Chapter 346 Two-in-one
"Oh...haha, then I really didn't do well enough, I will change it in the future!" Li Zhuangsheng didn't take it as an offense, he touched his head and laughed.

"Aren't you angry when I say this?" Yao Xingyu was a little surprised.

Li Zhuangsheng smiled and said, "Why should I be angry? Some people like me, some people hate me, it's all normal."

Yao Xingyu opened his eyes wide and stared at Li Zhuangsheng's face, making sure that he was not being sarcastic but was calm.

"Then do you know why I hate you?"

Yao Xingyu's tone softened a little.

"Is it related to Zhu Zhixue?" Li Zhuangsheng asked.

"you know?"

“I know roughly, but I don’t know the details.”

"I really don't know why Zhu Zhixue likes you so much!" Yao Xingyu exhaled, "She doesn't like being touched by others, but she took the initiative to contact you."

"Ha ha……"

"You are quite capable and you are very talented in writing novels. But I still think you are not worthy of her. She has liked you since the first year of high school. Can't you see it? I don't understand why you always pretend not to know to hook her! And Zhu Zhixue got her ears pierced that day and showed it to you so happily, but you had that attitude. Do you know how angry I was when I saw that? You and Hu Mengdie are always unclear. I don't know how many times she has cried in front of me. Last semester, she even had a fight with Hu Mengdie. I saw her face was swollen! But you did nothing. You are really not like a man!"

Yao Xingyu's words were like a machine gun, and he became more and more angry as he spoke. Li Zhuangsheng listened silently, neither defending himself nor refuting.

"Well, I didn't do well enough before. I apologize to you."

Li Zhuangsheng lowered his head slightly.

This frank attitude of apology once again caught Yao Xingyu off guard. In fact, she felt a little regretful after she said this, because these words were mainly to vent her dissatisfaction, which could easily lead to a quarrel with Li Zhuangsheng.

Anyone who was criticized by outsiders would feel dissatisfied. Yao Xingyu was even ready to quarrel with Li Zhuangsheng.

"You don't have to apologize to me... I'm just an outsider." Yao Xingyu turned his face away unnaturally, "You should apologize to Zhu Zhixue!"

"No, even so I should apologize to you because I didn't do it well before, and you are Zhu Zhixue's best friend. I know you care about her and are standing up for her."

Yao Xingyu snorted lightly, and felt a little at a loss, not knowing how to respond.

"Don't flatter me. I won't say anything good about you anyway!" Yao Xingyu said in panic.

Moreover, it was useless to say bad things about Li Zhuangsheng. In Zhu Zhixue's heart, Li Zhuangsheng's status was far greater than her and Zeng Chen. If she said something really unpleasant, Zhu Zhixue would probably just turn against her.

This stinky woman really values ​​women over friendship!
"Actually, I'm very happy that you told me this. I think you really care about her." Li Zhuangsheng sincerely asked, "I hope Zhixue is lucky to have a friend like you. I hope you can continue to be her friend in the future."

"You don't have to tell me... my relationship with her will definitely not be affected by you!"

Yao Xingyu's face turned even redder, and his anger disappeared before he could vent it, leaving only an inexplicable embarrassment, as if he was the one who was looking for trouble.

"Well, thank you." Li Zhuangsheng said with a smile.

"Hmph, and one more thing, stop flirting with Lin Yuehua and Hu Mengdie in the future! You don't know how much Zhu Zhixue loves you. If you dare to cheat on me in the future, I won't let you go!"

Yao Xingyu once again uttered a harsh word and fled.

She felt that her original rhythm was completely disrupted. She had originally wanted to praise Li Zhuangsheng for carrying the heaviest bag all day without complaining or feeling tired! How could she say that now that she was like this?

However, she finally understood why Zhu Zhixue liked Li Zhuangsheng.

Li Zhuangsheng lowered his head and smiled, not feeling unhappy with Yao Xingyu. No matter what, Zhu Zhixue should cherish the fact that she has such a caring friend. Li Zhuangsheng would only help her maintain this relationship.

Suddenly, Yao Xingyu came back with a red face.

"what else……"

Before Li Zhuangsheng finished speaking, he saw Yao Xingyu quickly go into the women's bathroom. She was there to use the toilet.

……

Not long after returning to the KTV box, Yao Xingyu also came back and whispered with Zhu Zhixue, and then the other two girls also joined in the discussion.

Li Zhuangsheng listened for a while and found out that it was a boy from another class who confessed his love to Yao Xingyu. Yao Xingyu didn't seem to be averse to this boy. He wondered whether he should give it a try, but was still a little hesitant.

The three girls expressed three different opinions. Zhu Zhixue was probably immersed in love and thought love was wonderful, so she encouraged her to give it a try. Li Xiuyu had an indifferent attitude and thought that if you didn't really like the other person, there was no need to fall in love just for the sake of falling in love. Yi Yunshui held a negative attitude and did not support Yao Xingyu's casual dating with boys, and her words showed extreme distrust of boys.

"What do you think about Yao Xingyu's matter?"

Zhu Zhixue held the hand of Li Zhuangsheng, who had remained silent, and shook it gently. Yao Xingyu also looked at him expectantly.

In Zhu Zhixue's opinion, Li Zhuangsheng was much more mature than her, and his opinion must be the best. And after what happened just now, Yao Xingyu also inexplicably trusted Li Zhuangsheng.

"This one……"

Li Zhuangsheng blinked and really didn't want to answer.

Because he really didn't know Yao Xingyu, he was just a otaku in high school before his rebirth. Although Yao Xingyu was on the list of heroines who fantasized about the youth love story in the second dimension happening in reality, it was just a fantasy.

Before his rebirth, his impression of Yao Xingyu was only that she was pretty and tall, and was a good friend of Zhu Zhixue. He once said good things about Zhu Zhixue and that she was a decent person.

Zhang Qixiang once told him about Yao Xingyu's recent situation, but he didn't pay much attention and forgot it as soon as he heard it.

He remembered that Yao Xingyu seemed to have had a boyfriend in her second year of high school, but he didn't know how they got along. It might have been good or it might not have been good. Anyway, Yao Xingyu broke up with him before graduating from high school.

Because at the graduation ceremony after the college entrance examination, he sat in the back row with Yao Xingyu and heard Yao Xingyu and Zeng Chen say that they would seriously look for a handsome guy to date in college, as the quality of high school boys was too poor. I guess she must have been single at that time.

Since you don't have a grasp of his past, it's better not to speak carelessly now.

From the perspective of results, if there is no good result, then dating is unnecessary. But a bad result does not mean a bad process. Maybe the other person still remembers the sweet and sour love in high school?
Since he doesn't know what is good or bad, Li Zhuangsheng is unwilling to casually point fingers at other people's lives, nor does he want to take this responsibility. If others get hurt, he will think it is his own problem.

"It depends on you. If you like him, then talk to him. If you don't like him that much, it's best not to settle for it." Li Zhuangsheng said.

In fact, Li Zhuangsheng never really understood what was wrong with those who dated for the sake of dating. They liked dating itself more than liking each other. Moreover, some people did not like each other that much before dating, but after dating, they had the title of "boyfriend and girlfriend" and could hold hands and kiss naturally.

It seemed that the moment they started dating, their favorability level automatically increased by more than 50.

"They are really like siblings, they have exactly the same views." Yi Yunshui sighed with a smile. Li Zhuangsheng was stunned, and Li Xiuyu shrugged indifferently. In fact, he knew that Li Xiuyu said this just to avoid trouble. Unlike his starting point, Li Xiuyu has always been indifferent to other people's affairs.

But it is also true that despite their different starting points, two people often make the same judgment on the same thing.

Li Zhuangsheng didn't care about Yi Yunshui's words, but Zhu Zhixue's face looked a little ugly. Why didn't Li Zhuangsheng speak to her, but to Li Xiuyu? She was a little jealous!

"But, when many people are in love, they don't like each other from the beginning. Don't they just fall in love as they talk?" Zhu Zhixue said, trying to get Li Zhuangsheng to support her words.

"That's true, but when it comes to love, it's better to find someone you like. At least it will be sweet at the beginning. Otherwise, you may feel unbalanced when you recall it later." Mr. Li shook his head.

When it comes to things that may affect other people's future, his views have always been more cautious. Of course, one thing he didn't say is that girls should be more cautious in love, because some boys will care.

Of course, this statement is totally incorrect nowadays, so he didn't say it.

Zhu Zhixue pouted and hit him lightly on the waist. Li Zhuangsheng was slightly startled, and he looked down at her, realizing that she was unhappy.

"In fact, I think that the most important thing about dating someone is that it's a two-way relationship. Only when two people like each other can they be happy every day, and when they break up, they look forward to seeing each other the next day, just like me and Xiaoxue." Li Zhuangsheng cleared his throat and added, "You will definitely not be happy when facing someone you don't like that much!"

"Hey - I was counting on you to give me some advice, but I didn't expect you to show off your love in front of me!" Yao Xingyu looked disgusted.

Zhu Zhixue blushed slightly, then smiled again. She coughed and quickly changed her stance: "I think he's right. It's better to find someone you like. Do you have a boyfriend you like now?"

Yao Xingyu curled her lips: "Look at you two, husband and wife, following each other's lead... Actually, I haven't thought about it that much now. There are no handsome guys in our class... Ahem, the only handsome guy is allowed to date you!"

Actually, you don't have to make excuses for me like this. You're making me even more embarrassed by saying this! Li Zhuangsheng thought.

"Looking handsome or not is not the most important thing. I don't think it's necessary to pursue his appearance too much. You also have to look at his other inner qualities!"

Li Zhuangsheng felt that it was necessary to give a fair name to the other boys in the class except him. What's wrong with you if you are not handsome? Not everyone can be as handsome as me!

"I think appearance is the most important!" Yao Xingyu said firmly, "Without a handsome appearance, who would be willing to see his soul!"

"That makes sense..." Zhu Zhixue nodded in agreement, then hugged Li Zhuangsheng's arm and said half-jokingly, "But there are many handsome guys in other classes too, don't fall for my Li Zhuangsheng!"

No, when people praise Li Zhuangsheng, they are just being polite. Do you take it seriously? Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder! Is it true that if he is really handsome, can we call him the school hunk?
Except for Zhu Zhixue, everyone else was complaining in their hearts, including Li Zhuangsheng himself.

……

After finishing the KTV, Li Zhuangsheng and Li Xiuyu returned to their home.

"so tired!"

Li Zhuangsheng did not return to the bedroom, but lay directly on the sofa in the living room.

I walked for a whole day carrying a bag weighing more than ten kilograms. It was like military training. I really didn't want to move.

"Taking a shower today?" Li Xiuyu asked.

"Well, I won't wash it." Li Zhuangsheng answered immediately, "I will wash it when I get up tomorrow morning."

"Lazy dog, so dirty!" Li Xiuyu kicked Li Zhuangsheng.

"I'm so tired that I don't even want to move!" Li Zhuangsheng complained, "Try to walk for a whole day with such a big bag on your back. My back hurts!"

Li Xiuyu was shocked: "Take off your clothes and lie down!"

Li Zhuangsheng smiled: "You have a guilty conscience today!"

Li Xiuyu urged impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up!"

Li Zhuangsheng got up and went back to the bedroom, took off his coat and pants, and lay on the bed.

Li Xiuyu sat on Li Zhuangsheng's waist, pressing him so hard that he screamed: "Ah, my old waist! Be gentle!"

"Just bear with it. I'm giving you a massage and you're still picky!" Li Xiuyu's mouth curled up, but then quickly collapsed. He snorted coldly, "You're trying to be a hero, who can you blame?"

"I'm not trying to be a hero. I can't let you girls carry such a heavy bag."

"I think Zhu Zhixue is quite happy to carry it for you."

"What are you talking about? She worked hard to cook, and you still want her to carry her own bag?"

"Then you just bear with it now!"

Li Xiuyu slapped Li Zhuangsheng on the shoulder.

"Oh... I treated you to dinner tonight, and you treat me like this now, you are too heartless!"

"That's why I'm giving you a massage now." Li Xiuyu's hands finally softened as he slowly massaged Li Zhuangsheng's back. "Besides, you're inviting Zhu Zhixue and the others to dinner. What does it have to do with me? If I don't go, you won't invite them anymore."

"What are you talking about? Didn't you eat it? Spit it out if you can!"

"Okay, just open your mouth and wait, I'll spit it out for you now."

While bickering with Li Zhuangsheng, Li Xiuyu did not stop his hands.

Li Zhuangsheng half-closed his eyes and hummed in enjoyment.

"Hey, let me ask you something." Li Xiuyu said.

"If you have something to ask, just ask directly. I'm a little scared by your politeness." Li Zhuangsheng said rudely.

"Are you really happy being with Zhu Zhixue?"

"I'm happy, otherwise why would I date her?"

Li Xiuyu's eyes were dim. In fact, there was no need for her to do this. No one knew Li Zhuangsheng better than her, sometimes not even Li Zhuangsheng himself.

From the beginning, she saw that Li Zhuangsheng's feelings for Zhu Zhixue were complicated. It was not just love, but more of a fear and helplessness. But as time went by, the originally complicated feelings became more and more pure.

She had been watching it all along.
