Chapter 3174 A Gentleman

Qin Xiu opened the car door and got in. Then, he closed the car door. His actions were fast and clean.

As the door closed with a bang, it seemed that the world outside and inside were different.

From then on, they would say goodbye to each other and have no worries.

‘Goodbye, Ye Jian.’

At this moment, Ambassador Qin Dingkang already knew the result without asking. However, there were some things he had to remind Qin Xiu of. “Qin Xiu, even if you’ve been rejected, you have to maintain your gentlemanly demeanor. You have to achieve your goals. You have to know how to give up and bear with the loss. You also have to know how to keep your distance and not cause trouble for others.

“Qin Xiu, these are the things you have to do after you’ve been rejected. Do you understand?”

Even if he was rejected, he mustn’t lose his manly demeanor. Qin Xiu retracted his gaze and pursed his lips. Then, he smiled calmly and said, “Dad, I still have this basic demeanor.

“She has someone she likes. As her friend, I naturally give her my blessings. I won’t hate her because of my own desires, and I won’t deliberately destroy her relationship with another man.

“I still have my morals.

“You don’t have to worry about me. I’ve already told Ye Jian that I won’t disturb her in the future, let alone get close to her. We’ll maintain a polite relationship. When we meet, we’ll nod and smile. We’ll greet each other before turning around and walking away. I’ll never do something so immoral as snatching someone’s girlfriend.”

As his father, Ambassador Qin Dingkang was very satisfied with his answer. “That’s right. A man should be like this. He has to know when to let go. He has to endure such things.”

As expected of Qin Dingkang’s son. Even though he was rejected, he still acted like a gentleman.

Facing his father’s praise, Qin Xiu only smiled slightly. Only from his clenched fists could one know how depressed he was after being rejected.

This was his first time confessing, and he had mustered all his courage to do it. He was afraid that he would stutter when confessed, so he calmed himself down and said it in one breath. He had to maintain his composure now, but he was still a little depressed and frustrated.

But so what?

Ye Jian didn’t have to accept his confession.

It was normal for Ye Jian to reject his confession.

She had a boyfriend. His bottom line would never allow him to destroy her relationship with her boyfriend to achieve his goal. Moreover, with Ye Jian’s relationship with… Xia Jinyuan was not something he could destroy.

Hence, as a human, he needed to be tactful and maintain his gentlemanly demeanor. Even though he was rejected, he had to let go. He had to maintain a proper distance.

Qin Dingkang’s gaze swept past his clenched fists. His gaze was calm, and he didn’t persuade him anymore.

Qin Xiu knew his bottom line and knew that he had to achieve his goals. He also knew how to control himself. Since he started it, he had to end it himself. No one could interfere.

The black sedan drove away slowly. G3—Yin Rong—who was standing not far away, said in surprise, “Isn’t that the diplomat, Qin Xiu? Why is he in school?”

“Did the diplomat come from the sports ground? Did he get up for a walk in the middle of winter?” V8—Yang Xulin—was even more surprised. “He woke up earlier than us!”
He woke up earlier than them because he was looking for someone he shouldn’t be looking for.

If it was J5, he would immediately know what was going on. He was the only comrade who knew that Qin Xiu liked Ye Jian.

Xia Jinyuan understood and said calmly, “He’s a special guest invited by the school to watch the gala, while you guys came uninvited.”

Was this an issue of challenge? These words were too unacceptable. Were they really good comrades?
