Saturday.

Lu Yu, carrying his schoolbag, arrived at the shopping mall near Zhou Qianyun's house.

As he walked into McDonald's, he saw his childhood sweetheart sitting by the window.

Today she wore a light blue lace short-sleeved T-shirt, jeans, and white sneakers, with a handbag with a pink fox pendant hanging on it placed next to her.

She had her long legs crossed, and her two white, lotus-like arms resting on the table as she played on her phone.

Her natural flaxen hair was still tied in a ponytail, shimmering in the bright sunlight.

"Will you treat me to breakfast?"

Lu Yu had just put down his bag when a number was called from the food counter, and Zhou Qianyun glanced over.

"Go get it."

Are you really inviting me?

Lu Yu walked towards the food counter, where indifferent and cold words appeared in his field of vision.

Today's number of interactions with Zhou Qianyun has reached the target.

[Current duration: 7 days]

[The boy rode a bamboo horse, playing with green plums around the bed. After a week of continuous interaction with Zhou Qianyun, you understand each other more deeply. Move forward and don't look back.]

[Check-in completion status: Excellent]

[Reward received: 1000 yuan]

The reward will be distributed today, please check your account.

One thousand dollars!

Similar to the final bounty.

Lu Yu only reluctantly went out today because he saw that the system would reward him with a thousand yuan.

They came back carrying plastic plates.

Two hot lattes, a pork and egg McMuffin, a cheese and egg McMuffin, and two hash browns.

Lu Yu didn't check the price, but he estimated it would be enough for him to eat for a week.

"If I need to do my homework, why don't I just go to your house?"

Lu Yu habitually pushed the pork and egg McMuffin to Zhou Qianyun, picked up his coffee, and took a sip.

The water used to wash the pot tasted neither too salty nor too bland.

"No one's home. My grandfather went on a group tour with his chess friends, and my parents have social engagements. They probably won't be back until very late."

Zhou Qianyun bypassed the pork and egg dish that was already in front of her and instead took the custard egg that Lu Yu had already peeled off the outer packaging of.

"..."

Lu Yu was helpless.

Fine, you're the big spender after all, you can eat whatever you want.

He picked up the pork scallion and egg.

"Since no one's here, isn't that perfect?"

"...I don't really want to be home alone with you."

Zhou Qianyun frowned slightly and emphasized it again.

"I just don't want to."

We used to sleep in the same bed together when we were little, so what's there to be afraid of?

"you......"

Just as Lu Yu was about to say something sarcastic, Zhou Qianyun stuffed a potato pancake into his mouth.

"I don't like this, eat it for me."

Ok.

If you think about it, Zhou Qianyun is almost at the end of her period, so it's normal for her emotions to be unpredictable.

This woman is naturally unpredictable, and those few days during her period are even more agonizing.

Lu Yu, who had bought her sanitary napkins in junior high school and carried her home when she couldn't walk anymore, deeply understood the situation.

Lu Yu quickly finished off the pork and egg dish and his hash browns, placed his coffee aside as a drink, and took out his English homework.

Zhou Qianyun messaged Lu Yu last night, asking him to bring his English homework over for tutoring, and also, as Zhou Qianyun said, to discuss his math homework with her.

McDonald's is actually quite crowded on weekends when there are a lot of people with nothing to do.

Lu Yu remembered that when summer vacation was almost over in elementary school, he and Zhou Qianyun would go to McDonald's and KFC, ignoring the resentful looks of the staff who came over to mop the floor again and again, and rush to finish their homework while enjoying the air conditioning.

After Zhou Qianyun's family had enough money to move, they moved to her house to finish their summer homework.

But those summers filled with the aroma of fried chicken and fries seem to be gone forever.

The two of them spent the whole morning doing their homework.

Let's just get our English and math sorted out for now.

It was lunchtime, so we decided to go down to the basement to find something to eat.

"The noodles here are pretty good."

Zhou Qianyun pointed to a Northwest-style noodle shop.

"No, no, no, I don't want to eat noodles again this month."

Lu Yu immediately refused.

He could be a glutton for a short while, but after the effect ended, digestion took a toll on him, and he almost ended up living in the toilet.

"No living expenses? That can't be true."

Zhou Qianyun remembered that once in junior high school, Lu Yu suddenly became obsessed with saving money and ate instant noodles for a month. She could only find excuses to make Lu Yu run errands from time to time and sneak some snacks for him to fill his stomach.

Later, on her birthday, he used his savings to give Zhou Qianyun a fountain pen that she had always wanted, which she still uses to this day.

"No, I ate a lot of noodles last night."

Lu Yu spotted a clay pot rice restaurant.

"I'll go to this one, I'll buy Snow King. Same as always?"

"It has to be hot."

Zhou Qianyun pulled out a chair and called out to Lu Yu.

"Oh~"

Lu Yu responded with a sarcastic tone.

Those few days of the month seem to have arrived.

"Get out of my way!"

Zhou Qianyun punched him from a distance.

Lu Yu went to Mixue Ice Cream to order, and while waiting, his phone vibrated.

【White Dew】:【Image】。

Cheng Bailu posted a picture of a cat.

Judging from the background, it should be an alley behind Walmart, and the cat is obediently squatting on the ground.

[Lu Yu]: The magnificent cat.

Today's number of interactions with Cheng Bailu has reached the target.

[Current duration: 6 days]

Today's check-in was completed voluntarily by Cheng Bailu.

[White Dew]: The stray cat I encountered at the supermarket this morning, doesn't it look a bit like you?

The message from Hakimi, whom I met this morning, is only coming now? Doesn't that seem a bit deliberate?

Lu Yu pondered for a moment and concluded that perhaps he was simply too busy at the time.

[Lu Yu]: How are you similar? I'm clearly much more handsome.

【White Dew】: It looks like the way you breathe out.

This girl has a huge misunderstanding about me. How could I breathe on you?

That said, Lu Yu, who exhales, can be simply called "Breathing Feather," so is he also a kind of Hakimi?

[Bai Lu]: I've decided to name it A Yu.

I'm really going to breathe on it.

"..."

Lu Yu had once heard a saying that if you give a stray cat a name, you are destined to part ways with it; if you just meet it by chance, then there will be no sorrow of parting.

If only life could be like the first time we met.

I hope Ayu can grow up healthy and happy.

[Lu Yu]: Then you'd better treat it well.

[White Dew]: [Video]

Lu Yu clicked on the video.

It's a scene where Cheng Bailu reaches out to stroke the cat's head; it was probably filmed in the morning.

Her fair and slender hand gently stroked the cat's head, followed by her gentle voice.

"Grow up healthy and happy, Ayu."

After dinner, the two went upstairs to pick up the pottery.

The fourth floor was very lively.

It seems like some anime/manga store is having a promotion, attracting a lot of bright-eyed college students. Music is playing, so they're probably playing a rhythm game.

"...I've already wrapped them all up for you."

It was the same aunt from last time. As soon as she saw Lu Yu and Zhou Qianyun, she was reminded of those two incredibly ugly ceramic works.

These ceramic pieces should, in principle, be displayed as examples after they have been fired.

But these two items, if displayed, might deter customers, so they were placed at the very back.

After taking a quick look at their respective ugly pottery works, the two thanked the aunt and left the shop with their paper bags.

The music started again.

In Lu Yu's vision, the indifferent and cold words danced.

[A performance so enchanting that even the gods would be moved came from the heavens. You were drawn to it, having long been on the verge of death, and listened to the indescribable melody. Your sanity was almost gone.]

You've gone into a temporary frenzy.

[Symptom acquired: Frenzied Player (20 minutes)]

What?

Lu Yu was completely bewildered.

But soon, as the music began, Lu Yu was greeted by a dazzling array of colors that did not belong to this world.

With the rhythm, he could glimpse the movement and twisting of those colors, accurately grasping their rhythm.

A strong desire rose from within, a yearning to take control of the chaotic melody.

"Did you see a beautiful woman?"

Seeing that Lu Yu suddenly stopped walking and stared intently at the group of people, Zhou Qianyun teased him with a smile.

Lu Yu remained silent and moved closer.

It turns out that the anime-themed video game store here recently received two new rhythm game arcade machines and is holding a competition.

The grand prize of the competition was a collectible figure that was no longer available. It was supposedly an evil god version or something, and it was extremely ugly.

Lu Yu wasn't interested in the figurine, but he had a feeling about it and used his phone to check the resale price of it.

A little over a thousand.

Good heavens, how could anyone spend over a thousand dollars on this thing?

I really don't understand you anime fans.

but.

More than a thousand yuan.

Lu Yu randomly grabbed a college student with clear eyes.

"Hey bro, can I register for this competition on the spot?"
