Chapter 486: What’s It Got to Do with Me?
Ever since the habit of taking a phone to the shower was mentioned, the quirks Wei Yaoyao wrote about afterwards all rushed in a direction everyone found interesting.For example, [He might like the thrill of breathing again after suffocating], or [He likes to smell his clothes after taking them off], or even [He constantly flexes his abs anywhere and anytime].
Some were true, some weren’t, and Yu Xia almost made a wrong judgment a few times in between.
Xie Qingci stood there like a mannequin in a store window, with a blank face enduring all their curious and probing glances.
Finally, without any danger, they passed, securing the right to live in the small building, and Wei Yaoyao even got to live in a single room.
On the way back, Yu Xia asked Wei Yaoyao, "Didn’t you say you couldn’t think of anything? How did you write so much? Have you been watching Xie Qingci every day?"
Wei Yaoyao, walking leisurely with his hands crossed behind his head, replied, "Ah, back then he was the best-looking among the hundred people, everyone loves beauty, it’s normal to take a few more looks."
"This isn’t something you can figure out with just a few extra glances."
Her tone was faint, carrying a hint of suspicion.
Wei Yaoyao immediately mentioned the "observations" about others to express his innocent thoughts about Xie Qingci.
"That just means I have strong observational skills, and I don’t just know his habits. I also know Ning Yunchao must sing a song with his guitar before taking a bath, and Song Xi pushes his glasses up 800 times a day, only using his index finger."
Yu Xia pointed to herself: "What about me? We’ve spent quite a bit of time together, have you noticed any of my little quirks?"
"Actually, I have."
Wei Yaoyao gave a meaningful smile: "There was a time when you, Yu Xia, were surrounded by rumors, afraid to openly stare at good-looking people, only daring to sneak a glance and then another."
"..." Why does that sound a bit creepy.
"And at that time, it wasn’t just Xie Qingci you were looking at," Wei Yaoyao smartly added, "You glanced at anyone who was good-looking or a bit unique. For example, my hair caught your eye a few times."
Yu Xia stared at him for a second before quickly looking away.
"You noticed all that."
In fact, she had a strong suspicion that Wei Yaoyao had long known that she was looking at Xie Qingci, and like Song Xi, knew about her acquaintance with Xie Qingci.
But Wei Yaoyao was indeed a very clever person, never revealing what shouldn’t be said.
She smiled wider, and while leading them into the yard, she thoughtfully suggested to Wei Yaoyao: "Think about what you’d like to do in the next couple of days, fishing, shrimping, going to the market, anything goes, it’s pretty boring here."
Wei Yaoyao couldn’t think of anything, but he was good at entertaining himself, having brought his guitar to drag Xie Qingci into writing and singing songs together.
That wasn’t Yu Xia’s concern, she just continued to lounge around, and when tired of lounging, went out for a stroll.
Encountering Zheng Jinjin and Lan Hui also out for a boring wander, the three agreed to head to the market early the next morning.
Just the three girls, without any boys.
Because the scooter couldn’t fit three people, they pressured the show’s crew to provide a car.
When they got back, she told Xie Qingci about this plan.
Unexpectedly, Wei Yaoyao said, "Then I’ll go with you, I have a lot to buy."
"You just arrived, what do you need to buy?"
Xie Qingci said helplessly, "He went out for a bit and already arranged with some local students and Mo Yunchu to have a barbecue party and song live performance tomorrow night."
Yu Xia opened her mouth in awe, looking at Wei Yaoyao, "You really know how to stir things up."
He just arrived, didn’t even know two people, and already organized an event.
Truly a natural-born organizer.
She decisively decided, "Then let Xie Qingci take you tomorrow; I’ll go with Zheng Jinjin and the others in the show’s car, you buy your stuff, and we’ll shop around."
"Girls’ outing, I understand," Wei Yaoyao hooked his arm around Xie Qingci’s shoulder, "No worries brother, if your girlfriend doesn’t want you, I do."
Xie Qingci shrugged off his hand, not accepting his goodwill. Then leaned against Yu Xia, giving her a faint look.
Even looking boneless was handsome; Yu Xia placed her palm under his chin, leaned down, and gave him a kiss.
Wei Yaoyao quickly covered his eyes, but peeked through his fingers.
"Can you not be lovey-dovey in front of a single child? It’s very damaging to my mental health."
Xie Qingci: "You can avoid it."
"Did I come on the show to avoid it? Go ahead, kiss, I’ll watch, let’s see if you can keep going."
Yu Xia indeed couldn’t keep going, just a brief kiss, then she sat up properly without any further actions.
Xie Qingci lay against her without moving.
In a pose like a statue, Wei Yaoyao strangely found some warmth and sweetness in it.
The whole small building was filled with the stench of love.
He chose to ignore it and quickly went back to his own room.
Early to bed, early to rise to go to the market.
The town’s market didn’t have any trendy, flashy shops; Yu Xia, Zheng Jinjin, and Lan Hui weren’t there to look at new clothes but to take pictures and buy fruit.
They also heard about Wei Yaoyao organizing a party and went to the convenience store to buy snacks for the village kids.
On their way back, Mo Yunchu and others were making a barbecue grill by the roadside, surrounded by a group of laughing girls.
Yu Xia confirmed that Xie Qingci wasn’t fooling around with them, and returned to the small building relieved.
Later, a delicate-looking new guest came over to borrow something, Yu Xia handed it to her casually, she ran out excitedly and bumped right into Xie Qingci and Wei Yaoyao who were just pushing open the courtyard door.
Xie Qingci was in the front, seeing the two about to collide, the girl probably intended to brake in time, but her high heels didn’t cooperate, causing her to twist her foot and fall sideways, her face pale with a short shriek.
Wei Yaoyao quickly steadied her, and in front of him, Xie Qingci sidestepped to avoid her, lost his balance, and slammed against the iron gate, which clanged loudly as it intimately connected with the wall.
Yu Xia was startled, turning to see Xie Qingci stumble against the gate, sliding down to sit awkwardly on the ground.
The girl fell to the other side, leaving only Wei Yaoyao standing there awkwardly.
"...What just happened?"
Wei Yaoyao looked at Xie Qingci with a complex expression: "That scary? If you bumped into her, would Yu Xia really slaughter you?"
Xie Qingci hesitated to speak, got up but met Yu Xia’s scrutinizing gaze.
She asked, "What’s it got to do with me? You didn’t walk steady?"
She brushed off his clothes.
Wei Yaoyao helped the girl up and explained briefly, "None of them walked steadily, probably because both felt there was an invisible you in the middle staring at them."
She questioned again, "What’s it got to do with me?"
