Chapter 1891: Yes

He had wanted to find too many opportunities to talk to her.
He wanted to ask her if she had been well all these years, but he could imagine Ji Fengmian’s att.i.tude and answer.
“Don’t you think the current question is stupid?”
Yes, she was well and healthy now. How could she not live well in front of him?
But other than this question, what else could he say to her?
!!
She couldn’t find him.
Actually, he understood very well that she didn’t want to lie to everyone back then. She wanted to lie to him.
As she had said, she really wanted to get rid of him.
In nine years, she could really ignore the orphanage and everyone there.
At the end of the day, Ji Fengmian finally stood up and left.
Holding the book in one hand and the phone in the other, she walked past him lightly. Her voice was light and calm.
“Oh, I’m going out soon… Oh, I want to drink milk tea…”
Chu Boyang, who was also about to leave, suddenly froze.
After a long while, she slowly turned her head and looked at the figure who had already walked to the cla.s.sroom door.
The last sentence, “I want to drink milk tea,” sounded coquettish.
He had known her when she was at her most coquettish age, but he had never heard her act coquettishly before.
In his imagination, Ji Fengmian would never act coquettishly.
And now, although it was faint, he could still sense it.
He didn’t want to admit it.
That figure disappeared from the door without a trace of reluctance. He stood up. His tall and slender figure in a white s.h.i.+rt was especially eye-catching.
Under the gazes of the girls, he strode out of the cla.s.sroom.
At the door, he saw Ji Fengmian casually throwing a few books at a young man. Then, she took the paper cup from the man and took a sip.
Chu Jing looked at her rare satisfied expression and laughed helplessly. “Every time I see your expression, I can imagine how you despised it in the beginning. Doesn’t your face hurt?”
Ji Fengmian didn’t mind. “Why should I feel embarra.s.sed? I didn’t say I like it.”
Chu Jing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Then what is this? You look so satisfied even though you don’t like it.”
“Who says that I have to like it just because it satisfies me?”
Ji Fengmian took another sip and the two of them walked side by side towards the school gate. Chu Jing took a deep breath.
“With your twisted logic, I can’t win against you.”
“Even twisted logic is reasonable.”
Chu Jing was speechless.
She was right. Over the years, he had witnessed her twisted logic. But every time, he seemed to be successfully brainwashed by her.
“How was your university life?”
“It’s just a change of position to read. What else can I do?”
Chu Jing shut his mouth completely and didn’t want to talk to her anymore.
Ever since his father had brought his mother and him here and lived with her for so many years, he had never seen anything that she liked.
‘No.’
She didn’t even like him.
The Buddha lived like a Bodhisattva with no desires.
“Is it that difficult to admit that you like her?”
He had asked this question more than a hundred times over the years, but he had never received a proper answer.
Just like this time.
“If you like it, you can get it. Don’t waste your time doing childish and meaningless things. If I have the time, I can study the stocks and earn a huge sum of money. Isn’t it good to have fun?”
Chu Jing sighed deeply, his chest feeling heavy.
“It smells good.”
The two of them walked to the school gate. The milk tea in Ji Fengmian’s hand was empty and she threw it into the trash can. Chu Jing had already opened the car door and was waiting for her to get in.
Chu Boyang stood at the school gate and watched the car leave. It reminded him of the time she left the orphanage when she was young.
The intimacy between the two of them was natural.
Just like how she was unfamiliar with him… it was natural.
He had thought that it would be satisfying to see Ji Fengmian alive and well.
But the truth told him otherwise.
Satisfaction was still too far away.
It was like a bottomless pit that could never be filled.
During dinner, Uncle Chu happily asked his son the first question he asked her today.
“How’s university life?”
Ji Fengmian had a cup of milk tea to fill his stomach. The rice wasn’t that good, so he managed to stuff two mouthfuls.
“I’m fine.”
This answer was much better than Chu Jing’s.
Used to Ji Fengmian’s personality, this answer made Uncle Chu very happy.
“Is there anything you’re not satisfied with? If there is, I’ll inform the school tomorrow.”
Ji Fengmian paused. “…It’s alright.”
Chu Jing glanced at her.
After dinner, Ji Fengmian sat in the living room watching television. Chu Jing sat in front of him.
“Something happened at school?”
Ji Fengmian switched the channel to an entertainment gossip show and didn’t act dumb.
“… It’s not a big deal. I’m in the same cla.s.s as someone I don’t like.”
Chu Jing’s eyes darted around. “…Chu Boyang?”
Ji Fengmian watched as the celebrity entered the hotel with a director and took intimate photos. When she heard Chu Jing’s words, she nodded lightly. “Yes.”
Chu Jing narrowed his eyes and stared at her for a long time. “…Isn’t this a big deal? Are you sure you don’t want to transfer?”
“No.” Ji Fengmian changed the channel. “It’s not easy for me to get a seat.”
Chu Jing was speechless. It seemed like it wasn’t as important as a seat.
“Are you sure it’s not a reunion between childhood sweethearts?”
Ji Fengmian bent his legs and rested his arms on his knees. He pondered for a while before turning to look at him.
“And?”
Chu Jing was stunned. “What do you mean?”
“What about after a long separation? What else can happen?”
Chu Jing rolled his eyes and said angrily, “She might not be able to control her emotions and have a child!”
Ji Fengmian was stunned for a moment. “…Is this speed a rocket?”
Chu Jing pointed at her in shock. “You… Did you imagine it just now?!”
Ji Fengmian looked at him for two seconds before looking at the television again. He sneered and said, “…Yes, I can’t?”
“You…”
Chu Jing wanted to say something, but Ji Fengmian suddenly turned to look at him and stared at him for a few seconds.
Chu Jing s.h.i.+fted to the side. “What are you looking at?”
“I’m thinking about what it would be like to have a child with you…”
Chu Jing’s lips twitched as he stared at Ji Fengmian’s cold face. He asked carefully, “How is it?”
Ji Fengmian shook his head. “No chance.”
Chu Jing’s face darkened. “There’s no evidence!”
“No, I’ve watched you grow up naked. I don’t feel anything for your body…”
Chu Jing gritted his teeth. “Are you still a woman?!”
“Of course, I know that I’m a normal woman. Don’t tell me that I don’t have any fantasies about women now…”
Chu Jing was speechless.
Seeming to have discovered something interesting, Ji Fengmian placed his hand on the sofa behind him and propped his head up with a smile.
“Do you have a woman?”
Chu Jing hesitated for a long time without saying a word.
In the end, she stood up and said, “You’re indecent!”
Ji Fengmian stared at his red ears and laughed. “The prosperity of humans depends on these things. If you’re really inexperienced, I’ll bring you to broaden your horizons one day.”
Chu Jing glared at her fiercely. “You make it sound like you’ve been through hundreds of battles!”
Ji Fengmian raised an eyebrow. “At least I can think about it without batting an eyelid.”
“Ha, that’s amazing.”
“Yes, better than you.”
Chu Jing was speechless.
Too lazy to continue chatting with her, Chu Jing turned to go upstairs. However, he stopped halfway and turned to ask her curiously.
“So… what did you imagine the outcome between you and Chu Boyang?”
Ji Fengmian held the remote control and adjusted the channel in boredom. His calm face changed colors because of the screen. From the side, his eyes didn’t seem to have any emotions.
“… Not really.”
After a long while, Ji Fengmian finally gave an answer.
Chu Jing shrugged and heaved a sigh of relief.
“Don’t think about such things in the future, pervert!”
Sensing that Ji Fengmian was about to turn around, Chu Jing hurried upstairs.
The television stopped at the sports channel, which was broadcasting a special event.
All of them had good figures. They had long arms and legs, broad shoulders and narrow waists. They had eight-pack abs and their swimming posture was perfect.
The next second, the screen changed to the finance channel.
