Ridiculous, just ridiculous. Di Yao's fingers tapped one after another...
After the conversation, the dejected Deng Luochen told Di Yao what was on his mind. As luck would have it, the person he had feelings for was none other than the Lin Shuang that Di Yao knew. Deng Luochen also lived in Wrongful Death City, a neighbor of Lin Shuang's. He had gone to Di Yao's place with others from the city to buy grain before, which was why Di Yao found him familiar. They were about the same age, and when Lin Shuang first arrived in Wrongful Death City, Deng Luochen had helped her several times. Gradually, he developed feelings for her.
But Lin Shuang never liked him. Especially after she met Wei Xunzhou, she went out of her way to avoid Deng Luochen. Despite being repeatedly cold-shouldered, Deng Luochen remained steadfast in his infatuation. Taking advantage of their proximity, he often secretly observed Lin Shuang.
Hearing this, Di Yao frowned. "Brother, if you ask me, that's where you're wrong. No woman could tolerate being constantly spied on. It's no wonder Miss Lin Shuang always avoids you. If it were me, I'd have hit you."
As a woman, Di Yao saw things differently from Deng Luochen. She tried to put herself in Lin Shuang's shoes—being watched from morning till night just thinking about it gave her goosebumps.
Deng Luochen didn't believe Di Yao and remained silent. In his view, liking someone meant paying attention to and understanding their life, which was perfectly reasonable. Besides, he hadn't done anything to harm Lin Shuang. Moreover, if Lin Shuang ever ran into trouble, he could help out anytime. He couldn't see any fault in his actions.
