It was already past twelve o'clock at night.
The young lovers who came to watch the light show left Sagami Lake holding hands, chatting and laughing, and went to a hotel, cottage or nearby cabin hotel. They had the second half of the show.
When passing by Chen Yu and Li Xiang, they couldn't help but cast curious glances.
This couple, who seemed so well-matched, had a little quarrel. The boy grabbed the girl's hands to prevent her from hugging him. The girl twisted around like a caterpillar, trying to get into his arms. It was really strange.
"Just stand still and don't move."
"oh… "
When Chen Yu saw her standing obediently, he tentatively let go of her hand little by little.
As soon as Li Xiang was freed from the restraints, she giggled and came over to hug him.
"Am I that huggable?"
"I really like holding Mr. Shen Yu..."
Shen Yu sighed and gave up the struggle. Fortunately, she was just holding her, and her hands were relatively calm. Thinking that tonight's confession was also her fault, she let her hold him for a while.
"Shen Yujun, tell me."
"Let go first."
"Then you are not allowed to run away again. If you run away again, I will cry..."
"Do you think I'm afraid of you crying?"
Li Xiang also tentatively let go of him little by little, still looking at him warily with her big eyes, for fear that he would run away again. After all, she had been boiling soup for several months before he was cooked and cooked. The frog can't run away.
Shen Yu didn't run away, and Li Xiang felt relieved and stood obediently in front of him, with her hands behind her back, like an obedient child.
"Since you agreed to date me, I have to be responsible for you, so I have set a few rules and I hope you can abide by them."
"Wow, even the opening remarks are the same as last time!"
Lixiang became excited. Doesn't this mean that Shen Yujun is destined to lose again? Although midnight has passed, as long as the sun has not come out, he will definitely break through tonight!
"Don't interrupt."
"oh… "
Li Xiang raised her little hand to express that she had something to ask.
"There are no restrictions on what you can say this time. You can say whatever you want!"
"Then I have no problem!"
Li Xiang secretly thought that it was okay, otherwise if Shen Yujun was determined not to talk to her, she would have suffocated to death! Because the two of them had just started dating, she now had many things she wanted to say to him that she couldn't say to him before.
Shen Yu was also dating a girl for the first time, so he was inevitably a little unfamiliar. He thought about it and said:
"Let's first clarify the definition of dating! What do you think dating means?"
"Us? It must be for the purpose of getting married! Lixiang wants to marry Shen Yujun!"
Chen Yu almost choked to death on his saliva.
He rolled his eyes at Li Xiang and said speechlessly: "Your idea is wrong! Communication refers to contact or direct communication between people, reaching a certain understanding of each other, and establishing a specific social relationship between them. Behavior, which includes..."
Lixiang listened carefully at first, but as she listened, her eyes became a little wandering and her mind went blank again.
"...So, what I mean is that we can try to judge whether each other is suitable to be together through this method of communication. Do you understand what I mean?"
Rika shook her head.
"that is… "
Shen Yu didn't know what to say, and finally found a more suitable adjective: "I am now your intern boyfriend, and you are now my intern girlfriend."
"Oh! I know this!"
Lixiang suddenly understood and asked quickly: "Then how do you judge whether you have become a regular employee?"
Shen Yu chuckled and said, "Of course it's up to the other party to judge!"
Li Xiang almost without hesitation immediately opened her arms and wanted to hug Shen Yu again:
"Then I declare now that Shen Yujun is my real lover!"
“…”
You're just kidding!
Chen Yu held down the restless girl to prevent her little hands from getting messy.
"If you ask me to change my position, that's your business. I haven't asked you to change my position yet, so don't mess around."
Li Xiang pursed her lips and asked: "Then how can I become a regular employee..."
"talk later!"
"snort… "
Seeing her greatly shocked look, Shen Yu felt satisfied and continued to talk about the three chapters of the agreement.
"Article 1, you are prohibited from having close physical contact with me, such as touching me, holding hands, hugging, kissing, sleeping together, etc."
"Then what if Mr. Shen Yu wants to touch me?"
"Do you think I'm as perverted as you?"
After hearing the first one, Li Xiang's little face became bitter.
"How can it be like this... People can hold hands when they are in love... Hug is also allowed... Even if kissing is not allowed for the time being, it will be possible soon... Actually, I don't really want to kiss Shen Yujun, but Now that we are lovers, I can reluctantly agree... Of course we can't sleep together... Mr. Shen Yu is indeed the most perverted!"
"Just tell me whether you agree or not."
"Shen Yujun is too domineering..."
Li Xiang wanted to hug him again, but Shen Yu immediately pulled away, preventing her from hugging him.
So she was like a little girl who couldn't catch the balloon. She stamped her feet in grievance and squatted on the ground unhappy. She originally wanted to pick up some small stones to throw, but after searching for a long time, she couldn't find any small stones, so she had to pick them up. Little grass...
Shen Yu came over, but she still didn't look at him and turned her head away with a hum.
Seeing that she looked like a little girl, depressed, angry and funny, he went over to pick up the squatting Lixiang and put it on a bench beside her.
Li Xiang screamed, feeling that Shen Yujun was so strong that he actually moved her squatting body like bricks...
It felt so fun again, and my mood, which had been depressed just now, immediately became happy.
How could a reserved girl forgive him so easily.
Li Xiang threw the grass root in her hand at Chen Yu and snorted: "I won't pay attention to you!"
I feel depressed and helpless. If I continue to make trouble like this, it will be dawn. Do I want to go home and sleep? Sure enough, I have a girlfriend... Intern girlfriends are troublesome.
"How about this? If I make a rule, you can make one too. Is this fair?"
"Really?"
"You decide."
Li Xiang immediately blurted out: "Then the second rule is: Although we are not officially together yet, Shen Yu-kun is not allowed to have other intern girlfriends! There can only be me!"
"Then you are not allowed to have other intern boyfriends."
"I have already been promoted to a regular job by Mr. Shen Yu..."
"Anyway, I haven't made you a regular employee yet. Even if I am, you are not allowed to tell my parents before I make you a regular employee."
If Rika went home and told both parents about Shen Yu's confession to her, her father would probably come to Yokohama to propose marriage tomorrow, let alone the internship period!
"So domineering..."
After reaching a consensus, the two happily settled on this.
Lixiang was very happy. It didn't matter if she didn't hold hands or hug. She was very confident in breaking through this restriction. She had experience. At worst, she would return the frog to the pot and cook it again.
Shen Yu gritted his teeth and said the third rule: "I will not get married before I am... twenty-eight years old!"
After saying that, Shen Yu added with some pride: "You don't need to agree to this. I just have to abide by this rule. If you are dating me and want to marry me as soon as possible, I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible!"
Lixiang opened her small mouth. She wanted to say no, but she was keenly aware of the change in this sentence...
Because Shen Yu told her more than once that she would not get married before the age of thirty, but now it actually became before the age of twenty-eight!
In a few days, wouldn’t he be twenty-six years old? Twenty-four years old? When you turn twenty-two, you can get married to him!
Then his mood suddenly brightened, and he said with a smile: "Then I will wait until Mr. Shen Yu turns twenty-eight."
"I... I won't marry you when I'm twenty-eight."
"No, we are intern lovers now. Shen Yu-kun can't cheat on you! You can't break up with me unilaterally either!"
Shen Yu's face was solemn. Why did he always feel that the three chapters of the agreement were not there at all? Instead, they trapped him tightly...
But fortunately there is the first one...
Every time I look down at her little face, a thought will flash through my mind: 'Being with Li Xiang for a lifetime, watching the sunrise and sunset together every day, listening to the bells and watching the lights together every year, such a life is quite touching... '
It wasn't until he was sure that he liked her that Shen Yu realized that the first feeling of falling in love with someone was panic.
The internship period is also a buffer zone. Shen Yu needs to give himself some time and strive to become a better and stronger person.
With the goal in mind, Shen Yu feels more at ease.
It was getting late, so the two planned to go home.
Li Xiang trotted over, stood next to Shen Yu, and stuffed her little hand into his pocket.
Shen Yu was still thinking about the contract when he suddenly felt a slightly cold and smooth hand coming in, causing his mind to tremble.
"You broke the rules!"
"No..."
Li Xiang said confidently: "We were like this before... We are dating now, so the relationship should be further advanced, so things that could be done before can be done even more now. Mr. Shen Yu must not be unreasonable!"
"Why am I being unreasonable..."
"That's right... If that's the case, then we might as well stop dating for a while, so there's no contract, and I can put my hands in your pockets."
Chen Yu was about to speak but stopped, and he couldn't figure out when it became the right thing for her to put her hand in her pocket...
Lixiang succeeded. Her little hand could be put into his pocket and stay warm with his big hand.
Chen Yu clenched his fists tightly to avoid too much contact with her hands, but Li Xiang was not good at all. Her nimble fingers were like little snakes, slithering between his fingers, trying to get through his fingers. She got in and put her hand in his palm.
The two of them were waiting for a taxi on the side of the road, looking to one side. On the surface, the situation seemed calm, but in fact, in the medium-sized pocket in the middle, their hands were entangled.
Lixiang finally succeeded. She successfully inserted her middle finger into Yu's palm. She felt a wonderful experience of being wrapped in warmth, and her breathing became slightly faster.
Her fingers were slender and soft. Shen Yu squeezed gently, but in the end she was reluctant to let go...
After waiting for a long time, every taxi passing by was filled with passengers, and as time went by, there were fewer and fewer taxis.
"Your Martian-sama doesn't work, we can't go back..."
"Ah... um... maybe Lord Martian is sleeping..."
Li Xiang blushed and secretly contributed another 10,000 points of faith to Master Martian. As expected, they couldn't go back!
It's almost one o'clock in the morning. Due to the jet lag, Li Xiang and Shen Yu are used to the Chinese time zone which is one hour later. In addition, their moods are quite ups and downs today, so they don't feel sleepy now.
The public transportation that can go back to this point has been stopped, and it takes a long time for the night bus to come, and it requires multiple transfers. It is torture to think about it.
If we were to watch the summer fireworks display, it would be okay for the two of us who couldn't sleep to go to the street together. But now as the night goes by, it's getting colder outside. Although Li Xiang didn't say it, Shen Yu could also see the tip of her nose. Frozen red.
"Shen Yujun, what should we do now?"
"I can only look around to see if there is any place to stay."
"Shall we sleep together..."
"This is against the rules!"
Shen Yu is not so stupid. He made a bet with her just now. He doesn't want to drink her foot washing water.
It was unrealistic to expect Li Xiang to find a place to stay. Shen Yu opened the software and looked for hotels, cottages or nearby cabins that could provide accommodation. He checked many hotels in a row, but all of them were sold out.
"It's over, now we have to spend the night in the wild..."
"Then Mr. Shen Yu, can you hold me... I'm so cold..."
"It's already here, and you still want to take advantage of me."
As Shen Yu said this, it could be seen that she was indeed cold, so she softened her heart, opened her coat, and Li Xiang immediately got into his arms sensibly.
Fortunately, the coat is big enough, Shen Yu is tall enough, and Li Xiang is petite. When she hides in his coat, she feels very warm!
Li Xiang also took out her mobile phone to check nearby accommodation reservations, and was pleasantly surprised to find that the store Shen Yu had just visited suddenly had a vacant room available!
"I'm convinced of your luck. Book it quickly, otherwise it will be gone!"
Shen Yu opened his coat. Li Xiang was no longer cold, but he himself was a little cold.
"Uh-huh!"
Li Xiang booked this room without hesitation. Shen Yu took her mobile phone and looked at the map navigation. It was not far from here, and it only took fifteen minutes to walk.
"Aren't you coming out yet?"
"It's so cold!"
"How can I walk with you like this..."
"Then I'll hold you tight, and we can leave together, and Mr. Shen Yu won't be cold anymore..."
With that said, Li Xiang, who was hiding in his coat, stretched out her arms around his waist and hugged him tightly. The feeling of holding him now was much better than the feeling of holding him just now!
Because Shen Yu was wearing a sweater, and her little hands didn't need to be exposed to the cold wind, so she could still hear his heartbeat and smell his scent.
"This is... against the rules!"
"Then let's break the rule this time... Is Mr. Shen Yu still cold?"
"A bit..."
Rika hugged him tighter.
"how about this?"
"Alright... not bad..."
As his heart beat faster, Shen Yu's nose snorted white air, and it turned out that he wasn't cold anymore.
The two of them just cuddled together and walked towards the small hotel in small steps.
Before I knew it, I had arrived at the signboard of the small hotel.
Warm lights were on in the lobby. When I opened the door and walked in, the heater blew on my body, making me feel much more comfortable.
Chen Yu opened her coat, revealing the pear fragrance inside, and saw that her face was as red as a persimmon...
"Shen Yujun..."
"What's wrong?"
Rika looked up at him, then lowered her head shyly.
"We're staying in a double room tonight..."
