"Then I sent it, but he might not reply to me." Yunli said slowly, her voice getting smaller and smaller, "Then I asked for his contact information before, but he didn't give it to me..."

"That was before, it doesn't mean in the future." Deng Chuqi enlightened her, "Besides, I guessed it right, Lili, have you always liked him since you asked for his contact information?"

Yunli said nothing, lowered her head and played with the little football in her hand.

"Have you ever revealed it to him again?"

Yunli shook her head.

"Do you think he knows?"

Yunli still shook his head, "He seems to regard me as a junior like Fu Zhengchu, and he treats me quite normally." Thinking of the more than a hundred unanswered text messages, Yunli said dullly: "If he knew, maybe You will never talk to me again.”

Knowing Yunli's character, Deng Chuqi couldn't bear it: "Have you taken the initiative?"

Yunli immediately said, "I have it."

"Why did you take the initiative? Tell yourself."

"I talked to him..."

"Then what?"

"That's right, I've spoken..."

“…”

Thinking that Yun Li's character was hopeless, Deng Chuqi began to persuade him to quit: "Forget it, we should give up early. In fact, Uncle Xia Xia doesn't have much good, except that she has a decent face and a better family background.

"Besides, he doesn't have a good temper. He has a cold face every day, and you don't dare to speak to him. It makes the two of you act like a pantomime."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Yunli staring at her, looking unhappy, "He just doesn't like to talk. You can't talk about him like you just said. He is a very good person."

Deng Chuqi was stunned and thought for a long time, wondering how Fu Shize's ascetic and cold face matched this word.

"Lili, is it possible that you," perhaps afraid of hurting her feelings, Deng Chuqi chose her words more carefully, "are just attracted by his face? I'm tired of looking at this face, and the two of them still have bad tempers when they are together. most important."

Yunli shook her head and said, "If it's Fu Shize's face, I can look at it forever."

Deng Chuqi: "If this face can only be seen by other women in the future, can you accept it?"

Yunli remembered that that night Fu Shize sat aside and watched her play with fireworks in silence.

Thinking of a similar scene happening between him and another woman, Yunli felt like her breath was being cut off.

She looked at Deng Chuqi, thought for a moment, and asked, "Then do you think I should chase him?"

Deng Chuqi nodded affirmatively.

"Then do you think my probability of success is high?"

Deng Chuqi nodded, "It should be 0.1%."

“…”

Yunli only has experience of being chased. When she was an undergraduate, a boy expressed affection for her, bought her small gifts, and asked her to go out, but she refused.

Yunli has no idea of development and doesn't like to be with people she doesn't know well. Several experiences of being chased left her with bad memories.

Deng Chuqi is a playboy. If a man loves her, she will talk to her. If a man doesn't love her, she will change her. She can't give Yunli any advice.

The two of them checked a lot of information on the Internet, and most of the advice they gave was to flirt and run away - don't be too direct, create more opportunities, wait until the other person likes you, and then break through this layer of paper.

Yunli could also imagine that if she confessed to Fu Shize now, his reaction would probably be to reject her outright and reduce contact in the future.

It was about nine o'clock, and Deng Chuqi also left. Before leaving, she asked Yunli if she wanted to call Xia Congsheng. They might still be at Fu Shize's house.

Yunli's first reaction was to refuse, but under Deng Chuqi's eyes, she had no choice but to nod.

Before making the call, Yunli arranged her hair. This time was different from the past. It was equivalent to the first attempt to pursue Fu Shize with determination. When the phone rang, Yunli's chest rose and fell, and countless possibilities of failure in the future flashed through his mind.

Before she hung up the phone, Fu Zhengchu answered the call.

It can be seen that the background where Fu Zhengchu is is similar to the style in the photo, so he probably hasn't gone back yet.

"Sister Qiqi, my sister's phone is here with me. I don't know where she is." Fu Zhengchu stood up, looked around, and then returned to the camera.

"Are you still eating? It looks very lively over there." Deng Chuqi said a few perfunctory words.

Fu Zhengchu started to tell them about today's dinner. Within two minutes, Deng Chuqi interrupted him and asked, "Who is there?"

"My uncle and Brother Qingsong are here. Oh, do you want to say hello to them?" After finishing speaking, Fu Zhengchu stood up without looking at the camera. He seemed to be walking upstairs.

Deng Chuqi pushed his phone and left most of the pictures to Yunli.

Fu Zhengchu went up to the second floor, walked through a corridor, and then the camera turned to the room.

It can be seen from the video that Fu Shi is sitting on the bedside, his tie has been taken off and all buttons have not been fastened.

Xu Qingsong stood on the side, both of them looked at the camera, while Fu Shi took a puff of cigarette, and gray smoke flickered in the screen.

He frowned slightly and said to Fu Zhengchu, "Turn off the video."

"I'm video chatting with Sister Lili and the others. Uncle, please say hello."

From the moment he entered the room, Fu Zhengchu kept pointing the screen at him, so Fu Shize only saw him coming in holding up his mobile phone and thought he was recording.

At this moment, he immediately put out his cigarette and looked a little unnatural.

As the camera came closer, the expressionless face instantly enlarged.

His silence made Fu Zhengchu a little embarrassed. Fu Zhengchu turned the camera back: "Sister Lili, sister Qiqi, don't worry about it, my uncle is just not very polite..."

Fu Shize said slowly: "How can I say hello when I don't see anyone?"

"I forgot." After Fu Zhengchu finished speaking, Yunli saw the screen begin to rotate 180 degrees, and then Fu Shize's face appeared in front of the camera again.

Yunli noticed that the buttons that had been loosened were fastened.

Yunli waited for a while, and when he saw that he didn't speak, he took the initiative and said, "Long time no see."

The moment he left the mouth, Yunli regretted it again.

Obviously... I just met him a few days ago.

Fu Shize didn't stay long, hummed, and returned the phone to Fu Zhengchu.

Yunli was almost broken by this unrelenting indifference.

A few seconds later, Yunli heard Xu Qingsong say: "I heard that Sang Yan opened a bar. It seems to be called Overtime. Do you want to go and have a look?"

Fu Zhengchu: "It's a bit late. I have classes tomorrow."

Xu Qingsong smiled and said: "I didn't say I would take you."

"No, I have to go too." Fu Zhengchu looked back at the camera and said to Yunli, "Sister Lili, we are going out to play. I will ask my sister to call back later."

Seeing that the phone was about to hang up, Yunli blurted out: "Are you going to work overtime?"

She paused for a while and said, "We are going there later. I heard that business there is very good. Do you want to book a table for you? Today is Sunday, so there should be a lot of people."

At first, Fu Zhengchu also wanted to make an appointment with them, but he thought it was too late. After hearing Yun Li's words, he agreed to meet them at ten o'clock during overtime.

Yunli didn't know about this overtime bar. After hanging up the phone, he checked online. It was opposite Shang'an Square, 30 minutes' drive away.

The store is located on the famous bar street in Nanwu City. The decoration of the bar is more like a barber shop, with a black plaque and a pure white store name.

The two of them reserved a large booth, and a few others arrived a quarter of an hour later. Fu Zhengchu naturally sat next to Yun Li.

Several people had not yet changed their clothes, but had only taken off their ties. Fu Zhengchu loosened his collar, took the wine list, and let Yun Li and Deng Chuqi take a look first.

Yunli rarely went to bars and had no idea about the fancy names on the wine list, so she just ordered a drink.

Looking at Fu Shize, he was sitting diagonally in front of Yunli, leaning back on the seat. He seemed to be very relaxed now.

Deng Chuqi: "Are you having a family dinner today? Is it my uncle's mother's birthday?"

Xia Cong laughed loudly: "Yes, my uncle and grandma prefer to hold these family gatherings, and many of the close relatives are classmates of the same generation, and we have had a good relationship from before."

The title uncle and grandma always makes people feel that the other person is very old.

Seemingly noticing this, Xia Congsheng explained briefly: "My uncle, my uncle, and my grandfather are professors at the Western University of Science and Technology. They are more career-minded and have children late, so my uncle is younger than me."

Just as the wine was being served, several people picked up their wine glasses and toasted. Yunli drank with the crowd and was burned to death. Tears instantly rushed to her eyes.

This wine is also too spicy.

No wonder hers only has 3 centimeters from the bottom of the cup. Is it pure wine

After adjusting for a while and holding back her tears, Yunli breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that no one had noticed her embarrassment just now.

Several more glasses of wine were served one after another, all ordered by Fu Zhengchu.

Thinking of his drinking capacity, Yunli couldn't help but said, "Fu Zhengchu, drink less."

"Sister Lili, since we're out to play, we're going to have fun." Fu Zhengchu pushed a few glasses of wine in Yunli's direction, "Would you like to try it?"

Yunli shook her head helplessly.

After finishing the first glass of wine, Xu Qingsong stood up and said he wanted to say hello to the owner of the bar. Fu Shi did not follow, but went to sit at the bar by himself.

Deng Chuqi poked Yunli's waist.

Yunli ignored it and went to the bar to make another drink on the pretext that his wine didn't taste very good.

After Yunli passed by, she found Fu Shize playing dice with his head down in front of the bar. The way he played was also very strange. He would shake three dice and then take a look, then four or five dice. After adding a certain number of dice, he would shake again.

Just as he was about to go over, a slim-looking woman suddenly appeared next to him, leaning on him, holding her cheek and staring straight at Fu Shize.

"Handsome guy, can you buy me a drink?"

Finally, he mustered up the courage, but someone else took the lead in front of him, leaving Yunli in a state of confusion.

Fu Shize was still rolling the dice without saying a word.

The woman repeated: "Is that okay?" Seeing his indifference, she reached out to touch Fu Shize's collar.

Yunli thought she was going to touch Fu Shize's face, so she instinctively blurted out: "Auntie, wait a moment."

“…”

Interrupted midway, the woman frowned and looked at Yunli, with a bad tone: "Little girl, when chatting up, it's also a matter of first come, first served, do you understand?"

"And, who is the aunt?"

The woman turned around and when her anger was about to peak, Yunli pursed her lips and said, "He is my friend."

Yunli pointed to the booth and said: "There are many people over there, and they are all students. Auntie, don't force my friend to buy you a drink. I will call the counselor."

“…”

The woman seemed a little speechless, picked up the wine glass and walked away.

This interruption broke Yunli's original plan. Just as she was debating whether to go back to the booth, Fu Shi lowered his eyes to the empty seat next to him and said in a low voice, "Sit here."
