Chapter 927: YAN YAN'S LOVE ADVICE
LUO YAN was glad to see Ying Chen laughing. That's better than the other glaring at him or showing that hurt expression full of sadness. He was about to say something but before he could, the school bell rang. Indicating that it's was time for homeroom. That also seemed to wake Ying Chen from his momentary lapse.
Ying Chen cleared his throat, as if trying to gain his dignity back from laughing out loud earlier. "The bell had already rang, why aren't you leaving?"
Luo Yan raised his brow. "I could say the same to you."
"I want to be alone for a while, so I'm going to skip homeroom. And you, you should just go."
"Nah, why should I?" Luo Yan said, leaning on the building wall. "I haven't even given you advice yet as your love senior."
Ying Chen felt his irritation towards the other rising up again. "Who needs your advice?"
"You."
Ying Chen let out a frustrating sigh. "Do you know how insufferable you are?"
"Hey, don't say that. You'll hurt my feelings," Luo Yan said in a very fake sad voice. He even clutched his chest to add to his acting.
Ying Chen shook his head helplessly. It seemed that no matter what he did, he wouldn't be able to get rid of this guy. So, he decided to just let it be. And at the end, he couldn't help but asked;
"What kind of advice would you even give?"
"Hmm... nothing complicated. As I've said earlier, you need to make Huang Wen regret that he didn't realize your feelings for him sooner," Luo Yan started. "From what I've noticed, the two of you are always together. He probably already considered you as a constant in his life. So, what do you think will happen if you suddenly disappear?"
Ying Chin's brows furrowed. "Are you telling me to transfer?"
"In which part of what I said did I mention you transferring?" Luo Yan asked in a tone as if he's wondering how Ying Chen's brain worked. "We're third years. Why would you transfer?"
Ying Chen felt that his IQ had just been attacked by the other. "Then, make it clearer!"
Luo Yan sighed. "I'm just saying that you should stop hanging around with him for a while. Maybe then he would realize just how important you are."
Ying Chen fell into deep thought. He get what Luo Yan was trying to say, but...
"Of course, I'm important to him. I'm one of his two best friends! Even if I stopped showing my face in front of him, he might just realize just how important I am to him as his friend. Wouldn't that just completely put in the friend zone?"
"That's why you have to make him aware of you first. Not as a friend but as a possible romantic interest."
"You're not suggesting that I confess, right? Because I won't do it."
Especially since the other was just rejected. If Ying Chen confessed, the possibility of him also being rejected was through the roof. It was almost like him directly sacrificing his friendship with the other.
"No, even I knew that that would be a bad idea now," Luo Yan said. "You just have to come out of the closet to him. Considering what happened yesterday, you have a very veritable excuse to do it. Tell him you were hurt by the words he said and they say that you don't want to see him for a while. That way, his attention would be totally focus on you. As you said, you're one of his best friends. There's no way he wouldn't try to fix your relationship. And in the process of him chasing you for reconciliation, you should try to drop subtle hints here and there that you like him."
Ying Chen was starting to see what kind of vision this guy was painting. But he still had a lot of questions and doubts on whether such a plan would even work.
One of which was, "But why do I have to drop hints that I like him?"
"Because if you let him discover that you like him instead of you directly saying it to him, then he would have no choice but to be conscious of you. Whether he likes it or not, he would start to see you not just as a friend but someone who he could be romantically involved with."
Ying Chen was starting to be convinced by what Luo Yan was saying. The doubts he had was also starting to disappear. It's like he was being seduced by the devil's whisper.
It's just that, there was one big problem in all this.
"You do have a point. But you're forgetting something very, very important." Ying Chen looked at the other. "He likes you. How could he start being conscious of me when he still likes you?"
"That might be the case. But I can bet my ass that if he was to choose between us today, he would definitely choose you. He might hesitate at first, but at the end, he would still ultimately choose you. Because even if he says that he likes me, you definitely are more important to him than me."
Ying Chen suddenly blushed after hearing that. And then just as quick, he looked at Luo Yan suspiciously. "You're not just saying that to appease me, right?"
"Why would I do that? We're not even that close."
"Well, that is indeed true," Ying Chen said, nodding his head in agreement. And then realizing that, he said with widened eyes, "Then, you really mean it?"
"Of course," Luo Yan said with confidence. "Let me put it this way, I'm just Huang Wen's gay awakening. While you, you can easily be his true love."
Ying Chen wanted to laugh hearing that. But at the same time, he was also filled with hope. "Do you really think so?"
Luo Yan nodded. "Although if everything still fails at the end, you should also learn how to give up."
"Now, you're just being a party-pooper."
The two of them looked at each other and then both laughed at the same time.
