Chapter 534 The Control Group 12 in a Sweet Novel of Unrequited Love

Yun Qing chose a Chinese restaurant. When the waiter led the two to their table, Yun Qing quickly glanced at Gu Yun, and with a hint of her own cunning, said casually:

"Senior, let's sit together, it'll be easier to order."

Gu Yun, who was hesitating before taking a seat, immediately nodded and said, "Okay."

Then he walked up to her.

The two sat down next to each other, moving closer with a slightly reserved air, and looked at the menu the waiter had given them.

The waitress wasn't surprised; they were just a lovey-dovey young couple. However, because the two were so good-looking, she still glanced at them a couple more times.

After the two ordered, she quickly picked up the menu and left.

The two people sitting together felt a little awkward and kept drinking their milk tea.

Yun Qing: Wow~ It's delicious!

Gu Yun: Why isn't she rubbing against my knee anymore?

Gu Yun waited for a while, then became impatient and began to struggle with her inner turmoil.

[No! That's incredibly rude!]

[She rubbed against me last time, so it shouldn't be a problem if I rub against her a little.]

[She's timid; it would scare her.]

[She rubbed against me last time.]

[What if she thinks you're frivolous? Did you forget she said you lack boundaries?]

[She patronized me last time!]

[She's not trying to get close to you today!]

[I'll just touch her briefly; if she moves away, I won't touch her again.]

[That's indecent!]

[I'm a scoundrel!]

Gu Yun, the rogue, sipped his milk tea nonchalantly. Apart from his slightly red ears, he still looked like the aloof school heartthrob.

But under the table, his legs slowly turned toward Yun Qing until his knees touched hers.

He lowered his eyes and drank his milk tea, remaining calm and composed.

Yun Qing, who was obsessed with drinking milk tea, initially didn't react to such touching.

After taking a couple more sips of milk tea, she realized someone had bumped into her and instinctively flinched away.

Then, realizing that the person next to her was Gu Yun, she quickly moved closer.

Fortunately, she was quick enough, otherwise Gu Yun would have sadly pulled his leg back, and who knows if the little hooligan in his mind would have cried.

Yun Qing glanced at him discreetly and saw that he looked perfectly normal, as if he hadn't noticed anything. She couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Gu Yun seems a bit oblivious! He's so insensitive to physical contact."

If you encounter someone with ulterior motives, won't they take advantage of you?

For example, someone like her.

Yun Qing was a little worried for a moment, but when she thought that she was the one who was benefiting now, she was secretly happy.

Moreover, she wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Gu Yun looked even more handsome than usual today!

The two sat with their knees together, each holding a cup of milk tea and drinking it, neither daring to look at the other.

The two of them only relaxed a little after the food was served.

This meal together was different from the last one. Last time, there were many people, and they were silent, but it was still quite lively.

But now it's just the two of them, and they haven't said a word, which is very strange.

So Yunqing started making conversation, introducing the dishes on the table to him, urging him to eat, and discussing the dishes with him.

Gu Yun's aloof persona is not fake; he is simply a person who doesn't talk much.

However, he always responded when Yun Qing spoke to him, without showing the slightest impatience.

So although Yunqing was babbling incoherently and felt a little annoyed, she didn't feel embarrassed or ashamed.

There was no awkward silence between the two.

Yun Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Gu Yun was quite easy to get along with.

He's such a nice person, no wonder she likes him so much!

Her eyes were bright when she looked at Gu Yun, and once she relaxed, she spoke to him much more naturally.

During the conversation, he also subtly tried to find out Gu Yun's preferences.

Gu Yun was very cooperative, answering all the questions asked, and then secretly inquiring back.

The meal was quite fruitful for both of them; they learned more about each other and their relationship grew much closer.

Both of them left the restaurant feeling satisfied.

The weather is starting to get cooler now, and you'll need to wear a jacket when it's shady.

However, the temperature rose a bit today, and it was midday, so most pedestrians on the street were wearing short sleeves, shorts, and skirts.

Yunqing wore a dress to look her best for the date; the hemline was just above her knees.

Gu Yun had other plans. He casually took out his phone to check the time.

She was already preparing to speak when, as she lowered her eyes, she noticed a red mark on the outside of Yun Qing's knee, which stood out against her fair skin.

Gu Yun was stunned for a moment before realizing that it was left from when their knees were together the whole time they were eating.

He hurriedly looked away, his neck turning red.

He had been so focused on getting closer to her, and because he was wearing long pants, he hadn't realized that he was touching Yun Qing's bare skin.

His Adam's apple bobbed, and he cursed himself inwardly for being a scoundrel. He swallowed back the words that were about to come out, and his usually sharp mind became somewhat muddled.

Just then, someone ran over playfully. Gu Yun snapped out of her daze and, fearing that Yun Qing would be bumped into, raised her hand to protect her.

He tactfully avoided touching Yun Qing, but the half-hug gesture was quite ambiguous to outsiders.

In particular, Yun Qing had ulterior motives and quietly moved closer to Gu Yun, but Gu Yun neither dodged nor avoided her, and even subconsciously reduced the protective circle formed by her arms.

Yu You was standing in the noodle shop, pouring tea for customers. She was facing the door and saw two people walking by, their posture intimate.

She froze, her mind going blank for a moment.

Are they... together?

Her eyes instantly welled up with tears, and she lowered her head, at a loss for what to do.

She knew perfectly well that she shouldn't have any expectations; the gap between them was so vast—he was so dazzling, while she was so ordinary.

But seeing him with someone else still made her very sad; it felt like a huge stone was pressing on her chest, making it hard to breathe.

As her tears began to fall uncontrollably, a customer who had been laughing and talking with his friends in front of her suddenly screamed.

Lost in her grief, Yu You didn't notice that her teacup was already full and kept pouring more. The scalding tea overflowed and spilled down the table onto the customer's lap.

Chaos erupted in the noodle shop, and Yu You, already heartbroken, lost her part-time job and incurred medical expenses.

The series of blows caused Yu You to break down emotionally. She apologized and cried uncontrollably.

The customer just felt incredibly annoyed; she was injured and hadn't even cried yet! What had she done to deserve this?!

Yun Qing and Gu Yun were completely unaware of the chaos in the noodle shop, and they didn't even know Yu You.

After walking a distance, Gu Yun lowered her arm, but the distance between them did not increase; their arms kept touching as they walked.

But just as they could keep their knees pressed together the entire time during a meal, they now stubbornly maintain this distance.

As Yun Qing lowered her eyes, she could see her skirt constantly brushing against his trouser leg as she walked. That subtle sense of intimacy made the little voice in her head want to cover her face, stomp her feet, and scream.

Aaaaaaah! Gu Yun! Gu Yun! Gu Yun! Even if we take a step back, can't he just be my husband?!

After a moment of hesitation, Gu Yun finally spoke, "Are you busy this afternoon?"

"what?"

Yun Qing looked up at him, blinked blankly for a moment before realizing what he was talking about, and shook her head firmly, "It's nothing."

Gu Yun asked her, "Then even if something happens, it must be made to seem like nothing is happening!"

"Then shall I treat you to a movie?"

Yun Qing immediately nodded happily, "Okay!"

Hehe... He's already taken me to the movies, so how far are we from getting married?
