Chapter 2924 The Effect of the Test
Shino didn't deny it, he just gave a soft "hmm".
The wristband is actually a men's style, but the color combination is so nice that it doesn't look out of place on girls.
More importantly, the wristband is brand new, the size is just right, it doesn't feel loose, and it fits the wrist perfectly.
Charlene was enamored with it, trying it on repeatedly, her eyes filled with delight.
Marcy watched from the side and couldn't help but click her tongue twice.
As someone who grew up with Shino, she could keenly perceive even the slightest changes in him.
The signs at the moment were all too obvious, yet he himself was still unaware of the thoughts that were quietly sprouting within him.
This guy is really slow on the uptake.
Before long, the group had tied on their safety ropes, checked each other to make sure everything was in order, and then began to climb.
Charlene was next to Marcy, while two boys followed on either side of them, clearly acting as their protectors.
During this time, Marcy suddenly seemed to remember something, and with a playful look, she deliberately turned to Charlene and asked, "By the way, didn't you go to lunch with your senior at noon?"
What did you all talk about?
This unexpected question caught Charlene off guard.
She clearly hadn't expected the topic to change so quickly, and for a moment she was speechless, almost unable to respond.
This is how it begins?
She subconsciously looked up at Marcy.
A sly smile flashed in the other person's eyes, and they even gave her a wink, as if signaling her to relax and be more natural.
Charlene hesitated slightly before replying, "It's nothing, just...just normal chatting, talking about club stuff."
Shi Yang didn't believe it, and said in a teasing tone, deliberately drawing out her voice, "Oh... really?"
But I noticed you were speaking hesitantly and stammeringly, and something seemed off.
Could it be that your senior actually used the dinner as an excuse... to confess his feelings to you?
Upon hearing this, Shi Ye, who was standing next to him, almost subconsciously glanced in their direction.
When Shi Yang mentioned this matter this morning, his heart felt as if something had gently touched it.
For a long time afterward, everything I did seemed to be shrouded in a thin mist.
He was visibly distracted during the club meeting.
Even the coach noticed his unusual behavior and couldn't help but ask, "Shi Ye, what are you thinking about? You seem so lost in thought."
He replied casually, "It's nothing."
But deep down, he knew he wasn't paying attention to the meeting content at all.
Later, in order to get into shape, he simply drove onto the track and practiced for several hours.
The wind whistled in my ears, and the roar of the engine temporarily drowned out my chaotic thoughts, but once it stopped, those thoughts quietly resurfaced.
Just now, when I went to pick up Xia Lin at the school gate...
He even unconsciously began to imagine what the two of them would talk about and what the atmosphere would be like when they met.
This involuntary speculation made him suddenly realize his abnormal behavior.
He took a deep breath, trying to suppress the unease and prevent it from affecting his actions and judgment.
Even now, when Shi Yang brings up this matter, he still can't help but subconsciously listen.
Charlene didn't answer immediately, seemingly conflicted and hesitant.
She remained silent for a long while, her gaze wandering, as if she were weighing something in her mind, before finally nodding slightly and replying, "Yes, I did."
Marcy, looking curious, couldn't help but ask again, "You really told me? What was your answer then?"
Upon hearing this question, Charlene subconsciously turned her head and glanced lightly at Shi Ye beside her.
Shino was staring at her, his eyes holding a deep, unfathomable meaning.
Charlene hesitated for a moment, then said softly but with a hint of hesitation, "I haven't agreed yet, after all... I don't have those feelings for him right now."
She pursed her lips and continued, "But he said it's okay, he can wait for me, and... he's willing to give me time to slowly accept him."
Although their conversation wasn't exactly like that, she understood the general meaning behind her senior's words; there wasn't much difference.
Marcy listened with even greater interest and then asked, "Is there anything else? Did he say anything else?"
Charlene nodded and replied, "Yes, he also made a promise with me."
He said that if I still didn't have a boyfriend after a while, he would let me try accepting him and dating him.
Marcy smiled approvingly and said, "Not bad! You know how to behave appropriately, neither offending anyone nor making the situation awkward."
Moreover, judging from his attitude towards you, he really likes you a lot!
Even after being explicitly rejected, they still did not give up easily.
This kind of persistence is quite rare.
She paused briefly, then her tone became more serious: "I think the senior is a very good person and is also very outstanding."
I heard that he comes from a good family background, and you can tell from his upbringing and demeanor.
If we were really to be together, I would be perfectly worthy of you, wouldn't I, Ah Si?
Zhou Si and Ma Xi had a great understanding; even without prior notice, they knew what she was going to do and could easily continue the conversation.
He replied, "I asked Xiao Zhi, and he said that You Qian is not only outstanding in his personal abilities, but also has consistently excellent academic performance."
Moreover, he performed very well in the charity organization, handling many tasks that required coordination and planning in an orderly manner, earning the trust of everyone.
His character and abilities are both good; it remains to be seen what Charlene herself considers.
Marcy nodded seriously, quite agreeing. "I think so too."
After saying that, she suggested, "If there's no one else to choose from right now, why not consider your senior?"
Even starting as friends and getting to know each other better is a good idea.
Who knows, we might actually find that we're a good match and end up falling for each other?
Charlene looked embarrassed.
Does the probing need to go this far?
Moreover, does doing this actually work?
From the beginning, she had been secretly observing Shino's expression without making a sound.
The boy's expression remained indifferent as always, his eyelids were slightly taut, and he would occasionally glance in her direction.
But his emotions remained restrained and controlled, making it impossible to discern what he was truly thinking.
What effect does this probing have?
Charlene was feeling very anxious and uncertain.
Suddenly, Shi Ye spoke up calmly, saying, "Are you two usually so free? You've even become matchmakers?"
Didn't she say she'd already refused? If she doesn't have that intention, she shouldn't force it on others!
Besides, he's not that old, why think so much?
When it comes to relationships, just let things take their natural course.
