Chapter 104: The Conversation Between My Girlfriend and Cousin Sister

  In the restaurant, Du Jing and Qiao Anyu were sitting face to face. They weren't very familiar with each other, so it was a bit awkward when they suddenly sat together. She forced herself to find topics to chat with Du Jing, but didn't ask about her relationship history with Shu Zimo.

  "Yu Liang, aren't you curious how Mo and I ended up together?" Du Jing asked with a smile.

  Qiao Anyu was taken aback, she didn't expect Du Jing to proactively bring up this topic.

  "I'm not very interested in his affairs," she replied indifferently.

  "You're his cousin, how can you not care?" Du Jing said.

  Qiao An Yuliang furrowed her brow, she didn't understand Du Jing's words. After all, Du Jing was in the same school as herself and Shu Zimo in junior high school, other classmates may not know that this is just a cover, but she shouldn't be unaware of it either. She and Su Yuzhe were so close, she even had a crush on him at one point. Su Yuzhe and Shu Zimo sat together for a long time, he must have known that Shu Zimo and Qiao An Yuli didn't even have a half-cent relationship. So as Su Yuzhe's good friend, a girl who liked Shu Zimo, how could Su Yuzhe not tell her?

  She didn't know whether Du Jing was testing her or teasing her.

  "In junior high school, people of your age group all knew that you two cousins didn't get along, and if you weren't arguing, it felt unnatural. Indeed, as cousins, both of their personalities were explosive. However, as a boyfriend, he was still very gentle. He wouldn't be cold to her like he was to other girls." Du Jing elegantly took a small sip of soup and said softly.

  Alas, Du Jing is too naive. They've just started dating and she's already jumping to conclusions. It seems like she's in deep trouble. Shu Zimo can't hide his temper, and hard days may be ahead. Hopefully, Shu Zimo will only be harsh with Qiao Anyulian and not with Du Jing as well, or he'll scare off his girlfriend and who will be able to control him? Qiao Anyulian is eager for Du Jing to take Shu Zimo away from her as soon as possible. As long as he has a girlfriend, he'll shift his attention to that side and won't come to bother her again, at least not so frequently.

  "That's natural, otherwise what's the use of having a girlfriend? Isn't it to pamper her?" Qiao Anyu smacked her lips, wondering if today's food was particularly delicious or if her appetite was better than usual. Was it because Shu Zimo was about to fade out of her sight, so even her stomach started to get excited and couldn't help but cheer?

  "I believe he will," said Du Jing with a face full of expectation.

  Qiao Anyu thought that Du Jing's mental age was more mature than hers, but it turned out that she was just a little girl after all. However, what Du said next changed Qiao Anyu's impression of her again.

  "I've liked Mo since freshman year, can you believe it? This liking has actually lasted for so long, maybe it's because we're always running into each other. When he and Yu Zhe were desk mates, I saw him for the first time and had a good impression of him right away. Other girls might think he's hard to get close to, but I didn't feel that way at all. His coldness, in my opinion, is just a disguise for his vulnerable and anxious heart. Most of the time Yu Zhe and I spent together was talking about Mo."

  Do you know? Yu Zhe once told me that his parents are always abroad, and even during Chinese New Year, they rarely return home. So many Spring Festivals and Mid-Autumn Festivals have passed, and the nanny has also gone back home, but he has spent them all alone. In his third year of high school, he moved into Yu Shuang's house, but it was just because his parents entrusted Yu Shuang's parents to take care of him. This feeling of being neglected by one's loved ones must be very painful. But he always appears as if nothing is wrong, which makes me even more heartbroken. I have deeply fallen in love with him. Or you could say, I have deeply fallen in love with his loneliness.

  At first, I didn't dare to get too close to him. His current state is probably like a small hedgehog, wrapping his wounded heart with thorns all over his body. Any girl who gets close to him will be pierced by his thorns. In the past, there was a girl who confessed to him, and he rudely chased her away. Fortunately, Yu Zhe was there, so I could slowly get closer to him until now when he completely accepts me.

  "Not long ago, when I went to the basketball game, you were also there. Before that, I wrote a letter saying I liked him, and he read it too. He even asked Yuzhe to pass on a message to me, saying we weren't possible. On the day of the basketball game, he was acting very unnatural, and when playing ball, his heart wasn't in it. Maybe it's because he hadn't fully accepted me yet. Until today at noon, he suddenly ran over and asked if we could be together. I was both surprised and happy, and didn't even ask him if he liked me or not, just agreed on the spot. But now that I think about it, this change is too sudden, and I don't know what's been going on recently to make him accept me so quickly. And does he really have feelings for me? So, I can only ask you, my cousin. Although you two often fight, if you ask him, he'll tell you. Because he's only mean to you, it means he cares about you, his cousin. I heard he doesn't have any other siblings besides you. This is also the main reason I asked you out for dinner."
