Three-day tour
"If you ask me, you should just go up and have sex with that guy right now." Shi Zhimu jumped down from the wall nonchalantly.
Ou Ranyu turned around and looked at him coldly without saying a word.
Shi Zhimu smiled and said, "How about he fuck you?"
Ou Ranyu turned around and left, not even wanting to leave a trace of his back to Shi Zhimu.
"I know you're still rookies. You need to wait until you're my age at least." Shi Zhimu quickly caught up with them in three steps. "You're walking so fast! Wait a minute, I have something to tell you—"
"What's the matter that you called us here so early in the morning?" Zhu Baifeng was leaning back in his chair playing with his cell phone.
Chen Can kicked him and said, "It's almost ten o'clock. How dare you say it's early in the morning?"
"So early in the morning?" Li Yachang looked listless while hugging the pillow.
Chen Can saw that he was not in a good state and asked, "Why, were you jointly punished by the King and Little Leo?"
Zhu Baifeng quickly answered: "It means three nights."
"That's indeed... miserable."
Chen Can guessed that Li Yachang had been talked about for three nights, so he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he told them about his encounter with Shi Zhimu two days ago.
It was exactly the same, except for the fact that Shi Zhimu drugged him and what happened after that.
Zhu Baifeng propped up his chin and asked, "So Shi Mingxi might make a comeback?"
Li Yachang asked again: "Do you remember what special day the incident happened on?"
"There was only half a moon that night," Chen Can recalled.
Li Yachang corrected him: "That's called a crescent moon."
"Su sent us back to the day after the waning moon. If Shi Mingxi wants to make a comeback, he has to wait until the next waning moon. Or, the first quarter moon on the eighth day of next month."
Chen Can said, "What can we do if Shi Mingxi comes again next time?"
Zhu Baifeng said: "What else can I do? Don't you understand the principle of adapting to changing circumstances?"
Li Yachang is silent.
Chen Can still had concerns and asked again, "What do you think about duck intestines?"
Li Yachang came back to his senses: "I wonder if this will become a time loop. We stop Shi Mingxi, get sent back, and Shi Mingxi makes a comeback..."
Unless... unless Shi Mingxi never has a chance to turn things around, or Shi Mingxi makes them never see the light of day again.
This variable is traceable.
Chen Can slammed the table and said, "That's right. We have to find Su!"
Li Yachang said: "We must find Su before Shi Mingxi and find a way to completely overthrow Shi Mingxi, otherwise we will become Shi Mingxi's sacrifice."
Chen Can and Li Yachang looked at Zhu Baifeng at the same time.
A hint of fear flashed across Zhu Baifeng's peach blossom eyes.
"Although Su and I have the same face, we are from two different worlds..."
"If you look closely, you can see the difference." Li Yachang looked at him, "You are a little older than Su."
"That's called maturity!" Zhu Baifeng almost picked up a chair and chased Li Yachang to beat him.
"You are doing childish things with an old face." Li Yachang caught the tissue that flew over.
To be honest, Zhu Baifeng's face didn't look old at all, but rather youthful and vibrant. It was just that his features were more defined, and his baby fat had faded a bit.
"Just you wait!" Zhu Baifeng stood up and rushed over, strangling Li Yachang to the ground.
Li Yachang coughed and hit and kicked Zhu Baifeng.
The noise was too loud, and even though they were huddled in a small corner, they attracted a lot of people's attention. The young lady at the front desk couldn't help but look over here a few times.
Chen Can calmly drank the remaining few sips of fruit tea, stood up calmly, and calmly pulled Zhu Baifeng off Li Yachang.
"Let's go, duck intestines."
Chen Can held Zhu Baifeng in one hand and raised his hand towards Li Yachang.
When they got closer to the door, the three of them noticed that it was raining outside.
It was raining pretty hard, the kind that could drown people.
Chen Can stood at the doorway for a moment before his trouser legs were soaked. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but in the vast rain, a person holding an umbrella appeared. The umbrella was pulled down low, and only a pair of legs could be seen walking in the rain.
Chen Can looked more carefully and it seemed as if nothing had happened. The rain washed over the ground and the noise was like a flood.
"Light bulb! What did you see?" Zhu Baifeng yelled at him.
Chen Can pushed the two of them back: "Nothing, it's raining too hard, let's go back and hide first."
Chen Can sat by the window, leaning on the table to watch the rain outside. The rain was amazing, and it lasted until three in the afternoon.
It was neither early nor late, so Zhu Baifeng suggested going to Chen Can's house for dinner.
Zhu Baifeng walked backwards and said to Chen Can, "Let me be honest, although you are a third-rate student, your cooking is definitely first-rate."
"That's enough, piggy." Li Yachang tugged at Zhu Baifeng's sleeve, "You're going to fall."
Zhu Baifeng looked down and raised his middle finger at Li Yachang.
Chen Can smiled and patted Zhu Baifeng straight: "Walk properly, Zhubao."
"You again..."
Chen Can said hurriedly: "Speaking of cooking, don't you see who taught you this?"
Zhu Baifeng retorted, "Why don't you inherit Sister Rui's good character?"
Chen Can was completely shameless: "People have to make choices. It must be because I inherited my mother's beauty..."
As he was about to reach the door of his house, Chen Can's footsteps and words stopped abruptly.
Damn it, is that Ou Ranyu holding an umbrella at the door?!
Chen Can subconsciously turned his back.
Ou Ranyu heard footsteps, folded his umbrella and turned around.
Zhu Baifeng and Li Yachang looked at them in surprise.
"What's going on?" Zhu Baifeng asked.
Chen Can said stiffly: "Don't worry about it."
"Are you guys having a quarrel?" Li Yachang asked tentatively.
This is quite awkward.
Forget it, just pretend.
Chen Can deflated and turned around, just in time to meet Ou Ranyu's gaze. After a moment, Chen Can averted his gaze and pretended to be indifferent, "What's the matter?"
"Apologize." Ou Ranyu said briefly.
Not only Chen Can, but Zhu Baifeng and Li Yachang were also confused.
"There's no need to be so...formal." Chen Can said as he looked at the bags in Ou Ranyu's hands.
Ou Ranyu stepped aside to make way for the door: "And by the way, let's make up for the meal we had that night."
"Which night?"
"What were you doing?"
Li Yachang and Zhu Baifeng pursued him relentlessly.
"It's... the first night of the punishment." Chen Can rushed to the kitchen with Ou Ranyu's things, leaving the three of them looking at each other in bewilderment.
Chen Can is very good at hands-on work. He had already taken things apart within a few minutes of entering the kitchen.
Sea bass, potatoes, lettuce, beef balls, chicken wings, mushrooms...
Chen Can thought about it and immediately came up with a solution.
It’s not even four o’clock yet, so you can marinate the ingredients first.
Chen Can called out to the three people outside to go to the nearby supermarket to buy scraps.
After a while, someone came in.
Chen Can was looking at his phone with his back to the door and didn't notice who it was.
"Buying so quickly?" Chen Can said with his back to the people.
"They haven't come back yet. Do you need my help?" Ou Ranyu said suddenly.
Chen Can was so scared that his phone almost fell into the sink.
"You go and deal with that sea bass..." Chen Can put away his phone.
"Okay." Ou Ranyu responded and started to process the fish.
"You, that day..." Ou Ranyu hesitated to speak.
"Don't bring the knife too close to your hand." Chen Can reminded him while looking at his hand.
"Okay. That night I..." Ou Ranyu moved his hand down.
"Be gentler, don't use too much force." Chen Can interrupted him again.
"Do you feel it's presumptuous?" Ou Ranyu asked him.
This... is hard to say.
"I know what you mean. It's nothing serious. There's no need to apologize..." Chen Can found it difficult to say this word, as if Ou Ranyu had done something to him.
It's weird.
Ou Ranyu said: "That's not what I meant."
What else could that mean?
Chen Can didn't want to continue this topic. How could he have a meal if he continued? He waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright. After this meal, the matter is over."
No
Ou Ranyu thought to himself and turned around to continue cutting the fish.
"Thank you, Chen Can." Ou Ranyu said again.
Chen Can felt embarrassed: "You are really too serious."
"What are you thanking me for?" Li Yachang came in carrying a bag of things.
"What are you plotting again?" Zhu Baifeng also squeezed in, making it look like a scene of catching an adulterer.
Chen Can quickly drove the man out, leaving Ou Ranyu to help.
Around six o'clock in the evening, after two hours of hard work by Chef Chen and the assistance of Assistant Ou, we finally had dinner.
"Chen Can, you are the vegetable of the year, so why are there corianders sprinkled on every dish?" Zhu Baifeng stared at the table full of coriander and didn't know where to start.
Chen Can said: "It's good that you have it. You can pick all the dishes tonight.
Zhu Baifeng carefully picked up a piece of green vegetable without coriander
Chen Can added, "If you don't like cilantro, you can pick some out for me. I love cilantro. Or you can give it to Li Yachang. He doesn't mind it. He loves it."
Li Yachang added: "Coriander is my favorite."
Speaking of which, Chen Can still didn't know what Ou Ranyu liked. He glanced at him but didn't see him pick up his chopsticks.
"You don't eat cilantro either?" Chen Can said, "If you don't want to eat it, give it to me."
"Okay." Ou Ranyu picked up a piece of fish and put it into Chen Can's bowl.
Don’t like fish?
Don’t pick it up if you don’t want to eat it.
Chen Can didn't delve into it and just focused on eating.
Halfway through the meal, someone knocked on the door.
"Oh, I'm eating."
As soon as Chen Can opened the door, Shi Zhimu smelled the fragrance and rushed into the house, and even eight Chen Cans couldn't stop him.
"Hi, kids." Shi Zhimu, who had never known what boundaries were, sat directly in Chen Can's seat. As soon as he sat down, the other three stood up immediately.
Ou Ranyu also kicked Shi Zhimu.
How could Chen Can let someone ruin the place? He immediately added another set of bowls and chopsticks.
"It's not a big deal, sit down and eat." Chen Can pulled over a chair and sat down first.
Shi Zhimu took the new bowl and chopsticks and started eating without paying any attention to the eyes.
Chen Can was very polite: "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
"Come and have a free meal." Shi Zhimu puffed out his cheeks and chewed with relish, "Not bad, not bad, this table of food..."
"Okay...eat." Chen Can refused to let anyone spoil his fun. "You three, what are you standing there for? Stop just watching. After today, you have to go back to school tomorrow."
Zhu Baifeng and Li Yachang accepted Shi Zhimu after just a few minutes. Anyway, Chen Can had done enough.
However, Ou Ranyu was still thinking about it after he sat down, and his eyes and poisonous arrows would occasionally shoot at Shi Zhimu.
We were enjoying the meal when someone suggested serving some wine.
Chen Can really took out a few bottles of wine and drank too much.
"Everyone here, minors should not drink too much. We still have to go to school tomorrow." Shi Zhimu said as he opened the third bottle of wine.
No one listened to him, and in the end some fell down, some went crazy.
"What are you thinking?" Zhu Baifeng asked, pinching Shi Zhimu's neck. "Before, you wanted us to die, but now you're abandoning the light and joining the dark?"
"When did I ever kill you? That was all a joke." Shi Zhimu grabbed Zhu Baifeng's hand, glanced at Chen Can, pointed at Ou Ranyu and said, "I want him to die once. My son wants me to die ten thousand times, but it's not enough."
"That's true." Li Yachang got up without knowing when and helped Zhu Baifeng tie up Shi Zhimu.
"Leave the body intact, otherwise it will be difficult to explain later." Chen Can just walked out of the toilet and shouted while holding the door.
Chen Can had just walked a few steps out, his head still dizzy. His knees hit the chair three times in a row. The fourth time it hurt, and he almost fell to his knees. Someone held him steadily.
"It's you." Chen Can looked up at Ou Ranyu, pulled his hand and stood up straight, "Let's go back to the palace."
Ou Ranyu held on to Chen Can and didn't dare to let go. Chen Can held Ou Ranyu tightly as he went up the stairs, fearing that he would fall.
"Why aren't you drunk?" Chen Can pinched Ou Ranyu's arm.
"Because I didn't drink at all." Ou Ranyu helped Chen Can sit up.
"That's great, let's go." Chen Can pulled Ou Ranyu to the rooftop.
Chen Can broke free from Ou Ranyu and staggered to climb the ladder to the rooftop. Ou Ranyu was forced to hold the ladder while looking up at Chen Can, ready to catch him to prevent him from falling to his death.
After stumbling for more than ten minutes, Chen Can finally climbed up. There was no movement for a long time. Ou Ranyu suspected that he had fallen asleep up there. Just as he was about to go up to pick him up, Chen Can suddenly popped up and looked down at Ou Ranyu with a smile.
"Come up."
Ou Ranyu climbed up in less than thirty seconds. Chen Can was still lying on the ground. Only when he saw Ou Ranyu coming up did he slowly sit up and brush off the dust on his body.
"You're here."
Ou Ranyu didn't say anything, just quietly enjoyed the breeze with him.
"Come, sit closer to me."
Ou Ranyu sat over there obediently.
"Be good and watch the stars with me." Chen Can gently stroked Ou Ranyu's head.
"My brother's head is not as nice to touch as mine." Chen Can whispered.
"What?" Ou Ranyu seemed not to hear clearly what he said.
"I said my brother is really annoying and disgusting." Chen Can shouted towards the sky.
"You don't like him?"
"He hates me." Chen Can's expression was a little dull after he finished shouting, "But, he also turned into a star."
Chen Can turned his head away, and two tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes without any warning.
Ou Ranyu watched his tears fall to the ground, his hand stayed in the air for a while, and finally withdrew it before Chen Can turned around.
"If you can't sleep, I can sing for you." Ou Ranyu's gaze never left her, shining like the sun from beginning to end.
Chen Can couldn't help laughing out loud: "Am I a baby? I need to listen to lullabies to fall asleep."
"If you like." After saying this, Ou Ranyu really hummed a song.
The voice was as light as a cloud. Chen Can couldn't tell the name of the song, so he listened quietly to the end.
Before the song is over, I am no longer sleepy and my drunkenness is fading away.
Only the heartbeat matches the rhythm of the music.
"Can I hug you?" Chen Can asked after he finished singing.
"If you want."
Before Ou Ranyu opened his arms, Chen Can hugged him.
This time, Ou Ranyu's hand did not stay in the air for long, and he gently patted Chen Can's back.
The hug didn't last long, Chen Can was the first to break away, and the remaining warmth lingered in the evening breeze for a long time.
Ou Ranyu maintained the hugging posture and looked at him with his eyes downcast, as if approaching a whirlpool, getting closer and closer, and sinking deeper and deeper.
Their breaths intertwined and their eyes met.
