Chapter 76 That Dumbass
[Team Captain] Blooming Pear Tree: Do you know that dumbass?
Upon seeing Bluegreen-Clad’s question, Blooming Pear Tree immediately thought of the guy that he hated and anxiously asked Bluegreen-Clad whether Xiaoguang met Su Han again. If Bluegreen-Clad had not stopped him in time, he would have called Zheng Xiaoguang immediately.
Upon seeing Blooming Pear Tree’s reaction, Bluegreen-Clad had a rough idea of what had happened between Zheng Xiaoguang and Su Han before Blooming Pear Tree told him anything.
[Team] Bluegreen-Clad: Xiaoguang told me that Su Han is her ex-boyfriend.
[Team Captain] Blooming Pear Tree: Yes.
[Team] Bluegreen-Clad: What happened to them?
[Team Captain] Blooming Pear Tree: What happened? What else could happen? You know this guy. Don’t you know what kind of person he is?
Bluegreen-Clad thought that Su Han was a nice man but had a fatal weakness.
[Team] Bluegreen-Clad: Sometimes, he’s really gullible.
“He was easily deluded by Venus before,” thought Bluegreen-Clad.
[Team Captain] Blooming Pear Tree: Huh, he’s such a push-over, but everyone considers him to be nice. They must’ve told you, “Su Han’s ex-girlfriend must be a really petty, ridiculous and unreasonable girl. Otherwise, how could a nice guy like him break up with her?”
Upon seeing that, Bluegreen-Clad immediately thought of Han Meimei’s words and remained silent.
[Team Captain] Blooming Pear Tree: Hehe, you don’t need to tell me. I know it. But you’ve been married to her for such a long time. Don’t you know what kind of person she is? Is she a selfish and overbearing girl?
[Team] Bluegreen-Clad: No, she is not.
Bluegreen-Clad was lost in thought for a while. “Xiaoguang never demands anything from me except for asking me to stop playing together with Venus when she came to visit me in A City. She just didn’t want to play with this scheming girl. It was just a small request, but she still failed to stick it out.
“When we fell out with Son of Heaven, she persuaded me to bring Venus back to the team. She’s always considerate and willing to put up with anything to avoid ruining my friendship with my regular teammates.
“If I hadn’t exposed Venus’ secrets, she would’ve consented to Never Deeply Attached’s request and agreed to let Venus join the team again.
“How can such a girl be unreasonable? Sometimes, I feel that she dare not ask me to do anything. She just doesn’t want to make things difficult for me at all.”
[Team Captain] Blooming Pear Tree: Yes, you’re right. But that dumbass makes everyone believe that she’s a petty and selfish girl.
Blooming Pear Tree had to admit that Su Han treated everyone nicely, but he thought that Su Han treated Xiaoguang exceptionally cruelly. Su Han had put all the blame on Xiaoguang and made her feel guilty when they broke up.
As such, Xiaoguang chose to quit the game. She did not want this game to remind her of Su Han. More importantly, she was fed up with the players in the game who kept telling her that she was wrong.
[Team Captain] Blooming Pear Tree: Think about it. A girl was disappointed in love and got reproached by everyone. Those people did not know how much she sacrificed to maintain her relationship with Su Han. She nearly turned all her family and friends against herself.
[Team] Bluegreen-Clad: Turned all her family and friends against herself?
[Team Captain] Blooming Pear Tree: Yes. Her parents used to strongly disapprove of their relationship. Xiaoguang worked hard to persuade them to trust Su Han. But in the end, that jerk broke up with her because his parents disapproved of her.
Blooming Pear Tree could not help but sigh inwardly, “What a ridiculous thing.”
[Team] Bluegreen-Clad: Why did Su Han’s parents disapprove of her? Is it just because they met in an online game?
[Team Captain] Blooming Pear Tree: That was what Su Han said. But you know what. His parents never met Xiaoguang, not even once. If Xiaoguang had really forced him to do something beyond his ability, it would’ve been alright for her to take the blame. I just hated this cowardly guy who dared not to strive for his love. If he could not give her any confidence, how could she feel secure? Because of this, they fell out a lot and eventually broke up.
Blooming Pear Tree thought for a while. He discovered that he had seldom met a guy like Su Han. When this guy loved some girl, he was so kind and nice. When he stopped loving this girl, he acted so ruthlessly. He had even broken up with Zheng Xiaoguang by texting her.
When Blooming Pear Tree came to see Zheng Xiaoguang in the hospital, Zheng Xiaoguang advised him not to pester Su Han. Nevertheless, upon seeing her plastered foot, he was filled with indignation.
After leaving the hospital, he left R City for S City. To his surprise, when he found Su Han, he discovered that he was on a blind date.
Blooming Pear Tree did not care about what Su Han’s date looked like. He was furious and just wanted to beat Su Han up on the spot. Upon thinking Zheng Xiaoguang’s words, he managed to suppress the urge.
After sending his date away, Su Han asked, “Why are you here, big brother?” He still habitually referred to Blooming Pear Tree as big brother like Zheng Xiaoguang.
Blooming Pear Tree felt disgusted upon hearing that and said, “Now that you’ve broken up with Xiaoguang, you should stop calling me big brother.”
Su Han felt somewhat helpless and said, “Although Xiaoguang and I have broken up, I still treat you as my friend.”
“Save it. I don’t want to be your big brother,” Blooming Pear Tree snorted coldly and added, “I thought that you might still feel sad at this moment. I never expected you to go on a date and find another girlfriend so quickly. Well, this is not a big deal for a guy, but you’ve recovered too fast from a broken relationship.”
While saying this, he thought, “When I got angry and kept scolding Su Han, Zheng Xiaoguang always spoke for him. Most people will begin to despise their ex partners after breaking up, but she never accused Su Han of abandoning her. She just didn’t want to speak ill of the man that she used to love.
“She would rather believe that Su Han left her just because of his parents and felt sad about their broken relationship too. She would even pity him for that. She tried her best to whitewash him to show her respect for their past.
“But this Su Han, he doesn’t feel sad at all. He even goes on a date shortly after he breaks up with Xiaoguang. What a heartless man.”
Upon hearing Blooming Pear Tree’s words, Su Han did not seem to be embarrassed. Instead, he just said, in a matter-of-fact tone, “A man my age should get married, and my parents hope that I can find a wife as soon as possible.”
Blooming Pear Tree pretended to have just realized something and said, “Yeah, yeah. You’re a filial son of your parents. How do I forget that? Of course, you’ll do whatever they want, such as abandoning your girlfriend who treats you sincerely and going on a blind date they arranged for you.”
Su Han remained calm while being ridiculed by Blooming Pear Tree. After a moment of silence, he asked, “Is, Is she alright now?”
“Wow, do you still care about her? I used to think that you would pretend that you’ve never known her before!” Blooming Pear Tree looked at him and continued, “Don’t you know whether she is alright?She has a plastered foot now. Do you think she’s alright?”
Su Han signed. “Big brother, no I mean… Please take care of her. Thank you.”
Blooming Pear Tree raised his eyebrows and said, “She’s my sister. Of course I’ll take care of her.”
Su Han turned his face to look at the hustling crowd on the street and added, “And… ask her to forget about me. We’re just not suitable for each other.”
Upon hearing this, Blooming Pear Tree could not control his emotions anymore. He clenched his fists and asked, “Not suitable? Why didn’t you think so when you asked me to help you chasing after her? Why didn’t you think so when you visited her parents?”
In the meantime, he could not help but mock inwardly, “When everyone knows your relationship, you think that you’re not suitable for each other.”
Su Han lowered his head as he said, “It was really thoughtless of me to start this relationship.”
Blooming Pear Tree was stunned upon hearing that. He wondered, “What? Is this what he thinks? Does he really think that he should not take any blame for the breakdown of his relationship with Xiaoguang?”
Blooming Pear Tree got furious. He smiled bleakly and asked, “So when you thought it through, you just sent her a text message to break up with her, didn’t you? Now her foot is broken, and you refuse to show any concern for her. What a heartless man you are. Have you ever thought for her?”
Su Han frowned and said, “I did this for her sake. My mother said that if I went to see her, we would get into trouble.”
“What trouble? Is he saying that his mother is worried that Xiaoguang would refuse to let him go and keep pestering him?” Blooming Pear Tree thought to himself.
He gnashed his teeth and said, “What an obedient son you are. You just believe whatever your mother says. You know Xiaoguang. Do you think that she’s an unreasonable girl?”
Su Han looked up at Blooming Pear Tree with a blank expression on his face.
Upon seeing that, Blooming Pear Tree felt even more irritated and asked, “Do you think that your mother knows her better than you do? You’ve known her for such a long time.”
Su Han thought about it carefully and then said helplessly, “I think that my mother really understands what girls think better than I do.”
These words made Blooming Pear Tree’s anger come to a boil. In the past, he had considered Su Han a great guy, as he was gentle, honest and even a little bookish. He had never expected him to be such a malleable person and regretted misjudging him.
“It seems that you’re determined to be a ‘dutiful’ son and have nothing to say to an unrestrained person like me. I wish you all the best for your future life, filial son of your parents.” While saying this, Blooming Pear Tree felt relieved and thought, “Fortunately, Xiaoguang and this guy broke up. How can she tolerate such a guy? If she heard him saying these things by herself, she would be heartbroken.”
“I wish all the very best for her future life too,” Su Han pretended not to understand Blooming Pear Tree’s irony and said. “Can you do me a favor? Find a guy who’s really suitable for her. As long as she starts a new relationship, she’ll quickly get over me.”
Blooming Pear Tree thought, “What? Is he worried that Xiaoguang will pester him if she can’t find another boyfriend quickly?”
He sneered coldly and said, “Don’t worry. If she can’t get over you, I’ll beat her up to make her forget about you. I won’t allow her to pester you in the future. And I’ll find a good guy for her. You know what. I think that you don’t deserve her at all. You don’t even deserve to be remembered by her.”
