Forced into a relationship

Thinking of this, Han Zhou felt a little relieved. It would be better for him to admit his mistake sooner. He still felt guilty for lying to such a pair of sisters who depended on each other, especially Zhong Ling. Being looked at by such pure eyes, perhaps it would be difficult for anyone to have the intention to deceive.

"Senior."

He suddenly looked at the worried girl beside him who was holding two cups of Coke.

"What's wrong?" Zhong Ling turned her head to look at him, thought for a moment, handed him a cup of Coke, and asked with blinking eyes, "Are you thirsty?"

Han Zhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I just finished two cups of Coke, how could I be thirsty?"

Although he said so, he still took the Coke and said with a smile, "I'll hold it for you first, but Senior Sister's appetite is too small. She can't even finish a glass of Coke."

After spending half a day in the milk tea shop, Zhong Ling had only finished about half of her first cup of Coke.

Zhong Ling was a little embarrassed and explained: "It's mainly because I ate a lot at noon."

"You eat a lot?" Han Zhou asked curiously, "Last time I saw you didn't seem to eat much at home, so senior sister shouldn't have a big appetite, right?"

"Well, I usually eat less, but the lunch was leftover from last night. If I didn't finish it, it would have to be thrown away. I didn't want to waste it, so I tried my best to finish it..."

Han Zhou looked strange. No wonder he saw him holding his stomach from time to time. He thought he was not feeling well, but then he found that he could drink ice cola. It didn't seem like what he thought, so he didn't ask any more questions. He didn't expect that the reason was that he ate too much...

Food in summer really can’t be kept for long. He shook his head and smiled, “If you can’t finish it, forget it. There’s no need to force it. It’s not a waste.”

"No, I can finish it. I'm just a little full. It's okay." Zhong Ling shook her head to indicate that she didn't need to worry about it, and then asked in confusion, "By the way, what did you want to say when you called me just now?"

"nothing."

"really?"

"real."

"Have you ever lied to me about anything else?" Zhong Ling guessed.

"No."

Han Zhou quickly denied it. He just remembered Zhong Yin's instructions. He originally wanted to ask Zhong Ling what she wanted to eat. There were a lot of food and drinks on this street, but looking at the current situation, the other party might not be able to eat anything, so he did not ask.

The two followed the map instructions and went to the mobile phone store.

Not long ago, Lin Anyu sent a message saying that he had already made arrangements, and that he would just need to find a chance when no one was around to tell the people in the store, “Brother Yu asked me to come.” If the other party replied, “You two are a perfect match,” then it meant that the contact was successful.

Han Zhou's mouth twitched. Lin Anyu was such a grown-up but still so childish. He bought a cell phone and made it like a spy meeting. However, he felt that the other party mainly wanted him to say "Brother Yu asked me to come" so as to satisfy his own bad taste.

As for the phrase "the two of you are a perfect match", it goes without saying that now, whenever Lin Anyu finds out that he is with someone else, he will immediately be certain that the other person is a girl. Although Han Zhou really wants to refute it, the fact seems to be true. Except for Lin Anyu, the people he interacts with the most now are almost all of the opposite sex...

"This is the status bar's fault, not mine."

Han Zhou silently calmed himself down, and soon arrived at the mobile phone store with Zhong Ling.

There were not many customers in the store. There were a wide variety of mobile phones on the shelves. Several little boys holding mobile phones were squatting near the door. Judging from their ferocious faces, they were probably playing games. They were squatting at someone else's door on such a hot day, so they must be here to use the wifi.

There was a sleepy-looking man sitting in the store, leaning back in a chair bored. From the computer in front of him, there were loud collision sounds and crying conversations, and it seemed that a TV series was playing.

Seeing Han Zhou and the other man come in, the man lazily stood up, yawned and said, "Welcome."

It's not like a store clerk to be so perfunctory towards customers...

Han Zhou was suspicious. Seeing the man looking at him, he hesitated for a moment, then approached him and said in a low voice, "Hello, Brother Yu asked me to come."

The man's eyes lit up when he heard that. He looked at him seriously for a while, took out his phone, turned on the recording function, and whispered, "Sorry, please say it again."

Han Zhou: "..."

He was silent for a moment, then said helplessly: "Did Lin Anyu ask you to do this?"

“No, no, no, I just didn’t hear it clearly.” The man said with a smile.

Han Zhou would have believed it, so he held his forehead and said, "I knew that guy had this idea, it's too naive."

“No, no, I was just joking.” The man put away his phone with a smile, then cleared his throat and said loudly, “Ahaha, you two are such a good match!”

Zhong Ling behind her was stunned for a moment. She only saw Han Zhou walk over and whisper something to the clerk, and then she heard the clerk shouting this sentence. Now there were only two customers in the store, her and Han Zhou, so this match was obviously referring to them.

"Are we a good match?" She tugged at the small cloth bag and asked subconsciously.

But the man obviously couldn't hear what she was saying, so Han Zhou had to come over and explain: "Don't mind, he was just saying it casually, this is a joke my other friend played on me."

Zhong Ling hesitated for a moment and asked doubtfully: "Do you think we are not a good match?"

Han Zhou was stunned. How should he answer this? Zhong Ling's "matched" should mean fate, right? So what should he answer "matched"?

Fortunately, the man came over in time to save the situation and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, what I said just now was indeed a joke. Please forgive me if I was offended in any way."

He looked at Han Zhou and Zhong Ling for a moment, and the smile on his face became ambiguous. "But to be fair, I think you two are really a good match. How should I put it? It feels like the cool student and the cute school girl in campus idol dramas."

Han Zhou was silent for a moment, then reminded: "Well, I'm actually younger, she's my senior."

Zhong Ling has a cute and childish appearance, so it is understandable that she is considered young.

"Hahaha!"

The man laughed a few times to hide his embarrassment. "I'm sorry, but it doesn't matter. The cute senior and the cool junior are a good match. Have you watched the popular drama "The Domineering Junior Falls in Love with Me" recently?"

Domineering... Domineering junior?

Han Zhou's expression froze. Just the sound of this damn name gave him a sense of an old online novel... Speaking of which, he had not studied the online novel market in this world. He still had some impression of the popular online novels in his previous life. He didn't know if it was too late to be a plagiarist now...

He shook his head and said, "No, I don't usually watch TV."

Zhong Ling didn't have as rich inner drama as Han Zhou, but she didn't like the domineering junior brother very much. The domineering senior sister sounded more powerful, so she just shook her head slightly.

The man felt a little regretful and said, "Young people nowadays really don't watch TV that much. My sister doesn't like to watch it either, so I can't find anyone to share it with. But I strongly recommend this TV series, it's really good."

"I'll definitely take a look if I get a chance."

Han Zhou smiled and said a few perfunctorily. He had just seen the scene on the computer screen. Two men and one woman were drenched like drowned rats in the heavy rain. It reminded him of the famous scene in his previous life: "Stop fighting." To be honest, he really had no interest in this kind of TV series.

The man's name is Zhang Chengfan. He looks older, but he is actually only in his early twenties. He is a rich second-generation like Lin Anyu. He is not a clerk. He just happened to be nearby today. His biggest hobby is watching idol dramas and shipping couples.

I have to say that this hobby is a breath of fresh air among contemporary youths...

Zhang Chengfan kept praising "My Domineering Junior Fell in Love with Me". Fortunately, he did not forget that Han Zhou and the others were here to buy mobile phones. He temporarily forgot about the TV series and asked, "By the way, what kind of mobile phone do you want to buy? What is the price you can accept? Don't worry, I will definitely give you the lowest price."

He patted his chest to make the promise.

"I'll probably just buy one that costs around two thousand, as long as it's practical. What about senior?"

Han Zhou stated his request, then looked at Zhong Ling, nodded slightly, and continued, "My friend's request is the same as mine."

Zhang Chengfan looked at him in surprise and asked in confusion: "Did your friend just speak?"

"She did." Han Zhou explained, "But her voice was relatively soft, so you might not be able to hear clearly."

"Is this true?" Zhang Chengfan asked in confusion, "It's not just that I couldn't hear clearly, I didn't hear your friend talking at all."

This guy must be very outgoing, otherwise he wouldn't continue to ask such questions. He asked curiously, "Is it telepathy?"

"No, it's just that my hearing is better, so I can just hear the voice of the senior sister."

Zhang Chengfan's eyes lit up and he asked excitedly, "Can you demonstrate it?"

Han Zhou raised his eyebrows, and then he heard the other party continue to say, "Don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't believe you, I just suddenly remembered that the nearby mall is holding a Chinese Valentine's Day event, it's a couple game called 'Telepathy', the winner can get a prize of 10,400 yuan, maybe you can give it a try."

"Ten thousand four hundred yuan?" Zhong Ling opened her eyes wide.

"Couple game?" Han Zhou muttered to himself.

No wonder there are so many couples around here, they are holding a Tanabata event...

"How about it, are you two interested?"

Zhang Chengfan encouraged, "Our store is also a sponsor of this event. If you win, I can give you a free mobile phone. Do you want to try it?"

"Is there such a good thing?" Han Zhou was stunned, as if he had thought of something, and asked in confusion, "Could it be that Lin Anyu asked you to find an excuse to give me benefits for free?"

He and Lin Anyu are from completely different backgrounds and personalities, but they have a very good relationship. That guy usually takes good care of him and knows that his family situation is not good, so it is possible that he would do such a thing.

Zhang Chengfan was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Of course not. There really is a Qixi Festival event, and it has been held for several days. However, it is very difficult to win, and no one has succeeded in the challenge so far. Ten thousand yuan is not something that can be taken casually."

Han Zhou had no interest in such activities. It was a waste of time and effort and he would probably not win, let alone get the prize money. He planned to buy a mobile phone and leave, but when he turned around, he saw Zhong Ling with shining eyes.

"Senior?"

"Ten thousand four hundred dollars!"

Zhong Ling looked at him expectantly, her clear eyes seeming to sparkle with golden light.

Han Zhou was stunned: "Are you interested in this activity?"

"We can each get 5,200 yuan!"

"But this is a game for couples, and we may not win."

“You can also get a free mobile phone!”

Han Zhou smiled bitterly and said, "You have to win to get it..."

"I want to join in. Shall we go and have a look now?"

Well, it seems this guy won't listen to anything...

Han Zhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't expect that this senior sister was such a money-grubber. Without saying a word, she dragged him outside. He couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Do you know where the location is?"

Zhong Ling finally came to her senses and shook her head blankly.

Han Zhou didn't want to go, so he tried to persuade her: "Senior, that's a couple's game. If there's any part that requires intimate contact..."

Zhong Ling opened her eyes wide, and seemed a little hesitant, but she heard Zhang Chengfan smile and said, "Don't worry, there won't be any such activities. The Qixi Festival activities are mainly used to attract young people. If the target is limited to couples, there will be no profit. Therefore, as long as a man and a woman can participate, there will be no clichéd physical contact."

The smile on his face became brighter and brighter. "Our goal is to bring young people who are in ambiguous relationships together into couples, that is, to build a bridge for lovers, so that everyone can feel the beauty of love. Speaking of which, I have contributed a lot to this event."

This is just your own goal...

Han Zhou complained in his heart, he even suspected that this activity was organized by this guy just to support CP.

However, a prize of more than 10,000 yuan is indeed very tempting. If divided equally, each person will get more than 5,000 yuan. Since Zhong Ling doesn't mind, then he has nothing to worry about.

He is currently in a state of "dying" and "leaving it to fate", which should be enough to deal with most challenges. It seems that he has a chance to get the bonus...

The more Han Zhou thought about it, the more he thought it was feasible. He just didn't know if he could play this game repeatedly. If he succeeded this time, he would bring Guzheng to play again next time, and then Mo Yixia. Zhong Yin could also try. Well, since only one man and one woman are needed, then it should be okay to play with Lin Youya...

He had begun to daydream.

Thinking of this, Han Zhou and Zhong Ling looked at each other, saw the light flashing in each other's eyes, and then nodded at the same time.

go try it!

Zhang Chengfan on the side also nodded with satisfaction, with an auntie smile on his face. These two are indeed a good match, and they seem to have a good understanding. I'll kowtow to them first...
