Chapter 91

a bolt from the blue.

That night, a cool guy didn't sleep well and tossed and turned in his bed in the dormitory for several hours. The next day, Chu Yu, who was in the lower bunk, just woke up. In a daze, she wanted to poke the mattress of the upper bunk and asked her boyfriend if he wanted to have breakfast together, but found that her boyfriend had already woken up.

Luo Jiayu woke up but did not change his clothes and get out of bed. Instead, he squatted in the corner of the bed by the wall, hugging his knees and keeping his eyes open. It was unknown how long he maintained this autistic posture.

Hearing the creaking sound of the ladder, Luo Jiayu knew that it was her boyfriend climbing up to find her. She raised her head, revealing two dark circles under her eyes, and her expression looked dejected and desperate, a rare sight in a thousand years.

Kapibara didn't know. He tilted his head and looked a little drowsy: "How did you turn into a panda?"

Luo Jiayu habitually stretched out a hand, and Chu Yu habitually took that hand. Luo Jiayu exerted a little force and pulled the person into his arms. Chu Yu felt his cheek rubbing against the soft and dry cloth, and then the warm mint smell. Everything around him was quiet in the early morning, and he subconsciously closed his eyes little by little.

Luo Jiayu's head drooped even lower today than before. He hugged the person in his arms, silently tightened his grip, and then continued to bury his head in self-imposed silence.

Just as Chu Yu was about to fall asleep in this position, he heard a small whisper beside his ear:

"I thought about it for a long time, and it seems like there's a solution."

"Um?"

"The position is actually not very important." Luo Jiayu said this and closed his eyes sadly.

Chu Yu didn't react: "Yeah?"

"It's just... we're going to keep living together anyway, so some things have to be resolved. It's normal to make some sacrifices for this. What I mean is..." Luo Jiayu took a deep breath, his tone revealing the tragic and heroic feeling of a hero cutting off his own arm, "We can take turns."

Chu Yu half-opened his eyes and nodded his head, but suddenly stopped halfway, awakened by his boyfriend's words.

He raised his head, his eyes and the alopecia on his head all revealed a sense of confusion:

"ah?"

He looked at Luo Jiayu.

Luo Jiayu looked at him.

Chu Yu felt that her boyfriend was about to burst into tears in the next second.

Wait, what's taking turns?

Five minutes later, after realizing that everything that had just happened was just a misunderstanding, Luo Xiaogou revived with full health on the spot. He shook his head and threw away the ideological education he had worked hard on all night yesterday. He felt that something very precious and happy had returned.

Chu Yu wanted to get out of bed to change clothes and have breakfast, but before he could turn around, he was pulled back and pushed down on the bed sheet with a "dong" sound; Luo Jiayu tied his limbs in revenge, and then bit and licked the lips of the person under him in an irregular manner.

"Woo..." Luo Jiayu seemed to ask something in between kisses, but the entanglement of lips and tongue made it unclear. Chu Yu did not hear clearly and could only shake his head. His consciousness, which had just regained consciousness, was shattered by the kiss in an instant; after a while, he felt the movement on the lips gradually become gentler, the tip of the tongue pressed against the gap between the teeth and probed in, the licking and biting turned into a deep kiss, and the originally tense nerves relaxed little by little with this kiss, time was stretched and slowed down, slowly flowing along with the morning light at the head of the bed.

Luo Jiayu's fingers, which were originally grasping the wrist of the person under him, moved up along the skin little by little until they clasped the other's palm. The action of interlocking fingers seemed to make both of them feel comforted, so the kiss became more gentle and soothing, and the process that was originally supposed to end after a while was also prolonged indefinitely. Chu Yu felt a layer of mist slowly accumulating in front of his sight, and he realized in a trance that he seemed to have finally learned to breathe.

After the kiss, Luo Xiaogou was satisfied. He hugged Chu Xiaoyu, who was as soft as a puddle of water, and rubbed her in his arms, as if he was afraid that his new wife would run away again.

Because Chu Yu's face, ears and neck would turn red and pink after every kiss, Luo Jiayu habitually pressed the person's head against his chest or shoulders, and then put his fingers to cover the exposed ears so that others could not see.

A kiss has a strong aftereffect, and it often takes a long time for Chu Yu to recover. And if she stays in her boyfriend's arms during this period, smelling the familiar scent of fabric and feeling the familiar body temperature, and her boyfriend kisses her hair and forehead from time to time, it will take even longer.

The two of them stayed in this snuggle for a long time, until the sticky and cold white morning light turned into the dazzling sunlight, and they realized that it was almost noon.

Luo Jiayu lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms: "What did you want to talk to me about?"

Chu Yu's breath was still a little unstable after being kissed. She collapsed in his arms, her voice sounding weak: "Eat breakfast."

"..." Luo Jiayu turned his head to look at the sun rising outside, his eyes half-concealed and half-happy, "Just consider it as having already eaten."

After washing and changing their clothes, the two of them set out for lunch together. Because many places in the camp, including the cafeteria, were equipped with real-time cameras, they could not be affectionate in front of the camera directly. Intimate actions such as hugging and kissing could only be done secretly in the dormitory. They had to restrain themselves in front of the public.

So the two of them were like a couple in a secret love affair, secretly holding hands all the way from the dormitory to the cafeteria, with the gaps between their fingers being filled with each other's fingers little by little, and sharing a tacit secret that only they knew in every subtle movement of their fingertips.

Chu Yu was shy, and the meaning of holding hands like this was completely different from the previous ambiguous period. It carried some more obscure and private feelings, and it was well known that his ears and cheeks were always difficult to hide secrets.

People get nervous when they have a secret to hide. He lowered his head, covered his red ears with one sleeve, and stumbled as he walked. He almost bumped into the electric pole in front of him several times. After being rescued by his boyfriend next to him, he raised his head in a daze to meet people's gaze, and then his eyes gradually became panicked, and then his ears became even redder.

For him, objectively speaking, it is difficult for his body to hide secrets, but this is not the case for another conspicuous person.

Luo Jiayu was originally very happy walking down the street hand in hand with her childhood friend and boyfriend, almost skipping with her steps. But halfway through her boasting, she suddenly realized a fact -

He couldn't even run to the largest studio in Dinglian with a loud speaker and loudly announce to the world that he now had a wife, but had to keep it a secret. How could such a heartbreaking fact exist?

It is so regrettable, unacceptable and uncomfortable to have a lovely wife but not be able to show her off.

Before the unwilling Luo Xiaogou dragged her boyfriend into the cafeteria, they happened to run into Lu Yiyang who had just returned from the cafeteria. The latter was a rare person who came out alone, without Xue Liu by his side. When he saw the two of them, he greeted them carelessly:

"Good afternoon, both of you. Have you eaten yet? Oh no, you're all in the cafeteria, so you definitely haven't eaten yet."

While Lu Yiyang was still muttering to himself, Luo Jiayu's eyes lit up on the other side. He felt that he had finally found a target that he could show off to secretly.

The next second, he pretended to be serious and cleared his throat twice. He felt his pocket and found that he had forgotten to bring his sunglasses, so he took his hand back and pretended that he had put them on. He raised his chin proudly, and the corners of his mouth flew around uncontrollably.

Then he winked at the other person suggestively:

"Have you noticed any difference between me today and before?"

Lu Yiyang was in deep thought.

He saw that the person opposite him was winking at the hand of the person next to him, and then winking at him madly, looking very impatient.

Lu Yiyang suddenly realized: "Your eyelid is cramping?"

When Luo Gougou went to pick up the food, his face was downcast. He racked his brains but couldn't figure out where the mistake had occurred.

Chu Yu was concentrating on picking up food, his eyes sparkling - the cafeteria actually had a new menu today, and it was his favorite dish. A perfect day was so simple.

Most of the food in the camp was light in flavor. After Chu Yu finished picking up his own dish, he looked around and found a plate of dim sum in the corner that his childhood friend loved. He reached over and handed it to Luo Jiayu next to him.

"Do you want to eat?"

Luo Jiayu's eyes lit up, and Chu Yu put it directly on his plate the next second, then went back to queue for the bill.

The bad mood caused by Dr. Lu's diagnosis of eyelid cramps just now was swept away in an instant. Luo Jiayu followed happily and wanted to put his arm around the man's shoulders to cling to him for a while, but because he was holding the dinner plate and couldn't free his hands, he had to give up regretfully.

Because they had been hungry all morning and had to go to the studio to listen to the ranking announcement in the afternoon, the two of them ate much faster than usual today.

"Oh, right." During the meal, Luo Jiayu seemed to remember something. He put down his chopsticks and asked, "How's the mission you took on going?"

Chu Yu put a piece of sausage into his mouth. He was always so focused on eating that he didn't react for a moment: "Which one?"

"That's right, that's right..." Although she was very flirtatious during the ambiguous period, she felt embarrassed after they started dating. She secretly reminded him, "You said you wanted to capture my girl."

When he said that, Chu Yu remembered that it had indeed been a while since he had seen the small pink icon constantly swaying in front of his eyes to gain +1+1 points. Ever since the night of the third public performance when they kissed in the corner backstage, the favorability value reached the maximum at that moment, and the task-related broadcast sound had never appeared since then.

In addition, they have been sticking together since they confirmed their relationship, so Chu Yu has been in a daze these past two days and didn't even think of checking it out.

He put a meatball into his mouth and chewed it seriously for a while. After swallowing it, he said, "Wait a minute, I'll go take a look."

Luo Jiayu started to wait. She stopped eating while waiting and looked left and right at her boyfriend who was sitting opposite her with empty eyes. After looking at him for a while, she put two pieces of meat on his plate, looked at him for a while more, then reached out and touched his head.

Chu Yu came back after looking at the task system. As his eyes refocused, there was a small card in his hand, which was the death-free card promised by the broadcast system before.

"Mission reward." He opened his palm and gestured to Luo Jiayu.

Luo Jiayu placed his fingers on his wrist and looked at the small card in his hand, seeming to be lost in thought.

"I just remembered that I never asked you why you suddenly accepted that mission. I thought the system forced you to accept it."

"No, I chose to take it myself." Chu Yu said.

"Is that what it's for?"

"Um."

Luo Jiayu read the text on the card carefully, and found that it was a life-saving artifact. No matter how badly he did in the book-crossing mission, as long as he had this card in hand, he could escape the failure judgment at the end.

But it only means that you cannot die. You may eventually be sent to the next world in the book, or simply be stranded in the book space, without being able to choose your own destination, let alone go home.

He always remembered that Chu Yu wanted to go home.

"Actually, that's not necessary. You'll definitely make your debut." Luo Jiayu thought for a moment, then confidently added, "First place."

Although the ranking in the last performance was a surprise, and his childhood friend did not make it into the top three for various embarrassing reasons, but Luo Xiaogou has already fired the first shot against the black forces with his bank card and the company behind him. I believe that there will be more obvious results soon. Those who are muddying the waters and taking the backdoor will be exposed and those who are willing to withdraw will be withdrawn. When everything returns to normal, his child's ranking will only be higher, not lower.

"I'm giving this to you." Chu Yu said.

"Ah?" Luo Jiayu didn't react.

Chu Yu stuffed the card into the hand of the person opposite him, turned the card over, and revealed the name of the holder, which was Luo Jiayu.

Luo Jiayu sat there quietly, not saying a word for a long time.

"I'm afraid you'll die." Chu Yu added, looking very understanding.

He was speaking the truth. Luo Jiayu's popularity was unstable. Although his ranking had risen several times, he was still a long way from the debut position. Moreover, the condition for judging the success of the mission was to debut at a high position.

He didn't like to dwell on these things, as they would only increase his anxiety. The only practical thing he could do was to accept the task diligently, and after completing it, give the reward of the Death-Free Card to his childhood friend - this way, at least there was a guarantee, and he could rest assured.

Besides the purpose of gaining the favor of someone's childhood friend, it sounds a bit strange to help that friend.

It seemed as if time had stood still for several seconds for his childhood friend. Chu Yu poked him, then had his wrist pulled. Luo Jiayu pressed his face against the back of his hand. Although his heart swelled as if it had been soaked, the corners of his mouth still curled up:

"Don't worry, neither of us will need this card."
