Chapter 149: Cui Luoheng's Apology

After dinner in the evening, Cui Luoheng knocked on Su Bai's door. When Su Bai opened the door, he looked at him eagerly, opened his mouth, and finally called out, "Xiao Bai."

Su Bai raised an eyebrow upon seeing Cui Luoheng. This time, he didn't immediately let him in but asked, "What's up?"

Seeing that Su Bai didn't let him in as usual, Cui Luoheng also realized that Su Bai was indeed upset.

No matter how you looked at it, Su Bai had always taken great care of him. Whether it was his initial taste problem or issues during training, Su Bai had been very dedicated in helping him. When he had used the excuse of having poor mental resilience, Su Bai had genuinely consoled and guided him.

But now, after going in circles, it turned out that the claim of poor mental resilience was just a smokescreen.

Cui Luoheng had forgotten when he had started instinctively wanting to get closer to Su Bai, even if it was just to exchange a few words.

He had never considered matters of the heart from childhood to adulthood. Or rather, in the environment of a sports school and track and field team, his natural talent was good, and he wanted to achieve better results. So from his youth to the present, his mind had always been focused on training.

Moreover, before he met Su Bai, he had never had a proper meal. He trained tirelessly every day, and his taste buds were troubled, to the point that he felt like his whole body was covered in thorns. He was constantly irritable. In that state, he couldn't possibly have had the mindset for anything else.

Until he met Su Bai.

The day Su Bai took over the kitchen was the most enjoyable day he had ever had since joining the S Province Track and Field Team. He had enjoyed his meal so much that he even went against his usual character and approached when Qiu Wen asked about supper.

After that, Su Bai pulled him out of his emotional low and helped him find his direction and hope on the 110-meter track, which had been buried under self-blame and heavy pressure.

After that, he followed Su Bai step by step, moving from the S Province Track and Field Team to the national team, and gradually stepping onto the stage of the Asian Games and Asian Championships.

While he was growing, he didn't realize when his feelings for Su Bai began to change.

He had never thought about what was different about his feelings for Su Bai. It was an unconscious desire to get closer. He started using the lame excuse of "poor mental resilience" to talk to Su Bai more and receive a different kind of care. He used this excuse without stopping, solely focusing on using it to talk to Su Bai.

Standing in front of Su Bai's door, Cui Luoheng analyzed these thoughts in his mind without expression. He hadn't thought about this direction before. Maybe he hadn't thought of it, or maybe he didn't dare to.

It wasn't until Wang Shen asked him that question – 【Why do you always want to be near Xiao Bai?】 – that he finally recognized his feelings. He liked Su Bai.

Even after realizing this, Cui Luoheng couldn't overcome his inability to express himself. He could only silently gaze at Su Bai, his tall stature of over 1.9 meters, looking a bit helpless and distressed with his head down.

Seeing Cui Luoheng like this, Su Bai sighed and let him into the room. Cui Luoheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately followed.

If he had a tail, it would probably be wagging right now.
