Chapter 58: Chapter 56 The First Battle, No Victor Determined_2

Ah, oh, uh, mmm…

Chen Nuanhan was indeed confused, her brain a tangled mess, utterly unable to sort things out.

Logically speaking, everything Su Huai said made perfect sense, fit together seamlessly, and was consistent, right?!

That analogy about “the moon in the sky” and “fishing in the lake” genuinely moved her, as if she truly saw a young man struggling against his background, fighting against fate, single-minded in his ambitions.

And Su Huai's maturity greatly enhanced the persuasiveness of his words.

Changing majors, becoming the class president, discovering the sour plum drink business opportunity… all these things matched his explanation perfectly.

But… yet…

Everything Su Huai talked about was completely contrary to her own feelings.

Thus, at a certain moment, Chen Nuanhan completely gave up thinking and just stared fixedly at Su Huai's profile, focusing on sensing his emotions.

After a few seconds, she clenched her teeth and spat out two words.

“Liar!”

Su Huai: Eh?!⊙o⊙

Gou Huai was taken aback, not knowing where he had slipped up, so he subconsciously furrowed his brow.

Then suddenly, Chen Nuanhan took another half step forward, bringing their distance to a mere 10 centimeters, and asked with a snicker, “Do you dare to turn your head, look me in the eye, and repeat that load of nonsense?”

I definitely wouldn't dare!

Gou Huai truly chickened out from the bottom of his heart and deeply realized that an EQ and IQ of 78 were not invincible, and that experiences from a former life were not always absolutely effective.

When facing an unreasonable person, it seemed that his skills were still somewhat lacking…

Fortunately… I've got a thick skin!

So Gou Huai held his breath, turned his head and looked into her eyes with determination, frowning as he countered, “Have you had enough yet?”

As long as I land the first punch, you can only fight a losing battle with me!

The swift changes in Su Huai didn't escape Chen Nuanhan's notice, so she also deeply realized that the current Su Huai was completely different.

Different from the one in her memories, from what her classmates described, and from what everyone else saw from the outside.

Such emotional stability, this core control ability, was simply outrageous among 19-year-old males.

She might not understand those concepts, but she could feel them clearly enough.

Both of their gazes met again, cautiously assessing each other, with the same realization dawning within them — their official and profound contact had only truly begun at that moment.

“Ha!”

Chen Nuanhan suddenly let out a light laugh, a flash of brightness sparkling in her eyes, and Su Huai guessed it probably meant “interesting.”

The next second, her expression and voice both turned cold.

“As expected, you've been doing it on purpose all along. What's this called? Push-pull, right?”

Hisss…

That's so painfully awkward…

Su Huai finally understood why Chen Nuanhan had a Pulling score of 40 from the start of school; she had never gotten close to boys in high school, so she never had the chance to practice.

So, it must be explained by talent.

Perhaps some special gift in the realm of emotional intelligence, able to accurately read and understand people while also remaining stable himself.

Without relying on experience, purely on instinct?

That's just too unreasonable…

Luckily, the Su Huai of today had also evolved and wasn't a bit flustered.

“Think whatever you like, I won't explain it a second time,” he declared.

Classic.

Take the road of the tea lady, let them crawl!

Chen Nuanhan was clearly getting worked up, her breathing quick and fiery sparks beginning to flicker in her eyes.

But she didn't lose her temper, and she didn't even speak again, just stubbornly and with a hint of contemplation stared at Su Huai.

Gou Huai felt a sinking in his heart.

He didn't feel happy; instead, he was a bit emo.

Indeed, when she was emotional, deep down she was still clear-headed.

Then a new question arose — how much of my memory of our interactions has been beautified by my brain?

How accurate is my understanding of her?

Su Huai tried hard to recall, and the newly-added intelligence indeed helped in digging up memories, so he quickly found what set Chen Nuanhan apart from ordinary girls.

Other girls once agitated, tend to hurt themselves easily.

Later, working at an MCN agency, Su Huai saw many female streamers who, due to emotional breakdowns, impulsively got tattoos, plastic surgery, slept with people, or engaged in excessive spending… Gou Huai thus freeloaded many lavish meals and much happiness.

But Chen Nuanhan had never truly harmed herself.

No physical harm, at most binge drinking, but she wouldn't get wasted.

No mental self-harm, either, because she'd always directly vent her annoyances with Gu Jiuyue to Su Huai, never bottling it up.

Following this line of thought deeper, many things that were previously incomprehensible suddenly made sense.

Like the fact that she insisted on competing with Gu Jiuyue, even though it meant losing badly.

But in reality, what had she lost?

Actually nothing at all.

That so-called precious time of her four college years, she was never going to spend it studying anyway.

Getting entangled with Chu Changkuo wasn't necessarily a mistake either.

Back then, Mr. Chu was already considered top-tier in the school with good family background, handsome looks, and promising future. If truly tamed, he would almost guarantee a blissful life.

An heir to a fortune who is well-trained and obedient isn't that the best match?

Unfortunately, the rapid growth of the Chu family's wealth also inflated Chu Changkuo's ego quickly, and in the end, Chen Nuanhan couldn't manage it.

But she didn't lose out either.

Being able to resist the temptation of a fortune worth billions, to see through Chu Changkuo from the inside out, and ultimately to keep to herself, the more she thought about it, the more impressive it became…
