Chapter 5 Chapter 5 "I heard that I have high standards?"



Chapter 5 Chapter 5 "I heard that I have high standards?"

Her mother asked her to try again.

"Mom, a forced melon is not sweet."

Li Huanhuan covered his phone and whispered, "Okay, I'm on the bus, it's not convenient, let's talk later."

Hang up the phone.

“Huh~”

Li Huanhuan breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at his phone whose screen had gone dark.

Qin Shi's face gradually emerged in my mind...

If she didn't know that Qin Shi was the protagonist of this world, and she accidentally met such a "super handsome guy" at a blind date, perhaps she would really "let her liking follow his facial features" and be attracted by Qin Shi's special features.

Unfortunately, there is no "if".

Qin Shi is the protagonist of this world, and she is just a passerby in the plot. The relationship between Passerby and the protagonist is destined to have no result.

Li Huanhuan fiercely suppressed the desire that was aroused by the male beauty in her heart.

Male guest No. 80, solved!

Return home.

Li Huanhuan threw himself hard onto the sofa, pressed the pillow, and rolled twice.

"Tsk, it's still comfortable at home~" She let out a comfortable moan.

The protagonist, the villain, the western restaurant, the bar, and the crazy fans...

These highly-anticipated celebrities, and their high-intensity, stimulating lives every moment, are simply not suitable for a lazy, nerdy, and idle person like her, okay?

The energy she consumed and the number of steps she took today alone exceeded her usual energy consumption in half a month. For the next half month, Li Huanhuan didn't plan to go out.

"Meow~"

Something hairy brushed against my bare ankles.

Li Huanhuan sat up suddenly. A white long-haired cat was squatting beside the sofa, looking at her quietly with its emerald green eyes.

"Your Highness~" Li Huanhuan pounced over and hugged the cat before it could react. He buried his head in its soft belly, took a deep breath, and then felt a slap on the face.

"Meow!"

The cat broke free from her arms and jumped onto the back of the sofa behind her. Its big fluffy tail slowly swept across its chest and it looked down at her condescendingly.

Li Huanhuan was used to it and was not angry. He thought of the bag of cat food that he had brought back with great difficulty.

"Your Highness, would you like to try a new flavor?" she asked with a smile.

After trying the new cat food for His Highness, Li Huanhuan went to the bathroom. After washing up, Li Huanhuan put on thick pajamas, sat in front of the computer desk with a thermos cup, turned on the computer on the desk, and started her work for the day.

Li Huanhuan's main job is a video blogger, and the content of her videos is the use of stick figures to interpret her imaginative stories. The stories are quite diverse, including adventure fantasy, pet stories, daily life stories, and sometimes some popular stories for traffic...

It looks simple, but it requires a lot of energy.

Sometimes, in order to catch up with an inspiration, Li Huanhuan would sit in front of the computer for more than ten hours, and it was common for him to work all night long.

But for video bloggers, the income is unstable after all. Even though Li Huanhuan has more than 500,000 followers on the platform since graduation, her main source of income every month is still advertising.

Her update frequency is not very high. Her income is slightly better when there are advertisements, and can reach tens of thousands at best. If there are no advertisements that month, Li Huanhuan will be miserable. Not to mention cutting back on food and clothing, you'll have to at least eat vegetarian food for a few days.

Therefore, in addition to his main job as a video blogger, Li Huanhuan also took on a part-time job as an outsourced writer of content for public accounts. After layers of outsourcing, Li Huanhuan can only get a very small share in the end, but combined with the income from the videos, it is enough to support her and Her Highness Cat’s life.

In addition, Li Huanhuan also opened an account for His Highness the Cat, and sometimes broadcasts His Highness the Cat’s daily life online.

In general, although Li Huanhuan stays at home every day, she actually has a lot to do, leaving her less time to go out. Not to mention going out for blind dates or even falling in love with someone.

Another all-nighter.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Li Huanhuan uploaded the video he had just made to the backstage and set a scheduled update for 8 o'clock tonight. He raised his hand to rub the cat's round head, then stood up and walked towards the bedroom.

The cat jumped off the table, wagging its tail, and followed her into the bedroom.

Back in the bedroom, Li Huanhuan skillfully lifted the quilt and lay down in it. In less than two minutes, I fell into a deep sleep.

Buzz buzz buzz.

Li Huanhuan was awakened by the ringing of his cell phone.

She was dreaming before she woke up.

The content of the dream was very confusing. She first dreamed that she went back to her 20th birthday. After making a birthday wish, she, the "passerby NPC", woke up and found that the world she was in was actually a book. Fear and anxiety surged in her heart.

Then, she dreamed of her mother falling in front of her with a pale face...

"mom--"

She was caught in a black vortex.

"Li Huanhuan!"

In the darkness, someone was calling her name.

who?

Who is calling her?

The voice sounded familiar, but Li Huanhuan, who was trapped in a dream, couldn't remember it at all.

"Li Huanhuan, don't see Fox again! He approached you to get revenge on me!"

What?

"Rings? Rings after rings? Isn't it just circles?" A childish voice sounded.

"So, you are the circle?"

"Sister Circle~"

Buzz buzz. Buzz buzz.

Li Huanhuan felt as if someone was covering her nose, and in her dream, her breathing began to become rapid. "Huh~" When she struggled to wake up, she found that her vision was blocked and Her Highness the Cat was lying on her face. No wonder she could hardly breathe in her dream.

She quickly reached out, lifted the cat from her face, threw it aside, and gasped. His expression paused, and he spat out two cat hairs from his mouth. He turned his head and looked at the white cat next to him with an indescribable look.

His Highness the Cat had already jumped onto the bay window, stretched out his paws, and washed his face gracefully.

Buzz buzz. Buzz buzz.

Li Huanhuan sighed helplessly, only some fragments of his previous dream remained. At this time, she finally noticed the noise coming from the mobile phone on the bedside table.

"Who is it, all morning and all afternoon?"

She glanced at the alarm clock next to her and found that it was already past 4 p.m. and she had slept for a full 8 hours.

It was an unfamiliar number on the phone, and Li Huanhuan hung up the call out of habit.

“Ah~”

She yawned and prepared to get up.

Buzz buzz. Buzz buzz.

That number called again.

Um? Li Huanhuan picked up the phone again with confusion. Was this not a sales pitch or a scam?

Because he stays at home all year round, Li Huanhuan’s circle of friends is very narrow, and he can only contact two or three friends on a regular basis. But those two or three people basically chatted on WeChat, so apart from her mother, the only people who called her were salesmen or scammers.

"Hello? Who is this?"

After the phone rang four or five times, she finally picked up.

"It's me." The voice on the other end of the phone sounded familiar.

"Um?"

"Qin Shi."

The person on the other end of the phone said.

"Ah?" Li Huanhuan was stunned, "Qin Shi?!"

Her voice rose involuntarily.

"Why are you calling me? No, how do you have my phone number?" she asked.

"..." Qin Shi, "Is it strange to have your call?"

"No, it's not strange." The brain that just woke up finally became clear.

Qin Shi didn't have her contact information, but he could ask her family.

only……

"Why are you calling me?" Li Huanhuan asked cautiously.

On the other end of the phone, Qin Shi's voice sounded a little unhappy: "I heard that you told your aunt that I have high standards and I don't like you?"

Li Huanhuan: “…”

Isn’t it?

But she still apologized sincerely.

"sorry."

Qin Shi: "A simple 'I'm sorry' is all you need? I hate being slandered."

Li Huanhuan: “?”

ah? What slander? Is it that she hasn't woken up yet, or is it that Qin Shi hasn't woken up yet? How had he confused her?

Qin Shi added: "I will not allow my reputation to be damaged. Tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock, Tianlang will have a match against Coldplay, and it will end at 4 o'clock at the latest."

Tianlang is the team Qin Shi belongs to.

Coldplay is the team that Zhang Canyang belongs to.

Li Huanhuan didn't understand why Qin Shi specifically mentioned tomorrow's game.

"After the game, I will ask for leave from the coach. We will meet at Chenguang Square around 6 o'clock. What do you want to eat?" Qin Shi asked.

ah?

Why do we suddenly want to meet again?

"You can take your time to think about it. If you haven't made up your mind, I will make the decision." Qin Shi said again.

"But, why?" Li Huanhuan finally found his voice.

On the other end of the phone, Qin Shi laughed, and the sound reached her ears through the phone. Li Huanhuan rubbed his ears uncomfortably and heard Qin Shi say, "I told you, I won't allow my reputation to be damaged. Come out and meet them, have dinner, and then send the group photo to them."

"they?"

"Your mom and my mom."

Qin Shi seemed very busy. "Save my phone number. Remember, see you at Chenguang Square at 6pm tomorrow."

After speaking hurriedly, he hung up the phone.

"Hello, hello?"

Li Huanhuan put down his phone helplessly.

Is this the "protagonist's pace of life"? A weird phone call, weird conversation, and a weird appointment to meet her again?

Doesn't he know that for a stay-at-home like her, going out continuously will disrupt her life rhythm?

Thinking of this, Li Huanhuan picked up his phone again, clicked on Qin Shi's number, hesitated at the "dial" point, and changed to "text message": "Sorry, I have something to do tomorrow and can't go."

She rejected Qin Shi's invitation to dinner.

However, Qin Shi was probably really busy and never replied to her message. Li was still fantasizing that the message had been sent, so he didn't care.

She got up, washed, opened a new can of food for Her Highness the Cat, ordered some takeout, and sat back at her computer desk.

She turned on the computer and originally wanted to write the content for her part-time job's public account, but when she sat in front of the computer, fragments of her dream emerged in her mind.

"Rings? Rings and rings? Isn't it just circles?"

"Then from now on, I will call you Sister Quanquan~"

The little boy's timid voice echoed in his mind.

"Why did I suddenly dream about the little sun?" Li Huanhuan raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.

Little Sun was Li Huanhuan’s neighbor when he was a child.

At that time, her biological father was still alive, and she, her mother, and her father, a family of three, lived in the old house. The old house has no elevator. It was built in the 1970s or 1980s, and it has been many years since then. The "Little Sun" is the boy who lives downstairs from her and is two years younger than her.

Xiao Taiyang's parents often quarreled, and there was always the sound of a woman crying coming from the house. One night, the police were even alarmed. It was not until he grew up that Li Huanhuan realized that it was domestic violence.

Li Huanhuan met Xiao Yang on a rainy day.

That day was Li Huanhuan’s 7th birthday. Her father and mother took her to a restaurant outside to celebrate her birthday. When I walked downstairs, I saw a thin figure huddled in the corridor. The child's body was soaked, the corners of his mouth were bruised, and his exposed arms were covered with scars.

Li Huanhuan's father picked up the child. She was so skinny that her exposed hands were bony. She was even lighter than a cat, but her whole body was burning hot. Her father felt so distressed that he rushed to send the child to a nearby clinic in the rain. Later, the child's mother rushed to the clinic, thanked them profusely, and blamed herself for not protecting the child.

However, Li Huanhuan saw that the aunt's exposed arm had scars that were more serious than those on the child.

In this way, Li Huanhuan got to know the child and his mother.

But the child’s father was terrible. Every time he came back, his mother would send him to her house. At that time, Li Huanhuan was young and couldn't understand the reasons behind this? She only knew that she had a new friend.

The child's mother called him "Yangyang". Li Huanhuan saw that he was always unhappy and looked pitiful, and other children in the yard didn't play with him, so he called him "Sun" and "Little Sun", hoping that he would be as warm and happy as the sun one day.

When he was a child, Li Huanhuan was very noisy and always had a lot to say. When facing a silent and withdrawn child, he can chatter on his own, ask and answer questions by himself, and can talk for two hours without stopping.

I don’t know when it started, but the silent and lonely child took off all the thorns on his body in front of Li Huanhuan, revealing his soft heart.

"Your name is Huanhuan? One Huan Yi Huan? Isn't it just circles?" the child said timidly.

"It's Huanhuan, Huan as in home, Huan as in fantasy!" Li Huanhuan corrected.

The child's eyes were red. Li Huanhuan stood up to get him some toilet paper, but the child mistakenly thought that she was angry and wanted to leave, so he grabbed her sleeve in fear and held it tightly. Li Huanhuan turned around and saw the child with tears streaming down his face, but still holding her sleeve tightly and staring at her stubbornly. She instantly softened her heart.

"Okay, okay, if you want to call me 'Quanquan', then go ahead." Li Huanhuan compromised helplessly.

"Sister Circle."

From then on, she had a little tail behind her.

One night a year later, Xiao Taiyang's father drank too much and fell off the balcony and died. The police came, Xiao Yang's grandparents came, many people came, and it was very noisy...

Then, one afternoon, Li Huanhuan came home from school and found that the little sun was gone.

"He moved away with his mother," her mother told her.

"Where are you moving to?" Li Huanhuan still wanted to give him the candy she bought at the school gate.

"I don't know." Mom shook her head.

"Did Little Sun leave me a letter?" she asked.

"No."

“…”

Since then, Li Huanhuan has never seen the younger brother named "Little Sun" again.

"Circle?" Li was still imagining that yesterday afternoon, Fox Zhang Canyang had the same reaction as Xiao Taiyang after hearing her name.

Zhang Canyang?

Yangyang?

Could Zhang Canyang be the little sun she knew when she was a child?

However, the little sun she knew was taciturn, depressed, did not like to talk, did not like to laugh, and seemed to be in a rainy world without any sunshine. He was completely different from Fox, who had blonde hair, smiled at everyone he saw, was like an angel but had a weird and unpredictable personality.

Are they really the same person?

Li still fantasized about that inexplicable dream.

I simply exited the document, opened the browser, and searched the Internet for information about the villain Zhang Canyang.

Zhang Canyang, also known as Fox, is a member of the Coldplay team, a professional e-sports player, and a super popular star. His birthday is November 1, 2001. He has lived in Country M with his family for a long time. At the age of 18, he was spotted by a coach who was on a business trip to Country M. He signed a contract, returned to China, and became a professional e-sports player...

The information shows that Zhang Canyang had been living abroad with his family, but it does not mention when they went abroad? However, later, Li Huanhuan read in an early, gossip report that Fox Zhang Canyang had lived in City C during his childhood.

City C?

The age is right too.

Could it be that he was really the little sun that she knew when she was a child?

When discussing the adoption of a cat yesterday, she and Zhang Canyang added each other on WeChat. Li Huanhuan now really wants to open Zhang Canyang’s WeChat and ask him if he is the little sun? Do you still remember her?

But then, Li Huanhuan recalled Xiao Taiyang’s childhood experiences.

If he is the one, then isn't she exposing his scars by bringing up that past? Thinking of this, Li Huanhuan hesitated.

Just when Li Huanhuan was about to give up, she received a new message on WeChat. It was a message she asked a friend to forward yesterday about the adoption of the calico cat mother and daughter. Someone on WeChat was asking about adopting a cat.

Li Huanhuan confirmed the other party's character with his friend, and after confirming again and again that there was no problem, he agreed with the other party to go to the alley to see the cat tomorrow afternoon. She opened Zhang Canyang’s WeChat, paused, and sent him a message.

Zhang Canyang was also busy and didn't reply to her message until after dinner.

Fox: "Thank you, sister~"

Zhang Canyang said on WeChat that he has a competition tomorrow afternoon and will not be free until after 5 o'clock. Make an appointment with her to meet at 6pm in the alley where Ah Hua lives.
