Chapter 59
The scorching heat traveled from their palms pressed together, and they could even feel the pulse beating clearly between each other's fingers.
Their body temperatures were very high, both of them were tense, and their palms were sweaty, but neither of them chose to let go.
Gu Yubai held her hand tightly, but if you looked closely, you could even see a slight tremor beneath it.
Gu Yubai pretended to be calm, took Yu Xia's hand out of the popcorn bucket, and asked, "Do you want some popcorn?"
Before Yu Xia could even speak, Gu Yubai had already taken out a piece of popcorn and held it to Yu Xia's lips.
Yu Xia glanced at the small popcorn in front of her, and then, under Gu Yubai's gaze, slowly opened her mouth.
Yu Xia was very careful, trying to avoid large-area contact with the other person's fingers. She just opened her mouth slightly and quickly sucked the popcorn into her mouth. But inevitably, her lips still brushed against Gu Yubai's fingertips.
Gu Yubai's breathing suddenly paused for a brief second.
So soft.
They look very friendly.
Yu Xia seemed to sense it too, and glanced at Gu Yubai in a panic before quickly pursing her lips like a child who had done something wrong.
People probably do need to make comparisons.
Gu Yubai, who was initially quite insecure, inexplicably gained some confidence after seeing Yu Xia's appearance, feeling that he was still better than her.
So he put on a relaxed expression, looking completely at ease, as if he hadn't been affected by the earlier incident. Instead, he calmly asked her, "Want a Coke?"
Yu Xia quickly looked away and nodded.
Gu Yubai smiled and held the straw to her lips.
Yu Xia stretched out her other free hand and stammered, "I...I can do it myself."
“No,” Gu Yubai dodged her outstretched hand and held the straw to her mouth again, “I want to be fed.”
Gu Yubai looked completely at ease.
So, Yu Xia slowly, very slowly, moved her head closer.
The liquid slowly rises through the transparent straw, and a cool, refreshing taste spreads throughout the mouth.
Yu Xia felt that this cola was different from the cola she usually drank.
That's weird.
It's strangely sweet.
No one remembers what the movie ended, or even when it ended. The two only realized what had happened when the cast list appeared on the big screen.
Gu Yubai was engrossed in feeding the animals.
He had seen his elders feeding children at family gatherings before. Children are mischievous and mostly love snacks rather than meals, so parents have to put in a lot of effort at the dinner table, coaxing and cajoling them, and they still only eat a few bites after a long time.
At that time, Gu Yubai had just started university. Because there were many children in his family at the annual gatherings, and he was a university student, it was only natural for him to take on the role of "Dehua".
To be honest, he was really fed up. He didn't know where the child got so much energy. He had to run around while feeding him, play with toy cars and pretend to be a child, and then insert an "Ah—" into the conversation before quickly stuffing a mouthful of food into his mouth when he wasn't looking. It was more tiring than doing homework.
Fortunately, Gu Yubai still had some real power. He wasn't the youngest in the family, and there were other servants under him who could serve him. He bribed Chi Ximin with three thousand yuan and then handed over this tiring job to Chi Ximin.
He had always thought feeding the animals was a troublesome thing, but only today did he begin to enjoy it.
It turns out that the problem wasn't the feeding itself, but the person feeding it.
Watching Yu Xia eat the popcorn he offered her reminded Gu Yubai of felines, and he suddenly understood why people love small pets so much.
I never knew I could feel so satisfied; it was very enjoyable.
The movie ended, and the two walked out of the cinema.
The night was deep, and the two held hands.
At this moment, Gu Yubai began to understand why young people like to stroll around.
He regretted driving out; he even wished the road were longer and more expansive.
Yu Xia's hands were very soft, and he wanted to hold them a little longer.
Unfortunately, the parking lot was so close to the movie theater that we arrived in no time.
Gu Yubai suddenly had a strong urge to push the black car into the water.
"Aren't you going up?" After standing by the car for a while, seeing that Gu Yubai hadn't made a move, Yu Xia took the initiative to ask.
But when she turned her head, she saw Gu Yubai looking at the car with a disgusted expression.
What... happened?
Gu Yubai clicked his tongue lightly and reluctantly opened his hand: "Okay, get in the car."
Yu Xia felt her mind was working exceptionally fast at that moment. In that instant, she strangely connected with Gu Yubai's thought process and understood the meaning behind that tsk.
“You can hold it even when you get in the car,” she blurted out.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yubai turned to look at her in surprise.
As soon as Yu Xia blurted it out, she regretted it so much that she wanted to bite her tongue off.
Facing Gu Yubai's gaze, she felt an overwhelming sense of shame. What was she saying? How could she have blurted it out like she was so desperate?
Yu Xia wanted to go back to the previous second and strangle the version of herself who was talking nonsense.
Gu Yubai thought about it seriously for a few seconds, and finally showed a regretful expression: "I think I'll pass, it's inconvenient to drive with one hand."
The tone was also regretful.
"Oh, oh," Yu Xia was so embarrassed she wanted to disappear into a crack in the ground. She quickly climbed into the car, not knowing what she was saying, and mumbled incoherently, "That's good, that's good."
"But can I keep the right to hold hands and then change to someone else?" Gu Yubai asked seriously.
They seemed to genuinely feel it was a pity they couldn't hold hands, and that it shouldn't be wasted.
"Change to what?" Yu Xia asked softly.
"I'll tell you later, okay?" Gu Yubai said.
"Oh, sure," Yu Xia said, resting her head against the car window with her back to him. "Anything's fine with me."
"Well, I also have a request to make, is that alright?" Yu Xia asked.
Gu Yubai started the car and said without hesitation, "Okay."
Yu Xia paused, not expecting him to agree so readily.
They didn't even ask what it was.
Oh, it seems I didn't ask myself.
Yu Xia stopped worrying about it.
Music started playing inside the car.
Yu Xia listened absentmindedly, then suddenly paused.
The intro to this music sounds so familiar; it seems to be one of her recent songs that she's been listening to on repeat.
It's just a coincidence.
Although this song is relatively niche, it's not impossible that the two of them happened to hear the same song.
Yu Xia glanced at Gu Yubai secretly. Although that was what she thought, she also felt a little strange.
Gu Yubai noticed her gaze, seemingly understanding what she was thinking, and said without any pretense, "The songs on your playlist."
"Huh?" Yu Xia was taken aback.
“It’s in your music account,” Gu Yubai explained.
His expression was very open and honest.
"Don't you like it?" Gu Yubai noticed her expression was off. "I remember this is the song you've been listening to on repeat the most lately. I thought you really liked it."
As he spoke, he prepared to switch songs.
"No," Yu Xia came to her senses, stopping him, her voice unconsciously becoming a little softer, "I like it."
Gu Yubai withdrew his hand, a slight smile playing on his lips: "If you like it, that's good."
...
Yu Xia turned her face away again, her heart starting to pound erratically again.
She used to repeatedly browse her idol's account, trying to gather as much information as possible about him, and she would be very happy even if she only learned a little more. But she never expected that one day her idol would actually check out her account to find out what she liked.
And all of this was because he liked her.
The thing she had done before was being done to her again by the person she loved most. Yu Xia felt even more surreal, with a subtle sweetness mixed with the surreal feeling. Involuntarily, the corners of her mouth turned up.
When she saw her smiling reflection in the car window, she realized how obvious it was, so she quickly suppressed her smile.
The car had already driven to the entrance of the alley at some point.
arrive.
But Gu Yubai clearly had no intention of locking the car and letting her out.
"What do you want to ask?" he asked.
"I..." Yu Xia didn't expect that he would actually keep his word.
She does have one thing she really wants.
After Gu Yubai sent her a voice message yesterday, which was the first time their chat had ever used voice messages, Yu Xia, who was an absolute voice enthusiast, had listened to that voice message countless times.
But there are just too few voice recordings... She wanted just a little more, just a tiny bit more.
Who wouldn't want a voice recording of their idol, especially one that's exclusive? It's something every fan dreams of.
“I…” Yu Xia tentatively began, her desire for voice control overcoming her shame, “I want you to record another voice message for me.”
That's Bai He's voice! What does face matter!
Gu Yubai looked a little surprised, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "Just this?"
Yu Xia nodded, her eyes filled with longing.
Gu Yubai smiled, turned on his phone, and asked, "What do you want to record?"
Yu Xia rolled her eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "Good morning bell?"
"Is it okay?" Yu Xia looked at him with bright, expectant eyes and asked.
Gu Yubai chuckled.
He raised his hand and pressed the record button, and then his deep, sexy voice resounded in the car.
"My dear girlfriend, a new day has begun. Your boyfriend is calling you to get up and get to work."
He understands the importance of this kind of fan service.
After recording, Gu Yubai clicked send.
Yu Xia's phone rang immediately afterward.
"Alright, now it's my turn," Gu Yubai said.
The next second, Gu Yubai put away his phone and leaned towards Yu Xia.
The distance suddenly closed, and warm breaths surrounded my ears again.
Gu Yubai whispered:
"I want a goodbye kiss."
"May I?"
