Chapter 240 Dihua Rejection
Chapter 240 · Dihua Rejection
To be or not to be, that’s a question——To survive or to perish, that’s a question.
To play dumb or to continue, that’s a question.
To reject or to respond, that’s a question.
These three questions, mixed together, are the same question.
It feels good.
Jiang Yu really couldn’t lie to such a big conscience and say that he didn’t like it. And his five finger joints were not stiff at this moment, but instinctively closed slightly under the action of nerve reflex.
Instinct——he knew he could restrain this instinct.
Zhao Yingkong’s hand speed was not fast, he wanted to run in time, and even if he didn’t run, he could make his palm become like liquid and have fluidity, so as not to be placed in this specific area at the moment.
But he didn’t——he could clearly feel the turmoil in his heart, the hormones secreted in his brain, dopamine, and various neurohormones that drive the operation of the mind——he knew that he also had the ability to correct them. But at this moment, he also didn’t feel like adjusting them to any extent.
He was just thinking——
——Ah… I finally understand why red wine should be served in a goblet.
Jiang Yu used to dislike any alcohol, but now he thinks it’s okay to taste red wine occasionally. Jiang Yu used to think that the gestures of those well-dressed guys holding goblets in movies were awkward, but now he finally understands that there must be a reason why a custom can be passed down to this day.
He felt a little thirsty. If it were a different occasion or a different time, he might still sip the wine in the glass.
But now…
——No.
Jiang Yu’s heart calmed down quickly and quickly. He was sure that the girl in front of him did have a crush on him, and he did have a certain degree of affection for her, and he was very happy to deepen this affection until the two sides reached another more intimate and enthusiastic relationship. However, there was one thing that had to be resolved, and there was a premise that had to be dealt with.
It wasn’t Zhao Zhuikong… Not to mention that the Zhongzhou team was destined to be hostile to him, and the seniors were completely unfamiliar with Zhao Yingkong’s main personality. Even if these two prerequisites are completely overturned, it is not a parameter that needs to be considered. What Jiang Yu values and needs to deal with is another key thing.
That is the premise, the initial premise of the assassin girl's love.
He took a breath and slowly but firmly pulled his reluctant hand out from the girl's fingers. When he did so, he clearly felt the temperature drop of the girl's fingertips and the rapid fading of the blood on her face.
But she still looked at him, raised her head, opened her eyes wide, waiting for a result that would not be enough to give up unless he said it.
"There is one thing I must tell you." Jiang Yu tried to organize his words: "That is, I don't understand you and know you as well as you expected and thought."
The assassin girl's eyes widened slightly.
"I don't know what you thought or saw before tonight. But I have to tell you. Until just now, I didn't have a real love for you in my heart. I regarded you as a newcomer with potential, a reliable teammate, and an important companion. I studied the exchange route and arranged the position for you, but other than that, I didn't think too much."
"So... you don't like it?" The girl's tone was cold and stiff. "I just... liked you without permission?"
"That's not the case." Jiang Yu shook his head. "You are beautiful, have a good figure, and a great personality. If I say that I have no desire for you, no thoughts beyond friendship, then I am naturally deceiving myself... I have also thought about going with the flow, but I don't want you to regret or even suffer in the future because of your choice tonight."
"You don't know me, just as I don't really know you very well... You want to pursue your dream, which is right. But I can see the urgency in your actions... You are almost eager to prove your independence, you want to prove that you are not the same as the other you you said. You made a decision because of this... At least part of the reason is that you made a decision because of this. And this is really a bit too hasty."
He looked at the girl in front of him seriously, his eyes more focused than ever before.
"Don't make a decision that will affect your life. Your soul is precious, and your body is precious. Whether I am a qualified trustee requires you to consider carefully and weigh it. Throw away your sensory filter of me, and don't take the little help I provide you too seriously. Then, you can get the result that you won't regret."
That's all.
The assassin girl opened her mouth slightly, and a faint breath flowed between her thin lips.
"So..." The stiffness in her voice gradually disappeared. "Do you think you didn't help and guide me as much as I thought. Although you have feelings of liking me, this feeling has not turned into love until tonight?"
"That's right." Jiang Yu nodded. Without hesitation.
"What about now?" The girl still looked at him.
"Some." Jiang Yu admitted. Not hiding it.
"That's good." The assassin girl nodded gently, and she stepped back. The next moment, her body disappeared into the shadows.
She left.
Jiang Yu lowered his eyes and sighed silently. He had to admit that at this moment, he actually wanted to slap himself.
——It's fun to pretend to be noble without eating the meat that was served to your mouth! Now it's good, the harem is gone!
He thought, but he was more relaxed in his heart.
Because he didn't like it.
It's not that he doesn't like to open a harem - he thought about it a lot, but what he didn't want was such a frivolous result.
Dihua.
He remembered such a future network concept - because of the gap between the power and status between the two parties, one party would take the initiative to imagine the motivation of the other party's behavior and deduce a false truth that shocked him deeply. In the end, the imaginative party moved himself, took the initiative to cater to the imaginary party, and firmly believed that every move of the imaginary party had a deep meaning. Thus, he became a loyal follower of the person being imagined, even if the person being imagined never cared about him at all.
He did nothing, or almost nothing. He just sat back and enjoyed the fruits of his labor. This is the benefit that the person being imagined can obtain. If it is placed in a novel, it is of course good. But if it is placed in a relationship... then, perhaps it is not so good.
——I have never pursued Zhao Yingkong, even though I am indeed interested in her.
——The me she understands is a one-sided me. She only sees the side she wants to see, and then acts hastily.
Feelings may come from impulse, but relationships should not be in a mutual misunderstanding from the beginning. I have never thought of pursuing her, and the self she perceives is completely different from the real self. Then, such a combination is destined to only create regrets and pain. Although Jiang Yu has made plans to be a scumbag, he feels that he does not need to degenerate to the point of not recognizing people when he pulls up his pants.
In short, it is still the moral cleanliness that is at work. Although it is a pity, it will at least make him feel much more relaxed.
However, although it is relaxed, there will always be regretful emotions.
——Why is Xia still in a daze?
He had to divert his thoughts and think about other issues. Although the next night was long, it was not suitable for some special battles. But at least, he felt that he could find someone to confide the slightly accumulated depression and frustration in his heart.
He did think so-he had not thought enough.
When he was frustrated and distracted, his thoughts were not focused. The shadows around him suddenly squirmed!
Is it an attack! ?
Or-
The familiar perception came into his mind, and the vigilance was raised, and then it was put down-the assassin girl who had returned suddenly appeared, and the next moment she lightly threw herself into Jiang Yu's arms!
-Will I be chopped by a hatchet! ?
Jiang Yu only had time to flash this thought in his mind. But the next moment, he saw the girl's pretty face and eyes full of determination!
A cold touch came from his lips. Then, it turned into warmth.
"You make a lot of sense, so I've thought about it carefully."
The warm feeling quickly disappeared, and the girl who had returned and gone away again.
"I may not understand the real you before. But you just now are definitely the real you."
"So... I won't give up." Her departure was accompanied by a disintegrating shadow. "And, from now on, just call me Yingkong."
She really left.
Jiang Yu looked at the direction where she was going, touched her lips, and blinked her eyes.
What the hell is this...?
"Playing hard to get, Ayu, you played this very beautifully." Xia's voice came from behind, and only then did she appear in the hall of the church.
Jiang Yu glanced at her, annoyed, but more embarrassed-as if she was caught in bed.
"I'm not..."
"Yes or no, it's not only about the motivation, but also the result." Xia looked no different from usual. She walked briskly to Jiang Yu's side. "I think... Ayu, you won't waste the next time explaining the ins and outs of this incident to me, right?"
She was right.
She had listened to almost the entire process, so why did she need to listen to the explanation again!
And he knew even more that he didn't need to ask what Xia thought about this matter.
Because he already knew that everything was revealed the moment Xia appeared in front of him.
And Xia also brought another piece of information.
"Ms. Zhan Lan wants to see you, A Yu." Xia said, and this matter could have been easily communicated directly through the mind network.
"Now." She paused for a moment and then stopped.
