Chapter 852 David confesses his love again, Ye Zhenzhen rejects him.
When faced with his mother's opposition to his relationship with Ye Zhenzhen, David directly revealed that Zhou Chen, the boyfriend Ye Zhenzhen mentioned, was actually a shield she had found.
These words immediately changed David's mother's mind again. It meant that her son David still had a chance. If her son could win over Ye Zhenzhen, then her company would be saved.
Thinking of this, David's mother beckoned to her son, signaling him to sit on the edge of the bed, and then began to ask, "Oh dear, since you like Ye Zhenzhen so much, Mom won't object to you two being together."
But how confident are you about winning over Ye Zhenzhen?
Ye Zhenzhen, being a wealthy second-generation heiress, has a very arrogant personality. She's not easy to handle. Do you want me to give you some advice? I have experience dealing with these little brats.”
David interrupted his mother before she could finish speaking. David knew what his mother was thinking; she had just objected to them being together, but now she had changed her mind, clearly indicating that she hadn't given up.
"You should stay in the hospital and rest. I'll handle my relationship problems myself. Just a word of advice: don't show up in front of Zhenzhen anymore. It will only embarrass me more."
"After all this fuss you put on today, I still don't know how to explain it to Zhenzhen."
David also expressed his headache. After his mother's outburst, he believed that Ye Zhenzhen's impression of him must be very bad. The family situation was already a mess, and now he didn't know if Ye Zhenzhen would resent him.
Seeing her son's pathetic state, David's mother immediately became displeased. "You don't look like someone who's pursuing Ye Zhenzhen at all. You look more like her lapdog. Where did your former confidence go?"
"Go get a mirror and look at yourself. When you're trying to woo a girl, can't you have a little more confidence? With that furrowed brow, who wouldn't feel unlucky looking at you?"
Although our family is currently in a low point, you were once a rich second generation. Where is your arrogance and charm?
You are absolutely worthy of Ye Zhenzhen. If you don't have that thought, why are you pursuing her? Are you just trying to be a kept man?
My son isn't like that. Mom believes in you, so cheer up!
I don't need your help here. You should go and explain things to Ye Zhenzhen."
David's mother began to encourage him, but David said that it was already late and he would go to see Ye Zhenzhen tomorrow, as he needed to stay at the hospital to take care of his mother.
Unfortunately, David was kicked out by his mother. His son couldn't help anyway, so it was better to let him go back and rest.
Otherwise, if he stays up all night at the hospital, how will he have the energy to see Ye Zhenzhen tomorrow? Wouldn't that leave an even worse impression on Ye Zhenzhen?
The next day was a day off. David knocked on Ye Zhenzhen's door. Ye Zhenzhen, who was not at work, was a little surprised to see David standing at the door. Why was David not at the hospital taking care of his mother? What did he want to do here?
"David, is your mother alright? We had a little argument yesterday, and I didn't expect it to upset your mother so much that it triggered her cervical spondylosis. Should I buy some things and go see her?"
Faced with Ye Zhenzhen's question, David shook his head and refused, saying, "You'd better not go and join in the fun. I know my mother went a bit too far by coming to see you yesterday. I'm here today to apologize to you. I also brought you breakfast. Would you like to try some?"
Ye Zhenzhen did not refuse. After letting David into the house, she immediately asked what she wanted to know.
"David, what exactly did you and your mom talk about? She said you like to stare at your phone in a daze, and even mistook me for your girlfriend. Isn't this misunderstanding a bit too big? Have you explained it to her yet?"
Who knew that David would take this opportunity to confess his feelings to Ye Zhenzhen again? This completely caught Ye Zhenzhen off guard; she never expected David to be so proactive.
"Although my mother misunderstood, this is what I wanted, so why should I explain?"
Zhenzhen, I wanted to confess my feelings to you last time, but Zhou Chen interrupted me.
I want to confess my feelings again this time. I really like you, and I wonder if you can give me this chance?
The sudden confession left Ye Zhenzhen speechless. After a moment of contemplation, she smiled and declined, saying, "David, I didn't expect you to still be so good at joking. The reason we can get along is entirely because I consider you a buddy. Your sudden confession has really caught me off guard."
It feels like I treat you like a brother, but you want me to have your baby. Isn't that a bit ridiculous?
David couldn't smile at Ye Zhenzhen's smile, because it sounded like Ye Zhenzhen was rejecting him again.
If Ye Zhenzhen also likes David, she should accept it without hesitation.
Unfortunately, what Ye Zhenzhen said was that they were just buddies, which was quite hurtful. It was as if the man had feelings for her but she didn't reciprocate, and it was all unrequited love.
David hesitated for a moment before asking his own thoughts, or rather, his own conflicted feelings.
"Zhenzhen, I've always wanted to ask you this: did you reject me because of Zhou Chen?"
I know you've been using Zhou Chen, this fake boyfriend, as a shield. Is he really your fake boyfriend? Or is your relationship really just a fake boyfriend-girlfriend relationship?
You've never liked Zhou Chen. Are you sure you didn't reject me because of him?
The answers to these questions were very important to David. He also suspected that Ye Zhenzhen might like Zhou Chen, but she was just unaware of it, or rather, she was unwilling to admit it.
If that's the case, then David has no reason to pursue Ye Zhenzhen, because he simply can't get into Ye Zhenzhen's heart.
This series of questions left Ye Zhenzhen completely bewildered. After a moment's hesitation, she immediately retorted, "David, what you're saying is getting more and more outrageous. Zhou Chen is a playboy. He has two girlfriends. How could I possibly like Zhou Chen?"
I've always just used him as a shield. And let me tell you, Zhou Chen is actually quite useful. Not only did he shield me from the research institute's scandals, but he also helped deal with my family. Yesterday, I even used him to reject your mother. See, I should thank him properly now.
David gave a wry smile. He seemed to understand something, but Ye Zhenzhen herself just couldn't see it.
"David, what are you laughing at? What did I say wrong?"
Seeing David's strange expression, Ye Zhenzhen asked, "Did I say anything inappropriate?"
David immediately explained, "You hesitated just now. Was that your true thought?"
I also thought about things from the past. You were very resistant when Zhou Chen first pretended to be your boyfriend. I didn't expect you to accept it so naturally now. Maybe your heart has changed, but you just don't want to admit it.
Perhaps the timing of my confession to you today is inappropriate. You might think I have ulterior motives, that I'm like my mother trying to take advantage of your family, and it's understandable that you might reject me.
You know me well; I wouldn't stoop to doing something like that. Just pretend I didn't say what I just said. I'm afraid we won't even be able to be friends anymore.
I'll head back now. You should get some rest.
David left looking somewhat disappointed; clearly, Ye Zhenzhen's answer was not the result he wanted.
Ye Zhenzhen frowned as she pondered David's words. Had her attitude toward Zhou Chen really changed?
I've always disliked Zhou Chen, that playboy, and that hasn't changed.
Ye Zhenzhen reminded herself of this; she would never admit that she liked Zhou Chen, and she still hated playboys.
Even if her attitude towards Zhou Chen changed, it was because of Lucy and Yu Chuhui. After all, Zhou Chen was her best friend's boyfriend, so of course she had to give her best friend some face. That's why she didn't have a major falling out with Zhou Chen.
Ye Zhenzhen found another excuse for herself, but it sounded somewhat contradictory. Only she knew what she was really thinking.
