"Hmm."
Yu Chen still nodded.
"..."
Nangong Na helplessly glanced at the girl next to her, who looked as obedient as a doll, watching her slowly scoop a third of the ice porridge from Yu Chen’s hand, and then sighed softly: "Do you like that classmate Motan?"
"Hmm."
"Do you want to marry him?"
"Hmm."
"What’s the child’s name?"
"Hmm."
"Mo Hmm?"
"Hmm... Hmm?!"
Finally, Yu Chen snapped out of her daydreaming state, startled: "No!"
"Oh?"
Nangong Na gleefully blinked and playfully poked Yu Chen’s quickly reddening cute face: "Not named Mo Hmm?"
"I wasn’t thinking about having kids with him!"
Blushing, Yu Chen pretended to bite Nangong Na’s finger, and after the latter quickly withdrew her hand, she lightly exclaimed: "Ah, why is my ice porridge missing so much!"
Although she was also quite timid and introverted, compared to Yu Chen who was rather lively, Nangong Na smacked her lips and laughed: "It evaporated."
"Nana, don’t say that, even my big brother won’t be fooled..."
Yu Chen pouted, then took a pack of tissues from her pocket, gently wiping away the green jam hanging at the corner of the other’s mouth: "If you’re going to sneak some, at least destroy the evidence."
"Hehe."
Nangong Na comfortably squinted her eyes, only laughing after enjoying Yu Chen’s mouth-wiping service: "Shall I buy you another bowl?"
"Yes! I want strawberry this time!"
Yu Chen immediately beamed a particularly contagious happy smile, nodding forcefully: "The weather is too hot, I want something cool to eat!"
Nangong Na glanced at her with annoyance and tugged at her high collar: "Don’t blame everything on the weather! Chenchen, look for yourself, is there any girl in the mall dressed as heavily as you!"
"Eh? Is there?"
Yu Chen blinked, looked down at her outfit which wasn’t thick but definitely couldn’t be called refreshing, muttering softly: "I think it’s okay..."
"What do you mean by okay!"
Nangong Na grabbed Yu Chen’s hand seriously: "Xiao Qian said the meaning of summer is for girls to boldly show off their legs."
Yu Chen giggled, lightly bumping Nangong Na’s forehead: "Only Nana would take Xiao Qian’s nonsense as the ultimate truth."
"But Xiao Qian is very popular."
Nangong Na stuck out her tongue in defense: "Big brother and Mimi love imitating Xiao Qian!"
"They... just want to be popular with boys... right?"
Yu Chen scratched her cheek awkwardly, changing the subject: "Speaking of which, Nana, didn’t you say you were worried about fitting in with everyone? I think it’ll be fine. You were there during that online meetup."
"Yeah, that’s true; everyone seemed nice, Xiaoge was particularly lively and kind, Xiao Island felt like an artsy girl, as for the boys..."
Nangong Na nodded earnestly, then mischievously looked down: "Hmm, none paid special attention to your chest, so they must be well-mannered!"
Yu Chen: "..."
"Ehey~"
Nangong Na made a playful face, trying to pass the moment.
Considering her previous words were filled with jokes but had few points to refute, Yu Chen let her slide without further comment.
"Oh, by the way!"
Yu Chen clapped her hands in realization: "There’s someone you haven’t met yet!"
"Eh?"
Nangong Na paused, then asked curiously: "Who? Boy or girl? How are they?"
"Met during a gathering, ah, no, he missed the first dinner."
Yu Chen lightly tapped her thin lower lip, recalling: "He’s a boy, named Cui Xiaoyu, he’s... well... very tall."
Nangong Na burst out laughing, waving her hand: "What do you mean ’very tall’, Chenchen? You talked about Motan for at least an hour, why discriminate so clearly?"
"Ugh!"
Yu Chen was momentarily speechless, and after a while, she murmured: "But Xiao Yu’s height is really impressive..."
Nangong Na covered her mouth and chuckled: "Yes, yes, very tall, very tall, and then? Apart from being tall?"
"Very nice, skilled at gaming, he’s on the rankings in The Realm of Innocence..."
Yu Chen lightly tapped her little fist, about to inform Nangong Na about the invincibility of Cordova, but she was interrupted by the visibly uninterested Nangong Na.
"It’s irrelevant, Chenchen, you know I can’t understand all these details."
Christine Yuk, who nearly cast a shadow over Evergreen Studio and the Archaeologist Association in City of Gold, spread her hands innocently: "I’m not Mimi who follows all those ranks. I joined just to play with you all and enjoy the scenery."
Even with Yu Chen’s gentle personality, Nangong Na’s comments held a small Versailles air, making one want to flick her head or tickle her, though hearing her honestly speak such words left no doubt; she’s a timid, ordinary scenic enthusiast.
Unlike Nangong Na, Yu Chen, who should’ve been more laid-back, found herself recently eager to improve or at least become more useful.
She didn’t know why...
"Well, anyway, Xiao Yu is pretty nice."
Yu Chen clapped her hands lightly, concluding with a tone of finality.
"Hmm..."
Nangong Na pictured a figure resembling Anton, tall and kind-hearted, nodding gently: "Yes, nice."
Yu Chen smiled softly, then took out her phone to check the time, speaking seriously: "Oh, by the way, if we want to catch a movie, we should hurry; I have plans tonight and can’t return to the dorm too late!"
"Alright, alright~"
Nana, knowing it was likely related to someone, nodded in resignation and affectionately linked arms with Yu Chen: "Let’s go, let’s get your ice porridge first~"
"Strawberry flavor!"
"Yes, yes, strawberry flavor."
"Hehe."
...
Real-time PM18:47
Having watched the movie, Yu Chen and Nangong Na joyfully carried various large bags, hurriedly heading into the Youth Road Metro Station entrance B opposite Da Yue City, chatty and laughing as they made their way home.
Meanwhile --
Orange Rhythm Great Jade City 2F
"I’m sorry, sir."
The ice porridge shop girl shrugged her shoulders at a tall but not burly, scholarly-looking pale young man: "Our store..."
"Hu Ha... Hu Ha... Hu Ha..."
Cui Xiaoyu, panting heavily from running wildly, supported his knees and spoke deeply: "I know, your store is the most famous, best-tasting ice porridge shop in City B; that big-chested blogger recommended it."
The originally sweet-smiling girl rolled her eyes, expressionlessly saying: "Yes, because our store is famous, please come earlier next time, we’re sold out."
"Sold out?"
"Sold out."
"Really sold out!?"
"Really sold out, the mall’s almost closing."
"Then why did I tire myself under the hot sun for hours!"
"Why didn’t you wake up earlier?"
"I logged off early yesterday and kept watching videos of the big-chested blogger sister, accidentally slept till noon."
"Have some sense."
"No, you can’t say that, it’s actually... ah sorry, I need to answer a call."
"Please, go ahead."
"Hello? Dad? What’s going... Damn! Why are you yelling at me! What’s going on again!"
