C227 – Innocent
Ye Ling was taken aback.
The mood vanished instantly with that statent.
Is it actually possible to get a girlfriend?
Su Ming was montarily surprised by Ye Ling’s reaction.
It was just a question, wasn’t it?
What’s the reason for her reddened face?
Could she be sick?
“Is sothing the matter?”
Su Ming inquired further.
“It’s nothing! Let’s just eat,” Ye Ling responded.
Aggressively, she plunged her chopsticks into the bowl, securing several strands of noodles.
Her gaze fixed on Su Ming.
Then, she aggressively chewed on the noodles.
This caused Su Ming to involuntarily shudder from a chill.
Why did she seem so fierce in her actions?
Su Ming wasn’t entirely at fault here.
Despite his academic achievents from a young age, he struggled with feelings of inadequacy.
His experience in pursuing romantic interests was non-existent.
Even though Su Ming had achieved a stable life in the city, complete with a car and a ho,
Gaining dating experience wasn’t sothing he could acquire through his agricultural pursuits.
Nonetheless, with his current status, Su Ming wasn’t worried about finding a partner.
“Have you been preoccupied lately?”
Ye Ling, struck by a sudden thought, questioned Su Ming.
Caught off guard, Su Ming asked, “About what?”
Ye Ling, noticing Su Ming’s wary expression, couldn’t help but chuckle.
“There’s no need to be wary.”
“Tomorrow, for my blind date, would you pretend to be my boyfriend?” Ye Ling proposed, smiling.
Su Ming imdiately declined.
“No,” Su Ming stated unequivocally.
“Pardon?” Ye Ling was montarily perplexed.
“I said no,” Su Ming reiterated firmly.
This refusal left Ye Ling feeling disheartened.
She thought that presenting the opportunity to act as her boyfriend, even for a day, would be eagerly accepted by any interested suitor.
Yet, he dismissed the idea without any hesitation.
Ye Ling inspected herself in the mirror she pulled from her bag.
Noting her healthy skin.
She acknowledged her attractiveness.
And her physique was comndable as well.
She wondered, why then did Su Ming decline?
“Hurry and eat. The rice noodles will lose their warmth if not eaten promptly.”
Su Ming expressed with earnestness.
The rice noodles offered here were exceptionally tasty.
However, their flavor was best enjoyed when consud warm.
She frequently seed lost in thought.
“I refuse to eat!”
In frustration, Ye Ling tossed her chopsticks aside and folded her arms, her annoyed expression paradoxically endearing.
“Understood.”
Acknowledging her stance, Su Ming proceeded to eat his rice noodles.
Ye Ling’s frustration grew upon witnessing Su Ming eating.
Su Ming was aware that Ye Ling sought his assistance.
Despite his delayed reaction, he grasped her implication.
Yet, addressing such matters was often complicated.
Farming appeared to be a simpler task by comparison.
Engaging in this scenario promised to exhaust him.
While Su Ming was focused on his al, a faint cry caught his attention. Turning, he noticed Ye Ling with her face buried in her hands.
Her tremoring shoulders made it clear she was in tears.
Concerned, Su Ming inquired, “What’s making you cry?”
Through tears, Ye Ling accused, “Ignore ! I never imagined you’d be such a person. After everything, you still refuse to et my parents.”
Su Ming was taken aback.
His actions had been innocent.
He was rely eating rice noodles when suddenly cast as the villain!
The street was bustling with people.
Ye Ling, with her striking beauty, drew much attention.
Ye Ling’s proclamation was loud and clear.
Such words incited imdiate outrage among the bystanders.
“People questioned, “”Aren’t you a man? How can you mistreat a woman like that?””
Accusations flew, “”You’re despicable! Engaging with her yet refusing to acknowledge it!””
So lanted, “”How could such a gorgeous woman choose you? Given the chance, I’d cherish her deeply.””
Bystanders consoled, “”Don’t waste tears on him. He’s not worth it.””
Nearby, so won comforted her while glaring at Su Ming.
Su Ming was dumbfounded.
He felt unjustly accused.
Despite his innocence, he was the subject of public scorn.
He found himself unable to mount a defense.
Desperate, Su Ming conceded, “I accept your demand. Please, stop crying!”
“Fine.”
Upon hearing his capitulation, Ye Ling stopped crying and smiled radiantly.
Su Ming imdiately felt remorse.
Her ability to feign emotion was impressive.
As he recalled, she was rather reserved in high school.
Yet, she now displayed a surprising level of guile.
