Chapter 601: 173: Shangguan Dehui’s honesty, extremely defensive!_1
Calm.
Ni Yang seemed too calm to him. freēwēbnovel.com
Shangguan Dehui even had the illusion that Ni Yang already knew what he was going to say.
Although the kid was only eighteen years old, she gave Shangguan Dehui an inexplicable sense of oppression, the kind of feeling a guilt-ridden student has when seeing their teacher, but he was supposed to be that teacher.
Shangguan Dehui picked up his cup and took a sip of tea, trying hard to calm himself down as he carefully chose his words in his mind.
Ni Yang didn’t rush either, gently stirring the coffee in her cup, not saying anything before Shangguan Dehui spoke.
Although the atmosphere was quiet, it was not awkward.
It wasn’t until all the dishes were served that Shangguan Dehui finally spoke, “Yangyang.”
“Yes, go ahead.” Ni Yang put down the silver spoon in her hand and looked up at Shangguan Dehui.
Looking directly into the other person’s eyes when speaking shows basic respect.
Since Shangguan Dehui had something important to tell her, she naturally had to show the respect a junior should have.
“Yangyang, your mom and I actually met more than twenty years ago when I was a young laborer at a logging farm…” Shangguan Dehui calmly told Ni Yang about his past with Ni Cuihua, of course, omitting the part where they ‘fooled around’.
“Later, I went to many places looking for her. Maybe it was fate that we didn’t end up together. After a fleeting glimpse, I never saw her again.”
Gradually, Shangguan Dehui was no longer nervous.
Throughout the process, Ni Yang didn’t show any particular emotions. She was always calm and quiet, like a listener.
No wonder Ni Cuihua and Shangguan Dehui got along so well yesterday.
So it turns out that they knew each other years ago.
Fate really is strange.
Shangguan Dehui continued:
“My name is Shangguan Dehui. I am 43 years old and currently teaching at Qinghua University. My mother still lives, I have two children, a set of twins, a boy and a girl. My wife died in childbirth years ago. I am now single and I would like to pursue your mother, Ni Cuihua!”
That’s right.
He wanted to pursue Ni Cuihua.
He didn’t want to leave any regrets from the youthful years that had passed more than twenty years ago.
