[Chapter 218]
It was impossible!
However, he tried to pretend as if nothing had happened to hide the inferiority buried deep in his heart.
Besides, he was afraid Celia treated him that way out of gratitude!
He thought she was pitying him.
Therefore, what little pride and reason he had left told him that girls like Celia were beyond his reach.
After he got Sarah, he slowly forgot about Celia.
Three years had passed. Besides exchanging a couple of words when they sent their blessings during holidays, they barely talked.
He did not expect her to text him out of the blue.
She must have read the message he sent in the group chat!
He sent a message back.
David: (I'm fine! What about you, Celia?]
On the other side.
Celia stared at the screen of her phone as it finally received a response.
She was instantly overjoyed.
She typed another message and sent it to David.
Celia: (I'm fine too! David, when are you coming to Capital City? I'll show you around the international metropolis! Capital City's interesting and has many tourist attractions!)
David: (Sure! It just so happens that I might be coming to Capital City in a few days! I will be bothering you then because I'm not familiar with Capital City.]
Celia froze when she saw David's message.
'David's coming to Capital City?
'And in a few days?
'I didn't dream it, did I?'.
Celia: (Really? Are you sure you're not teasing me?)
David: [Of course!),
Celia: (We have a deal then. Contact me when you come to Capital City!)
David: (Okay!)
Celia: (David!]
David: (Hmm?]
Celia: (I heard you broke up with Sarah.]
David: (Yeah! You must have seen it in the group chat! But I didn't expect her to turn out like this!]
Celia: (Don't feel bad. It's not your fault! You're a victim too!)
David: (I'm fine. The worst is over. I'll welcome the future with a smile.)
Celia: (Okay! I'll be here for you!)
After Celia sent the message, her cheeks turned bright red. It was so good-looking!
At the same time, she was extremely nervous as she began to breathe quickly. She did not know how David would respond to her!
It was pretty obvious what she meant when she said that, right?
David was stunned by the message.
Frankly, it would be a lie to say that David was not attracted to a girl like Celia.
However, he had strong self-control. He would not think about or touch what was not meant t o be his.
He and Celia had been two parallel lines that would never meet.
In the end, he chose Sarah. Back then, he did not think there was that much difference between him and Sarah.
However, it was different now.
He had a system, and the two parallel lines had reached a meeting point.
Therefore, David decided to go with the flow and not deliberately avoid it.
However, he had just broken up with Sarah and was not ready to open up to someone else and move on just yet.
Sarah had hurt him so much.
He ended up with this result after four years of hard work. If he had not gotten the system and changed the trajectory of his life, what would have happened to him?
The laughingstock of SRU, the object of Leo's humiliation, and even something for Sarah to brag up.
He would never be able to hold his head up in school!
