"Can."
Almost as soon as Li Zimu finished asking, Tang Chen gave the answer without even asking for help.
He just looked at Li Zimu and said extremely seriously:
"Miss Li, tell me."
"As long as I can do it, I will not shirk it."
"..."
The breeze blew through Li Zimu's hair, and the surprise in her eyes flashed, she lowered her head and answered weakly:
"Master Tang."
"I, I actually just want to know if I really like Xianping."
"And you can read minds, so..."
"I understand, it's not difficult."
Suddenly feeling a twinge in his heart, Tang Chen suppressed the emotion and nodded calmly.
"But my mind-reading power cannot read people's minds. I can only read the truth or falsehood of what they say."
"So Miss Li, you still have to say something related to this."
"Is this so..."
Li Zimu nodded, immediately adjusted his sitting posture, turned around to face Tang Chen, and whispered shyly:
"I, I really like Mr. Chu..."
"Is this okay?"
"..."
The rising sun fell in Li Zimu's eyes, filled with a woman's affection for her beloved.
Looking at her eyes, Tang Chen felt that he didn't even need to use mind reading, the result was already clear.
However, with that ten thousandth of hope, he still silently summoned the tapir leopard and ordered the latter to look at Li Zimu.
"..."
The dark eye holes were extremely deep. The tapir leopard just glanced at it and then closed its eyes again, its long trunk moving up and down.
The answer is as guessed, Li Zimu is telling the truth.
"Miss Li..."
Pain, disappointment, unwillingness.
But there is a sense of relief.
Tang Chen didn't know what kind of mood he was feeling at this time, so he just nodded slightly and said:
"I've already used mind-reading skills, and what you said is indeed true."
"Really?!"
Li Zimu immediately covered his mouth, the surprise on his face was beyond words.
She first breathed a sigh of relief, but after a few breaths, her eyes became more worried.
"What's wrong?"
Tang Chen held back the pain in his heart and asked with a smile: "I finally understand my own mind, shouldn't this be a good thing?"
"It's a good thing, but Mr. Wei will never trust me again..."
Li Zimu smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid this is self-inflicted trouble."
"This... Mr. Wei is not such an unreasonable person, is he?"
Tang Chen advised: "Not everyone can understand their own thoughts, let alone something as unpredictable as the relationship between a man and a woman."
"It's just too arbitrary to conclude that you are lying to Mr. Chu after just one question."
"Anyway, there will be a long time to come. I believe Mr. Wei will understand."
Advising the woman she loves not to give up on the man she loves... This is an experience that no man would ever want to experience.
Tang Chen persuaded him with a forced smile, but Li Zimu just shook his head bitterly after hearing this.
"Having said that, since Mr. Wei has reached this point, it shows that he must have a temperament that would rather kill by mistake than let go."
"So when I didn't immediately give him the answer he wanted this morning, the end for Xianping and I was already doomed."
"Forget it, that's it."
"At least I know my feelings for Xianping, and that's enough..."
Li Zimu raised his head and looked at Tang Chen, his tone was extremely lonely.
The former couldn't persuade her anymore after hearing what she said, and because he felt so uncomfortable now, he got up and prepared to go back to the house to relax.
"Miss Li, if that's the case, then you should think about it yourself."
"If nothing happens, I will first..."
"Mr. Tang, I, I would like to ask you for one more favor."
After gently interrupting Tang Chen's farewell, a blush suddenly appeared on Li Zimu's face.
"Actually, Young Master Wei asked me another question this morning."
"He asked me if I was also interested in you..."
"..."
His body trembled suddenly, and Tang Chen was completely confused.
It wasn't that he couldn't figure out why Wei Changtian would ask this. After all, every move he made when getting along with Li Zimu yesterday must have been watched by the secret whistle. It was reasonable for Wei Changtian to have such suspicion.
Tang Chen just didn't understand why Li Zimu would tell this matter.
After all, if the latter really likes Chu Xianping, how could he still like himself?
What's more, compared with Chu Xianping, he was inferior in appearance, status, and power in all aspects. The only advantage he had was that he had not married yet.
So, the answer to this question should be obvious.
So why did Li Zimu mention this matter in front of him?
To humiliate yourself?
Impossible, Miss Li will never be this kind of person.
So...could it be that the answer Li Zimu gave at that time was different from what he thought? !
For a moment, Tang Chen's breathing became extremely rapid, and he waited for Li Zimu's next words with an extremely complicated mood.
The blush on the latter's face was even worse at this time. He buried his head very low and murmured in a weak voice:
"Tang, Mr. Tang, I didn't know what I was thinking at the time, but I actually answered I don't know..."
"We are obviously just friends, I..."
"I, I'm very confused right now, I don't know how to tell you..."
"So, so, I wonder if you can use the same method again and help me again..."
Same method, help again.
It was obvious that Li Zimu wanted to use mind reading again to confirm whether she was really interested in Tang Chen.
If it were anyone else, Tang Chen would definitely agree immediately.
But when the subject of the test was himself... he blurted out almost subconsciously:
"no!"
"..."
The word "No" echoed in the pavilion, which also made Li Zimu stunned.
But she quickly came to her senses and whispered:
"Mr. Tang, I'm sorry, I didn't consider your feelings."
"Just treat what I just said as if I never said it, and I won't mention it again in the future."
"Yes, I'm sorry, I'm going back first..."
After sincerely apologizing, Li Zimu stood up in a panic and tried to escape.
But the next moment, Tang Chen suddenly stopped her.
"wait wait wait."
"Miss Li, if you really want to try...then, then give it a try."
"This, this may be a good thing for me..."
"..."
It's also a good thing for me.
There is no doubt that Tang Chen wants to use the results of this mind reading to end the illusion in his heart that should not exist.
Li Zimu naturally understood this meaning. After a moment of silence, he bit his lips and persuaded Tang Chen:
"Mr. Tang, are you sure..."
"I am sure."
Tang Chen took a deep breath, as if he had finally made up his mind, and his voice no longer stuttered.
"Miss Li, don't worry about me, we have already guessed the result anyway, right?"
"..."
In the early morning, there is a single courtyard and a bamboo forest on the first day.
Poor people are thinner than clouds and water.
Without answering "yes" or "no", Li Zimu's eyes met with Tang Chen's, then he took half a step forward and stood in front of Tang Chen.
Different from the shyness when he just said "I like Mr. Chu", Li Zimu was very calm at this time.
"Well......"
He nodded and stretched his hands to comb his hair.
The tassels of the silver hairpin in her hair swayed slightly in the sunlight. She looked directly into Tang Chen's eyes, and then said softly in a tone that was not a question, but an almost statement:
"Master Tang."
"I like you."
