Chapter 1970: Chapter 1970: Shu Yu Plays the Prophet

The third time he saw her sitting in the courtyard gazing up at the night sky, Shu Yu couldn’t help it anymore. He picked up a plate of snacks, walked over to her, sat down, and asked, "What are you thinking about, so engrossed?"

Meng Han was clearly startled. When she saw it was him, her eyes suddenly became a bit evasive, and her movements became awkward.

Shu Yu raised his eyebrows. Rarely, he actually saw her being so uneasy.

"Did you encounter some trouble? You can talk to me about it."

Meng Han pressed her lips together, hesitating again and again. But she was inherently a straightforward person, and after hesitating for a while, she still looked up and said, "Sister Shuyu, can I ask you a question?"

"Hmm, go ahead."

"What does it mean if someone always thinks about another person? I mean, even though you don’t want to think about it, sometimes you can’t help but connect everything you see and hear with that person. Why is that?"

Shu Yu’s heart skipped a beat, no way...

That day when she casually told Meng Yunzheng that Meng Han might have a sudden epiphany tomorrow, she really didn’t think she’d be playing the prophet.

Seeing the troubled and conflicted look on the person in front of her, she really wanted to smack her own mouth.

Shu Yu asked softly, "Who do you keep thinking about?"

Meng Han was startled, quickly waving her hands, "No, no, I’m not talking about me, I, I, that..." Seeing Shu Yu’s clear and penetrating gaze, she finally put down her hand and admitted dejectedly, "Okay, it’s me."

But she quickly looked up again, "But, but I don’t mean to think about him, I don’t want to think, but I can’t control it."

Shu Yu asked again, "Who is he?"

Meng Han cautiously glanced at her, and then glanced again.

Shu Yu’s patience was wearing thin with all her hemming and hawing, "What are you stammering about? Don’t tell me you like someone you shouldn’t, a married man?"

Meng Han’s face turned crimson. What, what liking? She didn’t say she liked him. Sister Shuyu is too straightforward.

However, when she heard the last part, she quickly responded, "No, it’s not a married man, but that person does have someone he likes. But! But he also likes someone he shouldn’t like."

A love triangle, and such a complicated one? She likes him, but he likes her, and she doesn’t like him back?

Shu Yu rubbed her temples, "So who exactly is the other person?"

"It’s, it’s Gan Rui."

"Pfft, cough cough." Shu Yu choked on her snack, her eyes widened, "Who did you say? Gan Rui?"

Wait, isn’t Gan Rui into Meng Han? How is he liking someone he shouldn’t?

"Who does Gan Rui like?"

Meng Han glanced up at her twice, and hesitantly said, "You, you."

Shu Yu, "..."

She suddenly wanted to laugh. To say she had an epiphany didn’t quite cover it.

Shu Yu took a sip of water to calm her shock. She laughed and said, "Gan Rui really doesn’t like me, he..." She paused midway, feeling this wasn’t something she should say.

"Never mind, first tell me, what’s going on between you and Gan Rui? Weren’t you really wary of him before? Why are you suddenly thinking of him?"

Meng Han’s face flushed, and after a long pause, she angrily said, "It’s all my cousin’s fault."

"What does this have to do with your cousin?"
