Match Point

Chapter 1586: gentleman character

For a long time, Lawrence thought that he was only interested in Gao Wen, a little bit of curiosity, a little bit of affection, that was all.

So, from beginning to end, Lawrence maintained a relaxed state of mind, and even played a prank occasionally.

But now, the regret that was almost suffocating slowly tore the heart apart, and the curvature of the corner of the mouth seemed to be able to feel the weight of gravity almost unable to sustain.

After a slight pause, Lawrence finally said, "You, do you love her?"

After speaking, Lawrence realized that her throat was dry, her brain had stopped spinning, and she didn't know where the question came from; she tried her best to squeeze out a smile, but she was very sure that her smile was terribly stiff, and for a moment I don't know if I should keep going.

but…

Gao Wen didn't notice at all.

Gawain was immersed in his own thoughts, he didn't answer right away, but thought about it seriously—

like?

It is true that he and Pu Lan established a relationship, but it was not long, and it was less than three months after all the calculations. Therefore, they are still in the period of passionate love.

The point is, has liking developed into love?

Thoughts spread in his mind, quickly occupying the entire brain like a spider's web, even Gao Wen didn't realize it, a smile crept up to the corner of his mouth and bloomed quietly, but he could deeply feel the turbulence of emotion, even if it was just thinking Asking this question can also make you feel good.

Although Gawain didn't answer, Lawrence already got the answer from his expression.

Mouth full of bitterness.

Lawrence felt a little regretful, she shouldn't have asked this question, because no matter what the answer was, she wouldn't like it, it just made herself more embarrassed.

Gawain finally collected his thoughts, nodded slightly, "I'm falling."

come down?

— fall in love.

In an instant, Lawrence understood.

Gao Wen was honest, he didn't deal with it perfunctorily or lie, so true and so frank, but it was this sincerity that hurt the most:

Cut the mess with a sharp knife.

Without leaving any hope behind, all relationships were neatly sorted out like this.

Perhaps, in the eyes of others, this is cruel and does not leave any face to women, including Lawrence himself, who was also angry for a moment—

Is this necessary? Is it necessary to do so? Couldn't the refusal be more polite and tactful? Are you still worried about her stalking?

Shame, anger, humiliation, humiliation.

All kinds of emotions were surging, but after only a moment, Lawrence regained his composure.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, this is a gentleman's move, to avoid entanglement and procrastination, and to return to the position of stranger/friend in the simplest and fastest way before more emotional connections are made. This is a kind of respect and a kind of polite.

Even so...Lawrence understood all of those reasons, but she was rejected in the end. Bitterness still spread on the tip of her tongue in such a straightforward way.

"call."

Lawrence exhaled calmly.

"Someone said, are you cruel? It's fine if you refuse, but you still show your affection in front of me. This is not adding salt to the wound. You have to rub it hard after you've sprinkled the salt."

Bold, direct, sharp, and a little haughty.

Lawrence found himself, the self at the center of the spotlight.

Gawain's thoughts were pulled back, he savored Lawrence's words carefully, and then chuckled, "Yes, I've heard of it, and more than once."

Lawrence was stunned, "Wait, are you showing off that you have rejected countless women's confessions?"

…one second, two seconds.

Ha ha!

Gao Wen laughed straight away, "I didn't expect it to be understood in this way. As far as I know, most of the people who say I'm cruel behind their backs should be reporters."

Lawrence immediately realized that his understanding was wrong, his cheeks were slightly hot, but he refused to admit defeat, "It's really not a gentleman at all. After the front foot refuses, the back foot complains and follows. God, I'm starting to doubt my judgment. , why do you think you are particularly attractive?"

"Haha." Gao Wen shrugged slightly, "So, you should thank me for showing your true colors early so that you can wake up."

Lawrence: ? ? ?

"I think you're fooling me." Lawrence was an outspoken person who said whatever came to his mind, and spit it out without hesitation.

As a result, Gao Wen's smile became even brighter.

Lawrence, in a daze—

Looking at Gao Wen with a bright smile and a bright face, his heart skipped a beat again, the throbbing and turbulence made his heart curl up fiercely.

Damn it!

Taking a deep breath, Lawrence reined in on the edge of the cliff, "I understand your refusal; but how should we respond to reporters?"

"I just said that I have a crush on you, but if I turn around and deny it, what's that? Doesn't it make me look like a nympho? Or, do you just announce your relationship directly?"

Lawrence has regained his demeanor, and his ordinary words are full of aggressive strength.

However, this trick didn't work in front of Gao Wen.

"That's your problem, not mine." Gao Wen said calmly, "Facing the reporters, my position has always been consistent, and I have nothing to explain."

Lawrence was dumbfounded, "I didn't expect you to be such a guy!"

Gao Wen's smile bloomed again, "That's why people often say, don't be easily moved, because you will never know what the truth is hidden under that mask."

poof.

Lawrence looked at the cunning and playfulness in Gawain's eyes, and her heart beat hard against her chest. She shifted her gaze in a panic, and the noise and turmoil returned to her sight.

At this moment, I can finally see clearly that the faces are watching with curiosity and inquiry, and one or two elongated ears stand on tiptoe, trying to listen to the conversation between the two; but judging from their expressions, they didn’t hear anything .

It was half a beat later, before Laurence realized that just now Gawain stepped forward and whispered in his ear, no wonder the others around him didn't hear anything; The ambiguity slowly dissipated, and the heartbeat recovered a little.

Maybe it's a good thing to clarify some facts in public.

Thinking of this, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Lawrence turned to look at Gao Wen, regaining his senses, "Tell me, if I slap you now, what will be the headlines on the entertainment section tomorrow?"

Gao Wen: ...

Does this mean that the confession is not enough to become angry?

For a moment, Gawain was blocked by Lawrence's words.

Lawrence looked at Gawain's rare lack of words, and finally let out a long breath. All the dullness, depression, and grievances seemed to disappear, and then his smile bloomed without reservation.

"Ha ha."

Lawrence laughed cheerfully, and made fun of Gawain with a wink.

"Haha, it's rare, it's really rare. I didn't expect that you would have such a time. I thought you could keep calm no matter what the situation was."

This should be the first time she saw Gao Wen's panicked expression since the two had confronted each other many times.
