When the pickled radish was on the shelves, the first person Liu Ben told was his good friend You Ying. But for some reason, You Ying seemed to be very busy recently. He rarely responded when Liu Ben chatted with him. Liu Ben also asked You Ying when they could play games together again, but You Ying was vague and always said he didn't have time.
The Liu family only has the elders at home now, and Liu Ben cannot talk to them about many things that only his peers can say. When he is tired from work, he can only find his only friend You Ying.
Before Liu Ben could be puzzled for long, You Ying suddenly took the initiative to chat with him again.
You Ying was also a little embarrassed. He was not busy, he just wanted to have less contact with Liu Ben. Of course, he didn't want to alienate Liu Ben, he just wanted to calm down for a while.
A dozen days ago, You Ying accompanied Liu Ben and You Guoguo to sign the contract. They then had lunch and spent the afternoon playing games. It must be said that You Ying had a wonderful time. He usually played games alone and didn't like the company of others, but with Liu Ben, he felt right at home. There was no pressure, no need to be formal, and they could chat comfortably. At that moment, You Ying felt that Liu Ben was someone he could keep as a lifelong friend.
However, You Guoguo came with a rocket launcher and shattered his idea.
When You Guoguo saw Liu Ben coming out of You Ying's house that day, she asked slyly, "What's your relationship?"
"Of course we're friends!" You Ying said as a matter of course.
"Hey~~" You Guoguo squinted her eyes and acted like a gossip: "I think we're more than just friends, right?"
You Ying reacted almost immediately: "How is that possible! He's straight, right?!"
"Why am I so unconvinced?" You Guoguo raved, "I think he has a very gay vibe."
"How can a little girl like you know what gay aura is?" You Ying shrugged, "He must be straight."
"Then how did you know? Did you ask him?"
"Is there any need to ask?" You Ying racked his brains to immediately point out some points about Liu Ben's straight manliness.
Liu Ben has a cheerful personality and has good relationships with many women, but this is not evidence.
Liu Ben is tall and handsome...uh...that doesn't count.
Liu Ben was very open about it after he knew he was gay... To be honest, Liu Ben was not only open about it at the time, he also expressed a high degree of acceptance of the fact that he was gay. What did Liu Ben say? Yes, he said, "This is quite common, gender is not a problem", "There are many men who can't find a partner, so isn't it reasonable to be with a man?" and so on.
Wait, are straight guys really that casual with their confirmed gay friends? Shouldn't that be a little awkward?
Thinking about it this way, Liu Ben... the more I look at him, the more he looks like the same kind of person!
In the end, You Ying just said stubbornly: "Why are you asking if there is nothing to ask? Doesn't he think I have other intentions?"
You Guoguo: "Hey, do you have any?"
"Don't deny it! When I first said you two were more than just friends, your first reaction was to say he was straight, not that you weren't interested!" You Guoguo seemed to see through everything: "Admit it!"
"..." You Ying wanted to refute, but he knew it was useless to say anything. You Guoguo would definitely not believe him, so he turned his head and said: "I'm going to have dinner. Goodbye, I won't see you off."
"Then don't send me off. I'll eat here."
…
You Ying kept denying You Guoguo's doubts, but that night he dreamed of hugging Liu Ben. Although it was clearly a dream, Liu Ben's hug was as warm as during the day.
You Ying was woken up by the cold in the middle of the night.
You Ying got up expressionlessly and added another blanket to himself. He thought it was normal because he hadn't had close contact with anyone for a long time and the memory of hugging Liu Ben during the day was a little deep. So he lay down and fell asleep again.
As a result, this time You Ying dreamed of a handsome and unrestrained real-life half-naked minotaur. The two of them hugged each other and were very intimate. Some unspeakable things happened. In the dream, You Ying somehow felt that the minotaur he was hugging was Liu Ben, and the minotaur finally turned into Liu Ben... All in all, the feeling was pretty good.
You Ying was woken up by the heat in the morning.
You Ying reached into the quilt... Damn.
Later, You Ying began to avoid Liu Ben, not for any other reason, but because the dream was too clear. As soon as he saw Liu Ben's message, he would think of Liu Ben, think of his dreams at night, and think of all kinds of scenes with Liu Ben... You Ying didn't know how his imagination could make such a leap to this level.
So when You Ying's mind was in a mess, he could only avoid Liu Ben.
So why did You Ying contact Liu Ben again now? He had no choice; he was also entrusted by someone.
Aunt Sun suddenly found You Ying and said that she wanted to bring some friends who also often bought milk at Liu Ben’s store to visit Liu Ben’s cattle farm, and wanted You Ying to act as a matchmaker.
You Ying didn't know why Aunt Sun had such a strange idea. If one wanted to experience the beauty of nature, one could go to many scenic spots. If one wanted to experience the simple life in the village, there were farmhouses everywhere. But Aunt Sun insisted on going to Liu Ben's cattle farm to see how green milk was produced... Well, okay, You Ying himself was actually a little curious. Let alone green milk, he had never seen the production of ordinary milk.
If it were someone else, You Ying would have casually shirked the responsibility, but this time it was Aunt Sun who said it. She was his mother's friend and the one who watched him grow up. It was too unkind of You Ying not to ask Liu Ben a single question.
You Ying hesitated for a while, but finally agreed.
Just ask, and if Liu Ben says no, he will stop immediately.
Would Liu Ben say no? Of course not. A real man can't say no!
Liu Ben's cattle farm is not one of those strictly mechanized ones. The cows here are very free and can go to the cowshed to play every day. Moreover, the visitors are not messy people and should not bring any germs in.
Although Liu Ben felt it was a little strange to visit a cattle farm, he had no problem with it. The calves in the farm were so cute, no one would dislike them, so Liu Ben agreed readily.
Liu Ben: "Okay, let me tell you my cow is very interesting, you will definitely like it."
You Ying originally just wanted to ask on behalf of Aunt Sun and was not planning to go there himself, but Liu Ben obviously thought he was going to go.
Liu Ben: "But let's make an appointment a few days later. When you come, I'll ask grandma to make you something delicious!"
I couldn’t send the three words “I’m not going” in Youying’s input box, so I deleted them and re-entered them.
You Ying: "I'm looking forward to it."
Liu Ben didn't know about You Ying's dilemma. He was just happy that You Ying was coming. If You Ying came, he would definitely let him taste some fresh dishes he had never eaten before.
On the other hand, the express deliveries sent by He Mei were received one after another.
Liu Lei is a warm-hearted person with many friends. When he received a package from home, he immediately called his friends and invited them to his dormitory to try it.
Roommate 1: "We've already eaten the local specialties you brought when you came."
Roommate 2: "I think the best thing is the rice you brought. Wow, it smells so good."
Roommate 3: "Yes, yes, the aroma of your cooking rice spread so far that the whole floor could smell it."
Liu Lei sighed, "So my stove was confiscated. I can't cook anymore. Look, this is my brother's pickled radish and milk. I'll give you some to try. I guarantee you won't forget it!"
“Isn’t it so magical?”, “Wow, it smells so good!”…
Liu Sen doesn’t have as many friends as Liu Lei, but he still has two or three, so naturally he shares his life with his friends.
At this time, Liu Rui was telling her sister Zhu Xiaoman, who had just returned to the dormitory, how delicious her pickled radish was.
Liu Rui: "The pickled radish is really delicious, crispy and a little spicy, and it's delicious even when eaten alone!"
Ye Xiao also agreed: "Really! It's a little sweet, I like it!"
Zhu Xiaoman was fixing her hair and tying a bow into her high ponytail. When she heard the two people chattering, she rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "No matter how delicious it was, you didn't leave any for me. I didn't even get to taste any of it!"
"Ah, haha," Liu Rui touched the hair beside her ear awkwardly, "We enjoyed it so much that we finished it all in one sitting."
"Hehehe." Zhu Xiaoman fixed her hair and looked at the two of them with an expressionless sneer.
Ye Xiao quickly hid behind Liu Rui and said to Zhu Xiaoman, "Rui Rui said her mother sent her some more. You'll be able to eat it then, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes," Liu Rui nodded like a chick pecking at rice, then she thought of something, ran to her cabinet, took out three facial masks, and ran back.
"And this facial mask was also sent to me by my mother." Liu Rui was about to recommend it to Zhu Xiaoman when the dormitory door was opened with a "click", interrupting her words.
A tall girl with bangs walked in. It was another roommate, Yao Xueer. She walked to her bed, rummaged through some things and prepared to leave. Before leaving, she glanced at the facial mask in Liu Rui's hand, snorted and chuckled, and left only a light remark before turning around and leaving.
"How dare you bring out such fake stuff, you country bumpkin."
Liu Rui was a bit embarrassed. She didn't know much about the mask. Her mother only said it was made by her brother's friend's company, but she couldn't elaborate. Concerned about her family's income, Liu Rui didn't usually spend much money. She'd only heard of the brand name but never bought it. So even when she saw the simple "Guo Yan Premium" label on the mask, she couldn't tell if it was real or fake.
Zhu Xiaoman frowned, feeling somewhat displeased, not with Liu Rui, but with Yao Xueer.
Yao Xueer and Zhu Xiaoman are both locals. Zhu Xiaoman usually lives in the dormitory and occasionally goes home to sleep. She gets along well with Liu Rui and Ye Xiao, but Yao Xueer dislikes the dormitory beds being uncomfortable and never lives in the dormitory. She only leaves some of her school things in the dormitory and comes to get them when she needs them.
Yao Xueer didn't know if it was due to the influence of her family environment or something, but she particularly disliked outsiders, especially those who had no money. She looked down on Ye Xiao's middle-class family, not to mention Liu Rui, who lived in the countryside and had parents who were farmers. She often mocked Liu Rui's family environment in words.
Liu Rui was of course a little embarrassed when she was talked about, but fortunately Zhu Xiaoman and Ye Xiao stood up for her and led other girls in the class to make friends with her, so she was able to live a stable life in school.
Zhu Xiaoman looked at the mask in Liu Rui's hand and asked, "Did your mother send it to you?"
Liu Rui reacted from her embarrassment and hesitantly handed a facial mask to Zhu Xiaoman: "Yes, this mask is very useful, do you want to try it?"
Zhu Xiaoman took it and looked through it. This facial mask was indeed missing a lot of information that should be marked. She used facial masks every day, so this one was somewhat familiar to her. For example, the facial masks sold by the big brand Ruyan Youpin were all anti-counterfeit, but the mask in her hand did not have it.
Ye Xiao also squeezed over to recommend it to Zhu Xiaoman: "It really works! I've tried it, and my face feels so soft after applying it... My acne is gone!"
Zhu Xiaoman looked up and saw that Ye Xiao really liked to eat high-sugar and high-fat foods and often stayed up late to watch TV series, which caused him to get acne on his face. Now there were only some acne scars left on his face, but they were not obvious and seemed to disappear soon.
Zhu Xiaoman nodded: "I'll try." Although pirated products are not very safe, Ye Xiao and the others have already used them and confirmed that there are no problems, so it won't be a problem to use them once... right?
Liu Rui became happy again. The three of them squeezed together to wash their faces and then put on facial masks. They had no classes this morning, so they put on the facial masks now, had lunch later, and then could go to class.
After applying the mask for a sufficient amount of time, the three of them took off the mask at the same time.
"Oh!" Zhu Xiaoman touched her face in surprise: "I feel like I've become a little whiter."
"My skin has become more delicate!" Ye Xiao stretched out his fingers and poked his face: "Is this the skin that can be blown away?"
"You are so conceited!" The three of them laughed and stuck to each other.
"Hehe~ By the way, Ruirui, where did your mother buy this facial mask?"
"Yes, it's so useful, but I can't find the same one online."
"I don't know..." Liu Rui was halfway through her sentence when she received a text message. She clicked it and saw: "Wow, it's my delivery! The pickled radish my mom sent has arrived!"
"Hurry, hurry, let's go wash our faces!"
"Wow, my mouth is watering just thinking about that pickled radish!"
The author has something to say:
You Ying: Numb
