Chapter 83
“Oh,” Qilu says . “Our fathers may be very familiar with each other, but I don’t recall us being like them . So, for you to ask me a question, why should I listen?”
An Chenchuan has always been aware of Han Qilu’s bad temper, so his cynicism doesn’t make him angry . Instead, he finds it embarrassing .
He chooses his words carefully . “It is about An Chuxia . ”
Upon hearing her name . Han Qilu’s face changes . The lines on his face become more defined . “I don’t quite understand why you think she is a topic for you to ask . ”
An Chenchuan shakes his head and repeats his question nicely . “I do not expect you to answer me, but I just want to ask . Master Han Qilu, is your relationship with An Chuxia truly just an ordinary, run-of-the-mill kind of relationship?”
“Ordinary relationship?” Han Qilu cocks his head, shooting him a puzzled look .
An Chenchuan unconsciously clenches his fist . “I mean, do you like An Chuxia?” With great determination, he finally asks the question .
Han Qilu chuckles, but his smile doesn’t radiate warmth . His face goes stoic . Han Qilu coldly replies, “Hasn’t anyone told you, it is rude to ask such a question?”
He certainly knows it is very rude, but if he doesn’t outright ask about it, he won’t be able to sleep .
“Please answer me!” He stubbornness surprises him . His usual demeanor would’ve shrugged off the unanswered question .
Han Qilu is silent for a moment . Then, he takes a few steps forward . He stands in front of An Chenchuan . Although they have the same height, An Chenchuan is far less of a deterrent compared to Qilu .
“You like An Chuxia?” Chenchuan doesn’t answer . In the depth of Qilu’s eyes, Chenchuan is aware of the coldness that lays .
Chenchuan faces Qilu and replies matter-of-factly . “Yes, I like her!”
Han Qilu continues to prod . “Like her… for what reason? Can you remember her favorite place? She isn’t beautiful, and she doesn’t have a great figure . She is stubborn . She has brains, but is a fool . There is no reason for anyone to like her . ”
Chenchuan raises his head slightly and looks at Han Qilu . “I like a person despite their shortcomings!”
“I was asking you what you liked!” he asks, raising his volume again .
Silent for a moment, Chenchuan replies, “Liking a person is not a reason?”
As he responds, Qilu counters, “That response is too broad . Having no reason to like a person only shows you do NOT like her!”
“No! I like her!” An Chenchuan argues firmly .
Han Qilu stares at An Chenchuan for a while before sneering, “Whatever . ”
Then, he turns and walks out .
“Wait a minute!” An Chenchuan walks up and stops him . “Starting tomorrow, I will pursue her!”
“Oh?” Han Qilu shows no emotion . “Do not forget, you are nothing but her brother . ”
He takes a deep breath . An Chenchuan puffs his chest and says, “How’s that possible? I like her . Tomorrow, I will make every attempt for her to like me . ”
