Chapter 68
"Fortune teller? Ruoruo, you are so awesome. Can you tell fortunes?" As expected, Zhou Yuewan was full of surprise and kept asking while pulling her arm.
"I actually..."
Just as she was about to tell him, the phone of the person next to her rang: "Wait a minute, I need to answer the call."
"Hey, okay, I'll be right back." She seemed to have something urgent to do. She only said a few words before frowning. Then she turned her head and looked at Lin Ruoruo: "Ruoruo, I have something to do at home, so I'll leave first."
"Okay, you go ahead and do your work." As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Yuewan waved and hailed a taxi and left, leaving her standing there alone, looking left and right. She also had to go back. Qin Yu had just called her, and although he didn't say anything, there was probably something going on.
She stood by the roadside and started waving to stop a car. No car came, but a man came over and asked, "Do you want a taxi? My car is right next to you and can take you home." She knew who the voice was without turning her head and shook her head to refuse.
Cen Zhou didn't expect to be rejected again. He clenched his fists, stared at her leaving back, thought for a moment, and turned away.
Lin Ruo walked for a while before she finally got a taxi. Coincidentally, Qin Yu called at that moment. Thinking he was calling to urge her, she picked up the phone: "Hello, I'll be right back."
"No, no, I just want to ask if you want to come back for dinner, and if so, what to eat." After hearing what he said, Lin Ruo remembered that she had just made an appointment with Zhou Yueliang to have lunch. She had something to do at home, so she would go home to eat. So she replied to him that as for what to eat, she didn't care.
Qin Yu replied to her twice before hanging up, presumably to go get lunch. The car was driving pretty fast, so it didn't take long for him to arrive downstairs. After paying the bill, he went downstairs and happened to see Meng Mian coming downstairs to throw away the trash.
"Are you back?" After throwing away the garbage, he walked over quickly and took the bag from her hand.
She paused, handed the bag over, and nodded: "Okay." The two went upstairs together. When they got home, Qin Yu opened the door. He was wearing an apron and seemed to be doing something, but he looked a little unsuccessful.
Seeing her wipe the sweat from her forehead, she immediately ran back to the kitchen, and could see that the food was still in the pot. After Lin Ruo put the things away, she walked towards him and saw him frying the food with his spatulas with a serious look on his face.
"What is he going to do?" After looking for a long time without being able to figure out what was in the pot, he turned his head to ask Meng Mian next to him.
He seemed to have no idea either, shaking his head slightly before standing on tiptoe to look over. The two of them were watching, and Qin Yu, already flustered, was even more bewildered. He muttered as he moved his shovel, "What should I do? What should I do? I don't know how to do it."
"I'll go and take a look." Lin Ruo was a little anxious and wanted to go over and see if there was anything he could help with.
Meng Mian grabbed her arm and said, "I'll go. You go back and have a good rest." After that, he picked up the apron next to him, hung it up, and walked into the kitchen.
Seeing that neither of them had any intention of letting him in, even though she was a little worried, she decided to trust them. She turned back to her room, changed into home clothes, and had a good rest for the next few days. She didn't know what she would do when she went to record the variety show, but she inexplicably felt that she would not be able to relax.
When she changed her clothes and came out, they had already prepared a dish and put it on the table. Seeing her come out, they hurriedly responded: "Wait a moment, it will be ready soon."
She nodded slightly, slowly sat down on the sofa, picked up the remote control and turned on the TV. It happened to be Meng Mian's game, so she stopped and watched it attentively.
Meng Mian brought out another dish and walked over to her side. Seeing himself on the TV, he pursed his lips and asked, "Why are you watching this?"
"It just happened to be broadcast, so I watched it." She looked up and smiled softly.
"Let's go, it's time to eat."
"Okay." The two of them walked towards the dining table together. Lin Ruo stood there and watched carefully. She had to say that the two dishes looked good and should be delicious, so she sat down and picked up the chopsticks.
She took a bite of the dish on the far right, which she couldn't tell what it was. As soon as she entered, she was stunned and quickly looked up at him. He also looked over at her, and their eyes met. He asked, "How does it taste?"
Not knowing how to answer, she swallowed lightly and replied, "It's very good." Her eyes were fixed on the dish, but she had no idea what it was.
"Try this." He pushed another dish over. Lin Ruo had no idea what this dish was, so she didn't dare to try it.
"Try it quickly." Seeing that she was reluctant to move, he continued to sell her. He had no choice but to pick one up. How should I put it, this one seemed to taste better than the previous one, but neither was very delicious.
After taking two quick bites, she pulled out her phone and considered secretly ordering takeout. Qin Yu, noticing her like this, also took a bite, then immediately found a trash can to spit it out. He then pulled out his phone and muttered, "Let's order takeout."
"No need." Meng Mian was a little skeptical. He tried it too, but realized it the next second. He immediately spit it out and took out his phone to order takeout.
The three of them were ordering takeout, looking at each other and chuckling, then they all started ordering from the same place and waited for the takeout to arrive. Lin Ruo remembered that the two of them were not there yesterday, so he turned around and asked, "What did you do when you went back yesterday?"
When she asked, Qin Yu put down his phone and looked over. "I'm going back to school. Something happened..." He paused, a little hesitant, but continued. "I might not be able to go to the next show. I should go to school to register."
Lin Ruo checked the time and realized it was indeed the eve of the start of school. She needed to get ready, but if he wasn't going, who should she take? She pondered, turning to look to the side, and happened to meet Meng Mian's eyes. Should she take him? She was torn...
Qin Yu walked up to her and pointed at Meng Mian who was standing opposite her: "He can go."
This thought hit the nail on the head for Lin Ruo. She was also considering Meng Mian, but how should she introduce him? Or, in other words, what identity should he go with? Meng Mian seemed to know what she was thinking: "How about just saying I'm your cousin?"
This method was indeed feasible. If Qin Yu didn't go, Meng Mian would have to go if no one else was available. She was still hesitating, but Meng Mian waved his hand and said, "Let's decide. I'll go in Qin Yu's place."
By the time Lin Ruo finished thinking, Meng Mian had already decided to attend and stood up to pack his luggage. She stared at his back in confusion. Qin Yu stood beside her and snorted coldly, "If you didn't have to go back to school, how could it be your turn?"
"So what if it's my turn? You just can't go..." Meng Mian stood up and looked at him with a smug look on his face. The two of them were like children, talking back and forth.
Seeing this, Lin Ruo shook her head helplessly. She took out her phone and checked the next recording time. It looked like it was only a few days away, so it should be almost time. Qin Yu really didn't have time to attend. But the thought of him going back to school made her inexplicably worried. She looked up at him and found no strange aura, indicating that he was safe for the time being. This made her feel relieved and she slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
The two of them chatted back and forth like children. Having already confirmed that Meng Mian would be going with her in place of Qin Yu, she took out her phone and sent a message to the director to inquire. After receiving a confirmation, she addressed the two of them, "I've already told the director."
"Ding Dong..." Just at this moment, the phone rang, and the takeaway had arrived. Qin Yu quickly went over to pick it up and put it on the table.
After a busy afternoon, they finally had lunch. The takeaway was much better than the two dishes they had just eaten, but Qin Yu still sighed as he ate, "Not bad, but not as good as my sister's."
Meng Mian naturally knew who the sister he was talking about was, so he turned around and stared at Lin Ruona: "Really?"
"It's okay. I can try it next time I go to record a variety show." Lin Ruo just felt that his cooking was just average, but he could give it a try.
"Okay, then I'll look forward to it." Meng Mian said as he looked at Qin Yu next to him and raised his head proudly.
Qin Yu curled his lips and muttered softly, "I will definitely not let you go after I'm done with my work."
Lin Ruo ignored them and lowered his head to eat. Just then, his phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was from another number. It was Lu Anyu who sent the message. What did he want to talk to him about? He clicked on it and took a look. It seemed that he had a question to ask, so he replied, "I'm here."
"Hello, this is still related to the previous question. I want to know how to make her interested in me."
Originally, Lin Ruo still suspected that Lu Anyu had someone he liked, but now it seemed that he really did, and he even cared about her very much. So he took out the cards and drew three, namely: "Tower upright, Ten of Pentacles upright, Ten of Wands upright." These three cards seemed to have some meaning.
After a careful analysis, she sent him her interpretation: "First, the upright Tower may indicate that you need to make some kind of breakthrough. Perhaps there's a problem with your current approach to the other person, or they may have a misunderstanding of you, so a breakthrough is needed. The other person likely values stability and practical things, such as security, family, or material foundation, so you need to demonstrate your reliability and ability. Alternatively, you may feel too much pressure in the pursuit, or your methods may be too clumsy. Don't be too persistent or put too much pressure on yourself. Find a balance and avoid putting pressure on the other person. Finally, the key point: Remember to change yourself, don't feel pressured, everything is for the best."
"Okay, thank you, I know what to do." After receiving the message she sent, Lu Anyu looked at it carefully, and not only sent a reply, but also sent money.
"Okay, then I wish you success in advance." If it were in the past, Lin Ruo might not have accepted it so readily. Ever since she saw Lu Anyu's financial resources, she felt that this small amount of money was nothing to him.
But she was still a little curious about who Lu Anyu had in mind.
