The sun sets at dusk, and the afterglow is still warm.
Han Zhou pushed the cart on the way back to school, thinking about his future arrangements.
In terms of efficiency alone, the speed at which one person can make money is still too slow. It would be great if there was a way to trigger the effect of "culinary mastery" without having to be there in person...
In addition to making money, the progress of obtaining points cannot be stopped. This is still the top priority at the moment. I have to do more tasks when I have time to upgrade the status bar to the next level as soon as possible. It's quite busy when I think about it...
While he was thinking, the road ahead was suddenly blocked by a figure.
Raising his eyes slightly, the moment he saw the slender figure of the person and the astonished gazes of passers-by, Han Zhou knew who was in front of him.
It was Wang Lengqiu, whom I had met in the hospital not long ago.
The girl stood on the street after dusk, the soft light of the street lamps shone on her face. She was wearing a slightly loose light pink sweatshirt, but even so, it couldn't hide her slim and well-proportioned figure.
It’s hard to imagine the other person ever being laughed at for being too fat.
"you……"
Before Han Zhou could say anything, Wang Lengqiu asked first, "Are you setting up a stall?"
She looked at the cart in front of Han Zhou with some curiosity in her eyes, and her voice was just like her name, like the early autumn following the end of summer, with a slight coolness, crisp and pleasant.
"Ah."
The other party's attitude was very good, and Han Zhou didn't want to ignore her, so he replied in a cold tone, "I'm working to earn money for my studies. I just closed the stall and was about to go back to eat some steamed bread."
He tried to let Wang Lengqiu know that he was a poor guy who could only afford to eat steamed buns, and to quickly put an end to the strange idea of wanting to fall in love with him, which he didn't know whether he had retained it until now.
"Work-study program is awesome."
Unexpectedly, Wang Lengqiu didn't understand what he meant at all, or maybe he understood but didn't care, and praised him in a flat tone, "I don't know how to work and study."
This tone would sound sarcastic when it comes to other people, but it doesn't give people that feeling when it comes to this girl.
Seeing that the other party had no intention of giving way, Han Zhou had to take over the conversation and said, "It's not that great, after all, we have to eat."
"You haven't eaten yet?" Wang Lengqiu looked at him suspiciously, with a gleam in his eyes, as if he saw some kind of opportunity, "I haven't eaten either."
Do we mean eating the same thing?
Han Zhou was afraid that she would say, "Why don't we go eat together?", so he said calmly, "I ate."
"But you just said that you were going back to eat some steamed buns." Wang Lengqiu stared at him.
"I mean……"
“What is Wowotou?”
“…It’s just steamed buns.”
"Steamed buns?" Wang Lengqiu thought for a moment, "Is it delicious?"
"That depends on what the side dishes are..." Han Zhou was a little surprised and raised his eyebrows, "Have you never eaten it?"
This girl was even stranger than he had imagined.
Of course, it’s not because the other party has never eaten steamed buns.
"Never eaten."
Wang Lengqiu shook his head, as if he felt that it was not good to block the way all the time, so he walked over and stood shoulder to shoulder with him, and said in a matter-of-fact tone, "Then let's go, I'll treat you to some steamed buns."
Han Zhou was stunned and quickly refused: "Thank you, but I have already eaten and I am not hungry now."
"You just said that you had just closed your stall and were going back to eat steamed bread. How could you have time to eat?"
Wang Lengqiu looked directly into Han Zhou's eyes, seeming a little puzzled, "Why did you lie to me?"
She still had no expression on her face, but her pitiful face coupled with these emotionless words immediately made Han Zhou feel a little guilty.
But he had the heart to lie to Gu Zheng, so lying to this strange girl who was not even his friend was nothing, so he insisted: "I really have eaten it."
But he did not forget the girl's purpose. It would be best to get rid of her as soon as possible, even if she was hated.
"You are lying to me." Wang Lengqiu said firmly.
"No."
"Have."
"No."
"Have."
"Not really."
"there must be."
"……All right."
After a brief silence, Han Zhou shrugged and said in a perfunctory tone, "I'm sorry."
There was a sense of impatience in his words, as if to say, "I'm just lying to you, so what can you do about it?"
However, Wang Lengqiu didn't seem to mind his deception at all, nor did he mind his annoying attitude of apology, and shook his head slightly.
"It's okay, then I'll take you to eat steamed buns."
[Daily Task 1 (Wang Lengqiu): Get 10/1 of the target ten sentences of "It's okay", and get point]
Han Zhou was stunned and suddenly had a new understanding of the girl in front of him.
I can't read the atmosphere, or I don't care about it at all. When communicating with people, I just say whatever comes to my mind, and sometimes I say something that people can't understand...
Maybe this is why this girl is considered a psychopath?
But the more this happens, the more headaches I have.
He sighed in his heart, and heard Wang Lengqiu continue to say softly: "Thank you."
It took Han Zhou two seconds to react and realize that this should be a thank you for the umbrella a few days ago.
"You're welcome." He shook his head, intending to end the conversation like this. "I have something else to do, so I'll go back to school first. You can go and do your own thing."
After saying that, he pushed the cart towards the school.
It’s a pity that he can’t run while pushing this thing, otherwise he would have accelerated and run as fast as he could.
"it is good."
Wang Lengqiu didn't seem to realize the meaning of chasing people away in his words, and followed him silently. At first, he stared at the cart for a while, as if considering whether he needed help.
Han Zhou hesitated to speak and finally chose to turn a blind eye.
Fortunately, apart from following him, Wang Lengqiu did not do anything else. He hardly spoke along the way and behaved very well.
But even so, Han Zhou still felt a little uncomfortable. You know, Wang Lengqiu is not only handsome, but also a celebrity in Linda University. As more and more students walked on the road, he found that the eyes looking at him were getting more and more frequent, and most of them were filled with surprise.
However, Wang Lengqiu was completely unaware of this. He stared blankly ahead and suddenly asked, "By the way, do you know where I can buy steamed buns?"
“…In the cafeteria.”
"Then let's go to the cafeteria together later."
"I told you, I have things to do."
Wang Lengqiu thought for two seconds and said, "It's okay. Tell me where your dormitory is and I'll deliver the steamed buns to your dormitory building."

Han Zhou looked at her in surprise and thought to himself, we are all adults, can't you hear the hidden meaning in my words?
"What's wrong?" Wang Lengqiu looked at him in confusion. Perhaps thinking that he didn't quite understand, he patiently explained, "It's okay. My roommate's boyfriend often comes downstairs to the dormitory to bring her food. The dormitory auntie won't say anything."
[Daily Task 3 (Wang Lengqiu): Get 10/1 of the target ten sentences of "It's okay", and get point]
Of course the dorm auntie won't say anything, but the problem is that you are not my girlfriend...
Wang Lengqiu's daily tasks were unexpectedly easy to complete, but Han Zhou just felt a headache: "Can I say that I don't want to eat steamed buns now?"
"Okay, that's okay, I'll bring it to you tomorrow."
[Daily Task 4 (Wang Lengqiu): Get 10/1 of the target ten sentences of "It's okay", and get point]
“…I don’t want to eat steamed buns this month.”
Wang Lengqiu was silent for a moment, took out his phone and looked at the date, then said seriously: "Then I'll send it to you next month."
Han Zhou took a deep breath and said, "Why do you have to give me steamed buns to eat?"
"Because I want to treat you to a meal." Wang Lengqiu asked doubtfully, "What's wrong?"
"nothing."
Han Zhou fell silent.
Who said this guy doesn't like to talk?
After walking for a while, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Um...you don't want to pursue me anyway, do you?"
"Ah."
Wang Lengqiu nodded frankly, "But you said that we can only be together after I become a stickman. Before that, I won't pursue you."
What I meant was that you can pursue me after you turn into a stickman, not that we can be together... forget it.
Han Zhou felt helpless: "Have you always pursued others like this before?"
Wang Lengqiu nodded first, then shook his head and answered the question irrelevantly: "I heard that if you really want to pursue someone, you must be thick-skinned and persist even if you are rejected, so that you will not regret it in the future."
"This is called pestering." Han Zhou suddenly remembered the guy named Liao Xinyu and smiled bitterly, "Maybe you will be hated if you are not careful."
"If you like someone but can't be with him, then it's no different from being hated."
Wang Lengqiu looked into the distance and said something in a very serious tone. Then, as if he suddenly realized something, he asked in confusion, "Do you mean that you hate me?"
“…Not really.”
Han Zhou did not say the word "hate" against his will, because the other party's meaning was already very clear. Even if he made it clear that he hated her, she would still insist on "sticking to her".
"That's good."
Wang Lengqiu retracted his gaze, thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I don't really want to treat you to steamed buns. No... I also want to treat you to steamed buns, but my main purpose is to stay with you for a while longer."
She seemed to regard Han Zhou as a wooden man who didn't understand romance, and went out of her way to explain her motives.
