Li Huanhuan, 26 years old, is just a passerby in a book. She meets the protagonist at a blind date.
Qin Shi is the male protagonist of the book—a genius esports player, super popular, broad...
Chapter 1 Chapter 1 I don’t want to go on a blind date!
Heart as calm as water: "Hey, hello~ Auntie asked me to date you, get married and be friends with you, ding ding! [Puppy holding a flower].jpg"
Heart as calm as water: "I hope to have the opportunity to get to know you better."
Li Huanhuan felt suffocated when he saw the message on the mobile phone screen.
She swallowed and wanted to delete this person immediately, but when she thought of her mother's angry face, she finally suppressed her embarrassment and typed two words: "Hello."
0.0: "Blind dates are just a way to get to know each other. I think we should get to know each other first."
Heart as calm as water: "Yes, that's what I mean."
Heart as calm as water: "I have low emotional intelligence and I can't coax people. I just want to find someone to marry and live a good life with."
Li Huanhuan was once again choked by the other party's reply.
I can feel this terrible embarrassment even through the screen. The soles of my feet are almost digging out a two-bedroom apartment. Therefore, Li still fantasized about ending this online blind date on WeChat quickly.
0.0: "Excuse me, what kind of marriage partner do you think you should have?"
Heart as calm as water: "I think that's just you. I heard that you're more of a homebody and don't like going out. I think those who don't like going out are all good girls."
0.0: "?"
Heart as calm as water: "Just tell me, am I feeling right?"
"Sorry, I'm very short in real life and weigh more than 100 pounds. I also like handsome guys who are 1.85 meters tall." Li Huanhuan replied expressionlessly.
Jing Ru Shui: "Height is not important. I want someone who is down-to-earth and can live a good life. As long as he is not too ugly, it's fine. In fact, most men don't care much about height."
Li Huanhuan was almost exhausted: "I am ugly in person."
Heart as calm as water: "An ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law. In my imagination, you are graceful, beautiful and confident."
Li Huanhuan raised his hand and held his forehead.
Why can’t I understand?
Heart as calm as water: "I heard you are in City C, then your house..."
Since he couldn't understand the euphemism, Li Huanhuan decided to be direct: "I'm sorry, I don't think we are suitable. I'm really sorry for wasting your time."
After the message was sent, the other party finally calmed down.
Phew~
Li Huanhuan threw his phone onto the sofa and sighed while leaning against the pillow.
Her name is Li Huanhuan, female, 26 years old. When she woke up in the morning of her 20th birthday, she found that the world she was in was a book. The book tells the passionate and exciting story of Qin Shi, a talented e-sports player, who wins one e-sports game after another with his extraordinary talent and strength, and finally becomes the world's number one.
Qin Shi is the protagonist of the book, and she, Li Huanhuan, has neither a special identity nor is she involved in the main storyline. She is just an NPC filling the background of the book, commonly known as "Passerby A".
When he first learned the truth, Li Huanhuan felt a little depressed, and wondered whether he should change his destiny by relying on the plot in the book he knew.
But she is a homebody and lazy, and has no interest in socializing or e-sports. He doesn't want to rely on "foreseeing the plot in advance" to deliberately get close to the protagonist Qin Shi and cling to Qin Shi's thigh, nor does he have the ambition to seize the protagonist's opportunity and gain something for nothing by awakening.
Because he doesn't like socializing, Li Huanhuan chose to become a video blogger at home after graduation. At first, she would follow the protagonist’s news online and see him transform from a fledgling teenage talent to a sought-after professional player. But as time went on, she clicked on the news less and less. Gradually, even if I occasionally came across news related to Qin Shi, I would no longer pay attention to it.
Currently, Li Huanhuan is 26 years old and her video account has more than 500,000 followers. What happened on the morning of her 20th birthday was getting further and further away from her. Things like "protagonist", "passerby" and "world in the book" gradually faded from her life, and her life returned to normal. When I think of it occasionally, it seems like a lifetime ago, as if it was just my own imagination.
She turned back into an ordinary person.
I am a blogger, I keep cats, I stay at home, I occasionally go out to meet up with friends, and I also go on blind dates which have become so frequent since I don’t know when.
Li Huanhuan was not quite able to accept this kind of marriage model, but her mother was in poor health and Li Huanhuan did not want to make her angry, so he had no choice but to compromise.
At this point, Li Huanhuan thought of the performance of male guest No. 79 [Calm as Water] which had just ended, and began to worry about how to end it next? [Heart as Calm as Water] was introduced by a distant relative from my hometown. Although we are not familiar with each other, the relative is an elder, so the reason for rejection needs to be tactful and not embarrassing.
Fortunately, Li Huanhuan is no longer a rookie in the blind date market. The 78 male guests before her have given her rich experience in dealing with people. She planned to use the strategy of "delay" again this time and admit her mistake only when her mother asked her about it. Based on past experience, my ears will be clean for at least the next week.
"Meow~" The cat's meow from above interrupted Li Huanhuan's thoughts.
She leaned on the sofa and looked up, and saw a long-haired cat with a snow-white body and thick, smooth fur. It had come to the top of the sofa back at some point, and its emerald-like green eyes looked at her quietly.
"Meow~" The clear and cold voice sounded again.
"Oh, Your Highness!"
Li Huanhuan immediately sat up and wanted to bury his head in the other's fluffy and soft hair and take a deep breath. Before she could touch it, the white cat nimbly jumped to the other end of the sofa, and its emerald-like eyes looked at her quietly.
"Got it, got it. I'll open the can for you right away." Li Huanhuan held his forehead with his hand, resignedly got up from the sofa, and walked towards the cabinet on the balcony where canned food and cat food were stored.
The cat followed her, wagging its fluffy tail.
The can is opened and His Majesty the Cat is enjoying his meal elegantly.
Li Huanhuan squatted beside it and took the opportunity to touch it twice. Feeling the soft cat hair brushing against his palm, a silly smile suddenly appeared on his face.
So cute~
I want to drown in your Highness's fur.
His Highness, who was having a meal, felt himself being touched. His head did not move, but his body dodged flexibly, and he made a warning sound of "Wow Wow Wow Wow" from his mouth.
"Okay, okay, just eat. I won't bother you anymore." Li Huanhuan withdrew his hand and said, supporting his chin.
"Ding-ling-ling, ding-ling-ling——"
At this time, Li Huanhuan's cell phone rang.
She picked it up and was stunned. It was her mother calling. Could she have known so quickly?
Li Huanhuan rubbed his face vigorously, and after the phone rang three times, he picked up the phone with a tragic look on his face: "Hello, Mom?"
Two years ago, my stepfather retired, and my mother followed him to the suburbs to grow vegetables, fish, and cultivate herself, leading a pastoral life. But even so, her mother can still control her life remotely through her mobile phone.
So you are asking about "a mind as calm as water"?
"Ah, well, I think..." Li Huanhuan skillfully used the method of deception, hesitating, cautious and humble.
After saying that, he held his breath and waited for the storm on the other end of the phone.
However, this time, the mother remained calm.
It was so calm that Li Huanhuan's heart started pounding. He had a bad feeling and wanted to hang up the phone immediately. Then the next second, I heard my mother say——
"A new blind date? The son of the aunt you square danced with, who is two years younger than me... We're meeting today... Hello? Hello?"
The call was hung up.
Buzz.
A WeChat message came: "My daughter, at 12:30 noon, at Zijinhua Restaurant on Xinhong Road, your aunt's son has already booked a table."
0.0: "No, I just finished dating one!"
Mother: "So we need to meet the new one. If the old one doesn't go, the new one won't come. Auntie's son is so handsome!"
0.0: "..."
Oh my god!
Li Huanhuan put his face into his knees.
After a while, he turned his head, put his face on his knees, and looked at His Highness the Cat squatting on the sofa, licking his fur and washing his face: "What should I do?"
His Highness the Cat gave her a cold look and continued to wash his face.
"I don't want to go out and I don't want to go on blind dates." Li Huanhuan fell on the sofa in frustration and pretended to be dead.
When she came to her senses, it was already 12 o'clock, less than 30 minutes until the agreed time! Li Huanhuan suddenly sat up from the sofa!
Just then her mother sent her a message, reminding her not to forget the time.
Li Huanhuan scratched his head in annoyance, but finally decided to go.
After all, she had already reached an agreement with her mother on the blind date.
The place was a bit far away, and Li Huanhuan didn't dare to delay any longer. He just grabbed a long black coat from the closet, wrapped himself in a scarf, and hurried out. It was too late to take the bus, so before entering the elevator, Li Huanhuan reluctantly called a car on the app. When he arrived at the gate of the community, the car just arrived, and Li Huanhuan quickly jumped on.
Mother: "【Red envelope】, please accept it."
Mother: "Are you leaving? Take a taxi."
Her mother guessed that she must have delayed leaving home until the last minute and would not have had time to take the bus, so she gave her a red envelope. Li Huanhuan sighed, sent a "momo" emoticon, and received the red envelope.
“I hope this isn’t another [Calm as Water].”
Li Huanhuan looked at the bus stop sign passing by outside the window and had no expectations for the upcoming meeting. At this time, she didn't know that her arranged life of a lazy stay-at-home would be disrupted by the next meeting.
Li Huanhuan arrived at the agreed location two minutes before 12:30.
Although she doesn't want to go on a blind date, she has a strong sense of time and doesn't like to be late. In the car, I kept my eyes on which door was nearest. After getting off, I grabbed my bag and ran all the way. When I reached the lawn in the green belt, I suddenly braked and stopped.
"No, which table number is it?" Li Huanhuan quickly took out his cell phone and sent a message to his mother.
At this moment, someone bumped into him from behind. Li Huanhuan staggered forward and his cell phone fell on the lawn. Just as she was about to squat down to pick it up, she heard an apologetic voice above her head: "Ah, sorry, auntie, are you okay?"
Li Huanhuan's body froze.
"Auntie, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to bump into you." The man kept apologizing.
"Huxun, are you so irritable again?"
At this time, someone came over and said, "Auntie, are you okay? Your cell phone..." The man bent down to help Li Huanhuan pick up the phone and handed it to her.
He is a boy with short hair, thick eyebrows, big eyes and a strong look.
When the boy's eyes met Li Huanhuan's, he was stunned for a moment. After a brief moment of surprise, he calmly changed the topic: "It turns out to be my sister. Sorry, are you okay?"
"Sister? Oh, I'm sorry, sister, I bumped into you accidentally." The red-haired man who bumped into someone apologized after being surprised.
Li Huanhuan pursed his lips, took the phone silently, and shook his head: "It's okay."
"Sister, do you know how to get to Zijinhua Restaurant?" asked the strong boy.
Zijinhua Restaurant?
Li Huanhuan paused, raised his hand and pointed forward: "Over there."
"Thank you." The boy smiled at her, then turned his head and waved to his companion not far away, "Xiao Xiao, the restaurant is over there, let's go."
When Li Huanhuan heard this, he subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice, and several people in the distance happened to turn around at this moment. Li Huanhuan stared at the back of a tall and slender boy in the crowd who was wearing a bright grey short down jacket. He always felt that the back looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.
But she didn't think much about it.
"Sister, are you really okay?" The red-haired man named Hu Xun turned his head and asked worriedly.
"It's okay." Li Huanhuan waved his hands awkwardly.
"Okay then, goodbye." Hu Xun quickly caught up with the group of people in front.
Li Huanhuan watched them enter the Zijinhua Restaurant in front.
ah? Dining room? !
Li was still fantasizing about his blind date and quickly picked up his phone, just in time his mother sent him the seat number. Li Huanhuan let out a breath and walked quickly towards the restaurant in front.
