"No, Jiuyi brought you here, right?"
Lu Yuan's brain was working at high speed at this moment, comparable to his thinking speed during the college entrance examination, and he quickly came to a conclusion.
Jiuyi and Ruolin seemed to be very close this afternoon. Also, because Ruolin and I are neighbors and she had come to my house before, Jiuyi currently lives in my house. The two of them happened to meet on their way home, so Jiuyi invited her to be a guest?
Although the expenses were shared equally, Jiuyi was considered half the owner, and he didn't mind Xu Ruolin coming here, but Jiuyi's behavior might be inappropriate, after all, he was the original owner of this house.
Xu Ruolin said apologetically, "Yes, but not entirely. After all, I was the one who insisted on coming here. But before I say that, this is your home, right? It's not nice to stand at the door. Come in."
"oh oh."
Seeing Xu Ruolin waving at him, Lu Yuan finally reacted, walked into the house, closed the door and changed into slippers.
After putting the bought meat in the kitchen and throwing the schoolbag on the sofa, Gu Jiuyi walked out of the bathroom at this time. It seemed that she asked Xu Ruolin to open the door because she was in the bathroom.
Gu Jiuyi saw Lu Yuan and hurried to his side, lowering her head like a girlfriend who had done something wrong, "Um... I brought her in without your consent, I..."
Gu Jiuyi was about to explain, but Xu Ruolin interrupted her, "It's my fault. I heard that you, Lu Yuan, are tutoring Gu Jiuyi, right? I also wanted to have a study session with you so that we can learn and improve together, so I'm sorry to bother you."
Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows. Gu Jiuyi actually said this? She shouldn't have said anything more, right? But since it was Xu Ruolin's words, it shouldn't matter. Xu Ruolin wouldn't spread them around.
Although he knew that the cohabitation relationship could not be concealed for more than a few days, he did not expect that it could not be concealed in less than a day. However, it was not a big problem. He was not the Xu Ruolin in the previous life, so he did not have to worry about being chopped by a hatchet.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. The situation was not as bad as he had imagined. He shook his head and smiled at the two of them. "It's okay. It's good to study together. But Xu Ruolin, will you come every day from now on?"
Xu Ruolin almost blurted out "yes", but fortunately she held herself back, otherwise the character she had been maintaining might collapse.
She was in a state of confusion for a while, then asked in a surprised tone, "Is it possible? But you have to help Gu Jiuyi improve her grades in all subjects, so I guess you don't have much time, right? I'll just do my homework here, and I'll ask you if I have any questions, okay?"
"Yes, I can, but I'm a little bit..."
Lu Yuan thought that there was no question that she didn't know. She must have finished studying long ago. However, he didn't mind Xu Ruolin coming to study with him. However, the desk in his room was so small that it would be a bit tight for just him and Gu Jiuyi. Not to mention three people, it would not be enough.
There's no air conditioning in the other rooms, and the living room is too low for homework. Should I move to the dining room? I'm so torn...
Gu Jiuyi knew the situation at Lu Yuan's home. Seeing Lu Yuan lowering his head and touching his chin, she guessed what he was thinking, so she pushed Lu Yuan.
"Let's talk about studying later. I'm hungry. Go cook."
"Oh, I'll do it now. Xu Ruolin, we can talk about the study session later."
Lu Yuan forgot that these two people had been waiting for him to come back for an hour. Now it would take another half an hour to start cooking. If he didn't cook, he would have to go to bed late again tonight. So he explained the situation to Xu Ruolin and went to the kitchen.
"Uh-huh."
Xu Ruolin nodded and planned to watch TV or read a book with Gu Jiuyi in the living room. Because she didn't know how to cook, and looking at Gu Jiuyi's cute appearance, she thought Gu Jiuyi probably couldn't cook either.
But to her surprise, Gu Jiuyi did not go with her, but followed Lu Yuan into the kitchen.
47.Girl’s heart
Can Gu Jiuyi cook?
Xu Ruolin was very surprised. As smart as she was, there was one thing she was not good at, and that was cooking.
But Gu Jiuyi walked into the kitchen as familiarly as she could and put on an apron. Lu Yuan saw it but didn't stop her, which meant he agreed.
He acquiesced!
Cooking together doesn't mean living together anymore, right?
They are clearly an old married couple!
What should I do? Should I go in? But if I go in, I'll only make things worse...
No, now is not the time to hesitate. Hesitation will only lead to failure. Building a good relationship with Gu Jiuyi is to prevent her from stealing the house. Even if she doesn't have such an idea now, who knows what will happen in the future? What if she does?
Xu Ruolin also walked into the kitchen. Just when he was about to say that he wanted to help wash the vegetables, he saw Gu Jiuyi skillfully picking vegetables with her ponytail tied up, and Lu Yuan was washing the pot.
"Huh? Xu Ruolin, why did you come in?" Lu Yuan caught sight of Xu Ruolin's figure out of the corner of his eyes and turned around to look at her with some surprise.
"I...I'll help." Xu Ruolin looked at Lu Yuan, then at Gu Jiuyi. For a moment, she didn't know how she could help, but she still said it.
Lu Yuan nodded gratefully, but how could he let Xu Ruolin cook? What if he accidentally cut his little hand? Gu Jiuyi helped with picking vegetables, so there was no need for a third person, so he waved his hand.
"Don't be so polite, Xu Ruolin, you are a guest. Just wait for us in the living room for a while. Don't worry, it will be quick." After saying that, he put the pot back on the stove.
Lu Yuan did not mean to dislike Xu Ruolin. After all, he had a strong desire to protect her. The kitchen fumes were so strong and it was troublesome for girls to wash their hair, so the less they got in, the better.
But in Xu Ruolin's mind, this sentence had a completely different meaning.
Lu Yuan didn't let her enter the kitchen. Doesn't this mean that he despised her for not being able to cook and not being as good as Gu Jiuyi next to her?
The competition for positions around boys can be described as a war, just like when a boy is driving, the girl sitting on the passenger seat must be a special existence.
The same goes for the person helping in the kitchen. Cooking together for men and women can be considered a form of flirting, but Lu Yuan actually despises herself?
He actually despised himself!
Xu Ruolin couldn't help but glare at Lu Yuan.
In fact, Xu Ruolin misunderstood. Cooking is indeed flirting. This is what Lu Yuan told her, but it doesn’t apply now.
When making cakes and pasta, the boy can hold the girl's hand, teach her to stir the milk, and stand behind her and play with the dough with her four hands. This is a very sexy cooking skill that will fascinate girls.
But now it's just ordinary cooking. If you accidentally cut your hand while cutting vegetables, or hot oil splashes on your skin, it won't be flirting, it will be a kitchen accident.
Of course, in the previous life, because Xu Ruolin couldn’t cook, Lu Yuan didn’t go into details, which led to the current misunderstanding.
At this moment, Lu Yuan felt a chill on his back. He was very familiar with this feeling. He turned around and saw that Xu Ruolin seemed a little aggrieved, not angry. It seemed that he had not slept enough recently and had an illusion.
However, he could understand Xu Ruolin's desire to help him. If he went to Xu Ruolin's house, wanted to study with her, and then ate and drank for free, he would feel embarrassed.
Lu Yuan thought for a moment and suggested to Gu Jiuyi, "Jiuyi, can you help me cut the green onions? Give the vegetables in your hands to Xu Ruolin to wash. It's getting late, and the three of us can go faster together."
Gu Jiuyi didn't think too much about what Lu Yuan said, and nodded lightly, "Okay."
After hearing Lu Yuan's words, Xu Ruolin's anger subsided a lot. She nodded to Gu Jiuyi to express her gratitude and tied her hair into a ponytail like her.
Even she can do things like washing vegetables.
Xu Ruolin understood that no matter how strong her talent was, she still had to be self-aware when facing unfamiliar fields.
Walking to the sink, he started carefully. Glancing at Gu Jiuyi who was chopping green onions, Xu Ruolin couldn't help wondering, "Gu Jiuyi, can you cook too?"
Gu Jiuyi paused when Xu Ruolin asked, and shook his head gently, "No, I only know a few simple things, which is far behind Lu Yuan."
After saying that, she glanced at Lu Yuan who was pouring oil.
Lu Yuan was very happy to be praised by Gu Jiuyi. As a househusband... no, as a man who can cook, it is a proud thing for a girl to say such words. However, this feeling was not reflected in his expression. Lu Yuan cooked the main course without changing his expression.
"Oh, so that's it..." Xu Ruolin nodded thoughtfully. Humility is human instinct. She didn't believe that Gu Jiuyi really only knew a little bit. Even if she couldn't reach Lu Yuan's level, it probably wouldn't be something she could catch up with in a short time.
In other words, have I completely lost in terms of cooking skills?
"Speaking of which, Gu Jiuyi, are you used to the food here? After all, your family runs a restaurant like that. The food I cook is quite different from what you usually eat. Do you want me to buy some of those ingredients to try?"
Lu Yuan wanted to buy some high-end ingredients, but those ingredients were not available whenever he wanted. He asked this because he wanted to use Gu Jiuyi's channels to try cooking.
"No, if you want to eat, I'll have someone bring it to you." The silver-haired high school girl in an apron whispered softly.
"Is it free?" Lu Yuan's heart trembled. Could it be that Gu Jiuyi's words meant...
"Yeah." Gu Jiuyi nodded.
Nice! Lu Yuan couldn't help but shout in his heart. He initially wanted to buy it with money, but since Gu Jiuyi said it was free, he shouldn't pretend to pay for it. He could just treat it as a processing fee and cook for the daughter of their boss's boss's boss.
"Then I'll try to make it delicious and try not to waste any ingredients."
"it is good."
Hearing the conversation between the two, Xu Ruolin asked in surprise, "Does your family run a restaurant?"
“I guess so. It’s just a part of the industry.”
"Oh, I see."
Hearing this, Xu Ruolin breathed a sigh of relief. Although people who opened restaurants did not necessarily need to know how to cook, it would be much more convenient if they wanted to learn. He had encountered someone else's strengths, so it was normal that he could not compete with them.
But I still feel a little unwilling to accept it. It's rare for me to lose to others, especially in such a matter of femininity.
After Xu Ruolin washed the vegetables and Gu Jiuyi finished chopping the onions, Lu Yuan asked them to stay in the living room and he would call them when he had finished cooking.
They understood as well and left without saying much.
Gu Jiuyi planned to go to Lu Yuan's room to do some homework first. After Xu Ruolin asked Lu Yuan for his consent, he agreed to go to his room to take a look.
“Just put anything you touched back where it was.”
"it is good."
So Xu Ruolin also entered his room.
This was the first time Xu Ruolin entered Lu Yuan's bedroom in this life.
As before, except for the changes in the structure of the room, the style of furniture placement has not changed.
It was just a pink notebook sticking out from the table that caught her attention.
Xu Ruolin couldn't remember when Lu Yuan bought a pink notebook. Did he suddenly become girly?
48. You actually [19/28]
Xu Ruolin walked forward, pointed at the notebook, and asked Gu Jiuyi, "Is this yours?"
Gu Jiuyi shook his head, "No, it must be because the road is far."
Xu Ruolin tilted her head, a little curious, so she opened the notebook to see what Lu Yuan had written.
This is!
Xu Ruolin widened his eyes and looked at every word in disbelief.
This is not Lu Yuan's handwriting...
She read the contents carefully, and after confirming a certain result, she quickly turned each page.
She came to a conclusion.
This is a math notebook that records notes from the first semester to part of the second semester of the first year of high school.
The owner of this notebook is a woman.
Xu Ruolin suddenly felt furious. Lu Yuan actually asked other girls for notes and even borrowed from a senior.
But then I thought, I didn’t seem to know much about Lu Yuan in the first semester of high school, so was it that Lu Yuan borrowed this from his own social circle?
After all, it is really troublesome to travel back in time and make all the notes again. Even she needs to review all the time to consolidate what she has learned.
But who did he borrow the notes from?
Although the student who can make notes like this may not have high grades, but considering Lu Yuan's current grades, I'm afraid the original owner of the notes would not have had very low grades.
Forget it, he is trying hard, which is a good thing. He didn't give up reviewing just because he has learned it. I don't need to persuade him. I just need to score higher than him in every exam to give him motivation.
"What's wrong? This notebook?" Gu Jiuyi saw that Xu Ruolin's expression changed quickly and became curious.
"Ah, no, it's just that this notebook is so amazing. I wrote down so many things." Xu Ruolin was too immersed in her own world and forgot for a moment that Gu Jiuyi was still beside her. Only after hearing Gu Jiuyi's question did she come back to her senses.
"Really? But it's what I should do." Gu Jiuyi didn't care much. She thought it was Lu Yuan's notebook, so she didn't think too much about it.
Xu Ruolin put the notebook back to its place and continued to look around Lu Yuan's room, trying to see if there was anything special.
………………
The food is ready and served.
Lu Yuan wiped his hands with a tissue and prepared to go to the room and knock on the door to call them to eat.
When he walked to the door of the room, his hand fell in mid-air as he was about to knock. Just as he was about to knock, a voice suddenly came from inside.
"How did you get this look? Did you drink too much papaya milk?" Xu Ruolin.
"No, I don't know either. Wow, don't use force suddenly!" Gu Jiuyi.
"Sorry, sorry, I couldn't help it, ah!" Xu Ruolin.
"You actually have a six-pack!" Gu Jiuyi.
"No, that's just a normal line, not that serious." Xu Ruolin.
!!!
this is...
What are the young ladies doing in his room?!
Lu Yuan held his breath, pressed his lips against the door, and listened to the movement inside.
