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

Chapter 578 Let's try a hug!

"Aunt Zhang is still here, you can shave yourself..."

Bai Qingxia whispered, reaching out to grab Lu Yuanqiu's arm, but Lu Yuanqiu shamelessly spun around in front of her, pulling his hand away while muttering, "My hand's gone, my hand's gone~"

Seeing Lu Yuanqiu circling around in front of her, making it impossible for her to hold onto him, Bai Qingxia chuckled and scolded in a low voice, "Lu Yuanqiu, you're so childish."

"I'm childish? Who'll be more clingy in the future? Who'll be more childish? Who knows?" Lu Yuanqiu turned around as he spun around, glancing at her with a smile.

The word "later" inexplicably touched Bai Qingxia's heart. Her eyes were filled with gentle shyness as she quickly grabbed Lu Yuanqiu's arm and compromised, "Okay, okay, don't move, I'll help you."

"Hehe." Lu Yuanqiu smiled and straightened up.

Bai Qingxia reached out her hand and said reproachfully, "Get closer."

The razor in her hand had just touched Lu Yuanqiu's chin when Lu Yuanqiu suddenly grabbed her wrist. "What's wrong?" Bai Qingxia asked.

Lu Yuanqiu didn't respond, but turned his head to look in the direction of the living room. Bai Qingxia followed his gaze and found Bai Songzhe standing against the corner of the wall, looking in their direction.

Baek Song-cheol wasn't there before; he just walked to that spot by himself.

"Dad?" Bai Qingxia called out and hurried over. Lu Yuanqiu took the razor from Bai Qingxia's hand and followed behind while shaving his chin.

"Huh?" Aunt Zhang, holding a broom, walked over to Bai Songzhe and looked at him with a puzzled expression. She then glanced back at the spot on the living room sofa where Bai Songzhe had just been sitting and asked in surprise, "When did he come over here? Did he walk here by himself?"

Bai Qingxia nodded quickly, "I think so." After she finished speaking, she grabbed Bai Songzhe's arm and shook it gently, asking with concern, "Dad? Can you say something? Do you still recognize me?"

Bai Songzhe remained silent, simply observing Lu Yuanqiu, who was shaving across from him.

Lu Yuanqiu also looked at the other person curiously. He turned off the electric shaver, leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, and couldn't help but say, "Why do I feel like Uncle Bai has been paying a lot of attention to me lately?"

"Huh? Really?" Bai Qingxia turned around.

Lu Yuanqiu nodded: "Yes, of course his eyes are unfocused most of the time, but when we're eating or watching TV, he's looking at me most of the time."

As Lu Yuanqiu spoke, he noticed that Bai Songzhe's eyes were gradually losing focus again, and his expression became wooden.

"Or rather... because when we were eating and watching TV, including just now by the sink, it was because you and I were close that he observed me every time he did so, and it was because you were next to me at the time?" Lu Yuanqiu said to Bai Qingxia.

Bai Qingxia was still puzzled. Lu Yuanqiu thought for a moment, and the next moment, in front of Aunt Zhang and Bai Songzhe, he pulled Bai Qingxia into his arms and hugged her. Aunt Zhang suddenly opened her eyes wide in a daze, and Bai Qingxia also looked up at Lu Yuanqiu in a daze.

Only Lu Yuanqiu was observing Bai Songzhe at this moment.

really!

Bai Songzhe slowly raised his gaze and looked at Lu Yuanqiu again, his gaze still carrying an air of "observation".

"Look, look, look quickly!" Lu Yuanqiu hurriedly reminded him.

Bai Qingxia turned around in his arms, and then heard Lu Yuanqiu's voice from above her head: "He was looking down at the ground with his eyes vacant just now, right? But when I hugged Bai Qingxia, he slowly raised his eyes and looked at me."

Aunt Zhang nodded blankly to the side: "It seems so."

Bai Qingxia also noticed the changes.

Lu Yuanqiu: "Could it be because your father saw you behaving intimately with a boy, and he got angry and his emotions changed?"

"No, my dad knows you."

"That's the state he knew me in before. Didn't the system update now? Uh... I mean, it's in a new state now." Lu Yuanqiu looked down at her.

Aunt Zhang slowly shook her head. She didn't think Bai Songzhe was angry, and neither did Bai Qingxia. Bai Songzhe's gaze was purely one of observation, scrutiny, or rather... curiosity.

"Uncle Bai? Do you still recognize me?" Lu Yuanqiu called out. Bai Songzhe ignored him.

The girl in his arms stirred, and Lu Yuanqiu realized what was happening and released his arms. Bai Qingxia looked at Bai Songzhe again, and after about a minute or two, Bai Songzhe finally shifted his gaze away from Lu Yuanqiu.

"Would you consider this a positive stimulus?" Lu Yuanqiu suddenly asked.

"You mean..."

"I mean, how about we kiss, hug, and lift each other up high in front of your dad often, and give it a try?" Lu Yuanqiu stroked his chin with his fingers forming an "eight," analyzing the situation with a serious expression.

Aunt Zhang then tactfully picked up her broom and walked away.

Bai Qingxia cleared her throat and looked up at Lu Yuanqiu's expression. She found that Lu Yuanqiu looked righteous, but it was so righteous that it was almost sinister. Bai Qingxia twitched her lips and looked away, saying, "How about we try hugging...let's see."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yuanqiu pulled Bai Qingxia into his arms again. Bai Qingxia was completely bewildered and not prepared at all. Lu Yuanqiu seemed to be suppressing a laugh. Aunt Zhang from the restaurant looked up and glanced at her, then lowered her head again to continue sweeping the spotless floor.

"Your dad isn't responding."

"Yes, he's not watching anymore..."

"Your dad can't hear our plans, can he?!"

"...He wasn't deaf to begin with."

"No, I thought he couldn't handle this information... Never mind, let go and hug him again."

Aunt Zhang saw Lu Yuanqiu push Bai Qingxia away and then pull her into his arms, a scene that made her lower her head and chuckle.

"Oh no, he's really not going to watch anymore. How about you give me a kiss?"

"...I'm not playing anymore."

"What do you mean 'play'? This is rehabilitation training!"

"It's no use, he can't really talk..."

Bai Qingxia walked to the sofa in the living room and sat down, picking up Ranran, who was exploring a new map, and placing her on her lap.

Lu Yuanqiu felt a little regretful. Perhaps he was only one step away from recovery. He was prepared to make sacrifices, but Bai Qingxia let him down. It was a pity.

Seeing that Bai Qingxia had turned on the TV in the living room, Lu Yuanqiu, having nothing else to do, sat down next to her.

The two of them played with Ranran in their arms while watching Chinese Paladin 3.

Just then, Bai Songzhe, who was standing by the wall, raised his eyes again and looked at the two people sitting close together on the sofa, but neither of them noticed.

……

July 15th.

Bai Qingxia arrived at Lu Yuanqiu's room on the 17th floor. The two sat on the bed and used Lu Yuanqiu's computer to log on to the official website of the Zhucheng 919 City Arts Competition.

Lu Yuanqiu checked the categories and couldn't help but complain: "There are so many categories for artistic skills. How come there's even a crosstalk competition? I've never seen this on the Tieba rankings."

Bai Qingxia laughed out loud.

Lu Yuanqiu opened the dance category and looked at the competition themes announced for this year's dance category.

The two of them were stunned by the three words that came into view.
