Oh no! My yandere school beauty is so clingy!

Shen Yu was in the kitchen, trying to focus on making dinner and distract herself, but she couldn't help thinking about it...

Now, he truly has no family left; he only has Lin Anran all to himself.

Perhaps now, he is more afraid of them breaking up than Lin Anran is of Lin Anran. Lin Anran will be very sad, and he certainly won't be any better off than Lin Anran.

While Shen Yu was cooking, Lin Anran was also busy tidying up the living room and the bedroom.

Her mind was still reeling from her interaction with Shen Yu...

However, she was also worried about Shen Yu's feelings and hoped that Shen Yu could recover as soon as possible.

After tidying up, Lin Anran sat quietly at the dining table and waited.

She didn't offer to help, knowing that Shen Yu needed something specific to keep herself occupied with at that moment.

The simple two dishes and soup were served quickly.

Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, broccoli with garlic, and a bowl of seaweed and egg drop soup.

Shen Yu, holding his rice bowl, naturally sat down next to Lin Anran.

He started eating, but his movements were slow, and he didn't seem to have much of an appetite.

But after taking a couple of bites, he naturally picked up a piece of golden-brown scrambled egg and brought it to Lin Anran's lips.

"Try it," Shen Yu said, his voice still slightly hoarse.

Lin Anran was stunned for a moment... but she didn't say anything, opened her mouth slightly, and ate the piece of egg.

Shen Yu watched her chew and swallow, then picked up another piece, this time broccoli coated in sauce, and held it to her mouth again.

"Have some of this too..."

Lin Anran's face flushed slightly, and she obediently ate again.

Shen Yu is feeding her...

She could clearly sense that Shen Yu barely touched the rice in his bowl; his attention seemed to be entirely on her, watching her eat, then picking up food and feeding her.

He picked out the best parts of the vegetables very carefully.

In between feeding her, he would hurriedly eat a couple of bites of rice before continuing.

She could sense that Shen Yu seemed to be trying to be kind to her...

She didn't refuse anymore, nor did she say anything; she simply accepted his feeding quietly.

Occasionally, she would pick up a piece of food with her chopsticks and put it in his bowl, saying softly, "You eat too."

Shen Yu would glance at her, then hum in agreement, and eat the food she had picked up, though she still didn't eat much.

Night was falling outside the window, while the lights inside the room were warm.

The two sat close together, quietly eating their simple dinner.

The simple dinner ended in silent understanding.

Shen Yu silently finished the last grain of rice in his bowl, put down his chopsticks, and Lin Anran put down her bowl almost at the same time.

"I'll clean up..." Shen Yu stood up and picked up the empty bowls and plates.

"Together." Lin Anran also stood up and rushed to get the soup bowl and the leftover dish.

The sound of running water filled the air, and the chopsticks and bowls clinked together with a crisp, clear sound.

Shen Yu was in charge of washing, while Lin Anran took the cleaned dishes and carefully dried them with a cloth.

After tidying up, the kitchen was clean and tidy again, and the hands of the clock on the wall pointed to eight o'clock.

"Well, I'm going to take a shower now." Shen Yu picked up the clean pajamas draped over the back of the chair and said to Lin Anran.

"Okay." Lin Anran sat on the sofa, hugging a cushion, and nodded.

Watching Shen Yu take the clothes into the bathroom and close the door, the sound of running water soon came from inside.

She relaxed and leaned back on the sofa, but her ears involuntarily perked up, listening to the sounds coming from the bathroom...

In the bathroom, warm water poured down from above, quickly wetting Shen Yu's hair.

He closed his eyes and let the water wash over him.

After a long while, he raised his hand and brushed his soaked black hair back to reveal his smooth forehead.

He opened his eyes, and the misty mirror reflected a face with little expression.

He stared at himself in the mirror, or rather, through the mirror, looked into some empty space.

His eyes were vacant, unfocused...

The dead cannot be brought back to life...

He could no longer allow himself to grieve.

He also has Lin Anran.

Thinking of the girl waiting quietly in the living room, and how she tried so hard to comfort him despite her fear...

Shen Yu closed his eyes briefly, and when he opened them again, his eyes were bright.

Grandpa hopes he will live a good life, and Mom certainly does too.

He has to move forward.

After washing up, he turned off the water, dried his hair and body with a towel, and changed into clean pajamas.

The person in the mirror still looked a little pale, but their expression had improved a lot.

After a while, the bathroom door was opened, and Shen Yu came out.

Lin Anran had been keeping an eye on the commotion over there. Almost immediately, she put down the cushion, stood up from the sofa, and walked over to him in a few steps.

Her gaze immediately fell on his face, scrutinizing him closely.

His eyes... seemed a little clearer...

"Are you done washing?" Lin Anran asked softly, looking up at him.

"Mm." Shen Yu nodded, then slightly turned up the corners of his mouth and said:

"Go ahead!"

"Okay!" Lin Anran nodded quickly, a smile unconsciously spreading across her face.

When Lin Anran entered the bathroom and heard the sound of water returning, Shen Yu stood still, raised his hand to rub his temples, and then walked to the sofa and sat down.

He picked up the new book he had bought that day from the coffee table and started reading it.

After looking around for a while, his eyes fell on a paper bag on the coffee table, which contained photos he and Lin Anran had taken that day.

He put the book down, picked up the paper bag, and took out all the photos inside.

Looking at the photos of the two of them together, my fingertips gently trace those frozen moments.

In every picture, Lin Anran's smile is so bright, her eyes are curved, as if filled with light.

As he watched, he unconsciously relaxed little by little, a smile playing on his lips.

He picked up one of the cards, held it in his hand, and examined it for a while.

In the photo, Shen Yu is hugging Lin Anran from behind, resting his chin on the top of her head. Lin Anran is leaning against him, smiling sweetly.

Then, he picked up the book he had just put aside, opened the cover, and carefully tucked the photograph behind the title page, before the first page of text.

The photo is just the right size, fitting perfectly in the clip.

When you close the book, a little bit of the photo will peek out, making it perfect as a bookmark.

That way, the next time he's reading, the first thing he'll see when he opens the book is...

"Huh? 1...2...it seems like one is missing."

Shen Yu checked the photos and realized that one was missing. It was a candid shot of Lin Anran kissing him, which he liked quite a bit and had even set as his phone wallpaper.

After searching around, Shen Yu finally fixed his gaze on the TV cabinet in front of him.

There, my favorite photo is displayed in a frame.

Shen Yu walked over, picked up the photo frame, looked at it, and smiled faintly.

It seems Lin Anran quite likes this photo; it's already been arranged...

Then, he subconsciously flipped the photo frame over, blinked, and was somewhat surprised to see an extra line of text on the back:

I will always be with you.
