Chapter Thirty-two: Love Cannot Be Forced
Just as I was about to go downstairs and have dinner with Fang Wenke and Zhao Jun, Jiang Yun suddenly stopped me in a serious tone.
Her sudden cry made my back vertebrae numb, and I always felt that she might say something next that would make me a little overwhelmed.
Sure, here is the translation:
"Sure enough, she walked up to me, without even looking up at me, and said: 'Can you help me ask Zhao Jun why he dislikes me so much? I've looked for him many times but he's always rejected me. I'm not afraid of losing face, but I just can't stop liking him.'"
Jiang Yun finished speaking, and tears fell down uncontrollably. Liang Xue beside her looked at me with a complex expression, not making a sound.
I gently wiped away Jiang Yun's tears and comforted her, saying: "Don't worry! I'll ask him for you, don't cry, it will make us sad if you always do this!"
Jiang Yun nodded and lay back down on the bed, while I grabbed my coat and ran downstairs.
When I got downstairs, Fang Wenke and Zhao Jun were there laughing with each other, looking just like real brothers. But I still had to pretend to ask: "How did you two get together? You two have been getting along well lately! Fang Wenke, you're not into men, are you?"
It's obvious that they were embarrassed by my question. Fang Wenke hastily explained, "I'm a straight man, okay? You're also eating men's vinegar? We just finished practicing taekwondo in the gym and happened to come out together to grab some food."
I raised an eyebrow and took a glance at Fang Wenke, saying: "Alright! For now, I'll believe you're a straight man!"
The three of us casually found a restaurant outside the school, ordered two dishes and one soup. Zhao Jun sat opposite me and Fang Wenke, the atmosphere was very harmonious.
However, although the atmosphere was harmonious, I still had an important task to complete, which was to ask Zhao Jun about Jiang Yun.
She swiftly opened a pair of chopsticks and handed them over to Zhao Jun, then asked him: "Zhao Jun, do you have a girlfriend?"
Obviously, this sudden question stunned Fang Wenke and Zhao Jun. After being stunned for two seconds, Zhao Jun took over the chopsticks and said: "Of course not! Why ask this? Are you going to introduce a girlfriend to me?"
"No! No! Ah! I won't go around in circles with you anymore! Actually, Jiang Yun asked me to ask you, why do you dislike her so much? She's been in a terrible state recently, did you reject her?"
When Zhao Jun heard Jiang Yun's name, he reflexively looked up at me and smiled: "That girl is pretty good, but unfortunately I really don't like her, she's too delicate."
"Isn't being delicate a bad thing? Being delicate is so feminine! I think it's not easy to be delicate!" I retorted.
Fang glared at me fiercely and said, "You're quite proud of yourself, huh?"
"Hmph! Even if I'm like this, you still like me just the same!" I also glared at Fang Wenke, and he obediently behaved himself.
Soon, the dishes were served, and I didn't ask about Jiang Yun's affairs anymore.
Actually, everyone knows it in their hearts. From Zhao Jun's eyes, I can also see that he really doesn't like Jiang Yun. Maybe it's just that everyone has different tastes, or maybe there's something about Jiang Yun that Zhao Jun can't accept.
In short, love is something that can't be forced.
