When faced with such a situation, even a clay figurine would get angry. Even if Xu Le was a rock, he had the word "resentment" engraved on it. What angered him the most was that he didn't even know what went wrong. How did the trees in the pear garden become covered with snow in one night? How did the two moons in the sky collide? How did day become night? How did the two people who were on good terms just a moment ago become strangers?
Xu Le was a wild bull that he despised, but this was his first love. In the words that he never forgot to remind Zhang Xiaomeng, this was also his first night. It was impossible for his emotions to immediately brighten up, so when he shook hands with Hai Qingzhou, he subconsciously used more strength. Of course, his facial expression was still very good.
"Congratulations, congratulations." Shi Qinghai raised a large glass of beer and laughed at the unhappy Xu Le. He sincerely congratulated him, "I've seen a lot of one-night stands, but a one-day boyfriend like you is really rare."
His congratulations were sincere because he no longer had to worry about any problems between Zhang Xiaomeng and Xu Le. However, these words sounded like vicious mockery to Xu Le's ears. He took a big gulp of beer and frowned. "This situation is a little strange. I can't accept it."
"Did you and … Zhang Xiaomeng sleep together?" Shi Qinghai lit a cigarette and threw the cigarette box over. The problem was that this guy was really too handsome. No matter how sneaky he looked, it was impossible to dislike him.
Xu Le was stunned. He immediately thought of that night when he saw the elf wearing the devil's horns. That beautiful and unforgettable time. However, from the perspective of a girl, he couldn't tell the truth to this bad friend in front of him. He shook his head.
Shi Qinghai leaned back and sighed. "I can't accept it. You know how I look at beautiful girls … If Zhang Xiaomeng didn't wear those black-rimmed glasses in bed, she would definitely be a beautiful little girl. What a pity, what a pity."
When Xu Le heard this, he was a little annoyed. He glared at him angrily and took out a cigarette from the pack and lit it up. Shi Qinghai frowned and said, "It seems that you are serious … But she only kissed you in the restaurant. That doesn't mean anything. Women are fickle. Maybe she will realize that you have no future after staying at home for two days … A sensitive woman will think that a man is riding a white horse when she sees him. But a rational woman will analyze whether the white horse is rented or bought, and whether the horse is pure or not …"
Regarding the matters between men and women, Young Master Shi, as always, hit the nail on the head and was incomparably sharp. However, Xu Le did not listen to these words at all. He was carefully reflecting on his relationship with Zhang Xiaomeng in the past few days and why such a change had happened. Suddenly, he looked up and said, "Xiaomeng likes me."
Shi Qinghai was stunned for a moment and shook his head. He gave him a thumbs up and said, "This is the first time I see you being narcissistic. It's just like how you used to smile obscenely. It's quite like me."
Xu Le ignored him. He continued to frown and analyze while smoking. "Since she likes me but doesn't want to admit our relationship, then it must be because of our relationship, which is a huge obstacle to something."
"Matters between men and women will only affect matters between men and women. Recently, she has the son of a senator around her. According to my sources, they got to know each other at a family gathering in the Zhang Family."
"You have sources?" Shi Qinghai looked at him in surprise.
Xu Le said calmly, "I used a pearl necklace to bribe the girl next to Xiaomeng. Continue, Xiao Meng is not a vain person. Even if she wants to be with that plain porridge and side dish, she would not be so stupid to choose such a method and such a time to end our relationship. If I make a scene … "
Xu Le did not mention what happened that night. If they were to really make things too unpleasant for both parties, this kind of thing would spread. It would be extremely harmful to the development of Zhang Xiaomeng and Hai Qingzhou's relationship.
"… More importantly, I've only just started with her. Any normal woman would be an emotional woman at this time. In your words, she won't even notice what kind of white horse I'm riding. "
"Continue." Shi Qinghai was obviously interested because he realized that Xu Le's analysis was indeed reasonable.
"So she wants to be closer to Hai Qingzhou, not because she likes him, but because she needs to be closer to him during this period of time." Xu Le's words were a bit awkward, but the logic was becoming clearer. His knife-like eyebrows raised, and his calm eyes looked past Shi Qinghai's face to look outside the bar. "As for the reason, I am not very clear. Of course, you won't help me investigate."
"Alright, the Federation Investigation Bureau does not care about breakups."
Xu Le suddenly frowned and said, "Last time at the entrance of the nightclub, Hai Qingzhou was with the Zou family siblings. You once told me that Zou Yu had already entered Ewha University … Could it be that Zhang Xiaomeng wants to get close to Zou Yu through Hai Qingzhou? But why does she want to get close to Zou Yu? You said that Zou Yu's father is a high-ranking official in the Ministry of National Defense … Oh my god … Could it be that Xiaomeng is really working for the anti-government forces? "
Shi Qinghai's heart trembled. He did not expect Xu Le to be able to deduce so many things randomly, but his expression did not change. He said mockingly, "Don't find so many strange reasons for yourself. This is too complicated. It's a pity that you don't work for the Federation Investigation Bureau. Those intelligence analysts only know how to analyze the blueprints of battleships' main cannons from the trash … They are all idiots."
Xu Le smiled bitterly. He knew that his analysis was too ridiculous. It was all to make himself understand and to make himself feel better. How could a girl like Xiaomeng, who would eat the wrong biscuit, be a spy? But at this time, he did not know that his analysis was infinitely close to the truth.
…
…
"Not only are there no deep-fried pancakes today, there's no supper at all." Tai Zhiyuan said into the intercom with a sullen expression. He had just decided not to let Butler Jin prepare supper, but he did not expect that the guy on the other side would dare to forget to bring supper.
Xu Le's feeble reply came from the intercom, "I'm in a bad mood today, so I forgot about it. You won't die even if you miss out on a meal."
Hearing the rude words, Childe Si subconsciously prepared to get angry. But he suddenly understood that the guy on the other side, who was always cheerful, actually said that he was in a bad mood. He was instantly overwhelmed by a strong sense of curiosity. He frowned and asked, "What happened?"
Xu Le's monotonous voice sounded particularly dejected, "I think I just fell in love, but then I mysteriously fell out of love."
"Hmm?" For some reason, Tai Zhiyuan, who looked at those files every day, was suddenly interested in the gossip of the guy in the room. He asked, "Tell me about it."
Xu Le, who was sitting in the mecha's operating cabin with his legs crossed and staring blankly at the high ceiling, suddenly had a thought when he heard the voice coming from the intercom. He thought that perhaps this mysterious fellow could really help him see some problems. That rogue official Shi Qinghai was full of hormones — he was really not a good candidate for studying relationship problems. Moreover, this mysterious fellow did not know who he was, so there were many things that were inconvenient for him to say. Li Hua University would not be able to spread rumors about Zhang Xiaomeng anyway.
After making up his mind, Xu Le very seriously recounted everything that had happened between him and Zhang Xiaomeng. He did not even avoid the events of that night. Of course, he did not mention the details, and he also left out some parts that might expose his and Zhang Xiaomeng's identities.
The intercom was silent for a while, and then the other side suddenly asked, "How long did you last?"
A drop of cold sweat trickled down Xu Le's temple. He naturally knew that the other side was definitely not asking about how long he had lasted in the lowest level 6 test. After struggling for a long time, he lowered his voice and gave an approximate time in shame.
The other side of the intercom was silent for an even longer time, and then came a burst of exaggerated laughter and a sentence that easily pierced Xu Le's strong heart. "Actually didn't last as long as you did for level 6 … no wonder that woman doesn't want you."
Xu Le said resentfully, "Isn't it like this the first time?" Suddenly, he stared at the intercom and said mockingly, "You don't even know this? You're probably still a virgin."
Tai Zhiyuan, who had been laughing loudly, stopped abruptly. He stared at the intercom, and after a long while, he pretended to be calm and changed the topic. "A woman's heart is like a needle that has sunk to the bottom of the sea. You'll never find it."
He didn't want to pay any more attention to Xu Le's childish and boring emotional twists and turns, so he said coldly, "Begin."
Last night, the outwardly gentle but innately proud young master of the Tai family had been defeated by Xu Le for the first time. Tai Zhiyuan had thought that this was a coincidence, or perhaps it was because Xu Le had not brought porridge to eat last night, causing him to perform less well. And today, he had adjusted all his emotions, preparing to give Xu Le a painful and unforgettable mecha education.
However … five minutes later, Tai Zhiyuan's forcefully suppressed voice rang out once more from the intercom. "You just had sex yesterday, so let's say you took an aphrodisiac. Then what medicine did you take today?!"
Sweating profusely, Xu Le stared at the numbers on the screen with lingering fear. Immersed in the violent thrill of beating up the opponent's mecha, he said, "I just broke up today. Of course what I took was gunpowder."
…
…
The taste of breaking up was not a good feeling, especially when you couldn't find the reason and couldn't make heads or tails of it. Regardless of whether he was a rock or she was a shrew, every man and woman in puberty had the most delicate and sensitive nerves in their life. Sighs and groans were all caused by the sadness and joy of separation and reunion. Even the slightest change in emotion would be magnified countless times by the young people in the midst of it. Ten years later, they might be able to laugh off their past stubbornness, but ten years ago, no one would be able to escape this hurdle.
In the classroom filled with holographic diagrams, Xu Le narrowed his eyes at the girl sitting in the front row with Hai Qingzhou. He thought to himself, What is love? Love is not a thing.
