Chapter 41 The Evolution of a Class Beauty

Pu Yu walked to the fork in the road with his arm around Ning Song's shoulder.

Ning Song said, "Good night, Brother Yu."

"Wait a minute." Pu Yu said, "I'll take you downstairs."

"No, I'll run back."

"Didn't your brother Yan just tell you not to be alone?"

Ning Song smiled and said, "Okay."

Pu Yu stopped holding Ning Song's shoulder and said, "You should listen to him."

Ning Song said, "I also listen to your words."

Pu Yu was silent for a moment, then hummed and said, "Not enough."

After saying that, she took the empty milk carton from his hand and threw it into the trash can next to her.

Ning Song suddenly turned his head and looked behind him.

Pu Yu looked back and vaguely saw someone behind him.

However, they were not sure whether the other person was following them, but this person made both of them alert.

Pu Yu sent him to the bottom of Building No. 4.

Ning Song asked, "Would you like to go up and sit for a while?"

"No, I'm going to go back and take a shower."

He watched Ning Song enter the dormitory from downstairs, and then stood downstairs for a while.

I met Chen Mo coming back with his bag and said hello to him.

"Looking for Ning Song?"

Pu Yu said: "No."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Chen Mo was looking at Pu Yu's back downstairs, and then saw Li You coming over.

He was not familiar with Li You and tried his best to avoid dealing with boys like him, so he pretended not to see it and went upstairs.

Pu Yu took a few steps, raised his arm and sniffed. There seemed to be still the scent of Ningsong's neck on it.

From that night on, his love for Ning Song was no longer just spiritual love, but just a little sexual desire.

The latter seemed to wake up, and his love began to burn. Then, when it was burning very vigorously, suddenly a thunderbolt struck.

On Friday afternoon, as soon as the rehearsal ended, Ning Song and Sheng Yan went to Xingyue.

Pu Yu had agreed with Ning Song before that he would go to Xingyue on Friday to see his working environment.

This was Ning Song's invitation, mainly to reassure Pu Yu.

Of course Pu Yu wanted to go.

He felt that this was a sign of his close relationship with Ning Song, and he should let Sheng Yan see it.

So after dinner, Pu Yu went with Qiao Qiao.

As soon as I walked in, I saw Sheng Yan, who was wearing a waiter's uniform, well-groomed, tall and long-legged. He was talking to a few young ladies with a smile on his face. He was as eloquent as ever and made them laugh.

When Sheng Yan saw Pu Yu, the smile on his face faded.

Qiao Qiao greeted him, and Sheng Yan came over, looked at Pu Yu, and said, "Have the two young masters made reservations in advance?"

Qiao Qiao smiled: "It's booked."

Sheng Yan took them to the front desk for confirmation, and then led them to a private room.

Qiao Qiao asked, "Where's An Ning?"

"He's busy." Sheng Yan asked, "Why, isn't my service enough?"

"Can I order a waiter?" Pu Yu asked.

Sheng Yan glanced at him, and before he could answer, Qiao Qiao said, "We know each other, so of course it's OK, and we can even ask them to give us a fruit plate."

Sheng Yan said: "You have to give a tip."

Sheng Yan led them into a private room and asked, "Can you two have fun?"

Qiao Qiao said: "Of course I won't sing karaoke with him, Deng Xun and his friends will also come later, as well as Duo Duo and Feng Xiang."

Sheng Yan hinted at something and said with a smile, "That's OK."

"Where's Aning? Ask him to come over." Qiao Qiao said, "Tell him that Brother Yu is here."

Sheng Yan said, "Brother Yu is really generous."

Pu Yu didn't comment, and Sheng Yan smiled and closed the door and went out.

A man like Pu Yu is so obsessed that he can even chase her to a KTV. It seems like he is really into it.

It's also really hard-working.

Ning Song hadn't arrived yet, but Fan Duoduo and his friends came, and soon after, Deng Xun and his friends also came. The box immediately became lively.

When Ning Song arrived, Qiao Qiao and Fan Duoduo were already having fun, Deng Xun and Pu Yu were chatting, and Pu Yu was holding a can of beer in his hand. When he saw him come in, he sat up straight and put down the beer in his hand.

Ning Song put down the fruit plate in his hand and said, "Brother Xun."

Deng Xun smiled and said, "Are you working here?"

Ning Song nodded, then looked at Pu Yu: "Call me when you sing, I'll come and listen to what you sing."

Pu Yu asked: "Can I call?"

Ning Song pointed to the work ID card on his chest and said, "Call the front desk and call me at this number. I'll come over if I'm not busy."

As soon as he finished speaking, his earphone started to ring, and Ning Song hurried out. This was the time when the restaurant was busiest with customers.

Pu Yu went over to choose a song. After he had chosen one, Qiao Qiao asked him, "Do you need me to lead the way for you?"

Pu Yu said, "No need."

The room was very lively. Fan Duoduo and Qiao Qiao were more lively than a whole class, especially Qiao Qiao, who was born to create atmosphere. Deng Xun said that the noise gave him a headache, so he leaned on Deng Xun and whispered in his ear.

Qiao Qiao and Deng Xun are more like bickering friends in public. Pu Yu sometimes feels that Ning Song and Sheng Yan's relationship is a bit similar to theirs, except that it's not so "tense".

But the tension between Deng Xun and Qiao Qiao is more like a spark, and the back-and-forth bickering is an emotional touch. As one of the few people who knows their secret, Pu Yu always looks at them. He has noticed it and is very jealous of Deng Xun.

If he could be like Ning Song, he couldn't imagine how happy he would be.

He just wants this special position and feeling that is different from others.

Be unique and special.

"Brother Yu, it's your song's turn." Fan Duoduo shouted.

Pu Yu called the front desk and asked Ning Song to come over. The front desk lady apologized in a very sweet voice: "I'm sorry, sir, 0028 is busy. Can I pass on your message later?"

Pu Yu then cut in the song that came after.

Qiao Qiao asked: "You don't want to sing anymore?"

"You sing first."

As he spoke, he came out of the private room.

He actually doesn't like singing and his singing is not very good, but if Ningsong wants to listen, he can sing.

The corridor was lit with a reddish glow, and the carpet had a red velvet texture. He stood in the corridor for a while, and suddenly saw Ning Song coming out of another private room, followed by a familiar face from their class, Jin Yang.

Ning Song was also surprised when he saw Jin Yang.

He and Jin Yang didn't have much interaction because Jin Yang didn't like him and never talked to him. Jin Yang was a member of the student union and was rarely in the classroom.

Although Qiao Qiao told him that Jin Yang liked Pu Yu very much, to be honest, Jin Yang rarely talked to Pu Yu. His admiration was mainly reflected in the difference in treatment. He was arrogant and had a bad temper. He would talk to other people in the class with his nose in the air, but as long as Pu Yu was around, he would be like a little sheep and very quiet.

Ning Song once briefly supported this couple because he knew that treating people differently was a very common form of expression in romance novels. A domineering and beautiful woman played the role of a silent admirer in love, and this setting was also very touching.

But Pu Yu and Jin Yang have never had any interaction.

And he has no intersection.

But when he was called into the private room and saw Jin Yang's familiar face, he had a premonition that something was about to happen.

Sure enough, Jin Yang called him out alone and said he wanted to talk to him.

The layout inside Star Hyatt is intricate. There are two restrooms on the first floor, connected by a long circular corridor in the middle. There are large sinks on both sides of the restrooms. There is a compartment outside the sink for guests to rest. There are sofas and various drinks. There is also a small balcony in the corner for guests to smoke.

They went through the lounge and out onto the small balcony.

The balcony is very small, and apart from a small coffee table, only two people can stand there.

Jin Yang got straight to the point and asked directly when they got to the balcony: "Are you and Pu Yu in love?"

“No, no,” Ning Song explained, “We are just very good friends.”

"So do you like him?"

"I like it." Ning Song wanted to tease him because of his arrogant look.

Jin Yang's brows immediately furrowed.

"But it's not the kind of liking you think." Ning Song said, "I don't like boys."

Jin Yang didn't quite believe what he said, and squinted at him. There was no light on the balcony, so the light was a little dim, but Jin Yang's face was still bright and shining. He asked him, "Are you two really not in that kind of relationship? You really don't like him? Why do you dislike him?"

It seemed that in his eyes, it was natural for anyone to like Pu Yu.

He regarded Pu Yu as so precious. Ning Song was really happy for Pu Yu and asked, "Do you like him very much?"

Jin Yang asked: "What do you think? He is mine!"

Ning Song said, "I see you two don't have much contact normally. If you like him, you should take the initiative. He is a person who you can't pursue without taking the initiative."

It is impossible for a male protagonist like Pu Yu, who is set as a flower on the mountain top, to actively pursue others. He must be entangled and beaten by the little sun before he falls into the world of love.

"Do you know what happens to those who actively pursue him? Are you trying to hurt me?" Jin Yang looked at him and said, "Forget it. He doesn't even like me, so how could he like you? I am just sick and I am asking you out."

After saying this, Young Master Jin went out.

Ning Song: “…”

He really said something extra.

He cleared the ashtray on the balcony and then came out.

When he got downstairs, the receptionist called him, "Ningsong, the guest from Room 306 is calling you."

Ning Song responded and brought a small fruit plate. This was the unspoken rule in their KTV. When they met acquaintances, they would give some food and drinks, and the front desk pretended not to see it.

Ning Song carried the fruit plate to Room 306, opened the door, and saw Qiao Qiao and Fan Duoduo screaming and wailing while singing "Everest".

Qiao Qiao sang this song on purpose. This song is his regular repertoire. He wanted to annoy others. Sure enough, Deng Xun covered his ears with his hands.

It was obvious that the person he was making trouble for today was Deng Xun.

Instead, Pu Yuan was sitting quietly alone on the small sofa near the door. He was wearing a blue sweater that was quite youthful and not in line with his daily style of dressing. It made him look very fair and well-behaved.

Ning Song held the fruit plate and pretended to be shocked: "The singing is so beautiful!"

Qiao Qiao and the others burst into laughter. Fan Duoduo took his fruit plate, hugged him and handed him the microphone.

Ning Song sang a few lines, and Sheng Yan came over at some point. He leaned his hands against the door and watched them go crazy with a smile.

It is the youthful happiness and recklessness that boys should have.

After a song was over, Qiao Qiao handed him a small piece of watermelon. Ning Song said, "I would eat outside if I could. Why would I eat here? I brought this here with great difficulty."

Ning Song said as he moved past Deng Xun and the others and asked Pu Yu, "Brother Yu, did you sing?"

Pu Yu looked up at him. The lights in the private room were turned off, leaving only the chaotic ambient lights. He couldn't see the faces of the people clearly. The music was too loud. He didn't hear what Pu Yu said clearly, and then he heard Sheng Yan call him: "The foreman is here."

Ning Song got up and went out immediately after hearing this.

Sheng Yan smiled and hugged his shoulders, whispering something in his ear. There was bright light at the door, shining on their youthful faces, and then the door closed and the light went out.

Ning Song never came back after this time. He happened to come to this floor and took a look. He opened the door and stood at the door before being called away. Sheng Yan came a few times and saw Pu Yu sitting on the sofa, taking a sip of beer from time to time, and not singing. He thought Pu Yu was pretending to be special, like a green tea fan.

They waited until about ten o'clock and planned to go out for a midnight snack. Because Ning Song had specifically told them to, Qiao Qiao took good care of Pu Yu: "Brother Yu, come with us."

"I'm not going." Pu Yu said.

He looked a little tired and in a bad mood.

Qiao Qiao felt a little embarrassed. He thought that maybe he and Fan Duoduo were too noisy tonight. Mr. Pu must have never encountered such a noisy situation and could not stand it.

"Just eat something. Aning even specifically asked me to take you with her."

As he spoke, Ning Song ran down.

He ran over with the tray in his hand and asked, "Are you leaving?"

"We're leaving now after just a little while." Qiao Qiao said, "I asked Brother Yu to go eat with me, but he refused to go."

Ning Song looked at Pu Yu and said, "Let's go. If you guys haven't left by the time I get off work, I'll go too. Let's go to Hengyuanji. Brother Yan and I have eaten there several times. Their barbecue is especially delicious, and the environment is good. It's not far from the intersection of Huaihai Road and Binjiang Road."

"I'm going back to rest." Pu Yu said.

"Maybe we were too noisy." Qiao Qiao laughed.

Ning Song smiled: "You really aren't going?"

He also wanted Pu Yu to get to know Deng Xun and others, as well as Sheng Yan.

Make more friends.

Pu Yu hummed. The light in the hall was very bright, perhaps too dazzling, so he didn't even look at Ning Song's face.

But Sheng Yan came to stab them again. When he heard that they were going to Hengyuanji, he said, "Oh no, Ning Song and I's secret base has been discovered!"

Pu Yu walked straight out.

Ning Song said to Sheng Yan, "Brother Yan, please keep an eye on the foreman for me. I'll go out and see them off."

As he spoke, he chased after him and walked to Pu Yu's side.

Sheng Yan couldn't stand Pu Yu's aloofness. He thought Pu Yu did it on purpose to gain sympathy.

Ning Song just fell for it. Ning Song looked like the type who needed to be taken care of, but he was actually a macho man who loved to take care of things and take care of others.

Ning Song and Sheng Yan got off work early today, around 11:40, and still took Sheng Yan's electric car to Hengyuanji.

There was a yellow McLaren parked outside Hengyuanji. Sheng Yan parked his electric car next to it, looked around the car, and said, "Deng Xun looks so stable, but he actually drives a sports car of this color."

Ning Song thought, this is the contrast of the male protagonist.

This shows that Deng Xun has the soul of a beast!

Pray for his good friend Qiao Qiao.

After entering, the two of them went to choose food. Ning Song made a phone call and asked, "Are you asleep?"

He even remembered to call Pu Yu and asked if he wanted him to bring some.

Sheng Yan was listening nearby and was surprised that Ning Song still cared about Pu Yu.

He felt that no matter what kind of relationship it was, if he wanted to be the closest person to Ning Song, he had to keep Pu Yu away from him first.

Because there were so many people, they ate faster this time. After leaving Hengyuanji, Qiao Qiao asked, "How are you going back?"

"Take my car." Sheng Yan said.

Because it was too late, Qiao Qiao looked around and saw a McLaren in a dark car: "Where's your car?"

Sheng Yan spread out his arms and showed Qiao Qiao his small electric car.

Fan Duoduo and the others became happy.

"Do you ride an electric bike?" Qiao Qiao asked.

Sheng Yan pushed his electric bike over and asked Ning Song to sit on it.

Qiao Qiao: "... Aning, we will take you there in Brother Deng's car."

"You can send Duoduo off." Ning Song said, "I'll just ride in Brother Yan's favorite car. It's not the first time I've ridden in it."

Fan Duoduo said: "I called a taxi, it will be here in two minutes."

"Then just let Brother Xun take you back." Ning Song said to Qiao Qiao, "It's not convenient for you to take me back, and it's not convenient for you to take such a long detour."

"Just get on and let's go." Sheng Yan urged him.

He sat on it and grabbed Sheng Yan's waist: "Let's go."

Qiao Qiao just watched Sheng Yan riding his electric bike and taking Ning Song away.

Ning Song didn't look back, he just raised his arms and waved his hands lightly, very cool.

Under the street lights, the two of them gradually went away.

Deng Xun asked Qiao Qiao: "Are they in love?"

Qiao Qiao looked at him and said, "Do you understand how we straight men get along with each other?"

Deng Xun was speechless: "Get in the car, let me see how straight you are."

Qiao Qiao raised his leg to kick him, but just then the car that Fan Duoduo called arrived, so he put his leg down.

Ningsong now likes riding this kind of small electric car. In this season, with the breeze blowing, it is very comfortable.

"I plan to buy myself a small electric car after I get my salary," he said to Sheng Yan.

Sheng Yan froze for a moment and said, "Are you uncomfortable sitting on my seat?"

"I can't even stretch my legs." Ning Song said, "There's nowhere to put my long legs."

Sheng Yan said, "You're spending money lavishly right after you make it. Do you know that you still have to pay to register your car?"

"Do I have to pay to register the car?" Ning Song asked.

Sheng Yan said: "And it's very expensive, so you should just sit in my car and let your long legs rest in vain."

He sent Ning Song outside the Pu family mansion and said, "What are you going to do tomorrow? Come to my house if you have nothing to do."

Ning Song said, "No, I have to go to the New Bay Area with Brother Yu to attend a meeting tomorrow."

Sheng Yan was stunned and asked, "What meeting?"

"GDC is a game developer conference," Ning Song said excitedly, "many great people will be there."

Sheng Yan pursed his lips, then smiled and said, "That sounds pretty cool."

"It's very rare. It was Brother Yu who got me the spot. I may not be able to go to Xingyue tomorrow night. If I can't go then, please ask for leave for me. I will try to come back as soon as possible." Ning Song said, "Let's go, drive slowly."

Sheng Yan watched Ning Song go in, then drove his electric car home.

He really doesn't know what GDC is.

I feel that Pu Yu is not that dull and is quite good at pleasing others.

Because they talked about games during dinner today, Ning Song said that Pu Yu’s dormitory also had a lot of PC games. Ning Song praised Pu Yu and said how good he was at playing games.

How good can a mute person be at playing games?

Ning Songjing went upstairs quietly. When she passed by the door of Pu Yu's room, she listened quietly. When she heard nothing, she returned to her room.

He was very tired today and went to bed without taking a shower. The next day, when he washed up and went downstairs to have breakfast, Pu Yu had already gone to training.

Pu Yu is actually very busy as he has company matters to attend to and also has a lot of subjects to study on his own.

People just work really hard.

After breakfast, he went to the gymnasium to watch Pu Yu training. Today they were fully armed for training, and everyone wore helmets and protective gear, but he still recognized Pu Yu at a glance and stood in the crowd to cheer for Pu Yu.

Pu Yu must have seen him, looking at him through his helmet, and was knocked to the ground.

The collisions between the rugby balls were very intense, which frightened Ning Song. After that, he dared not speak, but cheered for Pu Yu with his fists clenched.

Pu Yu's performance was still the best of the game.

Ning Song waited for them to finish their training, and then waited for Pu Yu to change his clothes, and then waited for him at the exit where he bought water last time.

He wasn't thirsty, so he bought a bottle of water this time.

When Pu Yu came out, he threw the bottle of water to him again.

Pu Yu took it in his hand. His hair was sweaty and he smelled of sweat, which was a bit strong, as if he hadn't taken a shower yesterday.

Ning Song said, "Are you okay from the fall just now?"

Pu Yu said, "It's okay."

"Is that guy targeting you on purpose? I saw him bump into you several times on purpose."

Pu Yu hummed and said, "It's a little contradictory."

"Aren't you guys on the same team? Why is he like this?" Ning Song said, "Luckily you beat him up badly. Athletes, being a wimp is the most shameful thing!"

Pu Yu smiled lightly, and then the smile faded.

"I bought some sports drinks for you to drink." Ning Song looked at his face and said.

He thought Pu Yu looked a little tired.

Pu Yu unscrewed the bottle cap and took two sips.

After returning home and packing up a bit, Ning Song went to the New Bay District with Pu Yu in an excited mood.

Pu Yu even customized a casual suit for him.

It fits me perfectly!

But when it comes to wearing a suit, Pu Yu is still the most handsome.

All the best words can be used to describe him.

He also met Xiaobai and the others. When Xiaobai and the others chatted with him before, they thought he was someone of the same age. They were shocked to find out that he was a high school student. When they saw him in person, they couldn't recognize him.

The boss had already told them that their fate was unfair, but they didn't expect Ning Song to be so promising at a young age!

They first attended a group exhibition together and listened to a speech. At noon, Ning Song and Pu Yu attended a luncheon open only to some people in the industry.

Ning Song met Xie Qingting at this luncheon and was fortunate enough to see Xie Qingting's latest masterpiece.

After watching it, he felt that his "Black Rose Campus" was simply a defective product.

There is a world of difference.

Watching it on the big screen, Xie Qingting's game is truly stunning, with graphics and music as gorgeous as a work of art.

No wonder his famous works are collected by museums.

Ning Song was very excited. He leaned on Pu Yu's shoulder and said, "If we can make such a good game one day..."

The music was magnificent, the audience burst into applause, the spotlight shone on the master, and everyone was thinking about their future in a peaceful and cheerful manner.

Pu Yu thought that Ning Song had done nothing wrong, even though he felt so uncomfortable.

Originally he didn't know whether Ning Song liked boys or not.

And he already knew that Ning Song didn't like him.

The secret admirer actually knows everything but is unwilling to face it. The conversation he overheard only makes him face the reality early.

Ning Song said, if one day we make a game like this.

“One day” is the future, and “we” is him and Ning Song.

Isn't that enough?

For a secret admirer, it's tempting enough.

He said to Ning Song, "Of course I will. I will bear witness with you."

Ning Song seemed to have seen their possible future and turned to look at him with a smile.

He did not see love in Ningsong's eyes, but he saw his longing and light for his ideal.

He could continue to love her and be more careful. He could stay with Ning Song until he fell in love with someone else.

Ning Song felt that Pu Yu's personality was really a bit unpredictable.

Because in the morning he felt Pu Yu was still weak, as if he had not rested well, but in the afternoon he felt that he had recovered a little bit of energy and turned into the person he was most familiar with in the past few days.

They attended seminars, met with vendors, and visited exhibitions together, and he really didn't have time to go to Starwood in the evening.

He called Sheng Yan and asked him to ask for leave for him.

Sheng Yan asked, "Do you have any activities tonight?"

"Yes, we are going to have dinner alone with Xie Qingting tonight!"

Ning Song was very excited.

Pu Yu was listening nearby, thinking coldly in his heart, does Sheng Yan know that Ning Song is not interested in boys?

Do you know it will be painful?

And there is Shen Lingsi who has many tricks up his sleeve.

Thinking of this, the jealousy I had felt towards them these days turned into a sour and refreshing feeling.

No one else will have it any better than him anyway.

Thinking of this, I felt much better.

【Author’s words】

People who have unrequited love are very good at settling for the next best thing.

Pu Yu: The main point is that as long as my love rival is no better than me, it’s fine.
