Chapter 32: Reason

This was the first time Su Chen had done this.

Shang Xitong was slightly delighted in her heart, but she immediately raised her brows and said angrily, “I don’t have hands on my own? I can’t hit it by myself?”

“Oops, sorry, I’m really sorry. I forgot!” Su Chen apologized, “Sorry, I couldn’t stand it for a moment.”

“Shang Xitong did not get angry nor did she smile. She planned to get up and leave.

As to whether she would forgive him, or feel anger or shame, she didn’t know.

Just after lifting his foot to take this step, Shang Xitong saw that Su Chen actually directly picked up the latte that she had just drank from and the location where Shang Xitong’s lips were.

Next up…

Su Chen drank it very naturally.

“Not bad. It really tastes good!” Su Chen spoke in a loud voice, and looked at Shang Xitong’s face with a very joyful smile.

In the blink of an eye, Shang Xitong blushed and she fled in a panic.

She fled, just like Su Chen’s ex had. Su Chen sat on the chair in a daze and had no idea what to do.

No, this shouldn’t be happening.

Shang Yixin said that after he took a sip of the latte, he should say something according to the script. The school belle would be deep in thought first before looking at him coquettishly with anger!

But Shang Xitong didn’t do that! Shang Xitong didn’t act according to the script!!

The laurel was fragrant in September, and the sun was just right without being harsh. Su Chen, somewhat dejected, walked out of the study room in front of a crowd and returned to the dormitory.

Beep! Beep! A notification alert sounded.

“Dad, how are you and Mom doing?

A face similar to Xitong appeared on the screen.

Compared to the cool and calm Shang Xitong, this stunningly beautiful face looked fresh and elegant. It belonged to his dear daughter Shang Yixin.

“How weird.”

Regarding this, Su Chen was very helpless. “Baby girl, your idea sounds reliable, but it doesn’t seem to have any effect when it’s implemented. Just now, I drank your mother’s latte, but she ran like a rabbit and didn’t give me time to react. Is it because I was too careless?”

Could it be that he had turned off his wife and even completely lost the chance to maintain contact with her?

Shang Yixin smiled and shook her head. “Dad, you really drank Mom’s latte?”

“Isn’t that what you said? You wanted me to do this.” He was puzzled.

“Dad, you’re so stupid.” Shang Yixin smiled. “It’s not that I taught you the wrong way. You didn’t think that this kind of thing would only be used after two people have known each other for a long time. You and Mom have only seen each other a few times. Dad, you’re really impressive. Now that these things have happened, it would be strange if the girl didn’t run away so fast!”

“Ah!” Su Chen was confused. Seriously?

All of this was because he rarely had actual experience with girls. His precious daughter was probably right.

“Your mother didn’t even look at me when she left. Is she angry?”

Su Chen was worried, “Will she never talk to me again? What should I do?”

“My dad is so stupid! I really don’t know how to describe you!”

Shang Yixin couldn’t help but say, “This is already the second time Mom went out with you. This means that Mom has a good impression of you. At least she won’t be annoyed by you. But you mustn’t do that. But, Dad, are you still doing something that makes Mom upset? Otherwise, she shouldn’t have run so fast, right?”

His precious daughter could even predict this?

Su Chen said in astonishment, “I didn’t do anything. There was just a mosquito on your mother’s leg. I couldn’t resist and just reached out to swat it.”

Shang Yixin was very astonished. In the video, he looked into Su Chen’s eyes with wide eyes and said softly, “I insulted my father. What do you think? Dad, you are really upright and courageous. School beauties are a piece of cake for you.”

She looked at him in shock. “You’ve only met her a few times, but you still dared to touch my mother’s thigh. You’re so brave!”

Su Chen had an embarrassed expression on his face.

He was in a hurry to make a move. He thought that it was impossible for anyone to endure. He couldn’t be blamed, right?!

“But it’s no big deal.”

Shang Yixin smiled and comforted him. “You don’t have to worry too much, Daddy. Mommy shouldn’t be angry. You can still woo her.”

“Really?” Su Chen widened his eyes.

“Really, really. When have I ever lied to you?” Shang Yixin said confidently.

“Then why are you so sure?”

“Because you weren’t beaten up, you still have a chance.” Shang Yixin smiled. “Dad, you must take this opportunity to find a reason for Mom to go out with you again. For the reason, just say you need Mom’s help, like helping you get out of trouble. Try it and you’ll know whether Mom is interested in you. If she is, Mom will definitely help you.”

A reason? A reason? For a moment or two, Su Chen couldn’t think of one.

“Huazi, why are you in a daze? When are we going to eat?” Outside the dormitory building, Hao Deyun, the second oldest of the dormitory, took his last sip of cola and shouted at him.

“To eat?” Su Chen instantly snapped back to reality.

At night, he was going to have dinner with his roommates to help intern.

This was the excuse!

“Thank you so much, my precious daughter!” In the video, he air-kissed Shang Yixin.

“Uh.” Shang Yixin blushed. After the video ended, she was still in a daze.

Su Chen ran away with the second oldest.

…

In the female dormitory.

Shang Xitong was still embarrassed and she was still blushing. She hugged the pillow and sat on the bed for a long time.

How dare that villain treat her like that?

How embarrassing! Beep beep. A notification alert sounded.

Number One Tiger Fighter: “Are you there?”

When Shang Xitong saw this name, she couldn’t help but smile.

This person was really stupid and flippant. You could get a sense of his flippant nature from his username.

After clicking on Su Chen’s username, Shang Xitong was still hesitating.

Should she reply?

Beep. Su Chen:[Help me, help me!]

Help him? Shang Xitong was shocked and replied: What happened?

Su Chen: [I’m starting my internship tomorrow. Let’s go out for a gathering. I haven’t had any friends recently, so I can get to know you. My roommates want to meet you, the most beautiful school belle, and forced me to invite you to a gathering.]

Most beautiful school belle?

Shang Xitong’s expression was very shy. [I’m not familiar with them, so I won’t be going.]

Su Chen: [Oh no, they told me to make sure to invite you over].

Shang Xitong: “Yes, that’s your problem too. Who let you brag?”

Su Chen: [I thought that we were supposed to be friends, huh? We have a good relationship!
