Chapter 205 I want to break the awkward silence!
chapter 205
Lu Linshen was stunned for a moment. He asked, unwilling to give up, "You...don't know this?"
Meng Youcheng felt very confused. Why did he suddenly say something like "what la la"?
He shook his head, slightly embarrassed. "I don't know."
Lu Linshen stopped watering the plants with the showerhead. The boy stood there, looking confused, swallowing hard. Heaven knows what he was thinking. Suddenly, he said, "You know about read-already replies, how come you don't know about this?"
Meng Youcheng was visibly stunned for a second...
"The 'read and reply randomly' thing is... a meme I learned from short videos. As for what you're talking about... what's that... is it also a meme?"
Lu Linshen lowered his head, seemingly only now realizing that the other person was different from him; the average straight man wouldn't be able to get this Yesmora...
My original intention was to lighten the mood, make him laugh, or perhaps spark more conversation because of this joke, but now it seems like I was going to do something unnecessary.
He looked at the flowers beside him with a troubled expression. "Brother Cheng...you should go back first. I'll come back to eat after I've finished watering the flowers."
Meng Youcheng noticed the displeasure on the boy's face, but he didn't ask any further questions and chose to leave...
As they approached the room, Meng Youcheng couldn't help but glance back...
Lu Linshen, holding the showerhead, looked troubled. He stood there for several moments, sighing, before resuming his work.
Meng Youcheng was stunned...
This domineering CEO was indeed different from what I had imagined. Not only did he not have a temper, but his emotions were also very stable. Apart from saying some inexplicable things, there were almost no flaws.
It's a real shame, though, that he couldn't understand what the other person was saying at all.
Meng Youcheng stood there thinking for a while, but finally decided to leave and went back to the bathroom to wash up.
……
During dinner, Lu Linshen put down the showerhead and went to the living room...
Without even thinking, he started changing his clothes...
In public...
When Meng Youcheng came out after washing up, he happened to see the other person shirtless. His skin was very fair and his muscles were very well defined. He didn't have thick muscles; instead, he had thin muscles that looked quite pleasing to the eye.
As soon as he came out, he met Lu Linshen's gaze...
The world fell silent for a few seconds. The two of them stared in disbelief, clearly neither of them able to process what had just happened...
Lu Linshen: "Ah... I'm sorry..."
Meng Youcheng: "I'm sorry..."
They spoke at almost the same time, but what they said was strange. Why were they apologizing?
It's incomprehensible, even Meng Youcheng, the person involved, didn't understand it. It's really... inexplicable...
Lu Linshen immediately started putting on his clothes. After he was dressed, he hurriedly explained, "I'm sorry... I'm used to it, I've always been like this, but don't worry, I'll change in the future..."
Meng Youcheng was stunned. "You're joking... This is your home, there's no need for you to apologize to me, it's my fault..."
Just then, the butler came out with the meal. "What's wrong? Did something happen? I heard you two apologizing to each other inside?"
Lu Linshen was about to explain when Meng Youcheng spoke first, "It's my fault. I came out after washing up and just happened to see the president changing clothes..."
The butler looked puzzled. "They're all boys anyway, what's the problem?"
Um... yeah?
Is there a problem?
They're both boys, so I have the same things he has. Even if I accidentally see him, what's the big deal? I've seen boys changing clothes before... I often peek at my roommates, but I never felt embarrassed back then, did I?
Why would that happen...?
Meng Youcheng was stunned when he heard this, as was Lu Linshen.
So, why did it develop like this?
Butler: "President, Mr. Meng, dinner is ready."
……
The atmosphere at the dinner table was incredibly awkward. Lu Linshen clearly wanted to break the silence, but he couldn't find a way to do so. As for Meng Youcheng, he began to doubt himself, wondering why he had become like this. Could it be that the saying, "One who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and one who stays near ink gets stained black," really applies to him?
Because he was too close to this silly CEO, he inherited that silliness from him.
Meng Youcheng looked up at him...
Before we knew it, our eyes met again.
Meng Youcheng fled without a second thought, and the other party obviously did the same.
Wait a minute... why hide?
So what if they see it? They're all boys, what's the problem?
Meng Youcheng raised his head again and looked at Lu Linshen...
Lu Linshen kept his head down, clearly afraid of making eye contact with him again, so he didn't dare to look up.
Meng Youcheng stared intently at him...
Look over here, look over here! I'm fucking going to break this awkward silence today! I'm fed up... If I have to live in this awkward silence every day, I'd rather be dead!
Lu Linshen felt extremely uncomfortable, but he refused to look up, probably because he had noticed something.
Meng Youcheng didn't dare blink, afraid of missing the chance to make eye contact with him...
Several minutes passed, but nothing came of it.
I can't take it anymore...
Meng Youcheng suddenly stood up, quickly walked to Lu Linshen's side, picked up a stool next to him, and sat down beside him...
Lu Linshen must have sensed something, but he didn't react at all...
Without a second thought, Meng Youcheng lifted Lu Linshen's head. Lu Linshen initially resisted, as the head was quite heavy, but eventually gave in and relaxed...
Meng Youcheng cupped his face in his hands, forcing him to look into his eyes, "Little Deer..."
The moment their eyes met, Lu Linshen's entire face turned red, all the way to his ears. His full head of white hair was so dazzling, and his eyes seemed to sparkle like stars...
Meng Youcheng said in a low voice, "Look at me."
Lu Linshen had no way to avoid him and could only let him do as he pleased, forced to meet his gaze.
Whether it was a conditioned reflex or something else, as soon as Meng Youcheng cupped his face, his thumb began to gently rub the boy's cheek. It felt very comfortable, and with his face flushed and his skin hot, the sensation was even better...
Meng Youcheng slowly exhaled and asked gently, "Is there something you want to tell me? Just say it directly, there's no need to hide anything. I won't mind, speak boldly. Don't worry, no matter what you say, I won't dislike you."
Lu Linshen acted strangely, clearly having something to say, so Meng Youcheng was particularly curious about what he wanted to say.
"I……"
Lu Linshen's prominent Adam's apple bobbed slightly. "Brother Cheng...you...I..."
Meng Youcheng gently touched his face with his thumb. "Relax, just say what you want to say..."
"do you like me?"
He asked the question very quickly and in a soft voice, but Meng Youcheng heard it.
Meng Youcheng was stunned. "Huh? I...?"
Lu Linshen seemed to have thought of something and immediately retorted, "You look a lot like my white moonlight. He doesn't like me, and I hope you can like me, so Brother Cheng... do you like me?"
Meng Youcheng's restless thumb finally stopped...
She stared at him in disbelief, like a mentally challenged infant...
He may seem shy on the surface, but he's really straightforward when he speaks. He says what he means and he's damn blunt about it!
Lu Linshen seemed to have gotten an answer. He lowered his head and pulled away from his hand. "I understand..."
Meng Youcheng patted his head. "I... just arrived here, and this is the first time I've met you. If I were to say I like you, it would definitely be a lie, so..."
A glimmer of hope ignited in Lu Linshen's eyes as he looked up at him. "So... I have a chance, right?"
Meng Youcheng gently stroked his white hair, "You're very good-looking, super handsome..."
Lu Linshen smiled.
Meng Youcheng also smiled.
Since it's the last instance anyway, praising him won't hurt. Besides, he's so cute and handsome, so there's nothing wrong with praising him.
Their eyes met, an unspoken tension filling the air...
Meng Youcheng asked the question that was on the other person's mind, and then prepared to return to his seat to continue eating...
Just then, Lu Linshen suddenly reached out and grabbed his hands, slowly raising them so that he could hold his face again...
"Brother Cheng...is my face...very hot?"
His voice was gentle, his eyes sparkled, and with his full head of white hair, he looked very handsome.
Meng Youcheng was stunned. "Hmm..."
"My face gets flushed easily, and it gets hot easily. Is my face very red right now? Your hands are so cold, could you touch them a little more? That would make me feel more comfortable, okay, Brother Cheng?"
I couldn't resist...
What the hell is wrong with me?
Why do I keep looking into his eyes? Why do I feel so helpless?
"good………"
What did I say? What the hell did I say?
Why is it considered good?
Just then, Lu Lin gazed deeply into his eyes, her head slowly moving forward...
They're about to kiss!
[Let me briefly add something. This instance is different from the previous four. According to the plot, the previous instances were adapted from novels, while this one was written by 002 and 001, so the character settings are different. As mentioned before, the protagonist's soul has always been the same person, and the character setting presented in this instance is the most consistent with him. However, he's not shy; he's just naturally reserved towards Meng Youcheng. The main reason is that he's using his original persona, so he can't be playful. But it's different with others; he'll be different once he gets to know them.]
