Chapter 254 The Real World



The other students in the class had left at some point, and they were the only two left in the classroom.

Wen Qing stared at Yiou in a daze. Yiou's brows were dark, and he had restrained all his nonchalant temperament, with seriousness in his eyes.

He waited until everything was over before he confessed to himself seriously.

In an instant, various people and scenes flashed through Wen Qing's mind, and he suddenly understood why he was different when he was in another world.

Because Io is loved.

Wen Qing looked at Yiou without blinking, but his heartbeat was already irregular and he felt an inexplicable sour feeling at the tip of his nose.

Seeing Wen Qing looking at him without saying a word, Yio couldn't help but licking his lips, feeling a little unsure.

Noticing the new phone in Wen Qing's hand, he bent his fingers, tapped the table lightly, and said to Wen Qing: "You bought a new phone."

Wen Qing came back to her senses, lowered her head following his gaze, sniffed, and hummed slowly.

I still haven't realized how the topic jumped so quickly.

"I forgot," Io said slowly, with his fingertips on the table, his eyes lowered, staring at him, "I changed my phone."

"I'll repeat that."

Now Wen Qing remembered that the last time Yiou talked to him on WeChat, he used a cheap excuse that his phone was broken.

[I'll say it again when you get a new phone. ]

At the same time, Io's voice sounded above his head: "Have you considered liking me?"

I have considered it...

Wen Qing opened his mouth and said slowly: "I have a question I want to ask you first."

Yiou looked at him and suddenly laughed: "Okay, I'll wait a little longer."

His tone was tinged with smile, as if he was doting.

Wen Qing's cheeks gradually became hot. He was worried that Yiou would think too much, so he emphasized the question before asking it: "This is a very important question."

"I know." Io sat sideways on the chair and looked at him quietly.

Wen Qing pursed his lips and said, "You just said that you need to be responsible for the small world, so you divide it into many parts."

Thinking of this, he looked Io's body up and down. Compared with before, there was no change in appearance.

"So now..." Wen Qing paused, lowered his voice, and asked cautiously, like a thief, "Isn't the world going to end or something?"

“…”

Io was silent for a moment, then seemed unable to help himself and let out a muffled laugh.

Wen Qing's cheeks flushed with his smile, and she repeated in a low voice: "This question is really important."

It concerns the life and death of mankind!

"Yes, it's very important." Io was still smiling, his eyes curved with laughter, "I have solved the important problem."

Wen Qing was slightly startled.

Yiou stopped laughing for a moment and said seriously, "Once the world runs stably, my existence will not be important."

“It’s time to do something I’ve always wanted to do.”

Wen Qing looked at him, and was distracted again. What he had always wanted to do...

Is it just about love?

Seeing this, Io came forward, almost nose to nose with him: "You are in a daze again."

"What are you thinking about?"

Wen blinked briefly, feeling Io's breath brushing against his cheek.

He subconsciously tilted his head back, distanced himself, and blurted out: "I was thinking... you are a love-brained person."

Yio: “…”

He looked at Wen Qing and felt even more unsure.

He was sure that Wen Qing had feelings for him, but he was not sure whether this feeling had been exhausted by other fragments, nor was he sure whether this feeling was enough to make Wen Qing agree to his confession.

The classroom door was suddenly pushed open.

Two classmates walked in, and seeing that there were still people in the classroom, they were stunned for a moment and said, "Excuse me, classmates, we have to have a class meeting in this classroom now."

"If you don't mind, you can study here."

"Let's go now." Wen Qing quickly put on his schoolbag, turned around and left.

There are not many students on campus at night, and the boulevard is very quiet.

Wen Qing took two steps and couldn't help but glance to the right.

Io walked on his right side, following quietly, without further discussing the previous topic.

Yio didn't say anything, and Wen Qing didn't know how to start talking.

He had never had the experience of receiving a confession of love from anyone in his life, and now he didn't know how to respond.

Should I wait for Io to ask again?

Or do you take the initiative to speak up?

What would you say if you took the initiative to speak?

Have I thought about it?

Wen Qing's mind was in a mess. He thought about it for a long time, then he mustered up the courage and stopped.

When he stopped, Io's steps also stopped.

Wen Qing raised his eyes and saw that Yiou's brows were slightly frowned, as if he was thinking about something.

He whispered: "That..."

Hearing his voice, Io lowered his eyes with a hint of nervousness in his eyes.

Wen Qing blinked, not expecting Yio to not know what he was thinking.

In the past, you could tell what I was thinking at a glance, but now... it's quite humane.

Wen Qing couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips.

Io said, "You still owe me a reward."

Wen Qing was confused: "Ah?"

Io stared at him and reminded him, "When we were in Rose Castle."

"You promised to give me two rewards."

After a while, Wen Qing dug out the conversation from the corners of his memory.

Can I ask you for a reward?

【You can have anything you want! 】

Can I have two rewards?

【……Can. 】

After briefly recalling the scene when Yiou was playing tricks, Wen Qing asked slowly, "What reward do you want?"

Io said slowly: "I want you to consider me seriously and carefully."

Wen Qing was stunned.

Io's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the corners of his lips were tightly pursed. He was no longer as calm as before, and his tone was a little faster: "Although they are my fragments, their actions are not under my control."

"Don't make decisions lightly just because of a few bad guys."

Wen Qing looked at him and couldn't help but smile: "I have thought about it."

"You can keep that reward for later."

After hearing the next two words, the nervousness in Io's heart gradually disappeared.

Wen Qing raised his face, looked at Yiou, and said seriously: "I actually never expected anything, because the higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment."

He pinched his palms and exhaled: "But now I want to look forward to what the future will be like."

“Our future.”

Io stared at him for a long while without saying a word.

Wen Qing was getting a little nervous because of his gaze, and couldn't help but pull his sleeve: "Why don't you say something?"

Io suppressed the attempt to raise the corners of his lips and confirmed again and again: "So you accept me, right?"

Wen nodded lightly, responded softly, and her cheeks turned red uncontrollably.

"Then let's do it now..." Io's brows relaxed and he returned to his usual nonchalant expression. He curved his lips and spoke slowly.

Various idioms and words flashed through Wen Qing's mind, such as mutual affection, being in love with each other, etc., but in the end, he waited for another four words.

"Go get the certificate."

Wen Qing: “???”

Perhaps seeing his surprise, Yiou said calmly: "I won't let you down."

Wen Qing: "Is there any connection between disappointment and getting a marriage certificate?"

Io: "The next stage of dating is marriage."

"Aren't you looking forward to our future?"

It sounds like it makes sense...

Wen Qing was silent for a moment, then said to him: "...too fast."

"Quick?" Io paused, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Not counting the time I've known you, we've been roommates in this world for two months."

Wen Qing was a little confused: "When did you get to know me unilaterally? When did you get to know me?"

"Don't interrupt," Io raised his hand and rubbed his head, and continued, "Two months in the real world, and we have been together for a long time in the other world. If you count from the time I became the guide, it's about a year-"

Wen Qing couldn't help but interrupt again: "When I was guiding people, I didn't have the system yet."

Io responded and said casually, "But there are other fragments."

Wen Qing: “…”

"You just said not to make a decision easily because of the fragments."

"Really?" Io raised an eyebrow and said nonchalantly, "I take that back."

Wen Qing: “…”

He was silent for a while, then said, "It's getting late, we should go back to the dormitory."

After saying that, Wen Qing walked towards the school gate.

Yiou followed closely behind and asked slowly: "Then can I use the reward here?"

Perhaps worried that he might think of something else, Yiou emphasized, "Regarding getting the certificate."

Wen Qing: “…No!”

Yiou continued to ask: "Can we sleep together in the South City neighborhood tonight as a reward?"

South city community?

Wen Qing paused, glanced at him, and asked suspiciously, "Why do you want to go to the community?"

"Is there anything you want to do?"

Yiou nodded, with a frank look on his face: "I want to do something naughty."

Wen Qing: “…”

He walked forward quickly with a blank expression on his face.

When they reached the school gate, Yiou's cell phone rang.

"It's Song Qiang." Yiou said and answered the phone.

Even from a distance, Wen Qing could hear Song Qiang's loud voice on the other end of the line: "Yiou, are you and Wen Qing together?"

Yiou hummed, raised an eyebrow and asked, "How do you know that we are... together?"

He deliberately emphasized the three words "together".

Wen Qing: “…”

Song Qiang didn't notice Yiou's strange pause at all, and shouted, "Give the phone to Wen Qing."

Wen Qing took the phone and heard Song Qiang say, "Where are you now?"

Wen Qing: "At the school gate."

"That's good, that's good," Song Qiang said quickly, "bring me some midnight snacks when you come back!"

"I saw someone from the next dormitory brought back pork ribs and rice cakes. Is the old lady setting up a stall at the school gate again?"

Wen Qing looked around and saw a pork ribs and rice cakes granny pushing a cart under a tree nearby. She replied, "Yeah, I saw it."

"I've been waiting for a month for grandma to finally come out of confinement," Song Qiang's voice became excited, and he said hurriedly, "I want three large portions, slightly spicy."

"Okay," Wen Qing responded, a little puzzled, "Why don't you just call me?"

Song Qiang sighed quietly: "I don't know how many times I've called you."

"You didn't answer, so I had to call Io. Luckily you two were together, otherwise I would have rushed to the school gate."

Hearing this, Wen Qing picked up his phone, which had more than a dozen calls and 99 WeChat messages.

Because of the do not disturb mode, there are no reminders.

Wen Qing was about to explain the reason when his cell phone was suddenly taken away by Yiou.

Yiou asked Song Qiang on the other end of the phone again: "How do you know that Wen Qing and I are together?"

Song Qiangda said carelessly: "Why don't I give it a try?"

Io didn't want his answer, and said: "I mean--"

Before he could even say the word "together", he heard Song Qiang say, "The game is on. I'm going to hang up first. Bye."

Yio: “…”

Wen Qing guessed what Yiou wanted to say, so he ignored him and strode towards the pork ribs and rice cakes stall: "I want four large portions of pork ribs and rice cakes, slightly spicy."

"Okay." Grandma responded and started frying rice cakes.

Not long after, two more girls came to the stall: "Grandma, I want two small portions, very spicy!"

"Okay."

Wen Qing stared at the rice cake in the frying pan and felt Yiou's gaze on his face, naked, without moving away at all.

Suddenly, the girl next to him asked, "Classmate, are you also from South City University?"

Wen Qing tilted his head to look over, and saw one of the girls staring straight at Yiou.

Yiou raised his eyelids and did not answer the girl's question. Instead, he said to her, "Classmate, I'm already taken."

The heroine was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly: "Okay, okay."

The next second, Yiou raised his hand and put his arm around Wen Qing's shoulders: "He too."

“There’s grass.”
