Chapter 162 She and She Are Both Fine (Third Update, Please Vote!)

Lu Yuqing.

A name that sounds just like a female protagonist in a novel.

This is the name she typed into her phone after chasing her off the bus, punching her in the arm.

"He's only eighteen, not even eighteen yet? He can't even remember his name overnight, does he have Alzheimer's?"

In the plaza in front of what could be considered a large and spacious shopping mall, Lu Yuqing said sarcastically.

This was indeed Gu Huai's guilty conscience, and it seemed he couldn't refute it.

You can't exactly say you didn't hear it, that you were about to hear it, and then you were forcibly logged off, can you?

"I've been busy lately and have been a bit forgetful. I'm sorry."

"boom."

Gu Huai clutched his arm. "Why did you hit me again?"

Lu Yuqing, wearing a military green trench coat and carrying a shoulder bag, glared at Gu Huai and said, "You should call me 'sister' when you apologize."

Gu Huai sighed silently, "Okay, I'm sorry, Sister Lu."

"That's a good boy~ By the way, did your family come to scold you at school today?"

Gu Huai shook his head. "No, I did well on the exam this time, so I didn't give them a chance to teach me a lesson."

"I see~ It seems like kids this age can be forgiven for anything as long as they get good grades."

Hearing Lu Yuqing say that, Gu Huai couldn't help but laugh, "I also think it's quite unreasonable, isn't it? Grades determine everything."

Lu Yuqing just sighed, "I don't know how to say it. Maybe it's because I'm not a parent myself, and I can't say what my views will be if that day comes in the future. But right now, I think doing what I want to do is the most important thing."

Looking at Lu Yuqing, whose fighting spirit had inexplicably been rekindled, Gu Huai didn't want to use his own experience to negate her efforts; there was no need for that.

She may have thought of reasons to give up a thousand times in private. At times like this, all she needs is support and encouragement.

"Although doing what you want to do seems like a difficult thing, I think you can do it, so keep going."

Lu Yuqing chuckled and reached out to ruffle Gu Huai's hair.

It was only because Gu Huai was tall enough that she had to stand on her tiptoes to do it, which looked somewhat forced and comical.

"You're quite the adult, aren't you? Okay, that's all for now, I'm off to work, see you later!"

"Huh? When did I say I'd see you later?"

Lu Yuqing smiled and backed away, waving her hand as she did so.

"I don't know, but it seems there's something more important right now~ Sorry~"

Why apologize all of a sudden?
And what's with that gloating look? Did something happen?
Gu Huai was puzzled.

Sudden.

"You seem to have quite a few dates. You even have a beautiful girl to meet later."

"."

Gu Huai paused, then turned around hesitantly.

Then I saw a beautiful girl who was as cold as ice.

She was wearing a red and white striped hoodie, underneath which was a pure white T-shirt that revealed a bit of her collarbone.

She wore a pure white pleated mini skirt, covered by a pair of white over-the-knee socks.

There is no more quintessential teenage beauty than her; it seems no one could better embody the meaning represented by this title.

However, the beautiful girl seemed to have a rather unfriendly expression, and Gu Huai almost thought that Cai Yan from the future had also traveled over.

The coldness feels all too familiar.

Gu Huai coughed slightly, his voice dry. "No, she's an older sister who lives near my house. We're not very close, we just happened to run into each other on the bus."

"Really? We're not that close, so I'm touching your head? You went to all that trouble, even standing on tiptoe, just to touch it. Do you want me to hold you and lull you to sleep later? Are you a three-year-old?"

"Putting her to sleep is too much of a stretch. We're not really that close. That's just her personality; she likes to joke around."

More and more like it.

The satirical pattern and the sarcastic tone are so similar!
However, these white over-the-knee socks are a bit lacking; black stockings would have been better.

As Cai Yan listened to Gu Huai's explanation, she noticed that the young man kept glancing under her skirt.

Where are you looking?!

She felt a little embarrassed and annoyed, but couldn't help feeling a little smug.

When she got ready before going out today, she knew that she looked great. As a beautiful and self-aware young woman, she already had her own set of aesthetic standards.

But it seems like he's putting in extra effort today. I knew that idiot couldn't resist.

But that's way too direct and bold! It's hard to pretend you didn't see it.
Gu Huai quickly looked away. "No, I was just curious about why you were wearing white stockings."

What's wrong with white over-the-knee socks?

Cai Yan twisted her waist and looked down at her legs.

Is there a problem? Do they look thick? Or are my legs not straight?

She was completely unaware that the sight of a beautiful girl like herself, dressed like that, swaying her hips in front of Gu Huai was incredibly alluring.

She looks so sweet and soft, it makes you want to rush up and break her waist.

That seems a bit perverted.

Gu Huai smiled and said, "I didn't mean anything bad, I was just curious. Generally speaking, don't white socks make legs look thicker and skin darker? But on you, they don't make your legs look like that at all. On the contrary, they make your legs look long, white, straight, and beautiful."

What girl of this age has ever heard a boy so boldly and directly praise her legs?

Cai Yan's face immediately flushed. "What...what are you saying! Who stares at a girl's legs and says things like that?"

Looking at Cai Yan, who clearly enjoyed these words but acted awkwardly, Gu Huai felt as if there was a crooked stick in front of him.

Gu Huai really wanted to reach out and straighten her up.

"What's there to be embarrassed about? Good is good, beautiful is beautiful, I'm not lying."

"I'm not embarrassed at all!"

Cai Yan glared at Gu Huai, then wondered, why was he so calm? Could it be...?
"Do you often talk to girls like that?"

Gu Huai looked at Cai Yan with a puzzled expression, "Are there girls as pretty as you everywhere?"

"Eh?!"

Have we been outmaneuvered again?

She wanted to question him about whether his life was actually chaotic and whether he was a frivolous and vulgar guy, but he flattered her with his nonchalant words!
The heat in my cheeks continued.

The girl, who seemed to have completely lost her usual composure, had even discarded the aloofness in her demeanor.

What's lost is lost, what's gone is gone.

He took in the other person's reaction, but at this moment, Gu Huai did not show any arrogance. He felt that from an adult's perspective, this kind of girl was easy to manipulate.

That's insincere. People who manipulate others' hearts are the most despicable, especially those scumbags who flirt with others with a playful attitude while being extremely hypocritical.

So he calmed down and started asking about serious matters.

"By the way, are you alone? Where's Lulu?"

Still somewhat agitated and with her heart racing, Cai Yan snapped out of her daze and took out her phone to speak.

I messaged her when I left home, and she said she'd be right there, but I haven't seen it yet. I'll ask her again.

"Don't bother asking in the square, it's too cold. Let's go inside and sit down," Gu Huai said.

Where should we sit?

Cai Yan is unaware that the so-called initiative is in the hands of this young man, and she has become a 'little follower' who only needs to listen to his opinions.

"Let's go with McDonald's, it's free to sit down anyway."

Why not KFC?

"Because I am McMen's."

"KFC is delicious too, okay!"

"The McMill Spicy Chicken Burger is unbeatable; no KFC burger can compare."

"Utter outrageous nonsense, utter rubbish!"

The two bickered as they walked, but still ended up in McDonald's. There were plenty of empty seats, so they randomly found a place to sit down.

The plaza outside was quite noisy and crowded, seemingly hosting some kind of weekend event. As the busiest shopping mall in the city, it had the highest foot traffic of any shopping center in the entire city. If it were deserted on a weekend, one could reasonably suspect that the entire city of Ji was practically deserted.

Gu Huai was waiting for a reply, and also wanted to see what kind of lively activity was taking place in the square—"How could this be!"

"what happened?"

Gu Huai looked at the girl who had suddenly voiced her dissatisfaction.

Cai Yan opened her eyes wide and looked at Gu Huai, saying, "Lulu told me she can't go out, she can't come tonight!"

"Is it so sudden?"

Gu Huai blinked, and Cai Yan was equally puzzled. "Yeah! How can the person who organizes a gathering not be able to come? That's too much!"

Gu Huai looked at Cai Yan with an even stranger expression. "It is indeed excessive. I'm just asking out of curiosity, I don't mean anything by it."

"what?"

Cai Yan looked at the other person with a puzzled expression.

Gu Huai said in a low voice, "You didn't want to meet with me alone and persuaded the other person to back out, did you? Why did you get up? Do you have something to do too?"

"I'll go check if McDonald's kitchen has any knives."

"No way! I was just joking!"

Sure enough, one shouldn't be too unrestrained. Although she's still the 'youthful version' of Cai Yan, her personality is already quite similar.

When I can't stand it, I can become really extreme.

"Hmph, let you talk nonsense. Don't think I can't do anything to you just because we're not at school."

Cai Yan still felt that she had the boy under her control.

Gu Huai looked at the girl who hadn't sat down, "Why aren't you sitting down? Are you really going to take a knife?"

"I'm going to buy a sundae. We can't just sit here and discuss this, can we?"

Gu Huai raised his hand. "Report, I want chocolate flavor."

"Who said I was going to buy it for you! You're just being presumptuous."

The girl tossed her long hair and went to the front desk to place her order.

Gu Huai wasn't in a hurry. He sat leisurely in his seat and waited until Cai Yan returned with two sundaes.

One strawberry, one chocolate.

"Didn't you say you wouldn't order for me?"

Cai Yan snorted coldly, "You have such a foul mouth, I need to shut you up."

Gu Huai thought to himself, "Shutting myself up is easy enough. There are obviously cheaper ways."

His gaze fell on Cai Yan's pink and beautiful lips.

“What are we going to do if she doesn’t come? Why are you looking at me like that?”

Cai Yan looked at the boy who was staring straight at her, completely bewildered.

My heart started racing for no reason.

Just as Lulu said, do seemingly upright boys become dangerous once they leave school?
He was clearly staring straight at me just now.
Gu Huai shook his head and smiled. "It's nothing. What did you just say?"

Cai Yan couldn't help but roll her eyes. "I asked, 'What do we do if Lulu doesn't come?'"

Gu Huai picked up the chocolate sundae and then picked up the spoon next to it.

Before answering, I'll first savor a chocolate sundae that I haven't had in a long time.

I don't know if it's just my imagination, or if people simply feel that older things are better.

He felt that the McMen sundae of that era tasted much better than those of later generations.

After finishing his bite, he looked at the girl in front of him who seemed somewhat troubled.

"Well, there's no other way. Since we're already out, I guess I'll just have to reluctantly go on a date with you."

Cai Yan's eyes widened immediately, and her cheeks turned red.

"Who wants to go on a date with you!"

"You're already out, why don't you go back?"

"I would never wander around outside alone with a boy. I'll go home as soon as I finish eating!"

"Hmm."

Gu Huai nodded casually as he ate his sundae.

"I really will go back!"

Cai Yan bit her lower lip and emphasized again.

"Good good."

I'm serious!

I was about to stomp my feet in frustration.

Gu Huai put down the sundae he had only eaten halfway through, then looked at Cai Yan with a sincere expression.

"It wasn't easy for me to come out like this. It took a lot of effort to convince my family. Now that you've gone back, I don't know who else to ask. Could you please ask the beautiful and kind-hearted Cai Yan to help me get through this difficult time?"

Cai Yan snorted coldly, "That's disgusting. Fine, since I'm beautiful and kind-hearted, I'll reluctantly keep you company for a while. But it won't be long, and it's not really a date!"

"Yes, thank you so much."

"Hmph, don't get too cocky, it won't be long before I finish speaking."

"I can be fast too."

"What do you mean?"

"fine."

The younger version of Cai Yan is so easy to understand; she's youthful and beautiful, and her youthful charm is like that of a green plum.

The mature, sophisticated version of Cai Yan is also quite good, with black stockings and high heels paired with a disdainful look.

All is well, all is well.
