The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 145 Confession failed?
"Brother Fan?"

Zhou Hai looked at Luo Fan's absent-minded look and knocked on his desk deliberately.

From morning till now, Luo Fan has been staring at his phone for who knows how many times, and no one knows what he is thinking about.

"What's wrong? Are you worried?" Zhou Hai handed Luo Fan a cup of latte, then pulled a stool over and sat down next to Luo Fan, guessing: "Your expression... did your confession fail?"

Luo Fan silently took the cup of latte handed to him by Zhou Hai and just focused on drinking the coffee without answering his question.

Seeing that Luo Fan didn't want to say anything, Zhou Hai moved closer to him and whispered, "Tell me what's going on. What's the point of being sad alone? Tell me and I can help you analyze it."

Zhou Hai kept asking questions, and Luo Fan finally couldn't help but speak after drinking half of his coffee.

The coffee was placed on the table. Luo Fan held both sides of the cup with both hands and spoke slowly: "The night before last... I failed to confess my love."

"Is that so?" Zhou Hai felt a little unbelievable, and then continued: "Did you accidentally make things worse? From what I have observed, Mei Xia Yu should be interested in you!"

"The fact is, we all thought too much..." Luo Fan said dejectedly.

No way……

These two people, a talented man and a beautiful woman, are the official standard male and female protagonists in novels. How could Xia Yu not like Luo Fan?

Unless the author is drunk!

(Xiaoying: Not really…)
"Brother Fan, can you tell me in detail how you confessed to me?" Zhou Hai said again.

Can you explain it in detail?

Luo Fan took another sip of coffee. How could he explain this in detail? He couldn't tell Zhou Hai that the watch Xia Yu gave him was actually made from a fox's tail, right?

"The night before last..." Luo Fan paused, and said, "My mother prepared a table full of food, and I went to pick her up to eat at my house. After dinner, I sent her home. When we got to the community downstairs, I suddenly realized...she gave me a watch before, but it didn't mean that she liked me. I felt a little bad at the moment."

"She said that? That's weird. If a girl doesn't like someone, shouldn't she just ignore that person? She... doesn't like you, but she specially sent you a watch to the company?"

Zhou Hai was really "puzzled". He touched Luo Fan's shoulder and said, "Brother Fan, tell me again, what did Mei Xiayu say originally?"

Original words…

Luo Fan smiled bitterly and replied: "I asked her if she had ever liked me even for a moment, and she answered me without hesitation... No."

"……."how so?
Zhou Hai suddenly grabbed Luo Fan's left hand, rolled up his sleeves, and found that the watch Xia Yu gave him was no longer on his wrist.

"Where's the watch?" Zhou Hai asked in surprise.

Luo Fan was unusually calm and replied, "I gave it back to her."

"Give it back..." Zhou Hai felt that Luo Fan's emotional intelligence was hopelessly low, and a normal person would not do this.

The girl you secretly love gives you a gift, and then you realize that she doesn't like you, will you return the gift to her?

Don’t you think that even if she gave you the gift not because she likes you, it still means there is hope for you?

"Did she answer it?" Zhou Hai asked again.

Luo Fan still answered calmly: "I got it."

"It's all over now!" Zhou Hai felt inexplicably sympathetic towards Luo Fan and said, "Give her the watch back. She must be angry! It would be fine if she didn't take it. But if she takes it, doesn't it mean that she will 'draw a clear line' with you in the future?"

"Draw a clear line? It can't be... that serious, right?" The expression on Luo Fan's face finally changed. He couldn't sleep for two nights because he was thinking about the question Zhou Hai raised.

In fact, even if Xia Yu gave him that watch not because of "love", it was at least because of "worry".

Regardless, this is a good start!

Moreover, he guessed that the reason why Xia Yu rejected him was mostly because of his destined person "Bai Zhi" who had not yet appeared.

"Did you guys keep in touch later?" "No."

"You haven't sent a single message since yesterday?"

"No……"

"Then why are you still standing there? Take the initiative to send her a message!"

"Oh..." Luo Fan took his phone from the table, opened WeChat, found the contact "Xia Yu", opened the dialog box, and was stunned for a moment: "What... should I send?"

"Let's go..." Zhou Hai thought about it seriously, and suddenly suggested: "Just say that we plan to go to Dongdong's filming location as soon as we get off work on Friday, which is tomorrow afternoon. This way, we can spend one more day there and see what she says."

While Zhou Hai was talking, Luo Fan edited a paragraph according to what he said and sent it to Xia Yu.

A few minutes later, Xia Yu did not respond. At this moment, Xia Yu was in the underworld helping Meng Po to distribute "Meng Po Soup", so how could he receive the message from Luo Fan?
"Have you returned?" Zhou Hai asked expectantly.

Luo Fan showed his cell phone and replied, "No."

"If not possible, Brother Fan, please give her a call!" Zhou Hai suggested again.

So Luo Fan dialed Xia Yu's cell phone number again, but the call didn't go through.

Seeing his expression, Zhou Hai knew that the call was not connected, and asked hurriedly: "She won't answer?"

Luo Fan hung up the phone and replied, "Not in service area."

The "out of service area" situation occurred in the past because Xia Yu had returned to heaven.

Could it be... that she went back again?
"Not in the service area?" After hearing this, Zhou Hai called Xia Yu himself, and the result confirmed that it was indeed... not in the service area.

"Did she go back to her hometown again?"

"But now, even in the most remote villages, there is no way there is no 'network signal'!"

……

Throughout the day today, Luo Fan sent many messages to Xia Yu and called her many times, but received no response.

Because he was worried that Xia Yu had really returned to heaven, Luo Fan was not in spirit during work hours. He even made several mistakes in printing the simplest documents, so he left work early.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Luo Fan rode his own bicycle and rushed to the Earth God Temple in a hurry.

In broad daylight, there were mortals who came to kneel and make wishes, but the God of Land did not show up.

Luo Fan couldn't find the entrance to Xia Yu's villa at the same place as last time, so he had to walk into the temple.

After the kneeling mortals left the statue of the land god, Luo Fan knelt in front of the land god.

After offering incense, Luo Fan kowtowed three times to the statue of the land god, closed his eyes slightly, and began to pray devoutly in his heart.

When the God of Land heard Luo Fan's thoughts, he roughly wanted to know whether Xia Yu was at home and whether he was angry with him.

It is true that Xia Yu is not in the temple, but she runs out all day long, and the God of Land really doesn’t know where she goes.

Ever since the God of Land knew that "Luo Fan knew Xia Yu's identity", he has never appeared in front of Luo Fan again.

Even on the day Xia Yu brought Luo Fan into the villa, he did not show up.

Did she... go back to heaven? Luo Fan thought.

In fact, he was asking the God of Land.

Luo Fan was the only mortal left in the temple at this time. The God of Land finally spoke and said to Luo Fan: "No."
