Chapter 21 - Soul Torture

Yan Shuo declined the invitation to take a bath together, and when Shen Ze went to wash by himself, he quietly sent a help message to the off-site tutor.

Yan Shuo: "Brother Jin Jin, call Brother Jin."

In fact, he rarely went to Li Jin privately. After all, they wasn't close, and he doesn't really like his teammates.

He can’t say that he don’t look up to it. It’s more uncomfortable. For example, he thinks Fu Xinyan talks too much, Shen Ze talks too little, Qi Haoyu is too naive, Li Jin walks a tightrope for love every day, wandering among the flowers, sooner or later he will be exposed...

But in the recent period, Yan Shuo suddenly realized that his perception of several teammates seems to be wrong at all.

Fu Xinyan was replaced by him in the C position, and he didn't even fall out with him or find fault with him. It turned out that this person didn't want to be crazy and made a neurological blog post on Weibo.

And Shen Ze is not a person with few words. He is not so cold-blooded. It's just that he didn't interact with him before, and he clearly broke up a set of layers. From this point of view, the song that Shen Ze wrote himself is unified.

Qi Haoyu is really naive, after all, he is young, but very enthusiastic and funny.

Li Jin is not the kind of scumbag who deliberately coaxes ignorant girls into what he thinks. All men loves women. He probably can’t be considered scumbag, but the attitude towards feelings is different.

Yan Shuo re-examined his teammates for an unprecedented time. After putting aside the inherent prejudice, everyone is actually pretty good.

While he thought about it, his WeChat shook, and Li Jin finally returned a message to him——

"Yes, what's wrong, is there something?"

Yan Shuo was a little embarrassed: "It's the last time..."

Li Jin: "I knew it, let's talk, what happened afterwards?"

Yan Shuo went straight to the topic: "Didn’t you say that she ignored me last time? I don’t know what she thinks. Not long after, she suddenly came to me and said that she was sexually interested in me, but she didn’t talk about love. It's... that kind of relationship."

Li Jin: "I understand."

Li Jin: "You promised her?"

Yan Shuo: "...Hmm."

Yan Shuo: "I'm a little confused."

Li Jin: "Are you stupid or half-pushed?"

Yan Shuo: *emoji cold sweat*

High-end players are so sharp in asking questions, Yan Shuo feels that the conversation between himself and Li Jin is so stubborn that there is no more scum left.

Besides, Shen Ze is a girl in his narration. He is completely dominated by a girl. Whether he is stupid or half pushed, he is very embarrassed.

Yan Shuo didn't know how to reply.

Li Jin didn't speak either. They were silent for a while, and finally Li Jin spoke first--

Li Jin: "Brother."

Yan Shuo: "Huh?"

Li Jin: "Actually you didn't tell the truth, she's not a woman, right?"

Li Jin: "Let me guess."

Li Jin: "Shen Ze?"

Yan Shuo: "..."

Yan Shuo: "!!!"

Does this all work? It's scary.

Yan Shuo got stuck in his throat, and it took him a long time to get rid of it, but he didn't immediately admit it.

Yan Shuo: "Why would you guess him?"

Li Jin: "It's very simple. You've been recording a show recently, haven't you been out with him?"

Li Jin: "From what I know about you, you are very dedicated and have been serious about being a perfect idol. You will not sneak out to date a woman at the risk of being photographed like me. Then who is this person? When will you see them? Unless she is a member of the show crew, you have the conditions to meet frequently."

Yan Shuo: "..."

Is he Detective Conan?

Li Jin also said: "But there are very few eligible women in the program group. I counted them. The only beauty you might see is Mi Ling, but she has been in contact with me recently and is unlikely to be with you. There is such a deep entanglement."

Li Jin: "Change the idea of solving the problem. If you find it from a man, this is a sub-question."

Yan Shuo: "..."

Yan Shuo raised his hand and surrendered: "I was wrong, I didn't deliberately conceal it from you."

Li Jin: "It's okay, it's understandable."

After sending this sentence, the two paused again.

Yan Shuo felt a trace of embarrassment, as if he had come out publicly in front of his teammates.

Li Jin might be thinking about the wording--if Qi Haoyu was on the opposite side, it is estimated that a screen full of question marks and exclamation points would have been sent, and Jin-Ge is indeed Jin-Ge.

Yan Shuo thought, he know it anyway, it's better to just say it.

So he briefly summarized the recent events between himself and Shen Ze, from QQ online dating, being forced to open a business, misunderstanding each other's crush on him, to getting drunk and starting a contractual relationship... He omitted the indescribable parts and recounted it from the beginning.

Yan Shuo said: "I don't want to be curious, but I'm really curious about it QAQ."

He followed Qi Haoyu’s expression and said to Li Jin: "I suspect he is schizophrenic, or he is playing tricks on me. Isn’t his behavior weird, brother Jin? A straight guy would really be willing to help release each other with another straight guy ?"

Li Jin: "What do you think?"

Yan Shuo: "Huh?"

Li Jin: "As a straight man, are you willing to help release each other with him?"

Li Jin sent a piece of [看戏.jpg].

Yan Shuo: "..."

Yan Shuo defended himself: "From my point of view, I think it's nothing."

Li Jin: "Well, he may think it's nothing too."

Yan Shuo: "...so?"

Yan Shuo: "I don't need to worry anymore, right, don't worry so much. He is indeed a straight man and doesn't like me?"

After sending this sentence, Li Jin paused for a while before replying: "Yanyan, you should think about what you want to do before asking a question. What do you want to do after knowing the answer? Will there be a better solution?"

Yan Shuo couldn't answer.

Li Jin said: "For some questions, don't ask the bottom of it until you have no clear plans."

Li Jin: "Otherwise you can't deal with the truth, it will be more difficult."

Li Jin: "Let's go with the flow."

Yan Shuo: "..."

After another emotion class, when Shen Ze came out of the shower, Yan Shuo was still staring at WeChat in a daze.

He suddenly discovered that not only did he have a bias in his perception of his teammates, he also had a bias in his perception of himself, he was not that smart, not that high EQ, and simply failed in interpersonal communication.

He has always felt that their team is so plastic because their teammates are more weird. It turns out that his own problem is quite big.

"Who are you chatting with, so devoted?"

Shen Ze walked over in a bathrobe, his hair not dry, still dripping.

Yan Shuo looked up and met Shen Ze inquiring eyes.

"No, something happened just now. You finished bathing? I'm going to bathe." Yan Shuo put down the phone and got out of bed.

He bathe slowly, carefully pondering what Li Jin said just now in the bathroom.

Li Jin is reminding him that it is easy to end up badly if he asks the bottom line, but he is uneasy and can't help it if he doesn't figure it out.

After all, Taoism is too shallow.

Yan Shuo slowly finished washing, and decided that he couldn't bear it, so he had a good chat with Shen Ze, so as not to panic.

He walked out of the bathroom, pulled a chair by the bed and sat down. In the past, this was Shen Ze’s seat. He always lay on the bed, and Shen Ze sat on the chair to talk to him.

As a result, as soon as he sat down, Shen Ze suddenly said, "Why are you sitting so far?"

"..."

Yan Shuo was brewing an opening remark, but was interrupted suddenly, and suddenly forgot what he was going to say. He stuck: "Is it far?"

"Far." Shen Ze said, "What time is it, why don't you go to bed?"

"I'm not sleepy yet."

Yan Shuo pulled the chair closer, and said roundly, "Brother Ze, have you ever liked someone?"

"No, what happened?"

Yan Shuo nodded: "So you don't know what it's like to like someone, right?"

"Why don't you know?" Shen Ze disagreed, "I haven't eaten pork before, haven't I seen a pig run? How do you think my love song is written?"

"..."

Can't refute.

Shen Ze leaned against the head of the bed and glanced at him sideways: "Do you have something to say?"

"……Correct."

Yan Shuo said frankly, "But I don't want to say it anymore, you won't answer me well if I say it."

He really doesn't know how to say it. If he asks him directly if you like me, Shen Ze will definitely say no. In fact, he didn't believe that Shen Ze like him, but if he wanted to talk more deeply and more seriously, Shen would probably not chat with him either.

From this point of view, even as an ordinary friend, Shen Ze is obviously not a person who is easy to make friends with others.

Maybe he should listen to Li Jin's suggestion, don't inquire so much, just let the flow take place, and be careful to lead himself in the ditch.

Unexpectedly, when he said that he didn't want to say anything anymore, Shen Ze seemed to be a little concerned.

"What do you want to say? Say it, let me answer you well." Shen gestured to the empty place beside him, "Speak here."
