Climbing mountains too high is not good. They may look spectacular, but they are not particularly beautiful and they are also very tiring to climb.
Too low is no good either; it offers no challenge, and once you climb up, you'll feel a sense of 'that's it.'
Liang Zhirou is the kind of person who is just about to be grasped with one hand; it always feels like she could almost hold it with one hand, but she always falls short.
It's like a mirage suddenly appearing in front of a person who is about to die of thirst, making them want to try again and again, always feeling that it is within reach, but in reality, it is so far away.
So you never get tired of climbing.
Liang Zhirou turned her body away from him, letting Chen Lu do his lewd things.
All those self-righteous gentlemen... are fake.
The girl silently complained to herself, feeling wronged. After a while, she quickly bit her finger to keep herself from making any whimpering noises.
So embarrassing...
"Go to sleep, okay..." Liang Zhirou buried her flushed cheeks in the pillow, already begging for mercy.
"Go to sleep, go to sleep." Chen Lu reluctantly withdrew his hand and obediently lay down with the girl in his arms.
He wasn't greedy; after all, everything should be done step by step. Besides, Liang Zhirou had already been very accommodating to him, so being greedy would be going too far.
Back then, Liang Zhirou would be so afraid of even simple skin contact that she couldn't breathe. Who knew how much effort this silly girl had put in for him all this time?
A few minutes later, Chen Lu, who couldn't fall asleep no matter what, sat up in bed again.
"I'm going to the restroom."
......
Around 1 p.m., when Chen Lu woke up, the bedside was empty. Liang Zhirou, as usual, had gotten up early.
He was covered up tightly with the blanket as usual.
He had just stretched and stepped out of the bedroom when he was rammed hard on the head by the FBI, or rather, Liang Zhirou, who was lying in ambush nearby.
He took a hard hit with a rocket headbutt.
"ah--"
Chen Lu was startled. He leaned against the corner of the wall, clutching his stomach and wailing, "What the hell are you doing? If I die, you won't have a boyfriend anymore!"
Liang Zhirou was startled by his reaction and quickly came closer to ask, "Are you alright?"
"good."
After Liang Zhirou realized he was faking it, she gave him a pitiful look and went back to her desk to continue drawing.
Rule number two for guarding against Chen Lu: Never believe a single word Chen Lu says.
After the girl decided not to wear a sundress in front of Chen Lu, she added another rule to her list of ways to avoid Chen Lu.
Chen Lu rubbed the spot where he had been bumped and moved a chair to sit next to Liang Zhirou.
The character on the screen has already been drawn in its basic form: an adorable short-haired girl holding a cute little dumpling in her arms.
It's obviously from the ancient riverbank.
She seems to have watched this anime recently.
He could offer some guidance when Liang Zhirou was first learning to paint, but now he can't help at all. It's possible that after a while, Lin Miaomiao won't be able to teach her either.
Chen Lu does not deny that her rapid progress is related to her talent, but what is even more indispensable is her simple and tireless diligence day and night.
Liang Zhirou's principle in doing things always seems to be to work hard, no matter what she does.
Anyway, he could never do that. He has a natural tendency to slack off, a family trait passed down in the Chen family.
"I've decided to deduct one point from your 'Good Boyfriend Quantification Standard' score," Liang Zhirou said solemnly, still sulking.
Chen Lu found it amusing. What clever tricks had this simpleton learned from her strategist this time?
People nowadays are all looking for strategists who have never been in a relationship. Isn't this just like a dragon looking for a phoenix?
"One point?!" Chen Lu pretended to be in great pain and continued to ask, "How many points do I have left?"
He guessed that Liang Zhirou probably set up a rating system specifically for him, and if his score dropped from ten to six, she would ignore him or something like that.
Liang Zhirou put down her paintbrush, looked up and thought for a moment, then said very seriously, "There are... many more."
Chen Lu: ......
"Then what's the point of you creating this quantitative standard!" He couldn't help but laugh; this goofball was sometimes so adorably adorable it was outrageous.
If Lin Miaomiao thought about how Liang Zhirou would use the methods she taught, she would probably be furious.
The assessment was scrapped as soon as it started—because Liang Zhirou liked him too much and gave him too high an initial score.
It's impossible to deduct all of them, there's simply no way to deduct them all.
"How come it's no longer useful...?"
Liang Zhirou pouted and turned back to continue drawing. She had finally mustered the courage to threaten him, but why was it having no effect at all?
Have you had a stomachache these past few days?
Halfway through the drawing, Liang Zhirou suddenly spoke up.
Chen Lu shook his head. "No, my diet has been very regular these past few days."
Since moving into the rented apartment, Liang Zhirou has taken full responsibility for his daily life, ensuring he eats three meals a day at a very regular pace, making it difficult for him to even have a stomachache.
Even cooking for this silly boy requires a fight with her. Liang Zhirou has her own little stubbornness in this regard.
Back when he was at home, he was too lazy to get up in the mornings. Wang Xiaoxia would at most scold him, but if she couldn't get him up, he would just grumble and go to work.
Liang Zhirou is different; she'll even bring the food directly to you and feed you. No matter how lazy you are, you'll obediently eat your breakfast.
"Have some hot water, I'll go make you some," Liang Zhirou said, standing up.
"Can I get a point if I obediently drink hot water?"
Liang Zhirou nodded gently and said softly, "Sure."
