Chapter 361 "Zhou Mochen, your standards are so high."
Luo Shaofeng knew how to read people's expressions, so he awkwardly said a few more words, temporarily abandoning his attempt to curry favor.
They were afraid that they would gain nothing and offend others instead...
It's better to take it slow.
Xu Su's hand was held tightly under the table, and she could clearly feel that the person next to her was somewhat angry.
Indeed, in Zhou Mochen's eyes, Xu Su was so badly injured last year, and he was already being magnanimous by letting Luo Shaofeng go so easily. He never expected that a year later he would still be bothered by this flea. How could he be happy about it? Yet he had to endure it...
The only person Zhou Mochen would be so wary of is Xu Su. No matter how unhappy he is, he has to endure it.
After dinner, it was already late. In the countryside, people are quite superstitious and believe that traveling at night with a baby makes them vulnerable to being struck by a monster. Both of Li Tingting's uncles tried their best to persuade Li Tingting's family to stay. They said that since they had nothing to do back home, they could stay for a few more days before leaving.
Li Tingting, holding the child, smiled and agreed.
They came for Xu Su and her boyfriend, so of course they couldn't just have a meal and leave; they had to at least make a good connection.
Xu Su understood this point, and when they were walking on the street that night, without Zhou Mochen asking, she directly said that she would be going back to Changshi the next day.
In her past life, she disliked the way Xu Weiping and his wife fawned over Zhou Mochen. After all, they were her parents, and she only felt ashamed at the time.
But now, facing Luo Shaofeng and Li Tingting like this, Xu Su didn't feel ashamed. She was just unhappy to see Zhou Mochen suppressing his temper in order to leave a good impression on his grandmother and uncle.
The college entrance exam scores will be released in a couple of days.
After she finishes filling out her college application, she should return to Beijing with Zhou Mochen.
Thinking of this, Xu Su shook Zhou Mochen's arm: "Huang Feng and Qian Jia will also be going to Beijing ahead of time. I've already talked to them, and they'll stay at my place, the house you gave me."
Zhou Mochen hummed in agreement, nodding without any objection: "You can make the decision."
Xu Su then said, "I want to move there too."
“That won’t do,” Zhou Mochen stopped and said very seriously, “Su Su, you have to live with me.”
"I'm still so young, I don't want to live with you so soon." Xu Su muttered coquettishly, "You should act like a couple when you're in a relationship, Zhou Mochen. Who moves in together right away?"
If it weren't for the incident with Xi Zirong, and her guilty conscience, she wouldn't have agreed to move out of school and live with him.
“No.” Zhou Mochen looked down at her and refused again: “Xu Su, you have to live with me. I can’t live without you.”
I can't live without you...
Before Xu Su could speak, she was hugged tightly around the waist. Zhou Mochen lowered his voice and coaxed her gently, "Sweetie, listen to me on this. We won't separate. I can't bear to go months without seeing you."
"We can meet anytime, I promise you, it won't be months before we see each other again..."
"I already said no, I need to see you every day!" Zhou Mochen interrupted coldly, "Xu Su, you're trying to find a way to leave me again, aren't you?"
"..." Xu Su took a deep breath, trying to suppress her anger. "So, your plan is that I have to live with you forever? I'm only nineteen years old. Just because I'm dating you doesn't mean I'm tied to you, right? I can't have any personal space of my own, not even to stay with my girlfriends?"
"Others' lives are just beginning after graduating from high school, while I can see the end from the beginning?"
Xu Su was very unhappy: "Besides, my request wasn't too unreasonable, was it? I just want to live with my best friend. I don't want to live with you so soon."
"Why don't you want to live with me?" Zhou Mochen was silent for a moment before asking, "Are you tired of living with me? Is that why you're so resistant?"
"I just want some private space," Xu Su said, unsure of what to say.
In both her past and present lives, she never truly experienced a free and unrestrained life after reaching adulthood.
Needless to say, in her previous life, she was targeted by Zhou Mochen from the first year of high school. Even Xi Zirong didn't know what methods he used to isolate her, and they never had any contact from beginning to end.
After Xi Zirong's incident in this life, she even lived with him a year earlier than in her previous life, without experiencing any freedom. She was only eighteen years old when she started living in a world of two.
Despite their good relationship, Xu Su also longed to live the life of an ordinary girl her age.
Zhou Mochen couldn't understand her thoughts at all.
In his view, the girl had grown tired of him after living together for a year. She was young, playful, and restless, and wanted to explore the outside world.
Private space?
What does she want to do?
Zhou Mochen sneered inwardly.
“Xu Su, I’ve never restricted your freedom. If you want private space, you can go see them anytime you want.”
He said calmly, "Just remember, I must always be number one in your heart. Don't make me restless, at least let me see you every day."
This topic is no longer worth discussing...
Xu Su sighed helplessly, unusually willing to back down: "Even if I can stay with you during the summer vacation, what will I do when I have to live at school after the semester starts?"
"Don't worry, I'll let you live on campus," Zhou Mochen said. "Just remember to send me the class schedule when the time comes."
The subtext made Xu Su's pupils dilate. She looked at him in the bright moonlight: "Zhou Mochen, why do I feel like you're a bit sick? You can't calm down unless you're keeping a close eye on my every move?"
Zhou Mochen hummed in agreement.
He said in a cool and indifferent voice, "Xu Su, you should reflect on yourself and why I acted this way."
You should reflect on yourself...
Xu Sumo, why should she reflect on herself?
Is he using PUA (Pick-Up Artist) tactics?
Right?
Aside from being unable to hide it from Xi Zirong because of his tyranny, Xu Su has given Zhou Mochen the greatest sense of security she could offer since she was seriously with him.
She had become quite adept at coaxing him over the past year, never hiding her affection for him; such passionate and focused feelings were reserved only for him.
Just like now, even though he was very angry that he wouldn't allow her to stay with Huang Feng and the others during the summer vacation, she was still willing to give in and accept his domineering demands.
Xu Su felt helpless and frustrated, yet she couldn't bring herself to lash out at him; she seemed to be feeling more and more sorry for him…
Was she subjected to PUA (Pick-Up Artist) tactics?
Zhou Mochen had no idea what she was thinking. Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a while, he grabbed her chin, bent down, and looked at her: "Su Su, you have to be nicer to me, okay?"
"Am I not good enough to you?" Xu Su retorted.
“Not enough.” Zhou Mochen looked at her quietly. “It could be better. At least let me feel that you really can’t live without me.”
"It has to be you?" Xu Su blinked. "I..."
She hesitated for less than two seconds, then smiled as he slowly narrowed his eyes: "Zhou Mochen, you have such high standards."
