Reborn As a Top Student In the 1990s

Chapter 73 Confession

Chapter 74 Confession

Fang Qing was still struggling with the quilt when Wen Ning came back with a plate of watermelon. Seeing her like this, he felt very cute.

“Come and eat watermelon. My eldest sister spent the entire afternoon at the well. It’s sweet and cold.”

Fang Qing's mind was filled with what Wen Ning had just said, so he had no intention of eating. When he saw Wen Ning approaching, he lay down directly under the quilt and huddled under the quilt.

"I won't eat. I'm sleepy. You, go back and rest." A muffled voice came, making Wen Ning raise his eyebrows in surprise.

You want to send him away with such a crude excuse, pretending that he can't see it?

Wen Ning didn't say anything. He put down the watermelon and opened the door. With a creaking sound, the door closed again.

Fang Qing, who was hiding under the quilt, heard the knock on the door and listened quietly for a while. When he saw that there was no movement, he felt relieved and opened the quilt to take a deep breath.

 “Oh my god, I’m gone...”

 “You are very happy when I leave...”

Wen Ning's voice sounded a bit cold behind Fang Qing. Fang Qing was so frightened that he sat up suddenly, "You, didn't you leave?"

Wen Ning crossed his arms and sat down by the bed, getting closer, his face was calmer than Fang Qing had ever seen before, "If I leave, I won't be able to hear your truth. I just didn't expect you to hate me so much. "

Fang Qing saw a bit of disappointment and hurt on his face, and suddenly felt a little panicked, "No, no, I don't hate you..."

Wen Ning was a little depressed, "You must be tired of letting me go in such a hurry."

Fang Qing shook his head quickly, "I've never thought about it that way. It's just that I... don't know how to answer what you just said."

Of course she didn't hate Wen Ning. Logically speaking, she should be excited when such a good man confessed his love to her, but instead she felt very flustered and uneasy.

 Because she has low self-esteem. How can she be worthy of Feng Qinglang Yue's Wen Ning if she is so ordinary? He deserves better.

What's more, Wen Ning is the person Xiaoyu likes, so she can't do this.

“You, don’t you like Xiaoyu? And Xiaoyu also likes you. I am Xiaoyu’s friend, so I think what you said is inappropriate.”

Wen Ning frowned after hearing this explanation, "Xiaoyu? She is my sister, and that girl has been like this since she was a child. When she sees a good-looking brother, she yells to marry him. You don't need to pay attention."

But Fang Qing felt that this matter was not as simple as Wen Ning thought. She shook her head with a very serious face, "Xiaoyu once told me that you were the only one who was good to her since she was a child, so she vowed to marry you. I think She doesn’t look like she’s joking, so I think you need to figure this out first.”

Wen Ning lowered his head and thought for a moment, then nodded, "So... it seems that I want to keep it simple, but Xiaoyu and I are really not what you think."

Wen Ning thought about the past and felt that since he had made his intentions clear, it would be better to speak clearly about many things. He did not want to cause any misunderstanding between the two of them.

"Xiaoyu was only five years old when she first came to our house. Uncle Tang was on an emergency mission and left the child at the door and left. The child didn't cry even in the winter. When I found out, his face was so cold that his face turned pale. Zi, it was my mother and I who worked together to save her. Maybe it was because of the baby bird situation, but the child has been very dependent on me since then..."

As Wen Ning recalled the past, Fang Qing leaned against the bed and listened quietly. It seemed that everything in front of him was the past of a frail little girl seeking warmth.

Wen Ning was also impatient at first. He hid in the study every day and ignored the child. After all, he was still a child himself. How could he have the patience to take care of a baby who was only two years younger than him?

But one day the coal stove in Wen Ning's house was not burning completely, and Wen Ning gradually lost consciousness while suffocating in the house. It was Xiaoyu who discovered the clues first and called the neighbors crying, which saved him from being smoked to death.

At that moment, Wen Ning looked at the crying girl hugging his legs and suddenly felt that he was a little cruel. Then after learning about Xiaoyu's pitiful life experience, Wen Ning felt a little more sympathetic.

"So, I treat her like my own sister, and I am more patient than I am with Reiko. It is also because of this that Reiko has thought that we are all partial to Xiaoyu since she was a child. In fact, she is just more tolerant."

But Fang Qing still didn't believe it, "You have never been so gentle and indulgent to a girl, and... you two do look like a couple when you get along..."

Wen Ning rubbed his eyebrows. It seemed that his past behavior caused Fang Qing to misunderstand a lot! He really didn't think too much about Xiaoyu. His past habits might really be misunderstood in the eyes of others.

It was at this moment that Wen Ning truly understood that he still knew too little about women. He can solve complex problems and see through other people's tricks, but he cannot understand their delicate thoughts.

"Fang Qing, to be honest, no one has ever told me this before, and I haven't paid attention to it. If you hadn't said it directly today, I wouldn't have known that I was such a person in the eyes of others."

Wen Ning paused and looked at Fang Qing, "Xiaoyu is my sister in my eyes, and I will make it clear to her. Now, can you consider the question I just asked?"

Fang Qing let out a breath. Although Xiaoyu’s matter was explained clearly, she still couldn’t believe it. Another important reason was...

 “Don’t you... like boys? So it’s still impossible for us.”

After Fang Qing was silent for a long time, Wen Ning almost choked on his own saliva when he heard this explanation.

“Ahem... Who are you talking about? I am a pure man, and my sexual orientation is... normal.”

Fang Qing glared and argued, "I'm not talking nonsense. I was running at night in the winter of my freshman year of high school. I saw you with my own eyes... you and a boy... hugging each other!"

Wen Ning had a question mark on his head, "I did participate in the night run, but I did it with everyone every time. After I ran, I went back to the dormitory. Are you sure the person you saw was me?"

Fang Qing recalled the situation that day. Although it had been a long time, the impression was so profound that Fang Qing still remembered Wen Ning's clothes and the situation at that time.

After hearing this, Wen Ning finally understood, "I only wore that dress once. Later, it was borrowed by a classmate in my class. When I got it back, it had a cut and I never wore it again. So, the person you are talking about, not me."

Fang Qing scratched his head, lowered his head and muttered in embarrassment, "It's not you... I still treat you as a sister..."

Looking at Fang Qing's expression, Wen Ning relaxed a little, "Fang Qing, I am very serious. Please don't worry about it. What do you think of me? Tell me the truth. Even if you want me to give up, Give me a break."

ˆ’s gentle voice and focused eyes made Fang Qing unable to say even a single word, "Okay, then you, please sit down first..."

Wen Ning sat up straight and looked at her, waiting for her answer.

Fang Qing sighed, glanced at Wen Ning, and began to think about how to answer this question.
