Chapter 1853: Three Choose One

This request was indeed a bit high, but Yang Zihao did not let the triplets down.

He ordered spicy crab, braised shrimp in oil, braised pork ribs, braised pork belly, garlic bok choy, and sliced potatoes with mushrooms, then returned the menu to the waiter and smiled to ask for their opinions.

"Three Miss Jians, are these dishes I ordered alright? If there is anything you are allergic to or don't like, we can change it immediately."

"No need."

"It's quite good."

"Mm."

The dishes he ordered perfectly matched the tastes of the three of them.

These dishes were ordered very well; they were all things they liked. To think there was someone in the world besides their parents who understood them so well—the three of them couldn't help but be moved.

Soon, the waiter brought the dishes, and the group chatted while eating.

They were surprised to discover that this Mr. Yang actually had some attainments in Architecture; although some points were not entirely accurate, the flaws did not obscure the merits.

He was able to attend to every single person.

The triplets could find common ground with him regarding their interests and hobbies. This meal was eaten quite happily. On the way back after the meal, the triplets were quieter than usual for the first time.

The three of them seemed to have something on their minds, but none of them found it easy to speak.

This feeling was strange and very awkward. As they neared their residence, Taotao finally couldn't help but be the first to speak: "I like this Yang Zihao, what about you two?"

Youyou and Mengmeng said: "Me too."

The three of them fell into silence again, both feeling troubled.

Since all three liked him, it would have been better if none of them did; this was even more difficult.

There was only one man, but there were three sisters; how were they to divide him?

There had to be a result.

If this were just an ordinary good thing, letting it go wouldn't be a big deal, but this was a man all three of them liked; if they let him go, they might never come across him again!

The triplets didn't sleep well that night, lying in bed lost in thought.

Tossing and turning like a pancake all night, the next day the three of them finally thought of a good method.

This method was to hand the decision-making power to Yang Zihao and let him choose; whoever he chose would get along well with him, and if they weren't chosen, it was no big deal—they would just find someone else.

The triplets were all straightforward in nature; once they decided on something, they wouldn't regret it, nor would they drag their feet.

With the method in hand, the remaining matters didn't seem difficult.

When the four of them met again, the triplets said frankly: "Yang Zihao, the three of us all like you. Now the initiative is in your hands. See which one of us you like, and we will be together. You choose one."

Yang Zihao shook his head: "I cannot do that."

The three widened their eyes and said with dissatisfaction: "What do you mean? You didn't take a liking to any of us three?"

"You don't want to enjoy the blessings of all, occupying all three of us, do you? Don't dream; it's absolutely impossible."

"Exactly."

Yang Zihao said: "No, you misunderstood my meaning. I mean that all three of you are excellent, and it is my honor to be liked by you, but I cannot make you three sisters feel troubled because of myself."

"I cannot choose you. You are girls, and the decision-making power should be in your hands; it is you who should choose me."

Was there still a need to choose?

Just a moment ago, the triplets had already clearly expressed that all three of them had taken a liking to him.

But speaking this way made the triplets feel very comfortable; they felt valued, and the feeling of being valued and respected was very good.

Although the three of them were forthright, they were still girls, and they wanted everything that girls should have.

Now, the ball was kicked back into the triplets' court, so the three of them began to discuss.

Finally, they reached a result: the three of them would date Yang Zihao in turns, and after a few times, they would let him decide who to choose.

If someone among the three of them voluntarily withdrew during these dates, that would be best; if no one wanted to withdraw, then Yang Zihao would have to choose.

He appeared very troubled, but he still agreed.

The triplets basically each met with him once. After three times, the four of them sat at the same table again. No one among the triplets had voluntarily withdrawn, and now the initiative was back with Yang Zihao.

Youyou: "If you like someone, just say it, no need to be embarrassed."

Taotao: "Don't worry, no matter which one of us three you choose, the other two will accept the loss."

Mengmeng: "That's right."

The triplets' attitude clearly exceeded Yang Zihao's expectations.

He thought that after spending time with him a few times, the triplets should have been fighting over him!

After all, he had experience; it had always been like that in the past, but these three girls in front of him were different from other girls.

His brain turned quickly; although it was unexpected, he didn't show it at all.

He pointed at Taotao and smiled: "I choose her!"

Youyou:...

Mengmeng:...

Even Taotao was stunned.

None of the triplets had expected that Yang Zihao would actually choose Taotao!

The triplets each had their own characteristics; although they all had forthright personalities, Taotao was the girl who was least like a girl.

Supposedly, this type of personality had the least appeal to men, but Yang Zihao had chosen Taotao.

Youyou and Mengmeng quickly expressed that they accepted the loss and wished for the two of them to be happy together and last a long time!

Taotao was the last to react. She sat down beside Yang Zihao in a carefree manner and reached out to drape her arm over his shoulder: "You chose me, so from now on you are my person. Don't worry, I will treat you well."

Originally, it should have been like this; Yang Zihao had chosen Taotao, so there should no longer be anything for Youyou and Mengmeng.

But in the afternoon, Youyou received a call from Yang Zihao: "Youyou, can you come out? I have something I want to say to you alone."

Youyou agreed: "Okay."

"Um... could you not tell the two of them? I think this is a matter between the two of us; there's no need for them to know."

Youyou hesitated for a second, then readily agreed: "Sure, no problem."

The two met in private, and Yang Zihao handed her a bouquet of fiery red roses, saying to Youyou: "Youyou, the person I like is you, but Taotao... you know what your sister is like, so choosing her was a matter of necessity. You understand me, right?"

Youyou: "I don't understand. Since you like me, why did you choose Taotao?"

Yang Zihao:...

He had never seen a woman so oblivious to romance—no, wait, he had; the person he had just chosen that morning was even more oblivious!

But that didn't matter; in any case, his purpose in getting close to them wasn't to talk about love.

Yang Zihao put on a pained expression and said righteously: "Among the three of you, Taotao is the one who has the hardest time finding a boyfriend. I also know that the three of you sisters are very close, and as the eldest sister, you take great care of your two younger sisters, so I chose Taotao to put your mind at ease, so that Taotao would have someone..."

"But I regret it now. I've realized that the person I love most is you. The affection I have for Taotao is the kind a brother has for a sister, not love."

Youyou: "Fine, let's go and make it clear to Taotao."

But she was stopped by the man.

"No, you can't go tell her now. If you tell her now, won't she overthink it and feel like you're seducing me..."

Yang Zihao thought he was subtly sowing discord between Youyou and Taotao.
