Chapter 4 If you want me to take responsibility, I will take responsibility to the end 2
It turns out that the effect of this dressing up is quite good. Then the two of them walked around the streets. Even though Mu Chuwei was walking on the street with a swagger, few people paid attention to him. Because no one would associate such a big boy who was dressed so casually with the dazzling but high-ranking big star.
After concealing his dazzling brilliance, he was also happy and at ease, leisurely following Lin Lanzhi and strolling around casually.
After walking for a while, he suddenly stopped, raised his hand to touch the sunglasses on his nose, and said, "Student Lin, can I discuss something with you?"
Seeing that she didn't respond, he had no choice but to take a step forward and pat her shoulder. When she turned her head to look at him in confusion, he immediately pretended to be pitiful and said, "These glasses are really uncomfortable to wear. Can I take them off?" Then he changed the subject and said, "If there is a problem with my eyes, you will have to support me for the rest of my life, but I can't let you support me. It's better for men to do this kind of thing."
Is his imagination too rich?
Lin Lanzhi looked at him speechlessly and said, "As long as you are not afraid of being discovered, it's up to you!"
"Okay." Mu Chuwei took off his sunglasses, revealing an exquisite and handsome face, with a hint of pride flashing in his eyes.
Lin Lanzhi ignored him and walked forward, heading towards the snack bar that she was most familiar with and liked the most with a clear purpose.
But after walking for a while, she suddenly felt something was wrong. She turned around and saw that he was no longer behind her.
Just as she was wondering how he disappeared in the blink of an eye, a large ball of marshmallow suddenly appeared before her eyes.
Before she could react, Marshmallow moved aside slightly, and Mu Chuwei's handsome face came into her sight. He smiled and said, "Here, I'll give it to you."
Lin Lanzhi was stunned for a moment, looking at the marshmallow in his hand, a little dazed. She remembered that the last time she ate marshmallows, she was still very young and her father was still alive. She often pestered her father to buy them for her, but then her father passed away and she slowly forgot the taste of marshmallows.
She couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in her heart, with a hint of sweetness.
"Thank you." She reached out and took the marshmallow from his hand, but hesitated to eat it.
He gave her a marshmallow, and Mu Chuwei still had one in his hand. He took the marshmallow and gently touched it to hers like a toast.
"What are you standing there for? Eat quickly."
After saying that, he opened his mouth and took a bite, then immediately frowned.
"What's wrong with you?" Lin Lanzhi asked curiously.
Mu Chuwei said with a bitter face: "Why is it so sweet?"
Lin Lanzhi looked at him strangely and said, "Marshmallows are naturally sweet, otherwise you would think they are bitter?"
“I prefer bitter to sweet.”
Lin Lanzhi suddenly realized and said, "You don't like sweets?"
Mu Chuwei nodded solemnly.
"Then why did you buy marshmallows?" Lin Lanzhi looked puzzled.
"Because I think you will definitely like it." He then smiled.
Lin Lanzhi was stunned. Did he buy it because he thought she would like it? Just like her father, he would buy it for her as long as she liked it...
Just as she was lost in thought, Mu Chuwei looked at her puzzledly and asked, "Why don't you eat? Don't you like it?" There was a hint of disappointment in his tone.
Lin Lanzhi didn't hear what he said. She just smiled at him after she came to her senses, then stuck out her tongue to lick the marshmallow, then pursed her lips to lick the candy off, and continued to take the second bite, completely unaware that Mu Chuwei beside her was stunned and couldn't take his eyes off it.
As she ate and walked forward, she caught a glimpse of him staring at her from the corner . She turned her head to look at him in confusion and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Mu Chuwei's face immediately flushed a little. He was a little guilty trying to hide the strange feelings in his heart. He coughed twice and said, "Well, I'll go throw away the marshmallows first. I don't like sweet things. I'll feel uncomfortable if I eat too much."
"Wait!" Lin Lanzhi stopped him and snatched the cotton candy from his hand without saying anything. She said with some heartache, "It's still edible. It would be a pity to throw it away."
Mu Chuwei reminded her, "But I just took a bite..."
"It's okay." Lin Lanzhi took a bite of his marshmallow and ate it happily.
Mu Chuwei couldn't help laughing when he saw her greedy look. What made him secretly happy was that she didn't even dislike the food he had eaten.
Of course, it seemed that he was happy too soon.
Lin Lanzhi ate his marshmallow all over the place where he had eaten it, leaving only the part he had eaten untouched, and then threw it into the trash can on the side of the road.
"My saliva is not poisonous..." Mu Chuwei muttered in dissatisfaction.
Lin Lanzhi naturally didn't hear his voice. She walked towards the familiar snack bar with contentment.
Although Mu Chuwei was somewhat dissatisfied, he still followed silently.
The proprietress was a middle-aged woman in her forties. Because Lin Lanzhi was a frequent customer here, they became familiar with each other. As soon as she entered the room, the proprietress immediately said with a smile: "Xiaozhi is here! Come and sit down, your favorite seat is empty!"
As soon as the lady boss finished speaking, she spotted the handsome young man following behind her and immediately said with a smile, "Xiaozhi, is this handsome guy your boyfriend? Oh, girl, I finally see you bring your boyfriend here, it's really rare! How about this, since this is the first time you bring him here, I will give you a bowl of your favorite sweet noodles for free!"
The quick-talking lady boss said a lot, but Lin Lanzhi was embarrassed. After the lady boss finished, she hurriedly explained: "Lady boss, no, you misunderstood..."
Before she finished her words, Mu Chuwei reached out and hugged her. She turned her head to look at him in surprise, but saw him smiling and said, "Boss lady, thank you! I've heard from Zhier that the boss lady here is very nice. After meeting her today, it's true!"
With just a few words, he made the proprietress so happy that she turned happily and went into the kitchen to busy herself.
After the boss lady left, Lin Lanzhi looked at him and asked, "Why did you interrupt me just now? She clearly misunderstood..."
"So what if it's a misunderstanding?" Mu Chuwei shrugged disapprovingly, but a trace of cunningness flashed in his eyes. Seeing that Lin Lanzhi was about to get angry, he hurriedly said, "Didn't you just hear what she said? Considering that you brought your boyfriend here for the first time, she gave us a bowl of free sweet noodles. Why are you pushing away such a good thing?"
Is he willing to be misunderstood just for a free bowl of sweet noodles?
Lin Lanzhi was a little suspicious, but she didn't pursue the matter further.
Mu Chuwei, on the other hand, seemed to be secretly delighted for a while. Sitting in this simple snack bar, he kept looking at the girl opposite him with a smile on his face. He didn't feel at all that his temperament was out of place in such a common snack bar.
The boss lady was particularly enthusiastic today and personally delivered the snacks they ordered. Mu Chuwei took the sweet noodles from the boss lady, handed it to Lin Lanzhi, and said with a smile: "Dear, don't burn yourself."
Lin Lanzhi, who was drinking a drink, choked and almost spit out the drink in her mouth.
She raised her head and glared at him in shame and anger. After the proprietress left, she lowered her voice and said, "Don't shout!"
"If you're acting, you have to do it in full." Mu Chuwei blinked and said as a matter of course, "I just did it for the boss lady to see. Don't take it to heart or take it seriously."
Lin Lanzhi's face suddenly became hot, and she said awkwardly: "Who took it seriously!"
"I know you don't have any." Mu Chuwei smiled very ambiguously, "Eat your sweet noodles quickly, it's getting cold!"
He had already said so, and if she continued to pursue the matter, it would seem that she was being a little sensitive and self-indulgent.
Lin Lanzhi bit her lip secretly, then lowered her head awkwardly and started eating noodles.
Mu Chuwei also lowered his head to eat, and from time to time he looked up and secretly glanced at her, with a smile clearly revealed in his eyes.
After eating the snacks , the two strolled leisurely on the snack street.
Suddenly, Mu Chuwei keenly noticed something and grabbed Lin Lanzhi's hand.
When she looked at him in surprise, he lowered his voice and said, "Follow me."
Before Lin Lanzhi could react, he had already dragged her into a nearby alley.
Mu Chuwei quickly glanced at the entire alley and saw a tattered large wooden box at the innermost part. He immediately ran over there, squatted down, pressed Lin Lanzhi's shoulders, and used the large wooden box to hide the bodies of both of them.
This set of movements was smooth and quick, catching Lin Lanzhi off guard and making her suspicious: "What are you doing?"
Mu Chuwei immediately put his index finger to his lips and said "hush". Lin Lanzhi looked at him in confusion and opened her mouth to ask him, but he quickly covered her mouth.
Lin Lanzhi was startled and began to struggle instinctively, trying to break free from his restraints.
Mu Chu was afraid that she would make mistakes, so he stretched out his arms and hugged her tightly in a hurry.
Lin Lanzhi froze for a moment. She seemed to have no reaction at all and temporarily forgot to struggle.
The unique masculine scent enveloped her entire body, and her heart seemed to be occupied by him.
She couldn't hear any sound, but she could clearly feel his slender and strong arms, his firm and warm chest, and his fast and strong heartbeat...
It seemed as if there were only her and him left in the world.
Time seems to have stopped, maintaining the most beautiful posture forever.
Mu Chuwei covered her mouth, but her eyes and ears were always focused on the movements at the alley.
At this moment, the two young men stopped at the alley entrance, holding cameras in their hands. One of them scratched his head in annoyance and said, "Strange, I just saw someone who looked very similar to Mu Chuwei, how come he disappeared in the blink of an eye? Am I dazzled?"
"How is that possible! I saw it too, okay? And there seemed to be a girl following him, I wonder if she is his new girlfriend! Wow, if we dig up this blockbuster news, we will publish it! Haha..."
"Don't be too proud, we just followed him and he disappeared, why don't you look around quickly, don't be too happy for nothing!"
As the two young reporters spoke, they quickly disappeared from the alley.
Mu Chuwei heaved a sigh of relief, retracted his head, and slowly let go of the person in his arms, as if he didn't feel the awkwardness and ambiguity in the air. With a smile on his lips, he looked at her and said, "Don't worry, they're gone."
Lin Lanzhi suppressed the complicated emotions in her heart and asked doubtfully, "What happened just now?"
Seeing her puzzled look, Mu Chuwei couldn't help but gently tapped her head and said, "Silly girl, didn't you understand just now? Those gossip reporters want to take pictures of us and report them to the news. If they take pictures of us, you won't have a peaceful life in the future."
It turned out that there were paparazzi following them.
After Lin Lanzhi understood, a strange light flashed in her eyes, and then she regained her composure . She said lightly: "Then should I thank you for letting me escape from this disaster?"
Mu Chuwei immediately said proudly: "There's no need to be so polite between us."
Lin Lanzhi stood up, glared at him unhappily, and said, "Mu Chuwei, don't touch me anymore!"
"Don't be angry." Mu Chuwei was afraid that she would be angry, so he hurriedly and carefully coaxed her. However, staring at her shy face, he couldn't help but have the idea of teasing her, "If you want me to take responsibility, I will take responsibility to the end."
Lin Lanzhi's face suddenly became even redder. She turned away and said shyly and angrily, "Who asked you to be responsible?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and hurriedly ran towards the entrance of the alley.
Looking at her fleeing back, Mu Chuwei raised the corners of his lips in pleasure, his gem-like eyes emitting a dazzling light, making the whole alley suddenly bright.
"Zhi'er, wait for me!" He shouted loudly at her back and then chased after her.
However, as soon as he ran out of the alley, two sharp-eyed girls on the side of the road recognized him at a glance and immediately screamed wildly: "Chu Wei! Mu Chu Wei——"
Their voices successfully attracted the attention of the crowd within a hundred meters, and they quickly swarmed over from all directions.
Mu Chuwei suddenly felt like he had fallen into a trap, with nowhere to escape.
Lin Lanzhi kept running forward, at first just wanting to temporarily avoid Mu Chuwei, but after running for a while, she felt something was wrong, so she stopped and turned to look back, only to be shocked to find that Mu Chuwei was surrounded by a group of fans. Fortunately, he was tall and was not completely submerged by the crowd.
As if he had noticed her gaze, Mu Chuwei, who was squeezed in the crowd but still maintained a charming smile, looked at her and said loudly to her across the crowd: "Remember to be happy all the time. See you tomorrow."
Lin Lanzhi was stunned.
"Remember to be happy all the time. See you tomorrow." These words touched her silently like a drop of rain, making her whole heart throb.
She had a vague feeling that this big star who suddenly broke into her life was quietly taking root in her heart.
She couldn't guess what this man was thinking, nor did she know how much truth there was in his words, but she had to admit that he would make her heart beat by chance.
Sometimes she even felt that her world was not all dark. But this also made her a little scared. If a heart that had pursued the light lost that light, could it still endure the loneliness of darkness?
Her worries were soon realized.
In the next few days, Mu Chuwei did not show up in school, let alone appear by her side. The inexplicable expectation in her heart slowly died out.
She couldn't help but secretly laugh at herself in her heart. She just played a game with you on a whim. The game was over, but you were still daydreaming...
They are originally from two different worlds, like two intersecting lines. After a brief contact, they will drift away and never have any intersection again.
Through such self-hypnosis again and again, she slowly brought her life back to normal track. She continued to go to and from school alone, and cleaned up the mess her brother made when she returned home as usual, silently enduring her brother's pranks and her mother's indifference.
That day, she helped her brother clean up the room and prepared dinner before returning to her room to read. But before she finished reading the first page, her door was suddenly kicked open, and the tall and thin Lin Xiao walked over and snatched the book from her hand.
Lin Lanzhi looked up in surprise, only to see her brother frowning and saying unhappily, "It's so troublesome that you can't hear me!"
Her heart ached silently, but her expression was extremely calm. She looked at him and asked, "What's the matter?"
She knew her brother Lin Xiao very well. If there was nothing wrong, he would never step into her room.
"I heard that the famous star Mu Chuwei is studying in your school now, right? I want his autograph, go get one for me."
Lin Lanzhi carefully watched Lin Xiao's posture at this moment. He raised his chin slightly, looking superior, and his expression was matter-of-fact.
Her spoiled brother really doesn't even know how to ask for help. Maybe he just doesn't want to lower himself to beg his deaf sister who is used to being bullied.
She sighed secretly and immediately rejected his request tactfully: "Mu Chuwei doesn't come to school often, it's hard for me to contact him, I'm afraid I can't help you with this."
Lin Xiao immediately showed his displeasure and said, "He and you go to the same school, so it's easy for him to get an autograph. You just won't help me get it. You stingy guy, I'm going to tell my mom!"
Speak of the devil, and he will appear. Lin's mother, who had just returned from get off work, heard her son yelling, so she came over and asked, "Xiao'er, what's the matter with you being so loud? What do you want to tell your mother?"
Seeing his mother coming back, Lin Xiao immediately ran to her side, took her hand and said, "Mom, I asked my sister to help me get an autograph from a classmate at their school, but she refused!"
"Isn't it just an autograph?" Mother Lin frowned and looked at Lin Lanzhi, "Why would you be so reluctant ? Do you still regard him as your brother?"
"mom……"
Lin Lanzhi stood up and wanted to explain, but Lin Xiao said first: "Mom, I really admire that person. As long as I can get his autograph, I will definitely follow his example and study hard, and get a perfect score in the exam and come back to show you!"
When Lin's mother heard this, she couldn't hide her joy on her face. She patted the back of her son's hand and said softly, "My son is really motivated!"
Then, she let go of her son's hand and looked at Lin Lanzhi seriously, with unquestionable firmness and determination in her eyes: "This is just a small matter, you must help your brother do it no matter what, otherwise don't call me mom anymore!"
After saying that, she glanced at her daughter coldly and turned away.
Lin Lanzhi stood there in a daze, watching her mother leave indifferently, and Lin Xiao did not forget to make a smug face at her when he left.
She only felt a huge shadow looming over her tightly .
She really wanted to catch up with her mother and tell her that it was not that she did not consider Lin Xiao as her brother, but that no one in this family considered her a family member.
