Chapter 142: I hate someone, No reason_1

"So, you don’t happen to have a thing for Lu Qingyi, do you..."

Liang Zhou hesitantly asked. He looked at the tightly closed door and then at Ye Chenxuan.

He previously even thought that Ye Chenxuan liked Lu Jiayue, and hadn’t considered this possibility.

Ye Chenxuan: "Yes..."

"Who else could be worse for you to fall for than Lu Qingyi? Do you know who her boyfriend is?"

His eyes wide in disbelief, Liang Zhou stared at Ye Chenxuan. He had previously entertained the thought of being with Lu Qingyi but now, wouldn’t dare.

Beautiful girls always attract admirers, and Liang Zhou, naturally, isn’t immune to a pretty face.

While many may not know what Xu Boyan looks like, who in this villa complex doesn’t know him?

Xu Boyan is influential in Kyoto.

Admittedly, he’s somewhat intimidated by Xu Boyan.

If he hadn’t seen Xu Boyan in person, he wouldn’t have imagined that the gentle man from before could be Xu Boyan.

"I know, he’s the convenience store owner at our school."

Just from his clothing, Ye Chenxuan knew that Xu Boyan wouldn’t be just a convenience store owner, but his understanding of Xu Boyan was limited to only this.

Liang Zhou: "..."

The convenience store owner at Jin City High School?

Damn!

Questioning what he heard, Liang Zhou didn’t believe it was possible for Xu Boyan to be a convenience store owner.

That was completely illogical. Ignoring his massive company to run a convenience store at Jin City High was simply inconceivable.

"Are you sure you’re not fooling around with me?"

Liang Zhou asked as his mouth twitched slightly.

Laughable, this joke isn’t funny at all.

Ye Chenxuan looked serious, "No."

"His name is Xu Boyan—don’t you know him?"

Liang Zhou asked. Many people in Kyoto were familiar with Xu Boyan.

"I know."

Ye Chenxuan, naturally, would not connect this Xu Boyan with that Xu Boyan. He wasn’t thinking too deeply about it.

Liang Zhou: "..."

Damn, how could Ye Chenxuan remain so calm?

That is Xu Boyan we’re talking about!

Liang Zhou reminded him: "Kyoto’s Xu Boyan."

Ye Chenxuan: "..."

Surprise was the only thing in his mind. He finally processed the shocking realization.

No way, right?

How could such a person possibly run a convenience store at Jin City High?

Ye Chenxuan: "...It can’t be right?"

It was too absurd.

"If he was just a convenience store owner, how can he afford a villa here at Seaview Villa?"

Liang Zhou countered.

Although Seaview Villa is a villa complex, it has multiple tiers, and the two best villas were purchased by Xu Boyan and Lu Qingyi.

He used to believe that Lu Qingyi was a rich heiress, so it made sense for her to afford the villa. Now, the revelation was quite a shock.

Exactly, if Xu Boyan was just a convenience store owner, how could he afford a house in Kyoto? And even one of the best villas in Seaview Villa at that.

Just as Lu Qingyi sat down on the sofa, her phone rang.

It was an unknown number, Lu Qingyi immediately hung up without hesitation.

Suddenly, the call came through again. She hung up, yet it rang once more—it was a relentless cycle.

Feeling irritated, Lu Qingyi slid to answer and turned on speaker.

"Yiyi, why did you leave?"

On the other end of the line was Wen Linyu. His tone was full of pain, as he stared incessantly at the closed door—an unbearable heartache.

He rang the doorbell for a long time with no one answering. He checked the security camera to see that Lu Qingyi hadn’t returned since she left.

She didn’t come back.

Wen Linyu knew, Lu Qingyi would never return to this home.

Does she detest him to this extent?

Wen Linyu lowered his head to his legs, placed his hands gently on top of them, and wore a desolate expression.

Had it not been for that accident, had he not taken the injury for Lu Qingyi, perhaps she wouldn’t even give him a second glance.

Ruthless woman.

Lu Qingyi remained silent and didn’t hang up the phone, but her eyes brimmed with coldness.

Heh.

"Why do you despise me?"

Wen Linyu asked, his voice was somewhat gravelly.

Why must she despise him?

He did nothing at all, he only wanted to see Lu Qingyi. He hadn’t considered using his condition to force Lu Qingyi’s hand.

All he wanted was to see Lu Qingyi, that’s it!

But why does Lu Qingyi never even grant him a smile?

Wen Linyu felt he hadn’t done anything wrong.

"I don’t need a reason to dislike someone."

Lu Qingyi spoke, her voice cold and devoid of emotion.

She was always indifferent, never particularly fond of anyone, never too enthusiastic about anyone. Her dislike for Wen Linyu gradually came from a slow accumulation.

She absolutely loathed being blackmailed.

"Yiyi, tell me what you dislike about me, I can change."

Wen Linyu’s voice was almost pleading, it softened.

His hands tightly gripped the phone, veins clearly visible. It was evident he was exerting a lot of force.

Hearing those words "I despise you" uttered from the lips of the girl he liked felt as if he was being stabbed with a needle. He could barely breathe.

It was suffocating.

Lu Qingyi didn’t respond. She emotionlessly hung up the phone.

What did she dislike about Wen Linyu?

If you dislike someone, you just do. There doesn’t need to be a reason.

When you despise someone, no matter what he changes, you still won’t like him.

The call was suddenly terminated. Wen Linyu was somewhat caught off guard as he set down his phone. His hand loosened, and the phone fell to the ground.

Rejected his call again.

"Young Master, let’s go back. Miss Lu won’t be coming back."

As an outsider, Wen Bo could clearly see what was happening. He felt sorry for Wen Linyu, but Wen Linyu just didn’t seem to get it.

No, it wasn’t that Wen Linyu didn’t understand. He just didn’t want to.

With Lu Qingyi’s attitude being as it is, Wen Linyu should wake up to reality.

Why keep deceiving himself?

"Wen Bo, I just wanted to see her."

Wen Linyu spoke, his tone was somewhat self-deprecating.

Could he not even see her?

Lu Qingyi really was heartless.

"Young Master, there are some things you should understand."

Wen Bo shook his head helplessly. Wen Linyu clearly knew everything, he was just deceiving himself.

Lu Qingyi didn’t like Wen Linyu. This was as clear to Wen Linyu as it would’ve been if he were looking into a mirror—he was merely too unwilling to admit it.

All he wanted was to deceive himself and others.

"Wen Bo, I don’t want to understand. Why is it Xu Boyan?"

Wen Linyu asked.

Lu Qingyi was such an icy person. A warmer-hearted person would’ve been a better match for her, but why did she choose Xu Boyan in the end?

Xu Boyan was such a cold person. Two cold individuals together....!

Wen Linyu didn’t understand. Why was Lu Qingyi together with Xu Boyan?
