Going home for the New Year during the winter break, I encountered a cool school girl on the high-sp

Chapter 243 Give Him a Chance (Thanks for Reading~)

When Qin Yao heard Zhou Yuyang's name, her body stiffened slightly involuntarily.

After a long silence, she slowly spoke:
"He...don't worry about him, we have nothing to do with each other."

Seeing that she obviously didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, Lin Muxi didn't want to continue asking.

She patted Qin Yao's shoulder gently and said softly:

"Okay, if you have any worries, don't keep them to yourself. We are good friends."

At this time, Chen Chen had already cut the meat.

He arranged the neatly cut slices of meat on exquisite plates, which looked very tempting.

Chen Chen turned to look at Lin Muxi and Qin Yao and shouted:
"How's the washing going over there? I've got the meat ready!"

Lin Muxi responded loudly: "Hurry up, it will be finished in a while!"

Soon, the vegetarian dishes were cleaned. Lin Muxi and Qin Yao placed the washed vegetables neatly on a plate and brought them to the table in the living room.

At this time, Chen Chen had already placed the induction cooker and added clean water to the pot.

Turn on the fire and heat it up, and soon the water will boil.

At this moment, Chen Chen's phone dinged, and Zhou Yuyang sent another message:
How is she now?

Chen Chen took the time to glance at the message on his phone, smiled helplessly, and then quickly tapped his fingers on the screen and replied:
"Looks like he's in good shape. Why don't you come over here? It might be better to talk things over in person."

After the message was successfully sent, it now depends on how Zhou Yuyang will make a decision.

Not long after, Zhou Yuyang's reply came:

【I...I'd better forget it.】

Chen Chen frowned slightly and replied quickly:
What's going on between you two? Stop being so fussy. If there's a problem, solve it. There's no point in avoiding it.

Zhou Yuyang was silent for a while. Just when Chen Chen thought he would not reply again, another message came:
[I'm afraid that meeting him will only make things worse, I...]

Chen Chen shook his head helplessly and typed:
If you keep hesitating like this, you're really going to mess things up. I'd say you should just come over here and talk it out face to face. That's the only way to solve this problem.

Qin Yao was concentrating on placing the dishes and chopsticks, her movements gentle and orderly.

At this moment, a crisp doorbell rang suddenly, breaking the original silence in the house.

Chen Chen's heart moved, thinking that it might be Zhou Yuyang who came.

At such a fast speed, he must have been waiting downstairs for a long time.

Chen Chen smiled helplessly.

However, he did not take any action immediately, but just stood there quietly.

Sure enough, after hearing the doorbell, Qin Yao took action.

She was stunned for a moment, then put down the dishes in her hands, slowly walked to the door, reached out and gently opened the door.

The moment the door opened, she saw Zhou Yuyang standing quietly at the door, looking a little uneasy, with his hands unconsciously pinching the corners of his clothes.

Their eyes met, and for an instant, there seemed to be a subtle breath in the air.

Chen Chen stood behind and said at the right time:
"Now that you're here, don't be afraid. Come in and explain everything clearly." The moment Qin Yao saw Zhou Yuyang, her body stiffened again involuntarily, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

Zhou Yuyang took a step forward and walked in front of Qin Yao. He hesitated for a long time, his lips trembling slightly, and said softly:
"Qin Yao...I...I want to talk to you."

Qin Yao turned her head away, her eyes cold, and said in a light tone:

"What's there to talk about? Didn't I already say that we won't have any results?"

Seeing this, Zhou Yuyang looked even more anxious and said hurriedly:

"I know I might have done something wrong and made you unhappy. Can you please stop ignoring me?"

Lin Muxi and Chen Chen looked at each other, understood each other, and quietly stepped aside, trying not to disturb the two of them and leaving them enough space to communicate.

Seeing that Qin Yao still didn't say anything and just stood there quietly, Zhou Yuyang was so anxious that beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He gritted his teeth, as if mustering up all his courage, and said:
"Qin Yao, I...I like you, and I have liked you for a long time.

I know I didn't do well this time. I was too aggressive and made you angry. Can you give me a chance? "

After hearing this, Qin Yao still didn't say anything. She just stood at the door silently, looking ahead with a somewhat empty look in her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

After a long time, Qin Yao slowly turned her head and looked at Zhou Yuyang calmly. Her voice was gentle but revealed a hint of determination:
"You know, oftentimes, pure love seems too fragile in the face of reality. It's not enough to just like someone. If it doesn't work, it just won't work."

When Zhou Yuyang heard this, his eyes were filled with anxiety, and he quickly said:

"But how can we be sure it won't work if we don't try? Qin Yao, please give me this one chance, okay? Just this once."

His eyes were full of pleading, and his hands subconsciously stretched out, wanting to grab something, but when he was about to touch Qin Yao, he stopped timidly.

Qin Yao took a deep breath, as if trying to suppress the emotions surging in her heart. After a while, she slowly spoke:
"I admit that I did have feelings for you once, but...what can I do about it? Many things can't be solved by feelings alone."

As she spoke, she lowered her head, and her long eyelashes fluttered like a fan, quietly hiding the complex emotions in her eyes.

After hearing this, Zhou Yuyang said more anxiously:
"I know you like me too, Qin Yao. Give me a chance, and I will definitely work hard to prove that we are suitable for each other. We will definitely be happy together."

Qin Yao slowly raised her head and looked at Zhou Yuyang's anxious and sincere expression, and her heart couldn't help but waver.

She bit her lip subconsciously, and her tone was a little more hesitant:

"I...I don't know what the outcome would be if we were really together."

Zhou Yuyang seemed to have seen a ray of hope and said quickly:

"It's OK, Qin Yao. Believe me, we can do it. As long as you are willing to give me a chance, everything will be fine."

At this time, Lin Muxi, who had been observing silently at the side, could not help but stepped forward and gently took Qin Yao's hand, his eyes full of encouragement:
"Yaoyao, I think Senior Yuyang is sincere. Just give him a chance. Maybe you two will have a future together."

Chen Chen also echoed and nodded and said:

"Yeah, look at me and Xiaoxi, there's quite a big gap between us, but now we get along pretty well."

Qin Yao looked at Lin Muxi, then at Chen Chen, and finally returned her gaze to Zhou Yuyang's face which was full of desire and expectation.

After a long silence, she sighed softly and said slowly:
"Then...then tell me first, how do you plan to prove yourself?"
