Chapter 590 Possessed by God

Bai Qingxia leaned against the counter, gazing intently across the street. Her clear, bright eyes reflected the girl eating noodles alone in front of her, and the orange sunset sky outside the restaurant.

As I was lost in thought, a voice came from behind, "Boss, apron." Aunt Xu walked over from behind.

Bai Qingxia turned around, nodded, took the apron and tied it on. She pushed open the cabinet door, deftly rolled up her sleeves, tied her long hair into a high bun at the back of her head with a hair tie, and then picked up the ingredients and walked into the shop.

Aunt Xu went outside the shop, looked up at the signboard, and seeing that it was not lit, she reached out and pressed the switch at the shop entrance.

After taking a bite of noodles, Long Liandong looked up. Behind her, the four characters "Xia Yiwan Mian" surrounded by colorful lights flickered a few times before illuminating the Human World Restaurant.

On the playground, Zheng Yifeng and Su Miaomiao strolled along the first and second rows of the track. Su Miaomiao watched Zheng Yifeng getting further and further away from her, and finally couldn't bear it any longer. She put her hands on her hips behind him and said, "Junior, do you know what a walk is?"

Zheng Yifeng turned around and looked at her, then realized what was happening and quickly walked towards her: "Oh, sorry, I was thinking about something and I walked fast without realizing it."

He walked back, took Su Miaomiao's hand, and smiled at her, saying, "If we hold hands, we can synchronize our speeds."

Su Miaomiao glanced at him with a deep look in her eyes: "What are you thinking about? You seem so lost in thought."

"I'm thinking about Lu Yuanqiu."

"what?!"

Su Miaomiao stopped in her tracks again. Hearing her drawn-out tone and seeing her wide-eyed stare, Zheng Yifeng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and explained, "No, no, this 'think'... means to ponder."

Su Miaomiao then started walking again and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about what exactly happened to Lu Yuanqiu during the summer of 2010."

Hearing Zheng Yifeng's words, Su Miaomiao also asked in confusion, "That's true, his English level has been completely transformed in just one summer vacation."

“That’s the most interesting part. As for his personality, I can say that it’s because he met Bai Qingxia during the summer vacation that he has changed.” Zheng Yifeng said, “But I asked Cao Shuang what Lu Yuanqiu did during that summer vacation. Cao Shuang said that Lu Yuanqiu went to internet cafes with him every day without missing a single day, and he never attended any English tutoring classes.”

Su Miaomiao nodded upon hearing this, and then suddenly smiled and said, "I have a guess."

"what?"

"Lu Yuanqiu was chosen by God and possessed. From then on, he changed his bad habits, remained kind, and redeemed all his friends who encountered problems. Because God is a Western god, Lu Yuanqiu's English also improved."

"It's hard to imagine that someone who used to be a teacher would say such a thing." Zheng Yifeng stared blankly at Su Miaomiao.

Su Miaomiao immediately raised her fist and punched Zheng Yifeng in the chest: "What are you saying!"

Zheng Yifeng smiled, took out his phone, and while typing to Lu Yuanqiu, asked Su Miaomiao, "When is the new class teacher coming?"

"It was around the time after the city arts competition," Su Miaomiao said, then leaned closer to Zheng Yifeng's phone: "What did you send to Lu Yuanqiu?"

Zheng Yifeng handed her his phone screen to look at.

Zheng Yifeng: Have you been possessed by God?

Su Miaomiao laughed out loud, and then her phone rang with a "beep beep beep" sound. Lu Yuanqiu had replied to her message.

The two stared blankly at the screen.

Lu Yuanqiu: Idiot.

"Uh... God probably wouldn't say those two words. Shouldn't God just say 'fuck'?"

"Not necessarily. In order to make the possession process professional enough, God may have also specially studied the essence of Chinese culture."

Su Miaomiao responded with unusual certainty. (September 18th, evening)

After returning from the final rehearsal, Lu Yuanqiu took a cold shower in the bathroom. After drying himself off, he lay on the bed, looked up at his phone, and sent a message.

Lu Yuanqiu: If our performance times are close tomorrow, I might not be able to attend your show.

"Drip drip."

Bai Qingxia: It's okay, I'll try my best to see you.

Lu Yuanqiu: You're so kind, Xiaxia.

Bai Qingxia: [Smiling][Smiling]

Lu Yuanqiu: [Kiss][Kiss]

『Late Maple - Student Union Arts Department』: Hey, why don't you two chat privately? [doge emoji]

『Morning Glow - Student Union Arts Department』: Isn't showing off your love a tradition on your campus? [Evil laugh]

Zheng Yifeng: ...

Zhong Jincheng: [Eating melon seeds] [Eating melon seeds]

"Wow, Lu Yuanqiu is really something, showing off his love in the city arts competition group!" Fingel laughed loudly while lying on the bed.

Lu Yuanqiu looked up at the group name, put his phone down, and muttered, "I didn't notice, the group chat was pushed to the top by your chat. I thought it was still my private chat with Bai Qingxia."

"Are you nervous?" Fingel's smile faded, and he lifted his head from the bed.

Lu Yuanqiu looked at the ceiling: "A little."

He rested his head on his arms, enjoying the cool night breeze coming in from the window, and said, "My heart is beating faster for no reason, thumping loudly. I don't know why, but it's definitely not because of the competition."

The Taoist priest and Fingel blinked and pondered for a moment, when the uncle lying on the bed suddenly spoke up: "I've had a similar feeling."

"Oh?" Lu Yuanqiu became interested and turned to look at the uncle: "Tell me more?"

The Taoist priest also looked over curiously.

The middle-aged man held a plastic fan with advertisements printed on it, fanning himself as he spoke:

“When I was 16, I was an apprentice to a carpenter. Once, he took a job for someone and took me to that person’s house to work. My heart was racing the whole way there, even though I had already worked with this master carpenter several times and was very skilled. It was impossible for me to be nervous because of this. When we got to that person’s house, I finally understood why my heart was beating so fast on the way.”

The other three widened their eyes slightly, waiting for the uncle to say something next.

The middle-aged man sat up on the bed with a plastic fan in his hand. He smiled and said, "It turns out that the family had a daughter, and I took a liking to her the moment I saw her."

The Taoist priest joked, "Uncle, have you told Auntie about this?"

The man smiled and replied, his face beaming with happiness: "She's your aunt, and now my wife!"

The Taoist priest and Fingel exchanged a glance, then suddenly exclaimed, "Damn! We've been unexpectedly fed another dose of dog food!"

Lu Yuanqiu didn't speak, but just quietly looked at the uncle sitting on the bed.

At six o'clock the next morning, Lu Yuanqiu washed up early and changed into the third set of clothes for their Yanggu String Orchestra. The upper body was a black short-sleeved shirt with the three words "Yanggu String" printed in colorful letters on the front.
