Chapter 489: Bridge and Connection
Lu You picked up the woven bamboo basket filled with various fungi and poured half of it into the clear soup pot.
"The remaining half is for you to pour the spicy pot?"
Zhang Zhichuang wiped his sweat, looked at Bi Yangde, and asked, "Can you still eat spicy food?"
Bi Yangde wiped his nose, shook his head and said, "No, I can't stand it anymore."
"Hahaha, noob!"
"Can you eat?"
Zhang Zhichuang also shook his head and said, "I need to take a break for a while."
"Silly!" Bi Yangde rolled his eyes speechlessly.
"Then I'll pour out the whole soup pot."
Oyster mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, chicken leg mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, etc. tumbled into the bubbling soup, immediately stopping the boiling momentum.
Just at this moment, Lu You's cell phone rang.
There is one and only one special attention ringtone.
The message was displayed on the lock screen, and Lu You glanced at it.
[My beloved: I received the message, please reply quickly.]
Lu You put the basket aside and looked back.
Tang Wan raised the phone above her head and shook it, lip-syncing silently.
Use your mobile phone to contact!
Lu You responded with an "OK" gesture and picked up his phone.
[Husband: What’s the matter, my beloved? ]
[My beloved: Give me Bi Yangde’s WeChat ID. ]
Lu You frowned and looked at Bi Yangde with a puzzled expression.
He has sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a high and straight nose, thin and slender lips, and a jawline as sharp as a knife. He is a handsome and chivalrous young man.
The premise is to ignore his philtrum which has turned red from wiping his nose so many times.
Noticing Lu You's gaze, Bi Yangde put the yellow throat that was about to be put into his mouth back into the bowl, and said seriously: "Master, I know I am handsome, but there is no need for you to look at me so directly. I am an upright and decent person, and I will not sell my ass just because you treat me to a hot pot meal."
"Get lost! Even if there's food to eat, it can't stop you from talking."
Lu You buried his head in tapping the screen of his mobile phone, replying to the message.
【husband:?】
[Husband: I don’t think I ever said that you can find a second husband besides me. ]
[My beloved: What are you thinking about? ]
[My beloved: I asked for this for my roommate. ]
[Ai Fei: She said Bi Yangde looks a lot like Yang Guo. ]
[My beloved concubine: It suits her taste very well. ]
Is that Yang Guo?
Lu You recalled several versions of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" in film history. As he said, in terms of appearance alone, Bi Yangde does fit the image of Yang Guo very well.
Especially for some girls who only care about looks, the lethality is definitely at the level of "rule at first sight, lifelong regret".
But in terms of temperament, personality, and growth experience, the two are very different.
A man whose parents are both dead, wandering around the world, being both good and evil, extremely affectionate, surrounded by flowers but loving only one.
A complete family, a happy life, a fair and peaceful person, an introverted personality, and the mother has never held the child's hand.
It’s like two mooncakes of different flavors pressed from the same mold, the same on the outside but completely opposite on the inside.
His divergent thoughts gradually retracted, and Lu You did not give a positive answer.
【Husband: Just two steps away. 】
【Husband: Why doesn’t your roommate come and ask for it himself? 】
[Husband: Isn’t it more sincere to meet face to face? ]
[My beloved: Girls! ]
[My beloved: It’s normal to be a little thin-skinned. ]
Thin-skinned.
Lu You almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
【Husband: Girls, including you? 】
[My beloved: What? ]
[My beloved concubine: You don’t allow me to have extraordinary talents? ]
Sure enough, if a person is shameless, he is invincible.
Tang Wan admitted that she was thick-skinned, and Lu You had nothing to say.
【Husband: Wait a minute. 】
【Husband: Let me ask for my opinion. 】
[My beloved concubine: You should have Bi Yangde’s WeChat account, right? ]
[My beloved: Why don’t you just send it to me? ]
[My beloved concubine: Why are you still asking? ]
【Husband: He said so.】
【Husband: I don’t plan to have a romantic relationship in the next few years. 】
[My beloved: What’s the reason? ]
[Husband: I don’t have time. My studies are my priority.]
Tang Wan's face changed, and her hands holding the phone couldn't help but tighten.
How can this be done?
When dealing with someone, it is not difficult to have the arrows facing each other or oppositely. The former can serve as a bridge, and the latter can be done without interfering with each other.
The difficulty is that the arrows are in the same direction, but one is affectionate and chases behind, while the other is unintentionally walking forward, so they can never become a pair.
Xiao Airen keenly caught the subtle changes in Tang Wan's expression, and his heart suddenly tightened, as if he was back to the two days when he was waiting for the announcement of the college entrance examination results.
"Sister Wanwan, did you...find out what you asked?" Xiao Ai tested cautiously, fearing to hear a bad result.
Tang Wan quickly changed her smile and soothed him softly, "Don't worry, I'm asking you, just be patient."
"Oh, okay." Xiao Airen relaxed a little, but still nervous.
[My beloved: No room for maneuver at all? ]
【Husband: Not necessarily.】
【Husband: You know.】
【Husband: People are always different. 】
[Husband: He just said he has no interest in women.]
[Husband: I started crying and wanted to have a relationship right after that.]
[My beloved: Why don’t you ask quickly!!!]
Then, Tang Wan added three more red, angry yellow faces.
Pretty urgent?
Lu You didn't hesitate, and after a little consideration of his words, he said, "After the prison, do you want a girlfriend?"
These words came out like thunder out of the blue.
Zhang Zhichuang decisively put down his cup and chopsticks, turned his head to look at Bi Yangde, wanting to see his reaction.
Bi Yangde paused for a moment, then picked up a piece of tofu skin dipped in sauce and put it into his mouth, saying calmly: "Are you going to give it to me just because I asked for it?"
"Trafficking in women is a criminal act, I hope you will be careful."
Lu You was too lazy to pay attention to Zhang Zhichuang, and continued to say, "I definitely can't give it to you as a gift. After all, I only have one, and I treasure it very much."
"Then what's the point of asking this question?" Bi Yangde asked puzzledly.
Lu You tapped the back of the phone with his index finger, making a dull sound, and said, "Tang Wan just sent me a message saying that her roommate has a crush on you and thinks you're handsome, and wants your contact information."
“Fuck!” Zhang Zhichuang slapped his thigh and said angrily, “I’m handsome too! Why didn’t you ask for my contact information!”
"You already have Qin Xiyue, but you're still thinking about other girls?"
"How did it become a thought?" Zhang Zhichuang frowned and said seriously, "Someone asked for my contact information because of my charm. I politely and tactfully refused, which showed my deep affection and loyalty. Do you understand or not?"
"When it comes to shamelessness, I'm nowhere near as good as you." Lu You bowed to Zhang Zhichuang and said, "I admit defeat!"
“No, no!” Zhang Zhichuang also responded with a cupped hand, saying, “With more practice, you can do it, too.”
Looking at the two people who were flattering each other insincerely, Bi Yangde lowered his brows and pondered for a while, then asked: "Do you think I should give you this contact information?"
"You're asking me?" Zhang Zhichuang grinned and said, "My opinion is, don't give it!"
"why?"
Zhang Zhichuang raised his hand and put it on Bi Yangde's shoulder, and said in a gentle and persuasive way: "Think about it, in our dormitory, you, me, Brother Lu and Lao Gong, are we all members of the imo national team with full marks?"
Bi Yangde nodded and said, "Then what?"
"Logically, the atmosphere in the dormitory formed by the four of us should be 'turning a deaf ear to the outside world and focusing on reading the books of sages'. But what is the reality? Three of the four are in love, and their minds are all seduced by women. They are completely different from the diligent students who should be! In order to correct this unhealthy trend, I strongly suggest that you set an example and devote yourself to studying, and don't be confused by the mundane world!"
"Haha." Bi Yangde slapped Zhang Zhichuang's hand and sneered, "I also strongly suggest that you buy a new toothbrush on the way back to the dormitory. Otherwise, I'm not sure when your old toothbrush will come into close contact with the sole of my shoe."
"It's too much!"
Bi Yangde no longer paid attention to Zhang Zhichuang, but turned to look at Lu You and said, "Master, what do you think?"
"They want your contact information. Why are you asking me?" Lu You put two slices of duck blood into the clear soup pot and said calmly, "You are the person involved. I am just a router. If you want to give it to me, I will forward it for you. If you don't want to give it to me, I will refuse it for you."
Bi Yangde sighed deeply, his eyebrows twisted into a shape of "八", looking very worried.
"I just want your contact information. I'm not asking you to go on a blind date. What are you hesitating about?" Lu You asked puzzled.
Bi Yangde did not answer, but asked: "Master, how did you and Tang Wan know each other?"
"She was accompanying her mother to get her hair done, and I was walking the cat in a nearby park, so we met by chance."
"You added each other's contact information the first time you met?"
"That's it."
Lu You recalled the first time he met Tang Wan. It was in front of a beef stall in the vegetable market. He was wearing a mask at the time, so Tang Wan didn't recognize him. Later, they met for the second time in the park, and they really got to know each other.
"When you added her, were you mentally prepared for your life to change?"
At this point, Lu You probably guessed what Bi Yangde was struggling with.
On the one hand, his comfort zone is too comfortable and he is unwilling to step out of it. On the other hand, the pressure of the social environment and his beautiful fantasy of love make him long for love.
Lu You took out two pieces of cooked duck blood, kept one piece for himself and put one piece into Bi Yangde's bowl.
"Lao Bi, I find that you think about a lot of things. Life is not static. As time goes by, your age, body, psychology, hobbies, finances, etc. will change, which will affect your life. Let me give you an example. When you were a child, did you have a favorite toy that you swore you would play with for the rest of your life?"
Bi Yangde looked nostalgic and replied, "Yes, it's a four-wheel drive car. I begged my dad for a long time before he agreed to buy it."
"Are you still there now?"
"During the Spring Festival cleaning this year, I threw it away because it took up too much space."
"So, change is always there, it's just a matter of priorities." Lu You picked up the duck blood, bit off half of it, and said, "Don't reject new things because you are afraid of change. Face them bravely and try them boldly. Maybe the new life will be more interesting."
Bi Yangde nodded seriously and said, "I understand."
"But they just asked for your contact information, but you acted like you were going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a marriage certificate. Aren't you being too self-conscious?"
"Uh……"
Bi Yangde felt a little dizzy, but luckily eating hot pot made his whole body hot, so he was not afraid of being discovered. Even if he was discovered, he had an excuse.
"Master, you should forward my WeChat first, don't make others wait anxiously."
"Okay." Lu You picked up his phone and operated it. "I've sent it out. Remember to accept the friend request."
"Okay, thank you, God!"
"It's easy."
Bi Yangde took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and then a new question came to his mind.
"By the way, I still don't know the name of the girl who added me."
Just as Lu You was about to answer, Zhang Zhichuang interrupted, "You already have a WeChat account, why don't you ask yourself?"
I don't know why, but every time Zhang Zhichuang speaks, Bi Yangde has the urge to punch him to death.
"Indeed, it would be better for you to ask yourself rather than get the answer directly from me. It can be regarded as the beginning of your relationship."
Bi Yangde felt much better after hearing Lu You's words.
"Okay, I understand."
