Chen Yuzheng studied her and looked directly into her eyes.

Yu Nuo didn't dare to move, just stared at him blankly.

Chen Yuzheng thought for a while, as if he was preparing a speech, then paused, and finally, frowned, "Forget it."

Yu Nuo: “Ah?”

Chen Yuzheng: "I'm going to get some water."

... ...

Killer sat in his seat, watching Chen Yuzheng walking towards him from a distance with a sullen face and holding water. Suddenly, a sense of satisfaction that only a winner can have rose from the bottom of his heart.

He took a sip with satisfaction and sighed in a pretentious manner, "Oh, the water at this airport is so sweet. It's the sweetest water I've ever tasted in my life. It tastes good! It's damn delicious!"

Chen Yuzheng laughed angrily. He held back for a moment and said, "Can you tell me now?"

killer played dumb: "Ah, what did you say?"

Chen Yuzheng said calmly: "What did you ask Yu Nuo?"

Killer continued to tease him in a nonchalant manner: "Guess."

Chen Yuzheng: "I guess your mother is fucked."

"... ... ... "

Killer almost choked, patted his chest, and asked Ultraman fearfully: "Why are you so irritable today? Is my uncle here? He is being mean to me! Manman, are you going to do anything about it?"

Ultraman sighed and patted Chen Yuzheng on the shoulder: "What should we do? What do you think we should do?"

Chen Yuzheng turned around and asked: "What did she say to you?"

Ultraman's face was serious: "I'm not afraid to tell you that Yu Nuo already has someone he likes. He's taller and more handsome than you."

“… … .”

Ultraman slammed his teammates: "I told you to do it sooner, but you were still complaining about us meddling in your business. Now you see, it's all fucking over."

Chen Yuzheng: "Who said she has someone she likes?"

Killer continued: "She said so herself."

Ultraman: "Forget it, Brother Sha, let's not talk about it anymore. Chen Yuzheng's heart is about to be pierced. If we continue, we won't be able to play the game."

When it was time for security check, everyone packed up and boarded the plane.

Xiang Jiajia took the boarding pass, found the seat, and asked Yu Nuo: "Nuo Nuo, we two will sit here, do you want to sit inside or by the aisle?"

Yu Nuo held onto the seat and glanced at the side secretly. Killer, Ultraman, and Chen Yuzheng were putting away their luggage, and they happened to be sitting next to them.

Yu Nuo: "Can I sit outside?"

Nodding to Jia Jia: "Okay, then I'll sit in the middle."

Yu Nuo sat down at his seat.

She had just found her earbuds and put them in her pocket.

Before the plane took off, the broadcast reminded all passengers to turn off their cell phones, put away the tray tables, and fasten their seat belts. Yu Nuo was a little nervous and put on his earplugs.

After packing up, Yu Nuo took a deep breath and waited for the plane to take off. The people around her were busy with their own things. She glanced at the side and saw Chen Yuzheng sitting at the outermost position.

He was wearing an eye mask, his arms crossed and folded across his chest, and the brim of his baseball cap was pulled down, almost covering his entire face. He had entered a dormant state.

There was only a small aisle between the two of them, and Yu Nuo couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart.

She withdrew her gaze and began to daydream.

...

...

I didn't sleep well on the plane because I encountered some turbulence. After a while, the flight attendant came out with a food cart and asked the passengers in a low voice what they needed.

There was a slight gurgling sound as the roller slid along. Chen Yuzheng took off his eye mask, squinted his eyes, and adjusted to the bright light. He sat up a little.

The stewardess just walked over and bent down slightly: "Hello, do you need anything to drink?"

Chen Yuzheng thought for a while and asked sleepily, "Is there any juice?"

"Yes, please wait a moment."

The stewardess took a cup, poured a glass of juice and handed it to him.

Chen Yuzheng: “Thank you.”

Ultraman said beside him: "Give me a cup of coffee, thank you."

The flight attendant patiently agreed: "Okay, wait a moment."

His head began to ache slightly, so Chen Yuzheng took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket, put it in his mouth, and waited for it to melt slowly.

His face looked grim and his eyes were blue. Ultraman saw this and knew that he had hypoglycemia again. He came over and asked with concern, "Are you okay? Do you want to eat something?"

Chen Yuzheng didn't want to talk and shook his head.

The plate was pulled down, and he held the cup in his hand, tapping the rim of the cup with his fingers, staring at the juice swaying slightly inside.

In the last spring finals, after losing two games in a row, he was scolded by the coach in the locker room. Chen Yuzheng was surrounded by low pressure and sat alone on the sofa. Someone also bought him a glass of juice like this.

Her face was red, and there was sweat on her forehead from the intense exercise. When she looked at him, she felt a little embarrassed, took out glucose and juice from the bag, and carefully asked him which one he wanted to drink.

Chen Yuzheng shook the cup and turned his head to look at Yu Nuo.

She wore white earplugs, a fluffy blanket on her knees, tore a piece of bread and fed it to her mouth. She was flipping through the business magazine on the plane with great interest.

Noticing the gaze, Yu Nuo turned around and met Chen Yuzheng's eyes.

He didn't look away.

Yu Nuo was stunned for a moment, looked around, and confirmed that Chen Yuzheng was looking at him. Ying Jiajia was sleeping next to him, and Yu Nuo was afraid of disturbing her, so he opened his mouth and asked with his mouth: "What's wrong?"

Chen Yuzheng picked up his phone, opened WeChat, and sent her a message:

Er: What do you eat

The two of them were separated by an aisle. Yu Nuo picked up the packaging bag, held it up to show Chen Yuzheng, and then typed a reply to him: Eating bread

er: I'm hungry

Yu Nuo looked at him again: I have something else, what do you want to eat

er: take a look

Yu Nuo lifted the blanket, stood up, tiptoed to take the backpack containing food from the top compartment, unzipped it, and took a photo for Chen Yuzheng.

He looked at them and picked one at random.

Yu Nuo took out the strawberry-flavored bread, leaned forward and handed it to Chen Yuzheng.

He slowly tore open the package, put it in his mouth and took a bite. His phone vibrated and he received a WeChat message from Yu Nuo: Is it delicious

The irritability after waking up seemed to have dissipated a little. Chen Yuzheng was in a good mood and replied to her:

good.

Yu Nuo: I have two more, shall I give them both to you

Er: No thanks

Just after replying to Yu Nuo's message, Chen Yuzheng raised his eyes from the screen and glanced at Ultraman.

He coughed, feeling a little embarrassed for being caught peeking, "Well, you continue, I'll just take a look, just casually."

Chen Yuzheng ignored him and turned off his phone.

Ultraman deliberately lowered his voice, "You two are quite interesting."

Seeing that Chen Yuzheng still ignored him, Altman was a little angry: "I just asked you if you wanted to eat something, didn't you say no?"

Chen Yuzheng spoke, his voice a little hoarse, with his usual impatience: "Can you say less?"

Ultraman: “?”

Chen Yuzheng: "It makes my head hurt."

Ultraman: “… … …”

Ultraman was choked for a few seconds, gnashing his teeth and saying, "Okay, I won't say anything. It's just the life of a despised Manzi."

It took fourteen hours for the plane to arrive in Paris from Shanghai, and the organizers chartered a car to pick them up to the hotel.

In the car, Xiaoying told them roughly about the itinerary for the past two days.

This intercontinental competition involves 12 teams from three regions in Asia.

On the first day, there are six round-robin matches of B1. After the B01 match, the teams will be ranked first, second and third according to their division points. The first place will directly enter the finals; the second and third places will compete for a place in the finals. The finals will adopt a BO5 system. The four teams from the two winning divisions will discuss and decide the order of appearance by their coaches. The division that gets 3 points first will win the championship.

Before the Intercontinental Championship started, they had to get up early the next day to shoot a promotional video, so time was very tight.

After sitting down on the flight for more than ten hours, Yu Nuo's face looked very strange.

On the way to the hotel, Yu Nuo couldn't help it, so he asked the driver to stop the car and got out to vomit twice.

Xiang Jiajia followed her, patted her on the back, and asked worriedly, "Are you okay, Nuonuo?"

Yu Nuo suppressed his nausea, squatted on the side of the road, took the paper she handed over, wiped his mouth, and forced a smile: "It's okay."

Not far away, a car full of people were waiting for her. Yu Nuo was afraid of wasting their time, so she said to Xiang Jiajia, "Jiajia, can you help me get my bag and phone? You guys go back first. I can't take a car now. Wait for me to calm down, and then take a taxi back to the hotel."

"It's okay. I'll accompany you."

Xiang Jiajia ran to the car, and Killer looked back through the window, a little worried: "Is Yu Nuo okay?"

Xiang Jiajia walked to the back, found the bag on Yu Nuo's seat, and picked it up. "It's okay. She said she can't take a car now. You go to the hotel first. I'll walk with her for a while, and then take a taxi to the hotel."

Qi Yanan disagreed: "No, it's so late, it's not safe for you two girls to be outside alone."

Chen Yuzheng suddenly said, "Give it to me."

Xiang Jiajia stood there, stunned for a moment: "Ah? What?"

He stood up from his seat, "I'll go down and accompany her."

...

...

Yu Nuo swallowed her saliva to suppress the acid in her esophagus. There was someone standing next to her, and she subconsciously thought it was Xiang Jiajia.

When she looked up, Chen Yuzheng was looking down at her.

Yu Nuo was stunned for a moment, then stood up on his knees, "Why is it you... Where is Jia Jia?"

"You..." Chen Yuzheng frowned and handed her a bottle of water, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Yu Nuo smiled bitterly and explained, "I just felt a little carsick after getting off the plane. I'll be fine after a while."

As the lights come on, the streets of Paris at night are very charming.

The city is like a gorgeous city that never sleeps, with brightly lit streets and some monuments hung with shining neon lights.

Yu Nuo drank a few sips of water, walked slowly for a while, and felt much better after being blown by the wind. She was attracted by the beautiful night view and became energetic. She couldn't help but stop and took a few photos with her mobile phone.

Chen Yuzheng was waiting on the side. After watching her take the photo, he was a little amused: "You girls all like taking photos so much?"

"Hmm?" Yu Nuo was raising his arm to take a picture of the carousel in the distance. Hearing this, he turned around and smiled shyly, "It's quite nice... I want to take a picture to record it."

Suddenly, I remembered Fu Yidong's teachings: be a little clever, get him to do me a favor and narrow the distance between the two of you.

She hesitated for a while, pursed her lips, and asked nervously: "Chen Yuzheng, can you take a picture for me?"

He spread his hands.

Yu Nuo handed him the phone and said, "Please help me take a picture of the carousel as well. Thank you."

She ran to the side of the road, turned around to find the carousel, raised her hand, and made a "yeah" sign next to her face.

She seemed to like making this gesture every time she took photos. When they met for the first time, she went on stage and mistook him for her. She had the same posture and smile.

Chen Yuzheng looked at her in the camera of his mobile phone and raised the corners of his mouth.

After a while, Yu Nuo ran over excitedly, "How is it?"

He said casually, "Very good."

Yu Nuo took the phone expectantly, opened the album and checked the finished product he had just taken.

After looking at a few pictures, the smile on the corner of his mouth gradually froze.

Chen Yuzheng didn't know how to take the photo just now. Yu Nuo felt that he was very short in the photo, and his body proportions seemed to be 50-50. The smile on his face was also very silly, and in one photo, he didn't even open his eyes.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Chen Yuzheng raised his eyebrows, "Why, are you not satisfied?"

Yu Nuo couldn't bear to hit him, so he raised his head and said, "... ...How about I take a picture for you and show you how to do it?"

She adjusted the filter and walked two steps away.

Chen Yuzheng, wearing a baseball cap, posed and leaned against the tree trunk waiting for her.

He has always been like this, except when he was playing games, he was always lazy and had no energy, no posture when standing or sitting. He blended in with the lazy style of this city.

Yu Nuo squatted down and found a particularly good angle for Chen Yuzheng.

After taking the photo, Yu Nuo trotted over and handed him the phone like he was presenting a treasure: "Take a look?"

Chen Yuzheng held her phone, swiped it left and right, looked at a few photos of herself, and her expression was as calm as ever.

Yu Nuo asked expectantly, "What do you think?"

Chen Yuzheng said as a matter of course: "He's quite handsome."

Yu Nuo: “… ... ... ”

She couldn't help but ask: "Don't you think I made your legs look long?" Chen Yuzheng looked a little confused: "My legs are naturally long."

Yu Nuo: “… .”

"All right."

She was frustrated and didn't plan to count on him anymore. She adjusted the direction of the camera and raised the phone to face herself.

Selfies are still more reliable.

Yu Nuo had just adjusted his expression when a face suddenly appeared behind the camera and Chen Yuzheng leaned forward with his head tilted.

Yu Nuo's hands trembled as she pressed the camera button. She was a little panicked: "What are you doing?"

"Taking a selfie with you."

Yu Nuo said "oh". After thinking for a while, her ears turned red, she lowered her head and whispered a few words.

Chen Yuzheng didn't hear clearly: "What?"

Yu Nuo mustered up his courage and said in a louder voice: "The photo just now... was not taken well."

He doesn't speak.

She looked at him cautiously: "Can I have another one?"

...

...

Yu Nuo was a bit taller than him, so she stood on tiptoe. She didn't dare to get too close to him, so she kept a distance.

Chen Yuzheng was standing a little behind her and seemed to have noticed the height difference.

Seeing that she had already made up her expression, he leaned forward slightly, holding the phone in his arm a little further away, and put his head next to hers.

From a distance, it looked like half of his body was stuck to Yu Nuo.

There was still a hint of shampoo scent in his hair and clothes, and the clean scent surrounded her in an instant.

Yu Nuo's breathing became lighter as he looked at the intimate scene of the two of them on the camera of his mobile phone. He nervously grabbed the hem of his clothes, his eyes widened, and he even forgot to smile.

Click, click, Chen Yuzheng took three photos in a row.

Until he stood up, Yu Nuo still maintained the same posture, not daring to move.

He lowered his head, flipped through the selfie they had just taken, and smiled: "Sister, your expression seems a little stiff."

Yu Nuo quickly snatched the phone away, not daring to look at it any more, "It's okay, it's okay, that's all."

It was almost ten o'clock when he returned to the hotel. After taking his passport and checking in, Chen Yuzheng returned to his room.

Ultraman was lying on the bed watching a show.

There was a sound of dripping water coming from the bathroom.

When Chen Yuzheng came out of the shower, Altman noticed that he seemed to be in a good mood, so he asked, "What did you do with Yu Nuo? Why are you here so late?"

He lazily replied, "Date."

Ultraman was shocked by his shameless remarks.

Chen Yuzheng sat on the edge of the bed, wiping his short hair with a white towel.

Ultraman threw away his phone, crawled over and asked: "Yu Nuo already has someone he likes, but you're still dating him? You have a good mentality!"

Chen Yuzheng shook off the water droplets on his hair, picked up the hair dryer, and said indifferently: "We are not together again."

Ultraman was speechless and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Watching him blow dry his hair, Ultraman thought for a long time and finally asked, "What if we are together?"

Chen Yuzheng's moral bottom line has always been extremely low. He didn't think about it at all, and still had that indifferent expression: "We are together but not married."

Ultraman: “… … …”

He leaned over and said, "Chen Yuzheng, do you not want to be criticized anymore?"

Before, everyone was mostly teasing. Although several people in the base often made jokes about him and Yu Nuo, no one took it seriously. They just teased them for fun.

Ultraman didn't expect Chen Yuzheng to be serious, and couldn't help but remind him: "Yu Nuo is Fish's sister."

Chen Yuzheng threw away the hair dryer, leaned over to the bed, picked up his charging phone and took a look, "So?"

"You know how much Yu Ge's fans hate you. Can you wake up? Or let's just forget it. Think about it, Fish is already a successful professional benchmark in the circle, and we can't even catch up with him. And look at you? You are just a nobody who just debuted. You haven't won a championship, you don't have fans, and you don't make as much money as your brother. You have nothing. What can you use to pursue his sister? With your cheap sincerity?"

"I still have some dignity."

Chen Yuzheng asked him indifferently, "Don't you know that I was the most handsome boy on campus in high school?"

Ultraman: “… … …”

Although I knew he was shameless, I didn't expect him to be so shameless. Ultraman felt that Chen Yuzheng would push him to the limit every time.

He was speechless for a while, and when he spoke again, his tone was a little reluctant, "Zheng, relying on beauty won't last long. You have to know that when beauty fades, love fades. What's the use of face? Besides, Renyu is also handsome. Do you think Yu Nuo hasn't seen enough handsome guys? What's wrong with being the campus hunk in high school? You are totally uncompetitive."

Ultraman was anxious and angry, and kept trying to persuade Chen Yuzheng for a long time until his mouth was dry. Then he found that Chen Yuzheng was browsing Tieba on his mobile phone, looking at the game equipment, and didn't listen to a word he said.

He suddenly felt that all his worries were in vain. Ultraman was a little disappointed and asked, "Hey, Chen Yuzheng, do you really like Yu Nuo so much?"

Chen Yuzheng leaned on the bedside table, not even raising his eyes, and replied lazily: "Isn't this quite obvious?"
