Why are you always thinking about dating me?

Without waiting for Su Yuejin's reply, she left the cat cafe in her black leather shoes. Only then did Lin An turn around, her brows slightly furrowed.

Xiao Chacha's last words to him were, "Don't reveal that we know each other."

However, because Xiao Chacha knew that little secret, Lin An had no choice but to listen to her. Su Yuejin sat down opposite him at this time, since there weren't any new customers around.

"Lin An, do you know who she is?"

"...Of course I don't know. Do you know her?"

"Her name is Xiao Chacha. Her family runs a very profitable business. But think about it, if they can keep such a profitable business, what else might their family be involved in?"

"Why are you telling me this? Are you enemies with her?"

"Not really." Su Yuejin seemed a little angry, so she turned her face away, but she wasn't afraid to tell Lin An, "She's a lesbian, and she used to pursue me for a while."

"……what?"

Lin An was stunned for five or six seconds before he could fully accept this fact.

"But I never accepted her back then and said some really hurtful things to her. After that, she cut off all contact with me. However, we would still meet occasionally for some reasons. She... hates me a bit, so she just wants to talk to you more to disgust me."

"I see." Lin An nodded.

"But...why did you give her your WeChat account?"

"Huh? She bought it for five hundred yuan, might as well give it to her."

"Then I'll give you a thousand, and you can delete her WeChat."

"...That's not a good idea. It's like crossing the river and then burning the bridge. Since she's a lesbian, what are you worried about? She probably won't even chat with me. Besides, are you jealous?" Lin An glanced at her sideways.

Why can't I be jealous?

"No, I was just asking."

...I kissed you in front of you and then told you I had someone I liked, and you didn't react much. It's really rare for you to be jealous.

"So remember this: you should never get too close to her, and there's no need to try to seduce her. You can't do it."

"Even if you didn't tell me, I wouldn't flirt with her. Please, what kind of person do you really take me for?"

"Don't pretend. I've heard what kind of person you were in junior high," Su Yuejin grumbled.

"Since you know what kind of person I am, why do you still like me? Aren't you shameless?"

"I just like you, it's none of your business, hehe." Su Yuejin said this, looking at Lin An's face, and said softly, "So, are you going to delete her WeChat or not?"

"There's no need for that. I won't talk to you about it, and... I don't want to make money off you."

"Why? Because I'm special?"

"If you want to hear the truth, it's that I'm afraid I won't be able to resist cheating you out of money and sex, and then I'll fall into depravity. When I leave you one day, I'll feel uneasy."

"You won't leave me, Lin An."

Lin An wouldn't argue with her about this anymore; time would give her the answer. Su Yuejin continued, "Where do you go after get off work?"

"Go home."

"You promised to make me cola chicken wings last time."

"Next time."

"But I've already learned how to cook." She said this with great seriousness, as if it were something extraordinary. Lin An praised her, "You're really amazing."

Su Yuejin clung to his arm and started acting coquettishly again.

"Is it okay, Lin An?"

"Not good, maybe next week."

"Why go back so early...? There's nothing to do anyway, isn't it better to stay with me?"

"Not too good," Lin An replied, but she demanded a reason from him, which he refused to give, driving her crazy.

Su Yuejin finished her lemon Yakult, and then Lin An called over a few cats. The cats jumped onto the table, and he and Su Yuejin played with them. When there were guests, Lin An would greet them. Then, at six o'clock, when work was over, Lin An prepared to go home. Su Yuejin walked side by side with him to the side of the road. Su Yuejin took out her car keys from her canvas bag.

A white sports car.

"Then I'll take you home, Lin An." She smiled at him, her smile gentle.

"Oh...you can drive?"

"You're eighteen now, so use your summer vacation to get your driver's license. Don't worry, I drive very steadily." She said, opening the car door. Lin An followed her into the passenger seat and fastened his seatbelt.

He gave Su Yuejin the address, and Su Yuejin drove him all the way to his apartment building. It was an older-style apartment complex with affordable prices. Su Yuejin stopped the car, but unbuckled her own seatbelt.

"Aren't you going to invite me up for a drink of water?" She looked at Lin An's face, waiting for his answer, and seemed quite aggrieved.

"I don't plan to, but thank you anyway."

"Alright then." Su Yuejin pouted slightly, but still nodded. She grabbed his collar and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. Lin An didn't even have time to dodge.

The car's air conditioning was on just right, but Lin An felt a little hot because she had already wrapped her arms around his neck, seemingly not satisfied with just a simple kiss.

But Lin An didn't really want to kiss her today.

"You can't refuse me...you can't refuse me." She murmured to herself, and in the end, Lin An kissed her until her cheeks were flushed and her chest heaved with each breath before she let Lin An out of the car.

Lin An stood there looking into her eyes.

"Drive carefully," Lin An whispered to her.

Su Yuejin nodded slightly, reversed the car and drove away from him, this time seemingly without much lingering affection.

Lin An was particularly calm. He knew he had to be calm and not have any lingering feelings or regrets, so he wouldn't get hurt. Besides, Xu Qinghuan was still waiting to be fed.

I bought a green pepper, some lean meat, and two cucumbers at the supermarket near the entrance of my residential area for dinner.

Chapter Thirty: Those Things That Made You Cry

After Xiao Chacha returned home, she took off her Lolita dress and underwear, changed into a simple black camisole, and then drew the curtains.

After all, she lives alone.

After a quick wash, she went to her room, turned on her computer, sat down, and started reading some messages, mostly from groups like Lolita fashion enthusiasts' gatherings and JK fashion enthusiasts' gatherings.

She also replied to several girls' messages, and then she received an email that she had asked someone to help her find out. The email contained Lin An's photos, including her birthday and life experiences.

She was an abandoned baby from the Blue Sky Orphanage more than a decade ago, and was later adopted along with another little girl.

He had excellent grades in junior high school and was always first in his grade, but he was not considered a good student by his teachers because he was a gang leader in the school, smoking, drinking and skipping classes. However, he had excellent grades and they were reluctant to expel him.

There was also puppy love, but only one. However, when Xiao Chacha saw that name, she was stunned for about five seconds.

The girl he had a crush on in his early years... was someone that both Su Yuejin and Xiao Chacha knew, but her status was different from theirs. They were at most second-generation rich kids with some family wealth, not people in power or people in charge, but that girl... had started to gradually take over the family's things after junior high school.

Moreover, now... her entire family is about to be taken over by her. Even her parents' generation, although they speak to her as elders to juniors, are actually equals.

How did this guy manage to date that person back then...? That enchanting girl.

Fortunately, the two broke up in the third year of junior high school. At that time, it didn't cause a big fuss. It was just a simple case of calling their parents because of puppy love. The school didn't even handle it. Instead, the other person's parents met with Lin An, and then the two separated.

The month before that incident happened to be the time when Lin An's adoptive parents were in a car accident. The boy must have been grieving during that time... And then the girl who was close to him also left. Would he hate her?

The rest of the information is that he was depressed for a while, but still got into his current high school with excellent grades. However, in his current high school, he became more low-key. Apart from his excellent grades, he had no outstanding qualities, no good friends, and no enemies, but he was also not very close to anyone.

That was all the information she could find. Xiao Chacha read through it all, her eyes slightly narrowed, lost in thought.

Her meeting with Lin An was purely coincidental. Because she loved playing games, she randomly selected a gaming companion. But who would have thought that this companion would be so good at making her happy, so she played for a while longer. And then that day, she heard the name Su Yuejin again.

What does Su Yuejin mean to Xiao Chacha?

In fact, Xiao Chacha and Su Yuejin had known each other for a long time, and their relationship was quite good. However, after Xiao Chacha confessed her feelings to Su Yuejin, Su Yuejin deliberately distanced herself from her.

In the end, she was even scolded by her, so Xiao Chacha wisely withdrew. She knew that Su Yuejin could be replaced by someone else. Just when she gradually stopped caring about Su Yuejin, she heard that Su Yuejin had been defiled by someone else, and the other person didn't seem to love her.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chacha couldn't quite discern her own thoughts—perhaps schadenfreude, or perhaps anger...? Therefore, she planned to meet with Lin An next week. If Lin An's performance didn't meet her expectations, then Lin An... might have some bad luck on his way home, perhaps encountering troublemakers and getting beaten up, ending up in the hospital for a few months.

But now she has met Lin An ahead of time, but Lin An's behavior has not made her so angry. He seems to be a quiet and gentle person.

Xiao Chacha sighed softly. She didn't know what she was thinking. After all, Su Yuejin shouldn't have been a part of her life. Whenever she started thinking about her, a greedy possessiveness would erode her thoughts, making her wish she could tie Su Yuejin to her side. But of course, she knew she couldn't do that.

It was getting late, and Xiao Chacha planned to take a nap. She wasn't in the mood to play games anymore. But just as she lay down on the bed, her phone suddenly rang. It was an unfamiliar number, but she felt like she recognized it somewhere, though she couldn't quite place where she had seen it before.

Xiao Chacha chose to answer the phone. The voice on the other end was cold and icy, like an ancient block of ice, yet it inexplicably instilled a sense of fear in people.

"Xiao Chacha, you're investigating a person named Lin An, aren't you?" The person's voice was full of accusation.

"who are you?"

The person said a name, and Xiao Chacha was stunned, her eyes widening. Her voice became somewhat stiff, "Yes, what's wrong?"

“I know about your messy affair with Su Yuejin, and I know that Lin An is with Su Yuejin now, but… Xiao Chacha, if you dare to lay a finger on him because of this, I will make you kowtow to me and beg me to let you go.”

"You can also take it as a joke." The man's voice was somber and serious, clearly not a joke.

"This joke isn't funny... but I understand." Xiao Chacha still responded softly, and then the person on the other end hung up the phone.

Xiao Chacha tossed her phone aside and frowned. After all, no matter what, the fact that the person could use such a confrontational approach to speak to Lin An the moment they called showed how much they cared about him.

You should know that in everyone's eyes, she is a girl who is rational and clear-headed, almost like a demon.

Xiao Chacha felt like she had fallen into an interesting vortex. She sat up in bed excitedly, no longer sleepy, and instead sent a message to Lin An, "Want to play a game?"

"Wait twenty minutes, I'll have some food and wash the dishes."

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you."

..........................................

Meanwhile, Lin An was quietly washing the dishes.

Xu Qinghuan was watching TV on the sofa, but she was lying down, wearing a white pleated skirt. She was lying quietly on her side when Lin An came out of the kitchen and called out to her, "Come and massage your sister's legs."

"You."

Lin An still came over and sat on the sofa. Xu Qinghuan couldn't wait to put her legs on his lap, and then Lin An's fingertips gently touched her skin.

A few minutes later, Lin An withdrew his hand and told Xu Qinghuan that he was going to play games. Xu Qinghuan let him go, went back to the house, turned on the computer and entered the voice channel. Cha Cha's voice came from the other end.

"Hey, hey, hey? Are you there? You finally have some free time?"
