Chapter 153
When it was time for lunch, Shen Yueshu wanted to find an excuse to leave so as to avoid being with Wei Zhou and causing them mutual embarrassment.
But Yitu's words still kept the person.
Shen Yueshu's current mental state is not good. She probably won't be able to eat well if she goes back alone.
The problems between him and Wei Zhou could not be avoided by just this one meal.
Shen Yueshu naturally knew this, but he just didn't know how to face the strange yet familiar Weizhou again.
After the aunt prepared the meal, Xu Heng went to help serve the dishes and rice diligently.
Yitu had nothing to do, so he went in to help.
“Tuer, do you think there’s something… weird between Brother Shen and Brother Wei?”
Xu Heng turned around to look at Shen Yueshu who was sitting in the living room watching TV and asked in a low voice.
"They haven't said a word since they entered the door."
"Maybe they had a fight. I thought they didn't have any conflicts."
Xu Heng didn't know the severity of the matter, and it was the first time he encountered such a situation, so he was not too worried.
After all, any player who has heard of the Blade CP knows that the two have a love that is stronger than gold, and their tacit understanding is like a part of each other's body.
Especially after spending so many days together, Xu Heng had no doubt about the depth of their relationship.
"Go up and call them down for dinner." Yi Tu didn't know how to respond, so he had to change the subject.
"I asked Ou Cheng to go and shout." Xu Heng said.
Yitu nodded without saying anything more, turned around and brought the dishes to the table.
He was paying attention to Shen Yueshu's situation, so he glanced towards the sofa.
Wei Zhou, wearing light blue home clothes, came down from the stairs at some point.
He was sitting next to Shen Yueshu, with half a seat's distance between them, which seemed a bit deliberate.
Yi Tu couldn't hear what was said between the two. He only saw Wei Zhou's hand, which was about to pat Shen Yueshu's shoulder, stopped abruptly in mid-air.
He was watching intently and didn't even notice that there was someone suddenly behind him.
It was not until Jiang Hanyu's voice rang almost next to his ear that Yi Tu came to his senses belatedly.
"What are you looking at so seriously?" The man looked down at him with a faint smile in his eyes.
"Nothing." Yitu pushed his strong chest and said with a smile:
"Go get your chopsticks, it's time to eat."
Jiang Hanyu didn't move, his hand stroking the back of his fair neck, his eyes fixed thoughtfully on the two people in the living room.
"Is something wrong?"
Although Jiang Hanyu was not very aware of the subtle changes between Shen Yueshu and Wei Zhou, he paid attention to Yi Tu's every word and action.
Even with just a glance, he still noticed something.
Yitu had no intention of hiding it, so he said:
"I'll tell you in detail after dinner, okay?"
Jiang Hanyu nodded, "Okay, I'll go get the chopsticks."
The six of them had always had their own fixed seats, but today Shen Yueshu did not sit next to Wei Zhou, but sat next to Yi Tu.
Jiang Hanyu, who was pushed away, frowned slightly and had to sit on Weizhou's left. The two of them disliked each other.
Xu Heng saw it, laughed secretly, and said nothing.
Shen Yueshu was quite calm and composed, as if she didn't see anything. She chatted with Yi Tu while eating.
"I heard that the rewards at pseudo-god-level card games are usually very generous."
"If nothing unexpected happens, who will be ranked first between you and the captain?"
Yitu didn't say anything, but Jiang Hanyu smiled and said:
"The first one is Tubao."
His casual shout shocked everyone at the dinner table.
"Ahem!" Xu Heng was choked and quickly waved his hands to explain:
"Oops! There are a lot of bones in the silver carp today. I'll go to the kitchen and drink some vinegar before coming back."
Xu Heng stood up and deliberately winked at Yi Tu. Before leaving, he did not forget to say to Wei Zhou:
"Brother Wei, you have to be the one to catch the silver carp. If we try to eat it, we'll both end up choking."
After he said that, he really went to the kitchen, which made his aunt laugh and cry, and she chased after him and shouted.
"Silly child, don't really get jealous! If you really can't help it, auntie will give you a big steamed bun to wash it down!"
"It's okay, Auntie. I've loved drinking vinegar since I was a child."
"Xu Heng is a really smart kid." Yi Tu said softly.
Ou Cheng smiled, and when he mentioned Xu Heng, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and he teased:
"Indeed, he has been smart since he was young."
With Xu Heng's action, the atmosphere at the dinner table obviously eased a lot.
Shen Yueshu also smiled, then picked up a piece of silver carp and carefully picked out all the bones.
But this time, he did not hand the fish pieces to Weizhou as usual, but kept them in the bowl.
Shen Yueshu doesn't like eating fish, but she is very good at removing fish bones.
He always explained to others that he had a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder and liked to pick fish bones because it was easy to get a different kind of satisfaction.
However, the fact is that Weizhou likes to eat fish, especially silver carp, which has delicious meat but many small bones.
Shen Yueshu's obsessive-compulsive disorder is fake, but the satisfaction she gets is real.
It’s just that his sense of satisfaction comes from selfless dedication to the one he loves. Unfortunately, Weizhou has never seen through his disguise.
He even really believed the reason Shen Yueshu made up, and then enjoyed being loved with peace of mind.
Until today, everything has been revealed and there is no need for them to hide anything anymore.
Shen Yueshu's love is like the fillet of fish, which is quietly stranded in the bowl, waiting to be cleaned up and thrown into the trash can as lunch is over.
Wei Zhou's gaze was very heavy, and he hardly left Shen Yueshu for even a step.
When he saw the piece of fish fillet discarded aside, his heart felt as if it were pierced by sharp thorns and was in unbearable pain.
Maybe it was because Wei Zhou stared at her for too long, but Shen Yueshu looked up inadvertently and her gaze met his.
Shen Yueshu was stunned for a moment, then quickly returned to normal.
"Do you want to eat?" he asked Weizhou.
Wei Zhou was stunned. He wanted to say yes, but the words came out of his mouth as a cold rejection.
"No, you eat it. My throat has been uncomfortable lately."
Shen Yueshu's heart trembled slightly, and she suppressed the sour feeling that surged into her nose, nodded and said okay.
The cleaned fish pieces had no bones, but Weizhou was still afraid that it would hurt his throat.
They all knew in their hearts that Weizhou didn't want the fish, he just didn't want his love.
Even the excuses are so bad.
Shen Yueshu numbly stuffed the fish chunks into her mouth, unable to taste the deliciousness of the meat, only the faint smell of fish.
Looking at Shen Yueshu's stiff face, Wei Zhou realized that he had said the wrong thing and caused Shen Yueshu to misunderstand.
He didn't dislike Shen Yueshu at all, but he had to force himself to keep his distance.
It was because they were too close in the past, and he had no defenses at all, which led to the deviation of Shen Yueshu's feelings.
Thinking of this, Wei Zhou felt mixed emotions.
"By the way, Hanyu, I've been forgetting to ask you." At this time, Yitu changed the subject without leaving a trace and asked curiously:
"What exactly is Kan Xingyuan's mandatory mission, to kill Zhong Qing?"
Jiang Hanyu shook his head, "No, his mandatory task is not to fall in love with Zhong Qing."
Hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across Yitu's face.
Kan Xingyuan's mandatory mission is indeed related to Zhong Qing. Although Kan Xingyuan is a pervert, in a sense, he and Zhong Qing are not in opposition.
Therefore, Zhong Qing and Kan Xingyuan’s missions do not conflict; what conflicts is the subsequent plot development.
Kan Xingyuan has no feelings for Zhong Qing. He monitors him, controls him, and may even kill him like a pet.
But the only impossible thing is to fall in love with the person you are observing.
What's dramatic is that Zhong Qing is Yi Tu, and Jiang Hanyu was destined to be unable to complete the task from the very beginning.
Unless the two of them are unable to recover their memories, the plot will not go off track.
However, Yitu recovered his memory early on. Thinking about it, it was most likely that the system was operating intentionally.
"I feel like I'm being plotted against." Yitu sighed softly.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, the Qianxiang card field may seem simple, but the calmer it looks on the surface, the less you will notice the undercurrents surging inside.
The system gives each player a different role and even creates an identical real life.
Whether it is Zhong Qing or Kan Xingyuan, they all need to work and go home in their respective fields.
The players are deliberately separated, and only at night do they gather briefly in the building, making it difficult to pay attention to the direction of each person's plot.
As the game unfolds, everyone experiences intense and complex emotions, all of which Qian Xiang loves.
So to some extent, Qianxiang's resurrection is both accidental and inevitable.
The real difficulty of the card field lies in defeating the immortal Qianxiang.
If it weren't for the existence of Little Nightmare Ji Lei, Yi Tu would have been provided with a convenient breakthrough.
Even if Jiang Hanyu is invincible, he cannot defeat someone who is exactly like him.
This is the real horror of Qianxiang. Immortality is its characteristic, and insight into consciousness is its ability.
And cloning all living beings is obviously an unsolvable problem.
It was rare for Jiang Hanyu to be willing to tell others about his experience at the card game. This card game was indeed surprisingly ingenious.
"If any one of you is missing, I'm afraid none of you will make it out alive." Shen Yueshu sighed.
The snowy area created by Xiao Yu was both a restriction and a check and balance. It checked the demonic encirclement in the sea of blood, but also restricted the actions of other players.
Especially Ji Lei, who was a little nightmare, almost froze to death there, not to mention using her skill cards in her sleep.
I’m afraid that if I close my eyes, I will really fall asleep.
Yi Tu's existence seemed to have no effect, but he used the little nightmare to break the trap set by Qian Xiang.
If he hadn't been operating in secret, once the snow melted, everyone else would have been left waiting to die.
Jiang Hanyu will not be an exception.
"Yes, if Han Yu hadn't been killed by the forced mission, he should have been the first in the score." Yi Tu nodded.
Jiang Hanyu's performance in the card game was no worse than his, but because he had not completed the mandatory task, he was able to leave the card game by relying on his marital relationship.
Therefore, apart from the basic game rewards, his personal game scores were reset to zero.
