Chapter 380 He Can't Do It Anymore

The famous West Lake Vinegar Fish does not taste as good as expected.

The other dishes such as braised duck and shrimp chicken tasted pretty good.

"Waiter, check out." Xu Cheng called out.

When Yu Yu heard this, he began to hurriedly take out his wallet, which made Xu Cheng, who was wiping his mouth across the table, couldn't help laughing.

"Why, you want to split the bill with me?"

“No, that’s not it…”

The girl pouted, feeling a little aggrieved. She was not that stingy.

"I'll treat you."

"Oh well."

Xu Cheng did not refuse.

The waiter came over with the bill and said with a smile, "Hello, the total consumption is 378."

"Hmm?!"

Yu Yu’s eyes widened.

Why is it so expensive!

It seems like I didn't eat anything.

She looked into her wallet with a bitter face. She actually only brought 500 yuan in cash with her today. She was afraid of losing it if she brought more. 500 yuan was definitely enough for a day's entertainment with Xu Cheng.

I didn’t expect that I could barely pay for a meal.

"Round it off to make it 370." Xu Cheng said from across the table.

The waiter looked embarrassed.

"this……"

"370 is fine. We haven't even had a few bites of this fish. It seems a little stale."

"Guaranteed freshness, our fish are all caught in West Lake, absolutely authentic."

"Come on, the fish in the West Lake pond must taste worse. We all know whether they are from West Lake or farmed."

"…Then 370 will be fine."

Yu Yu quietly watched Xu Cheng bargaining with the waiter across the table. He thought it was a bit funny that he was a big boss and was haggling with others over a few 8 yuan.

But inexplicably.

The girl felt that he was very... friendly and familiar with his street style.

After checking out and leaving, when they were almost at the door, Xu Cheng said he needed to go to the bathroom and asked Yu Yu to wait for him outside.

He moved quickly and stepped out of the hotel door.

The rain has stopped.

The number of tourists by the lake has also decreased a lot compared to before.

The wind was blowing softly.

You can see water droplets forming lines, dripping down along the eaves.

The grass and trees were washed and became a soft green, and the ground was wet and covered with puddles.

A thin mist rises from the lake not far away, like curling green smoke, like a fairyland on earth, reminding people of the saying...

"There is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below." Xu Cheng couldn't help but exclaim.

Then I saw the slender Yu Yu standing on tiptoe under a tree not far away, stretching out a hand, as if trying to touch the water droplets on the tips of the branches and leaves.

The golden light that has seeped out from behind the clouds will attach a layer of light yellow fluorescence to the leaves. The fallen leaves under the tree also have the same color. This background pattern is like a picture frame, making the girl standing alone under the tree appear quiet, serene and moving.

Xu Cheng didn't call her for a long time, as if he didn't have the heart to disturb this beautiful scene, but the girl had already caught a glimpse of him.

“Hey!”

There was a flash of panic in his eyes, as if he had done something stupid and was caught by his parents.

Because of distraction, my fingers accidentally touched the leaves.

The cool water droplets rolled down playfully, along the girl's white fingertips, quickly passed over her arms and armpits, and ran into the lapel on her chest.

"Aiya!"

Because of the cold, Yu Yu's body trembled instinctively, and he quickly covered his chest with his arms to stop the water droplets from continuing to fly around.

The water droplets were quickly absorbed by the small clothes she was wearing underneath, but the girl immediately realized that it would be very silly for her to dance around by herself.

She glanced at Xu Cheng and found that he was indeed looking at her with a smile on his face.

As a result, the sense of shame in my heart grew rapidly.

The girl lowered her head, looking at the ground with embarrassment, twisting her heels playfully on the ground, trying hard to pretend that nothing had happened and to make her red little face return to normal quickly.

Xu Cheng was afraid that she would really suddenly become smaller and crawl into the crack in the ground, so he stopped teasing her about this.

He walked over and suggested, "Yu Yu, now that the rain has stopped, let's go see if we can go boating now."

"Oh , okay."

The girl nodded.

Then he suddenly remembered how he had let Xu Cheng take the initiative again.

She was clearly thinking that she would be the one taking the lead today.

Go to the ticket booth for the rowing boats.

Rain in the south of the Yangtze River is not uncommon here, and boat tickets are still on sale.

The two of them stood in line. Yu Yu turned his head and glanced at the boat rental price posted in front of him. His face suddenly wilted.

She doesn't have that much money.

It’s hard enough to rent it for an hour, not to mention that it seems like a deposit is required.

Xu Cheng seemed to be able to sense the increase of some dark aura around him. He glanced at Yu Yu who was obviously wilting, then glanced at the price of rowing in front of him, and immediately understood the reason.

"Waiting is so boring, how about playing a game?"

"Um?"

The girl looked in his direction, and Xu Cheng spoke.

"Come on, arm wrestle, who loses..."

He thought for a few seconds and said, "Well, whoever loses will pay for the boat trip."

"???"

Yu Yu looked at his thick and rough arms and frowned.

Arm wrestling.

How could she be his opponent?

So thick...

I'm afraid that if he does that for a moment, she'll be overwhelmed.

Xu Cheng seemed to have noticed her concerns.

"How about this, I'll use three fingers and you use two arms. Can you give way to me?"

Xu Cheng stretched out the index finger, middle finger and ring finger of his right hand, and Yu Yu looked at them with concern.

Why are this guy's fingers so thick?

However, if she could use her two arms, she would not be completely without a chance of winning against these three fingers.

"……Um."

She nodded.

Both of them put their arms on the guardrail beside them.

Xu Cheng used three fingers, and Yu Yu stretched out two small hands and held him tightly.

Her hands were indeed very small, and her ten fingers could barely hold Xu Cheng's three thick and long fingers.

It was still very cool and a little slippery, soft and white, which made Xu Cheng inexplicably think of the word "rouyi".

It originally referred to the newly born leaf buds of plants, and was later compared to a woman's hand by the ancients.

When his hand touched Yu Yu's, Xu Cheng suddenly felt that this metaphor of the ancients was very appropriate.

With her heart fluttering, Xu Cheng hooked his fingers around Yu Yu's palm. The girl thought he had already started, so she used all her strength to try to bend it in the opposite direction.

Xu Cheng immediately grinned.

"Hiss... It hurts, it hurts, it hurts. I haven't even said to start yet, why are you using so much strength?"

“S-Sorry…”

Yu Yu bit her lip and loosened her hand. Looking at Xu Cheng's three engorged fingers, she pouted her lips guiltily and blew at them a few times.

Xu Cheng could feel the wind coming out of her mouth.

It brought with it a sweet orchid-like fragrance, and hit my hands wetly and hotly, bringing with it a tingling and comfortable feeling. The slight pain in my fingers just now disappeared in an instant.

“Okay, okay.”

He felt a little embarrassed at this time, "Let's compete quickly, it's almost our turn."

"oh."

The girl re-arranged his fingers, and with Xu Cheng's "start", Yu Yu used all her strength.

"Yeah."

Faced with Yu Yu's fierce attack, Xu Cheng only held out for two or three seconds before surrendering.

"call--"

He took a breath in exasperation, "You gave in too much. I didn't expect that a girl like you who looks so petite could be so strong."

Yu Yu stuck out his tongue embarrassedly and suggested.

"Let me treat you, Xu Cheng... I don't have enough money with me today, how about you buy it first, and I'll pay you back when we get back to school."

"What? Do you think I can't afford to lose?"

The boy pushed her shoulder and went to the ticket office.

There are many kinds of boats in West Lake. Xu Cheng naturally didn't want to take a boat with other tourists, so there were only two types left: electric self-propelled boats and human-powered hand-cranked boats.

He thought that since he was at West Lake, he should imitate the ancients and experience some natural romance by rowing the oars himself.

So they rented a hand-rowed boat and took Yu Yu to the pier.

He patted his chest and said confidently.

"Hmph, today I'll show you how long I can last."

“…”

Yu Yu was half-believing and half-doubting.

Putting on a life jacket, Xu Cheng jumped onto the boat first, then turned around and extended his hand to Yu Yu who was standing on the dock.

The girl looked at the shaking boat and didn't know where to step. When she saw Xu Cheng extending his hand, she grabbed it without thinking.

I had planned to just jump up with his support.

As a result, Xu Cheng picked her up from the dock easily like picking up a chicken and placed her steadily on the boat.

"Safety first," he explained.

After being hugged, Yu Yu was too shy to speak, so he had to sit down in his seat.

Xu Cheng also sat down.

The two of them happened to be in opposite positions.

Although the boat was occupied by one person on half, because Xu Cheng had long legs and the space on the boat was very small, his legs invaded Yu Yu's side and clamped her feet between his legs.

So the two people's feet were placed in the position of "Orange Fish Fish Orange".

Xu Cheng tried rowing the boat a few times. He couldn't get it right at first, but gradually he found the pattern. The boat started to move and slowly sailed away from the dock.

This gave him a burst of excitement.

So the big feet unconsciously clamped Yu Yu tighter, and Yu Yu had no way to pull away, let alone stretch towards him, so he could only endure it silently with a sense of grievance.

As the cruise ship started, ripples appeared on the nearby lake. Looking at the mountains in the distance, they were not the deep dark green, but a hazy light blue.

The lake water seemed to be even more delicate with the nourishment of the soft rain. Walking through the thin mist, breathing the moist and somewhat sweet air, even my internal organs felt comfortable for a moment.

At this moment, Xu Cheng began to regret his lack of literary accomplishment, and the only thing he could say was "Fuck".

"Wuhu is so beautiful, my family..."

Yu Yu lowered his eyes and looked at the golden and red koi in the lake, the large emerald green lotus leaves, and the pink lotus flowers. He wanted to reach out and touch them several times.

Of course, most of her attention was actually on the boy in front of her.

The two of them happened to be facing each other, so it was hard not to see Xu Cheng, and with the lingering mist, for a moment the girl felt as if they were the only two people left in the world.

She is isolated and independent, but because of that boy, she doesn't feel lonely.

"Is that the Moon Reflected in the Three Pools?"

“I guess so…”

The downside of having no one to guide you is that you have to guess what the scenery is like by yourself, but the two of them actually enjoyed it.

After rowing for an unknown amount of time, Yu Yu noticed that the boat seemed to be going much slower and Xu Cheng's rowing frequency had also decreased.

Just a word of concern.

"Xu Cheng, are you unable to row anymore?"

“Huff…Huff…”

Xu Cheng was panting heavily, and when he heard that, he tried to force a smile, "We've only just arrived, it won't be a problem for me to come for another half an hour."

In fact, at this moment he was only regretting his previous show of strength.

I have to choose a manual one instead of an electric one.

Women seem to be able to easily see through men's pretense.

Yu Yu soon discovered the truth that Xu Cheng was very tired.

"Take a rest first. It's so cold here. If you make yourself too tired, it will be bad for your health..."

"All right."

Xu Cheng's arms were so sore.

He no longer tried to be tough.

This kind of work can probably be considered a craft.

His arms are not well trained. If someone with strong arms comes, maybe he can be stronger than him.

At this time, Yu Yu took the oar from him and gently rowed the boat slowly.

"Just let me rest for a while before rowing again." Xu Cheng said.

"It's okay. I'm very strong." Yu Yu said, and as if to prove it, she paddled the boat hard twice.

“Hiss…ah.”

Yu Yu closed his eyes in some pain, placed the oars on both sides of the boat, and clenched his little hands.

"What's wrong?" Xu Cheng asked immediately.

The girl stammered.

"It feels like I was stabbed by something."

"A splinter in the oar? Let me see."

Without waiting for Yu Yu to stretch out her hand, Xu Cheng directly "grabbed" the girl's hand, held it and looked at it for a while, but found nothing unusual.

Yu Yucai raised his other hand helplessly and amusedly.

"Yes... this one..."

"oh."

I took the girl's hand and didn't see any obvious blood.

"It didn't prick your hand, it's probably just a small splinter, I can help you pull it out."

Yu Yu bit her lip. Compared to the stinging pain in her palm, her heart seemed to be occupied by more other emotions at this moment as her hand was held.

Xu Cheng couldn't see the wooden thorn, so he moved closer to Yu Yu's hand, as if he was putting his face against the girl's palm.

Yu Yu could feel a wet and warm feeling in the palm of her hand, and she knew it was the breath exhaled by Xu Cheng.

“Found it.”

The boy carefully pulled it out, and Yu Yu quickly withdrew his little hand that had been held for such a long time.

"It doesn't hurt anymore, does it?"

"Um……"

Looking at the time, it was already late. Xu Cheng had almost rested enough, so he took the oars again and headed back towards the dock.

Because it rained, the scenery in the evening was very beautiful.

They both raised their heads at the same time and looked towards the western sky.

At this time, the clouds looked like they had drunk a pot of fragrant wine, and the bright sunset glowed the sky red.

Yu Yu turned his back and said in a daze.

“So beautiful.”
