Chapter 4400: Successfully Deceived Everyone (10)
Faced with the couple’s surprise, Qin Chu simply asked, “Do you dare to drink?”
“Of course I dare, why wouldn’t I dare? I’ve never accepted your alcohol tolerance,” Gao Ran yelled.
“I’m willing to risk my life for you,” Zhu Lingling laughed.
The three of them ate their supper quietly in the private restaurant.
Qin Chu seemed to be speaking more than usual.
Initially, the three of them were just having casual conversations. Later on, they started talking about their high school days.
“Hey, Chu... why do you like Huo Mian when there were so many beautiful girls at Second High?”
Gao Ran was a little drunk after three rounds of drinking, so he spoke without thinking.
Zhu Lingling pinched her husband.
“What are you talking about? What’s wrong with Mian? She’s so outstanding...”
“No, what I meant was that when we were in school, everyone was still young. At that age, they usually looked at the face... They don’t know about inner beauty... That’s why many boys have a crush on the school belle.”
“I get angry just thinking about it. Didn’t you also have a crush on the school belle, Wang Ranran?”
“Didn’t I change my target after my confession was rejected?” Gao Ran laughed.
Qin Chu watched the couple bicker and smiled quietly.
“Chu... if you could turn back time... would you still choose Mian?”
“Yes, I will.” Qin Chu didn’t even think about it.
“Look at him, look at you...”
Zhu Lingling shot him a disgusted look.
“Chu, can you tell me the truth? Huo Mian isn’t that pretty... why are you so fixated on her?”
Gao Ran always thought that Qin Chu wasn’t telling the truth.
Boys were visual animals. Everyone would like girls who looked good at first glance.
Qin Chu flicked the ash off his cigarette as his thoughts drifted back to many years ago.
“It’s just a feeling. When I see her, I feel... my heart racing... It’s a familiar feeling.”
Although many years had passed, he still remembered the first time he saw Huo Mian in person at school.
Qin Chu still felt his heart skipping...
It was an unforgettable feeling.
“Haha, Chu, if you were to go back in time, would you have gone back to attend kindergarten with Huo Mian? Then, you could know her a few more years?”
Gao Ran was just joking.
To his surprise, Qin Chu replied in all seriousness, “I’m not that greedy. If I could turn back time, I probably wouldn’t have left the country... so that I would not have lost the seven years we spent apart.”
Zhu Lingling and Gao Ran looked at each other in silence.
It turned out that Qin Chu cared about the seven years he spent apart from Huo Mian...
No one knew how he spent his days and nights abroad; he almost always missed Huo Mian.
Seven years was not a short period of time. How many people could endure seven years without changing their hearts?
Others didn’t know how Qin Chu felt towards Huo Mian, but Gao Ran and Zhu Lingling did.
They had witnessed them from the beginning to the end...
Qin Chu and Huo Mian had been through so much together...
Thinking about how Huo Mian was nowhere to be found, Gao Ran suddenly felt sorry for Qin Chu.
“Chu... everything will pass... everything will get better.”
Gao Ran comforted him.
“Gao, Lingling, let’s arrange an engagement between our children,” Qin Chu suddenly said.
“Sure, aren’t we already in-laws?” Zhu Lingling thought it was a joke.
“I’m not joking this time, I’m serious. If something happens to Mian and me one day, please take care of my kids...”
After Qin Chu said this, Gao Ran and Zhu Lingling’s expressions changed.
“Chu, what are you talking about?” Gao Ran’s expression darkened.
