Chapter 49 You smell of her perfume on you!
......
Yue Yiyue's expression instantly became indescribable.
She sat there, trying her best to soften her words: "You're already a college student."
It's inappropriate to say something so childish.
Koya's expression changed instantly as he looked at Yue Yiyue, and tears welled up in his eyes: "But before, when we were neighbors, I would do this when I got hurt."
It wasn't her before. Yue Yiyue really wanted to clarify things for herself, but it was indeed her who had taken over the body of Yue Yiyue.
We can't let Koya notice that something's wrong.
He leaned over and gave a perfunctory two breaths, then picked up the iodine solution next to him and applied it to several of the deeper wounds.
Having confirmed that Gu was alright and in good spirits, she sat back down in her original spot and stared blankly at the green plants on the balcony.
Yue Yiyue still felt a little uncomfortable when he was with Gu Ye.
Because Koya's gaze was intense.
If he doesn't verbally remind him, Gu will keep staring at him.
Gu Ye's gaze was not malicious, but rather one of appreciation, so Yue Yiyue didn't say anything more.
After all, it didn't have any real impact on her.
So what if you want to look? It won't hurt you.
After sitting on the sofa for a while, Yue Yiyue still couldn't stay still. He took out a few bags of snacks from the cabinet and two bottles of cola: "Want some? If you want anything else, just go get it from the snack box."
"By the way, Koya, do you live in the dormitory or do you live off-campus?"
"I'm living outside, renting a small room, but the water heater broke down a few days ago." Gu Ye said with a smile, then realized she had said the wrong thing and covered her mouth: "Sorry, it's nothing. I'll just buy a new water heater. Although I haven't earned this money yet, I believe that if I work hard, I should be able to manage in a month."
......
"I'll discuss it with Gu Nanqiu later. If they have no objections, you can stay here for the night." Yue Yiyue wasn't too bothered by Gu Ye's obvious little tricks.
Her innocent face always looked at me with such dependent eyes.
Yue Yiyue was well aware of Gu Ye's little schemes, but he knew that Gu Ye didn't really have any bad intentions. It was just that Gu Ye wasn't very good at making friends, and he had just reunited with his childhood friend, and then this happened last night.
All things considered, it's just a matter of being somewhat dependent on this childhood friend.
Thinking of this, Yue Yiyue felt somewhat guilty.
After all, I'm not her real friend, but it shouldn't be a problem to help her within my ability.
"Eat first." Yue Yiyue handed over the food. "Do you know why they attacked Zhou Qingyi?"
"Or rather, is there something you need that's going over there so late?"
Of course, Koya knew the answer, but she couldn't say it directly; she could only vaguely describe what happened at that time.
“I went to the night market to buy you something, but all the things were too cheap and didn’t do justice to you, so I went home.”
"On the way back, a woman suddenly rushed out, carrying a strawberry cake with mangoes on it. She said she was Zhou Qingyi and would give me 100,000 yuan for saving her."
At this point, Koya paused and emphasized, "It wasn't about the money. It was just that she rushed over and smeared the cake all over me, and then that madwoman chased me like crazy."
cake?
Mango strawberry cake?
Yue Yiyue silently memorized these things: "Okay, thank you. Gu Ye, you've worked hard. I know you're not the kind of person who's after money."
————
Yue Yiyue stood in front of the cake shop, the one Gu Ye had mentioned, which had recently become incredibly popular.
It's also the shop where Zhou Qingyi bought the cake.
Although I don't have any other hopes, taking a look is at least a way to eliminate one suspect.
Red tiles, green walls, and brightly colored cake shops displaying cakes of various flavors in their windows.
Yue Yiyue glanced at the menu: durian, matcha, chocolate, mango mille-feuille...
It has everything inside, except for the mango-flavored strawberry cake that Koya mentioned.
I pushed open the door and looked inside again, but the cake with that strange smell still wasn't there.
Perhaps it's just a coincidence.
Yue Yiyue glanced at the other shelf displaying cakes, made sure there was nothing he wanted, and turned to leave.
"Are you here to find that cake too?" A girl looked at Yue Yiyue curiously and pointed to the cute-looking cakes.
Yue Yiyue stopped and pointed at himself: "Me?"
Seeing Yue Yiyue's bewildered expression, she smiled and said, "Aren't you curious why such a remote cake shop does so well?"
"I'm a little curious." Yue Yiyue followed the girl's words, pretending to be very interested, and pointed to the cakes in the cabinet: "If you're willing to tell me, how about I treat you to a cake?"
The girl glanced at Yue Yiyue in surprise, then immediately began choosing a cake.
"The pistachio Basque chocolate here is really good, sweet and savory, it tastes great." She pointed to the delicate and cute cakes in the corner: "Would you like one?"
Yue Yiyue nodded and said to the waiter standing behind him, "Hello, two pistachios from Basque, please eat here."
A moment later, the two sat down in a sunny spot.
It's located by the street, and you can observe the roadside through the glass window. This place is in a relatively remote corner, and there are no other customers around.
It's perfect for conversation.
"Hello, I'm Liu Mingdian, and I'm in the same class as Gu Nanqiu. I've seen you with Gu Nanqiu before." She gave a friendly smile: "I knew Gu Nanqiu's friends were also very nice people."
She tapped the table, looking at the small cake with a somewhat complicated expression: "Speaking of which, you don't seem to know about this recently famous cake."
"If you wish, please buy a matcha-flavored strawberry cake, but if you get a mango-flavored strawberry cake, you will pay the price."
“Someone managed to buy the matcha-flavored strawberry cake before and actually fulfilled their wish. They became quite famous on the forum. You can check it out when you have time.” Liu Mingdian looked at Yue Yiyue with a smile: “There are also time restrictions for buying the cake, but the time is not fixed, and nobody knows when it will be available again.”
The other party's enthusiasm made Yue Yiyue a little uncomfortable, but he felt a little better after hearing that they were from Gu Nanqiu's class.
She rubbed her palms together and nodded: "Okay, I understand, thank you."
"Mingdian, did you also come for this wish?"
Liu Mingdian nodded: "Yes, but you could also say no. It's mainly because of Xie Ying."
Upon hearing this name, Liu Mingdian sighed heavily: "Speaking of this, I should thank you first. I am Xie Ying's lover. Yesterday, when that situation happened, I was out of town and couldn't get there in time. If you hadn't stopped her there, I really don't know what would have happened afterward."
She stood up and bowed: "After Xie Ying is discharged from the hospital, we will come together to treat you to a meal."
"You and Gu Nanqiu are classmates, so there's no need to be so polite. May I ask what Xie Ying's relationship is with this?" The sudden commotion made Yue Yiyue look around awkwardly.
Making sure no one was paying attention to this corner, she tried her best to change the subject.
I should have come out with Koya...
"Before that, Xie Ying told me that she wanted to come to this cake shop to buy a cake. If she could eat the matcha-flavored strawberry cake, she would definitely wish that she would study hard in college and graduate smoothly."
“She sent me a picture of the cake the night before, saying that the cake tasted a bit strange.”
"the next day......"
Liu Mingdian couldn't continue, but Yue Yiyue understood and sensibly didn't press the matter.
"So how is Xie Ying doing now?"
Seeing that the worry in Liu Mingdian's eyes had deepened, she shook her head.
"They couldn't find out what was wrong, and then a witch doctor she knew in her family said that there was an evil spirit involved, and she was powerless to deal with it."
"I thought I'd give it a try and see what would happen. If I did get to eat the matcha-flavored cake and was given the chance to make a wish, I would hope that Xie Ying would be safe and sound."
As she spoke, she picked up another small cake: "Speaking of which, this cake was something I ate when Xie Ying and I had been together for two months."
After saying that, Liu Mingdian let out another heavy sigh.
Yue Yiyue squeezed out a dry sentence from his throat: "It will be alright, there's no need to worry too much about this."
Therefore, this cake is a very important thing.
After exchanging contact information with Liu Mingdian, Yue Yiyue repeatedly told him not to try making this cake recklessly, and that things would be fine later.
Everything will be alright.
After saying goodbye to Liu Mingdian, Yue Yiyue looked at the verification message on his phone that had not yet been approved.
It seems that Zhou Qingyi, this busy man, cannot be contacted for the time being, so she will put it aside for now.
The sun was shining brightly, and Yue Yiyue started walking home.
I need to look up information about making wishes.
I have another class this afternoon, Gu Nanqiu's.
So, there's quite a lot to do today.

"Yiyue, I'm here!" Gu Nanqiu rushed towards Yue Yiyue, took his hand, and curiously examined the small box in his hand. Inside the transparent box was a green cake that looked delicious, but it also had other flavors mixed in.
Gu Nanqiu frowned slightly.
"I ate it and was fine, so I brought it to you." Yue Yiyue turned the box around to show the other side where it had been ripped open: "Pistachio Basque, recommended by someone else. I thought it tasted pretty good, so I wanted to share it with you."
"Oh, I see." Gu Nanqiu smiled, her eyes crinkling. She took the small box from Yue Yiyue's hand. "Of course I like it since it's from you. But Yiyue, have you been seeing someone behind my back?"
"I smell someone else's perfume on you!" Gu Nanqiu said seriously as she leaned close to Yue Yiyue's neck and shoulder to sniff the scent that she disliked.
The smooth hair brushed against Yue Yiyue's neck, making him laugh out loud: "Nanqiu, you look like a puppy right now."
She raised her hand and pinched Gu Nanqiu's nose: "It's Liu Mingdian, Xie Ying's girlfriend from your class. She talked to me about Xie Ying."
"Speaking of which, Nanqiu, do you know about that wishing cake?"
"A wishing cake?" Gu Nanqiu took a step back, saving her nose. She thought for a moment and said, "I don't know. I only know that you've gained two pounds recently and have started to like drinking jasmine-flavored milk tea."
"Also, I bought you that aromatherapy diffuser you glanced at a few days ago. You can pick it up after class!"
"That memory foam pillow too!"
