How does ordering someone to play with you become your girlfriend?

Chapter 151: Faint thunder, gloomy sky (6k7, two words at the end of the chapter)
【Grandpa Ueno’s handwriting is so beautiful】

[I thought he was just bragging. I think it’s understandable that Mamiko fell in love with him.]

As Shinichiro Ueno started the class, he really began to talk about calligraphy as he did before.

"What I learned was the running script from Kanmei Kaiya, the calligrapher of the Meiji period, who was famous for his 'Wang Shu'."

The so-called "Wang Shu" refers to the calligraphy of Wang Xizhi. Many authentic works brought back by the "Tang Envoys" are preserved in Japan, so many Japanese calligraphers mainly use running script and cursive script.

However, Zhao Yu was not very concerned about these things. His attention was always on Youhua next to him.

The current scene was like secretly observing the girl he had a crush on when he was in school, giving Zhao Yu a very novel feeling.

When he was in school, he never thought about things like love due to family reasons. He never experienced the beautiful youth that others experienced.

While others were going out partying with girls, he was concentrating on studying.

While others were making romantic confessions during graduation season, he was working and reviewing his lessons at the same time.

When other people in college were taking their girlfriends out shopping and traveling or going out to check into rooms and surfing the Internet, he was still studying.

Even when he met his former classmates after graduation, he found that their children were old enough to help with cooking, but Zhao Yu had never even met a girl.

Sometimes he also envied those who could find a girl they liked at school.

After all, love in school is actually very pure. It only cares about whether you like it or not, and there are not too many other emotions mixed in it.

He once heard a saying that if you can't find someone you like in school, the difficulty will basically increase exponentially after you graduate and enter society.

In fact, he deeply believed this statement. If he had not met Yuka by chance, perhaps even if he compromised and got married in the future, he might not be able to meet a girl who could make his heart beat.

The time is now getting close to noon, the weather is very good, and the sunlight shining through the shabby windows brings a touch of warmth to people.

It also made the classroom appear brighter, and Zhao Yu could even see the tiny hairs on Youhua's face.

Youhua held her cheek with one hand and held the pen provided by Li Qingwan in the other hand, tapping lightly on the notebook, turning the pen in her hand once or twice from time to time.

Her long eyelashes fluttered from time to time, and to Zhao Yu, her eyes looked as bright and beautiful as stars. Her rosy lips under her pretty nose opened slightly from time to time.

In fact, it’s not much worse than others. At least I have tasted it... Zhao Yu’s eyes stayed on Youhua’s lips.

What if other people have more experiences than you? Many of them may only be able to reminisce about them for the rest of their lives after enjoying the good times.

The saying that graduation season is breakup season is not groundless. Although love came a little late, Yuhua and I are about to get married. From this point of view, we are far ahead of others.

Thinking of this, the regret in Zhao Yu's heart gradually dissipated.

Good things are never too late. Now that you have a partner to accompany you for life, what else is there to be unsatisfied about?

His eyes were fixed on Youhua and he couldn't help but smile.

The girl I like is right next to me, and I am the happiest man in the world.

Under Zhao Yu's obvious gaze, Youhua quickly noticed his little movements.

The pen in her hand stopped turning. She turned her head to look at Zhao Yu, gave him a sweet smile, and her eyes narrowed into beautiful crescents.

This scene was like Cupid's arrow, shooting quickly and accurately into Zhao Yu's heart.

As his heart beat faster, he also had an idea. If he were to have a child in the future, he would never let the child be like him and never experience a campus romance.

As he was thinking this, a small ball of paper appeared in front of Zhao Yu.

He glanced at Yuka, but Yuka didn't look back at him. Instead, she pretended to listen carefully to Shinichiro Ueno's lecture and sat upright in her seat.

Zhao Yu quietly opened the paper ball, and on it was a line of beautiful handwriting.

"Hehe, it feels so good to be in the same classroom with Yujun! Does Yujun have the same idea?"

There was a Q-version man drawn at the end of the note, with a smiling expression on his face.

"Me too, no...not just happy, I even feel like I'm dreaming."

There are still many things I want to say, but I don’t know how to start. Zhao Yu feels that to describe his current mood, he would need to write at least several hundred words.

So Zhao Yu finally only wrote down this simple sentence.

After finishing writing, he drew a Q version man on the paper just like Yuka did, then he crumpled it into a ball and threw it on Yuka's desk.

Zhao Yu breathed a sigh of relief as he glanced at Shinichiro Ueno who was still speaking on the stage.

Good, I wasn't discovered...

Why does it feel like passing notes with Yuka is completely different from passing notes with other boys when we were kids?

Although passing notes with boys also required being careful about being discovered by the teacher at the podium, there was no such sense of anticipation as there is now.

Moreover, compared to sending messages via mobile phone, it has an extra indescribable meaning.

Maybe it’s because online messages are just data after all, but paper notes are more commemorative?
While she was still daydreaming, Yuka's reply was quickly thrown at her.

"Does Yujun have any inspiration now?"

"I have some idea, but it's still a little short."

Zhao Yu already had a vague idea in his mind at this time, but it was not enough. He felt that there was always something missing.

"What else needs to be done?"

"Not for now, this is all I need. I also want to experience what it's like to take classes with you, Yuuka."

[Look! I think I found that Yu Ge and You Hua are cheating! ]

[Hahaha! The two of them are passing notes like crazy! ]

[Fuck! Can we see so clearly from the podium? I always thought the teacher was trying to scare us by saying he could see our little movements.]

The cameraman was standing near the podium to shoot the live broadcast, so the audience's perspective in the live broadcast room was the same as that of Shinichiro Ueno.

The three people sitting below were almost clearly visible to the audience, and they quickly discovered Youhua and Zhao Yu who were absent.

Zhao Yu's sneaky look made some people who had similar experiences instantly empathize with him.

[Suddenly I remembered a girl I liked before. When I was in school, I didn’t know much, but I loved to pull her ponytail. It was not until I graduated that I realized that I liked her.]

[Who isn't? My deskmate would draw the 38th parallel, but I would always secretly cross the line because that way I could touch her arm...]

[Is there anyone who likes to drop his pen on the ground when he is in school, and then secretly see what kind of shoes his deskmate is passing? 】

【unbelievable…】

[This is too outrageous, I don’t know what to say…]

The barrage of discussions was going on here, and Zhao Yu and Youhua were continuing to pass notes, and the frequency was even getting faster and faster.

"Grandma seems very happy? I haven't seen her smile like this in a long time."

"After all, I can see my grandfather's appearance when he was young again, although there are still some differences."

"In that case, she should cook something delicious for us tonight, right? Grandma's stew is delicious!"

"Really? I haven't tried it yet..."

Youhua is a foodie, and when they start chatting, the topic always goes off topic, but Zhao Yu doesn't dislike it.

He likes Yuka's lively nature. Maybe it is because of this that this girl always maintains her innocent character?
"Yujun, what do you think about me learning cooking with grandma?"

"Huh? Why do you suddenly want to learn cooking?"

"Because I want to be like grandma, and see you eat the food I cook and have a happy smile on your face."

As Yuka wrote, she recalled the daily life of the Ueno family. It seemed that she was the only woman in the Ueno family who was not good at cooking.

My mom’s specialty is curry and pickled vegetables, while my grandma prefers traditional stews and miso soups.

But without exception, whether it is dad or grandpa, they always have a smile on their faces after eating the dishes they cook.

Yuka didn't understand it before, but now she knows why. There should be no food in this world more delicious than the food made with care by your loved one.

Although Zhao Yu can cook, Youhua also wants Zhao Yu to show the same smile as his father and grandfather.

"Actually, Yuuka just needs to be herself. I can cook, too. But if you have this idea, I support it. If you cook something that's thoughtful, I'll eat it all with gratitude."

"Hey, Yujun is so nice..."

"Cough cough cough!!" Shinichiro Ueno's cough interrupted the conversation between the two.

He showed a trace of helplessness on his face. Is it so boring to teach? The two children have been passing notes from the beginning to now.

"Oh no! Grandpa found out!" Youhua hid the small paper ball in her hand and mouthed to Zhao Yu.

"It's okay, it's just a simulation anyway..." Zhao Yu also lip-synced to comfort Yuhua.

This made Shinichiro Ueno a little angry. He had already reminded the two little guys so much, but they still didn't give him face?

Okay... since that's the case, don't blame yourself for being cruel and ruthless.

"Ueno Yuka, and Zhao Yu, if you don't want to listen to the class, then stand outside and be punished!" Ueno Shinichiro said.

"Ah? No? Grandpa, there's no need, right? It's just a simulation..." Zhao Yu was stunned and stood up from the chair.

"Don't you understand? Get out!" Ueno Shinichiro remained unmoved and pointed to the door.

"You've been in class together before, haven't you? Standing together as punishment is part of the experience, right? Then give me a good feel for it."

"Okay, I got it." Zhao Yu shrugged, looked at Youhua, and walked into the corridor at the door together.

After seeing Zhao Yu go out, the photographer quietly followed the two of them and went to the corridor together.

Shinichiro Ueno glanced at Mamiko and continued his lecture.

Outside is Yuhua and Xiaoyu's world for two, and inside is just Mamiko and I. This should be considered a win-win situation, right?

"Grandpa must want to spend some time alone with grandma. Don't think I don't know!" Zhao Yu whispered to Youhua in the corridor.

He didn't believe that Shinichiro Ueno would get angry so easily. Judging from the old man's personality, he probably just didn't want him and Yuka to disturb him.

"Who told us two to be naughty in class? Come to think of it, this is the first time I've been punished by the teacher to stand." Yuhua leaned against the wall, recalling the interaction between the two just now, and couldn't help but smile.

"Then should we be bolder?" Zhao Yu said suddenly.

"How bold?" Yuka asked curiously.

"I guess... you haven't held hands secretly in front of the teacher yet?" Zhao Yu approached Youhua, stretched out his hand and interlocked his fingers with hers.

In the slightly cool corridor, Yuhua felt the warmth in her hands, and a sense of security arose spontaneously.

"You just like to do some outrageous things."

Complaining about Zhao Yu in a low voice, Youhua clung to him tightly and rested her head on Zhao Yu's shoulder.

"But... I don't hate Yujun like this."

[Hahaha, they were having a class inside and they were having sex outside, right? 666! ]

[To be honest, if I had been as brave as Brother Yu, my children would be in elementary school now.]

[Indeed, I envy them now...]

[No, I also want to role-play with my wife tonight and reminisce about our school days.]

[Not my friend? Why are there people who are actually getting married after graduating from school watching this? ]

[I’m jealous... You deserve to die! If you get divorced, the guys in the live studio will never let you go! ]

[Of course not! We both lost our passion, but after watching Brother Yu’s live broadcast, I suddenly felt that we had been together for too long and I almost forgot about the girl who had always been nice to me.]

[So everyone rest assured, I will be just like Brother Yu, and my wife and I will always be happy together. Tonight I will spend a good time with her alone! ]

Zhao Yu, who was still being affectionate with Youhua, didn't know that his act of simulating first love on campus not only brought himself new memories of love, but also gave some viewers who had been in love for many years a second spring in love.

Shinichiro Ueno's class didn't last long, and his voice soon stopped in the classroom. With a click, the classroom door opened, and Shinichiro Ueno returned to his amiable appearance.

"Hey, aren't you tired? My little Yuka."

"I just stood there for a few minutes, it's nothing. Are grandpa and grandma happy today?" Youhua shook her head and then spoke.

"Thanks to you young people, Grandpa, I feel that today is the most unforgettable day in my life in recent years," said Shinichiro Ueno.

Shinichiro Ueno, who was born in the early Showa period, acted with a hint of conservatism at that time. He was not as bold as Zhao Yu, and there was no way he could hold hands with Mamiko in the classroom.

But for Shinichiro Ueno, being able to teach her while exchanging glances with her was already an incredibly romantic experience.

He felt that he would never forget everything that happened today even after ten years.

"Mamiko is still the same as before, her eyes are still as beautiful." Shinichiro Ueno said softly.

"Hehe, as long as grandpa is happy." Yuka was also happy for Ueno Shinichiro.

"Aren't you the same? How about it? Does it feel different this time when holding hands with Xiaoyu?" Ueno Shinichiro said playfully as he looked at the two people holding hands.

"Grandpa! Don't make fun of me!" Yuhua said embarrassedly.

“But, I am really happy…”

"Hahaha! That's what love is. Discovering happiness from daily life will make your relationship stronger." Shinichiro Ueno laughed out loud.

"Teacher Shinichiro!" The voice at the door made Ueno Shinichiro turn his head.

Mamiko just stood there motionlessly, holding the notebook in her hand.

"The simulation is over, right? Old woman, there's no need to call me teacher anymore," said Shinichiro Ueno.

"No, it's not over yet, at least for me." Mamiko shook her head.

She was a greedy woman, and she was not satisfied just by reminiscing about the past with Shinichiro Ueno.

"What else are you going to do? I can continue to accompany you, old woman...no, Mamiko." asked Shinichiro Ueno.

"I don't need you to accompany me, I just want to say that sentence again." Mamiko took a deep breath.

"Mr. Shinichiro, actually... I've always liked you! Can you date me with the intention of getting married? Please!"

"Oh!!!" Zhao Yu exclaimed.

Is this what Mamiko's grandmother meant by taking the initiative to confess? It's just as good as Yuka's at the comic convention!

"This...how can I refuse this?" Shinichiro Ueno walked up to Mamiko and held her in his arms.

"Actually, I shouldn't have let you take the initiative all these years, so..."

Placing his hands on Mamiko's shoulders, Ueno Shinichiro spoke seriously.

"Mamiko, I love you more than anyone else. I will be happy with you until the end of the world. I promise."

"Yeah!" Mamiko nodded heavily.

She had waited for decades for such a proactive confession, and now she finally heard it.

"My grandparents' love affair ended perfectly!" Li Qingwan clapped her hands next to the photographer, as if she was applauding the two of them.

"It's so sweet. It feels like I'm watching a love movie that transcends time and space."

Indeed, it is a wonderful experience for two generations of grandparents and grandchildren to be in the same classroom, just like a movie.

"Thanks to the wonderful ideas in your head." Zhao Yu praised.

"Of course not! I have never lost to anyone when it comes to supporting couples!" Li Qingwan puffed out her chest proudly.

"Awesome." Zhao Yu could only give a thumbs up.

"Then let's shoot the next scene? I remember there should be a scene where grandpa and grandma confess their love under the camphor tree, right?" Li Qingwan suggested.

"No, let's two old guys go back first. We've been working on this for so long, I'm afraid Mamiko will be tired." Ueno Shinichiro suddenly spoke.

Although the two elderly people are in good health, they are old after all, and it is already very good that they can come out and accompany a few young people for such a long time.

After all, it was still winter, and Shinichiro Ueno was a little worried that Mamiko would catch a cold, so he thought about going back first.

"Oh? Okay... I'll have someone send you and Grandpa Ueno back." Li Qingwan felt a little regretful, but still understood.

"Since grandpa and grandma can't reappear, let Brother Yu and Youhua take their place! Let's go!"

"I know, don't rush us!" Zhao Yu said as he and Youhua slowly followed behind Li Qingwan and Nanamiya Shiori.

"Old man, do you have this feeling?" Mamiko spoke while looking at Yuka and Zhao Yu's backs.

"What?" asked Shinichiro Ueno.

"Our love seems to continue in our future generations..." Mamiko said.

Whether it is Masao Ueno and Sayuri, or Yuka and Zhao Yu, it seems that the love in the Ueno family has always been consistent and very pure.

"Maybe this is God's favor to us?" Shinichiro Ueno said with a smile.

Ueno Shinichiro and Mamiko quickly left in the car. After the staff sent them back, they would come back to pick up Zhao Yu, Youhua and others.

The remaining photographers and logistics personnel in charge of the live broadcast also moved the cameras under the camphor tree that blocked out the sun. After adjusting the lenses, the live broadcast continued.

"Let me think about it. Grandpa Ueno said that it was Grandma Mamiko who confessed first, and then the two of them held hands successfully for the first time here, so Yuka, you need to act like it's the first time holding hands, got it?"

Li Qingwan looked at Youhua and whispered something to her, then she turned to look at Zhao Yu.

"Grandpa's time was different. Emotions had to be more restrained. So whether it's you or Yuuka, you can't be too bold. You have to fit in with the times. Do you understand?"

"Okay, I know your expertise and I have an idea of ​​what you are doing..." Zhao Yu nodded.

"So let's get started..."

[Hmm? You're addicted to acting, right?]

[Everyone is possessed by an acting spirit, how come the pad director started to be a director? 】

[Aren’t you curious about how grandpa and grandma managed to hold hands? ]

[It's not a re-enactment of my grandparents' situation, what's the point of being curious? ]

[You don’t understand this, right? Do we really need to watch grandparents act out their first love? We have a heroine as cute as Yuuka.]

[Yeah! I just realized that young people still have a better sense of taste! ]

[Hurry up and serve fresh dog food! ]

[Yushen, start! ]

With the preparations of several people, the small theater finally continued.

Youhua stood under the camphor tree with her back to Zhao Yu.

"Yujun, you are here."

"I'm here, Yuuka."

Although it was a simulation of a grandparent scene, at the suggestion of the audience, Li Qingwan simply let Youhua and Zhao Yu start with their own names instead of playing Shinichiro Ueno and Mamiko.

"What do you want from me?"

"Actually, I have been secretly paying attention to Yu Jun... Didn't Yu Jun notice my feelings?"

"I'm just a poor boy, Yuuka..."

"but!"

Pitter-patter! The sound of raindrops interrupted their conversation, and the sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the leaves of the camphor tree made a rustling sound.

[Eh? It's raining? ]

[It’s quite normal. After all, it’s almost March and the rainy season in Japan is coming.]

"It's raining, Yujun." Youhua looked at the sky with a hint of relief on her face.

"Luckily we were under a tree, if we were outside we would have gotten soaked."

"The rain came at a perfect time." Zhao Yu walked up to Youhua and spoke.

The two were interrupted like this, and the emotions that had been brewing disappeared in an instant, and they went from pretending to be strangers to being in love again.

"Are you cold?"

"A little."

Swish! Zhao Yu took off his suit and put it on Youhua.

"This should be better, right?"

"Yeah, much better..."

Yuhua tightened her clothes, feeling the remaining warmth on them.

Crack! A flash of lightning appeared in the sky, and Yuka spoke with a sense of realization.

"There is faint thunder and a gloomy sky, but I hope the wind and rain will come and keep you here..."

This sentence comes from the Manyoshu, and it is very appropriate to use it at this time.

While reciting the Japanese poem, Yuhua's hand uncontrollably reached towards Zhao Yu's hand.

At the same time, the camera also cleverly took a close-up shot, capturing all of Youhua's little movements in the live broadcast room.

When Yuka's hand just reached the halfway point, their fingers touched each other.

"There is a faint rumble of thunder and a gloomy sky. Even if there is no rain, I will stay here." Zhao Yu continued with the next sentence.

"Wow! How come both of them are so talented? I'm so envious..." Li Qingwan made an excited sound.

"Ah!"

Before she could finish, she sneezed uncontrollably.

Although the temperature was not very cold today, Li Qingwan had been running around for so long that she was sweating all over. It suddenly rained and the temperature dropped, so it was normal for her to sneeze.

Suddenly, she felt a warm touch on her body. Li Qingwan touched the extra clothes on her shoulders and turned around to look.

"Put it on, or you'll catch a cold." Nanamiya Shiori didn't even turn her head, just stared at Zhao Yu and Youhua.

"Okay, don't be envious anymore... I also have clothes to wear~" Li Qingwan smiled.

At the same time, the vague song in Zhao Yu's head finally emerged.

"Got it!" He looked at Yuka.

"what?"

"I talk about songs, and now I know what song to write!" Zhao Yu said as he slowly began to sing.

"The rain in May is green, the sadness is beautiful, the afternoon is alone, the love is raining..."

This is a song written, composed and sung by Japanese male singer Takazo Murashita. It is an old song released in 1983 and its name is... "First Love".

Zhao Yu didn’t know about other people’s first love, but for him, his first love was someone’s silly selfie, the light touch of holding hands, the smiles when two people looked at each other, and even the humid February rain now…

I know that my book cannot satisfy everyone, but I can only try my best to write about the parts that I think may be criticized, so some parts are a bit long-winded.

While writing a book and working, I basically had no time for my daily life. The recent National Day holiday also made me exhausted because I didn’t have any rest time. So I really don’t have the energy to explain anything. I can only say that I will give this story a perfect ending.
