Chapter 68 Lu Ren and Qing Mei
Chapter 68 Lu Ren and Qing Mei
Lu Ren wasn't initially interested in this old-fashioned machine, but after getting his hands on it, he found it quite novel as he played with it.
He added Jiang Yueying and the young lady on Feixin and even created a group chat for the four of them.
Shen Yaoxing: You bought a new phone?
Shen Yaoxing: [Smiling]
Shen Yaoxing changed the group name to "Midsummer Cicadas".
Ji Liguang: Where are you?
Ji Liguang: I'm coming to play with you guys!
Ji Liguang: Oh, so you didn't even call me when you went out! @Lu Ren
Lord of Demon Flame: I'm on Pine Nut Street. Want to have lunch together?
Lord of Demon Flames: I know a really good restaurant (
Lord of Demon Flames: [A wild emoji]
Lu Ren glanced at Jiang Yueying beside him. This little one was indeed a dwarf in real life, but a giant on the internet.
Jiang Yueying noticed Lu Ren's gaze, quickly covered her phone screen, looking wary so he wouldn't see, and then typed rapidly on the screen.
When Lu Youhe saw that they could create group chats, he immediately insisted on buying a smartphone too, and finally chose a cheaper model.
She wasn't very familiar with using smartphones, so Lu Ren helped her with everything.
She also asked Lu Ren to add another person to her list.
Lu Ren asked warily, "Your friend? Male or female?"
"It's Kui!"
"Xiao Kui...?"
Upon hearing the name again, Lu Ren suddenly fell silent. Lu Youhe secretly observed his expression, then changed the subject, saying:
"Xiao Kui is still working a summer job there, Lu Ren. I want to go visit her."
"Go ahead and go. Do you have enough money?"
"Enough, do you...want to come with me?"
Lu Ren slowly shook his head. He still hadn't figured out how to meet her, the woman who used to live across the street from them, who was Lu Ren and his siblings' childhood sweetheart, and who was also his... ex-girlfriend.
Seeing that he was losing interest, Lu Youhe walked away. She was quite familiar with this area because she had worked there before.
Only Lu Ren and Jiang Yueying remained at the scene. Lu Ren discussed with her whether they should go to the arcade, order two cups of milk tea, and play to their hearts' content for a whole morning.
"I want to go, I want to go!"
Jiang Yueying was overjoyed. Although she didn't want to admit it, in a way, she really liked Lu Ren!
Suddenly, she paused for a moment.
Did I really become this familiar with this guy?
"Let's go then. You lead the way; I'm not very familiar with this area."
"Hurry, hurry!"
However, at this moment, a woman suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
"Hey? Xiaoying? What are you doing here? Is this your friend?"
Lu Ren followed along for a while, and finally decided to pretend to bump into him by chance?
Jiang Yueying was also shocked: "You, why, why are you out here... no, why are you here?"
The woman took off her sunglasses and removed a bit of her mask, revealing a bright smile.
No wonder she's Xiaoying's older sister. If Jiang Yueying could become a star when she grows up, then this person can become a star right now. She has an oval face, peach blossom eyes, a tall figure, and a fashionable style.
It just feels a bit familiar, like I've seen it somewhere before?
"Oh? Are you Lu Ren? I'm Jiang Yueying's older sister, Jiang He. I've been hearing Yueying talk about you a lot lately."
The little one beside him protested, "Often? What do you mean, often? I don't!"
Jiang, Lu Ren remembered where he had seen her before. This person seemed to be the female singer that Jiang Yueying followed on Langke. So Jiang Yueying's sister really was a star.
"Oh, so you're this child's older sister? I'm Lu Ren, her friend."
Jiang He paused for a moment, then covered her mouth and chuckled, "What do you mean by 'this child'? You two must be around the same age, right?"
Lu Ren smiled but didn't respond. It had been almost two months since he transmigrated. Rather than transmigrating, it was more like his past life, a dream that was fading away every day.
Therefore, my perception of age, mindset, and cognitive boundaries are somewhat blurred. Sometimes I feel that sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls are no different from children, while other times I feel that they are actually my peers.
Jiang He put her mask and sunglasses back on and said, "I was on my way to work when I saw what looked like a moon shadow on the roadside. I thought I was seeing things, but it really was a moon shadow."
Jiang Yueying showed no mercy and immediately retorted, "Your company isn't even in this direction from home."
stare--
Jiang Yueying: "!!" A chill suddenly ran down her spine, and she cried out!
She looked up shakily and saw Jiang He smiling at her, her lips slightly parted as she slowly said:
"By the way, Jiang Yueying, I heard from You Rong and the others that Xiao Lu seems to be... more than just your friend, right?"
In an instant, the surrounding street noises vanished as if they had been sucked away. Jiang Yueying lowered her head, cold sweat pouring down her forehead, her pupils dilated, and her whole body trembled.
Seeing his sister's panicked state, Jiang He couldn't help but smile beneath his mask, and it seemed as if demonic horns were slowly sprouting from his head.
"Xiaoying is 17 now. Her family won't stop her from dating. Even if she gets a boyfriend, she should bring him home to visit."
Her sister's voice, like the whisper of a demon, echoed in her ears, making her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave despite the sweltering summer heat.
"Oh my, I really didn't expect that our little Yueying would start dating. She's grown up so fast. Her parents will be so worried when they find out..."
"Hello, Sister Jiang!"
Jiang He was still preparing her big move when she was interrupted by the boy next to her. Lu Ren bowed to Jiang He in a loud voice.
"Huh? Wh-what?"
She, who was still persecuting her younger sister, was taken aback and looked at the boy bowing to her.
Lu Ren said with a serious expression:
"Xiaoying and I have been in a relationship for a month now, and we are indeed in the getting-to-know-each-other stage. However, I promise that we will always prioritize our studies, and I guarantee that this relationship will remain pure. Before we get the approval of Xiaoying's parents, there will absolutely be no inappropriate physical contact or actions. Please rest assured, sister!"
Jiang He was somewhat stunned. Wow, he had such a commanding presence, and he remained so calm even when meeting the woman's elders. He seemed quite responsible.
Although he is a young boy of this age, he shows a strong sense of masculinity!
Jiang Yueying was a little taken aback. This kind of serious and meticulous boy was the type she was least able to deal with.
"Please rest assured, sister!" Lu Ren bowed again.
"Ahem! Well, well, I'm not that strict. Physical contact and stuff, after all, you two are dating, right? Occasionally, a little hug or a kiss is perfectly normal, haha..."
What exactly am I saying?
Jiang Yueying, standing to the side, blushed deeply and let out a squeal like a small animal: "Ah! Kiss, kiss!"
Jiang He tried to salvage the situation: "Of course, but you're all in your adolescence, and it's normal to be impulsive sometimes. I understand boys this age, but you should still be careful. However, if you really can't help it..."
Damn it, what am I even trying to say?
Jiang coughed twice more, then concluded definitively, "However, Xiao Lu seems like a serious and responsible young man, and I believe in you!"
Lu Ren realized that this woman was probably like Ji Liguang, the kind of beautiful but naive type.
He bowed slightly. "Thank you, sister. If I have time, I will come to your residence for a formal visit."
"Okay, let's do it tomorrow then."
"...Huh?"
Isn't it just social etiquette, simply being polite?
Lu Ren forced a smile and said, "Well, during this period, I will be training with Miss Yaoxing and the others."
"Oh right, Tsukikage mentioned that. How about we visit again after training is over?"
Now that things had come to this, Lu Ren could no longer refuse, and said:
"Okay, okay, I'll visit you when I have the holiday."
Lu Ren thought, "I should break up with Jiang Yueying before that day comes."
