My skill tree increases every day.

"What's wrong? You look terrible." Chen Shuyan took a step closer, wanting to reach out and help Lin Yu up.

Looking at the exquisite and pretty face in front of him, which was exactly the same as in his memory except for the expression, Lin Yu waved his hand and took a half step back.

"It's nothing, just a little low blood sugar." This excuse was extremely clumsy, but he couldn't think of a better one for the moment.

"Although low blood sugar isn't a big deal, it's still something to be careful about. Come on."

Chen Shuyan doesn't usually carry candy with her, but this is a convenience store checkout counter, where there's no shortage of these kinds of small candies.

Chen Shuyan casually picked up a lollipop from the side, tore off the wrapper, and gently held the stick to Lin Yu's lips with her jade-like fingertips.

The concerned, pretty face before me gradually overlapped with the face in my memory.

Lin Yu was a little confused about the situation.

What's going on?

Is that my memory?

Lin Yu held the lollipop, clearly feeling his still intact right hand.

Based on the previous situation, those extra memories are real and can be verified through various methods to prove that they are not figments of one's imagination.

But this time, something completely unprecedented happened.

Did I lose my memory? Did Chen Shuyan and I have such a past?

But since I met Chen Shuyan, she hasn't shown any strange signs at all.

Looking at his healthy hands, Lin Yu dismissed the guess. With current medical technology, it's absolutely impossible to remove the bones from a person's hands and then reattach them completely without leaving a trace.

This isn't a clock! It can be disassembled, maintained, and then reassembled intact.

Is this something that will happen in the future?

Thinking about it that way, it's somewhat possible, after all, memories from the past have appeared before.

So, does Chen Shuyan really like me? And will she...?

no?!

While freedom of religious belief is a fundamental right enjoyed by citizens under the law, you can't do such wicked things, can you?

"Lin Yu, why don't you go back and rest first?" Chen Shuyan said worriedly when she saw that Lin Yu still looked unwell.

"It's alright, you just need to rest. I'll treat you to dinner tonight."

Lin Yu really wanted to leave, escape Chen Shuyan's sight, run far away, and preferably never see her again. But then he thought...

What if those really are memories from the future?

Most works about predicting the future mention this paradox: the future that will happen becomes reality precisely because you foresaw it and wanted to make changes.

Now let's assume that she really has feelings for me, and then I stand Chen Shuyan up today and disappear without a trace, and from then on she can't forget me and holds a grudge.

At last……

Could Chen Shuyan be a yandere?

Don't believe everything you read online; when you actually encounter something like this in real life...

Lin Yu just wants to call the police right now!

"Are you really alright?"

"It's a small problem. Besides, how can you go back on your word?"

Lin Yu ultimately did not leave the convenience store.

He found a stool in a corner, sat down, and slowly licked the orange-flavored lollipop while keeping an eye on Chen Shuyan behind the cashier.

She regained her composure, and the warm afternoon sun cast a soft golden glow on her face.

She looks so quiet and sunny.

What should I do?

Did he just quit his job and run away?

No. Disappearing might upset her prematurely.

Should I directly and clearly reject her?

No. She probably won't care much about my opinion.

Why would you bring a girlfriend over and get angry?

No way! What's the difference between this and suicide?!

The final solution still rests with Chen Shuyan; she has to lose interest in me on her own.

The afternoon felt exceptionally long for Lin Yu. Finally, at six o'clock, it was time for his shift to end. After a brief handover, Lin Yu went to the back lounge to change out of his work clothes and put on his casual clothes.

When she came out, Chen Shuyan had already packed up. She had taken off her dark blue work clothes and was wearing a simple beige knit sweater and jeans, with a canvas bag slung over her shoulder.

The two walked out of the convenience store one after the other. The evening breeze carried a slight chill, and the streets were bustling with people—those leaving get off work or school, those buying groceries, and those taking a stroll. This scene allowed Lin Yu's tense nerves to relax a little.

"You..." The two spoke almost simultaneously.

"You go first," Lin Yu gestured.

Chen Shuyan smiled gently: "What I was trying to say was, are you feeling better now?"

"Much better, really." Lin Yu looked at the crowd on the street, avoiding Chen Shuyan's gaze. "I was probably just a little rushed while working at noon."

"Didn't you say before that you should rest for a while after eating, otherwise it's bad for your health? Remember what you said next time," Chen Shuyan continued, "So what were you trying to say just now?"

"I just wanted to ask if the place is far away."

"It's not far, just two intersections, about a ten-minute walk." She looked at Lin Yu, her tone calm and natural.

"Okay, I'll take you." Lin Yu nodded, pushing the small electric scooter.

"Mmm." Chen Shuyan smoothed her hair and sat sideways in the back seat of Lin Yu's car.

With a lot on his mind, Lin Yu rode very slowly and steadily.

Following Chen Shuyan's instructions, Lin Yu turned into a relatively quiet alley. The street was narrow, lined with some old residential buildings, with various small shops on the ground floor.

The small restaurant that Chen Shuyan mentioned was among them. It had a small storefront, but the glass windows were clean and bright, and you could see a few simple tables and chairs inside, which were almost full of people.

"This is it. Look, business is pretty good, isn't it?" Chen Shuyan said, pushing open the glass door.

A warm aroma of food mingled with the sounds of everyday conversation wafted over. Lin Yu temporarily suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind and followed them inside.

In any case, it's always better to go along with her for now.

"The sweet and sour pork ribs at this restaurant are really good; I order them every time I come! You should try them."

"I'm sorry, I haven't been really into eating things that require spitting out bones lately."

"Ah! Then you can try their boneless chicken feet. The owner makes them himself, and they taste great."

"No, no, no, I can't eat even a little bit of this."

Chen Shuyan pouted slightly, her face seemingly a little stiff.

Lin Yu, what are you doing?! Weren't you supposed to go along with her? Why are you arguing back every time she says something?!

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you had so many dietary restrictions." Chen Shuyan handed the menu to Lin Yu. "You order, since you're treating, you should be the one to order."

"I'm so sorry, I'm a bit of a picky eater. It's kind of you to recommend something to me." Lin Yu clasped his hands together and raised them above his head in a gesture of pleading. "By the way, do you have any dietary restrictions?"

"No, I like everything from this store."

Lin Yu then took the menu and ordered a few home-style dishes that didn't require spitting out bones, while Chen Shuyan ordered two cans of beer.

"Would you like something to drink?" Chen Shuyan pushed the opened beer towards Lin Yu.

"No, I'm going to ride my bike later."

"That's true." Chen Shuyan didn't force anyone to drink; she simply took back the can and took a sip herself.

The two sat facing each other at a small square table, neither of them speaking.

"You..." Chen Shuyan seemed to find the silence a bit strange, so she took another swig of her drink and spoke up, "Are you interested in this?"

"Yes, are you going to tell me?"

Lin Yu vaguely felt that the ornament was the key.

"Actually, there's nothing I can't say. This is a little gift that the lady of the house gave me when I was tutoring."

"Speaking of which, the lady of the house also works at Qingzhou University of Technology. You might even know Lin Yu."

"Is that a teacher? What's your name? Maybe I actually know you."

"Her name is Marry, and it seems she teaches English herself. You know what's most interesting? Maybe because the child grew up in China, she can't speak English, but she can speak our Wu Dong dialect instead."

Teacher Marry? That matches up! That makes perfect sense!

I'll report her when I get back, saying she's promoting a cult, and maybe that'll solve the problem!

Suddenly, Lin Yu discovered the key point.

"No, you're going to teach English to foreigners?"

"No, I teach math."
