Chapter 10 Wu Yu and Xin Luo's Love 3. Secret Love
After the meal, Wu Yu felt a little restless because he was worried about the photos. He waited for a while, but when he saw that no one was going to leave, he hurriedly said that he had something to do, and said goodbye to everyone and left.
He left school and walked straight to the photo studio, and soon arrived. The photo studio seemed to be very quiet, with no customers, and the pretty girl was sitting on a chair in a daze.
She heard footsteps, looked up and saw that it was Wu Yu, smiled and greeted Wu Yu. Because they had met before, they were no longer restrained and introduced themselves to each other. Wu Yu then knew that the girl's name was Zhu Meihua.
Wu Yu smiled and said, "Meihua, please help me develop some photos, but this time you can't disappear like last time."
The Chinese woman smiled apologetically and said, "I promise it won't happen again, don't worry."
Wu Yu handed the film to Hua and said, "Can you please call me when you're done developing it?"
"Your phone number..." Hua Nv said, thinking for a moment, and then said, "I have the record here, I thought it was gone."
"Thank you in advance. I have something to do, so I'll leave first." Wu Yu waved to her and turned back to the ancient house.
As Wu Yu walked, he thought about the last time he took a photo of Xin Luo, and wondered how the photo ended up in Xin Luo's hands. Wu Yu thought about it again, and then he realized that maybe Xin Luo saw him taking a photo that day, and then he remembered that Niao Niao appeared in the photo studio that day... Now he understood a little, but what the truth was, it seemed that he had to ask Niao Niao and Xin Luo to find out.
Wu Yu returned to the old house. There was still light rain falling from the gloomy sky. It was already evening and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street, which seemed gloomy.
Wu Yu sat in the dimly lit room, not thinking about the secrets of the old house and the blue and white porcelain and all the people involved, but thinking about every detail of today with Xinluo. Gradually, sleepiness swept over him and darkness surrounded him.
After an unknown amount of time, Yunyun came back and saw that the lights were off in the room. Puzzled, she pushed open the door and could vaguely see Wu Yu sleeping through the light from the corridor. She called out, "Yu--"
"Yeah." Wu Yu responded in a dreamy voice, then turned around and looked at Yunyun.
Yunyun turned on the light, turned to Wu Yu and said it was time to get up and have dinner, then walked to the mirror and began to remove her makeup.
Wu Yu hurriedly finished his dinner, then went back with Yunyun to fetch some water to take a bath. After washing, they held umbrellas and prepared to go to Xinluo's room.
Soon they arrived at Xinluo's room. Seeing that the door was closed, Yunyun called softly, "Xinluo, are you there?"
"We are taking a shower now. Please wait for a while, Sister Yun." Niao Niao's delicate voice and the sound of water came from inside. It seems that they were not lying and were indeed taking a shower.
Wu Yu could vaguely hear the sound of water, and through the screen window he could vaguely see the graceful figure in the pale yellow room. Seeing this, Wu Yu's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he hurriedly closed his eyes, telling himself not to continue watching.
Wu Yu covered his chest, inadvertently recalling that this feeling seemed to have only occurred during his first love in his youth. Thinking about it, he actually felt excited, as if he was expecting something.
After a while, they saw a vague figure slowly approaching the door, and then the door was opened with a creak. Niao Niao stood at the doorstep, looking at them with a smile, her hair casually scattered on her temples, and her fair face looked even more charming under the candlelight.
Wu Yu was stunned. He only reacted after Yunyun's repeated reminders and followed Yunyun into the door.
"Sister Yun." Before Wu Yu had even stood firmly on his heels, Xinluo's voice like a silver bell floated over. Then he saw Xinluo slowly walking out from behind the screen. After bathing, Xinluo was as charming as a lotus emerging from the water, and her clear eyes revealed infinite tenderness.
Wu Yu's heart beat fast again when he saw her, and he just stared at her blankly, forgetting everything for a moment. Xinluo seemed to notice that Wu Yu was different, her face was slightly hot, her eyes drooped, one hand pinched the corner of her clothes, her heart was beating like a deer.
Yunyun seemed to be completely unaware of the situation. She still smiled as she walked to the guqin, gently stroking the strings with both hands and said, "You never expected it! This guqin has been in the old house for almost fifty years ."
Wu Yu was shocked by what Yunyun said, and thought to himself: Fifty years? This means that the guqin has been handed down, which also confirms the legend of the ancient town.
Just as they were surprised, Grandpa Xinluo walked in, gave them a strange look, and said slowly: "Is Su Wei not back yet?"
Everyone looked at the old man in surprise. Wu Yu thought to himself, "Could it be that the old man is beginning to doubt Su Wei?"
"You don't have to look at me like that. I just have something to do with him." The old man explained with a smile, revealing a mouthful of dentures.
"Grandpa, does he have something to talk to him about?" Niao Niao asked puzzledly.
"It's just a small matter." The old man was still smiling, and that smile looked extremely strange in Wu Yu's eyes.
"He called me before and said he would be back later." Seeing that grandpa was in a hurry to find his beloved, Niao Niao hurriedly explained.
The old man nodded, turned around and went back to his room.
Afterwards, everything returned to normal. Niao Niao taught Yunyun to play the guqin, while Xinluo sat aside with her hands supporting her face, staring at the guqin in a daze. Although Wu Yu had been watching Yunyun playing the guqin, his mind was completely on Xinluo, looking absent-minded. Xinluo was tired of holding the guqin with her hands, and inadvertently looked at Wu Yu, and saw that he was looking at her infatuatedly. She suddenly became flustered and lowered her head shyly.
Niaoniao taught Yunyun to play a few songs, and Su Wei came back just in time. Niaoniao told him what Grandpa said. Su Wei opened his eyes wide , looking a little panicked, but he went to the old man's room without saying anything.
Wu Yu suspected that the old man was looking for him about the blue and white porcelain, so he was in a panic. Later, when he saw Su Wei coming back, he was silent and unhappy, and he became more worried.
In the silent night, Wu Yu's eyes were still open, and he kept thinking about Xinluo and Su Wei. Thinking of Xinluo's charming smile today, his heart seemed to be bewitched. At that moment, Xinluo in his eyes was like the fox he saw that night, a fox that could seduce people's hearts.
