Liang Shi: "No."
The voice was cold, but the tone was still gentle; only the tone was harsh.
It was completely different from when she was holding and comforting Xu Qingzhu earlier.
"Then why did you yell at me?" Xu Qingzhu said again.
Liang Shi: "...Hmm."
Her "hmm" was soft, but anyone could tell she was unhappy.
He even frankly admitted that he was being harsh with her.
Xu Qingzhu was stunned for two seconds, but then she was amused by her.
An eerie silence fell over the room.
A moment later, Xu Qingzhu got up, grabbed her pillow, and went out.
The door was gently closed.
Liang Shi: "?"
//
Liang Shi, who had been hiding in the darkness, suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze clear and bright.
The complex emotions in my heart turned into bewilderment and shock.
They're leaving already?
Aren't you going to comfort her?
Although... it seems... there's no need to coax him.
But deep down, Liang Shi still held a sliver of hope.
Furthermore, Xu Qingzhu took her pillow with her.
So, Xu Qingzhu got angry?
She even got so angry that she took her own pillow. Is she planning to sleep outside?
Liang Shi was completely baffled, and felt a deep sense of unease.
Or should we explain it to her again?
Liang Shi didn't know what kind of emotion he felt just now. It seemed like he was a little embarrassed by being teased, and also shy about having revealed his past. Mainly, seeing Xu Qingzhu's uncontrollable laughter made him feel like she was laughing at him for never having been in a relationship.
...That world doesn't really allow her to fall in love.
Besides, she's so busy, she doesn't have time to spend with her girlfriend.
Xiao Bai once said that she is a bit of a romantic.
Liang Shi was infinitely tolerant of any topic related to his partner. For example, in an interview, the host asked Liang Shi, "If you fall in love in the future and your partner misses you a lot, what will you do?"
Liang Shi visualized the problem, conjuring up the image of a crybaby girlfriend in his mind, and immediately said, "Go and keep her company."
The host then asked, "What if you were still filming?"
"I need to finish filming quickly so I can see her," Liang Shi said.
Xiaobai teased her for her answer, saying she really knew how to charm her fans.
Liang Shi replied with a sincere expression, "I'm serious."
Xiao Bai was stunned and exclaimed that she was love-struck.
At the time, Leung didn't understand what "love-obsessed" meant, but later, when filming, her co-star was a complete "love-obsessed" character. She would make ginger tea for her partner, and if her partner said they missed her, she would immediately rush over. When her boyfriend didn't have time for her, she would thoughtfully come up with excuses for her.
Oh right, Xiaobai called this behavior "self-indulgent love brain".
The whole internet is saying that the character is love-struck and begging her not to be so naive.
It even trended on social media, even though it was paid for by the production company.
What Liang Shi didn't say was that she could understand all of the character's actions.
And I didn't find it unreasonable.
When you're in a relationship... it's all about being tolerant of your partner. Who told you to like them?
If she's busy, take the initiative.
After all, having a girlfriend is already quite difficult.
It's okay if your girlfriend isn't clingy, but it's also fine if she is.
If your girlfriend thinks she's clingy, she can find something to do on her own.
Liang Shishi's initial ideas were excellent, but he lacked practical experience.
Before she died, she wasn't thinking: "I haven't cleared my name yet."
Instead, he said, "I have never been in love in my short life."
Is it shameful to have never been in a relationship?
...
It's not shameful.
Why is Xu Qingzhu laughing?
And he was laughing so happily.
Liang Shi felt she had been mocked, and her feelings were too complex to be accurately summarized by her limited vocabulary.
All I could do was sigh.
She sat on the bed, looking at the door that had just been gently closed, and irritably ran her fingers through her hair. Maybe... she should go out and apologize?
She probably said something too harsh.
Xu Qingzhu was spoiled growing up, and such a little princess must have never suffered such grievances.
You can tell just by looking at her house; no one has ever been mean to her.
Liang Shi thought to herself, as an Alpha, it was only right for her to coax the pampered Xu Qingzhu.
She kept trying to mentally prepare herself, but if she went to coax him, she would inevitably end up like before, unable to speak properly and being ridiculed by Xu Qingzhu.
I've never coaxed anyone before, I have no experience.
Liang Shi's heart was in turmoil, he was extremely conflicted.
She even started picking up her phone to search for ways to appease someone who was angry...
She paused here, thought for a few seconds, and then typed with trembling fingers—girlfriend.
The completed question is: How do I appease an angry girlfriend?
The answers that came up below were all: buy a car, buy flowers, buy a diamond ring.
...
It was late at night, and Liang Shi was truly powerless to do anything about it.
A slightly more reliable answer is to say nice things to her, such as: "Baby, don't be angry, it's all my fault."
For example: Come here, can I give you a hug?
For example: "What did I do wrong? Please tell me, okay? I promise it won't happen again."
For example, hug her tightly and kiss her passionately until your legs go weak and you forget you were angry.
...
Liang Shi nervously clicked in, and his hand trembled as he clicked out.
None of them seem very reliable.
Frustrated, she placed her phone on the bedside table again and stared blankly at the closed door.
Xu Qingzhu wouldn't actually go outside and cry, would she?
Liang Shi listened intently and thought he could hear the sound of water.
...
She's so wicked, why did she have to yell at her for no reason?
Liang Shi recalled her smile just now, and to be honest, it was a rare sight to see her smile.
The dim light shone on her, making her skin appear even whiter in her light orange silk pajamas. Her flawless face seemed like a gift from the Creator, and every part of her was captivating.
Her soft, fine hair spread out like seaweed on the light-colored sheets, exuding a natural and captivating charm.
She wore a silver necklace around her neck, with a starry pendant in the center, exuding innocence and romance.
She possesses a perfect blend of innocence and allure.
A little more would be excessive, a little less would be insufficient.
Even now, when I think back on it, I still want to gently trace the line across her collarbone.
Liang Shi slapped his forehead in frustration, his heart filled with even more turmoil.
A few seconds later, she finally couldn't hold back any longer, threw off the blanket she had put on while she was angry, and resignedly got out of bed.
It's just an apology.
It's just that Xu Qingzhu mocked him.
Anything is better than making Xu Qingzhu cry.
If she cries, she will be punished by the bad luck system.
Yes, I went there to avoid being punished.
Besides, she was also at fault just now, so I'll go and coax her a little.
Xu Qingzhu has coaxed her so many times, so it won't matter if she coaxes her just once.
Having mentally prepared himself, Liang Shi went outside barefoot without even putting on shoes.
The ground was chilly in late autumn, and the autumn wind relentlessly battered the windowpanes, making the room feel cold.
