Chapter 75: Zhou Li was finally in love (74.2)
Translator: DragonRider
The big news that his fake boyfriend Rong Yi had made finally reached his uncle’s ears. And his uncle thought that his baby nephew had been abandoned. He was furious, and imdiately found another date for him.
His mother told him to go on a blind date.
Seeing that he was depressed after hanging up, Liu Yuan was very concerned: “What’s the matter?”
This guy had only beco less annoying after he thought that Rong Yi and himself were a couple, so Zhou Li didn’t want to tell him the truth yet. After pondering for a while, he decided to keep making up so nonsense.
“It’s not convenient for to take Rong Yi ho. You know, after all, he is also an Oga...”
Liu Yuan nodded at once: “Oh, that’s right. Even if they can’t tell now, they will find out sooner or later.”
This man was really easy to cheat.
“So my mother just called to go on a blind date in two days,” sighed Zhou Li. “It’s annoying.”
“Then will you go?” Liu Yuan asked.
“What else can I do if I don’t go,” sighed Zhou Li. “I’ll just show up, or they will nag every day.”
Liu Yuan was thoughtful.
“Don’t talk about this any more,” Zhou Li waved. “Let’s go! Eat!”
“In fact, I have similar troubles,” Liu Yuan followed him, looking rather awkward. “I think maybe we can help each other.”
Zhou Li turned around and said, “You want to pretend to be my boyfriend?”
He said this casually, but Liu Yuan suddenly beca very nervous, even his back was straightened up.
“I don’t think I’d look too unworthy for a match...” He said carefully.
Zhou Li looked him up and down, which made Liu Yuan feel so nervous that he didn’t know where to rest his hands or feet.
“How do you say?” He urged in a low voice.
“I think that might work!” Zhou Li chuckled. “We can set up a mutual aid group! Ah, but when you have soone you like, you must tell that. I will not make trouble for you.”
Liu Yuan licked his lips: ” I’ll try.”
“Co over here.” Zhou Li happily gestured at him.
Liu Yuan walked over uneasily and was pulled forward by Zhou Li. When their heads almost reached the sa height, Zhou Li raised his cell phone with one hand to turn on the front cara, and raised his other hand to make a half heart shape.
“Hurry up, make the other half!” He directed at Liu Yuan.
So Liu Yuan hurriedly also made a half heart with his fingers.
The love heart shape made by the two hands, one big one small, was a bit askew. Zhou Li pressed the button, then looked down to check the photo.
“Well, I’ll go back and show it to my mother!”
Liu Yuan looked down at the hand he used to make that heart shape. “Don’t I need to go back with you?”
“Don’t bother,” Zhou Li waved his hand. “I’ve sent you the photo as well. If your family hassles you, you can say I’m your partner.”
Liu Yuan nodded, “OK.”
Unexpectedly, as his new boyfriend, Liu Yuan received far more praise from his parents than the previous one.
In his mother’s words, Rong Yi’s face was the womanising type that wouldn’t give his partners a sense of security, whereas Liu Yuan’s type was much better for living a normal life with, good-looking in a well-behaved manner that offered reassurance.
“Look, in this picture, he didn’t even look at the cara but totally focused on you,” his mother was very satisfied. “He’s clearly very much into you, so we can rest assured.”
His mother’s words made Zhou Li realise that Liu Yuan did look a little strange in this picture.
It was a pity that he didn’t think much at the mont.
He was busy preparing to resign.
Li Xiaoran was really obnoxious.
Zhou Li felt that this guy was totally imrsed in his own world, and what he had done was beyond the level of office sexual harassnt, but completely impossible to communicate.
He didn’t try to paw all over him, but just kept trying to move Zhou Li with his so-called sincere heart.
Zhou Li was not moved at all, but getting goose bumps so that every day after work, he was sending out his resu on the Internet like crazy. Recently, he had finally received a satisfactory offer, so he submitted his resignation without any further delay.
Li Xiaoran couldn’t accept it at all.
He even showed Zhou Li his sealed and signed divorce registration.
This man had lost a lot of weight recently. He looked like a decent man, but what he said made Zhou Li’s head burst.
“Why can’t you give a chance? I’m willing to make any changes for you,” he said. “Do I really bother you that much?”
Zhou Li, who had submitted his resignation, was finally able to tell the truth: “Yes, it’s very disturbing.”
“You saw the news on the Internet a few days ago,” Li Xiaoran frowned. “Your partner is not a person worthy of entrustnt. I’m different. I’m sincere to you.”
Zhou Li’s head hurt.
He simply ignored Li Xiaoran’s words: “Manager, do you have anything else to tell about work?”
Li Xiaoran was silent for a long ti, and finally shook his head.
“No.”
Zhou Li hurried away. As he got to the office door, Li Xiaoran’s voice ca from behind.
“Is it too late to start living the life I want now?”
Zhou Li thought to himself, ‘What’s that? It’s none of my business.’
At the end of the day, Li Xiaoran reappeared at his desk.
Since the man quietly revealed the handso face once hidden under the fat, there had been subtle changes in the attitudes of several Ogas in the office that had been dismissive of him.
As soon as he ca near, soone took the initiative to say hello to him.
Unfortunately, Zhou Li was not one of those people. He was extrely frustrated.
“Give two minutes?” Li Xiaoran asked him.
With a bitter face, Zhou Li looked at the colleagues in the office who were surreptitiously looking in their direction, and sighed.
“Isn’t it convenient to just talk here?” He asked.
He had hoped that Li Xiaoran would shut up and leave imdiately under being stared at by so many eyes, but unexpectedly, Li Xiaoran hesitate for a few seconds, and simply said, “I want to invite you to dinner.”
“...” Zhou Li was shocked, then shook his head imdiately. “I don’t have ti.”
“Just once,” Li Xiaoran said, “I promise I won’t bother you again.”
Zhou Li was thoroughly, ntally prepared, but at the last al, nothing he worried about happened.
Everyone had more or less soft spot for good looks. Li Xiaoran’s appearance didn’t seem to be that annoying any more now that he was not harassing him. After he was seated, he mostly talked with Zhou Li about so work-related things, which made Zhou Li relax a lot.
But once the dishes were served, the topic finally still got around to the part that made Zhou Li fidgety.
“Am I a particularly annoying person,” Li Xiaoran asked. “Harassing you nonstop like a ghost. Have you been cursing in your heart?”
Yes.
Zhou Li coughed, bowed his head to eat without saying a word.
Li Xiaoran sighed and then said, “I’m sorry.”
Zhou Li was a little surprised and looked up at him.
“By no ans will you accept , right?” He said.
This was not a question, so Zhou Li still didn’t respond.
“There’s nothing more than inviting you to dinner,” Li Xiaoran continued. “Even if you don’t like , I still want to thank you.”
“Why?” Zhou Li was puzzled.
Li Xiaoran suddenly smiled: “Suddenly you want to know a bit more about ?”
“Whatever.” Zhou Li continued to eat.
“I think you are very interesting,” said Li Xiaoran. “Just... you give a very different feeling. I can’t say exactly what’s different. Anyway, I can’t help but want to care for you. I’ve never felt that way about anyone before.”
“...”
Zhou Li still didn’t look up.
“It was really because of you that I made up my mind to have the divorce.” Li Xiaoran said.
“Don’t, don’t, please don’t,” Zhou Li waved. “I can’t cope with such a big gift!”
Li Xiaoran smiled sohow: “No, I an … I want to thank you.”
“Ah? Why?”
“It’s you who finally gave the motivation to get rid of the life I didn’t want.” He said.
“... Isn’t that a little rude to your ex?” Zhou Li frowned.
“Then... I’ll thank you on his behalf,” Li Xiaoran said.” You’ve let him finally have the chance to leave such a bad person as .”
“...”
“We used to be so resigned and gave up on ourselves.” Li Xiaoran said, “If you can’t accept , that’s OK. n... can only be happy when with people who like each other. We would only do harm to others if we force anyone to like us.”
The al was very strange.
However, Li Xiaoran’s attitude towards him seed to have changed, so Zhou Li unconsciously beca more polite. When it was ti to settle the bill, Zhou Li forced him to do AA, Li Xiaoran couldn’t dissuade him, so he offered to drive him ho. Zhou Li declined twice. Seeing Li Xiaoran’s bitter face, he finally?caved in.
It had to be said that a lancholy fat man and a lancholy handso man did give a very different feeling.
Just as he got into the car, Zhou Li received a ssage.
It was from Liu Yuan, asking what he was doing now.
This guy had been chatting with him from ti to ti recently. He might even make a phone call when he knew Zhou Li was free.
Liu Yuan seed to start to get into novels about bizarre stories. After reading them, he liked to share them with him. Zhou Li was very interested in these things, so they chatted happily every ti.
But this was not the right ti.
Zhou Li replied, telling him that it was not convenient to call now. Maybe later.
A few minutes later, he was surprised by the ssage again.
Liu Yuan asked, ‘Who is the man with you?’
For a mont, Zhou Li wished that Li Xiaoran was still a fat man.
After all, it would look really innocent if he had left the restaurant and got into the sa car at night with a fat man.
At present, Liu Yuan must have got a huge misunderstanding.
