Yushu's Brother
"Oops, I forgot to mention that I'm close to breaking through again. It's just a matter of time until I find the chance to step into the late phase of the golden class," Lingshan said faintly. "If you are still planning to hit on me, you have to quicken your pace now. Of course, you can always choose to give up because I don't have any feelings towards you."
Yutian almost threw his phone after hearing Lingshan's provocation! The late phase of the golden class? Lingshan was this powerful? There was such a miracle in House Song?
Yutian sucked in a breath of cold air.
If Lingshan could reach the late phase of the golden class at her age, House Song's status would surely skyrocket and Lingshan's marriage would be the center of attention in Songshan. It would be a matter of utmost importance.Elder Song might even find Lingsan an outstanding partner for the arranged marriage! Perhaps, House Yu would also make a move after learning that.
"Alright, I'll give my best!" Yutian felt that Lingsan had torn a hole in his heart. He felt hopeless and desperate, but he couldn't do anything about it since the gap wasn't even considered close. Their difference in power was massive!
"I got to get back to work, bye." Lingshan didn't intend to continue the conversation and ended the call. She was not interested in Yutian which was why she said that she was about to breakthrough soon. In fact, she had just reached the peak middle phase, but there was still a distance before reaching the breakthrough.
She wanted Yutian to give up completely. She hated his character. Lingshan was strong but she wanted someone stronger to outpower her, only then she could be dominated or else she wouldn't feel right.
After the rejection, Yutian only thought about his old friends, the Songshan Big Four. They weren't always in Songshan city so it's been a long time since their last hang out.
Jianwen and Taizao had contacted him before; they wanted to invite him to a dinner for his return but Yutian put them to hold because he had to ask Lingshan first before making other decisions. She was his priority after all.
Looking back at the title, the Songshan Big Four, Yutian couldn't help but laugh. He found the title to be a total joke. They were just a few rich young masters, who used their family background to do things their way, it wasn't something to be proud of.Since he had chosen to walk down another path, he was destined to be separated from the Jianwen and the rest. Although they were called childhood playmates, they weren't as close as before anymore. The excitement of messing around and drinking had vanished.
Yutian had grown matured compared to the old days. He wanted Lingshan to think of him as a man, so he chose this path. It was hard in the beginning but he knew that his decision was right. This path was what made the Yutian today.
By doing the things that he was doing now, he could be called a man of indomitable spirit. The Songshan Big Four was just a joke. It sounded cool but what had he done during that period? What was the point of that? He didn't build his reputation himself, and even if he did have a reputation, it was probably some bad one!
The distance between Yutian and Lingsan was getting larger and larger. Yutian forced a smile on his face. He knew Lingshan very well. No ordinary man could "tame" her, neither could they win her in a battle! Even if her family forced Lingshan to him, he was pretty sure that he wouldn't be able to tame her, either.
His phone rang.
Yutian looked at the incoming call, and it was from Jianwen. He couldn't believe Jianwen's persistence. He had rejected Jianwen about going to the reunion dinner yesterday, but here he was calling him, again. Of course, he knew what Jianwen's real intentions were!
Jianwen invited Yutian to the dinner, and if Yutian went then he would naturally bring his sister, Yushu along. If Yushu came, she would drag Mengyao with her. How could Jianwen let this golden opportunity slip away? As Mengyao's admirer, he would do anything.
Yutian was just a bridge for Jianwen to hit on Mengyao. He knew that very well. After being a part of such a long time, they weren't as close as before. In fact, both of them were from different worlds now.
"Hey, Two." Yutian picked up the call. He still called Jianwen "Two" because he ranked number two among the Songshan Big Four.
"Tian bro, are you free? Have you settled your problem? Can you join us for dinner in the Starlight hotel?" Jianwen smiled. Yutian rejected him yesterday because he was thought that he wouldn't have time for them, due to his tight schedule.
"Haha, sure, let's make it tomorrow night. Get in touch!", Yutian replied. Since he wouldn't be meeting Lingshan, he had no reasons to reject their invitation, did he?
"Awesome, see ya!", Jianwen was overjoyed. If Yutian was joining, then Yushu would drag Mengyao along with her, right?
His chance had arrived! He could officially invite Mengyao to dinner now.
"How's it bro? Did he agree?" Taizao was standing beside, impatient.
"Yup, it's done, all we have to do now is visit Mengyao and invite her to dinner tomorrow!" Jianwen said exuberantly.
"And bro, why don't you confess to Mengyao, this time! This is a golden opportunity." Taizao continued: "It doesn't come all the time, y' know!"
"You are right. Do you have any ideas? If I were to confess to her all of a sudden, I'm afraid it would turn out hideous….", Jianwen frowned. "But Mengyao has been cold towards me recently. She doesn't talk to me passionately like she used to in the theme park! Could it be that I'm not giving enough effort? Should I get her a flower and confess my feelings to her tomorrow?"
"Probably! But just forget about the flowers, you can't just force her to decide, can you? You have to be genuine and put some effort into it, but you shouldn't be too forceful or too passionate or else she might not know what to do! Usually, girls love it when people to pay attention to them. They want people to hit on them, but at the same time, they want freedom as well. You need to give them some space to breathe! You can't just throw everything out all at once. They enjoy the process of being hit on and being the center of attention. Kneeling down and those stupid confession acts should be the last thing you want to do to her! Too much pressure will only scare her away, and she will immediately turn you down if she doesn't have any feelings for you. Plus, even if she does have a little, she can't just accept your love on the spot, can she?"
"Absolutely!" Jianwen found that Taizao's explanation was reasonable. He was clueless about how Mengyao sees him, but even if Mengyao had feelings for him, he was certain that they weren't strong.
