fake god
Chapter 56
Lu Ping looked at the avatar of @fake-diamond on the phone, and his finger hovered over the pin button, wondering if he should press it or not.
The partner has the function of canceling the account. As long as the application for canceling the account is submitted, all traces of this account will disappear on the Internet within ten working days.
Just like the original @wonderland.
Wonderland... Lu Ping thought of the name in his heart, wonderland, Dreamland... Speaking of which, it also has the word "Lu".
Is this some kind of divine will that links Lu Ping and Shen Yuze together?
Lu Ping remembered that there was another reason why he registered this account at the beginning, and it was to commemorate the sudden disappearance of @wonderland.Before that, checking @wonderland every day became the only support in Lu Ping's lonely life.
If now @fake-diamond disappears without saying a word, will the fans who follow him feel lost too?Did he feel abandoned like he did back then?
His fans are all about his age, some of them are like clocking in and asking him good morning and good night; some use private messages as a diary to record a day’s life; Complain about all kinds of troubles in life and study.
Behind those accounts, there are lively people and smiling faces.They followed him, and while they watched him share his life, they also opened up theirs to him.
Lu Ping is a soft-hearted person.
He couldn't say "goodbye" to so many people at the same time.
Just as Lu Ping hesitated, suddenly, a familiar voice sounded beside him.
"—Pingping, why are you hiding here?"
It's Shen Yuze!
Lu Ping was taken aback, turned off the screen of the phone in a panic, and hid it in the palm of his hand to hide it.
He kept squatting, looked up at the tall boy beside him, and asked nervously, "You, when did you come?"
I hope Shen Yuze didn't see his phone screen.
Hearing his question, Shen Yuze raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked unhappily: "I won the championship, what was the first sentence you said when you saw me?"
The young man raised the heavy crystal trophy in his hand, with an expression of "If you don't say something nice, I won't show you the trophy".
Lu Ping muttered: "It's great to be a champion. You can engrave your trophy with a 30-yuan wallet, and you can engrave any words you want."
Shen Yuze laughed angrily: just now someone was still sighing in the text message, as if he would regret his whole life if he couldn't touch the trophy, why is he playing his temper again now?Shen Yuze made a gesture to put away the trophy: "Forget it if you don't want it, I'll take it to the recycling station and ask if it can be sold for three or five yuan."
Lu Ping hurriedly said: "Who said no? I want it! I want it!"
Shen Yuze: "If you want, come here and get it yourself." He raised his chin at Lu Ping and teased him, "Also, what kind of look do you have? Instead of being a little mouse, you are now a little penguin?"
The school uniform of No. [-] Middle School is blue and white. The two pieces of fabric on the left and right of the zipper of the jacket are pure white, and only the sleeves are blue.In order to keep warm, Lu Ping specially covered his whole body with clothes when squatting down, and retracted his legs. Looking at it this way, he really looked like a waddling blue and white fat penguin.
Lu Ping complained: "It's obvious that you lingered for a long time and couldn't come out. I was so cold that I could only squat here and be a penguin."
"Okay, little penguin." Shen Yuze coaxed him, "Look, the audience is gone, so hurry up and get up."
"..." Lu Ping remained silent and did not speak.Only the tips of the ears slowly turned red.
"what happened?"
"..." Lu Ping lowered his head and muttered something in a low voice.
"Huh?" Shen Yuze didn't hear clearly, so he took another step closer to Lu Ping's direction, bent down, and heard what he said clearly.
What Lu Ping said was—"My legs are numb and I can't stand up."
Shen Yuze knew that if he laughed out loud, Lu Ping would definitely be angry, but there was no way, how could his Pingping be so cute?A few minutes ago, Shen Yuze had exhausted all his good mood because of Wang Shiya's appearance, but Lu Ping was like a gust of fresh wind, blowing away the dark clouds in Shen Yuze's heart.
Shen Yuze tried his best to hold back his laughter, and stretched out his hand to Lu Ping: "I'll pull you up."
Lu Ping blushed, reluctantly stretched out his hand, and gently put it into Shen Yuze's palm.
Shen Yuze clenched his hand tightly, and with a sudden force, the next second, Lu Ping only felt his body lighten, and he was pulled up by Shen Yuze, and his feet staggered into Shen Yuze's arms.
The boy's legs were numb, and he couldn't stand up on his own. He could only lean on Shen Yuze's shoulders and put all his weight on Shen Yuze.
He felt that he was so stupid, his ears were hot, and he wanted to speak hard: "I'm not unstoppable, I'm... um, I'm happy for you, I want to hug you, congratulations. This is a celebration among friends hug!"
Shen Yuze said: "Really? I don't believe it."
"..."
"You are clearly throwing yourself into your arms."
"Shen! Yu! Ze!" Lu Ping was furious, "When my feet stop numb, let's see how I can deal with you!"
The two were chattering away, when suddenly there was a movement from the auditorium door behind them, as if someone was about to come out again.
How could Lu Ping have the nerve to let others see his stupid appearance, struggling to stand alone, but his legs were still numb, and he waved his hands exaggeratedly in the air for a while, and finally lost his balance and plunged into the ground. Into Shen Yuze's arms.
Lu Ping: "..."
Shen Yuze: "Oh."
Appeared!A necessary "heh" for a domineering school grass!
Lu Ping was extremely ashamed: "Are you thinking in your heart: Man, you say no, but your body is still very honest."
"How could it be?" Shen Yuze comforted him: "I'm still young, not so greasy."
Lu Ping: "..."
What kind of consolation is that.
At this moment, the door of the auditorium behind them opened, and a girl in formal attire appeared behind them.
She was not a stranger—it was the female contestant from the Experimental Middle School.
When she saw Shen Yuze hugging a boy in No. [-] Middle School uniform in her arms, a meaningful expression appeared on her face.It's a pity that from her perspective, she couldn't see what the boy looked like.
The female contestant asked: "Huh? ↗"
Shen Yuze nodded lightly: "Yes. ↘"
Female contestant: "Oh~"
Lu Ping: "???"
Wait, what are they saying "Huh?" They obviously only said one word, but Lu Ping could detect some strange meaning from their tones of twists and turns.
The female contestant reminded them: "There are other people who haven't come out from behind, please pay attention."
This is the difference at home and abroad. When she went to school in the UK, there were classmates who showed mutual affection in elementary school, and there were many pairs in high school. Whether it was a same-sex couple or a heterosexual couple, it was not uncommon.It's a pity that everything in China focuses on learning, and parents will be invited to hold a small hand.
After she left, Lu Ping raised his head suspiciously: "Shen Yuze, what charades were you playing just now?"
Shen Yuze replied calmly: "How can there be any charades? She is just reminding us that it is getting late, and we must leave the Experimental Middle School as soon as possible."
"...Is that really the case?"
"if not?"
Lu Ping: "..." He thought about it carefully, and it seemed that he could explain it.
Counting Liao, Shen Yuze should not have lied.After all, Shen Yuze just described himself as a confidant on the podium with so many people, so Shen Yuze would not lie to him.
Of the two of them, it is obvious that he is the liar with evil intentions.
……
To celebrate Shen Yuze's winning No.1, Lu Ping was the host and invited Shen Yuze to dinner.
Of course, for the cash-strapped Lu Ping, serious restaurants are beyond his reach, so he can only bring Shen Yuze to try some snacks.
Lu Ping: "You just said on stage that it's the first time you went to our North Shore Fair, and you haven't eaten many snacks. In fact, there are also many delicious ones on the South Shore. If I remember correctly, there is one near the Experimental Middle School."
Lu Ping directed the driver to come to the alley. Fortunately, Lu Ping had a good memory, and he did not remember wrongly such a winding path.
The car stopped on the side of the road, and Shen Yuze got out of the car behind Lu Ping, looking at the restaurant.
To say it is a "restaurant" is really flattering this small shop, which at best can only be regarded as a stall facing the street. The boss put all the tables, chairs and benches outside, and even occupied the sidewalk.But there are no such rules in this kind of place, they are all neighbors in the neighborhood, even if the city management comes, they won't say much.
Looking at the environment of the store, this store should be quite old.The people who come and go are the nearby residents.The sign above the head is printed with photos of all kinds of delicious food, and in the center is a few large characters: "Secretly made sweet and sour fried cake"
This is something that Shen Yuze, a northerner, has never heard of.
The owner of the store is a middle-aged couple with a simple appearance.There are sleeves over the thin sweaters and an oily apron.
There was a hot oil pan in front of my husband, and all kinds of fried skewers were rolling in the oil pan. With such hot oil, those fried skewers would be cooked in a short while and floated up. Oil, put it on the iron plate in front of the wife.
It was a hot iron plate, and the deep-fried vegetables, meatballs, and rice cakes were removed from the skewers one by one, added with vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, and salt, and rolled several times on the hot iron plate, occupying the entire body. It is full of spices, and when it comes out of the pan, add some pepper powder according to personal taste... In this way, a sweet and sour fried cake with sweet and sour taste is ready.
The proprietress called: "No. 8! No. 8!"
Immediately, a young man hurriedly stood up from the dining table, handed the signboard in his hand to the proprietress, and took away his share of fried cakes.
Shen Yuze understood: the so-called sweet and sour fried cakes are fried vegetables and meat mixed with rice cakes.
In the refrigerator next to it, there are dozens of small baskets, each containing different ingredients.
"What dish do you want to eat? Or should I pick it?" Lu Ping picked up a tray with ease. This tray is also very interesting. The stainless steel plate is covered with a disposable plastic bag.
Shen Yuze thought for a while: After covering the plastic bag in this way, there is no need to wash the dishes. You only need to throw away the plastic bag to complete the cleaning of the dishes. This is also a kind of common people's wisdom.
Shen Yuze: "You choose, you know what I don't eat."
Lu Ping nodded.
He leaned over to the freezer, excitedly choosing the ingredients to eat.Baby cabbage, cabbage, cauliflower, and eggplant are must-haves; pumpkin and taro are the soul and are indispensable; fried enoki mushrooms and oyster mushrooms are also delicious, and you must not miss it... Oh, how did he forget to fry lotus root!
As for the meat dishes, they are his third favorites: crispy pork, starchy sausage and short ribs!
People in Jiaojiang love to eat glutinous rice cakes, so they have invented various rice cakes with different shapes, different raw materials, and different viscosities.In addition to the common cylindrical and square shapes, the cakes in sweet and sour fried cakes also have cheese sandwiches or meat sandwiches inside.If you are not used to eating rice cakes, you can also choose rice noodles or udon noodles to fry in.In the end, Lu Ping chose the most traditional square and round rice cake. The various ingredients on the plate were piled up into a hill, which was so heavy that the two boys could eat on one plate... As for the price, it was only 30 yuan.
Lu Ping still has this little money!
After paying the bill and taking the sign, Lu Ping found an empty table and dragged Shen Yuze to sit down.
Shen Yuze glanced at the gray table and the lame stool... Well, since he met Lu Ping, his cleanliness has plummeted, and he can't even see this kind of rickety chair and sticky table .
These minutes of waiting for the pan to come out are always the longest.There was a pleasant smell of food in the air. Seeing that the other guests had eaten and the table in front of them was still empty, Lu Ping's stomach began to drum non-stop.
It was also a coincidence that not long after they sat down, a group of students in uniforms from the experimental middle school rushed in and sat at the table behind them.
A boy with a cropped hair chirped and said, "Have you heard that? We lost the English speech contest in the afternoon!"
"Who did you lose to?"
"Who else could it be? No.[-] Middle School! Apart from No.[-] Middle School, there is no other school in Jiaojiang."
"Damn, actually lost to No. [-] Middle School?"
"I would rather lose to other schools!"
"My roommate went to watch that match, and I'll ask him for a video when I go back. I want to see what's so great about that contestant in No. [-] Middle School, that he won first place?" "It's said to be a man."
"A top student is ugly, he must be an ugly man!"
Shen Yuze and Lu Ping looked at each other, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
Lu Ping felt a little regretful, he just took off his No. [-] Middle School uniform before getting out of the car, and changed back into his own denim jacket.If he had known that people from the Experimental Middle School were eating here, he would have worn his school uniform anyway, to show off their prestige.
Lu Ping lowered his voice and asked: "They said you are ugly, are you not angry?"
"What's there to be angry about?" Shen Yuze replied calmly, "The loser loves to yell. When you watch movies, the loser villain will definitely say: 'You wait, I will come back!', this is just a villain cliché, no one will take it seriously."
"..."
"Besides," Shen Yuze said again, "only those who are poked in the sore spot will be angry because of other people's slander. They say I'm ugly, but I have the opposite opinion with them, so I don't feel angry, I only feel that they are ugly. ridiculous."
Lu Ping thought to himself, what is "holding the opposite opinion"?I didn't expect Shen Yuze to be so narcissistic.
Forget it, there's no need to affect today's dinner for a few passers-by.
They waited for a few more minutes before the landlady called their number.Lu Ping jumped up like a spring on his buttocks, and happily went to pick up the meal.
Holding the plate in one hand and two pairs of disposable chopsticks in the other, he walked back wobbly.
Brown-red sweet and sour sauce is wrapped on every vegetable leaf and every piece of rice cake, and the sweet aroma hits your face. Even if Shen Yuze is not fond of sweets, he will inevitably move his index finger when he smells such a smell.
As if offering a treasure, Lu Ping said, "Try it, try it!"
So Shen Yuze picked up a chopstick of taro and put it in his mouth.
I don't know what kind of taro it is. It's not very sweet, but it tastes very "sandy", and the taste is firm and not too soft.After frying, the taro is covered with a crispy shell, and then rolled in the sweet and sour sauce... This bite is soft, sweet, salty, and fragrant, and there is a hint of it The pepper seasoning is really appetizing.
When he was eating, Lu Ping did not move his chopsticks, but watched eagerly from the side.Shen Yuze chewed, and his heart jumped, until Shen Yuze swallowed the food in his mouth, Lu Ping immediately asked: "How is it, isn't it delicious?"
Shen Yuze nodded: "Well, it's not as sweet as I imagined, it's sour, with a little bit of spiciness, it's quite delicious."
With his affirmation, Lu Ping became happy.He is very proud of the food in his hometown, and every time he introduces food to Shen Yuze, he is afraid that it will not suit the taste of this northerner.But he can rest assured now!
Lu Ping waved his chopsticks to attack the hill-like food. He hadn't eaten sweet and sour fried cakes for a long time. Fortunately, there were two of them today, so he was able to get some of each dish.
They sat on the side of the road, enjoying the night breeze while eating fried cakes, not to mention how comfortable they were.
There were no bowls in the store, so the two could only lean forward and eat in front of the plate.In this way, the distance between the two is very close, and the legs under the table will touch each other from time to time, and the shoulders will also collide frequently.
Lu Ping thought this was very interesting, and even deliberately bumped Shen Yuze's knee with his knee. One bump was not enough, and he bumped it a second time and a third time.Although he didn't have much strength, this blow was enough to upset Shen Yuze.
Shen Yuze had no choice but to warn him: "Have you played enough?"
Lu Ping said confidently: "No."
While talking, Lu Ping bumped him with his knee again, but this time Lu Ping's trick failed - because Shen Yuze suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed it on his thigh, restraining his movement.
"Pingping," the young man flicked the end of his eyes, and said a few words from his thin lips, "Don't make trouble."
Lu Ping: "..."
For some reason, the hand on Lu Ping's leg was terrifyingly strong, even through the jeans, Lu Ping still felt the heat of his palm.
Lu Ping stared blankly at Shen Yuze, and for a moment, he felt that Shen Yuze had something to tell him.
He suddenly recalled what Shen Yuze said on the stage-"Everyone spends their whole life traveling...Fortunately, I have found my harbor."
If he is Shen Yuze's harbor, is Shen Yuze also his harbor?
The atmosphere gradually changed, and there was a burst of dampness in the air.It was as if an invisible tide was hitting Lu Ping's body wave after wave, and he really turned into a solitary boat. Driven by the waves, he slowly, little by little, approached Shen Yuze's direction.
They were so close that Lu Ping couldn't help staring at Shen Yuze's lips.
At such a close distance, Shen Yuze's facial features are still so perfect that he can't find any mistakes. His lips are thin, a little light in color, and his nose is very straight... When kissing, you should turn your head slightly to kiss. Those cool lips?
Lu Ping's head was surrounded by various voices in a mess, and his reason had been submerged by the tide. He stepped on the top of the waves and sailed towards his harbor.At the same time, Shen Yuze also leaned down slowly in his direction.
Just a little closer, just a little more, and he can...
he can...
——"md, why is there such a large piece of ginger in the sweet and sour fried cake, I thought it was a potato!!"
A profanity burst out from the table behind them.
A certain boy from the experimental middle school cursed and picked out the ginger that had been mixed into the plate, and publicly sentenced him to death.There was still a row of neat teeth marks on the ginger piece, and his classmates showed no sympathy at all, and instead laughed at him for being blind.
It was this sudden burst of noise that woke Lu Ping up instantly.
The tide that was rushing up to the top of the head subsided in a very short time, and Lu Ping's boat ran aground like this.
He finally realized what rebellious things he was thinking just now, and he dodged back abruptly, pulling away the distance from Shen Yuze.
His legs trembled uncontrollably, which is what he often does with a guilty conscience.Shen Yuze's hand that was originally on his lap was thrown away by him, and he seemed to ask unintentionally: "Ha, haha, Shen Yuze, are you hot? I suddenly feel a little hot. Do you want a cold drink?"
"..." Shen Yuze saw his escape.He stared at his side face, suddenly raised his hand, and reached out to the boy's cheek.
Lu Ping wanted to hide, but couldn't.
The boy's cold fingertips lightly touched the corner of his mouth, and nodded lightly: "There are dirty things here."
Lu Ping hastily pulled out a few sheets of paper from the tissue box, wiped them carelessly, and looked down, only to see a few drops of brown-red sauce on the paper towel, which should have been accidentally stained while eating.
So...he just stared at Shen Yuze stupidly with such a dirty face, and even wanted to kiss... ——stop! !
Lu Ping dismantled the imaginary boat with his bare hands, so that the boat that was drifting around with the current could no longer float up, let alone sail in the direction of Shen Yuze in a daze!
Shen Yuze is his best friend, how could he have such thoughts about his friend?
If you want to blame it, blame this guy for being too good-looking, just like girls like to look at beautiful women, why can't boys like to look at handsome guys?The two of them were so close together that Lu Ping was thinking wildly and almost did something wrong.
Lu Ping comforted himself: It's okay, it's okay, Shen Yuze must not be able to see that he almost crossed the line just now.As long as they continue to maintain a suitable distance, the friendship can be maintained for a long time.
Lu Ping didn't dare to think too much. He pulled the dinner plate in front of him and ate hard, trying to avoid the embarrassing incident just now.
What he didn't know was that when he was concentrating on eating, Shen Yuze turned to look at the table behind him, and looked at the students of the experimental middle school with dark eyes.
——For these bastards who disturbed his good business, I hope that there will be endless ginger in every dish they eat in the future.
The partner has the function of canceling the account. As long as the application for canceling the account is submitted, all traces of this account will disappear on the Internet within ten working days.

Lu Ping was taken aback, turned off the screen of the phone in a panic, and hid it in the palm of his hand to hide it.
He kept squatting, looked up at the tall boy beside him, and asked nervously, "You, when did you come?"
I hope Shen Yuze didn't see his phone screen.
Hearing his question, Shen Yuze raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked unhappily: "I won the championship, what was the first sentence you said when you saw me?"
The young man raised the heavy crystal trophy in his hand, with an expression of "If you don't say something nice, I won't show you the trophy".

He leaned over to the freezer, excitedly choosing the ingredients to eat.Baby cabbage, cabbage, cauliflower, and eggplant are must-haves; pumpkin and taro are the soul and are indispensable; fried enoki mushrooms and oyster mushrooms are also delicious, and you must not miss it... Oh, how did he forget to fry lotus root!
As for the meat dishes, they are his third favorites: crispy pork, starchy sausage and short ribs!
People in Jiaojiang love to eat glutinous rice cakes, so they have invented various rice cakes with different shapes, different raw materials, and different viscosities.In addition to the common cylindrical and square shapes, the cakes in sweet and sour fried cakes also have cheese sandwiches or meat sandwiches inside.If you are not used to eating rice cakes, you can also choose rice noodles or udon noodles to fry in.In the end, Lu Ping chose the most traditional square and round rice cake. The various ingredients on the plate were piled up into a hill, which was so heavy that the two boys could eat on one plate... As for the price, it was only 30 yuan.
Lu Ping still has this little money!
After paying the bill and taking the sign, Lu Ping found an empty table and dragged Shen Yuze to sit down.
Shen Yuze glanced at the gray table and the lame stool... Well, since he met Lu Ping, his cleanliness has plummeted, and he can't even see this kind of rickety chair and sticky table .
These minutes of waiting for the pan to come out are always the longest.There was a pleasant smell of food in the air. Seeing that the other guests had eaten and the table in front of them was still empty, Lu Ping's stomach began to drum non-stop.
It was also a coincidence that not long after they sat down, a group of students in uniforms from the experimental middle school rushed in and sat at the table behind them.
A boy with a cropped hair chirped and said, "Have you heard that? We lost the English speech contest in the afternoon!"
"Who did you lose to?"
"Who else could it be? No.[-] Middle School! Apart from No.[-] Middle School, there is no other school in Jiaojiang."
"Damn, actually lost to No. [-] Middle School?"
"I would rather lose to other schools!"
"My roommate went to watch that match, and I'll ask him for a video when I go back. I want to see what's so great about that contestant in No. [-] Middle School, that he won first place?" "It's said to be a man."
"A top student is ugly, he must be an ugly man!"
Shen Yuze and Lu Ping looked at each other, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
Lu Ping felt a little regretful, he just took off his No. [-] Middle School uniform before getting out of the car, and changed back into his own denim jacket.If he had known that people from the Experimental Middle School were eating here, he would have worn his school uniform anyway, to show off their prestige.
Lu Ping lowered his voice and asked: "They said you are ugly, are you not angry?"
"What's there to be angry about?" Shen Yuze replied calmly, "The loser loves to yell. When you watch movies, the loser villain will definitely say: 'You wait, I will come back!', this is just a villain cliché, no one will take it seriously."
"..."
"Besides," Shen Yuze said again, "only those who are poked in the sore spot will be angry because of other people's slander. They say I'm ugly, but I have the opposite opinion with them, so I don't feel angry, I only feel that they are ugly. ridiculous."
Lu Ping thought to himself, what is "holding the opposite opinion"?I didn't expect Shen Yuze to be so narcissistic.
Forget it, there's no need to affect today's dinner for a few passers-by.
They waited for a few more minutes before the landlady called their number.Lu Ping jumped up like a spring on his buttocks, and happily went to pick up the meal.
Holding the plate in one hand and two pairs of disposable chopsticks in the other, he walked back wobbly.
Brown-red sweet and sour sauce is wrapped on every vegetable leaf and every piece of rice cake, and the sweet aroma hits your face. Even if Shen Yuze is not fond of sweets, he will inevitably move his index finger when he smells such a smell.
As if offering a treasure, Lu Ping said, "Try it, try it!"
So Shen Yuze picked up a chopstick of taro and put it in his mouth.
I don't know what kind of taro it is. It's not very sweet, but it tastes very "sandy", and the taste is firm and not too soft.After frying, the taro is covered with a crispy shell, and then rolled in the sweet and sour sauce... This bite is soft, sweet, salty, and fragrant, and there is a hint of it The pepper seasoning is really appetizing.
When he was eating, Lu Ping did not move his chopsticks, but watched eagerly from the side.Shen Yuze chewed, and his heart jumped, until Shen Yuze swallowed the food in his mouth, Lu Ping immediately asked: "How is it, isn't it delicious?"
Shen Yuze nodded: "Well, it's not as sweet as I imagined, it's sour, with a little bit of spiciness, it's quite delicious."
With his affirmation, Lu Ping became happy.He is very proud of the food in his hometown, and every time he introduces food to Shen Yuze, he is afraid that it will not suit the taste of this northerner.But he can rest assured now!
Lu Ping waved his chopsticks to attack the hill-like food. He hadn't eaten sweet and sour fried cakes for a long time. Fortunately, there were two of them today, so he was able to get some of each dish.
They sat on the side of the road, enjoying the night breeze while eating fried cakes, not to mention how comfortable they were.
There were no bowls in the store, so the two could only lean forward and eat in front of the plate.In this way, the distance between the two is very close, and the legs under the table will touch each other from time to time, and the shoulders will also collide frequently.
Lu Ping thought this was very interesting, and even deliberately bumped Shen Yuze's knee with his knee. One bump was not enough, and he bumped it a second time and a third time.Although he didn't have much strength, this blow was enough to upset Shen Yuze.
Shen Yuze had no choice but to warn him: "Have you played enough?"
Lu Ping said confidently: "No."
While talking, Lu Ping bumped him with his knee again, but this time Lu Ping's trick failed - because Shen Yuze suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed it on his thigh, restraining his movement.
"Pingping," the young man flicked the end of his eyes, and said a few words from his thin lips, "Don't make trouble."
Lu Ping: "..."
For some reason, the hand on Lu Ping's leg was terrifyingly strong, even through the jeans, Lu Ping still felt the heat of his palm.
Lu Ping stared blankly at Shen Yuze, and for a moment, he felt that Shen Yuze had something to tell him.
He suddenly recalled what Shen Yuze said on the stage-"Everyone spends their whole life traveling...Fortunately, I have found my harbor."
If he is Shen Yuze's harbor, is Shen Yuze also his harbor?
The atmosphere gradually changed, and there was a burst of dampness in the air.It was as if an invisible tide was hitting Lu Ping's body wave after wave, and he really turned into a solitary boat. Driven by the waves, he slowly, little by little, approached Shen Yuze's direction.
They were so close that Lu Ping couldn't help staring at Shen Yuze's lips.
At such a close distance, Shen Yuze's facial features are still so perfect that he can't find any mistakes. His lips are thin, a little light in color, and his nose is very straight... When kissing, you should turn your head slightly to kiss. Those cool lips?
Lu Ping's head was surrounded by various voices in a mess, and his reason had been submerged by the tide. He stepped on the top of the waves and sailed towards his harbor.At the same time, Shen Yuze also leaned down slowly in his direction.
Just a little closer, just a little more, and he can...
he can...
——"md, why is there such a large piece of ginger in the sweet and sour fried cake, I thought it was a potato!!"
A profanity burst out from the table behind them.
A certain boy from the experimental middle school cursed and picked out the ginger that had been mixed into the plate, and publicly sentenced him to death.There was still a row of neat teeth marks on the ginger piece, and his classmates showed no sympathy at all, and instead laughed at him for being blind.
It was this sudden burst of noise that woke Lu Ping up instantly.
The tide that was rushing up to the top of the head subsided in a very short time, and Lu Ping's boat ran aground like this.
He finally realized what rebellious things he was thinking just now, and he dodged back abruptly, pulling away the distance from Shen Yuze.
His legs trembled uncontrollably, which is what he often does with a guilty conscience.Shen Yuze's hand that was originally on his lap was thrown away by him, and he seemed to ask unintentionally: "Ha, haha, Shen Yuze, are you hot? I suddenly feel a little hot. Do you want a cold drink?"
"..." Shen Yuze saw his escape.He stared at his side face, suddenly raised his hand, and reached out to the boy's cheek.
Lu Ping wanted to hide, but couldn't.
The boy's cold fingertips lightly touched the corner of his mouth, and nodded lightly: "There are dirty things here."
Lu Ping hastily pulled out a few sheets of paper from the tissue box, wiped them carelessly, and looked down, only to see a few drops of brown-red sauce on the paper towel, which should have been accidentally stained while eating.
So...he just stared at Shen Yuze stupidly with such a dirty face, and even wanted to kiss... ——stop! !
Lu Ping dismantled the imaginary boat with his bare hands, so that the boat that was drifting around with the current could no longer float up, let alone sail in the direction of Shen Yuze in a daze!
Shen Yuze is his best friend, how could he have such thoughts about his friend?
If you want to blame it, blame this guy for being too good-looking, just like girls like to look at beautiful women, why can't boys like to look at handsome guys?The two of them were so close together that Lu Ping was thinking wildly and almost did something wrong.
Lu Ping comforted himself: It's okay, it's okay, Shen Yuze must not be able to see that he almost crossed the line just now.As long as they continue to maintain a suitable distance, the friendship can be maintained for a long time.
Lu Ping didn't dare to think too much. He pulled the dinner plate in front of him and ate hard, trying to avoid the embarrassing incident just now.
What he didn't know was that when he was concentrating on eating, Shen Yuze turned to look at the table behind him, and looked at the students of the experimental middle school with dark eyes.
——For these bastards who disturbed his good business, I hope that there will be endless ginger in every dish they eat in the future.
