Chapter 121: Chapter 121: Afraid of Being Overly Sentimental

"Hmm, if it’s not convenient for you, I’ll go pick them up," Zhou Shuyan said.

Lu Youxi couldn’t help but feel a little flustered.

Right now, they seemed almost like a real married couple.

Family elders were coming to visit, discussing who should go to pick them up.

Lu Youxi quickly shook her head, what was she thinking about?

Zhou Shuyan kindly offered to help her, even leaving a spot for her and Lu Youxue on the household register.

And there she was, unwittingly taking advantage of him!

Lu Youxi hurriedly grabbed the cup beside her and downed a big glass of cold water, trying to clear her mind.

It must be the heat of the weather, turning her brain into mush.

After finishing the water, she pretended to be calm and said to Zhou Shuyan, "No need to, I’m not planning to pick them up either. I have other plans."

But after she spoke, she saw Zhou Shuyan still staring at her without blinking.

Lu Youxi involuntarily swallowed, her breathing grew flustered.

"Is it good?" Zhou Shuyan suddenly asked.

Lu Youxi was about to say what’s so tasty about plain water when she heard Zhou Shuyan add, "My water."

Lu Youxi: "!!!"

Why would you use an inversion for that sentence!

After her mental complaint, Lu Youxi realized what Zhou Shuyan meant.

She looked at Zhou Shuyan, puzzled.

Zhou Shuyan didn’t say a word, just smiled, extended his index finger calmly, and pointed to the cup Lu Youxi had just put down.

Lu Youxi followed his gesture and noticed that her water glass was properly placed beside her.

But unfortunately, Zhou Shuyan, whether it was out of annoyance or something else, had put his cup way too close to hers.

As a result, in her flustered state, she took the wrong cup.

She could only blame herself for not even looking before grabbing and drinking from the cup.

"I didn’t know, just grabbed it randomly," Lu Youxi explained with a flushed face, quickly followed by an annoyed and embarrassed complaint, "But why was your cup so close to mine!"

"I thought it was in the way, so I moved it aside, didn’t expect to put it next to yours," Zhou Shuyan explained with a smile.

Lu Youxi thought to herself, on such a large table, how much space do you need that you have to put your water cup next to mine.

Then, Zhou Shuyan tilted his head to look at the two cups placed together.

The ordinary glass cups, which Lu Youxi had carefully scalded with hot water before pouring water since the fly-ridden tavern didn’t seem very hygienic.

Now, Lu Youxi’s cup still had more than half a cup of water, while Zhou Shuyan’s cup had just been emptied by Lu Youxi.

So now, one could easily distinguish which cup belonged to whom.

Zhou Shuyan tilted his head to look.

Lu Youxi, still critiquing his cuteness on the outside in her mind, heard Zhou Shuyan say, "These two cups together look quite a good match."

Lu Youxi: "!!!"

Two ordinary water cups, what kind of match can you see?

Lu Youxi looked at Zhou Shuyan suspiciously, thinking that there seemed to be a hidden meaning in his words, but she didn’t dare to think too deeply, fearing that she might be overthinking it.

Seeing Lu Youxi’s face turning so red she looked like she could explode at any moment, Zhou Shuyan was genuinely afraid that if he continued, the girl might explode right in front of him.

Zhou Shuyan touched the tip of his nose, only now realizing that this action was very similar to Lu Youxi.

He didn’t know when he had picked up the habit of touching his nose from Lu Youxi.

Lu Youxi did find Zhou Shuyan’s move somewhat familiar, but she couldn’t quite place it for the moment.

Mainly because she was used to doing it herself and was no longer aware of this little habit.

"Shall we go for a walk in the Imperial Capital this afternoon?" Zhou Shuyan asked, "You haven’t had a proper tour since you arrived, have you?"

Lu Youxi’s mind was still in a daze, feeling like she had lost a lot of face in front of Zhou Shuyan today, where did she have the guts to continue interacting with him.

At least not for today.

She was afraid that if she continued to be with him, she did not know what face she might lose next.

"I have to go back to school," Lu Youxi said sullenly, "I’ve made plans with my roommate to study in the library."

"That’s fine," Zhou Shuyan nodded, not revealing that Lu Youxi’s excuse was a bit too clumsy.

Zhou Shuyan drove Lu Youxi back to school.

Still, when Lu Youxi returned to her dorm, it was already two forty in the afternoon.

Before she even entered the dormitory, she heard Lu Xiaohui and the other two inside excitedly discussing something.

There were also faint voices about whether to buy something or not.

Lu Youxi opened the dormitory door.

Upon seeing Lu Youxi return, Lu Xiaohui and the other two’s attention was diverted to her again.

Temporarily halting their previous discussion, they swarmed Lu Youxi with excitement.

Lu Youxi, surrounded by the three of them, looked at them puzzled, "What’s going on?"

"I just heard from the girls in dorm 306 that they saw you going on a date with a guy at the school gate this morning," Lu Xiaohui said excitedly.

"The key point is that the guy is super handsome!"

"Yes, it’s just that many people’s phones don’t have camera features, so they couldn’t take a picture. We have no idea how handsome he really is."

Even Mo Yuchun’s eyes were shining with the light of gossip, as she asked with a particularly twinkling gaze, "Who is he? Your husband?"

Lu Youxi didn’t expect others to have seen them, so she nodded along, "Mhm."

Just to avoid suspicion that she was lying about being married, even though Lu Xiaohui and the others had seen her marriage certificate and could testify.

But what if someone thought Lu Xiaohui and the others were also lying for her?

"Wow! How handsome is he really?" Xia Jinqiao grabbed Lu Youxi’s arm, shaking it excitedly.

"Yes!" Lu Xiaohui said, her desire for knowledge stronger than ever, "You must have a photo, right?"

Lu Youxi, surprised, said, "Didn’t I show you the marriage certificate? Doesn’t it have a photo on it?"

"Really?" Lu Xiaohui blinked her eyes, then suddenly slapped her forehead, "I forgot!"

"Geez, I feel like my IQ suddenly isn’t fit for Jing University," Xia Jinqiao said, feeling defeated.

Mo Yuchun raised her hand weakly, "Actually... I didn’t notice either."

"The photo is too small, and when I found out you were married, I was so shocked that I didn’t look at it closely," Lu Xiaohui explained.

"Me too," Xia Jinqiao nodded in agreement, then said with embarrassment, "I was just busy confirming the authenticity of the marriage certificate, I didn’t pay attention to the photo."

Mo Yuchun nodded and did not speak.

Lu Youxi took out the marriage certificate from the drawer again to show them.

The marriage certificate was placed on Lu Youxi’s desk, and Lu Xiaohui and the other two crowded together, wishing they could stick their heads onto the certificate.

"Mother, he is really handsome!"

"If he looks this good in a photo, he must be even more handsome in person!"

"Yes, see, Youxi herself looks better than her photo on the certificate, so her husband must look better than in the photo too."
