Rebirth: At the beginning, the cool school beauty was caught stealing in the supermarket

Chapter 577 Because Your Stubble Grew

Long Liandong didn't rush to respond, but simply told Fang Ran to leave first.

Lu Yuanqiu watched the guy hurriedly leave with his laptop and said with a smile, "That guy is quite funny."

Long Liandong: "He's not famous, but he has real talent and is just a little bit unlucky... That's how my grandfather described him."

Lu Yuanqiu: "You mean if my song becomes popular, it might become his signature song?"

"Almost... Actually, what you wrote is quite good. I've read a bit of it. If his composition is good, it should be able to break out in a small circle. But I still don't think he's very reliable. You can check the results in a week. If it's not good, I'll help you find someone else."

"thank you."

Lu Yuanqiu handed her her coffee, took a sip of his own, and asked, "How about I treat you to dinner?"

Does Bai Qingxia know that you asked me for help?

"She doesn't know... but it doesn't matter whether she knows or not, mutual trust is the foundation of our relationship."

"So she was hostile towards me before?"

Lu Yuanqiu paused for a moment, recalling everything that had happened, and explained, "Because she believed in me, but she didn't believe in herself."

Long Liandong took a small sip of her coffee: "I'm quite curious about her. She must be a girl with a lot of stories, right?"

Lu Yuanqiu took a deep breath and said with a smile, "If you become good friends with us, I believe she will tell you her story willingly. Actually, I think it would be quite interesting to see your personalities together."

Long Liandong didn't say anything.

No matter what happened, she remained indifferent, just like Zheng Yifeng, who used to just lie on the table and sleep no matter what.

Lu Yuanqiu only remembered that she had two changes in expression. Once was when she heard that Lu Yuanqiu was also reading Keigo Higashino during military training, and she smiled. The other time was a few months ago after she finished drawing a picture for Lu Yuanqiu, and she cried... Lu Yuanqiu did not see her crying, as her sketchbook was completely covered, but Lu Yuanqiu remembered that her eyes were red when she left.

Long Liandong took another sip of coffee, then stood up and said, "Let's go for a walk, then you treat me to dinner, and then we'll go home."

"Ah."

Lu Yuanqiu breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't really like owing this girl, who was sometimes even less eloquent than Bai Qingxia. Although a meal couldn't make up for the favor she had done, it was still a small compensation.

"What do you want to eat?"

"Take me to eat whatever you usually eat."

"I ate street food, are you used to it?"

If you can get used to it, I can get used to it too.

Lu Yuanqiu smiled and put his hands in his pockets. In his previous life, he really missed out on a lot of interesting people.

On July 7th at noon, Lu Yuanqiu received the first audio file sent by Fang Ran. The singer's voice was similar to his, and Lu Yuanqiu guessed that Long Liandong had shown Fang Ran some videos of him singing.

Actually, Lu Yuanqiu thought this version was already pretty good, but Fang Ran kept asking him if there were any flaws. Lu Yuanqiu felt that he couldn't give a professional evaluation, but in order to strive for perfection, he still gave some suggestions from a layman's perspective, like nitpicking. Fang Ran gladly accepted and said that there was no problem and that he would revise it again.

Lu Yuanqiu wanted to give this guy a good review because of his responsible attitude, but Long Liandong silenced him the next second.

『Long Liandong』: I overheard him scolding you for pretending to know what you don't, and I warned him that if he did it again, I would replace him.

Lu Yuanqiu: ... Damn it, this guy deserves to be unknown.

As lunchtime approached, Lu Yuanqiu quietly went out, pressed the elevator button, and went to the sixth floor to have lunch at Bai Qingxia's house.

In just one week, he had already eaten six meals at Bai Qingxia's place. Lu Yidong had come five times, and Lu Tian had come three times. Lu Yuanqiu didn't want to bring either of them today.

It's not like you don't have hands; can't you cook for yourself at home? How can you be so shameless as to go downstairs every day to freeload off other people's meals?
"Ding-dong~" The doorbell rang.

Bai Qingxia opened the door. Lu Yuanqiu, with one hand against the wall and one leg crossed, slowly raised his head and blinked his left eye: "Hello~"

Bai Qingxia stared at him blankly, then blushed slightly and glanced behind Lu Yuanqiu. Lu Yuanqiu said, "Don't look, I'm the only one here today."

“Oh…come in.” She backed away.

A lot of new slippers were bought next to the shoe rack, mostly for Lu Yuanqiu's family of four. Lu Yuanqiu liked to wear the pair of gray wolf slippers. Once, Lu Tian didn't notice that they were worn, so Lu Yuanqiu used a shoe brush to wash the slippers three times at Bai Qingxia's house.

"What delicious food did you make today?" Lu Yuanqiu followed behind Bai Qingxia, his hands on her shoulders.

"There are shrimp, fish, and duck meat."

"So rich?"

Bai Qingxia puffed out one cheek and didn't say anything. Actually, none of the three women, including Bai Songzhe, ate much meat. However, Lu Yuanqiu had been frequently eating at their place lately, so Bai Qingxia would buy a more lavish spread of groceries every day.

Seeing Ranran walking around the living room, touching the table, Lu Yuanqiu secretly picked her up and shouted, "Ranran is so amazing! She's even mapped out the living room!"

The little girl had already heard Lu Yuanqiu's voice and wasn't frightened. She giggled like a child on Lu Yuanqiu's shoulder and touched his cheek. Even without hearing his voice, she could tell who someone was just by their facial features, but only by recognizing the four adults in the room at that moment.

The person feeding Bai Songzhe at the dinner table was no longer Bai Qingxia, but Aunt Zhang. While eating, Lu Yuanqiu looked at Bai Songzhe sitting opposite him and suddenly found that Bai Songzhe was also looking at him. Lu Yuanqiu gave him a surprised look, but Bai Songzhe slowly looked away and his eyes continued to become dull.

"Has your father spoken lately?" Lu Yuanqiu asked.

Bai Qingxia shook her head, but Aunt Zhang said, "There's something I forgot to mention. In June, Ranran almost fell as she walked past him, and Lao Bai reached out and caught her."

Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia both looked delighted.

"What a good omen!" Lu Yuanqiu exclaimed.

Bai Qingxia also stood up and happily picked up a tissue to wipe her father's mouth.

After dinner, Lu Yuanqiu looked at Ranran, who was still pacing around the living room, and complained to Bai Qingxia, "Why is Ranran starting to call me 'uncle' but still calling you 'sister'?"

Bai Qingxia didn't speak, but stared at Lu Yuanqiu's face. She slowly raised her slender white hand and stroked Lu Yuanqiu's chin with her fingertips, then smiled and said, "Because you've grown stubble."

"Oh really?" Lu Yuanqiu turned to look at the mirror by the sink, stroking his chin, when he suddenly heard a buzzing sound from the side. He looked to the side and saw Bai Qingxia handing him an electric shaver.

Seeing that Lu Yuanqiu didn't reach out, the girl blinked her clear eyes and pushed her hand forward again.

Lu Yuanqiu put his hands behind his back, bent over, and moved his face closer to the girl.

The two stared at each other, the only sound between them the buzzing of the electric shaver.

　Two updates.
