Chapter 67: Will be better<blockquote>


    67th -Will be better</blockquote>


    When he returned that night, Chu Yu had a very richly detailed dream.


    It was daytime in the dream. Inside an empty ssroom were a ckboard covered with densely packed writing and curtains being blown by the wind. He and Lu Shi sat in thest row of the ssroom, kissing.


    He was very nervous as there were people constantly passing by outside the door. He was distracted, trying to distinguish the sounds. He guessed that there was the homeroom teacher, Old Ye, and also Dream-Ge and Zhang Yueshan who were passing by the door.


    Even more nervous now, Chu Yu had this feeling that in the next second, these people would slide open the ssroom door and walk in.


    But Lu Shi was holding him by the waist, no intention of letting go.


    When the <i>click</i> of the door lock sounded, the strings in Chu Yus heart suddenly stretched taut and he began to struggle.


    Chu Yu?


    When he opened his eyes and was met with Lu Shis almost-within-reach face, Chu Yu realized that hed been dreaming.


    Lu Shis arm was wrapped around his lower back, and the two of them were stuck very close to each other.


    Chu Yus vocal cords were dry. I-I was dreaming.


    A little ufortable, Chu Yu stealthily moved while praying in his heart that Lu Shi wouldnt find out.


    But his prayer didnt work.


    Lu Shi half-closed his eyes and rubbed his nose against the tip of Chu Yus nose. What did you dream of, for your reaction to be so big?


    Since he was awakened in the middle of the night, Lu Shis voice was very husky and low, with a fleeting final syble. However, it was as if a branch had been swept across the water, leaving ripples that couldnt be dissipated for a long time.


    Chu Yu thought it wasnt surprising that he had had such a dream. Lu Shi was like this, who could fucking resist!


    I dreamed we were kissing in the ssroom.


    Chu Yu licked his dry lips. There were many people passing by the door and I was quite nervous.


    It was a little hot. Chu Yu touched the corner of Lu Shis lips quickly and involuntarily whispered, Gege.


    Lu Shi lightly patted Chu Yus lower back with his hand. Hmm?


    Gege, kiss me.


    Lu Shis eyes instantly darkened as his lips moved and uttered something Chu Yu didnt hear clearly.


    It wasnt until Lu Shi bit his lips that Chu Yu could vaguely tell that what Lu Shi had just said seemed to have been something deadly?


    The next day, beginning from morning self-study, the whole ss was very giddy.


    The English teacher initially wanted to teach some new content, but decided to change it to listening practice. Old Ye was more direct. I know your hearts desire to fly to the auditorium early; where would you have the heart to listen to a pesky rotting old man like me? It is self-study, self-study. Take this time to finish your homework and then you can go crazy with having fun during this New Years Day holiday!


    After he finished speaking, he sat down on the chair, unscrewed his thermos cup, and slowly drank his malva nut-wolfberry tea with a look of enjoyment.


    Zhang Yueshan turned around and asked Chu Yu in a low voice, After watching the party for a while, can I just leave? Im going to take my girlfriend to watch a movie.


    When he mentioned the word girlfriend, he was embarrassed, but he asked again, I want to watch thetest release of that blockbuster sequel with her. Didnt you watch itst time, was it good?


    Chu Yu felt that this question was beyond the outline.When a question which couldnt be answered is met, this sentence is used to prevaricate. Can also be: beyond the scope of the sybus


    Although he sat in the movie theater for two hours, he really didnt know any of the developments.


    He bumped Lu Shi with his elbow. Lu Shi, was the movie we watchedst time good?


    Lu Shi gave an answer, I dont know.


    Lu Shi also didnt watch it?


    Chu Yu, who didnt have time to think about this, simply made-up a random reason. We both dozed off and didnt pay much attention to what was going on.


    Zhang Yueshan thought that since both of them fell asleep, the movie mustnt be good.


    Okay, then Ill switch to another one and search up its film reviews!


    When the sky turned dark, the school broadcast yed an exciting symphony version of Unity is Strength. After the shocked students ears went numb, the deans voice appeared.


    Students, we will now head to the auditorium ording to the sequence of ss, to participate in the New Years Day cultural performances. Students, please be sure to observe order


    Above and below came the vibration from the <i>dong dong dong</i> noises. Li Hua stared at the loudspeaker hanging on the wall. Case solved. The principal has recently changed his tastes and now prefers hot-blooded and sonorous music.


    Everyone recalled how bright the wake-up ringtone that had yed before the beginning of the school day, and they all expressed their deep sympathies.


    Jianing Privates auditorium was truly quiterge, and the design was also very superb and could be described as gold and jade in its glorious splendor. In any case, two words were disyed from inside to outside rich.


    Every time Chu Yu entered the ce, he had the illusion that the dazzle would blind his eyes.


    Because they came ording to year level, Chu Yus ss was the first to arrive in the entire second year. The third years were probably still in their ssrooms.


    There were many students and the speed of entry was slow. Chu Yu estimated that it would take less than half an hour to finish.


    On the big screen at the stage, Jianing Privates school song was ying in a loop. There was a lot of racket in the auditorium and several teachers tried to maintain order, but to no avail. They simply gave up in the end.


    The students were very excited.


    In fact, it didnt matter what kind of activity it was, as long as they didnt have to sit in the ssroom answering papers and doing homework, and they could y and have fun, everyone would be very enthusiastic.


    Dream-Ge looked around until he finally found where his girlfriend was sitting. He said with a face full of happiness, Isnt it silly to just wait in this seat for half an hour? I, your father, cant stand this grievance!


    Li Hua took out his cellphone and pulled in people. Friends, up for a game?


    Chu Yu had guessed they were going to y games. Considering he hadnt been ying in a long time, he was getting a little worried, so he quickly responded, Go go go, Ill join!


    After bringing together five people, Li Hua flipped through his phone. Come on, Ill create a room!


    Seeing the screen clearly, Dream-Ge burst out cursing. Wtf, why is it Gomoku?


    The way to simplicity, the greatest ingenuity, Gomoku is pure essence, the essence of chess skills!


    Li Hua urged, You all said you wanted to participate, no ones allowed to back out!


    Dream-Ge scratched the back of his head. Okay, okay, Gomoku it is. Its just to pass the time anyway, ying anything will be fine.


    After everyone downloaded the app, Li Hua opened a room and Chu Yu volunteered to be the first to y.


    Zhang Yueshan was worried. School Flower, do you know how to y? In the dorms, Li Hua has been practicing every day recently, he should be quite powerful.


    Chu Yu honestly replied, Im not so good at it, I only know the rule of five sub-connections.


    He then grabbed the hand of Lu Shi who was sitting next to him and proudly dered, But I possess a secret weapon!


    Dream-Geughed. Damn, School Flower, thats cheating! You practically have a nuclear-bomb-level secret weapon!


    It also caused Zhang Yueshan to smile. What secret weapon, its obviously more like the grandpa in fantasy novels who the protagonist carries around with him!


    Chu Yu pretended to roll up his sleeves. Comeee, Im going to beat the hell out of the front seaters today!


    After he finished speaking, Chu Yu leaned back and expectantly asked Lu Shi in a low voice, Can you beat the hell out of them?


    Lu Shis hand lightly patted Chu Yus lower back in a ce no one could see. Mm, of course.


    Chu Yu was the standard stinky chess basketFascinated by chess (or any chess-like game) but not very good at chess. This is Gomoku: , but after hearing this sentence, a soaring arrogance emerged in him such that he could crush everyone with the lift of a hand. Come and fight!


    At the start of the game, Chu Yu chose white and then dropped the first piece very casually.


    Lu Shi didnt speak. Chu Yu happily did what he wanted, until he was eaten by Li Hua many times and Lu Shi said, Move here.


    Chu Yu didnt think about it and just followed what Lu Shi said.


    After a couple exchanges, Dream-Ge, who was observing the game board, spoke, Why dont I understand what Lu-Shen is doing?


    Zhang Yueshan had been trained by Li Hua for a period of time and couldprehend a little bit. Lu-Shen is catching two invalids with one piece. The side who has the white pieces uses the invalid hand rule and enables one move to make the ck pieces side fall into a predicament of two invalid hands. In this situation, Li Hua cant defend from both sides.3Had to watch a couple of ytvids for this. So basically, in gomoku (or Five-in-a-Row), you have to line up 5 of your pieces to score points. Currently, Lu Shi is making up for all the loses by hindering Li Hua from lining up 5s by using one piece of his to block some of Li Huas foundations. Say, Li Hua has already 3 and 4 pieces lined up near each other, then Lu Shi uses an opportunity to intercept these with only one move. Hence, two invalids with one piece. Sammy: so this is basically the Connect 4 game but advanced lmao


    Student Chu Yu really is a stinky chess basket. Student Lu Shi has lost half the country to enemy hands, yet he can quickly reverse the situation and make aeback. Student Li Hua must be careful!


    So its like that!


    Dream-Ge suddenly returned to his senses. Old Ye? I mean, Teacher Ye, why are you here?


    Old Ye carried his thermos cup and leisurely answered, I am allowing you to celebrate the festival, but you are disallowing your teacher to celebrate with you?


    Dream-Ge was very afraid that Old Ye would drag him to chat for an hour and a half and quickly said, Of course not! I definitely dont have this notion!


    Soon, the game was over with Li Hua sighing. I was about to understand Lu-Shens approach, but School Flower made a few stinky moves! School Flower, I reasonably suspect that youre deliberately interfering with my thinking!


    Chu Yu arrogantly raised his chin. You guess!


    Fang Ziqi had been watching excitedly from the side. Ill y, Ill y the next round!


    At that moment, Lu Shis ringtone rang.


    Having a deep memory of this sound, Chu Yu said quickly, You guys y, Lu Shi and I will use the bathroom before the program starts!


    He said so, but the two of them didnt go to the bathroom at all.


    While avoiding making noise, Chu Yu familiarly exited from the back door of the auditorium.


    A gust of cold wind hit him fully in the face. Chu Yu shrank his neck and quickly located a ce to stand where the wind was blocked.


    Lu Shi took out his cell and handed Chu Yu the other earphone.


    After touching the pockets of his clothes, Chu Yu found that the warm baby he brought today had run out, so he simply ced his hands into Lu Shis pockets and intertwined them.


    The whistling cold wind filled the surroundings, and Fang Weiyuns voice came from the earphones.


    Fang Weiyuns emotions were a little out of control.


    Dr. Sun, that bitch! That bitch must die!


    Hearing this sentence, Chu Yus heart froze and he subconsciously looked at Lu Shi. He saw Lu Shi with his eyshes lowered, but without a fluctuation in his expression, so he continued to listen quietly.


    Did you know? Shes pregnant, huh, pregnant!


    Fang Weiyuns voice was very strange and light, but it was suppressing hatred and madness, making one feel horrified when they heard it.


    Dr. Sun, who was obviously very used to Fang Weiyuns mood swings, asked very calmly, Mrs. Lu, what happened? Is Iris pregnant?


    Fang Weiyun sneered then replied, Who else is there besides her? I was wondering how she dared to provoke me again and again, it turns out she has the man in the palm of her hands, coaxing him in circles! Do you know why I only have one son? Because Lu Shaochu had a vasectomy 17 years ago! He would rather undergo sterilization! He doesnt want to have a child with me!


    Chu Yu was shocked by the news.


    He tried to sort it out.


    17 years ago, Lu Shi shouldve been born not long ago. Why had Lu Shaochu done a vasectomy? If the reason was because he loved Jiang Yueman and insisted on Jiang Yueman, Chu Yu felt that this argument couldnt stand at all.


    Excluding this spection, it was possible that Lu Shaochu was disgusted by Fang Weiyuns murder and didnt want to have a child with her. But due to some reason or restriction, he couldnt get a divorce and whatnot, so he simply had surgery.


    Lu Shi had also said before that Lu Shaochu often changed lovers yet never worried about the issue of illegitimate children.


    Obviously, Dr. Sun didnt believe it to be true. Are you sure that the child Iris is carrying is indeed your husbands child?


    Yes, that bitch Iris told me personally that Lu Shaochu underwent another operation just to have a child with her!


    It wasnt known what Fang Weiyun was recalling as her tone became more deranged. That Lu Shaochus mind is full of love all day long! He was like this when he was young, for that so-called love, he


    Realizing that she could blurt out things she shouldnt say, Fang Weiyun stopped talking, before saying, What Iris said must be true, it must be! What to do, what to do, she should just go die! Die!


    Chu Yu abruptly held his breath and sure enough, the next second, he heard Fang Weiyun say in a sharp voice, She should die at the bottom of the river just like that woman, and be a female ghost under a bridge that can never reincarnate!


    Suddenly, Chu Yus fingers were clenched by Lu Shi inside the pocket.


    Chu Yu felt his heart beating a little faster.


    He recalled what was said. Fang Weiyun should be 99% referring to Jiang Yueman.


    Bottom of the river, under a bridge.


    This should mean that Jiang Yueman was thrown under a bridge after being killed on a rainy night. Or was drowned in a river under a bridge.


    But what did Fang Weiyun mean by never reincarnating?


    The call continued in the earphones.


    Fang Weiyun didnt restrain her resentment, but she reacted quickly and immediately remedied without a hitch. Iris, this bitch, will be punished! The Cheng familys lover who was raised outside, her car tumbled over a bridge for no reason! See, this is punishment!


    Dr. Sun began soothing Fang Weiyuns emotions with great experience.


    After some time, the phone was hung up and Chu Yu took out the earphone.


    He looked at Lu Shi without saying anything.


    It was Lu Shi who spoke first.


    Iris isnt pregnant, and Lu Shaochu hasnt undergone surgery.


    Chu Yu guessed, You asked Iris to say that?


    More or less.


    Lu Shi pinched and kneaded Chu Yus fingers. His voice was as if soaked in the cold frost of a winter night. She has strong intentions and is also very smart, she knows how to urately hit Fang Weiyuns weak points. Fang Weiyun had trouble with Lu Shaochu again, so Lu Shaochu had beening home less and less.


    Chu Yu understood.


    Fang Weiyun should be in a state of panic right now, fearing that her identity as Mrs. Lu would be reced and snatched away. The more afraid and frightened she was, the more shed be unable to think rationally, and the easier it was for her to reveal secrets.


    Every step Lu Shi took was extremely steady.


    He was like a hunter hidden in the dark, extremely patient.


    While allowing Lu Shi to y with his fingers, Chu Yu couldnt help but say, But, I mean if.


    He pursed his lips and continued with difficulty, What if we, we try every means possible and still cant find any evidence?


    If Jiang Yueman was drowned by Fang Weiyun in the water, it was highly likely that even her bones couldnt be found today after more than ten years.


    The smell of blood wouldve been buried by the dust and washed away by the rain and river, not leaving even a half inch trace.


    In the night, Lu Shis eyes were like polished, bright obsidian.


    With his fingers, he gently tidied Chu Yus messed up hair very seriously.


    Ive thought about that. Ive even thought that maybe everything was just my imagination. But I cant stand that theres a one in ten million chance that her skeleton was sunk to the bottom of an ice-cold river and covered in silt, while Im living in this world brightly and neatly, without any shadows in my heart.


    There was the sound of music drifting out of the auditorium, faint and indistinct.


    After a few seconds of silence, Chu Yu raised his face upward amid the wind and kissed the end of Lu Shis eye. Then, he grasped Lu Shis hand firmly. Lets go, Lu-Ge, the event has already started inside.


    After pulling the person for two steps, Chu Yu turned around. Countless words came to the borders of his mouth, he turned them several times, but still failed to utter a sentence in the end.


    Finally, Chu Yu told Lu Shi with a smile, Everything will be better next year!
