Chapter 186 Sea King's Fake Gold × BrotherChildhood FriendFriend's Teacher (16)
"Huh?" What is that? Zhan Yan was shocked. They could still talk?
Song Zhi Qiu paused for a moment, then repeated, "Would you like to try dating me?"
I wanted to ask if it was okay, to tell her I liked her, to talk to her, but I couldn't. All I could say was ask her if she wanted to try.
Zhan Yan looked confused. "Aren't we... all girls?"
It seems her father had never dated a boy either, so this was a path she had never considered.
Zhan Haiwang's path is currently relatively narrow.
Zhan Yan's question was merely a question, but her words stung Song Zhi Qiu somewhat, as if she had been given a death sentence.
But having come this far, going back is never in her nature. Without hurting Zhan Yan or putting her in a difficult position, she will fight for herself.
Song Zhi Qiu was already a little angry that Zhan Yan hadn't informed her of what happened at school today, but instead informed that old man Qi Rang. She knew that Zhan Yan didn't want to affect her classes, but which was more important, her safety or her classes?
Seeing the confusion in Zhan Yan's eyes, he steadied himself and said seriously:
"Yes, but that doesn't matter. I want to know how you felt when you kissed me just now—did you hate it or like it?"
There should be no middle ground in this kind of situation.
Zhan Yan subconsciously recalled her question. "Is it not unpleasant? It seems quite kissable, like kissing the cheek, yet different."
"Should...you like it?"
Song Zhiqi breathed a sigh of relief and continued:
"Think about it, if the two of us were like a normal couple, holding hands, hugging, and kissing, could you accept that?"
She stared intently, afraid of missing even the slightest emotion. Zhan Yan frowned, and Song Zhi Qiu lowered her eyes. So it still wasn't working?
"Haven't we done all of these things you mentioned? If you like, I can kiss and hug you more often in the future. Why do we have to be in a relationship?" Zhan Yan was a little unhappy. They were good friends, and good friends could do this too.
Song Zhi Qiu raised her eyes, suppressing her disappointment to comfort her, "I didn't say we had to talk. If you don't like it, we won't try."
She doesn't dislike physical intimacy, but refuses to date. In other words, she can accept girls, but just doesn't like them. This fact is bound to be painful.
Zhan Yan grumbled, "You clearly wanted to talk; you wouldn't have asked if you didn't."
A hint of hurt flashed in Song Zhi Qiu's eyes. She hadn't intended to put Zhan Yan in a difficult position, but it seemed she had still messed things up.
"I don't want to, I won't ask again, don't be upset."
Zhan Yan kept her head down and wouldn't look at her. Song Zhi Qiu felt terrible. She had been very careful in asking, afraid that Zhan Yan would distance herself from her, but the result was still the same. For the first time in her life, she felt a little lost.
After a moment, she looked up with a smile and asked, "Do you really want to be in a relationship?"
Seeing that she was paying attention to her, Song Zhiqi shook her head, "No."
Zhan Yan glared at her, "Liar."
There was a moment of silence. Zhan Yan frowned. "Jiang Yizhou used to insist on talking about it too, and I told him not to. But then he found out I'd talked a lot and got upset. Now you want to talk about it too, and you'll be upset again. I don't want you to be unhappy."
Jiang Yizhou and Song Zhiqi are different from other couples. Others break up when they're unhappy in a relationship, but these two are unhappy whether they're in a relationship or not.
If you break up with someone else, that's it, you just cut ties and don't have any contact anymore. But these two are different; they both belong to me. What if I break up with her one day and have to cut all ties with her? She'll be very, very angry, and she might do something bad to them.
Seeing Song Zhi Qiu's helpless and self-reproachful look, Zhan Yan leaned over and kissed her.
Song Zhi Qiu dodged away, looked at Zhan Yan's questioning eyes, and said seriously:
"Don't make things difficult for yourself." She meant it sincerely; Zhan Yan didn't need to wrong herself just to make her happy.
Zhan Yan frowned. "I'm not in a difficult position." If they won't let you kiss me, then so be it. Let me ask first. "Would you be more upset if we talked or if we didn't talk?"
Either way is painful, so choose the one that's slightly less painful.
Song Zhi Qiu was silent for a moment, then patted her head. "I don't want to talk about it now. Don't think about it too much."
Zhan Yan glared at her, "Talk! Talk to you! You want to talk, but you won't say anything, you're so pathetic!"
Someone like Song Zhi Qiu is no match for her at all; if she wanted to talk, she could do it any way she wanted.
"Qiuqiu, let me tell you, when it comes to dating, if you want it, you have to get it, understand?"
Finally, it's her turn to be Qiuqiu's teacher, hahaha.
Finally, it's not like back in junior and senior high school when she would go to great lengths to explain problems to me anymore. Life is like a wheel that turns, la la la la~
Song Zhi Qiu carefully observed Zhan Yan's expression, but she couldn't be sure whether Zhan Yan was reluctantly agreeing to make her happy or if she was truly willing.
Do you want to talk?
If you don't want to, then you don't need to.
Zhan Yan was a little troubled. "I don't want to talk about it." Afraid of upsetting her, she quickly added, "It's not because of anything else, it's just that, as you know, I have many babies. I won't break up with them, and I won't break up with them even if you're unhappy. If we don't talk about it, then you won't be unhappy because of them."
Song Zhi Qiu felt sad, but she had actually expected it. Jiang Yizhou had talked to her, but Zhan Yan hadn't broken up with him.
As for herself, she hadn't really thought that much about it before. After all, although Zhan Yan had dated a lot, none of them were girls, which made it hard for her not to back down.
But if given the chance, she certainly would.
Besides, even if they don't talk about it, wouldn't she feel uncomfortable watching her talk to other people?
Setting aside her chaotic thoughts, Zhan Yan's words at least gave her the courage to continue speaking.
"I do want to talk, shall we give it a try?"
There's a proper way to talk things out. Seeing her serious expression, Zhan Yan first laid down three rules.
"It's settled then. I'll talk a lot, but you can't ask me to break up. And there's one more thing: if one day you don't want to talk anymore, you must still be my best friend, just like now. You can't ignore me, or I'll get angry. Qiuqiu, I've never been angry with you before. You don't know, I get really angry."
Zhan Yan wasn't lying. Her threat to Jiang Yizhou came from the bottom of her heart. If one day they wanted to abandon her and stop being her best friend, she would genuinely want to drag them down with her.
Zhan. Sea King and Yan, a yandere.
Zhan Yan was unusually serious. Song Zhi Qiu rarely saw her like this, so she found it somewhat amusing, and also amused by her possessiveness.
As for asking her to break up? Song Zhi Qiu wouldn't. At least so far, no one except Jiang Yizhou has been able to threaten her position in Zhan Yan's heart.
She was sad as she was, but she wouldn't spoil the mood.
"Okay, I'll always be your best friend." Song Zhi Qiu stroked Zhan Yan's head. "Yan Yan, you'll always be my number one."
She knew that Zhan Yan loved to hear things that clearly expressed how important she was.
