Going home for the New Year during the winter break, I encountered a cool school girl on the high-sp

Chapter 242 Something is happening (Please read it~)

Before he was with Xiaoxi, Chen Chen often stayed alone in the dormitory or his rented house on weekends.

It lasts all day.

I didn't feel like I was missing anything at that time.

But now, even though he was still alone, he clearly felt that something crucial seemed to be missing in his life.

An indescribable loneliness, like a vine, quietly grows and spreads in my heart, and cannot be shaken off.

Chen Chen shook his head helplessly, secretly laughing at himself for being pretentious.

"I just went out to buy some groceries, how could I run away?"

Chen Chen was immersed in thought.

Suddenly, the phone on the table vibrated crisply.

"Maybe Xiaoxi and the others have finished buying groceries."

Chen Chen quickly picked up his phone and opened the screen, but what caught his eye was not Lin Muxi's dialog box, but Zhou Yuyang's avatar and new message.

[Chen Ergou, are you there? ]

Chen Chen was slightly disappointed.

Then he tapped his fingers quickly on the screen and replied:
[Don't ask if I'm still here. Unless something unexpected happens, I'll be here for the next few decades.]

After a while, Zhou Yuyang replied with a simple string of ellipsis: [……]

Seeing this, Chen Chen felt a little confused and then sent another message:
What's wrong? What happened?

Based on Chen Chen's understanding of Zhou Yuyang, under normal circumstances, he would not ask whether he was there so randomly.

So at this moment, Zhou Yuyang probably encountered some situation.

"What could it be?"

Chen Chen was extremely curious.

After a long while, news from Zhou Yuyang finally arrived.

[Nothing, I just wanted to ask if you were there.]

Chen Chen stared at the message and thought to himself that based on his understanding of Zhou Yuyang, things must not be that simple.

So, he quickly typed a line of words on the screen and sent it over:

[Are we brothers now? Just say what you want to say!]

Not long after, Zhou Yuyang's reply popped up:
[Is Qin Yao with you? ]

Chen Chen's eyes fell on the mobile phone screen. When he saw these words, he was slightly stunned, and countless speculations instantly surged in his mind.

The corners of his lips curled up slightly, with a hint of teasing and curiosity, and he tapped his fingers lightly on the screen and replied:

[Are you okay?]

He originally thought that there was no possibility of development between Zhou Yuyang and Qin Yao.

After all, it can be seen from Xiaoxi's mouth that there is little hope between them.

I didn't expect that Zhou Yuyang would move so quickly. I don't know how far he has progressed now.

Zhou Yuyang seemed to hesitate for a moment, and after a long while, the news came again:

[No, there's nothing wrong. I just want to talk to her about something.]

Chen Chen didn't believe what he said. His smile deepened as he continued to reply:
[Come on, stop pretending. What's the matter that requires you to go to her right now? Tell me the truth, how far have you two progressed?]

After sending the message, Chen Chen leaned back in his chair, staring at the screen of his mobile phone, thinking about the current relationship between the two people.

Honestly, it would be a great thing if Zhou Dagou and Qin Yao could really become a couple. A moment later, Zhou Yuyang's message finally came back, with a hint of helplessness between the lines:

[I'm not lying to you... Just tell me if she's with you guys.]

Chen Chen looked at the message sent by Zhou Yuyang, wondering how to reply.

At this moment, the phone screen lit up again, and Lin Muxi's message came into view:

[Senior, we've finished shopping. We have a lot of stuff. Please come pick us up soon.]

Seeing this, Chen Chen slid his finger across the screen and replied to Zhou Yuyang:
If you don't tell me, I'm going to go out. They went to the supermarket to buy hot pot ingredients. They've finished buying them now and are asking me to pick them up.

Not long after, Zhou Yuyang's message flashed again:
[Okay... Actually, it's nothing serious. I'm just a little worried about her. She wasn't feeling well today and didn't reply to my messages much. I was wondering if she would feel better with you guys.]

Chen Chen frowned slightly, feeling somewhat curious about the situation between Zhou Yuyang and Qin Yao.

But now he was going to pick up Lin Muxi and the others, so he didn't have time to ask in detail.

He replied: [Xiaoxi went to the supermarket with her, I am going to pick them up now.]

After sending the message, Chen Chen quickly got up, tidied his clothes and went out.

Not long after, Chen Chen arrived at the entrance of the supermarket.

From a distance, he saw two girls, Lin Muxi and Qin Yao, standing there quietly with bags in their hands.

Lin Muxi had sharp eyes and spotted Chen Chen's figure at a glance.

A bright smile suddenly broke out on her face. She waved her hands excitedly and shouted:

"Senior, this way, this way!"

Chen Chen quickened his pace and walked forward, reaching out to take some of the bags from their hands.

During this process, his gaze seemed unintentional, but he looked around Qin Yao without leaving any trace.

Although Qin Yao had a smile in her eyes, she looked a little listless.

The eyes that used to be as bright as stars were now covered with a layer of dimness.

As Chen Chen walked back with them, he approached Lin Muxi quietly and asked in a low voice:
"You were just shopping with your schoolmate Qin Yao. Did you notice that she looked strange?"

Lin Muxi raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Chen Chen with some surprise. She didn't expect him to ask this suddenly.

Then, she lowered her voice and said:
"It's a bit strange, so I hinted that you should help keep her. But when we were shopping at the supermarket just now, she was in good condition."

Chen Chen nodded slightly and continued, "Yuyang just sent me a message asking if she's with us. There must be something going on between the two of them."

Lin Muxi opened his mouth in surprise and wanted to ask in detail, but considering that Qin Yao was right next to him, it would be bad to ignore her, so he thought of waiting until he got back to ask her.

Soon, the group returned to their residence.

As soon as we entered the door, everyone immediately got busy preparing the hot pot.

The three of them worked together to move the large and small bags of purchased ingredients into the kitchen and arranged them in order on the counter.

Chen Chen looked at the ingredients and divided the work:
"I'll cut the meat. You go wash the vegetables."

Lin Muxi nodded briskly and replied:

"Okay." As she said that, she naturally reached out and pulled Qin Yao to the sink, and began to sort out the various vegetarian dishes and wash them carefully.

While washing the vegetables, Lin Muxi kept an eye on Qin Yao out of the corner of his eye.

Although Qin Yao was washing the vegetables seriously, her movements were somewhat mechanical and her eyes were somewhat wandering.

Lin Muxi seized the opportunity, whispered to Qin Yao's ear and asked:
"Yaoyao, what's going on between you and Senior Zhou Yuyang? I heard he's really worried about you and keeps asking Chen Chen if you're with us."
