I turned reality into a romantic comedy.

"Have you tried it? Have you tried it?"

"Don't worry, Mu Mu. Just like in those TV dramas, he'll open his eyes when you're almost touching him. That's right, that's how it is."

Recalling similar plots from TV dramas or romance novels he had watched since childhood, Lin Mu nodded in sudden realization:

"That's true, that's how it's always portrayed."

"After all, artificial respiration is just kissing. It's too easy to give up one's most important first kiss while one is unconscious, so it's just for show. That's my opinion as the author."

"Oh, I see."

Completely unaware that Zhu Wenyun's words were contradictory and entirely inconsistent with the current situation, Lin Mu raised another finger:

"So, what kind of female lead would you like to observe from the sidelines and see if she would act alongside Qianqian in this scene?"

"There's no fixed idea; we just want to see who's the first to discover it?"

"Isn't that me?"

Ignoring his sister once again, Lin Mu suddenly became coy. He glanced at his childhood sweetheart, who was still lying there quite diligently and motionless, and cautiously leaned over to ask:

"Well, did Qianqian himself say who he wanted to play the role with?"

"No, no, but I must remind Mumu that it's almost completely dark now. If we don't make a decision soon, everyone will be looking for us."

Seeing the two of them fidgeting and hesitating, Zhu Wenyun really missed Gu Linguo a little, so she quickly added pressure on time, hoping that Lin Mu could make her choice soon.

As for why it was Lin Mu, if Chen Xi dared to go up and take a bite in front of Lin Mu, then Zhu Wenyun would certainly cheer for her.

As expected, after Lin Mu arrived, Chen Xi subconsciously became somewhat fearful and began to purse her lips, blaming herself for not making a decision sooner. She was being cautious about doing something important here, and it turned out that Yuan Benchu ​​was actually herself.

After being given such an ultimatum by Zhu Wenyun, Lin Mu had no choice but to reluctantly return to Chen Junqian's side.

Because she had fantasized more than once in the past about the other person lying motionless beside her and being taken care of like this, even though she knew that Chen Junqian was just pretending to be asleep, Lin Mu still subconsciously put herself into the role she most wanted to play.

So, instead of immediately starting the mouth-to-mouth breathing exercise as the two onlookers had expected, she seriously checked on the other person's condition first, as if Chen Junqian were a drowning person she had just rescued.

Just like that, Chen Junqian, who was lying there, felt his jaw lighten and felt his entire chin being gently lifted up. Lin Mu, who was kneeling beside him, moved as gently as possible to keep his head tilted back. Then he heard a murmur, "Remember to clean your mouth and nose first."

Of course, this is actually more of an explanation for other people.

After all, right after Lin Mu finished speaking, she had already extended her fair and delicate fingertips and directly inserted them into his mouth, causing Chen Xi, who was standing next to her, to twitch involuntarily, but there was nothing she could say.

After all, if someone is drowning, there may indeed be mud, sand, and water residue left in their mouth from choking on it while trying to survive. If these substances are not cleaned out, they can enter the lungs with each breath and cause a fatal blockage.

But Chen Junqian was not a real drowning person, so his mouth was naturally empty. Lin Mu's fingertips moved freely and unimpeded, opening his teeth and entering the innermost part of his mouth, making intimate contact with his tongue. When the two fingers came out, they were wet and glistening, looking incredibly ambiguous.

However, Lin Mu herself did not feel any shyness because of this alluring action. In fact, after withdrawing her fingers, she subconsciously stood up, her tone quite flustered:

"No, no, no..."

"What's wrong?"

"Qianqian's tongue didn't react at all. Normally, touching the back of the tongue would cause a physiological reaction, but he... he didn't react at all. Qianqian? Stop pretending, I'm so worried."

Still no response.

Lin Mu was really about to cry now.

"Wenyun and Xiaoxi stay here and watch over things. I'll go find the medical staff here."

Seeing Lin Mu's completely genuine reaction, and glancing at Chen Junqian who was still lying there motionless, Chen Xi and Zhu Wenyun, who had been calm and collected, also felt that things were getting serious. The latter was alright, but the former also started to worry. They remembered that the other party had found their swimsuit among those rocks before. Could it be that he accidentally bumped into something back then?

Thinking this through, she immediately replied:

"I'll go with you to call for help. Could you please ask Sister Yun to watch over my brother here?"

"Okay, sure."

Watching the duo run away quickly, Zhu Wenyun sighed again, squatted down, and poked Chen Junqian's cheek:

"It's neither Mu Mu nor Xiao Xi, so do you really like Lin Guo that much? Anyone can play this kind of role, I certainly don't have any problem with it."

"I told you before, if you like it, I can learn it specially for you. After all, you also learned those things that you weren't particularly interested in for us."

"This trip will be like this, and future school trips and high school life will be the same."

As she said this, Zhu Wenyun gently leaned down and kissed Chen Junqian's lips, giving him a perfunctory breath:

"Mumu looks really sad, so get up."

P.S.: Thank you for reading and subscribing.

Chapter 121: Don't Steal My Persona (Part 2)

After much back and forth, with two of the three female leads running away, the romantic comedy about artificial respiration ultimately fell to Zhu Wenyun. The moment she put her mouth to his, Chen Junqian finally regained control of his body, abruptly opening his eyes and waking up instantly, almost knocking over Zhu Wenyun who was leaning over him.

"No need to see a doctor, I'm fine."

Upon waking up, Chen Junqian immediately called out to Lin Mu and Chen Xi, who had already run quite a distance, and then gave the explanation he had prepared beforehand:

"I accidentally fell asleep while acting just now. Did I scare you two? I'm so sorry."

Seeing Chen Junqian stand up from the beach as if nothing had happened, Lin Mu and Chen Xi ran back and forth, one on each side, to his side, looking him over and touching him as if to confirm that he was really alright. Chen Junqian himself, on the other hand, held onto his towel tightly with both hands.

Unfortunately, the bath towel in romantic comedies seems to be designed as a prop just to fall down at any moment. To avoid embarrassing himself in front of Mu Mu, he could only devote himself wholeheartedly to protecting the bath towel, which is why Lin Mu noticed this very quickly.

"It's good that Qianqian is alright, but what's with this bath towel? Where are your swim trunks?"

When this topic came up, Chen Xi, who was standing next to him, subconsciously looked away, but then quickly looked back and gave Chen Junqian a wink, seemingly telling him not to tell everything that had just happened. So Chen Junqian made up a reason, saying that he had been accidentally swept away while swimming and was just covering himself with a towel for the time being.

However, Lin Mu did not pursue the matter further. After all, her childhood sweetheart's motionless silence had startled her. In fact, when she reached into Chen Junqian's mouth, she was prepared to expose his feigned sleep if he moved his tongue. But who would have thought that Chen Junqian would really seem to have lost all consciousness, which made her panic.

"Alright, it's getting late. Let's go back and rest before having dinner. As for whether you want to go out again tonight, that depends on your own interest or stamina."

It felt like so much had happened in just one afternoon. Chen Junqian led the three of them toward the parasol. Xu Youwei and the others had already packed up most of their things there. The group then returned to the hotel, went to their respective rooms to change clothes and rest, and chatted with each other in their small group chat about the interesting things that had happened that afternoon.

Excluding the various achievements that had already been triggered, the past few hours this afternoon not only accumulated a lot of progress for triggering Chen Junqian's fan service achievement, but also helped to achieve two brand new achievements: "No one is here so don't come over" and "Please let me do CPR".

However, it is precisely because of the increasing success of romantic comedies that Chen Junqian, as the male protagonist, can more and more clearly feel that the rules of this world are being reshaped. If nothing unexpected happens, his high school life will probably be completely different from his previous life.

Although more uncontrollable accidents will inevitably occur, if it can bring a more colorful and fulfilling youth, Chen Junqian is completely willing to accept it, and even looks forward to it.

With this in mind, Chen Junqian took another shower in the bathroom of his room, then changed into casual clothes and lay down on the bed. When he opened the group chat page on his phone, he found that there were already many messages.

I glanced at the conversation briefly; it was basically everyone chatting about what they'd done that day and what they wanted to do tomorrow. Some people were still reminiscing about jet skiing, some were still upset about getting a tan because they hadn't worn sunscreen, and some, who had just learned to swim that day, were saying they wanted to try it out in the water tomorrow. But in the end, it all came down to one question:

What should we eat tonight?

Faced with a barrage of questions tagging him in the group chat, Chen Junqian really wanted to reply with "Yeah, what are you eating?", but since he had already made plans beforehand, he honestly typed out:

[Let's have a BBQ at the beach downstairs tonight]

As soon as he replied, Shen Nianqiu responded first:

[It feels like a romantic comedy!]

Gu Lingguo, who had only typed half of the sentence on her phone, could only delete it again. Looking at Zhu Wenyun and Shen Nianqiu, who were chatting about topics such as "Test of Courage" and "Flame Flower", she suddenly understood why some anime fans had such extreme prejudices against "Yunzi".

The Brahmin was actually myself?

Soon, night fell like velvet over the private beach, the deep blue sky studded with starlight like scattered diamonds, and the sea breeze, having shed the daytime heat, carried a cool, salty scent as it gently caressed the swaying coconut palms. Several warm yellow vintage camping lights were hung haphazardly between two tall coconut trees, creating a cozy little world with their string lights.

"Oh, oh, oh, that's the feeling! And, senior, are my oysters ready?"

Sitting on a huge picnic mat, Gu Lingguo held a half-full glass of passion fruit sparkling water with ice in her hand, loudly protesting at the barbecue grill not far away. She was wearing a bright yellow floral sundress, which made her look full of energy, and her round eyes were staring longingly at the food on the grill.

"What's the rush? Lin Guo, were you a starving ghost in your past life? You can't rush things, especially not good oysters. Besides, didn't you just eat a ton of them at noon?"

In front of the barbecue grill, Chen Junqian was wearing a pink apron that was completely out of place with him. Lin Mu had forced him to wear it as punishment for pretending to be dead and scaring people that afternoon.

After the chaotic afternoon of drowning and CPR, Chen Junqian really didn't want to upset Lin Mu any further. Even in his pink apron, his profile, focused on flipping the skewers, was still undeniably handsome in the warm, yellow glow of the charcoal fire. Cumin and chili powder released an enticing aroma with the high temperature, and dripping oil onto the glowing red charcoal produced a sizzling sound.

"Because oysters are a good thing, a woman's beauty salon."

"Where's the first half? How come it's missing?"

Sitting next to Gu Linguo, Shen Nianqiu chuckled softly. As the eldest sister among them, she was wearing a long red dress, and the sea breeze was blowing her long hair, making her look gentle and intellectual. However, how much of her suppressed love was hidden under that gentle face was another matter entirely.

"Huh? What? What?"

"Could you please not teach Mu Mu bad things? I'm asking you."

"This is considered setting a bad example. Mu Mu is sixteen years old, not six. Her protective instincts are excessive."

The one who said this was Xu Youwei. She now undoubtedly hates the idea of ​​treating her best friend like a child. She has an attitude that she wants the whole world to know that this child has grown up to be old enough to date, after all, she herself, who is the same age as her, is already so experienced.

"Exactly, it's better than the senior pretending to be asleep for CPR this afternoon and actually falling asleep. I really missed such a great show. If Sister Lin Mu hadn't let it slip, I wouldn't have known that someone almost gave up their precious first kiss to save someone at the beach this afternoon."

Gu Linguo's tone was clearly mocking, and he deliberately dragged out the last syllable.

These words instantly ignited the atmosphere.

Amidst everyone's chatter, Lin Mu, who had been pretending to look at the sea but whose ears had been perked up all along, realized she had made a fool of herself. Her pretty face, already slightly red from the campfire, instantly turned as red as if it were about to bleed. Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, she pounced over, grabbed a wad of cotton candy from the table, and precisely stuffed it into Xu Youwei's still chattering mouth.

"Uuuuuuu..."

Xu Youwei chewed on the sweet cotton candy, blinked her eyes in grievance, and thought to herself that she was clearly helping her best friend. Even if they didn't kiss, this could still be considered the peak of the half-step kissing realm, okay? Coupled with the identity of childhood sweetheart, it was more than enough to deter all kinds of philandering cats.

"Let's not talk about what happened this afternoon. Come and eat. The first plate is ready."

In the end, Chen Junqian came out of the predicament himself. He walked over carrying two huge stainless steel trays, which were piled high with sizzling grilled lamb skewers, garlic oysters, foil-wrapped enoki mushrooms, and grilled chicken wings. The rich aroma instantly filled the entire picnic mat.

As he spoke, Chen Junqian bent down again and placed the tray steadily in the center of the low table. Then he deliberately moved closer to Lin Mu, so close that the latter could even smell the faint scent of charcoal and shower gel mixed on him.

"I'm so sorry about what happened this afternoon, and about Xiaoxi. I really apologize for scaring you."

"I don't care."

Chen Xi responded calmly, saying that she had figured it out after returning to her room. It was her own fault for not seizing the opportunity, so there was nothing to blame her for. However, at least she knew her brother's feelings, so overall she still made a small profit.

"It's okay, it's okay, Qianqian has already agreed to wear this outfit as I requested."

Lin Mu seemed equally unconcerned. He smiled and glanced around at Chen Junqian's attire before unceremoniously picking up a skewer of meat, taking a bite, and mumbling:

"Yes, it's cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Qianqian's cooking skills are truly exceptional."

"That's right, look who baked it."

Chen Junqian proudly raised his chin, took off the embarrassing pink Hello Kitty apron and threw it aside, then sat down next to Gu Lingguo and Lin Mu.

"Have some of these to tide you over, and if you're interested, you can try grilling them yourselves later. It's quite fun."

"Indeed, BBQ is best enjoyed by grilling it yourself, but your skills are just too good... But if I don't grill it myself, I can't feed you. Sigh, I'm so conflicted."

"Speaking of which, did your younger brother sometimes deliberately cook the food separately like this?"

Unlike the others who were feasting, Shen Nianqiu was more interested in the fact that Chen Junqian brought two trays of barbecue that looked significantly different.
