Chapter 391: Start Anew
After more time sleeping, both Yalei and I wake up. A quick glance over to Jin Chin confirms that she's still asleep.
Taking this into account, I ease Jin Chin under the covers, ensuring she's as comfortable as possible, while Yalei and I proceed into the halls. As soon as we get in the halls, Yalei reaches out for my hand, holding it in hers.
“So, we heard you went on dates with the Shi and the others…”
Ah.
So that’s why they were crying.
I had checked before on whether being close with the others would affect them too much… but I didn’t take into account going on dates with Shi, Ai, Lin, and Gong. Mostly because I wasn’t considering it at the time, almost making a big mistake in not doing so.
“Yeah… admittedly, I had realized I should do it much later than I should have. It was only because of Shi that I corrected that.”
Yalei looks a little surprised at this, but seems to be comforted by this. A different reaction than what I was expecting.
Normally, I’d assume that telling another interested person this would hurt them. But with Yalei, she’s much more focused on the intent. My best guess is that the sex means much less to her than the dating.
