“I know? Know what? I only know you like to go clubbing and have fun with your buddies,” Li Minyu said angrily.
“Isn’t that just putting on an act?” Pi Xiaoqian felt a little wronged.
“Putting on an act? How would you feel if I went clubbing and put on an act?”
“That’s different.”
“Different? What’s different? What’s different between you and me?
Isn’t it just that I’m female and you’re male? What else is different?”
“Okay, I was wrong. Ever since you said that last time, I haven’t gone anymore.”
“Really? Am I that influential?”
“Yes. From now on, if you tell me to go east, I won’t go west. If you tell me to beat a dog, I won’t chase a chicken.”
“Sweet talker. What do you like about me?”
“Nothing in particular, I just like you.”
“You’re not young anymore. Why do you always say such unreliable things?
There’s no love without reason, and no hate without reason.
You don’t have me in your heart at all, and I think we’re not compatible.”
Pi Xiaoqian was stunned when he heard this. Why would Li Minyu suddenly say something like that?
“Tell me what I do wrong, and I’ll change.”
“You haven’t done anything wrong, it’s just that I think we’re not compatible. You don’t understand me, you don’t know what I’m thinking.”
I’m not a mind-reader, how would I know what you’re thinking?
Pi Xiaoqian grumbled inwardly, but he didn’t dare say it out loud.
“Then what are you thinking?”
“I’m thinking, why do you like me? I’m not beautiful, and I have a bad temper.
If we were to get married, would you still stray outside like you do now?
How much space do I occupy in your heart? Can you give me happiness?
After thinking so much, I couldn’t find any reason to marry you.
Tell me, how can I be with you?”
Pi Xiaoqian hadn’t expected Li Minyu to say such things, nor had he expected her to think so much.
He simply thought that he liked Li Minyu, and liking someone was just liking them, without any external factors.
Today, through Li Minyu’s analysis, he realized that his liking for her seemed a bit blind.
“I really haven’t thought that much. I believe that liking someone doesn’t need a reason.
Although I went to clubs and nightlife spots when I was waiting for you, this doesn’t affect my liking for you.
Since you told me last time, I haven’t been to any clubs or nightlife spots.
You ask me how much space you occupy in my heart, and I want to say my heart is full of you. Xiao Xi knows this too.
I think I can give you happiness. At the very least, with my current net worth, I should be able to satisfy all your material needs.
If you are willing to marry me, I will cherish you like a treasure, and I will do anything I can for you.”
“Xiao Xi knows? How does Xiao Xi know everything? If Xiao Xi knows, why don’t you go to Xiao Xi? Why are you looking for me?”
Li Minyu suddenly got angry and hung up the phone.
Pi Xiaoqian didn’t understand why Li Minyu was suddenly throwing a tantrum, nor did he know what he had said wrong.
“President Pi, women need to be coaxed, not reasoned with.
Especially when talking to a woman who is indecisive and contradictory, you must never mention another woman,” Wu Youzhi said from the side.
“Li Minyu is very conflicted right now about accepting your feelings, and you keep bringing up Xiao Xi. Isn’t that just asking for trouble?”
“Sigh. How could I possibly know these things? I’m a complete novice when it comes to love. How could I know women are so troublesome?”
“A woman’s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea. Don’t try to understand what women are thinking.
You just need to spoil her, give her various gifts, especially on holidays.
As long as you show her you remember her, she will be moved by you one day.”
“But I can’t get into her workplace.”
“This is the information age. Do you still need to go in person?
You just need to send her a sweet message every day. I believe it won’t be long before her perception of you changes.
What you need to do is let her know that you are thinking of her all the time.
Valentine’s Day is coming up. You can wait for her at the entrance of her workplace in advance, give her a bouquet of flowers, or treat her to a candlelit dinner.
You need to make her feel that you value her, that she is your only one.”
“Will that work?”
“How will you know if you don’t try? The women around me, although a bit materialistic, are very thoughtful.
Why? Because I remember their birthdays.
On special holidays, I even send them small gifts.
It doesn’t cost much, but they know I’m thinking of them.”
“So, what do you think I should do?”
“Every woman has a different personality. I don’t know the woman you like, so I can’t give you specific advice.
However, I think you should start sending her sweet talk or try to ask her out for a meal.”
“She’s cold, she won’t agree to a meal.”
“Women are cold on the outside but warm on the inside. How will you know if she won’t come out for a meal if you don’t try?
Be brave and embrace trial and error. One day, you will move her with your actions. Won’t it be a natural progression then?”
“Thank you, Mr. Wu. We should have a few drinks later. You need to give me more advice.”
“Drinking is no problem, but I’ve told you all the advice I have. I can’t give you any more.”
Guo Xuyang had no idea what the two of them were talking about. He was currently holding a bracelet and preparing to find Jiang Qixin.
Suddenly, his phone rang.
“Guo Xuyang, where are you now?” a girl’s voice came from the phone.
“Who is this?” He couldn’t recognize the person on the other end at first.
“It’s Tong Xin,” the girl’s voice was very pleasant.
“Oh, Tong Xin, I didn’t recognize you earlier, sorry. I’m in Kyoto now. Is there something you need?”
“Are you free? Can I treat you to a meal?”
“I’m sorry. I have something tonight. How about another day? I’ll treat you another day.”
“Is that so? Alright then. Goodbye.”
Guo Xuyang was puzzled, wondering why Tong Xin wanted to treat him to a meal.
He wasn’t very familiar with Tong Xin. They had only interacted a few times during the ability test, and later she was assigned to his team in the intergalactic scavenging squad due to her abilities.
Meanwhile, Tong Xin hung up the phone and looked at the movie tickets on the table.
Today was her birthday, and she wanted someone to accompany her.
“Xin Xin, what are you doing? Want to go shopping?” Li Minyu knocked on her door and asked.
“Sister Yu,” Tong Xin stood up in a hurry.
“Who were you planning to watch a movie with?” Li Minhui noticed the movie tickets on the table.
“You’re not on duty today, are you? Shall we go together?” Tong Xin said with a smile.
“Did someone stand you up? Who is so blind that they would dare to stand up the beautiful Xin Xin?”
“No, Sister Yu. Today is my birthday, and I was just looking for someone to accompany me.”
“Birthday? Come on, sis will celebrate your birthday with you. How about we invite two handsome guys too?”
“No, Sister Yu, just the two of us. I only bought two movie tickets.”
“Alright then. What do you want to eat tonight? You’re the birthday star today, say what you want. Sister is treating.”
“Anything is fine, I don’t have any requirements for food.”
“Then let’s go have steak. And a portion of pasta. After eating, we’ll go watch the movie.”
“Okay.”
