fake god
Chapter 22
Lu Ping swears to God—isn’t it a basic courtesy to clean up when a classmate is a guest at home? Of course it’s normal to change the sheets and quilts!But how to say it from my mother, such a natural thing sounds weird...
Shen Yuze glanced at Lu Ping with a smile, readily agreed to Lu's mother's proposal, and expressed interest in going to Lu Ping's room to see.
What can Lu Ping do, he can only hold the large pile of textbooks, and lead Shen Yuze to his bedroom with a sad face.
"Tell me in advance...my room is not big, and the decoration is not luxurious, so don't hold it against me."
The two walked up the creaking stairs to the second floor, and Lu Ping's room was directly opposite the stairs.The door panel is painted with old-fashioned reddish-brown paint, and the door frame is somewhat mottled; there are traces of crayon smears on the bottom of the door panel, and there are more than a dozen princess stickers pasted on it.
Lu Ping exhaled lightly, and solemnly pushed open the door of his room.Obviously, he had to do it several times a day, but for some reason, opening the door in front of Shen Yuze made him feel agitated, as if - he himself "opened" along with it.
In the concept of psychology, the bedroom represents the private domain. Lu Ping's invitation to Shen Yuze to step into his room is, to a certain extent, tantamount to allowing Shen Yuze to enter his world.
Shen Yuze stood outside the door, looking at the small room in front of him with curiosity and solemnity.
Indeed, Lu Ping's room is not big.About ten square meters, the four walls are painted white, and there are some traces of damp on the edge of the roof.On the left hand side of the door is a double bed, an English vocabulary book is buckled on the bedside table, and two mystery novels are hidden underneath.
In front of the window is his desk and bookcase, all neatly tidied up.The arrangement of the books is also very interesting, not according to the subject matter, book size, or author, but according to the color, the red spines are placed with the red spines, and the white spines are placed with the white spines... Looking at it at a glance , each color stands in its own grid in an orderly manner.
In the empty space of the bookcase, there are two family portraits and several assembled Lego blocks.
There is a row of coat hooks nailed in the blank space on the wall, and coats, schoolbags, hats and scarves are neatly hung on them.
A complete map of China is pasted on the sliding wardrobe door. The map outlines the direction of the mountains with watercolor pens, and there are some sticky notes densely pasted next to it, on which are written the key points to be recited.
Everywhere in the room is full of life that a 17-year-old boy should have.The moment he saw the room clearly, a thought came to Shen Yuze's mind: Yes, yes, this is Lu Ping's room, this is the world Lu Ping lives in.
Lu Ping put the textbooks in his arms on the desk with a "hey yo", and the desk was overwhelmed and made a creaking sound.He opened a book casually, was dazzled by the dense English words inside, and quickly closed it again.
Shen Yuze paced in behind him, looking here and there, looking at everything strangely.
He seemed... He had never seen such a small bedroom before.There is no balcony, no private bathroom, and no en-suite study room. This is a square grid, but it is enough to accommodate a person's childhood and youth.
Lu Ping was a little flustered. He looked at Shen Yuze standing in his shabby room, and couldn't help but think of an idiom - "Plants grow brilliance".The teacher explained this word in detail in class. It comes from the third chapter of "Cut Hair for Guests" in the Yuan Dynasty. The original sentence is: "Your feet step on the humble land, and the fluffy plants shine." Your honorable feet stepped into my dilapidated house. , Let my dilapidated house add luster!
But the teacher also said a sentence - "This is a humble room, but my virtue is sweet", although the house is broken, as long as I, the owner, have good morals, the house will not look broken!
Lu Ping silently recited "Humble Room Inscription" twice in his heart to cheer himself up, then straightened his back, and said openly, "Shen Yuze, don't stand still, just sit down!"
Shen Yuze looked down at the small room: "..."
where to sitThere is not even a reception sofa here.
Lu Ping pointed to the bed: "On the bed."
Shen Yuze was silent for a few seconds, and said in a tangled voice: "Are you so active with everyone?"
"what?"
"I just came to your room for the first time, so you invite me to bed?"
Lu Ping's face turned red in an instant: "What, what's going to bed! I asked you to sit on the bed! Sit on the bed!"
Although he is not yet an adult, he understands everything he should understand.Adolescent boys are the most restless. Boys who have a good relationship with each other in the class will always make some messy jokes. Although Lu Ping has never participated in it, he eavesdrops silently and knows what they say about "attack and suffering" and "one zero". "What do you mean by "wash your ass and wait for me on the bed".
It's just that he never thought that Shen Yuze would be so boring!
Shen Yuze saw that his face was blushing, but instead he made further progress: "You said before that I helped you, you should thank me well, how do you plan to thank me, do you want to promise me?"
"Maybe you are big." Lu Ping huffed, walked over and pushed him away from his bed, and sat down on the end of the bed.He just changed a set of bedding yesterday, and the sky-blue plaid sheets were laid out neatly, with the scent of soap powder. "Sit somewhere else if you don't want to sit on the bed."
Shen Yuze couldn't help reminding him: "...Do you know that your words sound very ambiguous?"
Lu Ping: "?" He reacted for several seconds, and after turning his head, the blood on his face rushed to the tips of his ears in an instant, and his earlobes were red as if they were about to bleed, "Shen, Yu, Ze, what's on your mind? Fault!"
He reached out to take the vocabulary book on the bedside table and threw it at him, but for a while he felt unsatisfactory, so he simply replaced it with the mystery novel hidden under it.
The mystery novel in hard leather flew out like a large hidden weapon. Fortunately, Shen Yuze was agile and stopped it accurately without being hurt by him.
Shen Yuze shook the heavy "hidden weapon" in his hand, and asked, "Do you like to read mystery novels?"
This was something that Lu hadn't found out before.
Lu Ping gritted his teeth at him, and said threateningly: "Yes, I like watching the murder case in the secret room the most. For example, in a small room, a certain rich second generation suddenly disappeared, leaving only one innocent person in the room." A terrified witness... After a few days, the smell of meat came from this man's house..."
In order to accentuate the terrifying atmosphere, Lu Ping even made a few exaggerated expressions.As a result, he talked dryly about himself, and Shen Yuze's expression remained unchanged.
Lu Ping felt strange and boring: "...Aren't you afraid?"
Shen Yuze raised his eyebrows: "If you can kill people in secret rooms if you read mystery novels, then why don't you think Harry Potter didn't let you learn magic?"
"..." Yes.
Shen Yuze walked over again and sat down beside Lu Ping.The two sat side by side on the hard plank bed covered with blue checked sheets, and neither of them spoke for a while.
The room was quiet, and the afternoon sun came in through the windows, casting a piece of gold on the ground.Dust danced lightly in the sun, and laughter came in from the open door. It was An An pestering her mother to listen to her tell the story of Queen Elsa.
It was a nice, lazy afternoon.
They stared blankly for a long time, staring at the sunlight on the ground slowly moving from one floor tile to another.
Lu Ping felt that he was about to sink into a long daydream. He asked, "Shen Yuze, are you sleepy? Do you want to sleep for a while?" He turned sideways and patted his big fluffy pillow.
His bed is a 1.5-meter double bed, which is more than enough to sleep two people.But because he was the only one sleeping alone, he put a mess of things on the side of the bed against the wall, including tissues, half-read books, tangled headphone cables, and even his pajamas.
It's pajamas, but it's actually a white T-shirt that has been washed loose. The neckline is a little threadbare, loose and shapeless, and it always slips off when worn, exposing half of the shoulders.
Shen Yuze looked around the T-shirt, then fell back on the face of the person beside him, and said softly, "No need."
Even if you want to sleep, it's not now.
"Let's just chat."
"Chat?" Lu Ping thought, usually enough chatting in school.He racked his brains to find a topic, "Shen Yuze, when you were in the imperial capital, you invited friends to your house as guests, what did you all do?"
"Play games and watch movies." Shen Yuze replied.
The Shen family's villas all have a dedicated audio-visual room and game room, which are enough for them to play.
Games...movies...but there is no game console in Lu Ping's room, let alone a TV.The only electronic device in his house is a battered cell phone.
Lu Ping's toes hidden in the slippers slightly curled up.He began to recite the "Humble Room Inscription" in his heart over and over again.
Suddenly, he thought of something and sat up straight suddenly.He was very close to Shen Yuze at once, and the moment their eyes met, Shen Yuze could even see his own reflection in his bright black eyes.
Lu Ping had a sly smile on his face: "Do you want to ride a horse?"
Shen Yuze: "?"
Seeing the boy's smiling face so close at hand, Shen Yuze's heart skipped a beat for no reason, and he stepped back calmly, avoiding Lu Ping's scorching gaze.He followed his words and said, "Is there a horse farm here?"
"Well, it's definitely not comparable to the racecourses in big cities, but there are indeed places where you can run horses." Lu Ping seemed to be dancing from the corners of his eyes and brows, "Let's go, Prince Charming, I'll take you to the racecourse!"
What?Such a poor country... Cough, there is a horse farm in such a simple place?
Shen Yuze was pulled up by Lu Ping, and followed him out blankly.The bedroom door closed behind them, the blue checked sheets, the soft pillows, the bedside table with the mystery novel on it, the sunlight dancing on the floor tiles... were hidden behind that door again.
This was the first time Shen Yuze stepped into Lu Ping's room, but it definitely wouldn't be the last.
When they went downstairs, the driver and "distant relatives" who were sitting and resting in the living room subconsciously stood up.Mother Lu stopped pouring tea and asked, "Don't you take a nap, where are you going?"
Lu Ping: "I'll take him to ride a horse!"
"Oh, Xiao Shen likes to ride horses, so you can go and have fun." Lu's mother didn't ask more questions, but only told them to pay attention to safety.
This attitude made Shen Yuze even more curious.Originally, he thought that Lu Ping was joking when he said "riding a horse". Shen Yuze had already prepared in his heart that maybe Lu Ping would take him to the children's carousel and deliberately make him look ugly, but judging by Lu's mother's performance, it might be possible... here Is there really a horse farm?
……
Twenty minutes later, Shen Yuze stood by the "horse farm", looking at several horses in the fence that were probably older than him, and fell into deep silence.
"Young man, are you here to travel? Do you want to ride a horse?" The proprietress soliciting business came over and said in Mandarin with a strong accent, "You can ride for 20 minutes for 10 yuan, send a photo, and you can change into ancient costumes over there. Come on." !"
Before Shen Yuze could answer, Lu Ping had already pushed him away and walked up to the proprietress, and began to bargain in fluent Bei'an dialect: "Ah Jia, I'm a local, so don't trick me. My classmate is so handsome, riding a horse with you Just to give you a living sign, you can give me a discount!"
The proprietress is older than Lu Ping's mother, but he has a sweet mouth, and A Jia (sister) Ajia keeps barking, coaxing the proprietress from ear to ear.
In the end, Lu Ping successfully negotiated the price, and the proprietress agreed to only charge them 30 yuan, and the two could ride as long as they wanted.
Shen Yuze looked at the muddy horse field in front of him, looked at the old horses, and didn't know how to describe his current mood: "You mean this by riding?"
"What's wrong?" Lu Ping put his hips on his hips confidently, "Is it a horse? Is this a horse?"
In recent years, North Shore has been working hard to build a tourist town, hoping to attract tourists from surrounding cities.One of the tourist towns is not far from Lu Ping's house. There are farmhouses, mountains and rivers here, and the Lu family has visited here many times.
These horses were originally used by farmers to pull goods. When they were too old to pull, they were sold to the horse farm for "layoff and re-employment".The old horse has a good temper and is not as fierce as the pony. Tourists ride it around and take pictures without any danger.
It is said to be a horse farm, but it is actually just an open space surrounded by fences. The circle is less than 200 meters, and there is a horse stable next to it.This is really the crudest "horse farm" that Young Master Shen has seen so far.
The proprietress brought a horse stool to make it easier for them to get on the horse.
Shen Yuze didn't need it at all. He stood on the left side of the horse, grasped the rein with his left hand, and supported the saddle with his right hand. While pedaling with his left foot, he kicked his right foot on the ground to make a jump—he straddled the horse's back steadily. superior.
He had hired a professional horse trainer to teach him this set of horse riding movements. He has done it countless times. The movements are extremely beautiful, as if flowing clouds and flowing water.
After he got on the horse, he immediately tightened the reins, and the old horse obediently bowed its head and accepted the bit without any resistance.Shen Yuze turned to look at Lu Ping with a three-point show. He thought he would see Lu Ping's adoring face, but found... Lu Ping was already sitting on the horseback one step ahead of him!
Lu Ping was riding a maroon horse with long braids on the sideburns.He gently rubbed the horse's mane, and the horse's ears moved and snorted.
Shen Yuze: "Can you ride a horse?"
Lu Ping giggled like a goose: "Man, you don't know how many surprises I have left!"
Shen Yuze: "..."
Lu Ping: "My grandfather's family is in the country, and he has horses, but I haven't ridden for a long time."
Although Lu Ping claimed that he hadn't ridden for a long time, his movements were not unfamiliar. He held the rein and flicked it twice, and the horse slowly picked up speed and began to trot.
Seeing Lu Ping running farther and farther, Shen Yuze urged the horse to catch up, but for some reason, the old horse he was riding was still strolling leisurely, no matter how much he gave instructions, the horse refused to speed up.
Shen Yuze: "???"
It wasn't until Lu Ping's horse trotted around the field and returned to Shen Yuze's side that he told him the answer: "Our horses here can't understand Mandarin."
Shen Yuze: "..."
……
They played at the racecourse all afternoon, until the sun was almost setting, and they decided to go home.
When he was about to leave, he was stopped by the lady boss.
The proprietress said, "Handsome guy, let me take a photo for you!" She pointed to the publicity board behind her, on which were posted photos of many guests visiting the racecourse, as well as guest comments in various handwritings.
"Huh?" When Lu Ping heard that he was going to take a photo, he didn't know where to put his hands and feet, "Take a photo, take a photo?"
He's plain looking, not a photogenic guy at all, and he can't remember how long it's been since he's had a photo taken.Every time he took a group photo with someone, he always made a foolish gesture of scissors. He did this when he was seven years old, and he still did it when he was 17. Maybe when he was 27, he would still only know this pose.
He knew in his heart that the proprietress actually wanted to photograph him, she obviously wanted to photograph Shen Yuze.A refreshing and handsome boy is riding a horse. If such a photo is posted, it will definitely attract many customers.
But based on his understanding of Shen Yuze, Shen Yuze is definitely not willing to be treated as a free advertisement...
"—Okay." Shen Yuze said, with a natural tone as if he was discussing today's weather, "Where to shoot?"
Lu Ping: "???"
The proprietress beamed with joy: "Just shoot in the racecourse!" She enthusiastically planned the action, "You two stand next to the horse, stand closer...closer!"
Lu Ping stood in front of the horse with Shen Yuze in a daze, holding the rein in his hand, with a stiff smile on his face.Originally, there was about half an arm's distance between him and Shen Yuze, but under the command of the proprietress, they got closer and closer, so close that they were shoulder to shoulder.
Even so, the proprietress is still not satisfied.
"Smile, handsome boy, you should smile more happily!"
Lu Ping squeezed out a blunt smile while quietly turning his head to peek at Shen Yuze's expression.As he expected, Shen Yuze's expression was indifferent, and his eyes were staring straight ahead, without a trace of a smile on his face.
...It's really strange, if Shen Yuze doesn't like taking pictures, why would he agree to such a troublesome thing?
At this moment, the flash lights suddenly turned on.
Lu Ping was taken aback. He quickly turned his head to look at the proprietress who was holding the camera, and said with some complaints, "Ah Jia, can you count three two one before taking a picture?"
The proprietress said: "Okay, okay, then take another picture, and you should get closer to this one! Three—"
Lu Ping thought: "It's almost posted, how can I get closer."
"two--"
Lu Ping: "I knew it would be so troublesome, I really shouldn't have taken a group photo."
"one--"
At the moment "one" sounded, Shen Yuze suddenly raised his arm unexpectedly.
The boy's palm was hot, and he gently but irresistibly embraced the shoulder of the boy beside him; at the same time, the elegant fragrance permeating from his clothes instantly overwhelmed the boy's senses.
Flashes flickered, freezing this rare and intimate scene.
Lu Ping couldn't control so much anymore, his brain was on the verge of crashing, and before it crashed, the screen was full of repeating the same sentence: Shen Yuze smells so sweet, Shen Yuze smells so sweet, Shen Yuze smells so fragrant, Shen Yuze smells so fragrant...
Shen Yuze glanced at Lu Ping with a smile, readily agreed to Lu's mother's proposal, and expressed interest in going to Lu Ping's room to see.
What can Lu Ping do, he can only hold the large pile of textbooks, and lead Shen Yuze to his bedroom with a sad face.
"Tell me in advance...my room is not big, and the decoration is not luxurious, so don't hold it against me."
The two walked up the creaking stairs to the second floor, and Lu Ping's room was directly opposite the stairs.The door panel is painted with old-fashioned reddish-brown paint, and the door frame is somewhat mottled; there are traces of crayon smears on the bottom of the door panel, and there are more than a dozen princess stickers pasted on it.
Lu Ping exhaled lightly, and solemnly pushed open the door of his room.Obviously, he had to do it several times a day, but for some reason, opening the door in front of Shen Yuze made him feel agitated, as if - he himself "opened" along with it.

The proprietress is older than Lu Ping's mother, but he has a sweet mouth, and A Jia (sister) Ajia keeps barking, coaxing the proprietress from ear to ear.

Lu Ping was riding a maroon horse with long braids on the sideburns.He gently rubbed the horse's mane, and the horse's ears moved and snorted.
Shen Yuze: "Can you ride a horse?"
Lu Ping giggled like a goose: "Man, you don't know how many surprises I have left!"
Shen Yuze: "..."
Lu Ping: "My grandfather's family is in the country, and he has horses, but I haven't ridden for a long time."
Although Lu Ping claimed that he hadn't ridden for a long time, his movements were not unfamiliar. He held the rein and flicked it twice, and the horse slowly picked up speed and began to trot.
Seeing Lu Ping running farther and farther, Shen Yuze urged the horse to catch up, but for some reason, the old horse he was riding was still strolling leisurely, no matter how much he gave instructions, the horse refused to speed up.
Shen Yuze: "???"
It wasn't until Lu Ping's horse trotted around the field and returned to Shen Yuze's side that he told him the answer: "Our horses here can't understand Mandarin."
Shen Yuze: "..."
……
They played at the racecourse all afternoon, until the sun was almost setting, and they decided to go home.
When he was about to leave, he was stopped by the lady boss.
The proprietress said, "Handsome guy, let me take a photo for you!" She pointed to the publicity board behind her, on which were posted photos of many guests visiting the racecourse, as well as guest comments in various handwritings.
"Huh?" When Lu Ping heard that he was going to take a photo, he didn't know where to put his hands and feet, "Take a photo, take a photo?"
He's plain looking, not a photogenic guy at all, and he can't remember how long it's been since he's had a photo taken.Every time he took a group photo with someone, he always made a foolish gesture of scissors. He did this when he was seven years old, and he still did it when he was 17. Maybe when he was 27, he would still only know this pose.
He knew in his heart that the proprietress actually wanted to photograph him, she obviously wanted to photograph Shen Yuze.A refreshing and handsome boy is riding a horse. If such a photo is posted, it will definitely attract many customers.
But based on his understanding of Shen Yuze, Shen Yuze is definitely not willing to be treated as a free advertisement...
"—Okay." Shen Yuze said, with a natural tone as if he was discussing today's weather, "Where to shoot?"
Lu Ping: "???"
The proprietress beamed with joy: "Just shoot in the racecourse!" She enthusiastically planned the action, "You two stand next to the horse, stand closer...closer!"
Lu Ping stood in front of the horse with Shen Yuze in a daze, holding the rein in his hand, with a stiff smile on his face.Originally, there was about half an arm's distance between him and Shen Yuze, but under the command of the proprietress, they got closer and closer, so close that they were shoulder to shoulder.
Even so, the proprietress is still not satisfied.
"Smile, handsome boy, you should smile more happily!"
Lu Ping squeezed out a blunt smile while quietly turning his head to peek at Shen Yuze's expression.As he expected, Shen Yuze's expression was indifferent, and his eyes were staring straight ahead, without a trace of a smile on his face.
...It's really strange, if Shen Yuze doesn't like taking pictures, why would he agree to such a troublesome thing?
At this moment, the flash lights suddenly turned on.
Lu Ping was taken aback. He quickly turned his head to look at the proprietress who was holding the camera, and said with some complaints, "Ah Jia, can you count three two one before taking a picture?"
The proprietress said: "Okay, okay, then take another picture, and you should get closer to this one! Three—"
Lu Ping thought: "It's almost posted, how can I get closer."
"two--"
Lu Ping: "I knew it would be so troublesome, I really shouldn't have taken a group photo."
"one--"
At the moment "one" sounded, Shen Yuze suddenly raised his arm unexpectedly.
The boy's palm was hot, and he gently but irresistibly embraced the shoulder of the boy beside him; at the same time, the elegant fragrance permeating from his clothes instantly overwhelmed the boy's senses.
Flashes flickered, freezing this rare and intimate scene.
Lu Ping couldn't control so much anymore, his brain was on the verge of crashing, and before it crashed, the screen was full of repeating the same sentence: Shen Yuze smells so sweet, Shen Yuze smells so sweet, Shen Yuze smells so fragrant, Shen Yuze smells so fragrant...
