NOVEL WEB Chapter 122
Time came to the next day.
Unlike the usual weekend rest, Bai Yu woke up an hour later today than before. According to her recent habits, she should have gotten up at seven o'clock.
But today, she got up an hour later. Perhaps it was because she slept well last night and her insomnia was relieved.
"Hmm..."
After getting up from the bed, Bai Yu raised her arm, wiped her eyes, then turned her head and looked out the window. Looking at the weather that seemed to be much better than before, she stretched her body.
"Hmm... Wait? Where's Youyu...?!"
After stretching, Bai Yu subconsciously reached into the bed, trying to wake up Youyu... However, all she touched was empty space, with only the quilt and the mattress.
After realizing that Youyu was gone, Bai Yu's lazy spirit suddenly tensed up. She looked at the room she was in with some helplessness, and felt unprecedented panic for a while.
Fortunately, her panic didn't last long, because just before she was about to shout out Youyu's name, the door of the room was pushed open.
"Bai Yu, you're awake."
And it was Youyu who pushed open the door.
"You... Youyu?! How could you..."
"After all, I saw that you looked very tired, so I didn't bother you."
Bai Yu guessed that she wanted to say something, but Youyu simply interrupted her and said:
"Don't say too much, I just made some simple breakfast, hurry up and wash up, and come and eat."
"Otherwise, it will be bad if you get cold."
After hearing Youyu's words, Bai Yu was silent for a while and said:
"... Sorry, Youyu, I should have gotten up earlier. Next time, I won't bother you-"
"Take turns to prepare breakfast, okay? Bai Yu?"
"Ah?"
Looking at Bai Yu's surprised expression, You Yu sighed a little helplessly and said:
"Take turns to prepare breakfast. After all, it is impossible to leave it all to one person. Anyway, I can't accept it."
"Anyway..."
After thinking for a while, You Yu said:
"This is a request I made to you."
"Is it okay?"
"...Okay."
Bai Yu wanted to say something, but after seeing You Yu bring up this sentence, he was choked for a while.
Then, he could only do what You Yu said and went to wash up in the morning.
After seeing Bai Yu leave, You Yu exhaled, then turned around, walked to the side of the dining table and sat down.
Then, he took out the mobile phone that Liu Meng had given him before, clicked on the chat software, and found that in addition to Liu Meng's avatar with a 99+ red dot, there was also a red punctuation mark at the contact.
After clicking there, he saw a flower avatar - that person was Wu Yue.
"It seems that they have exchanged information..."
After a thoughtful look, Youyu did not accept her friend request, nor did he choose to click on Liu Meng's avatar to reply. Instead, he turned off the screen of his phone, put it aside, and began to think:
"There is no need to worry about Liu Meng and Wu Yue... After all, Bai Yu should have said something to them yesterday, so now the only one to pay attention to is... her."
Anyway, just last night, after Bai Yu "talked to herself", Youyu understood the root cause of what she was doing now.
It is very likely that it was to seek a sense of "peace of mind".
In short, to explain it simply, in order not to repeat the same mistakes, let the "tragedy" happen, let everything return to normal as before, and not be tortured by pain, for this, any means can be used.
This also led to... her current actions being a bit extreme, even a bit "stupid".
However, the solution is easy to say. Just let her get rid of this mentality slowly.
After all, it's just the beginning, and there is still room for maneuver.
"..."
"I'm here."
"...Hmm? Ah, Bai Yu, are you done?"
"Hmm."
While thinking, Bai Yu had quickly washed up, and then quickly walked over and sat in front of the dining table.
Then, she looked at the breakfast that Youyu had just made in front of her, took a deep breath, and then started eating at a very fast speed.
"...Huh? Bai Yu, you can actually eat slower... Why are you eating so fast?"
"Wait wait! Stop for a moment!"
Looking at Bai Yu's eating appearance - an exaggerated look that can no longer be called "eating", Youyu quickly interrupted her and asked her to stop.
Then, holdingA tissue was brought to her, and she wiped her mouth with it, and said helplessly:
"Why are you eating so fast...Bai Yu? Is there something urgent to do?"
"...Not really."
After wiping her mouth, Bai Yu was silent for a while, then looked at him and said:
"After all, You Yu, didn't you say that it would be bad if the breakfast got cold?"
"So...I can only wash up as quickly as possible, and then try to finish breakfast."
"You are exaggerating."
Listening to her explanation, You Yu couldn't help but shook his head, then sighed and said:
"Forget it...Then let me make another request to you. If you encounter similar situations in the future...just deal with them as usual."
"Don't be so exaggerated, okay? Bai Yu?"
"Yeah."
Nodding, Bai Yu agreed again.
After watching her start eating breakfast at a normal speed, You Yu breathed a sigh of relief, then lowered his head and started eating breakfast.
...
The breakfast that Youyu made was not much, so it only took ten minutes to finish the breakfast.
Seeing Bai Yu finish breakfast and start to clean up the dishes, Youyu also helped a little, so it was done quickly.
After doing all this... they sat back to their previous positions again.
Because Youyu could see that Bai Yu seemed to have something to say to him.
"Youyu, I want to ask you a question."
"What?"
"You should be sure... you won't run away, right?"
"... You are really outspoken, don't worry, I won't run away."
"Really..."
After hearing Youyu's answer, Baiyu was silent for a while, and then said:
"Youyu, next, around noon, I will take you to see them... to see Wu Yue and Liu Meng."
"Huh? So soon?"
Youyu was a little surprised to hear Baiyu's words.
"Well, after all, I promised them yesterday."
Baiyu nodded.
"Otherwise, they would have come to our door long ago."
"So that's it..."
"But Youyu, don't worry."
Looking at Youyu's thoughtful look, Bai Yu said firmly:
"I will never... hand you over to them."
"..."
This made him even more worried.
"Forget it..."
After sighing, Youyu said:
"Let's go after we're ready at noon."
————
So, time soon came to noon, still the familiar place, the familiar restaurant.
And Wu Yue and Liu Meng, also waited there early.
Although the two of them sat together as Bai Yu requested, they did not have any extra conversations with each other, just lowered their heads and looked at their phones silently.
Until... the two footsteps sounded.
"Youyu!"
After hearing the footsteps approaching them, relying on their powerful "perception ability", they immediately knew who was coming, so they raised their heads happily.
Then what they saw was…
Bai Yu holding You Yu’s hand and walking side by side with him in front of them.
“…”
