Later, when Su Nanxing and Tang Ruoqing were chatting, they discussed this confusion.
"Do men get more clingy as they get older?" she asked. "Lu Beiyuan was okay before, but now he's getting older and even more clingy."
Tang Ruoqing clicked her tongue: "Well, this guy's pretty good at pretending. You wouldn't be able to tell usually. Is he really this clingy in private?"
"Is Ying Luoyu like this too?"
Tang Ruoqing said, "He's alright, mainly because he's busier than Lu Beiyuan."
Indeed, Ying Luoyu conducts research and often has to spend a lot of time in the lab, sometimes not coming out for half a month.
Not at all like Lu Beiyuan, who's so idle.
Tang Ruoqing also said, "Actually, we should be thankful. Even though we have our own careers, this society is still unfriendly towards women. There is a great chance for successful men to cheat, at least they haven't put us through those awful things."
