Chapter 521 Redemption Must Be Complete
Every time Bai Qingxia cried, Lu Yuanqiu felt as if a knife was stuck in his heart.
He folded the paper and put it in his pocket.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Yuanqiu took out his mobile phone from his pocket again, turned off the shutter sound, then turned around and took a photo of Bai Qingxia who was sleeping on the table. Chi Caocao's confused little face was also in the camera.
After Lu Yuanqiu finished taking the photo, he raised his hand and rubbed Chi Caocao's head, then looked down at the photo, enlarging it and examining it.
...Since you haven't finished collecting your photo album, I will take over. However, if I take the photos, the protagonist in the photos will probably have to be changed.
After putting away his phone, Lu Yuanqiu looked at Bai Qingxia again, the light in his eyes gentle and cautious.
He never expressed his love to Bai Qingxia because he was afraid that Bai Qingxia would feel pressured.
Just now, Lu Yuanqiu made it clear to her that he loved her by writing it down on paper because Bai Qingxia had already bravely taken half a step forward. However, the factor that induced Bai Qingxia to take this half step was just because of "panic" rather than the "initiative" that ultimately made up her mind.
So Lu Yuanqiu had just expressed his love in a relatively light and obscure way, yet at a level that the other person could fully understand.
His purpose was to make Bai Qingxia feel at ease and not be afraid, to let her know that Lu Yuanqiu would only love her forever, and not to worry about Long Liandong's existence.
But don’t let this “like” bring you pressure and continue to fall into the internal friction of self-denial.
If being together would still make him worried, Lu Yuanqiu would rather maintain the current state with her.
More than once he hoped that Bai Qingxia would be happy, hoped that she would laugh, and hoped that every step she would take in the future would be "without worries". What he wanted was a Bai Qingxia who was inner reconciliation and freedom, not a Bai Qingxia whose mind was still trapped in the shackles of inferiority, and who would fall back into the shadow of inferiority as soon as she compared with Long Liandong.
Redemption must be complete.
Bai Qingxia shouldn't care so much about Long Liandong. What she really wants to become is to not take Long Liandong seriously.
Whether it was the photo album from last night or the note Lu Yuanqiu just wrote, the two of them tacitly did not express their love too strongly, but both made the other understand their feelings.
This is a good thing. Lu Yuanqiu has done everything he should do now, and the rest is entirely Bai Qingxia's "self-healing".
Maybe one day, on a sunny afternoon, Bai Qingxia will take the initiative to say "I love you" under the golden sunshine.
It’s not certain what kind of inner reconciliation she will have to go through before she can say this... Maybe it’s Uncle Bai, maybe the opportunity lies in Long Liandong, but no matter what, Lu Yuanqiu is willing to wait.
After the class, Lu Yuanqiu turned his head again and saw Bai Qingxia still lying on the table. Chi Caocao leaned in to listen and said to Lu Yuanqiu, "She fell asleep."
Lu Yuanqiu nodded and responded softly: "Let her sleep."
Bai Qingxia woke up as soon as the second class started. She shook her head gently, raised her hand to brush away the hair stuck to her face, opened her book and listened to the class attentively, as if nothing had happened.
Chi Caocao counted carefully during class, and excluding those he hadn't noticed before, Lu Yuanqiu turned his head to look at Bai Qingxia a total of 125 times in the second class, Bai Qingxia turned her head to look at Lu Yuanqiu once, and the only time Lu Yuanqiu was picking his nose and didn't notice.
After school at noon, Lu Yuanqiu stood up with his books, and Bai Qingxia buried her head in packing her things. After packing, she pulled Chi Caocao out of the classroom quickly. Chi Caocao kept looking back at Lu Yuanqiu, because at this time Bai Qingxia would usually wait for Lu Yuanqiu.
Lu Yuanqiu didn't chase after her, intending to give her some personal space today.
In the Renjian Fireworks Restaurant, Zheng Yifeng and Lu Yuanqiu sat together, while Zhong Jincheng and Luo Wei sat in the corner of the restaurant.
Lu Yuanqiu looked up and saw Zhong Jincheng and Luo Wei eating the same noodle. When their mouths were about to touch, Lu Yuanqiu frowned and immediately looked away.
"Go order some food." Zheng Yifeng reminded.
Lu Yuanqiu walked towards the Xia Yiwan Noodles counter. Bai Qingxia raised her head to look at him, then lowered her head silently.
Lu Yuanqiu: "Two servings of noodles."
Seeing Bai Qingxia reaching out to pick up two spicy sauce packets, Lu Yuanqiu leaned over the counter and said to her face from a close distance: "Boss, we want to eat hot and sour food today."
Bai Qingxia paused, lowered her head and still didn't look at him. She put down the spicy food and picked up the hot and sour sauce packet next to it.
Returning to his seat, Lu Yuanqiu said, "I ordered something hot and sour for you today."
"Why?"
"No reason."
“…”
Zheng Yifeng accepted it silently.
He raised his phone and said, "Our band is number one in popularity."
"Really?"
Lu Yuanqiu opened the forum and took a look. The popularity value was 105,000... It had indeed surpassed the Yu Luo Band. The die-hard fans of the Yu Luo Band were obviously getting anxious and were posting crazily. However, the Yanggu String Band also had die-hard fans now. Seeing that the fans of the Yu Luo Band were posting crazily to increase their popularity, they also posted crazily in the "Yanggu String Bar".
However, Lu Yuanqiu took a quick look and found that most of the posts in "Yangguxian Bar" were titled "Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia are together"...
Could it be that all the die-hard fans of Yangguxian Bar are CP fans?
Lu Yuanqiu couldn't help but feel a little fortunate. Fortunately, he made the decision to perform together with the band and Bai Qingxia. It turned out that it was easier to generate popularity and be popular when hyping up a couple.
The marketing gimmicks of future idol dramas would be a dimensionality reduction attack if they were put on this campus.
He turned to the dance list again and found that Bai Qingxia had also become the first place, even 20,000 more popular than the second place senior sister Shi Ling, and the most popular posts in the "Bai Qingxia Bar" were also content such as "Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia are together".
CP fans are on both sides, right?
Wait, Lu Yuanqiu suddenly saw a post with a lot of likes.
The title is [Parental Love], and the picture below is a high-definition screenshot of him and Bai Qingxia dancing together.
...Well, to be honest, some of Bai Qingxia’s son fans are quite cute.
Zheng Yifeng: "Prepare an original song. The city art competition is still half a year away... How long does it take to create a song? Is half a year enough?"
"Wait a moment."
Lu Yuanqiu said, he lowered his head to type, and sent a message to the lead singer group: "Thank you all for your support and encouragement. Yanggu String Band has become the most popular campus band today."
The group was very quiet and no one was talking.
Lu Yuanqiu suddenly felt bored.
"Original song..." He then looked up at Zheng Yifeng, "I want to write the song?"
Zheng Yifeng said as a matter of course: "Aren't you good at writing? Your Chinese composition score in high school was so high, so if you want to compose music, you can just find someone at home."
Lu Yuanqiu felt a little unsure.
But he likes singing very much, so he remembers quite a few songs after 2012. Although he can't arrange the music, he remembers the tune. If he finds a professional to help, it shouldn't be difficult to copy a song.
But the question is whether to do so.
