Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend

Chen Mei'Er's question made Chen Mengying suddenly look at Liu Siyan too.

It's so strange, why is Siyan so caught up with this question?

"Why are you all looking at me?" Liu Siyan blushed furiously, clearly embarrassed that her little secret had been discovered.

"So, are you going to answer me or not?" Chen Mei'Er pressed on.

"You... fine, it's not a big deal, we're not kids anymore. If this is inevitable, can't I just know about it in advance?"

Admitting it, Liu Siyan set aside her reservations and boldly confessed in front of them.

"Hahaha..."

"Hehe..."

On one side, Chen Mei'Er laughed heartily, while on the other, Chen Mengying covered her mouth, giggling. Oh, the topics among women can be quite amusing.

"Stop laughing, are you going to talk or not..."

"Yes, yes... ahem, but you go first, no being jealous, alright?"

"If every single one makes me jealous, I'd be overwhelmed long ago. Go on, tell it..." Liu Siyan urged.

"Originally, I gave him plenty of chances, during his matches, at that hotel, you saw it too, right? Also, the apartment we rented near Mingyuan, didn't you notice something off that day as well? But this guy, he just wouldn't bite. Oh, don't doubt it when I say it, Xiaofan is really good at holding back."

"And then what?" Chen Mengying asked eagerly.

At this, the other two women looked at her simultaneously.

Her face suddenly turned red. Chen Mengying quickly lowered her head, murmuring softly, "I'm just curious about the story..."

"You little girl..." Chen Mei'Er pouted, tidying herself up before continuing.

Chen Mengying blushed, her heart racing exceptionally fast. To speak of this matter, perhaps it has to trace back to the night after high school graduation, at that hotel in H City.

"Later, some dangerous people entered the Capital City, aiming to kidnap me and extort my father into collaborating on illegal matters. It blew up quite a bit."

"You got kidnapped?" Liu Siyan asked with alarm.

"Yes, kidnapped. A woman taken by some criminals, even if she comes back alive, she won't be complete."

"Don't tell me you... no way, right?"

"Yes, if he hadn't arrived just in time that day, I'd have already taken my own life. I hate men, I feel disgusted with their proximity, but with Ye Xiaofan, I don't have that feeling. That day, at the very last moment, he appeared and took down those people. At that time, I was a mess, I was panicking, and when I saw him, I just clung to him tightly because I knew that with him, I was safe. It was also at that moment that I suddenly understood, I figured it out. Anyway, I'm a woman for life, and if he's the only one who can move me, then I have to choose him. So, I spoke up, I asked, and even threw myself at him very boldly..."

"No way? Are you saying that place was the criminals' den? Were you sure it was safe? And you just... oh my, and Xiaofan, he..."

"He certainly wouldn't give in easily, but I said one thing, and he fell quiet..."

"What did you say?" Liu Siyan asked anxiously.

"I just asked him, if you don't take this chance now, imagine if I marry another man someday, can you be content seeing someone else holding me? Won't it hurt? Hahaha, so in the end, I succeeded." Chen Mei'Er, though laughing heartily at the end, had a blush gradually spreading over her exquisite face.

"Unbelievable..." Liu Siyan thought to herself, knowing she'd never be able to say something like that.

"Siyan, don't say I didn't warn you, the stress Xiaofan faces is unimaginable to us. For him to actively make a move is almost impossible. Whenever he's with any of us, he feels pressured, far more than anyone else. Since he can't promise a lifetime together, he won't touch anything he can't see through. So, you need to work on it yourself. Taking the initiative from time to time isn't enough. Anyway, I went all-in, and at least, I won't regret it for life. Even if his final choice isn't me, I have no complaints."

This is Chen Mei'Er's love for Xiaofan. So clear, so thorough.

However, if Chen Mei'Er can do it, why can't Liu Siyan? No, perhaps the one who first decided was Chen Mengying, silently listening to the conversation from the sidelines.

"Oh dear, you still haven't gotten to the main point..." At this point, Liu Siyan exclaimed impatiently.

"The main point? What is it you're trying to find out?"

"It's... it's... you know, did it hurt?" Liu Siyan was unsure how to phrase it.

Upon hearing the question, Chen Mei'Er paused and then burst into laughter again.

"Don't laugh, hurry up and talk..."

"Hahaha, let me say, hahaha... honestly, at that time, whether it hurt or not didn't matter, it just got a little too intense, and it was awkward walking for a bit afterwards."

"How... how long?"

"Hmm? More than forty minutes, I think. Anyway, by then, my dad and his men had arrived and were downstairs. I had no choice but to brace myself and go downstairs." Chen Mei'Er continued with a red face.

"Pfft... you two sure were bold." Liu Siyan chuckled gently, took another sip of coffee, her gaze slightly distant, seemingly fantasizing about something.

"Hey, hey... what are you thinking? Are you fantasizing about your first time with him, where and under what circumstances?" Chen Mei'Er teased.

"Oh stop, what are you saying..."

"Ha, still pretending. Anyway, this is what happened between him and me."

"Yeah, it's getting late, let's go."

Finally, this conversation came to an end. At this point, Liu Siyan had figured it all out. She understood Chen Mei'Er's feelings for Xiaofan too. Ultimately, all that's left is to ask Xiaofan in person, how much pressure is he really under?

"Mengying, did you remember the conversation just now?"

In the car, on the way to take Mengying home for a meal.

"Huh? Remember what?"

"Mei'Er made it clear, we just need to be ourselves, and let Xiaofan make the final decision. You still have a chance."

"Siyan, you're talking nonsense, what's it got to do with me?"

"You like Xiaofan."

"I... compared to you all, at most, it's just liking. Nothing more. My biggest wish right now is to study well, find a job after graduation, and let my mom live peacefully." Chen Mengying said firmly.

Her expectations for Xiaofan could only be buried deep inside. Forever hidden, never to be spoken, never to be told. No one will ever know. Yeah, that's decided.
