She is the Side Character! — Watch Her Change her fate!-Chapter 198: The Rich Kid’s Game? I’m Not Playing Along Anymore (Part 36)
Han Fangli really didn’t expect Li Chen and Song Mo to get their marriage certificate so quickly. He was somewhat stunned after hearing the news.
He sat on a small bench with mushroom soup and fried mushrooms, with Cheng Yuqing beside him.
Cheng Yuqing slowly drank the mushroom soup, then suddenly looked up and saw his lost expression. She rarely smiled and asked, "Can’t accept this result? Did you really fall for her?"
"Probably, yes." Han Fangli said, his gaze still on the busy Ah Chen and Song Mo, admitting that the two of them seemed well-matched.
Neither of them was really that bad.
Compared to the people observed in the observation diary, what made Li Chen and Song Mo bad people?
Yes, he had fallen for her.
He fell for Li Chen, who walked out of a high-end clothing store with a thousand yuan and a phone. It happened then, and grew even stronger later. If he hadn’t fallen for her, he wouldn’t have kept paying attention to her here.
He thought they wouldn’t last long, but they got their marriage certificate, making him feel like a clown.
As for hoping they would split? That would make him seem even more like a clown.
Actually, who can guarantee that being together means being together for a lifetime? Whether they split or not is normal and shouldn’t be ridiculed.
He hoped they’d split, just wanting to take advantage of the situation.
He liked to think he was classy, wouldn’t interfere with others’ relationships. In reality, he was just a dark, hidden mouse waiting for an opportunity.
"So what if you fall for her?" he mocked, "They’ve already got their marriage certificate."
Cheng Yuqing said, "Without the marriage certificate, them not being together doesn’t mean you and Li Chen would have a future either."
"If she really chose to be with you, it wouldn’t last long either. Did you ever think about marrying her?"
Han Fangli was silent for a moment.
"Looks like I was right. You’ve fallen for her, but you’re still rational. You always weigh the pros and cons in your heart. In your heart, you’ve never thought she deserved to marry you." Cheng Yuqing ate a piece of fried mushroom, glancing at the busy couple, "I think as long as Li Chen doesn’t leave, Song Mo will never leave her; he seems to live for her."
That might sound exaggerated; to many, such actions might seem crazy, too self-losing, but for Song Mo, it probably didn’t matter. After being abandoned by many, only Li Chen stayed by his side, so a bit of madness seemed quite normal.
If it were someone else, they might have gone crazy long ago.
Han Fangli looked and saw that Song Mo’s whole heart and eyes were filled with Li Chen’s presence.
Whenever he wasn’t busy, all his attention was on her.
And Li Chen could always notice his movements; the communication between their eyes was always so sweet, making him feel choked up.
He indeed had fallen for her.
Cheng Yuqing was right too, he had fallen for her, but he remained rational. Even now, he never thought about marrying her.
"In the circle of rich and second-generation heirs, it’s not that they never fall genuinely in love; in fact, there are quite a few who marry just because they like each other, regardless of family or background." Cheng Yuqing said, "But you can’t do it."
"You’re not that kind of person."
"You don’t see the need, why take the risk and pressure?"
"So, her not choosing you is the right decision."
"Ordinary people have their own ordinary happiness, as long as she feels good, it’s good. Everybody has worries, it just depends on what kind of worry."
"Look at Lin Jiajia, she has a lot of worries these days too. If she doesn’t listen to her family, she won’t starve but giving up the life of a pampered lady would be hard." Cheng Yuqing took a deep breath, "We used to think it would be hard for Li Chen to leave this circle and return to ordinary life because we couldn’t do it ourselves."
"But she did it." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
No one knew when it started, but her bit of pride and aloofness shattered to pieces.
"You’re right." After a long while, Han Fangli said, "Let’s go have a drink later."
Cheng Yuqing refused: "Forget it, maybe another day, I have a date tomorrow."
"Did your family arrange a blind date?" Han Fangli asked in surprise.
"Not really, they didn’t arrange it." Cheng Yuqing said, "I met someone on my own, someone pursuing me. Through interaction and comments from others, I think they’re not bad, planning to try it out. Eventually, my family will urge me, better than rushing to find someone; besides, I’m not a celibate, I want a family too."
"I envy them." Cheng Yuqing looked at Ah Chen and Song Mo, "No wonder people like coming here, besides the food being good, it also lifts your spirits; they represent genuine affection, don’t you think? In this world, genuine affection exists, whether it’s long-lasting or short-lived, genuine affection is real."
"It shouldn’t be ridiculed just because it’s short-lived, right?" she smiled gently, "I’m not asking for a long-lasting one, just suddenly want to experience it, taste what it feels like, and at least don’t regret life. It’s just that logical people like us always know when to step back."
After Cheng Yuqing left, Han Fangli was still sitting on the bench, pondering.
Cheng Yuqing seemed to be referring to the time when Li Chen liked Xiao Su? Back then, Li Chen really liked Xiao Su, everyone could see it, but no one thought highly of it, only laughed inwardly.
After so many things happened, especially when Wei Hui was abandoned, they finally understood how rare genuine affection was.
"Mr. Han, we’re closing up." Ah Chen reminded.
She had overheard their conversation, her ears were sharp, it was hard not to hear.
Unexpectedly, they had quite a lot of feelings to share.
"Sorry." Han Fangli stood up, "Didn’t mean to hold you up."
He walked to the side but didn’t leave.
As they were about to leave, he suddenly said, "Then I wish you a long-lasting relationship."
This was probably his most generous and sincere blessing in his life, he mocked in his heart.
"Thank you, Mr. Han, we will." Ah Chen responded with a smile.
Even Song Mo, who rarely showed good manners towards him, said, "Thank you, Ah Chen and I will be like this forever."
Han Fangli wanted to say something, but didn’t.
He wanted to say, a lifetime is too long, who can predict what will happen?
But that seemed a bit off-putting, and there was no need to say so much.
A lifetime is too long and unpredictable; what if they really stayed happy forever?
Better not to say those disturbing words.
Without waiting for them to leave, he left first.
Their sweet demeanor made his teeth ache.
Yes, it was jealousy. He was jealous, a rarely experienced emotion, feeling sour inside, very unpleasant.
Returning to the car, he called Xiao Su: "Li Chen and Song Mo got their marriage certificate, when will you get engaged?"
There was a silence on the other end, after about a minute, Xiao Su’s voice came through: "Still discussing, I’ll let you know when it happens."
"How do you feel hearing that Li Chen got her marriage certificate?"
