Gu Yuze glanced at his watch, then picked up his bag and walked out of the internet cafe. His friend behind him shouted, "Bro, you haven't finished playing yet!"
Gu Yuze didn't turn around, but hurried away, his voice growing softer and softer: "I'm not playing anymore. I'm on a date, who plays games?"
My friend: "Tsk, so what if they're a couple like that!"
Mu Wenxi sat in the corner of the dessert shop, flipping through a recent bestseller, completely out of place with the noisy environment around her.
Gu Yuze strode in, his eyes lighting up: "Wen Xi!"
Mu Wenxi looked up at him: "You've come."
"What would you like to eat? I'll order."
Gu Yuze's voice was a bit loud, attracting the attention of those around him. Mu Wenxi waved for him to lower his head, and Gu Yuze asked, "What's wrong?"
"Speak softly, others are watching you."
Gu Yuze looked at Mu Wenxi and suddenly kissed her nose: "Go ahead and look, it's because I'm too handsome."
Mu Wenxi said helplessly, "Go buy it quickly, I'm fine with anything."
Gu Yuze immediately saluted in a very funny way: "Yes, my dear girlfriend."
After he finished speaking, he left his seat to order food. There were quite a few people around him with smiles on their faces, though it was unclear whether they were laughing at him.
Mu Wenxi put down her book and looked in Gu Yuze's direction. Gu Yuze seemed to notice her gaze, turned around and winked at her.
Mu Wenxi was speechless and immediately went back to reading. A little while later, the person in front of him brought over a tray with a huge cake, about six or seven inches in size, which was too much for one person to finish.
Gu Yuze handed the spoon to Mu Wenxi: "This is Xixi's favorite!"
Mu Wenxi gave him an approving look and slowly began to eat. Gu Yuze stared intently from across the table, unsure whether he was looking at the person or the cake.
Before we had even finished the cake, the waiter came over with a tray: "Your chocolate lava cake is ready."
Mu Wenxi looked at Gu Yuze, who chuckled foolishly, "I ordered it, if you can't finish it, I'll eat it."
"Okay, but I've gained several pounds recently, so I'll buy less next time."
"Mmm, how could that be? You're not fat at all, I understand."
Seeing his perfunctory attitude, Mu Wenxi instantly understood. Every time he agreed, he would send piles of things to the dormitory the next second, making his roommates extremely envious.
"That's about it, I still have class."
Gu Yuze immediately stood up: "I don't have class this afternoon, shall I go with you?"
Mu Wenxi: "Then let's go, young master."
Gu Yuze took Mu Wenxi's hand and walked towards the school: "Yes, my princess."
A group of people happened to pass by and saw Mu Wenxi holding hands with another person, behaving intimately.
"Hey, isn't that Mu Wenxi?"
"What's she doing here? Who's that guy? Her boyfriend?"
"I've never heard of her having a boyfriend. How could someone as sexually frigid as her have a boyfriend? That's impossible."
"Why don't we go up and ask?"
"Are you stupid? It's not a good idea to ask her directly about something like this. It would be strange if we didn't know her well."
Several people followed behind the two, pretending not to know them.
A was a little angry: "Boss, they're talking badly about you."
Mu Wenxi: "Understood."
Gu Yuze: "Xixi, does the teacher take attendance in your class? Will we get caught if I attend class with you?"
Mu Wenxi was somewhat puzzled: "So what if they found out? Good universities should be open."
Gu Yuze asked curiously, "Won't the teacher ask, 'Who am I to you?'"
Mu Wenxi: "I will answer truthfully, but teachers usually don't ask that many questions."
Gu Yuze sounded a little unsure: "Then everyone will know I'm your boyfriend, right?"
Mu Wenxi: "So, you want to be my secret lover?"
Gu Yuze: "No, I'm just afraid of you..."
Mu Wenxi: "Are you afraid I don't want to go public with you? Are you afraid I don't want others to know you're my boyfriend? Gu Yuze, what are you thinking?"
Gu Yuze: "I thought... I thought..."
Mu Wenxi could see right through what the little dummy in front of him was thinking all day long, and gently tapped his forehead.
"Do you think I'm aloof and don't like you? Do you think you only got together with me because you kept pestering me?"
Gu Yuze: "Xixi, I didn't mean that. Did you hear what my roommate said?"
A few days ago, when Gu Yuze was chatting on the phone with Mu Wenxi, his roommate said that Xixi didn't seem very enthusiastic towards him and that he was the one who was giving more. He retorted that Xixi was very nice, but he didn't expect that the call would be overheard because he didn't hang up in time.
Mu Wenxi noticed the few tagalongs behind him and raised his voice.
"It's my fault. I didn't give you enough security. I'm aloof and don't like to express myself. I'm emotionally slow, but that doesn't mean I'm stupid. I would be with someone I don't like, or do something like this."
She raised their clasped hands and shook them.
Although Gu Yuze was a bit slow when studying, he quickly reacted at this moment: "Xixi!"
"Let's go to class and let them know you're Mu Wenxi's boyfriend."
"good!"
Gu Yuze felt extremely secure, and the tuft of hair on his head twitched.
The two arrived at the classroom with ten minutes to spare before class. Most of the seats, especially at the back, were already full. As they entered through the front door, they attracted a lot of attention.
Gu Yuze appeared calm on the surface, but his palms were sweating and he was a little nervous. He always felt inferior and timid when he was in front of Mu Wenxi.
Mu Wenxi squeezed his hand tightly: "Don't be afraid."
She led Gu Yuze to the middle right of the second row. All the other seats were occupied, leaving only some obvious spots, but Mu Wenxi never cared where she sat.
