Forced into a romantic relationship

Chapter 232 Who taught you to fall in love like this?
The sun sets at dusk, and the afterglow is still warm.

Han Zhou pushed the trolley on the way back to school, thinking about his future arrangements.

In terms of efficiency alone, it is still too slow for one person to make money by setting up a stall. It would be great if there was a way to trigger the "Culinary Proficiency" effect without being physically present...

In addition to making money, the progress of earning points cannot be stopped. This matter is still the top priority at the moment. I have to complete more tasks when I have time and upgrade the status bar to the next level as soon as possible. It is quite busy when I think about it. of……

While thinking, the road ahead was suddenly blocked by a figure.

Raising his eyes slightly, Han Zhou knew who was standing in front of him the moment he saw the figure's slender figure and the stunning eyes of passers-by.

It was Wang Lengqiu who he had just met in the hospital not long ago.

The girl stood in the street after dusk, with the soft light of the street lamp shining on her face. She was wearing a slightly oversized light pink sweatshirt, but even so, she could not block her slender figure.

It’s hard to imagine that the other person was ever ridiculed for being too fat.

"you……"

Before Han Zhou could say anything, Wang Lengqiu took the lead and asked, "Are you setting up a stall?"

She looked at the trolley in front of Han Zhou with curious eyes. Her voice was just like her name, like the early autumn that followed after the end of summer, with a slight coolness, crisp and pleasant.

"Ah."

The other party's attitude was very good, and Han Zhou could not take her for granted. He replied in a cold tone, "Work-study student, I just closed the stall and am about to go back to eat cornbread."

He tried to let Wang Lengqiu know that he was a poor man who could only afford to eat cornbread, and to put an end to the strange idea of ​​falling in love with him that he didn't know whether he still retained it to this day.

“The work-study program is amazing.”

Unexpectedly, Wang Lengqiu didn't understand what he meant at all, or maybe he understood but didn't care. He praised in a calm tone, "I don't know how to work-study."

This kind of tone sounds very sinister to other people, but it doesn't feel that way to this girl.

Seeing that the other party had no intention of giving way, Han Zhou had no choice but to take over the conversation and said: "It's not that powerful, after all, he has to eat."

"Have you not eaten yet?" Wang Lengqiu looked at him doubtfully, with a flash of light in his eyes, as if he saw some kind of opportunity, "I haven't eaten either."

Do we mean the same thing when we say eating...

Han Zhou was afraid that she would say "How about we go eat together" next, so he said without changing his expression: "I will eat."

"But you just made it clear that you were going back to eat cornbread." Wang Lengqiu stared at him.

"I mean……"

"What is Wo Wo Tou?"

"...It's just steamed buns."

"Steamed buns?" Wang Lengqiu thought for a while, "Is it delicious?"

"It 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 stranger than he imagined.

Of course, it's not because the other party has never eaten steamed buns.

"I haven't eaten."

Wang Lengqiu shook his head, as if he felt that it was not good to keep blocking the road, so he came over and stood side by side with him, and said in a matter-of-fact tone, "Let's go then, I'll treat you to a steamed bun."

Han Zhou was stunned and quickly refused: "Thank you, but I have already eaten and I am not hungry now."

"You just said clearly that you just closed the stall and were going to go back to eat steamed buns. How can you have time to eat?"

Wang Lengqiu looked directly into Han Zhou's eyes, seemingly puzzled, "Why did you lie to me?"

She was still expressionless, but her pitiful face coupled with these emotionless words immediately made Han Zhou feel a little guilty.

However, he could bear to deceive Gu Zheng. It was nothing to deceive this strange girl who was not even a friend, so he insisted: "I have really eaten it."

He has not forgotten the purpose of this girl. It is best to send her away quickly, even if she is disliked, it doesn't matter.

"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 is a sense of impatience in his words that I am just lying to you, so what can you do?

However, Wang Lengqiu didn't seem to mind his deception at all, nor did he mind his annoying apology attitude, and shook his head gently.

"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 'It doesn't matter', and you can get [-] point]

Han Zhou was stunned and suddenly had a new understanding of the girl in front of him.

You can't understand the atmosphere, or you don't care about the atmosphere at all. When communicating with others, you just talk about whatever comes to mind, and sometimes you will say a few words that are incomprehensible...

Maybe this is why this girl is considered a psycho?

But the more this happens, the more troublesome it becomes.

He sighed in his heart and heard Wang Lengqiu continue to say softly: "Thank you."

It took Han Zhou two seconds to react and realized 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 just like that, "I still have something to do, so I'm going back to school first. You can go and do your own thing."

After saying that, he pushed the cart and walked towards the school.

It's a pity that he can't run while pushing this thing, otherwise he will speed up and run wildly.

"it is good."

Wang Lengqiu didn't seem to hear 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 he was considering whether he needed help.

Han Zhou hesitated to speak, and finally chose to turn a blind eye.

Fortunately, other than following him, Wang Lengqiu did not do anything else. He hardly spoke along the way and acted very calm.

But even so, Han Zhou still felt a little uncomfortable. You must know that Wang Lengqiu is not only outstanding in appearance, but also a celebrity in the university. As more and more students were on the road, he found that the eyes on him were becoming more and more intensive. , mostly with surprise.

However, Wang Lengqiu was completely unaware of this, staring ahead blankly, and suddenly asked: "By the way, do you know where I can buy steamed buns?"

"...It's available in the cafeteria."

"Then let's go to the cafeteria together later."

"I told you, I have something to do."

Wang Lengqiu thought for two seconds: "It doesn't matter. Then tell me the location of your dormitory, and I will send the buns downstairs to your dormitory."

[Daily Task 2 (Wang Lengqiu): Get 10/1 of the target ten sentences 'It doesn't matter', and you can get [-] point]

Han Zhou looked at her in surprise, thinking that we are all adults now, couldn't you hear what I was saying?

"What's wrong?" Wang Lengqiu looked at him in confusion, perhaps thinking that he didn't quite understand, so he patiently explained, "It's okay, my roommate's boyfriend often comes downstairs to bring her food, and the dormitory aunt Won’t say anything.”

[Daily Task 3 (Wang Lengqiu): Get 10/1 of the target ten sentences 'It doesn't matter', and you can get [-] point]

Of course the dormitory aunt won't say anything. The problem is that you are not my girlfriend either...

Wang Lengqiu's daily tasks were surprisingly easy to complete, but Han Zhou only felt a headache: "Can I say that I don't want to eat steamed buns now?"

"Okay, it's okay, I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

[Daily Task 4 (Wang Lengqiu): Get 10/1 of the target ten sentences 'It doesn't matter', and you can 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, and said seriously: "Then I will deliver it to you next month."

Han Zhou took a deep breath: "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?"

"It's 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...don't you still want to pursue me?"

"Ah."

Wang Lengqiu nodded honestly, "But you said we can't be together until I turn into a stickman. Before that, I won't pursue you."

What I'm talking about is obviously that you can pursue me after you become a stickman, not 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 inappropriately: "I heard people say that if you really want to pursue someone, you must be thick-skinned and persevere even if you are rejected, so that you won't regret it in the future."

"This is called stalking." Han Zhou suddenly thought of the guy named Liao Xinyu and said with a bitter smile, "Maybe he will be hated."

"If you like someone but can't be with them, it's no different than being hated."

Wang Lengqiu looked into the distance and said something in a very serious tone. Then he seemed to suddenly realize something and asked doubtfully, "Do you mean you hate me?"

"...It doesn't really count."

Han Zhou did not say the word "hate" against her will, because the other party's meaning was already obvious. Even if she made it clear that she hated her, she would still persist in "stalking her."

"That's good."

Wang Lengqiu withdrew his gaze, thought for a while and said, "Actually, I don't really want to treat you to a steamed bun, no... I want to treat you to it too, but the main purpose is to stay with you for a while."

She seemed to regard Han Zhou as an incomprehensible idiot, so she went out of her way to explain her motives.

"..."

I'm very curious about who taught you to fall in love like this...

Han Zhou twitched the corner of his mouth.

To be honest, he really couldn't understand the girl in front of him.

He was very sure that Wang Lengqiu didn't really like him, and he could rule out love at first sight. Otherwise, with the calm attitude shown by the other party, he would have confessed to him directly when they first met.

It's even more impossible to suddenly fall in love because of some kind of opportunity. The two of them have never met a few times. The only opportunity that can be called an opportunity is helping to hold the dog for a while, but it is impossible for the other party to have a crush on him just because of this. Bar?

If that was the case, let alone falling in love with this guy, he wouldn't even dare to be friends. Han Zhou didn't hate people who liked animals, but he couldn't accept it if he liked animals to the point of forgetting himself.

So……

Why on earth does this guy have to pursue me?
Han Zhou was puzzled. Fortunately, his words that day had an effect. This girl was really preparing to become a stickman. She would not come to harass him before. Today's meeting was just an accident, not the other person's. Do it intentionally.

After heaving a sigh of relief, he suddenly became worried——

You must know that Wang Lengqiu's thoughts cannot be inferred using ordinary people's thinking. Just like the mushroom refers to the umbrella, this stick figure may also have some specific meaning.

Head on fire... If this meaning represents some kind of self-harm, wouldn't it affect the girl's physical and mental health?

Judging from this guy's "stalker" concept of love, it's not impossible to do something like self-harm.

Han Zhou didn't want to cause irreparable harm to a girl just because of his unintentional words, so he organized his words.

"I said...Senior Sister Wang Lengqiu."

"Call me Qiuqiu, or Qiuqiu." Wang Lengqiu corrected seriously.

Han Zhou pretended not to hear and asked tentatively: "Can you tell me what the stick figure means?"

Wang Lengqiu seemed a little confused about what he meant, and gave him a strange look: "A stickman is a stickman."

There was a kind of confusion in his eyes: "You are a stickman yourself, don't you understand?"

Han Zhou didn't want to dwell on this topic, so he took a deep breath and said, "Is there any terrible process to become a stickman?"

"Horrible process...what do you mean?"

"Such as applying potassium chlorate and manganese dioxide to your head..."

"Need not."

Wang Lengqiu seemed to understand what he meant, shook his head and said, "It's not scary."

"Is that dangerous?" Han Zhou asked.

"It's not dangerous, it just takes a while."

"That's good." Han Zhou felt relieved and continued to ask, "How long does it usually take?"

"I don't know much about this. After all, I have never been a stickman and have no corresponding experience."

Wang Lengqiu said something serious and incomprehensible. She was silent for a moment. She seemed to suddenly react and asked in confusion, "Those questions just now...are you worried about me?"

"Just out of curiosity." Han Zhou said calmly.

"Oh."

[Daily Task 1 (Wang Lengqiu): Capture the target’s expression change 10/1 ten times, and you will get [-] point]

Han Zhou was stunned, and subconsciously turned to look at the girl beside him, but did not see any expression on her face.

But since the status bar has prompted it, it means that the other party's expression has indeed changed just now...

While thinking about it, Wang Lengqiu suddenly pointed in a direction, with a somewhat excited tone: "There is roasted squab over there."

Han Zhou followed her line of sight and saw a shop selling roasted pigeon. He asked curiously, "Do you like this?"

"I don't like it." Wang Lengqiu shook his head, "But I like pigeons, white pigeons."

Your ability to jump in thinking is quite unique...

The corner of Han Zhou's mouth twitched. It's not that he can't make the connection. It's just that thinking of roasted squab and pigeon is the same as pointing at a beef shop and saying excitedly that he likes cows, or pointing at a dog meat shop and saying excitedly that he likes dogs. , inevitably gives people a strange feeling.

"I quite like it too," he said.

White doves symbolized peace in previous lives, but this meaning does not seem to exist in this world.

"really?"

"Fake……"

Sensing the joy in Wang Lengqiu's tone, Han Zhou felt a chill in his heart. Just as he was about to deny it, he heard the other party expectantly say, "I've always wanted to go to Qingyuan Square to feed the pigeons, but no one goes with me. Can you go with me?" "

In fact, I am better at flying pigeons...

Han Zhou smiled bitterly and declined: "I'm sorry, I may not have much time during this time."

"Is it because you want to set up a stall?" Wang Lengqiu lowered his head and looked at the cart.

Han Zhou was overjoyed, but he didn't expect that the other party had even thought up a reason for him, and said seriously, "Well, I have to set up a stall after class, and I don't have time to do anything else."

"What are you selling?" Wang Lengqiu was curious.

"Starch sausage."

"How much does one cost?"

"Two dollars."

"How much do you sell in a day?"

Han Zhou was stunned for a moment, vaguely feeling something was wrong, and hesitantly said: "About five hundred..."

Wang Lengqiu nodded and took out his cell phone from his sweater pocket.

"Then I bought all these in advance. Can you accompany me to feed the pigeons tomorrow?"
