The Heartbeat Lies

Chapter 31

Views:

On the way back to school, Fu Yidong taught Yu Nuo a lot of experience in pursuing men.

Yu Nuo was confused by what he heard and silently memorized a few points in his mind.

Back in the dormitory, Liang Xizheng and another roommate were drinking milk tea and watching TV. Yu Nuo greeted them and sat down to rest.

She put on her headphones, turned on her computer, and worked on a PPT for her graduation defense. She flipped through the D drive on her computer and suddenly saw a file named tg-er. This was the recipe she had written for him before, and her finger on the mouse paused.

After being in a trance for a few seconds, I always feel like there is a void in my heart.

The song in the earphones jumped to the one sung by Yan Renzhong. Yu Nuo picked up his phone and pressed the repeat button.

I searched for Chen Yuzheng on Weibo and clicked on his Weibo. He only reposted the official Weibo of tg last time, and his follow list showed 0.

Yu Nuo looked through his past likes and suddenly saw his own photo.

It was during the spring finals, at the Daci Temple in Chengdu. She was standing under a tree with her head slightly tilted upward, tying a red string to a prayer card.

Yu Nuo's heart skipped a beat.

A lot of time had passed and she was a little hesitant to click on the picture.

In fact, Yu Nuo knew that she was not ugly, but she was always not confident about everything about herself. When she first went to college and took photos with others, she was even a little timid and didn't dare to look at the camera. When her roommate raised his mobile phone to take pictures of her, Yu Nuo subconsciously covered her face.

Later, because of Fu Yidong, he took her to try to take some cosplay photos. Yu Nuo gradually returned to normal and no longer resisted others taking pictures of her.

After preparing herself mentally for a few seconds, she clicked on her own photo.

The angle, lighting, and artistic conception are all good, with only a small half of the fair side face revealed.

Yu Nuo breathed a sigh of relief.

I don't know what Chen Yuzheng's reaction would be when he first saw this photo... .

After staring at the page for a few minutes, she moved her finger to the plus sign on the bottom left of the screen and followed his account.

After following them, Yu Nuo felt a little guilty, so he followed a few more people on tg’s official Weibo account, pushing Chen Yuzheng down the follow list.

After turning off his phone, Yu Nuo felt a little distressed, thinking about how to ease the relationship with Chen Yuzheng.

She has been a bit of a loner since she was a child and has never pursued anyone... In this situation, she doesn't know what distance is best to keep from him.

Yu Nuo took out her notebook, bit the tip of the pen, and wrote down the first step that Fu Yidong told her:

1. Take the initiative to find topics to talk to him and show some concern for him. Be a little bit cunning and ask him to help you with something to get closer to you.

Yu Nuo lay on the table and played with the small wind chimes for a while.

After a while, I cheered myself up, opened WeChat, and sent messages to Ultraman, Killer and others: The competition is about to start, remember to eat well recently.

Finally, she opened Chen Yuzheng's chat box, thought about it, and changed the second half of the sentence:

The competition is about to start. Have you been eating well recently

A few minutes later, several killers responded to her enthusiastically, except Chen Yuzheng.

Yu Nuo waited for a while, but still no reply. She felt a little depressed, wondering if he didn't see it, or if he saw it but didn't want to reply...

The phone suddenly vibrated, and Yu Nuo's heart was shaken. She quickly picked it up and looked at it.

Er: 1

Yu Nuo had searched on Baidu last time, and asked despite knowing the answer: What does 1 mean

er:Yes

She thought for a moment: What are you doing? Can you type two more words

er: take a bath

Yu Nuo imagined it in her mind, and her face suddenly became hot. She waved away those charming pictures and quickly replied to him: Then you go ahead and wash yourself. I won’t disturb you for now^ ^

After a while, Chen Yuzheng sent a voice message.

Yu Nuo paused the song, stared at the three-second voice message for a while, and then clicked it.

There was a faint sound of splashing water over there, and Chen Yuzheng's voice was a little unclear, "Why, do you have something else to talk to me about?"

Yu Nuo: It’s okay... You don’t have to go back, just focus on taking a shower.

After sending it, Chen Yuzheng's voice came in the next second. But before Yu Nuo could click on it, he withdrew it.

Yu Nuo waited for a while, and when she was sure that he had no intention of sending her anything else, she turned off her phone.

Although I didn't get to chat with Chen Yuzheng, my mood seemed to... suddenly get better.

Yu Nuo tied her hair up, had dinner, and received a love guide from Fu Yidong.

She clicked in to take a look with a learning attitude. After looking around, she still felt a little hesitant to implement it.

As the intercontinental competition approached, Yu Nuo was afraid of disturbing Chen Yuzheng's training and did not take the initiative to chat with him.

Fast forward to Friday.

All the members of tg went to the airport and took the same flight as og and yld.

Several teams arrived at about the same time. They were all wearing custom-made uniforms and carrying sports backpacks with their team names and IDs printed on their shoulders and backs. WR and TG were both in black and gold, while OG and YLD were in red and white. They were all young men in their twenties, who got off the bus, dragging suitcases. They were a large group, and there were some fans around them asking for autographs and taking photos.

As soon as you enter the airport lobby, you will attract the attention of passers-by.

Before checking in the luggage, Yu Ge came over to TG alone, ignoring the vague looks from others, and said to Yu Nuo: "Give me your ticket."

Yu Nuo: “Hmm?”

"I'll upgrade your cabin."

Yu Nuo was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Xiang Jiajia beside him and said, "No, no, I have already chosen a seat, we can sit together."

Killer listened to the conversation between the brother and sister for a while, and then whispered to Chen Yuzheng: "Tsk tsk, although Fish is usually very cold, he is actually very nice to his sister."

Seeing that he didn't say anything, he bumped Chen Yuzheng's shoulder again: "I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me? Do you have any manners?"

Chen Yuzheng continued playing the game in his hand and said casually: "So, what do you want me to say?"

Killer couldn't stand his behavior, "You're just pretending to be your mother. Don't think I don't know that you're just trying to steal Fish's girl!"

Hearing this, Chen Yuzheng paused and looked at him, "Can you speak louder? Do you want me to find you a speaker?"

Seeing that he didn't deny it, kille climbed up the pole and chuckled twice, "So how's your work on prying the wall going?"

Chen Yuzheng had a blank expression on his face and spat out three words: "Can't pry it open."

...

...

Yu Nuo sat on the chair and checked the power bank, thermos cup, headphone cable, band-aid, and motion sickness medicine in his bag.

A mechanical female voice at the airport played and recorded the announcement over and over again.

Several people from tg have checked their luggage and are preparing to go through security together. Yu Nuo stood up from his chair and was still searching for the sponge earplugs in his bag. He didn't know if he had forgotten to bring them or if he had stuffed them into the suitcase.

This time the long-distance flight to Paris would take more than ten hours, and she was afraid that her tinnitus would come back.

She was a little anxious and fell behind the group. She lowered her head and rummaged through her bag. She didn't notice the situation around her while walking and accidentally bumped into a passerby.

The bag in his hand fell to the ground and Yu Nuo whispered an apology.

The person who was hit frowned, patted his shoulder, and muttered, "Remember to watch when you walk."

After everyone left, Yu Nuo squatted down and picked up the scattered items on the ground one by one.

When I was halfway through picking up the things, I suddenly felt a darkness in front of my eyes.

Chen Yuzheng also remained silent and helped her pick up the things.

He was squatting on one knee, wearing a mask, with the lower half of his face blocked. A small section of his straight nose was exposed, and his black feather-like eyelashes drooped, hiding the emotions in his eyes.

Yu Nuo paused while picking up the things.

There were a few female fans gathered nearby with their cell phones, laughing and taking pictures of Chen Yuzheng.

tgThe others didn't notice what happened later and walked away playing and joking.

After he picked up the things, he handed them to her.

Yu Nuo glanced at him carefully and said, "Thank you."

Chen Yuzheng's eyes were dark. He lifted his eyelids and glanced at her. He propped his knees with his elbows and stood up. "You're welcome."

Feeling his distance, Yu Nuo slowed down, and after a while, she quickened her pace and put everything back into the bag.

Turning my head to look sideways, I saw Chen Yuzheng with his hands in his trouser pockets, having already walked a long way.

After going through security check, there was still more than an hour before boarding.

As a friend of women, killer likes to chat with girls the most. He stays close to Xiang Jiajia and jokes with them.

Ultraman was bored and came over too.

Xiang Jiajia talked about the little star she was chasing recently. After talking for a while, she flipped through the photo and showed it to Yu Nuo: "I think he looks a bit like your brother. What do you think?"

Yu Nuo looked at it for a while, and there really seemed to be some resemblance between their eyebrows and eyes. She nodded: "It seems a little bit."

Killer also thought about it and said, "Why does he look a bit feminine? How does he look like Fish?"

Xiang Jiajia felt that she had nothing in common with him, so she continued to browse Weibo and rolled her eyes at him: "What do you mean by sissy? She looks like a teenager, you know? She is fair and clean, and very lovable. You straight men don't understand."

"No, what's wrong with this era? Is there any hope? Why is your aesthetic sense so distorted? I feel that this little star is not as handsome as Chen Yuzheng."

Killer deliberately glanced at Yu Nuo, "We are teenagers too, aren't we? Nineteen-year-olds, so energetic, so handsome, not effeminate at all, full of masculinity. What star are you chasing after? You might as well chase after our team's AD!"

Xiang Jiajia: “… ”

Killer turned to Yu Nuo and asked: "What do you think, sister Yu Nuo?" Yu Nuo was silent for a while and said: "Um... I think..."

Ultraman listened for a while and couldn't stand it anymore. He shouted, "Brother Sha, you are so disgusting. You have a haggard face and unshaven beard. You call Yu Nuo, a beautiful girl, "sister". Are you a pervert?"

Yu Nuo: “…”

Xiang Jiajia asked: "Nono, don't you have a favorite star?"

Yu Nuo said honestly: "No, I usually watch more anime."

"Ah?" Xiang Jiajia was a little worried. "No wonder you haven't found a boyfriend yet. The girls around me who like anime think that the male protagonists in the virtual world are too perfect, so they don't want to interact with boys in real life."

Yu Nuo: "I'm fine."

Altman took the opportunity to ask: "Do you have someone you like?"

Yu Nuo was silent for two seconds, then nodded, "Yes."

"What??"

Yu Nuo was startled by Ultraman's voice, not knowing why he was so excited: "What's wrong?"

Ultraman felt that he was about to learn a shocking piece of gossip, and asked anxiously, "Who is he?"

Yu Nuo: “…”

"Can you tell me a little bit? Taller, shorter, fatter, or thinner?"

Xiang Jiajia was speechless. She didn't know how a group of men could be so gossipy.

Under their scorching gaze, Yu Nuo was a little confused and felt a little tormented. She hesitated and answered, "Well... a little tall, thin... seems okay, but not fat."

"Then, is it bigger or smaller than you..." Ultraman wanted to continue asking, but Killer pulled him away: "You idiot, your pace is really bad. Get out of the way, let me do it."

Killer sat next to Yu Nuo and looked at her seriously, "Is the guy you like as handsome as Chen Yuzheng?"

Yu Nuo: “Hmm?”

"If not..." Killer hesitated for a moment and said sadly: "I suggest you break up."

Yu Nuo: “… .”

Chen Yuzheng had just come back from smoking a cigarette when Ultraman raised his hand to block him: "Wait, don't sit down yet."

Chen Yuzheng: “?”

Ultraman pointed to a place not far away and said, "Do you see that water dispenser? Go and get me a glass of water."

Chen Yuzheng: “… ”

Killer crossed his legs and said slowly: "After you pour him a glass, don't just stand there. Pour another glass for your brother, Killer."

Chen Yuzheng had a cold face, not knowing what was wrong with them. He pushed Ultraman's hand away and sat down beside them.

Ultraman turned around and said, "Brother Sha, look how arrogant he is. It's so annoying."

Killer echoed him: "I was helping him get some information from someone, but with his attitude, I don't want to say anything."

Chen Yuzheng turned around and said, "What the hell did you say to her?"

Killer laughed: "Tsk, are you so anxious and swearing?"

Ultraman ordered him: "Zheng, pour me a glass of water first, and then I will consider whether to tell you or not."

They were teasing Chen Yuzheng when Yu Nuo came over. Killer and Ultraman shut up at the same time.

Chen Yuzheng suppressed his anger.

Killer asked: "What's wrong?"

Yu Nuo was a little reserved and didn't dare to look them in the eye. "I brought some food. I'll share it with you."

Ultraman was a little surprised: "Do you still have the cookie I ate last time?"

"Yes." Yu Nuo agreed.

Ultraman, Killer, Van and a few others didn't feel ashamed at all to eat the little girl's food, and they all surrounded Yu Nuo.

After they had divided the food to their satisfaction and returned to their seats, Yu Nuo looked up and saw Chen Yuzheng's back as he left.

She endured it, but still spoke out and called him, "Chen Yuzheng."

Chen Yuzheng paused and turned his head.

There were people all around him. Yu Nuo hesitated for a moment, ran two steps, caught up, and said shyly: "Um... I also bought the candy you like, do you want it?"

Chen Yuzheng looked a little strange, and after a few seconds of silence, he said, "No, thank you."

He is ready to leave.

Yu Nuo asked: "What are you going to do?"

Chen Yuzheng glanced at the killer who was peeping from a distance, then returned his gaze to her: "Pour some water."

Yu Nuo said "oh" and asked carefully: "That candy, don't you like it?"

She asked a question, and Chen Yuzheng answered: "I didn't finish the last one." Yu Nuo: "..."

She looked like a panicked little animal, clutching the bag in her arms, and whispered, "Did I make you unhappy?"

Chen Yuzheng raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "What are you unhappy about?"

"It was just two days ago, in the car..." Yu Nuo just called him out on impulse, but since he had said it, he might as well finish it. "I don't mean anything else. It's just that if what I said made you uncomfortable or upset, I... I'm sorry."

Chen Yuzheng thought for two seconds, not quite understanding, and asked Yu Nuo: "What's there to be sorry about?"

"I..." Yu Nuo was tongue-tied.

Chen Yuzheng lowered his eyes and looked at her troubled expression. "I do feel a little uncomfortable."

Yu Nuo was stunned and said again: "I'm sorry."

Chen Yuzheng added: "However, my discomfort may not be the kind of discomfort you think."

Yu Nuo was completely unaware that there were several people watching the excitement from a distance. She looked confused and asked uncertainly, "Then what kind of discomfort do you feel?"

After looking at her for a few seconds, Chen Yuzheng asked, "Are you sure you want me to talk here?"
