Chapter 649
"Heh." Fu Yanshi chuckled above her head. "I'm the one dreaming."
How could it be her?
He's been having this dream for over ten years, and the longer it goes on, the more afraid he is of waking up.
"Hmm, what?" Xu Qinghuan didn't quite hear clearly.
Fu Yanshi naturally wouldn't repeat himself; he had already been humble enough in front of Xu Qinghuan.
"Nothing, I've finished work. Where would you like to go?"
Is Zhou Size at the company?
Fu Yanshi frowned. "Why are you asking him?"
Xu Qinghuan blinked. "Jiajia said she wanted to have dinner together, that's why I asked."
"He's here."
"Oh." Xu Qinghuan nodded, leaned closer to Fu Yanshi, and deliberately raised an eyebrow. "You don't mean to get jealous just because I asked Zhou Size a question? He's your good friend!"
"I don't like it when you pry into other men's affairs."
Xu Qinghuan was both amused and exasperated.
I never imagined that Fu Yanshi was such a possessive man! I used to think he was quite aloof and taciturn, and didn't care much about me, even giving me a lot of freedom. But now it seems that was all an act.
That looks pretty convincing, but it must have been very tiring!
"How come I never noticed you were so sarcastic before?"
"If I had told you earlier, would you have run away?"
Xu Qinghuan thought for a moment, then smiled guiltily, "Yes."
What she fears most is someone being overly enthusiastic or trying too hard to make their presence known to her! It's like being forced to accept a stranger into her world; Xu Qinghuan's first reaction is definitely rejection.
"Isn't that okay?"
Fu Yanshi said it was only natural.
Xu Qinghuan pouted, "Why do you know me so well? Did you do your homework on purpose?"
"Why would I need to make a special effort to find out about someone I've sat next to for years who has never even borrowed a pen from me?"
During her student days, her main principle was to avoid owing anyone favors.
Ideally, no one should owe her anything.
It's not that she's afraid of being taken advantage of, but rather that she's not good at socializing and doesn't know how to handle other people's kindness and goodwill towards her.
Was I like that back then?
Xu Qinghuan blurted out the question, and after thinking about it, it seemed... that was indeed the case.
“You were always so proper back then. Even if I helped you with your schoolbag, you would politely say thank you.”
"..."
"So when you returned that letter to me, I thought you were refusing it."
Fu Yanshi still remembers how uneasy he felt when he put the letter on Xu Qinghuan's desk. He couldn't even sit in his seat anymore, so he made an excuse that the classroom was too stuffy and went out to play ball with his classmates.
As a result, he wasn't focused on playing ball at all, and he lost that game miserably. All he could think about was what she would say to him when they got back to the classroom.
Should we refuse or accept?
When the school bell rang, he returned to the classroom with his basketball. When he saw Xu Qinghuan holding that letter, Fu Yanshi's heart sank.
The other half also cooled down quickly.
As he walked back to his seat, he heard Xu Qinghuan say in a low voice, "Fu Yanshi, is this yours?"
"……Um."
"for you."
Fu Yanshi hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took the letter, noticing that it hadn't been opened.
He knew he had no chance.
Xu Qinghuan didn't even want to look at the contents of the letter.
“Back then, you received a lot of love letters, and I thought that one… was just one of many.” She frowned slightly and pouted. “Besides, I asked you if it was yours, and you said yes.”
