The Heartbeat Lies

Chapter 39

Views:

Fu Yidong was on vacation and came to Yu Nuo's house to spend the night.

Yu Nuo hugged his legs with his hands, rested his chin on his knees, and huddled on the edge of the bed in a daze.

After taking a shower, Fu Yidong rolled around on the bed for a few times, hugged the shark that Yu Nuo bought at IKEA two days ago and rubbed it, "Hey, what do you want to say to me? Just say it directly. You have been hesitant for half an hour, and I am getting anxious just looking at you."

Yu Nuo and Fu Yidong sat face to face, biting their lips, "It's just... I told you before that I fell in love with someone, remember?"

"Yes." Fu Yidong also thought of this and asked, "How are you doing now?"

"I think, let's pick a day and confess my feelings to him..."

Fu Yidong was getting so annoyed by Yu Nuo's lukewarm temper that he asked, "Why don't you go? Why don't you take action?"

"It's just these two days, but before I confess, I still want to talk to you and ask for your opinion."

Fu Yidong was curious: "What?"

Yu Nuo found it a little difficult to speak and kept thinking about the words in his mind.

All along, Fu Yidong had openly expressed his love and admiration for Chen Yuzheng in front of her, but she had a boyfriend, so when Yu Nuo realized that she liked Chen Yuzheng, she didn't struggle too much and let herself sink.

But at the beginning, Yu Nuo got to know Chen Yuzheng because of Fu Yidong, and later on, they gradually had some interactions.

Therefore, Yu Nuo was not sure whether her pursuit of Chen Yuzheng would make Fu Yidong feel uncomfortable. Regardless of whether her confession was successful or not, she had to tell Fu Yidong in advance.

Yu Nuo spoke slowly: "It's... the person I like."

"Yeah." Fu Yidong waited for her to speak.

"You know him, too."

Fu Yidong was a little surprised: "I know him? Who is he?"

Yu Nuo didn't dare to look at her expression. He lowered his eyes and said the name with a hard heart, "Chen Yuzheng."

The room was silent for a full minute. The impact of this name was like an atomic bomb, which made Fu Yidong's mind go blank for a moment.

Seeing her like this, Yu Nuo immediately said, "Dong Dong, if you mind, or don't understand, or can't accept it, I can wait for a while until you are no longer angry, then I will tell you."

Fu Yidong: “… ... ... ... ”

She was a little confused: "No, why are you telling me now?"

Yu Nuo felt guilty and apologized quietly: "I'm sorry..."

She also felt that she was indeed very selfish in this matter. Because she was afraid of being opposed from the beginning, she deliberately concealed the fact that the younger brother was Chen Yuzheng from Fu Yidong, thinking of delaying it.

However, after returning from Paris, Yu Nuo was completely sure that she had fallen in love with Chen Yuzheng.

Not just like, but... she wanted to possess him.

Maybe Yu Nuo was too greedy. He used to think that being able to watch Chen Yuzheng from afar was much better than becoming strangers after she confessed her love to him and was rejected.

She didn't know when her feelings towards Chen Yuzheng had gradually deteriorated. She wanted much more than she thought.

Fu Yidong lay on the shark pillow and took a rest, slowly digesting the shocking news he had just learned. Seeing Yu Nuo's depressed expression, he realized that he had overreacted just now, and hurriedly said: "Well, Nuo Nuo, I don't mean to blame you, I'm just a little shocked. Why do you like him? When did it start?"

Yu Nuo shook his head: "I don't know either..."

Maybe it started from the time when Chen Yuzheng took her to watch the sunset, or even earlier, when he quietly accompanied her crying outside the bathroom... When Yu Nuo realized it, she had already fallen in love with him.

Fu Yidong murmured: "My best friend actually wants to seduce my idol. This world is too mysterious..."

Yu Nuo said carefully: "I'm sorry I didn't make it clear to you earlier."

"What's there to be sorry about? I like Chen Yuzheng, but not the kind of love that wants to be in a relationship." Fu Yidong didn't know how to comment on this matter. "But you are quite courageous. Chen Yuzheng looks difficult to deal with. Are you sure?"

Yu Nuo was also a little worried, staring blankly ahead, "I'm not sure..."

"Then you are still half colleagues now. If this doesn't work out, you will see each other every day in the future. How embarrassing!"

"My probation period at tg is only three months, and it's almost two months now. I did it to help my roommate. Actually, after I graduate, I'm not sure if I will work there in the future. After all, my brother doesn't really support it..."

"Yeah, and your brother." Fu Yidong suddenly thought of this, "If your brother knew that Chen Yuzheng had got you, he would definitely blow up the TG's nest!"

Yu Nuo smiled bitterly: "How can it be so exaggerated?"

Fu Yidong asked: "So, do you want to tell your brother in advance about your love for Chen Yuzheng?"

The road ahead was uncertain, and Yu Nuo hadn't considered this yet, so he asked, "Do you think I should say it?"

Fu Yidong slapped his thigh and sat up from the bed, "Of course I can't tell you. If I tell you, will your brother agree?"

She analyzed it carefully for Yu Nuo: "Let's not talk about the fact that Chen Yuzheng is your brother's biggest competitor now. He doesn't like Chen Yuzheng anyway. He may not even agree to your simple relationship." Yu Nuo thought it made sense, but was still embarrassed: "Even if I don't tell him now, he will definitely know it later."

"Why are you thinking so far ahead?" Fu Yidong tapped her wooden head. "Think carefully about how to win Chen Yuzheng over first. You can think about it later when things are stable."

Yu Nuo was also very worried, "Do you think having a girlfriend will affect professional players' performance? Will it distract them or something..."

This question made Fu Yidong ponder for a while.

She knew some people, so she knew a lot of inside information. She promised Yu Nuo solemnly: "As long as Chen Yuzheng concentrates on training and has a relationship during his rest time, it's actually okay, right? Doesn't TG have a rule that team members can't have relationships?"

Yu Nuo thought about it and said, "It seems not."

"That's it, isn't it? Besides, doesn't Van have a girlfriend? He didn't make any mistakes or anything."

After sharing their thoughts, late at night, Fu Yidong pulled Yu Nuo into bed to watch a movie.

The movie was starred by Han Geng. The heroine in the story, on her wedding day, suddenly took the emcee's microphone and confessed her love to a man she had been secretly in love with for ten years in front of the whole audience.

That man is the best man in this wedding.

The whole audience was in an uproar.

Fu Yidong wiped his tears and said to Yu Nuo: "You see, this heroine is too hesitant. Hesitation will lead to failure. If you don't say you like her earlier, you will regret it for the rest of your life."

Yu Nuo deeply agreed and nodded.

The next day, tg's artists finished editing the Intercontinental Championship documentary.

In order to avoid being criticized, I had to edit out most of Chen Yuzheng's inhumane interview. But for the sake of program effect, I still kept the segment about Zhou Dang's girlfriend in the easter egg.

As expected, half an hour after the tg official blog released the news, some e-sports accounts successively cut out the part in the easter egg where Chen Yuzheng cue Zhou Dang's naughty words.

Before this, the most talked about thing in the circle was the wonderful story of Zhou Dang and Shu Jia. When the news of their marriage was announced, almost all the commentators, players, and hosts of League of Legends sent their blessings.

I didn't expect that after so long, this meme could be brought up again, and Weibo was extremely lively for a while. What made this feast reach its peak was that at 7 o'clock in the evening, Zhou Dang, who had not posted on Weibo for thousands of years, actually retweeted the official Weibo of tg.

.wan:? //Esports Club: The Intercontinental Championship documentary is here~ There is an interview easter egg at the end#花散花#

Afterwards, Shujia also commented below with an emoji of someone covering their face and crying.

The comments below all exploded:

I see, LPL's ADC sexual preferences are consistent over the years

Dang: I think you can do it too

Swing: wdnmd

xsl, this is a fucking dream linkage, my youth is back

Zhou Dang, look at what a precedent you have set! Now all the ADs in LPL are thinking about picking up girls!

er: I also want to find a girlfriend who is three years older than me. Can I win the world championship this way

Dangdang!! He actually interacted with Shujia! They are so sweet again, CP fans are having a party tonight!!

The night before, Fu Yidong and Yu Nuo chatted at home until dawn and slept until around six in the afternoon.

After getting up, the two of them huddled in the living room, ordered a takeout and ate it. Naturally, they came across these Weibo posts while playing with their phones.

Having just stayed up all night, Yu Nuo looked a little tired. When she first saw it, she didn't react until Fu Yidong bumped her shoulder and said, "Did Chen Yuzheng say this to you?"

Yu Nuo was still reading the comments under Zhou Dang's Weibo, a little confused: "What?"

"Are you stupid? Chen Yuzheng is obviously not talking nonsense, he is hinting at you! Do you understand?"

"Hinting at me?" Yu Nuo was a beat slower and pointed at himself.

"Of course!" Fu Yidong tried to hold back his heartbreak and reminded her, "Think about it carefully. How much older are you than him?"

"Three years old..." Yu Nuo reacted and suddenly widened his eyes, still a little bit unbelieving, "Really? Could it be that he just said it casually..."

Fu Yidong was so annoyed by her stubbornness that his eyes almost rolled up to the sky. He waved his hand and said, "Forget it. Let me go to the corner and be sad for a while. I am still here worrying about you. I might as well worry about myself."

...

...

Yu Nuo clicked on Chen Yuzheng’s interview video and listened to it again.

Fu Yidong looked at the forum for a while, and suddenly suggested to her: "Why don't you go and confess to him right now?"

Yu Nuo was stunned for a moment, "Now?"

She hadn't prepared herself mentally for this at all.

"Then it's not a good idea for you to drag it on like this. Didn't you tell me yesterday that you were going to confess to him in the next two days? Since Chen Yuzheng has said so, just go for it. The sooner you die, the sooner you will be reborn!"

Seeing that Yu Nuo was still hesitating, Fu Yidong stretched out his hand and said, "Give me your phone and I'll help you send it."

Yu Nuo quickly said: "No, no, I'll do this myself."

"Then hurry up."

"Don't worry, let me think about it."

Another hour passed, Yu Nuo imagined thousands of scenarios of her confession to Chen Yuzheng in her mind, and also thought about the consequences of being rejected. She held her phone in her hands, but did not dare to click on his profile picture.

Fu Yidong was almost exhausted, "Is it that difficult? It's just a confession, no big deal!"

The summer in Shanghai was very hot. Even the air conditioner was not turned on at home, but Yu Nuo felt her hands and feet were cold. She thought for a long time and asked Fu Yidong again: "Should I really send it now?"

Fu Yidong nodded affirmatively and handed her his phone. "I just found a matchmaking website and calculated your horoscope. It says today is your auspicious day. You must seize the opportunity."

Yu Nuo: “…”

She read the comments on the marriage website several times and was somewhat persuaded by Fu Yidong. She was so excited that she sent a message to Chen Yuzheng:

Yu Nuo: Are you there

Er: 1

Yu Nuo hesitated for a long time: Have you had dinner

He replied quickly.

er: ate

Yu Nuo: So what are you doing now

Er: Chatting

Yu Nuo: With whom

er: you

Yu Nuo was discouraged again. He really couldn't think of how to start. He turned to Fu Yidong and said, "Why don't we just forget about it today? Let me think about it for a few more days."

Fu Yidong opened NetEase Cloud Music and played a song called "Good Days". "Go ahead with this BGM!"

Seeing that she hadn't responded yet, Chen Yuzheng sent another message:

Er: What’s the matter

Yu Nuo thought he might be crazy, so he hardened his heart and sent him the message: Um... I saw your interview... .

er:

er: What interview

Yu Nuo shamelessly said to Fu Yidong after repeated urging: That’s it, you said you admire Zhou Dang for finding a girlfriend who is three years older than him...

The other party showed that they were typing, but there was no reply.

His heart was beating so hard that it was about to jump out of his chest. Yu Nuo looked at Fu Yidong for help: "It's over. Will I seem to be being too sentimental by saying this?"

Fu Yidong was puzzled: "What do you mean by being sentimental? Any normal person would think wrongly, especially since you two were kind of ambiguous to begin with. I think he was very obvious."

Yu Nuo was still worried: "Maybe... we are overthinking it?"

"Bullshit!" Fu Yidong said angrily, "We are three years apart, how can there be so many coincidences?"

Yu Nuo glanced at her phone, feeling a little desperate, "He hasn't replied to me yet..."

Fu Yidong guessed: "Maybe he's secretly having fun over there."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Nuo's WeChat call interface rang. Fu Yidong was sharp-eyed and said hurriedly: "Hey, it's Chen Yuzheng's call, answer it quickly!!"

Yu Nuo stood up from the sofa, holding the phone, and said helplessly: "Should I answer it?"

"Hurry up and answer it!"

As the two of them were talking, the WeChat call ended. Then, the phone rang again, and it was Chen Yuzheng's number.

Yu Nuo didn't even wear slippers. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, walking around barefoot on the ground, "It's over. What should I say to him later?"

Fu Yidong snatched her phone, pressed the answer button, and put it to her ear.

Both parties were silent.

He didn't say anything, and Yu Nuo didn't know how to start the conversation.

After a long while, Chen Yuzheng laughed and seemed a little curious: "Sister, were you hinting at something just now?"

"Hmm? Not implying..."

Yu Nuo's hands and feet were cold just now, but now he had a fever all over his body, his face was red as if blood was about to drip out, and smoke was coming out of his head.

Fu Yidong jumped onto the sofa, dancing and lip-syncing to her: "Say it, say it, I like you."

Yu Nuo made a hushing gesture to her.

In this situation, the arrow is on the string and has to be shot. After brewing for more than ten seconds, Yu Nuo closed his eyes and said in one go: "That is... If you also want to find a girlfriend who is three years older than you, my birthday is still a few days away, so I am still 22 years old, just three years older than you. If possible, can you consider me?"

After he finished speaking, the whole world was quiet.

Chen Yuzheng probably didn't expect her to be so direct, so he remained silent. Yu Nuo was afraid of being rejected, so he immediately said, "You can think about it carefully, you don't have to reply to me now, you can tell me when you have thought it through."

After saying that, she hung up the phone immediately without waiting for Chen Yuzheng's reaction. Her hands were shaking, and she took a deep breath and calmed down for a while. Fu Yidong gave her a thumbs up: "You finally broke the window paper, how is it, how is his reaction?"

Yu Nuo: "I don't know, he didn't seem to say anything, so I hung up the phone."

Fu Yidong: “… … ..”

Just then, the phone rang again. Yu Nuo was in a panic and directly pressed the button to reject the call.

Fu Yidong was anxious: "Tsk, why did you hang up again?"

"I, I stutter a little when I'm nervous." Yu Nuo was a little panicked, "I'm afraid my voice will be too shaky and I'll make a fool of myself."

On WeChat.

er:

Yu Nuo: Sorry, I’m a little inconvenient right now... Or you can just message me directly

Oh, I thought you regretted it.

Yu Nuo typed carefully: I don't regret it. I thought about it carefully before I came to you.

Er: Do you like me

Seeing that there was no way back, Yu Nuo looked at these four words and had to admit frankly: Yes, I like you.

er: I like it very much. Tell me about it.

How do you say this

For a moment, Yu Nuo was a little stumped. She was not good at sweet talk, and now her mind was blank and her thoughts were confused.

She turned to Fu Yidong and asked, "What should I do?"

Fu Yidong, a veteran in the love field, could tell at a glance what Chen Yuzheng was planning. Only the little fool Yu Nuo was still worried.

Because Chen Yuzheng was her idol, Fu Yidong was kind enough not to ruin his fun. He sighed and said to Yu Nuo, "Just do your best. Come on."

Yu Nuo squatted in the corner, thinking hard for a long time, and replied to him dryly:

That is, I like you very much... I don’t know how to say it, but I am very happy when I am with you.

After sending this message, Yu Nuo felt so nervous that he was about to vomit. He stared at the phone, afraid of missing anything.

The time in the upper left corner jumped minute by minute, and the other party finally replied with a message slowly -

er: Since you like me so much, I'll give you some time tomorrow.

Yu Nuo: What

er: Think of a way on your own to seduce me.
