My Youth Began With Him

This was Su Yu’s first time asking someone out, so he said it with reserve. He didn’t say stuff like ’I like you’ or ’I’m in love with you’. All he said was, ’Do you want to date me? I’ll be good to you’. But how could Huo Mian not understand a sentence as straightforward and simple as this?

After a while, Huo Mian turned around to ask, ”Are you addicted to cheating?”

”What?” Su Yu frowned.

”Don’t you have a girlfriend already? Is it okay to say something like this to me? I think it’s considered cheating. Our country preaches monogamy. If you cheat, you’ll be called a cheating asshole, so, for your own image, you really shouldn’t.”

”Those aren’t actual girlfriends; at most, they’re women.” Su Yu was clear to draw the line.

All these years, including Zhao Qingya, his relationship with those women was just a combination of money and s*x.

He was just looking for a way out of boredom and loneliness and didn’t really fall in love with anyone, so he was just playing games.

Therefore, he didn’t think that he was cheating; on the other hand, he thought Huo Mian was making too big of a deal out of it.

”Oh, maybe I’m not up to date with stuff like this, but I have a boyfriend, and I don’t want to be called a cheating b*tch. Most importantly, I won’t leave him. We are in love and have a stable relationship. Thank you for your kindness, I hope that you can live a healthy life and be happy in your work.”

Then, Huo Mian turned on her heels and left…

Live a healthy life? Be happy in your work? She was weird, does she have to be so unique, even in her rejection? Su Yu’s entire face fell. The first time he expressed his feelings towards a girl, he felt as if someone poured a bucket of ice water down his back…

After he returned to his room, Su Yu, unhappy, took out his phone and typed in a WeChat group filled with close friends, ”What should I do if a girl I like has a boyfriend?”

”Make her sleep with you. That’s how people fall in love,” one of his buddies replied.

”Steal her, no one in C City is your match. You have more money and better looks.”

”Offer her boyfriend money and make him back off. That’ll give you a chance.”

”Just ask her what she wants and fulfill all her wishes. By then, she’ll want to sleep with you.”

Although all his buddies had a point, Su Yu didn’t think that any of those methods would work on Huo Mian.

Make her sleep with him? That was degrading to him – he was good looking and had a hefty background. Did he really need to force somebody to sleep with him?

It would be such an embarrassment if other people found out.

Steal her? That was too over-the-top; plus, with Huo Mian’s personality, she would probably end up hating him. What kind of future would they have then?

Give her boyfriend money? Su Yu immediately eliminated that option. He didn’t know what Huo Mian’s boyfriend did for a living, as he had yet to find out anything about him. That alone means that he was definitely someone with a hefty background; would he really accept Su Yu’s money?

As for fulfilling all her wishes… he had tried that already; Huo Mian laughed at him and called him a genie…

Therefore, nothing would work, and all the above suggestions were moot…

”What’s going on? Did the prettiest girl on this earth appear in C City? Did she break Big Boy Su’s heart?” one of his buddies gossiped.

As one of the four princes, Wei Liao was close to Su Yu. He sent a smirking emoji to the group when he saw Su Yu’s question.

Then, he wrote, ”Men aren’t loyal. If they are, it’s because the temptation isn’t enough. Women aren’t loyal either. If they are, it’s because you haven’t offered her enough to betray her boyfriend. If you offer her enough, you’ll succeed.”

After Su Yu saw this, he thought about it and became even more depressed…

After his discharge, it would be much harder for him to see Huo Mian…

After Huo Mian got off work, she was going to head back to Imperial Park when Zhixin called her. She immediately went to his school.

Zhixin stood before a yellow sports car; he looked distracted.

”Sis, is my car pretty?”

”Where did you get it?” Huo Mian frowned, a little unhappy.

”A few days ago, a company sponsored an electric car designing competition, and my design won first place. This is the prize the company gave me.”

”Isn’t that a good thing? Why is your expression weird?” Huo Mian saw right through her brother.

Zhixin looked down. After a moment’s thought, he said, ”Sis, I don’t want to lie to you. The sponsor… is GK.”

Huo Mian’s expression changed when she heard what he said…
