"Sister Luo... Please don't tease anymore. Let's not talk about our past life; let's focus on this life, okay?"
Seeing Chu Ge's serious face, Luo Suyun laughed even more joyfully.
"Alright, it's the first ti we're eting in this life, but I believe that without destiny from our past lives, we wouldn't have t in this one, don't you think?"
Chu Ge was at a loss for words; this rhetoric... he's truly amused.
At the sa ti, Luo Suyun finally noticed the exquisite dishes on the table behind Chu Ge, adding more surprise and astonishnt to her already smiling face.
Seeing the change in Luo Suyun's expression, Chu Ge chuckled, "Sister Luo, look at these dishes I cooked, they're barely passable, right?"
"If the dishes you made are just barely passable, then in this whole world, I'm afraid I can't find any that are more presentable."
Hearing Luo Suyun throw his words back at him, Chu Ge burst into laughter, "Well, considering my hard work, is there any reward for ?"
"How about... I feed you this al?"
Chu Ge shook his head with a smile, "No need, I have hands and feet, it's a bit embarrassing."
Luo Suyun picked up a piece of sushi with chopsticks and brought it toward Chu Ge's mouth, "Don't be embarrassed, you did save my life, feeding you so food is nothing."
"Sister Luo, really, there's no need."
Seeing Chu Ge still shaking his head, Luo Suyun laughed again, "I didn't realize, you're quite shy, little handso guy."
Chu Ge smiled noncommittally, picked up his chopsticks, and started eating and chatting with Luo Suyun.
Luo Suyun was very talkative, though not everything did Chu Ge have an interest in chatting about with her. Nevertheless, Chu Ge didn't show it, as he could understand Luo Suyun's situation.
A single woman raising a child on her own surely has many ups and downs in life. Even if she seems like a rough woman, there's certainly another side to her that nobody knows.
In this world, everyone wears a mask to so extent, hiding the true self, with many things kept silent inside for lack of a suitable listener.
People around aren't an option, as they share the sa circle, but Chu Ge is different. To Luo Suyun, he is just an outsider, and after today, they might never et again.
Moreover, after what had happened earlier, Luo Suyun had every reason to believe in Chu Ge's character, so they could speak freely with each other.
After chatting for a while, Luo Suyun suddenly asked, "By the way, little handso guy, you don't find it boring to listen to , do you?"
Chu Ge gave a slight smile, "Why would it be boring? It's an honor to chat with you, Sister Luo."
Luo Suyun giggled, "Little handso guy, be honest, you really don't find it boring?"
"Not at all. Our eting is fate; if you're willing to chat with , that ans you think highly of . Say whatever you want, I'm all ears."
Luo Suyun's smile had a hint of warmth. Even if Chu Ge was lying, she felt happy hearing it. Such a brave and patient man, truly heartfelt. She suddenly felt that if she had been born a few years earlier and t this man sooner, how wonderful it would be.
Amidst the laughter, Luo Suyun suddenly found herself at a loss for words, feeling a bit awkward.
She was the one who suggested chatting first, and despite overthinking many things when alone, she didn't know where to start now.
"Sister Luo, are you finding it hard to figure out where to start?"
It was Chu Ge who broke the silence first. Hearing him say so, Luo Suyun felt even more embarrassed and could only nod slightly, giving an apologetic smile, "Yeah, am I being too... too silly?"
"Not at all. After all, we're just strangers eting by chance. You have the urge to vent but don't know where to begin right away, that's completely normal."
Hearing Chu Ge say this, Luo Suyun couldn't help but smile, resting her cheek in one hand and propping her arm on the table.
"I find you're really good at resolving awkward situations. You skillfully saved from the thugs, and now your words smoothen this awkwardness. You're truly impressive! Could you say more specifically why I don't know where to begin?"
Chu Ge scratched his head, giving a cheeky smile, "Alright, then I'll ramble a bit; what I say might not be right, so just take it as humor, a bit of fun."
Luo Suyun couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You're really so amusing. You have a face saying 'say I'm fat and I'll claim you're out of breath', yet such modest words. Spill it out, I'm eager to hear. I've taken my shower earlier, so I'm ready to listen attentively."
"Haha, Luo Jie, you're overestimating , but I'll go ahead and say it."
Chu Ge smiled confidently, and then started speaking freely.
"I think, because you think I'm a pretty good person, but that's just your first impression, you still can't trust completely. On the other hand, you don't know what I might be interested in, so you don't want to disrupt the good atmosphere between us, worried that the topics you bring up might make things awkward."
After Chu Ge finished speaking, Luo Suyun thought about it for a mont and looked at him with amazent in her eyes, "You're really amazing. When I think about it, that's exactly how it is."
"Luo Jie, don't worry, just say whatever you want to say, don't hold back. I'm willing to listen to anything you say, I promise."
"It's really great to et you today."
This ti, Luo Suyun finally stopped hesitating and started chatting with Chu Ge about everything and anything.
At this mont, what Luo Suyun talked about the most was astrology, sothing that actually didn't interest Chu Ge at all, but he still listened patiently.
"We were just talking about what kind of girls Cancer n like, right? Let continue, and you can see if it's right?"
"Hmm, okay."
"Cancer n, although they like gentle and reserved girls with a simple background, are actually also interested in girls with a lot of stories, who are clever and lively. But such girls, while attracting Cancer n, also make them feel afraid."
"However, interestingly, if a girl acts lively and natural in front of others, but dumbfounded in front of a Cancer man, it makes the Cancer man find her adorable."
Hearing this, Chu Ge almost laughed out loud. In such a situation, wouldn't any man find such a girl adorable, regardless of the zodiac sign?
Of course, though this was what Chu Ge thought, he didn't show his amusent on his face and continued listening to Luo Suyun's explanation about Cancer n.
"Cancer n are often very passionate about relationships. This is because the Cancer man's personality is very delicate, sotis even more delicate than a woman's. So, if a lover leaves, the Cancer man feels trendous heartbreak, and so Cancer n might even question life, feeling that life has lost all aning."
Chu Ge's eyelids twitched a bit. Was Luo Suyun praising Cancer n or criticizing them?
"Moreover, for a lover who has left, a Cancer man just can't let go and always considers the other, wishing he could continue to take care of them."
"The most noteworthy thing about Cancer n is their love for ho and deep commitnt to relationships. Once married, a Cancer man will wholeheartedly think about how to build a better family, willing to take on all sorts of responsibilities no matter how hard or tiring—it makes them a super good husband."
anwhile, in a van with three criminals, Chen Lei was in a dilemma.
Driving the van slowly along the road in the night, Chen Lei was incredibly conflicted, not knowing what the right thing to do was.
After thinking it through, he finally ca up with a way that wouldn't offend Chu Ge and definitely wouldn't involve him in any trouble: just drive the van sowhere, ditch it, and call the police anonymously to let them co to pick up the people.
Thinking of this, Chen Lei felt a sense of relief, stepped on the gas, and drove the van to a relatively secluded place not far from the local police station.
After stopping the vehicle, Chen Lei got out, found a nearby supermarket, called the police, and then hailed a taxi to leave the scene.
Sitting in the taxi, the scene of those two n suddenly being taken down still replayed in Chen Lei's mind, and Chu Ge's words to the third man rang in his ears.
"Have you killed anyone? Do you dare to?"
From Chu Ge's tone at the ti, Chen Lei couldn't help but feel as if Chu Ge had really killed soone before.
Even as a bystander, the faint smile on Chu Ge's lips at the ti made Chen Lei's scalp tingle just thinking about it now.
Although he never saw exactly how Chu Ge threw those two stones, the more he thought about it, the more his heart pounded with fear, and the more he realized how unwise it had been for Peng Xianggang to challenge Chu Ge to a shooting competition.
The three-point line on a standard basketball court is 6.25 ters from the hoop, and today, when Chu Ge threw those two stones, he was approximately six to seven ters away from those two n.
At such a distance, throwing two stones and hitting both seems like no big feat, but the key was Chu Ge's speed—it was incredibly fast, with almost no pause in between. Moreover, it was already dark, and Chu Ge's vision couldn't have been great.
Chen Lei rembered clearly that one stone hit the first man in the middle of the forehead, while the other struck the second man in the back of the head. After being hit, they both imdiately went down and still hadn't co to, even now. Such precision and control of force were simply terrifying!
If two small stones could be aid at and hit people accurately from six to seven ters away, how much easier would it be to shoot a basketball into a hoop?
While Chen Lei was shaken, Mu Lingshan, who had received the anonymous call to the police, furrowed her brows deeply, her expression changing unpredictably. Her feelings were incredibly mixed.
