Chapter 308: Let Me Introduce You to Someone Else
Xie Zheng felt that Ye Qingbai and he had become much closer because of this drinking session.
Sure enough, the quickest way for men to connect is to have a drink.
Xie Zheng poured more drinks for the two of them, and looking at Ye Qingbai, he said casually, "What about you? You don't seem to be in a good mood either. What's wrong? Talk to your brother about it, and see if I can help you out."
"You can't solve it."
Ye Qingbai looked distressed and downed the wine in one gulp.
Let me guess.
Xie Zheng squinted, pretending to be deep in thought as he stroked his chin and began to analyze, "It shouldn't be work-related, after all, you're on vacation right now."
“If something had happened at home, you would have already taken a bus back to Bincheng, and you wouldn’t have had time to drink with me.”
After going around in circles, Xie Zheng suddenly had a look of realization on his face. "Could it be a problem with your relationship?"
He looked at Ye Qingbai and laughed, "What's wrong? Suddenly lost confidence? Feeling like your goddess is too hard to pursue and want to give up?"
Xie Zheng brought up the topic, but Ye Qingbai didn't answer him directly. He looked up at Xie Zheng and asked in return, "Tell me, is there really no possibility between me and Lu Shan?"
Xie Zheng unconsciously avoided his gaze, picked up a piece of cucumber with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth, casually saying, "You have to ask yourself that. Do you feel there's a chance? You should be the one who can best feel her attitude towards you."
What others say is all empty talk; only your own feelings matter.
But some people just like to get stuck on a single point.
I like to deceive myself.
Ye Qingbo said, "She rejected me."
Xie Zheng, who already knew the answer, put down his chopsticks and nodded faintly, "Oh..."
"You have experience in this area, so tell me, do I still have a chance?" Ye Qingbo looked at him hopefully and pressed for an answer.
He desperately needed comfort and advice from Xie Zheng to help him get back on his feet.
He was rejected so suddenly that he really didn't know how to go on.
Xie Zheng didn't know how to answer him.
To be honest, he didn't want to discourage Ye Qingbo.
but.........
I didn't want to lie to him either.
Ye Qingbai noticed Xie Zheng's troubled expression, and his heart sank even further.
"Tell me your opinion, without worrying about my feelings."
Xie Zheng remained silent for a long time before finally speaking helplessly, "It will most likely be very difficult."
"I encouraged you to bravely pursue love before because I didn't want to discourage you, but pursuing my cousin is really not an easy task."
As an observer, I have no reason or standing to advise someone to give up something they are passionate about.
Only the most sincere encouragement can motivate them to try.
Because if they fail to succeed, they might give up on their own.
He met Ye Qingbai's dim eyes and cruelly reminded him, "My cousin has someone in her heart."
Xie Zheng's heart was filled with complex emotions. To be honest, he and Lu Shan were the same kind of people.
They all harbor a feeling that there is no future for them.
Yet, she still stubbornly couldn't let go.
Their hearts are already filled, or to put it more bluntly, their hearts are already dead when it comes to feelings.
It's simply impossible for me to accept another person into my inner world.
Therefore, Lu Shan's decisive rejection of Ye Qingbai was entirely within his expectations.
"Qingbai, why don't we give up?"
This was the most sincere advice he could give Ye Qingbai.
If he wants to pursue Lu Shan, it will be really, really difficult.
Moreover, Lu Shan is quite different from him. She has a cool and aloof personality, and is quite successful in her career, with endless work every day.
It can be said that he has a very promising future.
Even when she's dating the person she loves, she has very little personal time to spare.
Moreover, now...
She couldn't possibly take the time to develop a relationship with a man she didn't love.
Ye Qingbo is not one to be idle; he will soon be back to work.
He doesn't have time to waste here.
give up?
Ye Qingbo's handsome face was somber, and he lowered his eyes, remaining silent.
Yesterday you were encouraging him to bravely pursue the person he loves, and today you're advising him to give up?
ill.
"What do you like about her?"
Xie Zheng knew that going straight to the point was useless, so he tried to persuade him from another angle.
When this topic was mentioned, Ye Qingbai's handsome face immediately changed, softening and his eyes filled with tenderness. "She is very beautiful, with an indescribable charm. She is the only female surgeon in the orthopedic department, and she is a goddess in my heart."
"That's it? I know plenty of female military doctors who are just as outstanding as her."
Xie Zheng looked disgusted and complained, "She's thirty years old and has been working for seven or eight years. Isn't it normal for her to have achieved this much? What's so admirable about her? She's just average-looking, not even as pretty as Bai Zhi."
"Besides, Lu Shan's personality is too cold. If you're with an ice block like her, you'll freeze to death. She has no fun at all, and she's boring and dull."
Upon hearing Xie Zheng's complaints about Lu Shan, Ye Qingbai's handsome face hardened slightly, and his gaze towards Xie Zheng turned cold.
Xie Zheng, however, was completely oblivious to his change in mood and continued, "Listen to me, you have to be realistic when looking for a partner. Find a lively and cheerful girl who is clingy and admires you. That way, life will be more interesting in the future."
He looked at Ye Qingbo with sparkling eyes and said, "Can I introduce someone to you?"
As soon as Xie Zheng finished speaking, he felt a chill on his face.
He raised his hand and wiped his face.
Ye Qingbai put down the empty wine cup in his hand and looked at him coldly, "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll beat you up."
"Look at you, what's the big deal? You splashed wine all over my face, isn't that impolite?"
Xie Zheng took out a small handkerchief from his pocket, slowly wiped his face, and then wiped his hands.
He wasn't angry at Ye Qingbai's behavior. He wiped the wine off his face and looked at Ye Qingbai. "Brother, I'm going to tell you even if you don't want to."
"Take advantage of the fact that you're not too emotionally invested yet, and quickly pull yourself out of it and find someone else to date."
He lowered his eyes, his expression bitter, and muttered to himself, "Don't make the person you can't have your obsession. That will cause you a lot of pain, make you paranoid, and even cause psychological problems."
I don't want you to become like that.
"That's too painful."
Looking into Xie Zheng's dark eyes, Ye Qingbai finally understood what he meant.
Xie Zheng wiped his face hard with both hands, looking at Ye Qingbai with extremely serious eyes, "My cousin and I are the kind of obsessive people I was just talking about."
"We've already struggled to get out of this mess, and we don't want to drag you down with us."
Ye Qingbai fell silent after hearing his words.
