Chapter 63: Lin Miaomiao, a 30-watt Bulb

Chen Lu spat at Jiang Chao, who was leaning against the wall smoking, “I knew you were watching.”

Jiang Chao turned his head, blew a smoke ring to the side, shrugged, and said with a grin, “After all, this is the prettiest girl in our school, begging someone in a low voice, wouldn’t it be a pity not to watch?”

“If this gets out, I don’t know how many people will be heartbroken. Their dream goddess, here, crying and begging you not to leave her, tsk tsk tsk.”

Chen Lu couldn’t be bothered to argue, glanced at him, and said speechlessly, “Damn, the enemy is within.”

“What do you mean?” Jiang Chao obviously didn’t understand.

“As long as you’re with me, my movements are transparent,” Chen Lu said as he went upstairs, “You’re a goddamn spy for Liu Yan, even if you’re unintentionally revealing it.”

Jiang Chao recalled his chat history with Liu Yan while they were eating out and realized he couldn’t refute, so he could only follow Chen Lu up the stairs, feeling guilty.

This woman is too bad.

“She’s been poured cold water on twice in your face, and she still hasn’t given up. I almost don’t recognize her anymore.” Jiang Chao sighed.

“Anyway, I’m not hanging out with her,” Chen Lu said with a tone of helplessness, “I’ve already rejected her decisively enough. Her dad and my dad are so close, I can’t make it too ugly.”

“So I have no other way, anyway, she won’t keep doing this, at most she’ll try a few more times and give up.”

“Next time she comes over, just pretend you don’t see her, let her feed the mosquitoes if she wants to…”

Jiang Chao couldn’t help but ask, “Don’t you feel bad? You’ve known each other since you were little, and you’ve liked her for so many years.”

He doesn’t have this kind of experience, so he can’t empathize. But even though Chen Lu rejected her decisively, he could still see that Chen Lu was in a bad mood.

“Of course I feel bad.” Chen Lu didn’t bother to be stubborn.

Then he turned his head, looking down at Jiang Chao from a few steps above, “But, is my discomfort a reason for me to turn back?”

Jiang Chao was stunned. Whether it was Mo Yuqing or Chen Lu, they suddenly became incredibly unfamiliar to him in this aspect.

The person who once pursued with all their heart, now has an attitude as cold as an iceberg.

And the one who was pursued like the bright moon in the sky, now has become infatuated.

Infatuated to the point of being shocking.

Sometimes love is a strange thing, it’s all about mutual torment.

“I think your idea is right, it’s better for both of you to let her give up early and live your own lives peacefully,” Jiang Chao nodded in agreement, “You’ll be strangers then, no need to hurt her anymore, Mo Yuqing is different from Qin Wenxi after all.”

When Li Sinian finally realizes it one day, Qin Wenxi won’t care, it’s just one less fish in her pond for her.

Jiang Chao thought to himself.

This is the difference between the two, one has feelings but doesn’t respond, the other doesn’t have any at all.

Chen Lu “hummed’’, not refuting.

Whose youth hasn’t had regrets?

……

The next afternoon, in a pavilion on campus.

Chen Lu was resting his chin, looking at the laptop in front of him with boredom. Liang Zhirou sat opposite him very obediently, bowing her head to memorize English words.

He was looking at the participating teams and games of the annual Gigabit Future Game Production Contest, carefully summarizing their common points.

This is more suitable for him to participate in than GWB, which requires a finished game.

Because after passing the initial screening, you only need to make a game with a decent idea within 48 hours.

Such a substandard product made in such a short time, except for the idea, nothing else can be shown. Their disadvantage as newcomers will be compensated for a lot.

Just get a random ranking, it’s just to apply for funding from the school.

Chen Lu kept scrolling with his mouse, muttering softly, “Coding is easy, but art is also a problem.”

Sure enough, nothing is easy.

But many judges are well-known game UP masters or streamers, so he can go ask for autographs, like that one-meter-six monkey.

Thinking about it, Chen Lu sighed deeply again.

Take your time, everything is difficult at the beginning.

“What’s wrong?”

Liang Zhirou heard Chen Lu sigh and looked up with some concern.

“A little agitated.” Chen Lu stretched, his gaze falling on the girl with a pure face in front of him.

“Are you feeling unwell recently?”

The girl shook her head, “No…”

“That’s good, if you get yourself into the hospital again, you’ll see how I bully you.” Chen Lu said unkindly.

Liang Zhirou still felt ashamed when she thought about being fed by Chen Lu in the hospital, she quickly waved her hand, “No more, really no more!”

As she was recalling this, Chen Lu suddenly took out a fruit candy from his pocket.

Ever since Liang Zhirou fainted once because of low blood sugar, Chen Lu always carried these with him.

He looked at the computer screen, peeling the candy wrapper with one hand, and finally handed it to the girl.

“Open your mouth, ah~”

Liang Zhirou closed her mouth tightly, her face flushed.

“I, I’ll do it myself.” Liang Zhirou was about to take it with her hand, but Chen Lu pulled his hand back.

His expression became very serious, “Do you dislike me?”

“I don’t dislike you.” Liang Zhirou said aggrievedly.

“Then why won’t you eat?”

“Because…”

Before she could finish, Chen Lu handed the candy to her again.

“Hurry up, if you dawdle any longer, be careful if others see you.”

“You’ve already used this trick once.” Liang Zhirou scoffed, I’m getting smarter too, you know.

I can’t possibly fall for the same trick twice.

Seeing Chen Lu’s serious face, she still put away her smugness in her heart, opened her small mouth with a grievance, and after hesitating for a long time, she still put the candy in her mouth.

“I shouldn’t have come!”

Chen Lu followed the sound and saw Lin Miaomiao looking at him and Liang Zhirou with gritted teeth.

When she turned her head back, Liang Zhirou had already completely collapsed on the stone table, burying her face in her arms, pretending to be an ostrich.

Only her red ears were exposed.

Chen Lu blinked in confusion.

Good heavens…

Can you be any cuter?

“I told you to hurry up, be careful if others see you,” Chen Lu said softly, looking at Lin Miaomiao who was walking towards them, “Look, I told you so.

Remember to be quick next time, it’s embarrassing if others find out.”

Liang Zhirou nodded repeatedly while lying down, not realizing anything was wrong with Chen Lu’s words.

“I shouldn’t have asked where you two were!” Lin Miaomiao sat next to Liang Zhirou, “Why did I come here to eat lemons, wouldn’t it be better to watch anime in the dorm?”

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She was becoming more and more miserable as a light bulb.

The main reason is that these two are getting more and more excessive. Before, they would just look at each other in front of her, but now they’re even feeding each other.

Shameless!!

After a while, Liang Zhirou finally sat up straight, allowing Lin Miaomiao to hold her hand and show off in front of Chen Lu.

Chen Lu looked at Lin Miaomiao with indifference, thinking to himself, how long can you be smug.

“Why are your dark circles so bad? Is Mr. Chen really going to start a business?” Lin Miaomiao suddenly said.

She didn’t know why, if it was other boys in her class who told her they were going to start a business, she would probably just listen to it as a joke.

But when Chen Lu said it, she always felt like Chen Lu could really do it.

“Yeah, I’m so tired.”

Chen Lu looked at Liang Zhirou pitifully and asked softly,

“So, can you hug me?”
