For such a long time, Wu An and Li Yuhua have not met any boy or girl who could make their heart beat faster.
——Even if it was Chen Luolin, he only had the primitive desire of "craving for her body" and at most had the idea of "having physical relations with her", but he couldn't say that he liked her at all.
On the contrary, they have become more and more skilled at pretending to be a couple in the past few months, and they feel at ease with it. Sometimes you really think they are a couple.
Even... a little happy.
Is it necessary to keep the assumption that "if one of them falls in love with someone else"?
Wu An and Li Yuhua suddenly looked at each other, and then tacitly shifted their gazes elsewhere.
They all felt that the matter of "pretending to be a couple" needed to be discussed.
So much time has passed, and no one has thought about "pretending to be a couple". It seems like something is wrong.
Now that it’s brought up, how about…talk about it?
"Miss, you..."
"Wu An, what do you think..."
The two of them started talking at the same time, and then stopped talking at the same time.
"You speak first."
"You said."
"..."
"..."
"Then I will first..."
"I think……"
"..."
Talk together, then be silent together, talk together again, then be silent again.
Until Wu An took the lead over Li Yuhua.
"Miss, we have been pretending to be a couple for quite some time." He paused, as if hesitating. "Now it seems that everyone in the school thinks that we are in love. Isn't it a bit difficult to back down..."
Li Yuhua pursed her lips, rubbed her hands and said, "Indeed, it is a little difficult."
"So...what should we do?" He looked at "that self" beside him, with a glimmer of expectation in his eyes.
"...I feel..." Wu An took a deep breath, as if he was thinking again, but his thinking yielded no results, so he laughed dryly and said, "It seems there is no other way."
"Yeah!" Li Yuhua also nodded: "Indeed, there is no other way."
Wu An asked carefully: "So, Miss, what would you do if you have someone you like?"
Li Yuhua thought about it carefully and said, "I don't know either."
He looked at Wu An again, blinked and said, "You're hanging around in front of me every day, and I feel like I have no choice at all."
Wu An took another deep breath: "Is that so? That's a bit troublesome."
Li Yuhua nodded, "Yes, yes."
"..."
"..."
The two fell silent again.
But Wu An quickly broke the awkwardness and said, "Why don't we just continue to make do with each other for now?"
Li Yuhua: "It's OK?"
Wu An: "Well, it's okay."
Li Yuhua: "Then, how can we make do?"
Wu An: "…Maintain the status quo?"
Li Yuhua suddenly looked a little disappointed: "Just maintain the status quo."
Perhaps sensing the young lady's disappointment, Wu An suddenly felt guilty and said hastily, "Why don't we just stop pretending and try our best."
Li Yuhua was stunned, not knowing whether it was intentional or not, and asked, "Treat a dying horse as a living one, what do you mean...?"
Wu An: “…”
Ok.
Wu An admitted that the words he said in a hurry were not frank at all. It was not his style at all to go around in such a big detour and not to say it directly.
Why is this happening?
When I thought about this question, my thoughts became extremely confused.
It is clear that my subconscious mind is guiding me.
But I don’t dare to face it.
He looked at "that self" beside him, his heartbeat quickened, and his face felt hot, making the cold wind in the capital city at night no longer feel cold.
Take another deep breath.
Find the rationality you have when doing the questions and analyze your thoughts at this moment.
Then, he raised his head and said to "that self" beside him word by word:
"We've been pretending to be a couple for so long, why don't we make it real?"
It seems that this explanation is not clear enough.
He showed his sincere and focused look when studying, and said:
"That is, let's stop pretending and date!"
Li Yuhua: “Huh?”
#43 Let’s get together first
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Li Yuhua burst into laughter.
It was like a small snickering feeling that the conspiracy had been punished.
She looked at Wu An, pursed her lips, and tried hard to control her happy smile.
The "self" in front of me showed the serious and focused look when studying - to put it bluntly, it looked like he had a droopy face.
But he was serious, and Li Yuhua knew that when Wu An was serious, he would never lie and would put into action what he said.
I just don't know... He said he wouldn't pretend anymore and turned his fake play into reality. Does this count as a confession?
If it was a confession, this guy's way of doing it was not romantic at all.
It was like seeking her opinion.
But it is indeed Wu An's style.
Li Yuhua just chuckled and didn't give a definite answer, which seemed to make Wu An a little impatient.
He said with a straight face: "Miss, I wonder if we should try to date and slowly develop feelings for each other. If it doesn't work, we can talk about it later."
This is a serious inquiry, without sadness or happiness, and certainly without any feeling of nervousness.
It was like asking her whether she wanted to make this agreement.
It's probably a very straight way of asking for a relationship.
Of course, he might not be asking for a relationship, but he might be discussing with her the very important matter of "trying to date".
But even so, Li Yuhua felt very happy.
For more than three months, the eldest lady and Wu An have been pretending to be a couple, but there is always a desire in her heart - why not just become their official partner.
They have been exchanging bodies all the time. Although Wu An has been shouting that he wants to find a solution to the problem of body swapping, it has been so long and there has been no progress at all.
If a solution is not found, the body swapping between the two of them may continue for a lifetime.
Although I don't know when he said: Even if the two of them keep exchanging bodies, they will respect each other's choices.
If they really have to choose someone they like, can they really let go?
Li Yuhua did not think too deeply about this question.
Because she felt it was unnecessary.
If you have to find someone you like, you might as well just like Wu An.
Isn’t this guy Wu An quite likable?
However, before Wu An decided to date her, Li Yuhua had no intention of breaking up their "strategic community" relationship. After all, she should respect each other's choice.
She firmly believed that one day, Wu An would end their "strategic community" relationship, and she just needed to wait quietly.
But I didn't expect that this moment would come so quickly.
And it came so suddenly.
The decision to discuss this topic was actually because of Chen Luolin's "one-night stand".
Thinking about it now, I feel unwilling.
Isn't asking for a relationship supposed to be romantic?
Li Yuhua's confession of hope is the realization that the two of them have gone through countless hardships together.
It could also be that in a beautiful scenery, the boy holds a rose in his hand and makes a romantic confession to her.
Unexpectedly, when talking about hooking up with Chen Luolin, he accidentally turned the topic to "turning fake into real and starting a relationship", as if he was joking.
"So Wu An, are you serious?" Li Yuhua asked him back in an unromantic way.
"Seriously." Wu An nodded, and then said logically: "We pretended to be a couple and made such a big fuss. If everyone knew that we were just pretending, the pressure from public opinion would be very disadvantageous to us."
"So I think it's better for us to just date each other. Feelings can be developed slowly, and then we can live a good life together." He analyzed, and then swallowed his saliva.
"Okay." Li Yuhua nodded in agreement.
It's like agreeing to something so ordinary that it makes people feel that it is not serious, as if they have an illusion.
