Chapter 22 Eating is the most important thing!
"You don't know anything! That's love!"
To be honest, when Chen Chen said those words, Lin Jianlu felt a little uncomfortable.
She instinctively wanted to yell, "What kind of attitude is this! You dare to yell at me for some guy you've only known for two days?!"
But after thinking about it, I decided against it, since he had just broken up with his girlfriend and was feeling very sad.
"Let's go," she said, pursing her lips.
The electric scooter started up again, dusk slowly descended, and the lights of the shops along the street lit up, casting red and blue shadows on the face of the boy in the front seat.
This place is already considered the suburbs. Lin Jianlu remembered that when she was a child, she and Chen Chen came here to play. They could walk through the shops next to them and see vegetable fields in the distance. Bok choy, water spinach, and other leafy greens were neatly arranged at the edge of the fields, which was very pleasing to the eye.
Now all you see are clothing stores, snack shops, and tutoring institutions.
Of course, this isn't to say that it's bad. More buildings mean more people, and her neighborhood might get demolished soon.
She just felt...
Time seems to have flown by.
……
Chen Chen suddenly felt a pair of soft arms wrapped around his waist.
Immediately afterwards, the girl's head rested on his back.
"what?"
"Nothing..."
"Why are you hugging me if you're not doing anything? Are you jealous?"
"Idiot." The girl punched him on the shoulder. "You think you can make me jealous? I'd rather go to the supermarket and buy a bottle of vinegar and drink it than be jealous of you!"
Chen Chen remained silent, because he knew that the guy behind him would soon continue speaking.
The girl's voice did indeed ring out very quickly:
"I just feel... time flies by, it's almost time to be a senior in high school."
"Youth has passed, and the days rush by."
"Who in the ○ God said this?"
"This is what Li Bai in the 'God' said."
"When did Li Bai become a character in ○ God?"
"Hmph! Pesticides can be used, but our ○ God can't?!"
"You idiot, you might as well not buy a house or get married in the future, and just live in the ○ God's Palace!"
"Actually, I don't think that day is far off," Chen Chen said seriously. "When brain-computer interfaces are successfully developed, my daddy Mi will definitely release a ○God brain-computer version, and then I can move in!"
So pure and adorable, what a lovely opening theme!
"What about your wife?"
"Let's move in too."
"What if your wife is a hater of Americans?"
"Hmph! You think I'd marry a Black woman?"
"That's fantastic! I'll never have to worry about you marrying me again!"
"I plan to have two children in the future. A boy will be named Chen Zhongli, and a girl will be named Chen Xiaogong!"
"Xiaogong doesn't sound good, it sounds like a boy's name. How about Chen Ganyu?"
"That's fine, that's good too..."
Chen Chen paused for a moment, then suddenly spoke up: "Shouldn't you be criticizing me at a time like this?"
"It's not my child, call it whatever you want, why should I complain?"
"What if?"
"Even ten thousand is impossible!"
"Then I'll stay single forever."
"Don't you miss your Cheng Xiuxiu anymore?"
Upon hearing these words, Chen Chen felt the soft, warm body lying on his back seem to stiffen for a moment.
Lin Jianlu is really something, both cowardly and eager to speak. Right now, her heart must be pounding, and she's probably thinking, "Oh no, did I make him angry again?"
……
Oh no! Did I make him angry again?
Lin Jianlu thought to himself as he noticed the idiot in front of him remained silent once again.
She quickly turned on the filter, and then she saw this data.
[Mental Health Score: 18/100]
Goodness, it's gone up again?
You heartless bastard! You were just crying your eyes out a moment ago, but now you're all smiles!?
Chen Chen was immediately punched twice in the back.
"Holy crap, what are you doing?! That hurts!"
"It'll hurt you to death!"
Damn it, is this woman crazy? Why isn't she playing by the rules?
"If you hit me again, I'm not going to ride properly!"
As he spoke, Chen Chen deliberately controlled the handlebars, causing the electric scooter to swerve left and right on the road.
"No! No, no, no! I was wrong, I was wrong!!!"
Lin Jianlu was so frightened that she quickly grabbed Chen Chen tightly.
Are you kidding me? She's afraid to ride a bike now because she fell down before, why are you scaring her with something like this?
"Did we really make a mistake?" The car was still swaying back and forth on the downhill non-motorized vehicle lane.
"Ahhhh, I was so wrong, so wrong! Please stop! Please stop!"
"Fine, I'll reluctantly forgive you!"
The car resumed normal operation, and Lin Jianlu also saw that Chen Chen's mental health score had returned to 20.
Sigh, Chen Chen gets his pleasure from teasing girls, that guy has such a twisted sense of humor.
But at least we can communicate now, so it's alright...
"You can talk properly now, can't you?" The blonde girl leaned on Chen Chen's back, her hair gently brushing against his thin school uniform jacket, and said softly, "Look at the way you were just now, it was like you were about to commit suicide for love."
"No, I won't." As night fell, Chen Chen's voice took on a more serious tone in the cold wind. "I will not have any suicidal thoughts until ○God is discontinued."
God is so great, He can even stop Chen Chen from committing suicide!
"Then why do you see it as Xiuxiu's? Even if you stubbornly insist it's love, she already has a boyfriend. What can you do?"
"Why are you bringing this up again now?"
The girl behind him chuckled, "As long as you don't die, I don't care if you're sad or not."
"Actually, I'm still very sad," Chen Chen said softly.
"You know what? From the first moment I saw Cheng Xiuxiu, I always had this strange feeling."
"What illusion?" Lin Jianlu asked softly, gazing at the night scene flashing by.
The car lights came on, the roadside shops gradually thinned out, and the crisp chirping of crickets reached my ears. The evening breeze, carrying the fragrance of early cherry blossoms, brushed past my nose, and the moonlight tonight was exceptionally bright.
"The illusion is that I seem to have perfectly protected her somewhere, at some time, and in some way, even though I have no recollection of it."
"Are you daydreaming? You're the hero, she's the princess, you defeated the dragon and saved her?" Lin Jianlu mocked.
"I'm not quite sure either."
"I remember Liu Qing really likes tarot cards, why don't you go back and ask her to do a reading?"
"I don't believe in ghosts and spirits."
"But the current situation is that she has a boyfriend, so it's not your turn to protect her."
"That's why I'm so heartbroken. She's the one I should be protecting. I'm so unwilling to accept this..."
"Have you ever considered taking her away from me?"
After a moment of silence, Chen Chen spoke softly:
"Can I do it?"
Lin Jianlu smiled but remained silent.
This is the same idiot Chen Chen she knows best, sometimes arrogant to the point of being haughty, sometimes insecure to the point of being cowardly.
But the only thing that never changed was the dejected face that was always placed in front of her, like a defeated puppy with its tail drooping as it returned to its owner.
That's truly shameful.
But once you get used to it, you always feel like something's missing if you don't watch it.
Soon, the electric scooter stopped in front of a cluster of self-built houses.
"Is your house dark again?"
"My dad hasn't come back yet."
"Then come to my house for dinner."
The girl smiled as she got off the bus and extended her delicate white hand to the boy.
The smile then distorted—

You son of a bitch! So you think a meal can solve everything?!
