Chapter 53
Just when Luo Jiayu thought that the future plans he had envisioned were completely ruined before they were even realized, his childhood friend, who had jumped more than a meter away from him, slowly moved back little by little.
After moving back, he lowered his head and picked up the small cake that he hadn't finished eating just now. He scooped out another piece with his small spoon as if nothing had happened. "This is delicious. Where did you buy it?"
Luo Jiayu: "System Mall, 20 points of heat."
Chu Yu paused in digging with the spoon.
Luo Jiayu realized later that he had spent too much money on this cake, which would bring invisible pressure to others, making his originally casual appearance seem deliberate.
He looked at the person squatting in front of him, his movements frozen in place, not knowing whether to eat or not. His eyelashes were trembling slightly in the dead silence, and he himself hadn't realized it yet.
All the embarrassing moments they had experienced in the past decade or so combined were not as many as today.
Luo Jiayu was silent for a moment. When he raised his head again, he was wearing his usual carefree smile. He deliberately took two steps closer, his talent for nonsense about to burst forth, and he opened his mouth and said:
"Today is the 1,888th anniversary of us completing the entire series of Fire and Ice in the Forest. Why not celebrate?"
Then he pointed at the bright yellow honey cake in Chu Yu's hand and said, "Look, do you see the connection between it and the Ice and Fire Man in the Forest?"
Chu Yu stared at the cake layer and blinked. She wanted to say "not at all", but she still asked to give her childhood friend some face: "What connection?"
Luo Jiayu: "Ice sister is blue, Fire brother is red, and cake is yellow. Together they are exactly the three primary colors."
Chu Yu looked at the cake again, blinked, and after two seconds, he suddenly realized: "Wow."
He raised his head and looked at Luo Jiayu, giving his childhood friend, whose logic was rigorous and perfect, an encouraging thumbs-up: "That makes sense."
The two men shook hands happily and reached another idiotic consensus.
After shaking hands, Chu Yu put down the cake, turned around and dug into his pocket, then took out a box of purple blueberry cakes and handed it to Luo Jiayu:
"This is my anniversary gift to you."
Luo Jiayu originally wanted to put his arm around his shoulders, but when his arm was halfway around his back, he stopped and retracted it. When Chu Yu turned around, he had already put his arm at his side. When he saw the small cake, he smiled with interest:
"What does this have to do with the Ice and Fire Man in the Forest?"
Chu Yu: "Sister Bing is blue, Brother Huo is red, and when mixed together they make the purple of the cake."
Luo Jiayu took the cake and raised his other hand: "Draw inferences about other cases."
Chu Yu high-fived him: "Color genius."
The two of them squatted there for a while, pretending to be little mushrooms. Luo Jiayu began to open the cake box in his hand: "Which floor are we going to eat on later?"
Chu Yu didn't care about this question. While digging into the cake, he casually said, "First floor."
"No, that Sheng Jian Bao restaurant is on the first floor. It's so awful. I don't want to go there in the past few days."
"Then let's go to the second floor."
"The second floor has a strong smell of cooking fumes, it's irritating, and they charge extra for the hot sauce in the window."
"Then let's go to the third floor."
"No, the owner of the first window on the third floor has a face that's too round. He looks like a pan-fried bun."
"..." Chu Yu swallowed the honey cake in his mouth, slowly turned his head to look at the person next to him, and narrowed his eyes, "Then let's jump off the building."
Luo Jiayu also turned his head to meet the master's silent gaze, unconsciously revealing his signature sunny and handsome smile, and even nodded in agreement, commenting with considerable appreciation:
“It’s a very new solution.”
Finally, the two of them agreed to pack their lunch and then take it to the rooftop of the cafeteria to eat together.
It was past lunchtime when they arrived at the cafeteria, and there were hardly any trainees queuing nearby. Chu Yu wanted to buy some spicy hot pot, which she hadn't had in a while, but Luo Jiayu hardly cared for spicy food, so he queued up for a bento from another place.
While waiting at the window, he poked the system in his brain and asked, "How much does that blueberry cake cost in the system mall?"
"Let me see."
After a while, the system's emotionless reply sounded again:
“20.”
Luo Jiayu didn't speak for a few seconds, his head lowered so his expression couldn't be seen clearly, but in the end he just curled his lips lightly: "No wonder I said the size and ingredients are similar, they taste pretty good."
There were few people queuing on his side, so after buying his meal, he went to wait for Chu Yu with his bag.
As a result, his childhood friend hadn't come over yet, and Fu Hansong, who had just finished queuing, came up to him first with spicy hot pot.
"Hey." Fu Hansong took off his sunglasses, and the glaring look in his husky eyes became more obvious. He turned around to look at Chu Yu who was still waiting for the food, then looked at the person in front of him who was obviously a little absent-minded, and asked:
"No holding hands today?"
"..." Luo Jiayu frowned and looked down at the spicy hot pot in the other person's bowl. For a moment, he wanted to pick it up and slap it on the other person's face to let the person who loved to repeat words know how hot fresh vegetable soup was.
"roll."
Fu Hansong, who had received the same person's one-word mantra for the second time today, adjusted his non-existent sunglasses again and stared at him with his husky eyes until he sat back in his seat.
"Huh?"
A vein bulged on Luo Jiayu's temples. He wanted to curse but stopped himself. Just as he was about to open his mouth, he was patted on the shoulder. He turned around and saw the familiar face of his childhood friend: "Let's go."
After Chu Yu finished speaking, she habitually took a step back and stood behind him, waiting for him to lead the way while she followed. However, her childhood friend kept following her movements and turned around, then lowered his eyes to look at her hand holding the spicy hot pot bag.
He moved his fingers: "What's wrong?"
"What does it taste like?"
"It's incredibly spicy." Chu Yu remained calm. "The kind that would make you scream with an allergic reaction and end up in the hospital for three days."
Luo Jiayu pursed his lips, as if recalling some bad memories, and then pursed his lips again, then turned around and said, "Let's go."
The two men went up to the top floor of the cafeteria one after the other, but fell silent in front of the rooftop door with a big lock and a thick layer of dust. They ran downstairs with their take-away bags in their hands. After five seconds of serious negotiation, they decided to solve the problem on the side of the road below the cafeteria.
There is a bush on the side of the road, the flowers of which were almost plucked out by Luo Jiayu, a street lamp that is not lit yet, and a small bench where we can sit together and eat. The sun is shining, and the dining place is perfect.
The two men sat down on the bench, one on each side, just like they did last time when they secretly ate at KFC, with their packed lunch boxes in the middle, not noticing that there was a camera placed in the deep bushes opposite.
[Let me see which two babies are eating here instead of in the cafeteria. Wow, they are my babies.]
I caught this young couple secretly dating during lunch time.
[Why are you two here again? Reflect on why you two cheated on each other so often.]
[Fresh food! Fresh sugar! I'm calling on all my sisters in the super topic to come and eat it!]
Because the camera was far away, it couldn't record the two people's voices and couldn't see their lip movements, so the onlookers could only watch a pantomime.
[Brother Sprayer, you still love to laugh so much]
[Brother Sprayer, your smile in front of Xiaoyu is still so worthless]
[Why does it seem like Xiaoyu isn't in a very good mood?]
[You must have misunderstood the previous one. Doesn’t Brother Baizi have a cat-like face all year round? His expression doesn’t change much.]
[But the troll brother kept talking to him, and he seemed lazy and didn't react strongly, which was different from before.]
[But he responded to every word Luo Luo said. I'm really impressed by you guys. You're just trying to find a knife in the sugar while supporting this CP.]
[Laughing, laughing! Xiao Yu laughed! Those who have been saying bad things about their relationship can stop now and stop affecting us sugar-eating people.]
After a while, Luo Jiayu had finished his lunch box. Chu Yu ate much slower than him. He stood up and walked around the group twice before sitting back down. He leaned towards Chu Yu and tapped his shoulder: "Give me a bite."
Chu Yu glanced at him, picked up a piece of duck blood with chopsticks and put it into his open mouth. Luo Jiayu chewed it and said thoughtfully: "It's not too spicy, at most medium spicy, you lied to me."
The barrage of comments from the onlookers on the other side exploded.
【Ah ...
[Ahhhhh eating the same bowl of spicy hot pot is nothing but a young couple]
[This feeding action is so sweet]
[I've said it before that it's my blessing to have this couple, there's no shortage of granaries.]
After finishing their meal, the two of them skillfully packed up their takeaway boxes and threw them into the trash can next to the streetlight. Then they sat back on the bench and didn't move.
Normally, they should have gone back to the practice room to continue training, but because of the interview recording that was temporarily inserted today, they and their teammates agreed to meet again at 2:30 in the afternoon, which was still some time before the agreed time.
Chu Yu didn't want to go back early. Such a rare and precious time to be lazy was something that could not be found easily. It would be a fool not to show off the rotten things.
He leaned on the bench and saw that Luo Jiayu had not left either. He thought it was normal at first, but after sitting for a long time, the other party did not bring up the topic. He wanted to speak, but found that he did not know what to say.
So I could only remain silent, and then unconsciously clench my palms little by little in the silence.
The difference in atmosphere from before suddenly emerged without the cover of spicy hot pot and take-out boxes.
[What’s going on? It seems like Xiaoyu isn’t very happy today.]
Did he encounter difficulties in training, or did he have a disagreement with others?
[No way, if he's in a bad mental state, everyone will know once a small loudspeaker comes out]
[What's wrong with the baby? Be happy and smile more]
[What the hell is going on? Were these two ever so awkward sitting together before? I'm going to break down.]
[Why aren't you talking? Aren't we good brothers who can talk about anything?]
[Don't be so silent, Mom is really a little scared]
[Brother Baizi is socially anxious and keeps quiet, so it's fine. But what's wrong with you, brother Tanzi? Stand up and talk to someone more.]
[Are they really going to have a fight?]
[It is absolutely impossible. Don’t create panic.]
[What is Luo Luo doing? He keeps taking something out of his pocket.]
Under the hopeful gaze of his mother, Luo Jiayu took out a bamboo helicopter from his pocket.
Then he turned around and the bamboo dragonfly landed on Chu Yu's legs.
Chu Yu looked down at the bamboo dragonfly, then looked up at Luo Jiayu with a look that looked like he was mentally retarded.
A minute later, two people stood in front of the bench, taking turns holding the same bamboo helicopter, trying to see who could fly higher and faster.
"Three seconds! It spun in the air for three seconds!"
"I have five seconds, which is two seconds longer than you."
"I feel like we can apply for a Guinness World Record after we get out."
"I think so too."
"I'm six seconds!"
"Come again, come again."
Luo Jiayu's bamboo dragonfly flew away at high speed on the spot in an unknown direction. He looked around but couldn't find it. The next second, the bamboo dragonfly hit him in the face.
Chu Yu was laughing so hard that she bent over and her shoulders were shaking.
【？ 】
【……】
【I was wrong】
[These two never disappoint me in their ability to make people's eyes go dark]
Those of you who were worried about Xiao Yu being unhappy can rest now. He smiles much brighter than me now.
【Psycho hahahahahahahaha】
[As expected, the condition is stable, so there is no need to worry]
[This pair of patients who are running towards each other is really heartwarming]
[I seriously suspect that before entering the talent show, everyone else submitted resumes, but you two submitted medical records.]
[How funny! Is this the charm of elementary school couples?]
When the bamboo dragonfly was tired of playing, Chu Yu collapsed back on the bench first. For him, after a full meal and a drink, he wanted to sleep. As soon as he lay down, his eyelids began to droop and he felt drowsy.
"Are you sleepy?" Luo Jiayu's voice came from beside him.
Without opening his eyes, he nodded slightly: "Yeah."
"Go to sleep first, I'll call you when the time comes."
"good."
After Chu Yu finished saying this, he closed his eyes completely. The warm afternoon sun shone on his face. There was no one else around and it was quiet. He felt more sleepy.
Luo Jiayu sat next to him, and without the lunch box as a partition, he moved a little closer, and stretched out a hand to block the light near his eyes.
After his childhood friend fell asleep, Luo Jiayu looked around furtively. Seeing no one else around, he secretly took out his cell phone from his pocket.
He asked the system to turn on the invisible mode of his phone, so the camera could not capture his illegal behavior. It could only see a handsome guy staring at his empty hands in a daze.
[Is this because I'm guarding Capibara and I'm afraid of waking him up?]
[This picture is so beautiful, I want to take a screenshot and use it as a wallpaper]
I really admire Brother Baizi's ability to take a nap anywhere. I really want to share my sleep quality with him.
[These two have a really good relationship. When one falls asleep, the other stays by his side. I guess Xiaoyu can only sleep so peacefully with Luo Luo by her side.]
[It’s so sweet, I really like this old couple’s way of getting along]
While fans were lamenting over An Ning's beautiful and sweet moments, Luo Jiayu was browsing the software store with a serious face. Then he clicked on a well-known software called Xiao Di Gua, which was rumored to be filled with all kinds of weird and strange emotional posts.
He clicked download.
After the download was complete, he clicked on it. Without even registering an account, he sneakily entered a few keywords into the search bar:
Childhood sweetheart, secret love, pursuit.
Little Sweet Potato lived up to its reputation, and a bunch of search results popped up as expected. Luo Jiayu's eyes lit up, and he clicked on the most popular post to start reading.
[Title: I've been secretly in love with my childhood sweetheart for thirteen years and finally made up my mind to pursue him. We just got engaged today. Let me share my experience in pursuing him.]
He read every word of the text with the solemnity of an academic researcher:
My childhood sweetheart and I have known each other for over twenty years. He's incredibly kind, talented, handsome, and gentle. I've had a crush on him since elementary school, but I've never dared to break the ice, fearing we wouldn't even be friends in the end...
He lowered his eyes with some empathy, pursed his lips, and paused for two seconds before sliding down.
On my eighteenth birthday, I made a wish for myself: I wanted to catch up with my childhood sweetheart. To this end, I prepared a plan and decided to put it into action on Christmas Day of that year.
Luo Jiayu raised his eyebrows, then lowered them with some anticipation.
It was our family's Christmas party that day. I deliberately got drunk and dragged him into my room, saying I wanted to give him a Christmas present. As soon as he entered, I hugged his shoulders, buried my head in his chest, and cried uncontrollably. I told him I had a crush on someone, but they had rejected me today, so I'd decided to give up and was heartbroken. He looked at me with heartache, rubbed my head, and then said to me...
Luo Jiayu seemed to have opened the door to a new world, his eyes widened a little, and he swiped down again anxiously, wanting to see the content below.
[He said: abandon, a verb, meaning to give up, example: The scheme's investors decided to abandon the project. The project investors decided to abandon the project.]
[#English word punch card#丨#Daily word memorization#丨#English learning#]
Luo Jiayu slammed his phone down.
Then, fearing to wake Chu Yu, he quickly took the phone back.
He didn't believe it and clicked on the second most popular post below.
The title of this post is even more explosive than the previous one:
[Title: After three months of careful preparation, I successfully turned my straight childhood friend, who I had a crush on, gay using this method]
The title is appropriate, targeted, and very eye-catching.
Luo Jiayu flipped through the pages with a sincere heart seeking guidance.
My childhood sweetheart has always been the most popular guy in school! He's incredibly handsome! Everyone sees him as the perfect match! For me, pursuing him was harder than climbing to the sky! But I succeeded! My friends can't believe how affectionate and gentle my childhood sweetheart, who used to seem so cold and aloof, with no interest in love, can be now!
Luo Jiayu slid down with a little nervousness and anticipation.
[Here's the secret! XXX brand men's perfume! I chose a woody cool fragrance. My childhood sweetheart said it smelled like cedar, with a rich, lingering base of white musk. He blushed when he said that because I smell so good, he can't help but lean towards me. This is how to win your dream boyfriend. Click the link below to go directly to the purchase page.

"..." Luo Jiayu frowned and muttered to himself thoughtfully, "Will it really work?"
Click into the comment area, the content is basically the same:

Luo Jiayu turned off his phone expressionlessly.
