Chapter 590: Possessed by God
Bai Qingxia leaned her back against the counter and looked across intently. Her clear eyes reflected the girl eating noodles alone in front of her and the sky outside the restaurant filled with orange sunset glow.
Just as I was in a daze, a voice came from behind, "Boss, apron." Aunt Xu walked over from behind.
Bai Qingxia turned around, nodded, took the apron and tied it on. She pushed open the cabinet door, rolled up her sleeves skillfully, tied her long hair into a high bun behind her head with a rubber band, then picked up the ingredients and walked into the store.
Aunt Xu came outside the store, looked up at the sign, and seeing that it was not lit, she reached out and pressed the switch at the door of the store.
After taking a mouthful of noodles, Long Liandong raised her head. Behind her, the four words "Xia Yiwan Noodles" surrounded by colorful lights flickered a few times and then lit up in the Renjian Fireworks Restaurant.
On the playground, Zheng Yifeng and Su Miaomiao were walking on the first and second lanes. Su Miaomiao looked at Zheng Yifeng who was getting farther and farther away from her. Finally, she couldn't stand it anymore and stood behind him with her hands on her hips. She said, "Junior, do you know what a stroll is?"
Zheng Yifeng looked back at her, reacted, and hurried towards her: "Oh, sorry, I was thinking about something and walked faster unconsciously."
He walked back and took Su Miaomiao's hand, smiled at her and said, "We can synchronize our speed by holding hands."
Su Miaomiao glanced at him dimly: "What are you thinking about? You are so absent-minded."
"Thinking about Lu Yuanqiu."
"ah?!"
Su Miaomiao stopped where she was again, listening to her high-pitched ending tone and looking at her wide-open eyes. Zheng Yifeng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and explained, "No, no, this 'think'... means to think."
Su Miaomiao then took another step and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking about what happened to Lu Yuanqiu during the summer vacation of 2010."
Listening to Zheng Yifeng's words, Su Miaomiao also wondered, "Yes, his English level has changed dramatically in just one summer vacation."
"This is the most interesting part. I can say that my personality has changed because I met Bai Qingxia during the summer vacation." Zheng Yifeng said, "But I asked Cao Shuang what Lu Yuanqiu did during that summer vacation. Cao Shuang said that Lu Yuanqiu and he spent every day in the Internet cafe, and he never missed a day. He never attended any English cram school."
Su Miaomiao nodded when she heard this, and she suddenly smiled and said, "I have a guess."
"What?"
"Lu Yuanqiu was chosen by God and possessed by him. From then on, he changed his bad habits, remained kind, and saved all his friends who had problems. Because God is a Western god, Lu Yuanqiu's English also improved."
"It's hard to imagine that this is something a person who used to be a teacher could say." Zheng Yifeng looked at Su Miaomiao blankly.
Su Miaomiao immediately raised her fist and punched Zheng Yifeng in the chest: "What are you talking about!"
Zheng Yifeng smiled. He took out his cell phone and typed to Lu Yuanqiu while asking Su Miaomiao, "When will the new class teacher arrive?"
"It was probably after the city arts competition ended." Su Miaomiao said as she leaned towards Zheng Yifeng's phone: "What did you send to Lu Yuanqiu?"
Zheng Yifeng handed her the phone screen.
『Zheng Yifeng』: Have you been possessed by God?
Su Miaomiao laughed out loud, and then her cell phone started beeping. Lu Yuanqiu replied.
The two stared at the screen in a daze.
『Lu Yuanqiu』: Idiot.
"Uh... God probably wouldn't say these two words. Shouldn't God just say fuck?"
"Not necessarily. In order to be professional enough in possessing a body, God might have also learned the quintessence of Chinese culture."
Su Miaomiao looked extremely confident when she responded.
On the evening of September 18th.
After returning from the last rehearsal, Lu Yuanqiu went to the bathroom and took a cold shower. After wiping his body, he lay on the bed, looked up at his phone, and sent a message.
『Lu Yuanqiu』: If our performance times are similar tomorrow, I may not be able to go to watch your performance in person.
“Ding ding ding.”
『Bai Qingxia』: It’s okay, I will try my best to visit you.
『Lu Yuanqiu』: You are so nice, Xia Xia.
『Bai Qingxia』: 【Smile】【Smile】
『Lu Yuanqiu』:【Kiss】【Kiss】
『Wan Feng - Student Union Arts Department』: Hey, why don't you two chat privately? [狗头]
『Chenxia - Student Union Arts Department』: Isn't showing affection a tradition in your campus? [Sly smile]
Zheng Yifeng: ...
『Zhong Jincheng』:【eat melon】【eat melon】
"Lu Yuanqiu is so awesome, showing off his love in the city art competition group!" Finkel laughed while lying on the bed.
Lu Yuanqiu looked up at the group chat name, then he put his phone down and muttered, "I didn't notice that the group chat was pushed up by yours. I thought it was still the private chat interface between Bai Qingxia and me."
"You're not nervous, are you?" Finkel restrained his smile and raised his head from the bed.
Lu Yuanqiu looked at the ceiling: "Yes, a little bit."
He rested his head on his arms, enjoying the cool night breeze coming in from the window, and said, "My heartbeat is inexplicably speeding up, thump thump. I don't know why, but it's definitely not because of the game."
The Taoist priest and Finkel blinked and thought for a moment, and the uncle lying on the bed suddenly said: "I have had a similar feeling."
"Oh?" Lu Yuanqiu became interested and turned to look at the uncle: "Can you elaborate?"
The Taoist priest also looked over curiously.
The uncle held a plastic fan with an advertisement printed on it and fanned himself while saying:
"When I was 16, I worked as an apprentice for a carpenter. One time, he took a job from someone and took me to that person's home to work. My heart was beating very fast on the way there. But I had obviously taken jobs from this master several times before and was very skilled at it. It was impossible for me to be nervous because of this. When we arrived at that person's home, I finally understood why my heart was beating so fast on the way there."
The other three widened their eyes slightly, waiting for the uncle's next words.
The uncle sat up on the bed holding a plastic fan. He smiled and said, "It turned out that the family had a daughter. I fell in love with her the first time I saw her."
The Taoist priest joked, "Uncle, have you told Auntie about this?"
The uncle responded with a smile, his face filled with happiness: "She is your aunt, my current wife!"
The Taoist priest and Finkel looked at each other and suddenly cried out, "Fuck! I was caught off guard and fed another mouthful of dog food!"
Lu Yuanqiu didn't say anything, but just looked quietly at the uncle sitting on the bed.
At six o'clock the next morning, Lu Yuanqiu washed up early and changed into the third set of clothes of their Yanggu String Band. He wore a black short-sleeved shirt with the name of their band "Yanggu String" printed in colorful fonts on the front.
