Capítulo 364: Chapter 169 - I want to see my granddaughter-in-law for the New Year (Thanks to Cang Yue Cang League Leader)

Chen Yuan always wondered what it would have been like if he had never met Xia Xinyu.

Or, to put it another way, what would have happened if Xia Xinyu had already died when they met.

Leaving other things aside, just consider the romance aspect.

If Li Youyou had confessed her feelings to him, he probably would have outright rejected her.

After all, she was no different from the girls he had rejected in junior high—not that she was ugly or that her personality was especially awful, just that he felt no spark.

If it were Zhou Fu...

That would be harder to say.

But likely, the feeling wouldn't be there either.

Without Xia Xinyu, it's natural to think that Zhou Fu might slowly develop feelings for him...

However, there's also the consideration that Zhou Fu might not actually like him.

Perhaps her diligent payment of the Friend Fee was only because she needed a friend.
