NOVEL WEB chapter 33
33 I’m really afraid you’ll ignore me again (1 / 2)
The girl’s dependent words and actions left Fang Zhou frozen in place.
Apart from that night when Chu Xinran sleepwalked and stumbled upon him by mistake, it had been a long time since he had heard her address him that way.
“I’m really afraid you’ll ignore me again…”
Chu Xinran’s voice was soft, her body pliant, like a tender marshmallow, clinging tightly to Fang Zhou.
He tried to break free, but it was futile, only drawing a tighter embrace from Chu Xinran.
“After we broke up, I often dreamt of you, but even in my dreams, you were cold, leaving me behind without looking back.”
Her voice became plaintive, the tone dropping low, as if she had endured endless grievances.
Fang Zhou’s hand stiffened on the doorknob, facing Chu Xinran’s sudden confession with a panic, unsure how to respond.
“You, I won’t ignore you, just let go of your hands first.”
No matter what, they were exes now, and embracing like this was really inappropriate.
“I don’t want to! You’ll definitely open the door and leave!”
The once sensible and polite belle, adored by everyone, was now showing an unreasonable side in front of Fang Zhou, which would surely surprise anyone who saw it.
Her hands clasped around Fang Zhou’s waist, her head resting against his back, and if not for the inconvenience of wearing a skirt, Fang Zhou even suspected she would wrap around him like an octopus.
The scent of jasmine from Chu Xinran mingled with a faint smell of blood, making one’s head spin.
Fang Zhou remembered the Chu Xinran of the past, who was never unreasonable, always measured, decorous, and knew when to advance or retreat, never causing trouble for others.
Perhaps his own departure had truly hurt her, which made her current behavior understandable.
It was all the karma he had created.
Fang Zhou sighed deeply in his heart, deciding to coax Chu Xinran properly, at least to make her feel secure.
“I promise you, I won’t leave for now, let’s talk after you’ve eaten, okay?”
Of the thirty-six stratagems, delay is the best.
“Okay.”
Chu Xianran finished speaking and really did let go of her hand, slowly backing away from Fang Zhou.
The latter secretly exhaled a sigh, just about to turn around and call her to eat when he felt a warm sensation again in his waist.
What was it that was reaching into his white T-shirt and moving upward, bit by bit?
It was Chu Xianran’s hand!
Realizing this, Fang Zhou was startled and hastily reached out to stop her.
But that hand was clearly more agile, dodging his hand like it had eyes, dodging and weaving, and landed on top!
At that moment, he seemed to hear a sigh from his soul.
Not letting her write, afraid of going to the small black room and not writing in detail, everyone can fill in the blanks themselves.
Looking at that hand, Fang Zhou quickly pressed it down.
“Don’t do that.”
Fang Zhou’s voice was shaking slightly, as if he had lost some of his confidence.
Behind him, Chu Xianran smiled lightly, her eyes fixed on him as she said, “Don’t do that either?”
Climbing up the mountain, reaching the highest point.
“Is that so?”
She revealed a playful smile and slowly approached Fang Zhou, asking, “Or is it like that?”
Fang Zhou felt like a 1.8-meter-tall man in front of the 1.65-meter-tall Chu Xianran, feeling powerless.
His breathing became irregular, and he felt dizzy and disoriented, almost collapsing.
Suddenly, the wind blowing in through the window woke Fang Zhou up, and he regained his clarity, pushing Chu Xianran away.
“That’s enough.”
Fang Zhou’s expression turned solemn, and he silently backed away several steps, creating distance between himself and Chu Xianran.
“Let’s talk properly, don’t get that close.”
Fang Zhou was really afraid she would ignore him again (2/2)
“There’s also, we’ve been apart for a long time, and you’re doing things that are really not suitable.”
At this moment, Fang Zhou looked like a wise man, unlike the person he was just a moment ago.
Chu Xianran didn’t move, her hand still touching Fang Zhou’s chest, her expression becoming slightly dejected.
“But didn’t you used to like it?”
Fang Zhou hurriedly took another step back, blurting out, “I never liked it!”
In the past, when he was dating Chu Xianran, it was pure love, and they had never done anything like that, only holding hands and hugging. There was no such thing as that level of intimacy.
Even though he was no longer a young boy, he was still not used to Chu Xianran’s straightforward advances.
This is the school flower, the most pure and innocent existence, how could she voluntarily do something like that?
“You said you like excitement…”
Chu Xin blinked her eyes, indicating that she didn’t quite understand.
When she heard this, Fang Zhou suddenly felt awkward and stopped in his tracks. Hadn’t he said something like that when they broke up last year? “You’re too innocent, I like excitement.”
He hadn’t expected fate to turn the tables on him like this.
“Hmm, I didn’t mean that.”
“I only…”
“What only?”
Fang Zhou suddenly paused, unable to respond to the rest of the conversation.
If he said he didn’t like something now, wouldn’t that prove that he was lying when they broke up last year?
Isn’t that like hitting oneself with a stone?
“Uh?”
Chu Xin tilted her head, her eyes sparkling with innocence, and asked softly.
“What only?”
Fang Zhou suddenly felt a bit hesitant to look at her.
“No, no, it’s just that you misunderstood my intentions.”
“I didn’t mean that.”
His eyes quickly darted around, finally settling on the food on the table.
“Why don’t you eat first and then we’ll talk later? It’s too hot to eat right now.”
He said, walking a few steps away and stopping at the side table, looking at her with an expectant expression.
Chu Xin’s eyes stared straight at Fang Zhou, as if she couldn’t understand his intentions.
“Or do you like things that are more… adventurous?”
“Uh, that’s not impossible either.”
She said, slowly putting her hand under her foot, as if she was doing something.
Fang Zhou saw a thin, almost transparent network-like thing, and his eyes widened in surprise.
“What are you doing?”
Chu Xin didn’t respond, only slowly putting her hand on her foot and then lifting it up, revealing a smooth, white foot.
!!!
Fang Zhou seemed to have guessed her intentions and quickly walked to the door, turned the handle, and slammed the door shut with a loud “bang!”
“Take your time eating, I’ve got to run for an emergency.”
Chu Xinran was left alone, her lips curling slightly, revealing a hint of a mocking smile.
Wasn’t it you who said you liked it? Why are you pretending to be like this now?
