Li Juan knew her daughter well; she definitely wouldn't let go of her long-standing resentment towards her parents just because of a pretty phone.
"Well, maybe Panpan is just in a good mood today!"
Huang Hongbo agreed, and then asked,
"By the way, a few packs of cigarettes have suddenly disappeared from my desk. Did you take them to give to your dad?"
"Do I look like I'm out of money? If I wanted to give my dad cigarettes, wouldn't I just take yours secretly, Huang Hongbo?"
"I didn't mean it like that; am I not allowed to ask casually?"
"You're suspicious of me!"
"..."
After hanging up, Huang Panpan stood up: "Uncle, Auntie, I need to head home; otherwise, my parents will start worrying. I'll visit you and Senior again next time! Goodbye!"
"Alright, Panpan, goodbye!"
Huang Jianjun and Zhao Lixia accompanied her to the door and stuffed a few packs of cigarettes back, refusing to accept them no matter what.
"I'll walk her out!"
Su Zelin volunteered.
Some things couldn't be said in front of the parents, but needed a private conversation between the two.
The two elders had no objections. At this time of night, it wasn't safe for a fragile girl to walk alone. Even if Su Zelin hadn't offered, they would have insisted he take Huang Panpan home.
"Uncle, Auntie, thank you for your hospitality tonight!"
Before leaving, Huang Panpan bowed to the two elders, then got on her bike and left with Su Zelin.
Upon reaching Lijing District where Huang Panpan lived, Su Zelin didn't leave immediately. He stopped his bike.
"Well, Huang Panpan, I need to make this clear. There's really no future for us. You're not right for me—I'm full of flaws, bad-tempered, and not to mention, unhygienic. I can wear one pair of underwear for three days front and four days back, going a whole week without changing!"
Pleading rationally wouldn't deter Huang Panpan, so he had to resort to extreme measures to achieve his goals.
Su Zelin was desperate, and kept badmouthing himself.
"That's fine. Loving someone means accepting their flaws. Who doesn't have flaws in this world?"
Huang Panpan said calmly.
Su Zelin thought, are these even flaws?
Someone who wears a pair of underwear for three days on the front and three days on the back could easily be considered a pervert, right?
Could it be that as a handsome guy like me, my poo really smells sweet?
"I'm also a playboy. As long as it's a pretty girl, I want to flirt with her. In the future, I might even casually go for massages!"
Su Zelin tried hard again to dissuade her.
"It doesn't matter, as long as I'm the most important person in Senior's heart. Besides, I don't believe you because I'm quite pretty, yet Senior didn't flirt with me. As for wanting a massage, if you don't have money, I can give it to you."
Huang Panpan smiled.
Su Zelin chuckled wryly.
Look, everyone, can you reason with such a woman?
If she's willing to pay for your massages, it means she doesn't love you; she just wants to possess you, to keep you!
Am I, Su, someone who lives off a woman?
Of course not, as everyone knows!
Su Zelin gritted his teeth: "Okay then, at this point, I must tell you a shocking secret... I actually like boys!"
This time, Huang Panpan finally showed a glimmer of emotion.
"My deskmate Lu Haoran, you know him, right? The nerdy-looking guy? Actually, he's the one I like!"
Haoran, I'm sorry.
Bro, I'm really desperate; I'm forced into this phony deal.
If it damages your reputation, I'll buy you extra drinks as an apology later.
"Is that so?"
Huang Panpan furrowed her brows.
Seeing her waver, Su Zelin was pleased and quickly pressed the advantage.
"I swear, if I'm lying, I'm a dog. Otherwise, why do you think Qin Shiqing lives next door to me and I don't pursue her? Because I like boys!"
"As the ancients said, men and women are just for procreation; real love is between men! As someone well-read in classics, I deeply agree!"
"Also, I've sworn that this life, unless it's Lu Haoran, I won't marry anyone else. Should I fall in love with someone different, may the heavens strike me down and spare me no mercy!"
Su Zelin pointed to the sky.
Damn, I refuse to believe I'm so unlucky that I could be struck down a second time!
If I do get struck dead, I'll just be reincarnated again!
Suddenly, Huang Panpan remembered something, and the serious expression on her face melted away.
"Senior, I don't believe it!"
"Why not?"
"Because I saw you at an internet cafe browsing those kinds of things, which shows your interests are normal!"
Su Zelin: "..."
That time was on purpose, trying to gross out Huang Panpan. Who knew she not only stayed but watched it with me?
Sigh, if I had known, I would've put on a fencing match!
Suddenly, Su Zelin regretted it very much.
He had exhausted his arguments, but all in vain, unable to drive away Huang Panpan, leaving him no choice but to give up.
And not only was this junior giving him headaches, his parents at home needed placating too.
Although just now, his parents understood a bit more from Huang Panpan, they certainly wouldn't be satisfied with just that; he'd surely face intensive questioning upon returning home.
Throughout his journey home, Su Zelin pondered countless explanations, finally realizing just before reaching home,
Wait a minute, I'm the victim being harassed; why should I feel guilty?
With that thought, Su Zelin puffed out his chest and confidently walked in.
The parents remained in the first-floor living room.
They wouldn't sleep until this matter was understood tonight.
Su Jianjun smoked silently, while Zhao Lixia didn't look any better.
