Folding Moon

Having said that, Yun Li also realized that something was wrong.

Originally, it was because she hadn’t been reading the word correctly today so she wasn’t sure if she was pronouncing it correctly when she was practicing, therefore she read it a few more times. The later sentences were also made because they had gone through this process earlier, so she just went along with it.

She didn’t expect to say this sentence.

The fans wouldn’t have sensed that it was wrong, but she had a guilty conscience like a thief and felt that the connotation was very obvious.

After all, it was Fu Shi Ze’s choice whether he agreed or refused, and no one could criticize him.

And her behavior came across as petty and angry.

Yun Li was ashamed, the more she tried to hide, the more she was exposed, “It doesn’t mean anything, I’m just making up a sentence.”

A few more minutes of broadcast followed before she hurriedly got off the line.

The room was quiet, with only the air conditioning whirring.

After this little episode, Yun Li was inevitably frightened by the “scolding” behind her back, but only for a moment. She soon figured it out, and her heart fell to the ground.

Because Yun Li was sure.

It was unlikely that someone who was obviously not interested in her would have the time to watch her live.

……

She had been suffering from a “love injury” for a few days now, and Yun Li has been unable to work hard. It was not until she received a message from He Jia Meng that she realized that EAW had officially opened today.

During this time, the only thing Yun Li did was to make good on her promise to update the video of her visit to the EAW club. Judging from He Jia Meng’s reaction, the response to the video promotion seemed to be very good.

She was also in a much better mood as a result.

As we chatted, He Jiameng also sent her a few photos from the opening ceremony.

The other day He Jia Meng had invited Yun Li, but she didn’t really want to go, so she found an excuse to put it off.

Yun Li looked at them and found that there was a picture of Fu Shi Ze among them.

He was wearing EAW’s black shirt and uniform, sitting at one of the desks, leaning against the back of his chair and resting his eyes. It looked like a sneak peek and was a bit blurry.

He Jia Meng:【One of them was sent out with shaky hands qvq.】

He Jia Meng:【He’s really handsome!】

He Jia Meng:【But it looks so tugged, gloomy and cold, I am also afraid to talk to him】

The mention of this man reminded me of that day, so Yun Li pulled away her depression:【So are you guys very busy today?】

He Jia Meng: [Yes, there are still a lot of people in line.】

He Jia Meng:【I’m exhausted! I’ve just been dragged downstairs to help!】

Without saying a few words, He Jia Meng went back to work.

Yun Li was bored and didn’t want to muddle on seeing others working so hard. Thinking that she would be reporting to school in a couple of days, she wanted to get her video for next week made before then.

When she came across a towel roll that looked mouth-watering, Yun Li decided to make it a towel roll feast. With the kitchen fully stocked, she got up and got to work without delay.

Following the tutorial, adjusting the recipe to her liking and setting up the camera, Yun Li began to make it.

She loved the cooking process and had produced many food videos in the past. Although it was time-consuming and labor-intensive, the finished product comes out with an unusual sense of achievement.

This tossing and turning takes several hours.

It was only when the taste and appearance were perfect that Yun Li felt it was finished. When she looked out of the window, it was almost dawn. After packing the finished product into the fridge, she hastily tidied up the kitchen, took a quick shower and went to sleep.

The next day, Yun Li woke up from a call from Deng Chu Qi.

Today, Friday, she and her roommate came to EAW Tech City to play. She was just finishing up and since she didn’t usually come to this side of Tongxi, she simply invited Yun Li to have dinner with her.

With a stranger around, Yun Li didn’t really want to go, but she couldn’t resist Deng Chu Qi’s persuasion.

Yun Li got up, washed up and put on her make-up neatly. Remembering the ice rolls she had made last night, she saved only one of each flavor and stuffed the rest into a thermal bag with dry ice, intending to take them to Deng Chu Qi and her roommate to try.

And then she left the house.

The place for dinner was a chain of hot pot restaurants in Hai Tian Commercial City, which was doing a brisk business. When Yun Li arrived, there was still a long queue at the door.

Yun Li:【I’m here, which table are you at?】

Deng Chu Qi:【So soon? We just got our number and came in. You wait, I’ll go out and get you.】

In less than half a minute, Deng Chu Qi came out from inside: “Sisters!”

Yun Li laughed: “It’s just a few steps, why did you come out here?”

“I just came out to give you an early warning.” Deng Chu Qi clasped her hands together, as if she felt sorry for her, but also felt too good for her, “I know if I had told you on the phone, you would never have come over.”

“Huh?”

“My roommate has two relatives! Both extremely fucking handsome!” Deng Chu Qi was excited and righteous, “Yun Li, you’re my best sister! How the hell could I forget about it when something like this happens?”

“…”

Yun Li’s hair stood on end, “There’s a lot of people in there?”

Deng Chu Qi: “There aren’t a lot of people! Plus me, there are only four!”

Yun Li resisted: “No, I’m leaving. Let’s make another date.”

“You’ll regret it if you don’t see it, it’s really handsome!” Deng Chu Qi tugged her hard and walked inside, “If you don’t want to talk, think of it as going to enjoy the scenery! I can still embarrass you? And just in case you run into one that interests you!”

“How could that be!”

“How is that not possible!”

“…”

Yun Li couldn’t wring it out, so she had to follow it in.

Never mind.

There were only three people, much fewer than at the last EAW party.

Anyway, not knowing each other, so we’ll just pretend to have a meal and leave.

The shop was filled with smoke and aromas. The seats were all full, without exception.

A Little distance from the doorway, Deng Chu Qi was still explaining the situation to her, “I’m hanging out with my roommate today and my roommate’s little brother.”

Yun Li didn’t care to listen and nodded perfunctorily.

Deng Chu Qi: “My roommate’s uncle happens to work at EAW, he seems to be some kind of equipment engineer. They later shouted at his uncle…”

Before he could finish, he had already walked over to where they were.

The hot pot restaurant had arranged for a large table. The U shaped hard seats in a corner of the restaurant which seemed quite quiet. Past this direction, all Yun Li could see was a very pretty woman smiling and talking.

The other two were blocked by the seats.

Deng Chu Qi stopped talking and pulled Yun Li into a seat from the other side: “I’m here with my baby!”

The woman turned her head, her gaze resting on her, her eyes bent in a smile, “It’s Yun Li isn’t it? I’ve often heard Chu Qi talk about you.”

Yun Li was shy and was about to say hello when her eyes swept over and caught a glimpse of the two across the room. Pausing, she looked over again and her smile just froze on her face.

“…”

Who could?

Tell her.

What’s going on now?

Fu Shi Ze was another story first.

The boy I met at the airport, why is he here too?

Fu Zheng Chu’s eyes widened and he was confused too.

Deng Chu Qi didn’t notice that something was wrong, she just thought she was afraid of being a stranger and took the initiative to introduce herself, “Li Li, this is my roommate and colleague, Xia Cong Sheng.”

“Crap!” Fu Zheng Chu’s mind returned to its place and he looked at Yun Li incredulously, “You still recognise me, right? You still recognise me, right?”

Yun Li barely managed to stifle a “hn”.

Xia Cong Sheng was puzzled, “What’s wrong? Do you guys know each other?”

Omitting the details of which he asked for a weibo, Fu Zheng Chu briefly explained what happened that day, most emphatically when he said that EAW was owned by his brother, which Yun Li did not believe.

Deng Chu Qi was happy: “Such a coincidence?”

Yun Li also understood: “Your brother is Xu Qing Song?”

“Sort of related,” Xia Cong Sheng explained, “My grandmother was Qing Song’s mother’s adoptive mother.”

Fu Zheng Chu nodded: “I sent a WeChat to Qing Song’s brother after I went back that day, asking if they were looking for someone to promote their shop, and there was a man who had been waiting for a long time at the airport for a pick-up. Later, he asked me to ask my little uncle to go pick up the person.”

The more he heard, the stranger she felt, Yun Li couldn’t resist asking, “Sorry for asking, your little uncle is?”

Fu Zheng Chu pointed to Fu Shi Ze who was next to him.

“…”

Yun Li almost couldn’t control his expression.

Didn’t these guys look the same fucking age?

How did they become uncle and nephew?

Fu Zheng Chu reacted, “So the two of you should have met, right?”

“Hn?” Yun Li didn’t even dare to look at Fu Shi Ze tugging at the hem of Deng Chu Qi’s shirt under the table, “That’s right.”

Receiving the signal, Deng Chu Qi coughed lightly and immediately changed the subject, “Speaking of which, it’s indeed quite a coincidence, I remember that my younger brother is also a student of Southern Polytechnic, right?”

Fu Zheng Chu: “Yes, is there anyone else?”

Upon hearing this, Yun Li was a little surprised and subconsciously looked at Fu Zheng Chu.

He also studied at Southern Polytechnic?

When she thought about it, when she met Fu Zheng Chu at the airport, he had said that EAW was near his school.

But at the time she didn’t think about it either.

“Oh,” Xia Cong Sheng remembered, “You told me last time that Li Li had taken the post-graduate course at South Polytechnic, right?”

Yun Li nodded.

Fu Zheng Chu was stunned, his eyes wide, “So we’re still alumni?”

Xia Cong Sheng said, “You should call her senior.”

“Oh oh,” Fu Zheng Chu was able to bend and stretch and was also excited by this fate, “I’m returning to school the day after tomorrow, so do you report to school the day after tomorrow? It seems to be the same time in our school.”

“Yes.” Yun Li replied.

“Huh? You report to work the day after tomorrow?” Deng Chu Qi was confused, “I was going to accompany you, but I wrote it down as next week… and just promised my colleague to go shopping that day.”

“No need.” Yun Li said, “I’ll just report for work.”

“Didn’t you say you had a lot of luggage?”

“It’s okay, my little uncle is driving my little brother there the day after tomorrow.” Xia Cong Sheng volunteered, “We’ll be passing through here anyway, Li Li, why don’t you take a ride with them then, and let them carry the luggage for you?”

“…”

Having just been rejected, all Yun Li wanted at this moment was for the meal to end quickly and for the two of them to go their separate ways and never see each other again.

He had no courage to ask Fu Shi Ze.

How could he have the energy to deal with the next meeting?

She waved her hand and didn’t have time to refuse before Fu Zheng Chu readily said, “OK, my little uncle has nothing to do anyway, so let’s give him some exercise.”

“…”

After he had finished, he looked at Fu Shi Ze with a false sense of respect, “Is that okay, little uncle?”

Fu Shi Ze raised his eyes slowly and gave a casual, “Hn.”

Deng Chu Qi breathed a sigh of relief: “That’s fine, I’ll take care of you then.”

“…”

Without saying a word, Yun Li was set in motion by the remaining three.

The other remaining man at the table, who had the same treatment, did not have any half-hearted mood swings. It didn’t seem to matter much either, as if it had nothing to do with him.

…

Yun Li’s thoughts were all on the tomorrow that was yet to come, and on her own soon-to-be-dragged self.

She ate a very torturous meal, without any appetite.

Later in the meal, Deng Chu Qi’s phone rang a few times and curved her lips to give a message back.

Seeing this, Xia Cong Sheng teased, “Who are you messaging with, laughing so happily?”

“I met a young little brother on the underground train the other day, it’s my type so I asked him for his WeChat.” Deng Chu Qi happily shared, “I’ve been chatting with him for a few days, and he just asked me to go see a movie together next week.”

“That’s nice.” Xia Cong Sheng sighed, “I’ve only asked someone for contact information once and I met a scum.”

“Huh? Tell me about it.”

Xia Cong Sheng poked the meat with his chopsticks, “Just when I was in college, when I went to my little brother’s school, he and one of his classmates were both invited to their parents. That little classmate is her big brother who came over and was so handsome that I couldn’t resist asking for contact information.”

Fu Zheng Chu immediately guessed, “Sang Zhi his brother?”

“Yeah. That guy was too unreasonable, I can still remember what he said. He said, “Xia Cong Sheng said that he changed his girlfriend every day, and that he was just short of one this month, and that he’d give one if I wanted.”

“Really?”

“What would I lie to you about?”

“You can’t.” Fu Zheng Chu laughed out loud, “I was at a classmate reunion before, and I heard Sang Zhi say that her brother had been widower for over twenty years, and now he’s finally found himself a partner, bragging to the whole world that it was the woman who chased him.”

“…”

The topic of conversation has moved on to “asking people for WeChat”.

Without realizing it, by default, everyone had to say an experience.

When this was mentioned, Fu Zheng Chu looked at Yun Li with embarrassment, probably realizing that he had worn the wrong vest that day. But when he saw that she didn’t have any intention of mentioning that day, he relaxed a bit and quickly said a few words before it passed.

It was Yun Li’s turn.

In front of the person in question, she was too embarrassed to lie so she could only admit with a stiff upper lip, “I did.”

Deng Chu Qi originally thought that there could not be. After all, it was difficult to let Yun Li have contact with strangers, not to mention asking for WeChat. So when she heard this answer, she was particularly surprised: “When?”

Yun Li: “Just a while ago.”

Deng Chu Qi: “How did it go?”

Yun Li said vaguely, “He didn’t give…”

Deng Chu Qi thought she had heard wrong and was surprised at the answer, “Huh?”

Yun Li had to say it clearly again, “Well, he didn’t give it to me.”

Apart from Fu Shi Ze who didn’t say anything, the rest of the group either managed to get Weibo or didn’t care much about it, just taking it as a joke and flirting. But Yun Li was obviously still a bit concerned and the atmosphere at the table couldn’t help but seem strained.

Sensitive to the situation, Yun Li said hurriedly, “It’s nothing.”

The smile was forced.

Xia Cong Sheng couldn’t help but reassure, “Maybe that guy just wanted to act like a coward for the first time when he saw such a good-looking girl asking him for a WeChat, and then regretted it so much that he cried out in pain after he returned.”

After saying that, she glanced at Fu Zheng Chu.

Fu Zheng Chu was cooperative, “Or maybe he has a girlfriend.”

This was not the end of the story, like a story solitaire, he bumped Fu Shi Ze’s shoulder and squeezed his eyebrows: “Little Uncle, it’s your turn to comfort. As an elder, why don’t you act like one?”

“…”

An unexpected development.

Yun Li was suffocated.

How were they still understanding enough to start flogging the body in front of the executioner?

Fu Shi Ze on the other hand was expressionless: “What did you say?”

She didn’t expect him to even think of this, so Fu Zheng Chu hated him and had to come up to his ear to give him an example: “Just say it——”

“?”

“And probably a gay.”

“…”
