I'm in high school, is my dating system working correctly?

Chapter 95 Shall I go to your house?

I only planned to sleep for an hour, but when I woke up, the sunlight outside was tinged with the orange hues of the evening.

Time seems to have been stolen.

During this period, Cheng Bailu was able to write one and a half test papers for herself to correct, or memorize dozens of words, or review the knowledge points of the first semester of the first year of high school Chinese.

But now.

Looking at Lu Yu, who was holding her with great restraint and fast asleep with his eyes closed, she felt as if time had turned back.

The time I spent with him, whether we did anything or nothing, was wonderful.

When Lu Yu was beside her, Cheng Bailu didn't feel uncomfortable or awkward, nor did she feel uneasy because he had entered her life. It was as if he was meant to be there.

In the past seventeen years of her life, Cheng Bailu had never thought that there would be a boy who would be so compatible with her.

But Lu Yu was right there.

She smiled, pursing her lips, and carefully examined the boy's sleeping face.

Her hair was a bit long, and her bangs covered part of her forehead.

Her eyebrows are perfectly straight, and her eyelashes are as long as a girl's.

He has a straight nose and thin lips, but they are a good color.

The neckline is cinched, and the lines from the neck to the collarbone are very elegant.

My hand was still on his abs, warm and reassuring.

According to Cheng Bailu's aesthetic standards, Lu Yu was the most handsome boy of her age she had ever seen.

But whether he's handsome or not doesn't matter.

Her gaze unconsciously focused on Lu Yu's lips.

Memories of that ambiguous moment in the afternoon resurfaced in my mind.

His eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Cheng Bailu's heart raced.

If he didn't know, then it probably doesn't count, right?

After glancing at him several times and confirming that the boy was breathing evenly and was still asleep, Cheng Bailu mustered her courage.

Go closer, and then.

My heart was pounding. Deer were running wildly through the forest, and the earth was shaking.

A blush of shyness spread across the girl's face, and she dared not even glance at the sleeping boy.

Burying her head against his chest, Cheng Bailu closed her eyes.

She suddenly wished that her parents would come home immediately, that they would open the bedroom door and see the two of them as they were now, and that she would stand up and say those words as she had told Lu Yu.

But then Cheng Bailu felt that she was being selfish, having dragged her relationship with Lu Yu to a point where neither of them was ready.

She has experienced a lot of hardship and witnessed how her parents' love struggled to stay together during those difficult years.

and so.

Cheng Bailu knew that she needed to become stronger and be able to withstand all difficulties and obstacles.

Only in this way can one truly possess one's own happiness.

Her thoughts were in turmoil, and her consciousness began to blur again.

After a while, Lu Yu opened his eyes.

I overslept.

There was no way around it; Cheng Bailu was just too good at sleeping.

Although the bed was narrow, only 1.5 meters long, and not long enough, Lu Yu couldn't even stretch his legs out.

But the sweet and soft girl in his arms was like a large pillow, with a faint lemon scent lingering around Lu Yu's nose, making him feel comfortable and relaxed.

You can sleep all day long.

However, it's about time.

Using the skills he had honed with Zhou Qianyun, Lu Yu carefully climbed off Cheng Bailu's bed without waking the girl.

I glanced at my phone; it was time to make dinner.

However, Lu Yu was in no hurry to make a move.

Instead, he sat in Cheng Bailu's chair and quietly watched the sleeping girl.

Outside the window, the clanging sound of passing trains echoed.

The golden rays of the setting sun shone on the curtains, creating a hazy and dreamlike effect.

There were many wonderful moments for Lu Yu.

Watching the sunset forty-three times on the hillside at dawn.

Watch the fish swim upstream, the birds return to their nests, and the butterflies flutter in the streams in the fields.

Watch the clouds, watch the sea, watch the torrential rain, watch the rainbows on a sunny day, watch the dazzling fireworks, and watch the solemn and majestic distant mountains.

And now.

Looking at the sleeping face of Cheng Bailu beside him, he saw her sleeping peacefully.

When Cheng Bailu woke up for the second time, she smelled the aroma of food.

In a flash, the thought that "We're together" was about to pop into her head was suddenly broken when she realized that Lu Yu was nowhere to be seen.

It was just a dream.

No wonder I was so bold.

She dreamt that she suddenly got her period and felt unwell, so she wanted Lu Yu not to go out. Instead, he brought her some nourishing medicinal herbs to her door and brewed her tea.

I dreamt that I was having lunch with Lu Yu like a family. My parents went out, leaving me and Lu Yu alone in the dimly lit bedroom to watch a movie. At the same time, I said the confession line from the movie.

She dreamt that the two of them were sleeping in each other's arms, and before Lu Yu woke up, she secretly left a mark on his lips.

It was all a dream.

That's not surprising, that's not surprising.

It was a good dream.

A smile spread across her lips as she stood up, feeling much lighter and less uncomfortable during her period.

Push the door open and go out.

"You're awake? I was just about to wake you up."

In the living room, Lu Yu had just served a dish.

"what?"

So it wasn't a dream after all?

Is everything real?

Then I...

Suddenly becoming hesitant, Cheng Bailu pressed down on the door frame, somewhat at a loss.

"Are you feeling better?"

Lu Yu leaned closer and helped Cheng Bailu tuck her hair, which had fallen over her shoulders, behind her back.

"Huh? Hmm, um, I'm feeling a little better."

He was hesitant to face Lu Yu.

Cheng Bailu looked away.

Why is this girl getting shy?

Lu Yu subtly probed her emotions.

"After all, it's tea brewed by Lu Yu, so it's gentle and nourishing. I left the recipe for my aunt. She should drink it once a week, and it should take about three months to get her body in good shape. She won't feel so uncomfortable anymore."

To ease her shyness, Lu Yu turned back to the kitchen to prepare the last dish.

"Change your clothes, wash your hands, and let's eat. I'm using your kitchen, please don't mind."

'

.Um."

Cheng Bailu changed back into the outfit she wore at noon and followed them into the kitchen.

While washing her hands, she also washed the dishes for both of them, and secretly glanced at Lu Yu in front of the stove.

Finally, there was the stir-fried amaranth. Lu Yu skillfully stir-fried it, giving the vegetables, which had a purplish-red juice, a fresh and enticing aroma.

The two carried the bowls, chopsticks, and the last dish back to the living room.

Most of it was actually leftovers from lunch, just simple dishes.

Cheng Bailu slowly sat down, feeling no different from when she was at home.

in case.

She meant "if".

If I get together with Lu Yu in the future, this will probably be our daily life, right?

Lu Yu brought over his charged tablet and casually opened a food documentary to watch while eating.

The two watched a documentary while eating, occasionally exchanging a few words about its contents.

There was no deliberate attempt at intimacy, nor any particular airs; it was just like their everyday life at home.

You don't have to be a model student who makes everything easy for others. You can be picky about food, and you can put dishes you don't like into the other person's bowl. You don't have to sit up straight, and you don't have to worry about your words being misunderstood.

"Speaking of which..."

The afternoon gave Cheng Bailu a little courage.

That feeling of "you understand my unspoken words, and I understand your unspoken meaning" made her feel very at ease.

So, she decided, slightly.

Just a little bit.

Push it forward a little bit.

"Since you've already visited my home, may I have the opportunity to visit you?"

Lu Yu paused with his chopsticks, then continued picking up food.

"Great! I haven't been out all day, which is a bit of a letdown. I'll take you to our machine tool factory sometime, and then we can go to my house."

After swallowing the food, Lu Yu continued speaking, thus solidifying this ambiguous, casual agreement.

"There's no time like the present! Which day of the National Day holiday are you free?"

"Oh? Hmm, number five or six, either is fine."

Cheng Bailu considered it for a moment.

"Then number six."

After all, Lu Yu was going out with Zhou Qianyun on the 4th, and he didn't want to work non-stop. Besides, he checked the weather forecast and it might rain on the 5th.

"Okay, sure."

Cheng Bailu chuckled to herself.

"Oh, right."

Lu Yu added a sentence as if he had just remembered something.

"My parents went on vacation and won't be back until the 7th."

'

"...So, um, by then, it'll just be the two of us at your house?"

Cheng Bailu's smile froze in time.

"Or we can just stroll around outside, that's fine with me."

Lu Yu conceded a step.

There was no way around it; this National Day holiday was a trip where Lao Lu and his wife forgot about their child. Cheng Bailu's period ended, and it was like this every time she came.

"Hmm."

The girl pondered for a moment.

"Let's go to your place."

Anyway.

I have nothing to be afraid of.
