Yunli waved his hands and explained dryly: "You can't get a taxi, I'll help you..."

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Yunli said angrily: "Don't think I have other intentions."

After hearing her words, Fu Shizhe realized that it was already half past eight in the evening.

Looking at Yunli, she was wearing light makeup, tall, and her red cheeks from the cold weakened the heroic spirit of her eyebrows and eyes, making her look like an undergraduate who had not yet graduated. Thinking back to the time when I saw her being approached by a man in the building just now, it was reasonable.

The phone vibrated and Fu Shi lowered his head. The app showed that a driver had accepted the order and was two kilometers away from him, expected to arrive in five minutes.

I glanced at Yunli’s phone screen and it still showed “Summoning driver”.

Noticing his gaze, Yunli raised the screen towards him and said, "Maybe there are fewer cars now, so I haven't gotten one yet. Have you gotten one over there?"

“…”

Fu Shi stared at the screen of his mobile phone and tapped a few times casually.

He looked up and put his phone back into his pocket: "I can't get a taxi."

Yun Li looked down at the time and said, "How about... I take you there? I'll drive you back in just a dozen minutes."

"It's very late now. For both public and private reasons, I hope you go back earlier." Yun Li's voice was not loud. She was afraid of being rejected again, so she didn't look directly at Fu Shi Ze when she said this.

Fu Shi looked at her quietly and did not refuse: "Yes."

She had been prepared to be rejected, but he was relieved. Yunli felt much better instantly. She walked in front and said, "The car is here."

Yunli drove. The hotel is a 20-minute drive from Western University of Science and Technology. After getting on the highway and exiting the ramp, it is another 3,000 meters away.

Remembering the purpose of his trip, Yunli asked, "Did you bring VR equipment this time?"

Fu Shi responded with a nasal tone.

Yunli said in a businesslike manner: "I want to include my brother in the promotional video I made for EAW. He is quite popular. Can I borrow the equipment tomorrow?"

She added in a relaxed tone, "Just give it to me when I drop you off later. I'll take you to Western University of Science and Technology the day after tomorrow. You don't have to come tomorrow."

Fu Shizhe: "You only brought a full-body tracking device, and you don't know how to operate it."

Just as they were near the hotel, Yunli focused his attention on the parking spaces on both sides and hurriedly replied, "Forget it, see you on Monday."

“…”

After unlocking the car, she turned to look at Fu Shi Ze. He was leaning quietly against the seat, the shadow of the roadside lamppost falling on his face.

"What time tomorrow?"

"Ah?" Yun Li was a little slow to react, and then quickly changed the subject: "Is ten o'clock okay? I can pick you up at Xinguang Community, or you can tell me when you get there."

Fu Shi tilted his head and said without much thought: "I will go there myself."

…

As soon as she entered the house, Yunli heard Duidui scratching the door frantically in Yunye's room. She knocked on the door, but Yunye didn't answer, and the door was locked.

Yunli lay down on the bed, thinking about what happened today.

It seems that he would not agree to meet her in private; but if it is related to work, he should not be opposed to meeting her.

And as the man with glasses said, Fu Shize has dropped out of school.

This word was very distant to Yunli, as he always felt it belonged to those who were not doing well in their studies or were in poor health and needed to stay at home to rest. However, Fu Shi also found a job at EAW.

I don’t know what happened to him before that made him so withdrawn and taciturn.

Yunli's thoughts were not occupied by this matter for too long. She took it for granted that as long as he wanted, he could regain all the glory.

Hearing the sound of the TV, Yunli went to the living room to pour some water. Yunye lay on the sofa, propped up his face and stared at the TV intently: "I stayed at home all day."

Yunli: “Oh.”

Yunye didn't say anything.

Yunli went back to her room. After a while, she came out again, as if she remembered something. She said in disbelief, "You're not saying that I didn't accompany you."

Yunye: “…”

Yunye said with a sour face: "No."

"Oh, that's good."

“…”

Yunli walked to the sofa and sat down. "I borrowed a VR from a colleague today. He will bring it over tomorrow for you to play with."

"What kind?" Yunye's expression became a little better. "Specially lent to me?"

Yunli was too lazy to explain to him: "It's quite fun anyway."

The next day, Yang Fang and Yun Yongchang were not at home. Yun Li got up at seven o'clock to clean the house and went out to buy some fresh strawberries.

Yunye usually gets up late on Sundays. Yunli knocked on his door: "Yunye, Yunye."

Boom boom boom.

No response.

Boom boom boom.

Yunli continued to knock: "Yunye, Yunye."

Only after hearing a response from inside did she open the door and go in.

Yunye squinted his eyes and lay on his side, with the quilt between his legs. His soft hair was all puffed up by static electricity. He looked at Yunli blankly: "What are you doing?"

Yunli picked up the broom and started sweeping the floor, saying, "You got up pretty early. It's only a little after seven."

“…”

Yunye frowned: "Who knocked on my door just now?"

Yunli said confidently, "Me!" He also frowned, "Why are you asking this?"

“…”

Yunye fell back to sleep and shouted, "Please."

"Next time just come in and kill me."

Yun Li curled the corners of his lips and pulled Yun Ye's quilt: "My colleague will be here soon, you should get up and tidy yourself up, and remember to be polite later."

Yunye covered his head with a pillow, looking unhappy: "Yunli, is your colleague a man or a woman?"

Yunli paused while sweeping the floor and asked, "Why are you asking this?"

"If it's a man, please ask him to take you in quickly." Yun Ye was woken up and was in a bad mood. "If it really doesn't work, a woman will do."

After breakfast, Yunli put on a thick coat and went downstairs to throw away the garbage. After throwing the garbage into the trash can, Yunli washed his hands in the sink next to him and saw a person sitting in the pavilion from a distance.

Yunli recognized him immediately and walked over with shuffling steps. She put her hands in her coat pockets and said, "Fu Shi Ze."

Fu Shi looked up at her.

"Why don't you go upstairs? It's so cold outside." Yun Li said, "Also, didn't you just catch a cold?"

Fu Shize: "It's not ten o'clock yet."

"......"

"You can have a smoke."

“…”

Yunli: "Just follow me up first, it's okay."

After entering the room, Yunli took a pair of slippers for Fu Shizhe to change into and discussed with him the place where they would play games later.

Hearing the noise, Yunye opened the door, and Duidui rushed towards Fu Shizhe, wagging his tail and circling in front of him. Fu Shizhe was originally picking up equipment, and seeing this, he patted Duidui's head.

Looking at the extra person and dog in the living room, Yunli looked at Duidui, then at Yunye, and said, "Your reactions are quite consistent."

Yunye: “…”

Yunye was wearing a home knitted long-sleeved shirt and casual pants, and was a little embarrassed. "Hello, brother, I'm Yunye."

Fu Shizhe stood up and responded: "Hello, I'm Fu Shizhe."

"Sister..." Yunye was stunned for a moment, stood there in a daze, raised his hands in the air and shouted: "Isn't this the person in the photo that you posted on the wall in high school?"

"Why did you chase after so many people—"

At the same time, Yunli's voice suddenly became louder: "Yunye!!!"

Yunye also realized that he had spoken without thinking. He scratched his head, walked to the sofa and sat down. Duidui also moved from Fu Shize's feet to Yunye.

The atmosphere was solemn for a while.

"You got the wrong person." Fu Shizhe spoke first, "I've only known her for three months."

Noticing Yun Li's unfriendly look, Yun Ye shrank his shoulders. In order to make up for his mistake, he held his breath and took the initiative to explain: "I'm sorry, I think I recognized the wrong person. When I look closely, they are completely different."

Yunli's gaze swept across like a blade.

"And my sister has never pursued anyone." Yunye vowed.

“…”

Seeing that Yun Li was still unhappy, Yun Ye did not dare to stay any longer. He sat on the sofa for a while, then stood up and said, "I'll get you a glass of water."

Thinking that Yunye was a waste, Yunli followed him into the kitchen and tried to chase him away.

Yunli: "Give it to me, go back to your room, you have nothing to do here."

Yunye lowered his voice and asked, "Is this my future brother-in-law?"

Yun Li was furious and slapped Yun Ye: "What nonsense are you talking about? Get out of here."

Yunye had no choice but to give up, walked out of the kitchen dejectedly and returned to his room.

Passing the living room, he waved to Fu Shize and said, "Brother, I'm going back to my room to study first."

Fu Shi nodded.

After Yunye returned to the room, Fu Shi took out the infrared recorder and set it up, then took out the two VR devices. Just as he was about to ask Yunli for the wifi and password, the second thing that popped up was "Yunye, don't connect."

“…”

"Wifi password."

Yunli: "The password is the pinyin of the wifi name, all lowercase."

Yunli saw him occasionally put his hand on his abdomen and asked hesitantly, "Have you had breakfast?"

Fu Shi just hummed in response.

After about ten minutes, Fu Shi finished installing the equipment and sat back on the sofa. Noticing a group photo on the TV table, he walked over to take a look. It should be Yun Li in high school, hugging Yun Ye with a youthful smile.

Only when Yunli called him did he come to his senses and sit back on the sofa.

There was a piece of toast and a cup of coffee on the coffee table. He didn't hesitate and took two bites slowly.

Seeing that he didn't refuse, Yun Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He raised his eyes to look at her and asked casually, "What photo?"

“…”

At this moment, Yunli just wanted to pin Yunye down and beat him up.

"Don't know about it." Yunli said in a low voice, and rushed to the refrigerator to take out strawberries, his mind full of confusion.

Yunli plucked the grass off the strawberries in frustration, and threw them into the trash can one by one as if they were Yunye's. After washing them, he put them on a plate and placed them in front of Fu Shizhe.

"I just washed it. Eat some."

Fu Shi pushed the plate away and said, "I don't want to eat anymore."

“…”

His expression was the same as usual, but his calm eyes were somewhat cold.

He was obviously willing to eat the breakfast she prepared just now.

Seeing this, Yunli took a small stool and sat opposite him, lowering her eyes, and took one to eat. When she took the second one, she looked in the plate and found the shape she had specially picked at the stall this morning.

He put a piece of paper under it and calmly placed the strawberry in front of Fu Shizhe.

Love heart shape.

Yunli took another one from the plate and ate it slowly, as if nothing had happened.

“…”

Fu Shi's eyes fell on the strawberries, which were dark red in color and exuded an alluring luster.

There was no air conditioning in the room, but he felt that it was much hotter inside than outside. He leaned back and unbuttoned his coat.

The air seemed stagnant.

Yunli heard his heart beating faster and faster. After thinking for a long time, he murmured in a low voice: "Actually, that's your photo. I saw it when I was in the first year of high school."

"If you hadn't shown up, I would have forgotten about you."

"Who made you show up again?"

When she said this, she looked in another direction, her ears turned red, and she seemed embarrassed.

Fu Shize was originally taking off his coat, but upon hearing this, he paused.

Yunli wanted to say something, but suddenly she heard Yunye open the door. She stood up almost instinctively like a thief and said unnaturally, "Yunye, you can play now. This brother has installed the equipment."

She lowered her head to turn on the video.

Perhaps because of nervousness, Yunli spoke quickly: "Let's play online for a while, and then I'll play alone for a while."

Yunye didn't react: "Sister, please speak slower."

Yunli took a deep breath and repeated it in a slowed-down voice.

Fu Shize sat on the sofa for a while before getting up. He put equipment on both of them and started a horror game as he had agreed with Yunli. The game screens of the two people would be projected onto Yunli's laptop.

He leaned against the wall, watching the two people tense up and enter the game. At first, they were one or two meters apart, but it wasn't long before Yunye leaned next to Yunli.

Yunye: "Damn, Yunli, this is a bit scary."

Yunli: "Yunye, you go to the front."

Yunye: "I don't want it. You are the elder sister, you go to the front."

Yunli: "Please, Yunye."

Yunye: "Please, Yunli."

“…”

Fu Shi sat back on the sofa, and the heart-shaped strawberry appeared in his sight again, like a forbidden object calling out.

He turned around and looked at Yunli and Yunye, who were still immersed in the game.

A confusing desire grows in my heart, trying to break the balance of the moment.

He picked up the strawberry and took a slow bite.

Only ten minutes had passed when the two of them finished the first level. Fu Shi first took off Yun Ye's equipment, verbally instructed Yun Li to open the second game, and then recorded a short clip to complete today's task.

After Yunli started the game, Fu Shi waved to Yunye, motioning him to come over.

"Have some strawberries."
