Chapter 500: Are You Asking Me To Pursue You?
“Master...” Shen Qianshu raised her glass of yogurt. “Do you want some?”
There used to be no yogurt in Rose Castle. Ever since Shen Qianshu came over, she had to drink two cups of yogurt a day. Then, the chefs would prepare them for her. They were all homemade, and they tasted way better than the ones sold in supermarkets. She could even drink three cups a day.
Ye Ling looked away while Shen Qianshu ate her yogurt silently.
You don’t know how to enjoy things!
“When did you meet Lin Xiaojuan?”
“In junior high school.” Shen Qianshu tilted her head. “Xiaojuan joined us on the second semester of Year One. She was my desk mate.”
She was her desk mate throughout their entire time in high school.
Shen Qianshu said excitedly, “Master, do you know? Xiaojuan is really smart. Strict parents raise great kids. She excels in her studies, and she always got close to perfect scores for her Math, Physics, and Chemistry courses. Other than English that was relatively weaker, she always got close to full marks for all of her other subjects. Usually, she helps me with my homework and even exams. She’s the best friend I can ask for in the entire land of China.”
Ye Ling was speechless.
As someone who had been excelling in his studies since he was young, Ye Ling had a lot to say about this issue.
“Then what do you do?”
“Me? In class, I sleep. After class, I fight. Very eventful!”
Ye Ling was speechless.
Shen Qianshu saw Ye Ling’s cold expression and straightened herself. “I sucked in my studies. I can’t compare to the smart people like all of you. Other than having a little talent in designing and languages, I really can’t do anything else. Maybe I haven’t found the spark. However, when I turned eighteen, I found it. I became a fast learner. Unfortunately, by then, it was a little too late.”
Ye Ling had wanted to ask her about matters regarding Lin Xiaojuan, but he became really interested in her past. When Shen Qianshu spoke about her past, she looked really excited and lively. It seems that she must have been really happy back then.
“Do you miss it?”
“Too much,” Shen Qianshu said. “When I was in high school, I kept thinking about graduating with Xiaojuan and getting into the same university. She would get a degree in cultural affairs while I would do arts. We may not be in the same class or faculty, but we would still possibly be together, and we would still spend out university days together in a carefree manner. And then after we graduated, I’d marry- Ah! Hah. Oh, after graduation, we would continue living a good life!”
Ye Ling’s eyes darkened. Shen Qianshu sensed something. “I never thought that I would meet you. If I had met you in high school, that would be... life changing. I would definitely flir- pursue you.”
“It’s not too late.”
“...” Shen Qianshu looked at him in shock.
What do you mean by ‘it’s not too late?’
The two of them looked at each other.
Shen Qianshu said, “Are you... asking me to pursue you?”
Ridiculous!!!
She had never pursued anyone in her life.
“Is there a problem with that?” Ye Ling asked rhetorically.
If she had dared to say yes, she felt that she would be killed. Shen Qianshu touched her neck and looked down to eat her yogurt. She decided to first indulge in the amazing taste of the yogurt before responding. Then, she looked up and asked, “Master, I have a serious question for you.”
“Say it!”
“If I pursued you, would we get married?”
“No!”
“Then I’m not pursuing you!” Shen Qianshu rejected him straightforwardly.
A storm brewed in Ye Ling’s eyes, and a thunderous storm was approaching. The elegant and grand hall looked like it was about to face something disastrous. It was really scary. Shen Qianshu twitched and sat back a little. She grabbed a pillow and hugged it.
Sad!
He’s really not intending to marry me!
I’m not going to pursue him if it is so! Shen Qianshu thought to herself. She was a person with dignity.
“You want to marry me?” Ye Ling asked. It was like the calm before the storm. Shen Qianshu tried to figure out the reason for him not marrying, and she could not sense anything.
