Ajie and Lin An also went to the food stall. Ajie sat down and flipped through the menu. "Have you guys ordered?"
Mu Zilin nodded. "We've ordered a few dishes."
Ajie took the menu and ordered a few more dishes.
They sat in a circle. Ajie looked at Mu Ziyu and said, "Ziyu, I have something to tell you in private."
Mu Ziyu raised his eyebrows and nodded. "Then let's talk there."
Ziyu and Ajie stood up and walked away from their table until they were quite a distance but still close by. Ajie lowered her head because her heart was beating very fast. She wanted to tell Ziyu that she liked him. "Ziyu, I like you. I've liked you for a long time."
"Sorry. I already have someone I like," Ziyu answered straightforwardly. Although this woman had previously shown that she liked him, Ziyu's attitude towards her had already shown her that he wasn't interested. He did not expect her to confess her feelings despite his actions. However, he did not think too much about rejecting her. Because the other party did not expose their relationship, it was inappropriate for him to say that he liked someone else. It was too deliberate.
Ajie heard it, but she did not really listen to it. She continued and said, "I've always liked you very much. Since the second year of college, I've been quietly observing you. I've discovered that you're a gentle and refined man. You're very gentle to everyone."
"I'm sorry. Even so, it has nothing to do with me, right? If there's nothing else, I'll go back first." Mu Ziyu turned around and left.
There was nothing much to say. He rejected every confession directly. If those who liked him had imagined things to happen in their favor, there was nothing he could do. He had already said what he needed to say. What Ajie thought was up to her.
Mu Ziyu returned to his seat. Ajie's expression didn't change, but her heart was as dead as ash. 'Did he reject me? Why is it like this?' Moreover, she saw how Mu Zilin coldly glanced over at her, and she couldn't say anything more. She just watched as Mu Ziyu returned to his seat to chat and laugh with the others.
She felt that she had suffered a huge blow, but she still braced herself and forced a smile and returned to the table. Lin An roughly knew that Mu Ziyu would reject Ajie. This was because every woman who had been rejected by Mu Ziyu would feel disillusioned. When Mu Ziyu rejected others, he would be very heartless. Ziyu was not tender-hearted. He simply thought too much. When he needed to be ruthless, Mu Ziyu wasn't so gentle. In fact, many of them seemed gentle, but in reality, they were very cold.
The dishes were served. Shuishui happily ate the food. It wasn't good for her to eat greasy food at night. However, Shuishui believed that since she only occasionally ate greasy food, it would not really affect her health.
The salt-and-pepper shrimp tasted really good. Shuishui was very satisfied because the food at the stall they had chosen looked good and tasted even better.
Mu Zilin watched Shuishui as she ate. "Shuishui, you're eating faster and faster now."
"It's not bad and it tastes pretty good," Shuishui said with a smile.
"Hmm . . . I feel that today's food tastes especially good." Mu Zilin nodded and picked up a piece of fish and placed it in Shuishui's bowl because it was a little far from her.
Mu Ziyu soon understood why he felt that Shuishui was special. It was because she was really different. The feeling she gave him was that she was very pure and very intelligent. He had seen many women like her, but he did not have any feelings for them. Shuishui, however, made him feel that he cared. He had also sorted out that slight throb. However, she was only in her first year of high school, so he had to take it slow and not scare her.
Shuishui had no idea that she had become the object of Mu Ziyu's affections.
Lin An, on the other hand, was the calmest among them. After all, he had a clear view of the situation. Although Mu Ziyu was always relatively gentle to others, it was rare to see him treat a woman so gently. He noticed that his gaze always rested on Shuishui.
Mu Zilin was more careless and didn't notice anything.
Mu Ziyu also picked up some food to put on Shuishui's bowl. Shuishui said, "I want to eat, but it's nighttime now. I had eaten enough."
