"Not bad, this place..."
A strange light flickered in Yu Shiyue's eyes, and she suddenly spoke softly.
"Since you like it, come visit more often in the future. Doesn't your school have similar activities?"
The venue was noisy, with various sounds mixed together, making it difficult for two people standing next to each other to hear each other.
But Xia Che heard it.
"No... well, not really, I rarely go."
Yu Shiyue was somewhat surprised, clearly not expecting Xia Che to have such a gentle side.
Even though her voice was very soft, Xia Che still heard it, which meant that the other party had been paying attention to her all along.
For no apparent reason, Yu Shiyue felt her heart beating faster.
"I can participate in more events in the future. You only realize how wonderful youth is when you miss it, so don't leave any regrets."
Xia Che carefully weaved through the crowd, searching for a weak point where there were fewer people.
There was no other way; the stands were packed with people, and the only way out was to sneak around like a mole.
"I don't want to go. I don't know anyone at school. What's the point of coming to an event alone, no matter how lively it is?"
Yu Shiyue's eyes darkened slightly.
What she was describing was her situation during high school.
She didn't want to become a shut-in. At least she had once mustered up the courage to become more outgoing and cheerful, but she didn't know where to start.
The thought of socializing with others, joking around, or going to certain events fills Yu Shiyue with dread and a chill runs through her heart.
She couldn't muster the courage.
Suddenly, she felt someone squeeze her hand. When she looked up, she saw Xia Che, who had been holding her hand, turning around and smiling with bright eyes.
"I'm here."
Xia Che smiled and said, "If you want to go out and have fun in the future, just come find me. I don't have many friends, but as long as you want to take the first step, I'll go with you."
Am I a socially anxious type...?
Xia Che was all too familiar with him.
The female characters in the comics he knew all possessed this trait to varying degrees.
Perhaps it's because the prettier the girl, the more insecure she is?
Although it sounds unbelievable to say such a thing, Xia Che believes that only this explanation makes sense.
But it's okay.
If Yu Shiyue wanted to, he could help her out of her current predicament at any time.
"……good."
Yu Shiyue let out a long sigh, but she wasn't as happy as she had imagined.
After all, everything she said was a lie.
High school life is long gone for her, and she's only now finding a solution... isn't that just like trying to find a sword by marking the boat?
"If only you had shown up sooner, then perhaps..."
Yu Shiyue pursed her lips, her eyes dimming slightly.
"Hey, is this Shen Yanxin? Ready to go on stage? Hehe... I'm here, Yue-xiong's sister and I are both here. Ah... have you found us seats? Let me go ask Jiang Yu? She's over there? Okay, okay, I understand. Good luck in the competition, we're all here for you."
After squeezing out of the crowd, Xia Che made a call to Shen Yanxin, then hung up with a smile and sent a message to Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu replied quickly, as if she had expected it, and sent the address. After receiving it, Xia Che turned to Yu Shiyue and said smugly, "Let's go, we have a table."
"So fast?"
Yu Shiyue was somewhat surprised.
Is this what it feels like to get in through connections?
It was actually quite enjoyable...
"I've got the bag, I've got connections, let's go."
Xia Che looked down at his phone, his eyebrows suddenly twitching.
He had been busy all morning and hadn't had time to check his phone. When he finally did, he was shocked to find a lot of unread messages.
Most of them were sent by Chu Yuying.
"Little blondie! He's dead! He's dead... Little Yue isn't home!"
"It's not my fault. You told me to spend more time with Brother Xiaoyue, but he's not home at all. How can I keep him company?"
He doesn't reply to my messages, and he doesn't reply to yours either... Are you two together?
After reading it, Xia Che slapped himself on the forehead.
Grass……
How come this little brat can't even do something this simple?
Where else could Brother Yue be?
I'm definitely at home!
Isn't his habit to stay at home and never go out?
How could it be impossible to find...?
"You slept in again, didn't you?"
Xia Che sent a message through gritted teeth.
In the chat interface with Chu Yuying, a line of text suddenly appeared: "[The other party is typing]".
Soon, Xia Che received an embarrassed, smiling emoji, followed by a new message from Chu Yuying: "How did you know? Hehe..."
"I guessed it was you... Never mind, Brother Yue's sister is with me now. We're all at the competition venue. I'll take her there in a bit. Why don't you go and save us a spot first? We'll talk when we meet."
Xia Che shook his head. The little brat was indeed more trouble than she was worth.
He took on the most difficult part of the task himself, leaving her with a trivial little part, and she still couldn't handle it?
She really is a lazy sheep...
"Ah? Brother Xiaoyue's...sister? I see, okay, okay, come on over."
Chu Yuying instantly realized what was going on, and a smile involuntarily appeared in her eyes.
No wonder I couldn't find Sister Xiaoyue, she was with Little Yellow Hair?
Then you can't blame yourself.
After all, in the current family, the fact that Sister Xiaoyue is Brother Xiaoyue... is something only that idiot Xia Che doesn't know.
Everyone else already knew.
Even Shen Yanxin, Jiang Yu, and Wen Chenlu, who moved in a little later, knew about it, but the little blond guy didn't...
Just thinking about this makes Chu Yuying's stomach hurt from laughing.
How could a person be so stupid?
But she won't expose it; the later Xia Che realizes this fact, the funnier it will be.
Chu Yuying couldn't wait to see Xia Che's expression when he realized that the Yue brother he knew was actually the same person as Yu Shiyue.
It's going to be amazing...
"What's wrong? Why are you gritting your teeth... Does that person owe you money?"
Yu Shiyue looked down at her palm, then made a few grasping motions, her eyebrows slowly furrowing.
That's strange...
Suddenly there's no one's hand to hold, and I feel a strange emptiness.
She's been doing this all these years without anything unusual, so how come Xia Che only held her hand a few times and she's already become dependent on him?
"This guy... isn't he actually a succubus at heart?"
Yu Shiyue raised her eyes and glared at Xia Che.
"No... it's Chu Yuying, she messed up again."
Xia Che put away his phone and sighed: "According to our original plan, I was responsible for finding out the situation from you, and she was responsible for chatting with Brother Yue to see if she could get some information out of him. But this idiot didn't even get to see Brother Yue."
