Chapter 712: Her Disappointment in Him
d seriously.Tong Yimò glanced at Lian Huasheng, then unconsciously looked at Leng Yeshen.Leng Ye Chen slightly frowned, a trace of indifference flitted across his handsome face, indicating that he did...Lian Xing'er stiffly raised her hand and shook his, then introduced herself: “My name is Lian Xing'er.”
"Then let's get in the car." He Zechuan pursed his lips into a faint smile, proactively walked to the passenger seat, and opened the door for Lian Xing'er.
Lian Xing'er followed him, getting into the passenger seat. She always felt something was off about this.
Hezechuan closed the car door for Lianxing'er and turned to get into his driver's seat.
"Is there a particular place you'd like to eat" He Zechuan asked politely.
Lián Xīng'ěr shook her head slightly.
"Then I'll take you to the restaurant I chose" He continued as he started the car.
Lián Xīng'er nodded slightly.
This feeling was so strange that she didn't know what to say.
Master didn't seem like the Master she had in her mind, nor the one she felt he was. Instead, he resembled a stranger they were meeting for the first time.
The car was already moving. Lian Xing watched out the window and suddenly thought of something. She turned her head to look at He Zechuan and asked, “I’m not hungry yet. Why don’t we go to the internet cafe and play a few games first”
Gazing at the slight upturn of He Zechuan's mouth, it was evident that he readily agreed. It seemed this young lady had started to suspect him.
After arriving at the internet cafe, Lian Xing'er directly took a seat at a computer desk in the lobby. He Zechuan paid for the internet fee and sat down beside Lian Xing'er.
Before Lian Xing'er even logged into the game, she looked at He Zechuan.
He Zechuan calmly typed "Yu Han Yu Li" into the login box, followed by his password, and successfully logged in.
Lian Xing'er looked at him for a moment, then quickly averted her gaze.
After playing a round of double-player with him, she finally let down her guard and laughed, "Let's go eat! I'm hungry again."
"Good." He Zechuan hooked his lips, hiding all his thoughts behind a smile.
On the top floor of a skyscraper, in an upscale restaurant, couples dine.
Most men were in suits, and most women were made up delicately. Each of them seemed to be a white-collar professional or above.
He Zechuan proactively pulled a chair open for Lian Xing'er, and after she was seated, he sat down in the chair opposite her.
After placing the order, Lian Xing inadvertently looked towards the triangular piano in the center of the restaurant's flowerbed. He Zechuan smiled knowingly and asked, "Would you like to hear me play the piano"
"You will" Xing'er exclaimed in surprise.
He nodded slightly, rose to his feet and walked toward the triangular grand piano.
Lian Xing'er lazily propped her chin with one hand, her gaze following He Zechuan as he left.
He sat gracefully before the grand piano, his silhouette swaying to the rhythm as the first note sounded.
He Zechuan played a graceful and elegant piece, the melody was flowing and long.
Lian Xing'er's eyes were fixed on this man, but she just couldn't feel anything for him.
There was no trace of the excitement and flutter I felt when I saw him at the stadium that day.
After finishing his performance, sparse applause broke out in the restaurant.
Even Xing'er clapped her hands.
The waiter brought the dishes over, and He Zechuan also got up from in front of the triangular piano and returned to his seat.
"You play really well," Lian Xing'er praised.
He Zechuan smiled slightly: "Thank you for the compliment."
After a pause, He Zechuan continued, "Let's go watch a movie together later."
"No." Lian Xing'er refused outright.
He froze for a moment, then calmly countered, "Don't like it Then I'll accompany you to go shopping"
"No, I still have to go to self-study at night," Lian Xing'er explained.
Heze Chuan didn't say anything more.
Compared to being so talkative in the game, when facing each other in person, Xing'er inexplicably felt a bit more awkward towards this "master".
During the meal, even Xing'er didn't have any topics to bring up proactively. And He Zechuan just asked a question, she answered, and then there was no follow-up.
Even back then, she had solemnly promised Ming Sihan that she would poach her master away. Now, seeing her master in person, she didn't have a single thought about it.
Their dinner together passed in an atmosphere that was extremely strange, with fits and starts of conversation. Even this odd atmosphere persisted until he saw her back at school.
As soon as they reached the school gate, He Zechuan stopped the car. Before Lian Xing'er could even unbuckle her seatbelt, he reached out and grabbed her wrist, startling her.
Heze Chuan realized his faux pas and quickly withdrew his hand, saying, "I'm sorry."
Lian Xing'er smiled awkwardly: "It's okay."
"Are you disappointed in me" He Zechuan suddenly asked.
Lian Xing'er blinked her eyes, looking at He Zechuan with a bewildered expression.
He Zechuan chuckled softly: "Maybe I overthought it."
"Then I'll head back to the dorm." Lian Xing'er smiled.
He Zechuan nodded.
After Lian Xing'er got out of the car, she turned back to He Zechuan who was sitting in the car and said, "Thank you."
He Zechuan only smiled slightly, then drove away.
Li Xing'er stood still, watching He Zechuan's car drive into the middle of the road and quickly disappear below the horizon. Only then did she come back to her senses and walk back into the school gate.
When she walked alone on the school path, that feeling of being watched, that terror, crept up on her again.
