Chapter 93: Chapter 93: It’s Over, You’ve Fallen in Love!
He deliberately chose an open area without trees for cover, so no one could eavesdrop on his phone call.
Just as the phone was about to stop ringing, Qin Jiangsheng tapped to answer.
Qu Rong’s voice came through, “You finally answered the call; I’ve been looking for you for two days.”
“What’s the matter?”
“Ninth Young Master has a task for you, related to Mr. Bai.” Qu Rong paused and, noticing only the sound of breathing from the other end, began to suspect that Qin Jiangsheng was an emotionless robot. So he decided to put that aside for now and took an interest in teasing this block of wood.
“Young Master Qin, have you been off dating a beauty lately? Always playing disappearing acts.”
“Dating… a beauty?” Qin Jiangsheng finally showed some reaction, his tone confused and a bit slow, “Dating… how do you do that?”
Qu Rong snickered, “Oh, there’s a situation here. You’re almost an adult and you don’t even know how to date? Went through nine years of compulsory education for nothing?”
Qin Jiangsheng looked up at the darkening sky, a brief pause in the rain as if it were brewing a bigger downpour, “I only did three years.”
Qu Rong choked up; indeed, it had been only three years. Qin Jiangsheng had wandered from place to place as a child and had no opportunity for an education, but some people are natural geniuses. Even without formal education, their minds surpass those of ordinary people.
“Tsk, you’ve studied three years and still don’t know about dating? That’s a waste. Of course, to date, you need to have a girl you like, right? Do you have one?”
This was a complete blind spot for Qin Jiangsheng, who hesitated, “What does like mean?”
Qu Rong: “…”
Not even knowing what ‘like’ means, should he teach him how to undress and get into bed?
But Qu Rong didn’t quite understand ‘like’ either. He usually fell for everyone he saw, moving on to the next if one didn’t work out, living the life of a playboy.
However, at this moment, he felt a beam of light called ‘guidance’ shining upon him.
For a kid like Qin Jiangsheng, who was utterly clueless about emotions, he was determined to teach him!
“Hold on a second, I’m going to check Baidu.”
“You have to look it up? Can’t you understand it by yourself?” Qin Jiangsheng’s tone was lightly mocking, as if he were really beyond hope.
Qu Rong: “…” Not everyone had a genius brain like him.
“Tch, you’re so smart but you don’t understand it either. Never mind, let me explain it to you.” Qu Rong pondered for a moment before starting to analyze from the beginning, “She’s a girl, right?”
Qin Jiangsheng: “…”
As for the silence from Qin Jiangsheng, it did not dampen his enthusiasm, “Do you know her name?”
“I do.”
“How tall is she?”
“I know.”
“How old?”
The hand holding Qin Jiangsheng’s phone showed veins bulging slightly before he slowly replied, “I know that too.”
“Done!” Qu Rong exclaimed, “You’ve fallen in love!”
“?”
“Is that it?”
Qu Rong hummed lightly, “What else then? You understand all this about her, if that’s not liking, then what is?”
Qin Jiangsheng pondered carefully and felt that Qu Rong didn’t seem to have a problem, “So what should I do next?”
“Don’t rush, what’s her reaction?”
Reaction?
Qin Jiangsheng thought about Ji Tian from beginning to end and finally felt a warmth in his face. If it weren’t for the darkness, one might have seen a suspicious blush spreading across his cheeks, “She… she really wants to take off my clothes, also wants to hold my hand, she’s very nice to me.”
After speaking, he added another line, “Exceptionally nice to me.”
“Ts, no question about it, she likes you too! Isn’t this just like the mutual rush in romance dramas? Wooo, how did such a beautiful love encounter a loser like me? Young Master Qin, go for it, your brother supports you from behind.”
Ji Tian… also likes him?
“This situation is easy to handle, just go and confess! Hesitation will lead to defeat, and you can also drop hints about the things you like, to keep her thinking about you. At the same time, you have to care more about her, make her unable to let go of you. You must play hard to get, to keep her hooked firmly, and don’t act as if you’re worthless.”
“Or you could just skip grades and go directly to university. High school students aren’t allowed to… cough, you know, so once you graduate, it won’t be an issue.” Qu Rong said this subtly; even if he usually played around, Qin Jiangsheng was just a pure-hearted seventeen-year-old boy now, and he suddenly became more reserved.
“What’s ‘you know’?”
Qu Rong: “…”
Truly a pure-hearted high school boy.
During fights and brawls, you wouldn’t see this young man’s demeanor. Now, he seemed determined to get to the bottom of things.
When delivering illegal goods, he was cold and aloof, famously unsociable in Black City A3 District.
“‘You know’ means intimate contact; that’s not hard to understand, right?”
Qin Jiangsheng understood.
The most intimate thing he ever did with Ji Tian was an accidental kiss.
“I know, I’ve already done it.”
Qu Rong: “???”
“Hanging up, I’m heading back.”
“??? Hey!”
After hanging up the phone, Qu Rong still couldn’t believe it?
Already done it?
Done what exactly, why not clarify it for him?
He stared at his phone for a full minute before remembering that he hadn’t told Qin Jiangsheng about Mo Jiu assigning him to help bring Bai Tingyu and Ji Tian together!
So he called again, only to be met with the busy tone of a turned-off phone.
“…”
So fast to hang up; worried about not being able to confess?
Forget it, he would just wait for Qin Jiangsheng to finish the show and asked him to come to Black City A3 District. There was a transaction that needed him to personally take care of.
…
At the entrance of the small western-style house, Qin Jiangsheng ran into Gong Yu.
He was returning from Quan Jingyou’s place, it seemed he had settled Ji Weinan in.
Ever since he joined this show, he seldom spoke with outsiders. Even though Gong Yu also lived in the same western-style house, he treated him like a stranger, ignoring him completely.
Before he could enter, Gong Yu reached out to stop him.
Qin Jiangsheng paused, neither of them differing much in height, his tea-brown eyes faintly holding a snowy chill, reserved and indifferent, while Gong Yu maintained his congenial gentleness.
“You really surprised me,” Gong Yu finally spoke, his voice smooth and smiling: “I thought you would maintain your indifferent nature, but when it comes to Ji Tian, you revealed something.”
Qin Jiangsheng tilted his head slightly, his tone cool: “What are you trying to say?”
“You like her.” An extremely firm tone.
If everyone said that he liked her, it might just be a fact. He nodded slightly, without evasion: “Yeah.”
Gong Yu: “…”
He thought this guy would at least try to conceal it, but he didn’t expect an upfront acknowledgment, openly admitting it.
But what was the use of admitting it?
Gong Yu chuckled lightly: “Do you think, with your current status, you’re worthy? Would the Ji Family let a powerless illegitimate son become their son-in-law? It might be too early to talk about this since we’re only in our second year of high school, but even if you graduate at eighteen, I don’t think you can change this situation.”
Seeing the person silent, Gong Yu leaned closer, his voice so quiet that only the two of them could hear: “Let me tell you another secret, the Bai Family and the Ji Family have an engagement token. In big family alliances, heirs are always the first choice. Do you think you can win her over?”
What do you think?
