Who Would Fall in Love After Being Reborn?
Chapter 63: Test of Love

TL: Etude

“What are you two talking about?”

Gao Wenhui, with newly bought headphones, squeezed out of the crowded area and plopped down next to Feng Nanshu.

“I’m educating Feng Nanshu on the most advanced love knowledge.”

“You didn’t let me teach, and now you’re doing it secretly? Oh, I get it, you’re into the nurturing game!”

With a cold smile, Gao Wenhui retorted, “Sly dog, you really have many tricks up your sleeve.”

Feng Nanshu finished the last bit of cotton candy and looked up with her moist eyes, “Wenhui, what’s this ‘nurturing game’?”

“There are always some naive girls in the world, clueless about love, like a blank slate, yet they tend to trust others easily. Some men exploit this, molding them into shapes they prefer. That’s what ‘nurturing’ means.”

Jiang Qin couldn’t help but twitch his mouth, thinking, “What’s wrong with you, Gao? Why is every sentence so suggestive? Aren’t you supposed to be focusing on your postgraduate studies?”

Feng Nanshu understood this simplistic explanation, but felt it was irrelevant to her, “Wenhui, I’ve never met such girls.”

“You are exactly that kind of girl.”

“…”

Feng Nanshu was struck as if by lightning, “Am I really that foolish?”

Gao Wenhui frowned, “This ‘foolishness’ doesn’t mean stupid. It describes someone who’s slow in matters of the heart, taking a long time even to recognize their own feelings.”

“When did I ever feel that way?”

“Your heart’s already fluttering, okay?”

Jiang Qin couldn’t resist interrupting, “Gao Wenhui, stop teaching already. My little rich lady scored 671 in her college entrance exam. Dare you call her foolish? What did you score?”

“I also got six hundred… well, anyway, less than her.”

Jiang Qin scoffed and turned to Feng Nanshu, “She’s never been in a relationship but acts like a teacher. You’d definitely be misled!”

Gao Wenhui felt a sore spot hit, “Though I’ve never been in a relationship, I think I understand more than Feng Nanshu!”

“Fine, let me ask you a question. Your boyfriend sees a beautiful bouquet of flowers on his way to the hospital but doesn’t buy them for you. What would you do after finding out?”

“How can that be okay? Why wouldn’t he buy them for me? Love needs little gifts to stay fresh. I think I’d directly ask him why and then decide whether to forgive him.” Gao Wenhui was fully immersed, already beginning to get angry.

Jiang Qin mocked, “Let the little rich lady answer.” Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ NʘvᴇlFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Feng Nanshu pursed her rosy lips, “I should ask, ‘Why are you going to the hospital? Are you sick?’”

“…”

Gao Wenhui was stunned for three seconds, then cursed inwardly, feeling like a fool, disbelief flashing in her eyes.

Jiang Qin laughed at her reaction, thinking, “There’s indeed a difference between those who’ve been tutored and those who haven’t.”

As for the little rich lady, she’s genuinely smart. Her ignorance in many areas is because she’s never learned or experienced them. But once you explain the logic to her, she’s incredibly adept.

And Gao Wenhui? She’s just theorizing without experience, thinking she understands love from reading a few romance novels. But those novelists might be inexperienced themselves!

“Enough, let’s all go back to sleep. We have military training tomorrow. None of us has been in a relationship; what insightful discussion can we have?”

Jiang Qin was ready to leave, but Gao Wenhui couldn’t accept it, “No, no, ask another question. I’m sure I can answer it!”

Jiang Qin sat back, exasperated, “If your boyfriend sees a beautiful bouquet on his way to a hotel room but doesn’t buy them for you, what would you do?”

“I know, ask him why he’s going to a hotel. Who’s he staying with?”

“Pah, are you questioning me? Don’t you trust me? Break up!”

“??????”

Gao Wenhui felt as if she had been struck on the head, her world going dark.

Jiang Qin laughed so hard he almost cried, thinking, “You can’t even handle my two punches, and you’re teaching my little rich lady about love? Now do you realize how treacherous the human heart can be?”

“Jiang Qin, I have a question for you too!” Feng Nanshu suddenly spoke up.

Jiang Qin turned his attention to the little rich lady, “Alright, go ahead.”

“If I saw a particularly delicious cotton candy on my way to the hospital but didn’t buy it for you, would you scold me when I got home?”

“Why would I let you go to the hospital alone? Stop kidding. I’d definitely be by your side, buying the cotton candy for you.”

As he finished speaking, Feng Nanshu couldn’t help but smile, her eyes starting to shimmer with a watery glow, twinkling and dazzling.

Meanwhile, Gao Wenhui stood there dumbfounded, first staring at Feng Nanshu and then at Jiang Qin, thinking that among everyone present, she was the least experienced.

How did they come up with such answers?

She had also tried to think of a response, wondering why one would go to the hospital, only to be completely blindsided by Jiang Qin’s answer!

It was half past ten at night, and the darkness had deepened.

After escorting the little rich lady back to her dorm, promising to go see the carp with her the next day, Jiang Qin walked back, his face heavy with thoughts.

To be honest, after seven years of unrequited love and being asked for money and property in arranged meetings, he felt a bit fearful of romance.

Could a person who has lived twice really grasp love so easily? What a joke!

Moreover, he was still unclear whether the little rich lady relied on him more or liked him more, making it really hard for him to think clearly.

But…

The phrase “a lifetime” sounded really significant.

When a girl asks how to be with you for a lifetime, it’s fatal.

“Old Jiang, why are you so distracted?”

As soon as he entered, Cao Guangyu sat up from his bed, surprised by the troubled look on Jiang Qin’s face.

Old Jiang had always been impressive since the beginning of the term, handling everything with ease. This was the first time he showed such an expression, so Cao Guangyu immediately became curious.

“It’s nothing.”

“We’re brothers, what can’t you tell us?”

The more Jiang Qin said that, the more Cao Guangyu couldn’t resist inquiring.

“It’s nothing major, just a bit troubled,” Jiang Qin said, rubbing his forehead and inadvertently furrowing his brows.

Seeing this, Cao Guangyu got excited. He recognized this feeling; it was the trouble of dealing with a difficult situation. It was the first time he’d seen Jiang Qin flustered since the start of the term. If he couldn’t pry it out and have a good laugh, he wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight!

“Old Jiang, spit it out. I’ll help you analyze it!”

Zhou Chao and Ren Ziqiang also gathered around, “Yeah, tell us. Three heads are better than one!”

Jiang Qin sighed, “Alright, I’ll keep it brief.”

“Wait, let me sit up first!”

Cao Guangyu rolled out of bed. He wasn’t stupid; lying down while laughing was the easiest way to get a stitch, “Go ahead, Old Jiang. I’m ready.”

Jiang Qin cleared his throat, “I once swore not to get involved in love, but today suddenly a girl said she wants to be with me for a lifetime. Now I kind of feel like gnawing on a bone. Do you guys know where to buy tasty ribs?”

“…”

Cao Guangyu slapped himself, thinking, “That’s what I get for being nosy. I’ve brought it on myself.”

AN: I’ve been on a plane all day yesterday and driving on the highway today. My stockpile of chapters is used up, I’m crying. The pace might be a bit slow, and the writing not very detailed. If there are any issues, feel free to scold me. I’ll definitely stock up more chapters in the future.
