Huayu: Live a carefree life

Chapter 85 A Date with Chen Duling

The place Chen Duling arranged to meet was a renovated ancient city street. Fortunately, it was winter, so wearing a coat and scarf didn't seem out of place.

Otherwise, even if she were reckless, she wouldn't have chosen a place like this to meet, or rather, go on a date? It should be considered a date, right?

Chen Duling bought two cups of herbal jelly from her student days, and sat quietly on a bench by the street, drinking and waiting.

After waiting a while, she keenly caught Lu Jie's figure walking towards her and immediately smiled naturally.

Lu Jie's intuition was very accurate. He recognized Chen Duling, whose face was half covered by a scarf, at a glance and went straight over to sit next to her.

He naturally took her slightly cool, slender hand and rubbed it. "I'm sorry, the driver isn't familiar with the roads and kept Dudu waiting. My hands are cold."

"It's alright, it's alright, I just arrived too." Chen Duling's face immediately flushed red. She gently struggled but couldn't pull away, letting him hold her hand. "I—my hands are naturally cold, not frozen—"

Perhaps realizing that she was rambling a bit, she quickly handed another cup of grass jelly to Lu Jie, "Here~ This is what I loved to drink when I was in school. It's a local brand, and it's only available in Fujian."

"Oh~ it's the drink you loved to have when you were in school, Dudu. I'll have to give it a try." Lu Jie took it with a mischievous grin.

He deliberately raised his right hand, which was tightly gripping Chen Duling's, and said, "Dudu, could you help me insert the straw? It's inconvenient for me to hold your hand with my right hand~"

"You—you can just let me go. What are you doing—in public, don't—don't do anything reckless—" Seeing Lu Jie suddenly lean closer, Chen Duling thought he was going to kiss her, so she nervously closed her eyes. But then she heard a slurping sound. When she opened her eyes, she saw Lu Jie directly biting the straw she had used to drink her herbal jelly. She immediately puffed out her cheeks and turned into an angry little rabbit.

"Ugh, why did you drink mine! Honestly, you have no hygiene at all! I'm ignoring you!" Chen Duling angrily shook off Lu Jie and turned her back halfway.

Chen Duling has never had any intimate contact with men outside of filming. It's not that no one pursues her, but that she doesn't find them attractive. Just when she was thinking about whether she should lower her standards, Lu Jie appeared.

A chance encounter at the airport, being rescued at night, a chance meeting for the female host—all the gains she had made in two years in the entertainment industry paled in comparison to knowing him for just two days.

But this man is so wicked! He clearly has a girlfriend, yet he keeps flirting with and teasing me.

She was truly shameless—knowing he had a girlfriend, she still—still tried to get close to him—knowing he was in Xiamen, she said she didn't want to talk to him.

But she hurriedly washed up and put on makeup, wanting to show him her best self. Chen Duling, what happened to you?

Lu Jie was charmed by her angry appearance. She really had no intimidating power at all, and only made him, the big bad wolf, even more ferocious. He then proceeded to rub her!

"Ugh—what are you doing? Let go!" Chen Duling's slender, fair face was directly distorted by Lu Jie's roughness.

"Lu Jie! You—uh! Uh? Uh—" Chen Duling was about to speak when she was kissed, leaving her a little dazed.

Although Boss Lu is young, his methods of picking up girls are very old-fashioned. If a girl is willing to go on a date alone, it means there's a chance. If a girl doesn't get angry when he flirts with her face to face, it means she's tacitly agreeing. In that case, he must first show his respect by being intimate with her!

As expected, Chen Duling was stunned for a moment, struggled but failed, and her body gradually softened.

Slowly prying open her pearly teeth, I caught her shy little tongue sucking. It was sweet and cool—thanks to the grass jelly!

Since it was a public place, Lu Jie only kissed Dudu for about ten seconds before pulling away and holding the limp Dudu in his arms, teasing him.

"Dudu, you're so cute, I can't help it~"

Chen Duling rolled her eyes at him, then continued to pout and remain silent. Although she really wanted to figure out what place she held in his heart, she knew that things couldn't be rushed.

Relationships aren't like calculus. Calculus has formulas and standard answers, but relationships don't. Relationships require compromise and adjustment.

She has feelings for him, and he seems to like her a lot too. They chat on the same wavelength, both love playing games, and have similar educational backgrounds, so there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with them.

Moreover, she was beautiful and Lu Jieshi was a perfect match. He had done so much for her and had never made any unreasonable demands.

Such a person is extremely rare in the entertainment industry and would be an even rarer species in normal society. Although Chen Duling has never been in a relationship, she still has basic discernment.

Lu Jie smiled, stood up, poked at his own grass jelly, took a sip, and then grabbed her cold little hand again. "Come on, beautiful and lovely Dudu, show me around your hometown~"

Chen Duling wasn't angry, just being reserved. After being pulled to her feet and struggling a few times, she let him lead her. "You naughty boy, come on, let's go eat the most authentic oyster omelet on Xiamen Island!"

Lei Jun said that Lu Jie is very good at expressing himself, which is true, but what he is best at is coaxing girls. He successfully got Chen Duling to take his arm in less than fifty meters.

"The oyster omelet I'm taking you to is so authentic! It has that kind of golden-brown color that looks so appetizing, with a slightly charred patty. When you bite into it, it's crispy on the outside and incredibly chewy and bouncy on the inside. They always use the freshest and plumpest oysters, so they're tender, juicy, and have no fishy taste. Glug—"

At this point, Chen Duling actually swallowed, and Lu Jie almost couldn't help but laugh out loud. She really had a kind of adorable and innocent charm that didn't match her age.

Both born in 93, Kris Wu is a high-IQ beauty. He is very sophisticated and alluring, while Dudu looks aloof but is actually silly and cute. In short, you can't get enough of her!

Chen Duling was furious when her thin face was rubbed again. "You stinky Liu Jie, don't you dare touch my face again!"

Otherwise, I really won't talk to you anymore!

It was still a powerless, impotent rage, but Boss Lu was kind-hearted and said with a smile that he would definitely do it next time.

While waiting for the oyster omelet to be ready, Lu Jie secretly used his phone to record the scene of Chen Duling standing in front of the stall, staring intently at the sizzling oyster omelet on the teppanyaki grill.

Dudu truly loves oyster omelets. In the video, she looks like a cute little bunny, sitting obediently by the stall, eagerly leaning forward to check the progress, her eyes full of anticipation for the delicious food to be ready soon.

Chen Duling took the lunchbox and turned around before realizing Lu Jie was filming her. She puffed out her cheeks again, "Stop filming! I didn't even say we should find a seat first!"

"I've been so busy recording how cute my Dudu is that I've been saying all this time," Lu Jie said, adding a qualifier before Dudu's name. "Let's go over there, it's free now."

Chen Duling did want to complain about what he meant by "your Dudu," but because the next sentence came out in time, she didn't have time to say it and could only follow him to the empty space by the wall.

"Little brother Lu Jie, did I bring you to the right place? Isn't it super delicious?" Chen Duling was extremely proud when she saw Lu Jie's expression as he savored the delicious food.

Lu Jie nodded and gave a thumbs up, "Dudu has great taste, it's really delicious, especially with this Fujian-style sauce you mentioned, it's amazing!"

"Call me Sister Dudu~ I'm two years older than you~" Chen Duling proudly raised her head.

Lu Jie grinned mischievously and leaned closer, "Dudu, you're so cute. Calling you 'sister' is definitely not an option, but~ I'd really like it if 'sister' called me, and I'd be very interested~"

As expected, Chen Duling blushed again, hurriedly looking around and slapping Lu Jie, "Ugh, you're so annoying! Saying these things in public, it's so embarrassing!"

"Hehe, so Dudu means it's okay as long as it's not in public~" Lu Jie grabbed her snow-white little hand and kissed it, then picked up a small piece of oyster omelet and fed it to her lips.

Chen Duling opened her mouth in a daze, letting the man feed her. By the time she realized what was happening, it was too late; she couldn't very well spit it out.

Unbeknownst to them, two furtive photographers were snapping away with telephoto lenses, capturing intimate moments, including the feeding scene.
