Chapter 42
The vacation after the first public performance is extremely short and precious because it is hard-earned. Most trainees will choose to have a good rest during this time to make up for the sleep they lost.
People like Chu Yu, who are already sleepy, become even worse. Apart from eating, he is awake for no more than 8 hours in 24 hours, as if he is sleeping with the heaven and earth.
As for the guy on the upper bunk, he was even more excited, busying himself with this and that every day, but if you looked closely, it seemed that he was not doing any serious work.
One day, when Chu Yu woke up from a long and satisfying sleep, he opened his eyes and saw Luo Jiayu sitting at the long table in the dormitory, conducting some experimental research with a serious face.
On the table were various beakers, measuring cylinders, and chemical reagents that he had taken out of his box. At this moment, a handsome guy was using tweezers to take a paper rose out of a beaker filled with blue solution.
The paper rose was soaked in copper sulfate solution until it was see-through, and its edges and corners were covered with shiny copper sulfate crystals. Luo Jiayu attached a fake flower stalk to it, and when he looked up, his eyes met Chu Yu, who had just gotten up and was looking at him.
Chu Yu looked dazed, a little confused and a little doubtful of everything he saw.
The person at the table picked up the rose along the stem and put it into his mouth. The handsome guy bit the blue everlasting rose, posed, and winked at his childhood friend who was obviously still asleep.
"It's not the roses that are romantic, it's me."
Chu Yu rolled his eyes.
"I must not have woken up yet." He muttered to himself while shaking his head, then fell back onto the bed with a thud, pulled up the quilt and continued to sleep.
Five seconds passed.
Chu Yu sat up in shock from his dying illness and looked at the person in front of him who had not yet had time to spit out the fake rose:
"I want to play too."
Half a minute later, Luo Jiayu gave up his former position as experimental researcher to Chu Yu, who had finally gotten up and moved. She moved a small stool and sat beside him, persistently poking her childhood friend's sleeve with a rose in her mouth.
"There is only one rose, and time is always hesitant."
"Once I finish the one on hand, I'll have two." Chu Yu took the paper rose that she had just ordered according to the mall link given by Luo Jiayu, and slowly began to prepare the copper sulfate solution for her rose.
"How much did you spend on this chemistry gift pack?" Luo Jiayu came over to watch him work lazily.
Chu Yu took the rose from his mouth, compared it with her own, and then returned it.
"Ten dollars and eighty-eight cents. I have a new customer discount, so it's quite cheap."
"Just because my credit score is too low when I buy things on credit in the system mall, they don't give me a discount. It's really unfair." Luo Jiayu lowered his eyes and clicked his tongue.
He watched the sloth stirring the solution for a while, and then came to a preliminary conclusion: after Chu Yu finished making the blue rose in her hand, they could go for a midnight snack.
So he decided to find something else to do around his childhood friend. After thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone and decided to start learning how the hosts of other CPs posted marketing and planned events.
As soon as I opened Weibo, private messages started to flood in again.
The group with the most updated messages was the CP fan group, which was the one that Sister Kuangye had invited him to join. Luo Jiayu clicked on it and saw that their excited content was basically the same, but the way they were excited was like a riot of demons.
[[Screenshot of whispering][Screenshot of hooking fingers][Screenshot of touching hands in the water tank][Screenshot of touching hands twice]]
[I'm almost done with this episode's behind-the-scenes footage. The above are the key scenes. I scream every time I watch them.]
【Ah ...
【Aaaaaaaah, my CP has eight babies in one birth!!】
Luo Jiayu was drinking water and almost choked when he saw the message.
Chu Yu turned around immediately after hearing the voice and asked, "You didn't drink anything you shouldn't have, did you?"
He still remembered that he had two bottles of sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide stuffed in his suitcase. Sooner or later, he would let the two acids and alkalis neutralize each other and completely lose all their aggressiveness.
Luo Jiayu shook his head and continued to scroll through his phone calmly, “I was just reading a fantasy novel.”
"What are you looking at?"
Look, we have eight children in one litter.
Of course he wouldn't say such foolish words.
"Magical realism, a postmodern avant-garde novel." Luo Jiayu said and took a sip of water tactically.
“…” Chu Yu rolled his eyes and turned back to continue mixing his own solution.
If you listen carefully to their conversation, I don’t think it’s like the way ordinary childhood friends get along at all.
[It's not like we're friends, nor like someone we've dated before and then broke up with. That means we're either currently dating or we're just in the ambiguity phase, about to get serious!]
[Sister, your logic is perfect. I think so too. Which good brothers can hug and hook fingers so naturally?]
[Anyway, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are not like this]
[Shuke and Beita are not like this either]
[Pleasant Goat and Lazy Goat are not like this]
Let me imagine again, they were childhood friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, and Lolo suddenly showed up. According to Lolo's outspoken and proactive personality, he probably confessed his feelings a few days after they met. But Capibara might not have been able to see his true feelings at the time, and he didn't want to lose his good friend, so he was hesitant.
[Until the incident during the first public performance, when he was hugged by Luo Luo, he didn't hide, which showed that he was moved. When the final ranking was announced, he mistakenly thought that Luo Luo was leaving and cried for the first time. This cry made Luo Luo realize that Xiao Yu couldn't leave him either. It is estimated that the two confessed their love for each other for the second time that night, and then they got married naturally, and then we had this episode of the passionate couple we saw.]
[Sister, you are right.]
[They've already been beaten to death, no matter what, this is the direction they're heading in my eyes]
[Since we've both confessed our feelings, then we'll sleep together tonight (ecstasy)]
[Ahhhh, are there any wives who can make this kind of food for the children? (Knocking on the bowl)]
From this angle, biting someone's ear is a sign of sweet talk, eye contact before putting on the eye mask is a sign of flirting, and touching hands in the water tank is a sign of wanting to interlock fingers and hug and kiss!
[AAA peerless chief handsome man:? ]
"How can you imagine this?" Luo Jiayu stared at the phone screen in disbelief.
"What on earth are you looking at?"
“A pioneering novel in the post-magical romantic era.”
“…” Chu Yu took a deep breath, picked up the lighter and started to light the alcohol lamp.
[AAA peerless chief handsome man:? ]
Emma scared me
[Little brother, how come you suddenly have time to come here?]
[The host was silent for so long that I forgot there were children in the group]
[Baby, be good. The aunties are talking about grown-up topics. Go do your homework first.]
[Little brother, how many hours do you have left to prevent addiction today? ]
Luo Jiayu gritted his teeth and replied to the messages one by one.
[AAA peerless chief handsome guy: I have finished my homework today and want to come up and take a look]
[AAA peerless chief handsome guy: One and a half hours, what's wrong? ]
[An hour and a half is enough, Xiao Hai, have you seen the latest episode's behind-the-scenes footage? If not, go watch it now! It's got some sweets!]
[Our CP is real]
【Little brother, what did you write in your homework today?】
[AAA peerless chief handsome guy: I watched it as soon as the behind-the-scenes footage came out]
[AAA's peerless chief handsome guy: But I think, maybe they're not talking yet?]
[AAA peerless chief handsome guy: [Little brother, what did you write for your homework today?] Analytic geometry, linear algebra, and the area formula of a triangle]
【Little brother, you are boring now】
[You're a veteran fan of this couple, yet you're still so conservative. Are you rooting for their brotherhood?]
[Sisters, please be understanding. This kid hasn't even graduated from elementary school yet. It's too early for him to be in a relationship. He probably hasn't even touched a girl's hand.]
[Sisters, my little brother is already looking for a gay couple, do you think he will like girls?]
[That means you probably haven’t even touched a boy’s hand]
[[Analytic geometry, linear algebra, and the area formula of a triangle] Awesome, kid! I never understood any of this, but the last one looks a bit off.]
[AAA's peerless chief handsome guy: I think brotherhood is also very good. ]
[AAA's peerless chief handsome guy: Take me and my brother for example. Even though we're not dating, our relationship is stronger than ninety-nine percent of couples.]
AAA's handsome chief: [Amazing kid, I'm...] I'm a child prodigy. I completed college calculus at age 8. Now I'm just catching up on third-grade math.
So, is Xiaohaige really a super topic about brotherhood? [face covering]
[Oh? I'm thinking of a couple. Tell me about how you and your brother get along. Let me see if it's as good as you said.]
[AAA peerless chief handsome guy: It's definitely a good one, guaranteed to be a good one. I'll make a list for you later. It has 100 records of my daily interactions with my brothers.]
AAA's handsome chief: [So I guess you've never even touched a boy's hand.] I have. My brother's.
[Brother, you...]
[Dude, are you really here? The reason you don't support this couple is because they're serving as substitute meals for you and your brother, right?]
[Oh my god, this super topic is over]
[My buddy has a crush on your brother, and a 23-year-old old lady can see through it]
[Who has that emoticon? Send it to him immediately]
I have it! Here it is! [Brother, you smell so good.jpg]
[AAA peerless chief handsome man: ...]
[AAA peerless chief handsome guy: Who do you think is more attractive, our CP or Yu Lu's? ]
We’re a couple! We’re a couple! Hurry up and say we’re a couple! Luo Jiayu shouted in his heart.
[Little brother, are you sure you want to ask this question here? ]
What's the difference between this and calculating the national disease rate in a hospital?
[Just be yourself and don't mention other people's couples. Can't you just be content and eat your own food? You're still ignorant, kid.]
[AAA peerless chief handsome guy: Okay, then our CP is the better match]
[…I said enough, really enough]
[Kids just love to compare. There's nothing I can do about it. If he were a 20-year-old adult, I'd have already scolded him.]
Well, now I don’t even have the honorific title of brother anymore.
[AAA peerless chief handsome guy: You can't scold me, I will upload photos, these photos you can't find]
[Speaking of which, Xiao Hai Ge, do you have any beautiful pictures of us together today?]
[Speaking of which, Xiao Haige, you said your pictures were from a private channel, but it would be better to reveal the source. If they were leaked privately from within the camp, it would be a violation.]
[Yes, you are still young and ignorant. If it is a private photo taken within the camp, then the staff sister who gave you the photo will be fired by the production team after being discovered, and will also have to pay a huge penalty for breach of contract.]
Luo Jiayu's eyes suddenly widened.
Penalty for breach of contract?
He is so poor now that he only has two dollars and fifty cents left in his pocket.
How could the prince of Zhejiang circle fall to such a state?
Luo Jiayu made a prompt decision and decided that he would never be accused of leaking these pictures from the camp.
[AAA's peerless chief handsome guy: Actually, my eldest uncle's second cousin's third sister's son and those two handsome guys were high school classmates. The photos he sent me were all taken in high school, not in the camp.]
Is this true or false?
[I believe it. High school sweethearts have been inseparable all the way to now. It’s so sweet.]
[Then, little brother, can you please get a few more photos from your uncle's second cousin's third sister's son at once? The child is hungry [eyes sparkling]]
[AAA peerless chief handsome guy: Wait a minute, I have another one here.]
"Look, I've finished the first layer of dyeing." Chu Yu poked him as he lowered his head to type on the keyboard, and showed him the light blue paper rose wrapped in his hand.
"Mm, beautiful!" Luo Jiayu praised at the right moment, then picked up his own sparkling dark blue rose and said, "Lend me your rose."
Holding two roses of different colors, the camera lens can just fit the two bony hands, and Chu Yu's hand is even wearing a glove.
Luo Jiayu adjusted the angle, blurred the background, framed half of his childhood friend's profile, and took a selfie next to Chu Yu. The center of the photo was still the two beautiful roses.
"OK." He lowered his head, selected the photos he had just taken and uploaded them, attaching the description he had just compiled.
[AAA's most handsome chief: This is a photo taken when they participated in a chemistry club activity in high school.]
The photo soon received a warm response, and Xiaohaige returned to the altar and is still the respected photo-giving boy.
【I go to Blue Rose】
【Making roses together is a bit too romantic】
[As for how romantic and affectionate you are, little brother, how can you compare with your brothers? Ahh ...
[I am the happiest little girl in the world because I can eat royal food here every day]
He really took great pains to feed CP fans some food that was not against the rules.
If he didn't have only two dollars and fifty cents left in his pocket, he wouldn't feel so frustrated!
Luo Jiayu began to ponder:
"Is there any way to put a lot of money in my pocket out of nowhere?"
