Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chapter 1025 Northern Frontier 22

"I thought you'd challenge me to a fight first." Jing Lei smiled and pulled Zi Su to sit down on the blanket that Liu Yun had laid out.

He sat down on the grass, opened a bottle of wine, and took a sip.

"What's the point of fighting? It's not like whoever wins will be the one Zisu likes." Liu Yun glanced at him.

Feeling frustrated and depressed, he picked up the bottle and started drinking.

Zisu felt like laughing.

This guy was clearly in a terrible mood, but what he said actually made some sense.

However, she couldn't smile at this moment. She turned her head to look at Jing Lei sitting next to her, wondering what Jing Lei wanted to talk about since he had agreed to chat with her.

She was actually thinking about some things all along.

It was what Chu Yueli had told her a few days earlier.

For Jing Lei, was marrying her something he had been looking forward to for a long time, or was it just a matter of course?

"Are you willing to talk to him?" she asked.

Liu Yun, left aside, felt somewhat aggrieved.

She's been ignoring him lately.

Avoiding him is like avoiding a plague.

"Why wouldn't we be willing? We're all brothers. No matter what, we'll be facing each other every day in the future. We can't just stop being brothers."

So, whatever the problem is, let's resolve it properly; leaving it unresolved is pointless.

"Speak," Jing Lei glanced at Liu Yun, "What do you want to say?"

"I know Zisu is avoiding me because she's afraid I'll bother her and hurt her feelings."

Liu Yun has been thinking a lot lately, and many things seem to be becoming clearer the more she thinks about them.

"But she may not really like you that much. Since the three of us are here today, Zisu, why don't you think carefully about whether you really want to marry Jinglei, or just because Jinglei proposed to you before I did?"

Zisu looked at him with a complicated expression.

Jing Lei was looking at Zi Su, as if he was also waiting for her answer.

A flicker of something crossed Zisu's eyes, but she ultimately lowered them and said, "What difference does it make? It's a done deal, and I don't like wasting time and energy overthinking."

"Of course there's a difference. Are you really happy with Jing Lei? What about with me? You'd be happier with me, wouldn't you?"

"Who gave you that confidence?" Jing Lei sneered coldly.

"Do you know what she likes? What she likes to eat? What color clothes she likes? What she likes to play? What books she likes to read? Where she wants to go? What kind of food she wants to research?"

Liu Yun glared at him: "What do you know? How much do you really know about her?"

Jing Lei looked at Zi Su with some guilt.

The answer is self-evident.

He truly knew very little about perilla.

We've known each other for years, yet we haven't noticed these little details in our lives at all.

Zisu said nonchalantly, "He's so busy every day, where would he find the time and energy to pay attention to these things? Do you think everyone is like you, with nothing better to do?"

Liu Yun snorted, unwilling to give up, and said, "Now that you're obsessed with marrying him, of course you'll speak up for him."

"I……"

"Don't say it yet. You don't even know if you like him or if you're just trying to be responsible by implying that you like him. Zisu, I know your temper better than anyone. You're just afraid that if you suddenly decide not to marry him now, it will hurt him and make him lose face."

Liu Yun wasn't being a chauvinist; he just really understood Zi Su's personality.

He looked at Jing Lei and asked again, "Tell me again, when is Zi Su's birthday? What wish did she make on her last birthday?"
