and immediately spotted Teacher Luo sitting at the dining table.
Upon seeing her, he greeted her with a bright smile, "Good morning."
Looking at the lavish breakfast, Anjing opened her eyes wide and exclaimed, "What day is it today? Why is it so lavish so early in the morning?"
Leng Yanluo raised an eyebrow: "Take a guess?"
"Is it your birthday?"
Leng Yanluo shook his head.
"My birthday? No, my birthday is still a long way off."
After thinking for a long time, Anjing could only shake her head: "I can't guess. Teacher Luo, just tell me directly."
Leng Yanluo smiled and said, "Eat first, and I'll tell you after you finish."
Is this guy keeping us in suspense?
Anjing's curiosity was piqued, and she ate her meal very quickly.
After finishing her meal, she wiped her mouth and said, "Now, Teacher Luo, shall we talk?"
Leng Yanluo stood up and calmly uttered three words: "Date."
Quiet:"?"
She paused for half a second, then asked, "A date? The two of us?"
"Or are you planning to bring someone else?"
Anjing: "That's not what I meant, it's just... I wasn't prepared at all."
"No need to prepare, you're already very beautiful. Didn't you say last night that you didn't feel any romantic feelings for me? Today I'm going to give you a proper romantic date experience."
So Anjing was inexplicably dragged into Leng Yanluo's car, and they drove all the way to their destination.
Looking quietly at the name "Otour Sports Club," Anjing was momentarily dazed: "Teacher Luo, is this the romance you were talking about?"
Leng Yanluo raised an eyebrow: "Isn't that romantic? Exercise more, stay healthy, and embrace the sun. The most romantic thing I can think of is fighting aging together with you!"
She gave Leng Yanluo a thumbs up: "You won!"
Leng Yanluo smiled and said, "I knew you would like it. Come in, it's almost time for our appointment."
The sports club is very large and is divided into several venues.
It has basketball courts, badminton courts, swimming pools, rock climbing walls, archery ranges, etc., and operates on a premium membership system.
Although Anjing initially found it a bit odd, she discovered that she actually preferred this place to some clichéd movie theaters and cafes once she entered.
As Leng Yanluo swiped his card, he asked An Jing, "Have you ever tried rock climbing before?"
Anjing shook her head: "Really not. I've thought about it before, but I've never had the time."
Leng Yanluo remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was overjoyed.
He obtained a professional rock climbing certificate while abroad, and it's time for him to show off his skills to his family's An'an.
Moreover, rock climbing is quite physically demanding, so the two of them will inevitably have physical contact, and he'll have to hold her hand.
The two went to the climbing gym.
The climbing gym was quite spacious, but because the two of them arrived early, it wasn't too crowded.
As soon as the two entered, Leng Yanluo led An Jing to collect the climbing equipment with practiced ease.
He personally helped Anjing put on her protective gear one by one, and finally tapped her helmet, chuckling, "Alright, let's go, little one."
An Jing was momentarily stunned, lost in thought.
It wasn't for any other reason than the words "little one," which instantly evoked some memories for her.
Yan Su used to call her that too.
She used to pursue him relentlessly, even pestering him to accompany her to the zoo. But when they arrived, they discovered there was a special animal show that day, with people everywhere. Even on tiptoe, she couldn't see what was going on inside. She was so anxious, and Yan Su called her a little one.
She wasn't short for a girl, but standing in front of Yan Su, who was nearly 1.9 meters tall, she almost had to lift her feet to touch the top of his head.
Naturally, just by standing there, he could see the performance that she couldn't.
Later... he lifted himself up to watch the entire performance.
For a full half hour, he didn't complain of being tired once.
It was his reaction that made her vaguely believe that he also had some feelings for her.
But now that I think about it, it was all just her wishful thinking.
Looking at Leng Yanluo's back, she couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
It was only at this moment that she suddenly realized that the other person's shoulders and back were actually... somewhat similar to Yan Su's.
She stood there blankly, wearing protective gear. Leng Yanluo walked for a while but no one followed. He turned around and found An Jing still standing there in a daze.
He shook his head helplessly and went back to take her hand: "What's wrong? Have you lost your soul?"
