Novel I Heard You Like Me Too - Chapter 41

Chapter 41

After a long silence, Du Yu Shu suddenly asked, “Ge, have you ever liked someone?”

She quickly added, “No, I should ask, have you ever loved someone?”

Du Yan Su didn’t answer the question. He smiled in amusement and pats Du Yu Shu’s head as if he was comforting a crying Du Yu Shu, “I don’t think me ever loving someone has anything to do with this situation.”

“You never loved someone right?” Du Yu Shu slightly looked up at him and faintly smiled. She charmingly hooks a strand of hair behind her ear and calmly but certainly said, “You never.”

How could you understand what it’s like to want to be close to someone but not having the ability to do so? Once you try to get close, you will get hurt and you have to remind yourself a billion times that it is never going to happen. The only thing you could do is keep your feelings bottled up inside.

I don’t have the courage to do this.

I can’t tell him that I liked him for ten years. I like him so much, more than he could even fathom.

I can’t.

I can’t stand to see other people’s pity, sympathy, remorse, and embarrassment.

Especially from him.

“Ge, do you remember?” Du Yu Shu looked out the window, “Grandpa Butler once said that our parents were in love.”

“It is easy to fall in love, but not every couple could stay together let alone love each other forever. Dating could end up in separation, marriage could end up in divorce. Even if there is love” Du Yu Shu paused and continued, “It will lead to negligence and in the end, hate.”

“........Ye Jing An and I, are just like this.

“We are not compatible.”

“Tch––” Du Yan Shu snorted. The original atmosphere became even worse. He smiled as if none of the gloomy situations happened, “Baby, don’t you think you are being too pessimistic?”

“I wonder what is going on in that little head of yours.” Du Yan Su rubbed her hair messily. Du Yu Shu pushed his hand away.

The atmosphere eased down.

Du Yan Su cupped her cheeks and seriously stared into her eyes, “Look into my eyes, Shu Shu.”

Du Yan Su’s eyes were surprisingly sharp, making her want to turn her eyes away.

“Silly child,” Du Yan Su helplessly said, “What do you take me for?”

“Do you think your brother is useless?” Du Yan Su feigned anger and teasingly said, “If Ye Jing An ever dares to abandon you or bully you, I will tie him up on your bed and have you vent.”

“Ge––!” Du Yu Shu exclaim, her face burning. “What nonsense are you spouting!”

“Am I?” Du Yan Su pretended not to hear, “You’re my little princess, my treasure, how can I let you suffer any grievances?”

“What’s the big deal, it’s only Ye Jing An. If you like him, we could just tie him up and drug him at home. If you don’t like him anymore, we could just throw him out. It’s a simple matter, why do you have to worry so much about it?”

”Ge–––!”

“What, you feel anguished?” Du Yan Su snickered and helplessly put down his hand, “Sometimes, I want to pry open your head and see what’s inside that brain of yours.”

“Are the shadows left my mom and dad too big?” Du Yan Su carefully thought, “But Shu Shu, you’re not like mom.”

“Ye Jing An is also not the same as father. You already know this. How do you know that you and Ye Jing An are not compatible?” Du Yan Su sighed, “Are you happy to sentence each other to death?”

Of course not….

Du Yu Shu bit her lip and shook her head.

Du Yan Su gently looks at her, “You’re my sister, my little princess, you’ve always been domineering and spirited, what are you afraid of?”

“All you have is me. You only need to do what you want to do. If you like him, then be together with him. How can you even think about breaking up when you haven’t even been together. Why are you thinking so far ahead?”Du Yan Su doesn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “Why don’t you think about your future children as well?” 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖

“Ge––––!” Du Yu Shu whined.

“Okay, okay, I won’t say any more.” Du Yan Su raised his hand in surrender, “The future is created by two people, it is not for you to decide alone.”

Du Yan Su’s eyes were very gentle as if he finally reached a conclusion after all these years. His eyes seemed to be looking out the window as well as looking at Du Yu Shu.

“Baby, are you doubting yourself?”

Du Yan Su’s voice wasn’t very loud and there seemed to be a trace of a smile on his lips. However, the seriousness of that sentence struck her.

“I’m not––” Du Yu Shu retorted.

“Really?” Du Yan Su sharply stared at her as if he could look at through her.

“I….I…..he likes that other person, the one who I pretend to be. She’s the fake Du Yu Shu, she is not me!”

“Really?” Du Yan Su laughed, “Whether it is you acting or pretending, isn’t it all you?

“Besides, how can you be so sure that the Ye Jing An you see is the real Ye Jing An.”

“Of course I can.” Du Yu Shu simply retorted, how could she not see the real Ye Jing An?

She observed him for eight years!

Du Yan Su silently watched her and slowly said, “Be brave, Yu Shu.”

“Don’t live your life in regret.” Du Yan Su looked at her and slowly said, “He received a delicate and pretty girl and walked down the flower covered carpet as everyone blessed them. They smiled at each other in front of witnesses and promised to be together.”

Du Yu Shu’s face revealed a complicated expression. She bit her lower lip and endure the searing pain in her heart. Finally, she released a breath, her eyes shining, “I understand.”

“Thank you, ge.”

“Silly girl, there’s no need to say thank you.” Du Yan Su rubbed her head and teasingly smiled, “If worst comes to worst, I could just have you brought back to me.”

”Ge!”

“Although I don’t like the idea of you being with someone else, you’re an adult now, I can’t take care of you forever.” Du Yan Su sighed, his heart felt uncomfortable.

”Ge!”

“Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore. I still have some stuff to do at the company so I have to go,” Du Yan Su smiled, “Hurry and get some rest, I heard you still have to film in the afternoon.”

“En.” Du Yu Shu nodded, “Ge, have you eaten yet? Why don’t you rest a while then go back? I….”

“I already ate. Rest assured, I’m someone who sleeps until 11 in the morning,” Du Yan Su opened the door and smiled, “Don’t worry about me, bye.”

When he walked outside, Du Yan Su saw a frightened Wang Jie standing by the door. He coldly smiled, “Come.”

“Chief Du….” Wang Jie smiled, her heart beating rapidly. When she saw Du Yan Su’s cold smile, she wants to turn around and kill herself.

“Such big matter has occurred and you didn’t even report it to me. As an agent, you must be doing very well ah.” Du Yan Su indifferently said as he made his way towards the exit. Wang Jie could only trail after him with a heart full of regret. It’s better not to act rashly. She went on to carefully explain, “I also just found out…”

“Shu Shu like Ye Jing An for so long yet you, as her agent, just found out? Heh.”

Du Yan Su smiled. Wang Jie almost tripped over and immediately changed her story, “I know, I know…”

“You knew but you didn’t report. Wang Jie, that is contrary to your abilities.” Du Yan Su abruptly turned around, causing Wang Jie to almost bump into him. Wang Jie was scared silly that her tears almost fell down. She heard him say, “Tell me exactly what happened.”

“I want to know everything that happened between Shu Shu and Ye Jing An in the entertainment circle, not a detail to be spared. Do you understand?”

Face with Du Yan Su’s cold demeanor, how could Wang Jie not understand? She is afraid that she might speak slowly or she wouldn’t be able to explain clearly. Du Yan Su didn’t look at her anymore and turned away.

I clearly hate those surnamed Ye, Du Yan Su squinted and looked at the sun, but my little girl just has to fall in love with a Ye.

But what other solutions are there? Rather than see her stiffly and cruelly leave Ye Jing An, I would she be together with Ye Jing An.

I don’t ever want to see the look of pain and emptiness on Shu Shu’s face. I already make an oath to protect her and live a life of peace and prosperity. So how could I bear to see her unhappy?

Du Yu Shu didn’t rest at all. She had been thinking about Du Yan Su’s words since noon and repeatedly ask herself is she really a coward.

Du Yu Shu took a deep breath. Sure enough, she really is a coward.

What about Ye Jing An? Does he really hate her or is he also afraid to admit his feelings….?

Du Yu Shu doesn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Why is she thinking about this all of a sudden? She is not Ye Jing An, how would she know what he thinks.

The afternoon filming began quickly. Du Yu Shu and Ye Jing An were sent back to where they originally were. It could be that she is imaging things but Du Yu Shu felt like the place is much brighter than this morning.

Especially when she saw Ye Jing An’s stiff body, she felt inexplicably happy.

To them, the three or so treasure maps they found this morning were a puzzle. They don’t know if they are real or how many pieces are out there. Du Yu Shu turned to Ye Jing An, “Can you please keep up?”

“En.” Ye Jing An stiffly nodded his head. Du Yu Shu looked at him in contempt, “I really want to see how those fan of yours would react when they see their male god like this.”

“I would also like to see if your fans saw vicious nature, would they still call you a goddess?” Ye Jing An retorted. This type of word squabble made him feel a lot better. When Du Yu Shu avoided him like a plague earlier, his eyes drooped down, revealing an incomprehensible expression.

Du Yu Shu stood there silently. Ye Jing An turned around and look at her in question, “Let’s go, didn’t you want me to speed up?”

Du Yu Shu’s body trembled, her eyes wide in panic as if she had seen something terrible. She raised her trembling finger and pointed up front, her eyes began to tear up, “T-that….AHHHH!”

Ye Jing An was taken aback by her scream. Before he could even think, he strode towards Du Yu Shu and blocked her view. He opened his arms and held onto her as he issued a louder scream, “.......AHHHHHH!”

Even if it is this way, Ye Jing An still stood firmly in front of Du Yu Shu.

Even though he is very scared himself.

Du Yu Shu’s scream gradually stop. She wanted to struggle free but in the end, she just bit her lips and gave up. She just looked at Ye Jing An, patted his back and whispered, “Baby, be good. Mommy’s here, don’t be afraid.”

“Baby, be good. There are no such things as ghosts in this world. Don’t be afraid.”

Ye Jing An’s body gradually relaxed as he stared at Du Yu Shu. Various kinds of emotions flashed in his eyes that Du Yu Shu couldn’t even understand.

“Is it fun?” He indifferently asked.

“Is it fun to make fun of me?” Ye Jing An asked again; he seemed to be very angry. This type of anger is different from the anger that could be seen from an ordinary person. He coldly looked at her and repeated it word by word, “Is. It. Fun?”

His eyes were ice cold. Du Yu Shu had never seen him with such cold eyes before and wanted to explain but she doesn’t know how “Are you angry?”

The cameramen and the two accompanying directors following behind them could feel that the atmosphere is wrong. The two directors looked at each other and hurried over to confirm the situation. If the artists are fighting, they could only stop filming.

“Angry?” Ye Jing An repeated and seemed to be laughing, “What do you think?”

Du Yu Shu didn’t answer as Ye Jing An silently stared at her. The accompanying directors glanced at each other in surprise and hurried over to their rescue. Ye Jing An suddenly circled his arms around Du Yu Shu and shouted, “Ghost AHHHHH––––!”

“I’m really afraid of ghosts ahhhhh––––”

The accompanying directors stumbled, “.....”

Cameramen, “.....”

Du Yu Shu, “....”

Ye Jing An was unaware that he had left everyone speechless. He looked pitifully at Du Yu Shu with his doe eyes like a poor little animal.

This Ye Jing An who is like a flower at a high peak*, who is always cold and mysterious could actually….

Like a frightened little animal, he pitifully stared at her and said in a baby voice, “You have to protect me….”

“Baby is scared.”

His appearance looks like a cute little kitten rolling on the ground.

But the difference between the unattainable male god and a cute little kitten is….

Du Yu Shu’s heart couldn’t help but melt!

“Mommy is protecting baby right now.” Although Ye Jing An’s arms are strongly encircled around her, he looks like a very cute kitten. She softly spoke, “Baby don't cry.”

Not only was Du Yu Shu won over by his cuteness, but the two accompanying directors were also won over as well!

Their cold, mysterious and unattainable male god could actually be so coquettish!

Du Yu Shu’s face instantly turned red as she steeled her voice, “Why should I protect you?!”

Accompanying director: Bring that male god over to me! I will protect him!

Ye Jing An narrowed his eyes and disguised the cunningness and satisfaction in it, “Baby is really scared.”

“Mommy just bullied baby.”

Du Yu Shu was left momentarily speechless as guilt rose in her heart.

Du Yu Shu simply took Ye Jing An’s slender and white hand and resentfully said, “You must obediently follow me!”

Although her tone was resentful and her grip on his hand was tight, Ye Jing An nodded his head in satisfaction and silently chuckled to himself.

It looks that this strategy is still useful.
