Chapter 94

Chu Yu had just finished queuing up for food in the cafeteria. When he was leaving, the system reminded him that there was a new message. Teacher Zhao in his mind asked him with concern whether it was from Luo Jiayu and whether he wanted to take a look.

Chu Yu, holding a piece of toast in his mouth, walked to a corner with a puzzled look on his face and took out the new mobile phone he had received as a reward from his pocket. He had hardly used this phone since he got it.

He clicked on it and saw new messages coming from Weibo, a platform he had never used before. He opened Weibo and suddenly, several group chat notifications popped up in the previously empty private message bar.

He had never seen the name of the group chat before, and Chu Yu was confused.

Glancing at the member list in the group chat, he didn't recognize any of them. Each ID was more unfamiliar than the last, but many of them were similar, all containing the word "fish" or "Pisces", such as "Pisces will change its name after the official announcement" and "Did Pisces get married today?"

Chu Yu hadn't had the conditions to surf the Internet since he entered the talent show camp. The last time he did was because he learned from the system that his voice could be heard. Out of a slight sense of breakdown and collapse, he used Luo Jiayu's phone to search frantically for the entire night. Apart from that, he didn't know what Pisces meant.

The realization that the group was full of strangers made him subconsciously nervous, but soon when he scrolled to the back, a familiar ID that came into view helped soothe his emotions: the handsome chief of AAA.

Compared with the nicknames of other fans around him, Erde is unique and extremely friendly. You can tell whose account it is at a glance.

But he soon discovered that there were more than one account with the same problem, including his own.

Because many people are @ing him, the ID style of @ looks even more unique than "AAA Chief Handsome Guy".

[@Centenarian prepares for primary school entrance exam]

[Little brother's buddy, come out and say something @Centenarian prepares for primary school entrance exam]

[The family of the little boy please come out and say something @Centenarian prepares for primary school entrance exam]

[Little brother, your partner is not still preparing for the entrance exam to junior high school, right? @AAA Chief Handsome Guy]

Why isn't the kid from the younger brother's family talking? Is he shy? @Centenarians prepare for primary school entrance exams]

My son feeds ducks: What should we call you, kid's buddy? [Question emoji]

The overwhelming @ messages made his scalp tingle, but he had no idea why he ended up in such a group chat, and he was very confused.

Brother Baizi wanted to figure out what was going on.

So he put a question mark in the past.

[A centenarian prepares for the transition from primary school to middle school: ...? ]

There is an ellipsis before the question mark, revealing a hint of politeness amidst the confusion.

The confused centenarian seemed to bring a special lively atmosphere to the group chat of this group of extroverted and fun-loving people.

The weird sisters suddenly changed their offensive tactics, from doubting the truthfulness of the little brother's words to collectively teasing the new confused and good brother.

【Back! Alive!】

[Brother, your ID is really abstract]

[This ellipsis plus question mark is a little cute. Is it because I've been worried about my brother for too long that I have a filter for my socially anxious brother?]

【Brother, you haven't told me your name yet】

[Brother, if you don’t speak, we will call you Little Brother]

[What is this little kid brother? Hahahahaha]

[Isn’t my younger brother nineteen years old, one year younger than my older brother? He and my older brother are a perfect match, so it’s easy to remember.]

[That makes sense, little brother? Are you still there?]

[A centenarian prepares for the transition from primary school to junior high school: ...]

Chu Yu, who was delighted with the new name, silently scrolled through the group chat messages that were pouring out. Finally, he looked up and left his mind blank for three seconds, then typed an @ symbol into the dialog box.

[A centenarian prepares for the transition from primary school to middle school:? @AAA Chief Handsome Guy]

A resounding question mark clearly expresses rich meanings such as who am I, where am I, come and save me, etc.

Luo Jiayu, who was in the dormitory on the other side, grasped all the meanings and frantically typed in front of the screen for the first time:

[AAA Chief Handsome Guy: Don't tease him! ]

But this sentence unfortunately triggered a counter-effect. Seeing the direction of the group chat gradually getting out of control, Luo Jiayu's first reaction was to worry that his childhood friend, who was born with social anxiety, would feel uncomfortable. His second reaction was that they had inexplicably become a pair of public cyber bride and groom, and if they were exposed, they would be doomed.

Because Chu Yu basically never cared about the development of their CP super topic, Luo Jiayu had always been the one letting himself go in his own fan group. When he was pursuing someone, he would seek emotional counseling from his fellow sisters. After he was in a relationship, he would excitedly show off that he finally had a wife. However, it was only a show-off among netizens. He didn't really want his wife to get involved!

The feeling of being publicly booed is very uncomfortable for a socially anxious person. It feels as if a stranger has a head full of rose petals thrown at him through the Internet. Luo Jiayu likes being lively and likes to stand in the middle of the crowd and be noticed, but that doesn't mean he thinks Chu Yu will like it.

The sense of inner boundaries is difficult to break, and it is especially obvious for introverts. Even if the Capybara at home seems to be indifferent to everything in the world, acceptance is one thing, and feeling comfortable is another.

Although the screen was black, new messages were still popping out in the group.

[The kid is getting anxious. This is the first time I’ve seen him so flustered.]

[Little brother, why do you only use ellipsis and question marks?]

[The kid said his partner is very introverted and shy, so that’s why he’s so flustered]

[Little brother is so protective of his wife~ I got it again]

【Little brother, are you still there?】

【Little brother, can you type a word?】

Is the punctuation column your twenty-six keys?

Chu Yu was very slow in replying, and he basically used punctuation marks all the time. It was strange that it was even harder for the sisters to get words out of him than from the little brother. The group chat had already been updated for almost 99+ times, and the centenarian had only just replied with one word.

[A centenarian preparing for the transition from primary school to junior high school: No]

When facing strangers, his language system automatically simplifies. He will not type if he can avoid it, and will never send a second word if the answer can be answered with one word.

He is very frugal with words and is aloof.

[AAA Chief Handsome Guy: He Uses Nine Keys]

[AAA Chief Handsome Guy: Don't tease him! ]

After Luo Jiayu sent this message, she jumped up from her seat and planned to leave the dormitory and go directly to pick up her boyfriend who was coming back from the cafeteria. Who knew so many unexpected things would happen in just twenty minutes of separation.

He had just put the key in his pocket and opened the door. After walking a few dozen meters along the corridor, he saw the figure he had been thinking about walking into the dormitory building carrying two plastic bags containing lunch boxes.

After Chu Yu finished scanning his face, he looked up and saw his childhood friend running towards him. He handed a plastic bag to the other person.

The first sentence came out very smoothly: "This is yours, maocai in clear soup."

The second sentence was whispered: "What's going on with that group?"

Luo Jiayu subconsciously raised her hand to touch her boyfriend's face, and only calmed down after confirming that there was no uncomfortable expression on his face.

"Let's go back first."

After returning, the two put the lunch boxes on the table and unpacked the chopsticks and packaging with ease. In between unpacking, Luo Jiayu explained the whole process to her boyfriend. Chu Yu nodded in understanding, lowered her head and reopened her phone to see how far the group chat had progressed.

[Oh my kid, you're so anxious~]

[I know, I know, I know you care about your wife a lot~]

[I'm a little curious, does your wife know that you secretly call her your wife?]

[We can't tease him, you're the only one who can tease him, right~]

Chu Yu quickly turned off the screen and put the phone back. His face and ears were still a faint pink because of the wavy lines floating in his mind.

"What kind of group is this?" He dipped the toast he bought into the maocai soup and chewed it for several mouthfuls before slowly calming down. He looked up and asked Luo Jiayu who was sitting next to him and eating with him.

"Uh," Luo Jiayu thought for a moment and said, "Our CP fan group."

Chu Yu: “Ah?”

The real fan danced on the real person's face and made the real person blush without knowing it.

[Little brother, little brother, are you still there?]

We haven't asked you any questions yet, kid.

Did we scare the little kid? He's retreated into his shell again.

[It’s broken, can’t it be the real Brother Pendulum?]

【I also think this character is similar】

[Where in the world are there couples whose ages and personalities are so well matched? Brother Sprayer and Brother Shaker, you guys are not really dating, are you? I’m so scared.]

[I still don't believe it. If this is true, then this CP super topic must have been created by the sprayer brother himself. How can there be such a magical plot?]

[Little brother? Hello, little brother, are you still there? ]

[A centenarian prepares for the transition from primary school to junior high school:]

This question can be answered by Chu Yu.

【Little brother, we have questions for you】

Chu Yu's CPU crashed for three seconds when he heard the name "little kid, little brother, baby".

[A centenarian prepares for the transition from primary school to middle school: [question emoji] asks]

The other side took a direct offensive.

[Baby, tell me the truth, is your real name Chu Yu?]

Chu Yu, who had received a message from Luo Jiayu in advance, responded immediately to her mom fans.

[A centenarian preparing for the transition from primary school to junior high school: No]

The Pisces sisters didn't believe it and continued to ask.

[Baby, do you have a nickname called Brother Pendulum?]

[A centenarian preparing for the transition from primary school to junior high school: No.]

It was resounding and ended with a proud period, which was very convincing.

【All right】

I believe it. Chu Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

[Baby, if Wei Ziyu and Fu Hansong fell into the water, who would you save first?]

?

[A centenarian prepares for the transition from primary school to junior high school: and]

[Such an abstract answer, which fits my stereotype of Brother Baizi]

【I am dying of laughter】

Initial metaphor:?

[Baby, do you like dad or mom more?]

[A centenarian prepares for the transition from primary school to junior high school: Still]

[Two words! Good! He said two words!]

?

Well, he has become a toy of his friends.

The fans seemed to believe his denial, but not completely.

However, there is an obvious change. After Brother Sprayer, who set a precedent for idols to infiltrate the lives of fans, Brother Baizi has also joined this happy CP fan family.

After finishing his meal, Luo Jiayu took a napkin to wipe his mouth while picking up his phone to check the group chat messages. After seeing the latest few messages, he couldn't help laughing out loud. After scrolling through the messages for a while, his ears turned red again.

There were fans in the group cueing him, asking where this week's royal food was.

[Little Brother, is there any fresh Pisces rice to eat this week?]

The real person refused to admit it, so the fans wisely stopped asking questions. No matter what they thought in their hearts, they still separated "Little Brother" from the real person.

Luo Jiayu looked through the inventory. There were not many photos of the couple they had taken together before. It would be easy to expose them if they were posted at this juncture. He thought about it and typed.

[AAA Chief Handsome Guy: No]

[AAA Chief Handsome Guy: These are the photos I found of them, nothing else.]

CP fans are disappointed.

Ah, no more [tears emoji]

"Brother, please look for more. Maybe there's still some food left in the warehouse."

【Little——child——】

After a while, a weak voice sounded, and soon gained the support of many other sisters:

[Little brother, if you don’t have any Pisces left, can you send us a photo of you and your partner so we can chat?]

【agree】

[+1]

[+1]

【I want to see a photo of you two together】

Luo Jiayu pondered the message for a moment, and finally couldn't help but turned around to find his boyfriend. He waved to Chu Yu and whispered a few words in her ear. Chu Yu listened quietly at first, then looked at him in horror; Luo Jiayu looked back quietly, with comfort and pleading in his eyes.

Chu Yu softened his heart.

"……All right."

An hour later, "AAA Chief Handsome Guy" posted a photo in the group. It was a direct shot from the camera and showed two clay handicrafts placed side by side on the table. The one on the left was a puppy with sunglasses and lines. The owner had very skillful hands and the puppy was shaped so cute, grinning like a sunflower. The clay work on the right could be seen to have been made with great care and effort, but the artist had limited talent. The finished product was so abstract that one could only vaguely make out a puppy with its eyes squinting and taking a nap. It was leaning next to the puppy with sunglasses and looked like it was sleeping soundly.
