Suddenly, Lin Mumu opened her mouth to say: “Xiao Nigu, you tell me whether I should be angry or not. My Senior Brother actually said that he would definitely become a Taoist priest in the future. I don’t know how many young girls’ heart in the world would be broken by this news.”
“I heard from my master that University Director Lin was so angry he fainted several times because of Senior Brother. His father painstakingly convinced him about the great righteousness of carrying the ancestral line many times. He also went as far as finding a lot of famous Beijing ladies to meet him in blind dates, yet, he failed to arouse even a little bit of interest from him.
Oh, that’s right, among those ladies, there was also Su Xinlan, our school’s most talented young lady.”
Lin Mumu casually gossiped while cheerfully eating her food, seemingly unintentionally revealing information. Yet, she was actually carefully paying attention to Chen Fangya’s reaction out of the corner of her eye.
After hearing out Lin Mumu, Chen Fangya appeared to be a little dazed for a while. After all, once one’s heart moved for someone, it wasn’t easy to let go of those feelings. She asked Lin Mumu again:
“I heard that the power of love is infinite. Maybe Senior Lin just hasn’t met the right person yet.”
After rolling her eyes in a full circle in exasperation, Lin Mumu quietly thought in her mind: Senior Brother, I’m doing a good deed, so please don’t blame me later for throwing you in a pit.
After mysteriously looking around as if she was about to tell her a great secret, Lin Mumu suddenly pulled Chen Fangya closer to her and gently whispered near her ear: “Actually, my Senior Brother doesn’t like female students. En, it’s precisely that idea you always had on mind.
He was afraid that the secular world wouldn’t allow him to marry, and he was also afraid his family might force him to get married, so he found a convenient excuse by saying that he was committed to the Tao and wished to become a Taoist priest.”
Chen Fangya’s heart was thoroughly broken this time. Looking around at the room and its furniture, she was more and more convinced by what Lin Mumu told her, and thought it was very plausible.
“No wonder Yun Ting never guards against Lin Tianlang, yet, keeps An Mingxuan away like a thief every time. It turns out that your senior brother can’t be interested in you in the first place.”
Once you believed something, you would always find possible reasons for it, and so did Chen Fangya once she learned that her Senior Lin ‘didn’t like girls’.
