Chapter 161: Carrying Cheng Zhu in My Heart [Vote for Monthly Pass!]

Lin Lu asked Cheng Zhu, "Have you ever had a crush on someone before?"

Cheng Zhu first countered, "What about you?"

Then he added, "So, do you have someone you like now?"

Such a question made it unclear for a moment whether he was asking if you currently liked someone or if you previously had a crush on someone.

Chinese culture is profound and extensive, yet sometimes it just gives people extra trouble with more "reading comprehension" to deal with.

Cheng Zhu was indeed making a probe.

He might be a grandmaster-level figure, able to clearly feel whether this girl was interested in him, whether she felt any electricity toward him, and whether their affections were progressing.

However, he was very clear about one thing: what you feel and what the other person thinks they feel do not necessarily align.

Human nature is very complex.

Some people are good at deceiving themselves, everyone can tell you're madly in love with someone, but you keep lying to yourself internally.
