No Comparison

Qi Yuze wasn't a fan of watching TV shows or movies, but even then he was amused by the live-acting show that Liu Xinyu put on for him every time they met. Why couldn't she just act normal? Did she think he'd be impressed by her words? Yes, he was a bit surprised but he wasn't impressed!

"I have a suggestion for you," he said seriously looking at her.

Liu Xinyu blinked her eyes at him, eagerly waiting for him to speak.

"Try acting. If you can't find an entry point to the entertainment industry, I can use my connections for you."

"Aww! You'd do that for me. How sweet!" was Liu Xinyu's bizarre response. "I didn't know you were so helpful. And you are even thinking about me. Does that mean we are progressing? I think we are."

Seeing how she was still into this act, Qi Yuze felt quite tired. He felt tired of her too. She was really putting so much effort into this game. He did not even know why. He was certainly curious about this why though.

"No. I'm not helping you. I'm helping the entertainment industry which is clearly missing an actress like you. I think it'd be a shame if such a talented individual like you stayed obscure. Talent shouldn't be buried but should be flaunted." He looked very sincere as he spoke as if he really thought it was a shame to let a talent like her stay unknown. "It's our job as the youth of this country to help this country flourish in every industry. I think our entertainment industry can go far with the addition of you. This country needs a star like you."

"Sounds tempting," said Liu Xinyu as she tapped her cheek with her fingers. "But... This star is exclusively for you. This star's performance is also exclusively for you. Don't you feel special?"

Qi Yuze was momentarily speechless with nothing to say. Even though every word she said was a lie, he didn't know why he was still standing here listening to her lies. He couldn't understand it at all. 

"Why? Don't you think this star is exclusively for you? Think about it, I just said we seem to have an inevitable fate. Doesn't that also mean that this star is only here for you?" She even finished her words with a flirtatious wink thrown his way which actually made her look like a mischievous cutie. 

Looking at her glittering eyes, Qi Yuze was silent. 

"Don't be so silent. All you have to do is say yes, and this star will become all yours."

"Do you want me to recommend you a neurologist or maybe a psychologist?" asked Qi Yuze once he opened his mouth again.

"There is no need," replied Liu Xinyu carelessly. "I just had a checkup at the hospital. It's been confirmed that I only had a concussion and nothing else."

Qi Yuze also remembered that they first met in the hospital. Although he didn't know what illness she had at that time, he could tell now she must have had an accident. "If you had a concussion it means you hit your head somewhere. I suggest you go for another check-up because I think you lost some screws in your brain."

Liu Xinyu gasped dramatically, "I fell so hard for you that the screws came out? Oh my!" 

Qi Yuze opened his mouth to say something but what could he possibly say? Whatever he said, she had a retort for that which left him speechless. It seems he was no match for her in this game. Even if he had always had a silent personality and didn't like talking much, he had never felt that he was so bad at talking as much as he did right now. 

Either he was really bad at talking or she was too eloquent. Whichever was it, he was the one losing!

"You should really see a doctor," said Qi Yuze to her.

Liu Xinyu hummed and nodded her head in agreement, "I should. I need to see a heart doctor though. I need to know why my heart is beating so fast for you."

"Can't you just drop it?" he asked in exasperation. "Just for a minute. What exactly is even in your brain? So much nonsense?"

Liu Xinyu tapped her head as she asked, "Hey, brain! What do you have up there?"

Qi Yuze's lips twitched as he felt like he wanted to laugh right now but he suppressed this urge. He did not want to laugh at her performance which might act as a catalyst for her to become even more out of hand.

"I really have some doubts about your intelligence," said Qi Yuze feeling really worried about her intelligence right now.

Liu Xinyu laughed at that making Qi Yuze just look at her laughing. He had to say, this laughter sounded a lot brighter and more real than the whole of her existence that he had to face these days. She looked so young and carefree when she laughed. 

"Haven't you heard? IQ drops once you are in love," said Liu Xinyu. "Since I fell for you, I think my IQ fell too."

"So, you do agree that something is wrong with your brain."

"It's okay though. I don't mind. One only needs a heart to love, what am I gonna do with the brain?"

Qi Yuze told himself repeatedly that he needed to stay calm. She was a girl and he did not have a habit of arguing with girls. And certainly can't fight with a girl too. He should keep his manners. There was no need to let this girl get to him even though she was getting on his nerves very much, he had to control the urge to do something irreversible. 

"On a serious note, what exactly do you want from me? Why put so much effort into this?"

"What can I even be after?" asked Liu Xinyu. "What do you have that you can offer? I told you, it's a life-saving grace between us along with fate. I'm offering myself to repay the favor but you keep pulling back. Is it true that people don't value what they get easily? Am I coming too strong?"

"I don't believe you. I don't believe that just because of a life-saving grace, you are so intent on pushing into my life."

"If you keep putting such high walls around you, all I can do is push the walls down to find my way in. I don't like scaling the walls, I like pushing them down better."

Qi Yuze took a deep breath, "You are good at talking."

"Zeze, thanks for the compliment. Since you already have seen my shining points. How about sharing something about yourself? I asked about that Jiejie earlier. Won't you really tell me who she is?"

"Why does it matter who she is?"

"It matters who she is to you," insisted Liu Xinyu to play this roundabout game of hers with him even if it meant annoying him!

Feeling too tired, Qi Yuze finally gave in and said, "She is Nan Xing. She is the most important woman in my life. Happy with this answer?"

Of course, Liu Xinyu was not happy and even Qi Yuze could feel her eyes burning with rage when he said that. Although he didn't understand why she had such intense emotions because of a simple sentence, it didn't stop him from paying her a little more attention. 

Reigning in her emotions, Liu Xinyu still put a smile on her face to continue, "Then it seems I need to learn more about this love rival. I don't wanna lose."

"You and her?" asked Qi Yuze. "You must be joking if you think you can win against her."

"I don't like people comparing me to others."

"There is no comparison," were his ruthless and cruel words, without any emotions. He really believed what he just said was wholeheartedly a truth and there was no doubt about it. And this attitude of his only made Liu Xinyu more serious about this matter. Qi Yuze went inside and picked up a magazine. He brought it out and passed it to her saying, "Check the article of the page 15. You'll understand the gap between you and her. And why you can never be an opponent of her."
