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

Chapter 826 He must have sworn an oath in his heart.
Looking back on the National Day holiday in 2010, Lu Yuanqiu remembered that he spent it with Bai Qingxia at an amusement park, and he also remembered the question Bai Qingxia asked him on the Ferris wheel.

"Lu Yuanqiu, will you always be here?"

It's quite strange. During the National Day holiday this year, they were all busy in the company's workshop, so busy that they even forgot to eat several times. But Lu Yuanqiu still remembered this sentence in the midst of his busy schedule.

In the locker room, he took off his sterile suit, opened a bottle of mineral water and took a sip. After drinking, he turned his head to look at Bai Qingxia, who had also just taken off her sterile suit and was cooling off in the air conditioner.

"On call."

Lu Yuanqiu suddenly uttered four words, then without any explanation, simply looked at her with a smile.

The girl turned her head and looked over. The air conditioner made her hair bounce. She stared at Lu Yuanqiu for a moment, her eyes thoughtful. The next moment, she looked at Lu Yuanqiu again and couldn't help but smile.

Lu Yuanqiu smiled and turned his head back. Bai Qingxia's memory was indeed reassuring. He tilted his head back and took another gulp of mineral water. Bai Qingxia lowered her head shyly, her arms wrapped around her legs, which were still covered by a white sterile suit.

She looked at her shoes, which were now joined together, and silently reviewed the past three years in her mind.

The clearest memories I have are of all the little things I did with Lu Yuanqiu.

The air conditioner was still blowing overhead. Suddenly, Lu Yuanqiu put down the mineral water bottle and slightly raised his eyes.

“It’s temperature,” he said, looking straight ahead.

Bai Qingxia: "Hmm?"

Lu Yuanqiu turned to look at her: "The air conditioning has been on in the workshop the whole time, and the temperature is too low. You may not realize it, but every time you make sauces, you're basically in a stuffy, enclosed space. I think the temperature might be the reason why the sauces you've been making these days haven't tasted quite right."

"It doesn't necessarily need to be very hot, but it definitely can't be cold."

Bai Qingxia probably didn't even realize that she only knew how she made that flavor, that she had the correct steps, but she ignored the objective reasons brought about by environmental factors.

Lu Yuanqiu: "Do you think it's likely I'm talking about something?"

"If I had to say, the sauces I make in the four seasons do taste different. Ordinary people can't tell the difference, but I can," Bai Qingxia replied thoughtfully.

Lu Yuanqiu: "Which season produces the best flavor?"

Bai Qingxia thought for a moment and replied, "Xia".

Lu Yuanqiu laughed.

"Okay, Xiaxia."

He downed the bottled water in one gulp, walked over to Bai Qingxia, and kissed her on the lips. Bai Qingxia's adorable gaze followed his movement as she looked up and saw Lu Yuanqiu walk to the door.

Lu Yuanqiu: "I'll go talk to someone and ask them to rework these machines and add a temperature control device."

Actually, even if the sauces we've made these past few days taste bad, they're still better than the original "White Rhino Classic." But since we're in the testing phase, Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia both believe we should push things to the extreme, at least to the point where Bai Qingxia herself can't find any flaws.

Both Bai Xi and the Lu family are currently waiting for Xia Yiwan Noodles to officially launch, so they are under a lot of pressure.

……

Didn't he go back for National Day?

"Yes, he didn't go home this time. You two haven't spoken for a week? Really? I haven't heard Cao Shuang mention this."

"Really, he doesn't reply to messages or answer phone calls."

"Then why didn't you tell me?"

“You and Sister Xia are busy... and I was in the wrong, so I’m ashamed to say it.”

"Don't say that. Actually, I do know some things. It's not your fault."

"Brother Qiu, do you know? Did Brother Shuang tell you?! What else did Brother Shuang tell you?"

"I only mentioned this matter, but you should understand Cao Shuang's personality. He's trying to improve himself, and the more he cares about you, the higher his standards will be for himself." "I know Brother Shuang likes me."

"how about you?"

"I like him too... it's romantic love."

Lu Yuanqiu remained silent for a moment on the other end of the phone.

"Yueyue, you should tell him."

“I’m right here at the entrance of the university. I’m going to find him and tell him, otherwise I’ll keep feeling miserable.”

"If he's not going back for National Day, he should be at the shop. Go quickly."

"Okay, Brother Qiu, I'll hang up now."

"Ah."

In the back seat of the Rolls-Royce, Lu Yuanqiu put down his phone. Today is October 5th, and they are on their way to attend an engagement banquet. He had just received a call from Ruan Yueru five minutes ago.

“These two are finally going to take this step.” Lu Yuanqiu breathed a sigh of relief at Bai Qingxia. He then found Cao Shuang’s chat interface: “I’ll tell Cao Shuang that he has been waiting for this moment for a long time.”

Bai Qingxia looked at him, hesitant to speak.

At Zhucheng Polytechnic, Ruan Yueru followed the same route as last time and headed straight for Xia Yiwan Noodles. After seeing the four characters on the signboard in the distance, she took a deep breath and ran into the shop.

It wasn't noon yet, and it was a holiday, so there were no customers in the store. Ruan Yueru scanned the store but didn't see Cao Shuang. However, there was a mop next to the counter, and a bucket of dirty water next to the mop. The mop was currently seeping water on the floor, as if it had just been thrown there.

In the car, Bai Qingxia said to Lu Yuanqiu, "Cao Shuang probably won't see Ruan Yueru."

Lu Yuanqiu looked at her: "Why?"

Bai Qingxia lowered her head: "I understand Cao Shuang's feelings. They're not the only ones who know they like each other but can't be together openly."

Lu Yuanqiu silently put his phone down.

Inside the shop, Ruan Yueru touched the broom next to the counter and looked up towards the kitchen.

The door over there was tightly closed.

She shouted, "Brother Shuang, I know you're here!"

Upon hearing this, Ruan Yueru was overwhelmed with emotion. Wiping away her tears, she sobbed, "I'm sorry, I was so stupid, so foolish, so stubborn before. I didn't understand what love was, and I didn't understand your love..."

Inside the door, Cao Shuang sat on the ground, listening intently to the sounds outside, tears silently streaming from the corners of his eyes.

Ruan Yueru: "Now I know, I like you too!"

"Can you please stop listening to your parents! You like me, and I like you, what does it have to do with them?!"

Ruan Yueru shouted with all her might.

Cao Shuang remained stubbornly motionless, his gaze fixed on the dimly lit kitchen space. A tear slid down to the tip of his nose, lingered for a moment, and then dripped onto his worn-out shoe with chipped paint.

Cao Shuang raised her hand to wipe her nose, took a deep sniff, blinked her moist eyes, and kept her ear pressed against the door, listening intently to the sounds outside.

……

"Ruan Yueru doesn't care, but Cao Shuang does. His affection is too self-conscious and too serious. He will definitely make himself worthy of Ruan Yueru. He must have made such a vow in his heart. I also believe that he will do it."

Bai Qingxia sat in her seat and muttered softly, then looked at Lu Yuanqiu.
