Chapter 45
When Yin Mugang saw Zhong Mengyuan write down Chen Qinglin's name, he was stunned for a few seconds, but after a little thought, he understood her intention.
She clearly doesn't like dating, but she forces herself to do it and chooses someone she doesn't like. It's really hard for her.
When Zheng Wei looked at Yin Mushi, she saw that she looked thoughtful. Fearing that she would be unhappy because of Zhong Mengyuan's behavior, she tugged at the corner of her clothes.
Yin Mu turned his head, curled his lips at Zheng Wei, and said silently: "It's okay."
Chen Qinglin had no right to refuse. He could only do what Zhong Mengyuan said. He took the marker handed to him, not knowing what to write. Under the other party's burning gaze, he simply wrote down his name.
Zhong Mengyuan nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, then we will set off after lunch."
[It's hilarious how Zhong Mengyuan made a date sound like a business trip.]
[Why did Zhong Mengyuan choose this?! I don’t understand!]
[Yes, Zhong Mengyuan clearly has no feelings for Chen Qinglin, so why did she have to interfere?]
[But think about it, Zhong Mengyuan chose Chen Qinglin on her first day here. She can't really like him...]
[Yin Mu isn't angry? She's not angry?]
…
Zhong Mengyuan was the first to confirm the date very efficiently, while the others did not take any action for the time being. Even Jiang Nanyu was very abnormal and did not immediately invite Zhou Jingyu like he did two days ago. I don’t know what went wrong.
Yin Mu saw that both of them looked normal. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't find anything unusual after they came back yesterday, so he didn't bother to meddle in other people's business.
She snuggled up on the sofa and read for a while. Then she turned around and saw Zheng Wei, who seemed to be sitting on nails. She asked curiously, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Zheng Wei shook her head vigorously: "No."
"Then what happened to you?"
Zheng Wei hesitated for a long time, then came over and whispered, "I want to go out and play, too. I'm thinking about who to invite."
Yin Mu laughed when he heard it: "I thought it was a big deal, go ahead, there are still three people left to choose from."
Zheng Wei's shoulders slumped. "Then who do you think I can choose?"
Yin Mu thought about it. Zheng Wei didn't even look at Zhang Yang, and she had always looked down on Jiang Nanyu. There was only one option left, so he said, "Why don't you go and invite Lu Zilin? He shouldn't refuse."
"You can't guarantee that he will accept. If he refuses, won't I be disappointed and embarrassed?"
Yin Mu was helpless: "Of course I can't guarantee it. I'm not a worm in his stomach."
"...Hey, you don't have to say it so disgustingly."
Yin Mu smiled and patted her legs: "How can you have a chance if you don't try? Go boldly and enjoy your last day!"
"That's easy for you to say," Zheng Wei muttered. "If you invite Lu Zilin, there might still be a chance. I don't have much communication with him."
"How could that be? His first date was with you. Didn't you have a good impression of him then?"
"You're still here, though. There are three of us." Zheng Wei paused, then reluctantly admitted, "And I could tell he was being very polite to me. His eyes were calm, completely different from when he looked at you then or when he looked at Meng Yuan later."
Yin Mu was speechless for a moment. She had never expected that Zheng Wei had such a delicate side beneath her careless appearance, and she hid it so well that she couldn't even see it.
Seeing that she was silent, Zheng Wei pursed her lips and said, "It doesn't matter. This show probably isn't suitable for me anyway. I don't want to fall in love here anymore."
Yin Mu curled his lips: "Well... you can't force love, just have fun. - But if you really want to go, then go boldly. Didn't Meng Meng also say not to have any regrets?"
Zheng Wei puffed her cheeks, thought for a moment, and then made up her mind and stood up: "Okay, you're right, I'll go right away. Being rejected won't take more than a minute, it's better than having to worry about it all day."
[Wow, brave Zheng Wei, go go go! ]
Zheng Wei was surprisingly sensitive. I thought she hadn't noticed anything.
[Zheng Wei is not a fool, hahaha.]
[I think Lu Zilin likes Yin Mu more, and he and Zhong Mengyuan are more like good friends.]
[Yes, yes, and they get along really well together.]
…
Zheng Wei came back not long after she left, with joy evident on her face.
Yin Mu smiled knowingly and asked, "Did it succeed?"
Zheng Wei chuckled: "Yes, it went smoothly."
"So, where did you ask him to go?"
"No." Zheng Wei shrugged. "Actually, I don't have any particular place I want to go. I just want to go out."
"It's okay, we'll discuss it before we go out."
"I thought so too." Zheng Wei had accomplished something important and looked relieved. She asked Yin Mu, "Mu Mu, do you have any good suggestions?"
"Not really." Yin Mu shook his head regretfully. "Why don't you check out the dating manual? Maybe there's a place you want to go."
Zheng Wei frowned: "What a hassle, let's wait and see later."
Yin Mu laughed and reached out to push her shoulder: "Look at you, you're the one who wants to go out and play, but you're the one who finds it troublesome."
Zheng Wei was pushed by her and swayed twice like a tumbler. She asked, "What about you? Aren't you planning on going out today?"
"No, no one asked me out." Yin Mu joked, "I was originally thinking about whether I could ask Lu Zilin out, but you got there first."
Before Zheng Wei could say anything, Lu Zilin happened to walk past them. Hearing this, he stopped and asked, "Huh? Is this true?"
Yin Mu turned around suddenly and met Lu Zilin's face. His smile froze on his face and he explained with difficulty, "Uh, I was just joking with Zheng Wei."
"Is that so? That's really disappointing." Lu Zilin sighed, "It hurts my pride a bit."
“…”
Zheng Wei covered her mouth, trying hard not to laugh out loud.
[Zheng Wei, if you really can't hold it back, just laugh! ]
【Hahahaha, isn't this embarrassing?】
[It was hilarious, the cricket was caught behind the scenes by the person involved.]
【Now Yin Muke no longer dares to speak nonsense. 】
[Stop, stop! Lu Zilin, don't embarrass our Yin Mu!]
…
After Zhong Mengyuan and Chen Qinglin, Zheng Wei and Lu Zilin left, only Yin Mu, Zhou Jingyu, Zhang Yang and Jiang Nanyu were left in the villa.
Yin Mu knew she'd be a third wheel if she stayed with the three of them, so she tactfully hid in the upstairs living room, ignoring the camera angle. She didn't know when she'd be able to return, but since she'd have to work, she might as well take advantage of the time now to sort out her thoughts.
Perhaps because she had been playing all day these days and had no pressure, Yin Mu felt that her mind seemed to be much clearer. She recalled the overall framework of her last version of the outline and made revisions based on it. She was so focused that she forgot the time until Zhou Jingyu came upstairs and interrupted her thoughts.
Seeing her writing seriously, Zhou Jingyu came over and asked curiously, "What are you writing?"
Yin Mu was startled by her voice and immediately closed his notebook, saying, "Nothing, what's the matter?"
"Nothing, I was just bored so I came up to see you."
Yin Mu responded, but didn't want to continue writing in front of Zhou Jingyu, so he put his hands on the notebook and chatted with her for no reason: "What are Jiang Nanyu and the others doing?"
"Jiang Nanyu is teaching Zhang Yang how to play guitar."
Yin Mu raised his eyebrows: "Oh? I didn't realize he was so studious."
Zhou Jingyu smiled and said, "No, I'm complaining about how difficult it is right now. I'm even saying I'm going to give up."
Yin Mu followed with a smile: "Three points of enthusiasm, everyone is like this."
Zhou Jingyu asked again: "Aren't you bored staying alone? Come downstairs and play with us for a while."
Yin Mu casually responded: "It's okay for you three to play."
“It’s more fun when there are more people.”
Yin Mu had always been polite to Zhou Jingyu, and it was difficult for him to refuse her forcefully, so he asked again, "So what do you want to play?"
"I don't know. Ask them. I don't think Zhang Yang has much patience for guitar anymore."
Yin Mu looked at the time and thought that Zhong Mengyuan, Zheng Wei and the others would be back soon, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay then."
The two of them went downstairs together and saw Jiang Nanyu holding a guitar, strumming the strings intermittently. Zhang Yang was slumped in a chair beside him, looking listless. "I'm not playing anymore. This thing doesn't suit me. Let's meet at the gym some other day."
Jiang Nanyu pressed the guitar strings and smiled helplessly: "Then I can't compare with you."
【The battle between art students and sports students.】
[Zhang Yang's damn competitive spirit is back again.]
[Don't feel bad for Zhang Yang. He has his strengths, and you have your weaknesses!]
【Hahahaha, the sister in front is so nice to hear.】
[Hey? Yin Mu is coming down. Where have you been hiding this afternoon?]
…
Yin Mu asked knowingly, "Zhang Yang, have you finished your mission?"
Zhang Yang remained motionless, only raising his eyelids. "What for? You're coming here just to mock me."
"No way, I admire your eagerness to learn. Who would have thought you would give up so quickly?"
"That's difficult, okay?" Zhang Yang retorted unconvincedly, "Why don't you try it yourself and see if you can learn it in such a short time."
Yin Mu waved his hand: "Forget it, I still have self-knowledge, so I won't make it difficult for myself."
"It's actually not that difficult," Jiang Nanyu said. "If you just want to develop it as a hobby, it's enough to calm down and study seriously for a month or two. Playing one or two simple songs is no problem."
Yin Mu asked: "What if I want to reach your level? When did you start learning?"
"I learned piano when I was little, and only started learning guitar in high school." Jiang Nanyu paused, a little embarrassed. "To be honest, I started learning guitar because I saw a boy in my class who played guitar well and was very popular with the girls."
"Oh—your intentions are not pure."
Everyone laughed.
Jiang Nanyu coughed lightly and said, "I was young and naive. I didn't expect that I would have to rely on this to make a living now."
“Isn’t it a very happy thing to develop a hobby into a career?”
Jiang Nanyu laughed at himself: "How can I call this a career?"
Yin Mu smiled slightly: "You can't say that. There is a long way to go. Maybe one day you will become famous."
"Then I'll borrow your good words?"
Yin Mu was not modest and waved his hand: "No problem, no problem."
【What's going on with Yin Mu feeling a little warm today? 】
【Our Yin Mu is very warm! 】
[Jiangnan Yu's words are so sad.]
[Well, it’s not easy.]
[Small success can be achieved through hard work, but big success depends on luck.]
