The Romance Extras Turned Out to Be a Yuri Story - Chapter 35
In the hospital, Zhang Qiu was lost in thought.
Hearing Lin Luoluo say that Yi Yushu was holding a lecture at the school today made her restless.
Yi Yushu…
Zhang Qiu’s brow furrowed into a “Sichuan” character (three vertical lines).
She was very familiar with this older schoolmate.
Yi Yushu was the previous year’s student union vice president, and Zhang Qiu had worked alongside her for two years.
She could be said to know this senior very well.
Since high school, the senior had been submitting articles to various magazines, and she started writing novels in college. Her first novel was a campus romance story, and it was said that the male lead was based on her boyfriend. Later, she wrote “Beyond Time” whose heroine was a ragpicker. During a break, Yi Yushu found a ragpicker and wandered with her for a holiday. And later, when writing “Me and My Love” she found Zhang Qiu.
The heroine, whose parents died young, grew up and found her father’s diary to her mother when she moved house. She used it to explore her parents’ love, retrace their footsteps, and see the roads they once walked and the scenery they viewed.
It was a great book that moved countless people, but it would have been better if the heroine’s prototype hadn’t been Zhang Qiu.
Zhang Qiu was uneasy.
The phone in her hand vibrated twice, and Zhang Qiu looked down to see a message from Lin Luoluo.
She hesitated for a moment before asking: [Where are you?]
When Lin Luoluo saw the message, she was already sitting next to Yi Yushu.
When they first entered the restaurant, Lin Xiangdong was actively taking charge. She didn’t know how it happened, but although he wanted to sit next to Yi Yushu, Yi Yushu ended up sitting next to Lin Luoluo. Then the assistant sat right next to Yi Yushu, and the only man present had to sit in the remaining empty seat.
Lin Luoluo felt guilty.
Zhang Qiu had just told her to stay away from Yi Yushu, and now she was out to dinner with her.
[I’m eating, with my brother.]
Lin Luoluo added an extra sentence that sounded like an explanation.
Zhang Qiu quickly realized: [Is Yi Yushu next to you?]
Lin Luoluo had just picked up her cup to drink water and nearly choked to death.
Lin Xiangdong complained, “You can’t even drink a cup of water without something going wrong, how old are you, Lin Luoluo?”
Yi Yushu smiled and patted Lin Luoluo’s back: “No matter how old you are, you’ll choke if you play with your phone while drinking water.”
Lin Luoluo felt a little awkward, coughed twice, turned sideways, and pulled away from Yi Yushu’s hand, “I’m going to the restroom.”
Yi Yushu looked at her hand left hanging in the air, slightly surprised.
The little schoolmate was quite sensitive.
The assistant spoke up: “I need to go too, let’s go together.”
Lin Luoluo followed the assistant to the restroom. She stood at the faucet and washed her hands, the cold water washing away the irritation in her heart.
She really wanted to see Zhang Qiu.
It was what she had wanted to do since she woke up, but it had been delayed by various trivial matters until now.
Lin Luoluo stared blankly at the sparkling water, while the assistant was touching up her makeup beside her.
Although Lin Luoluo couldn’t make out her appearance, her intuition told her this was a very beautiful sister, but her temperament was too unique; following behind Senior Yi, she was like a shadow. Perhaps Senior Yi’s light was too strong, shielding the sun’s rays from her.
“He Qing,” the assistant suddenly spoke.
Lin Luoluo looked at her in confusion.
“My name is He Qing.” He Qing looked at Lin Luoluo in the mirror.
Lin Luoluo had a delicate and cute appearance, with small features, a face no bigger than a palm, youthful and beautiful, full of collagen, and round eyes, which naturally carried an innocent feeling when looking at people due to the blunt, round corners of her eyes.
Lin Luoluo nodded.
Oh, she was just saying her name.
Lin Luoluo thought, indeed, they hadn’t exchanged names.
He Qing elegantly washed her hands, pulled out a paper towel from the side, and then dried them with a hand dryer. Then she took out her phone, showing the QR code to add a friend.
“Add me. If Yi Yushu harasses you, tell me anytime.”
Lin Luoluo: ???
Lin Luoluo: Huh? Harassment?
He Qing kept her hand raised.
Lin Luoluo felt embarrassed. She flicked the water from her hands and clumsily took out her phone. The fingerprint unlock didn’t work because of the water, so she slid the screen and entered the password in a flurry, but after several attempts, she successfully locked her phone.
He Qing silently pulled out a paper towel and handed it to her. Lin Luoluo awkwardly took it, wiped the water from her hands and phone, and then scanned the code to add her as a friend.
“Let’s go, the dishes should be served.”
Lin Luoluo followed silently, the atmosphere between them awkward.
When they returned, Lin Xiangdong had somehow moved to Lin Luoluo’s seat. Lin Luoluo looked around and went straight to sit beside the assistant, successfully moving away from Yi Yushu.
Yi Yushu raised an eyebrow at the distance between her and Lin Luoluo and asked Lin Xiangdong, who was still trying to find a topic: “Didn’t we order one more dish? I remember this restaurant’s dish is very delicious, I specifically ordered it for you.”
Lin Xiangdong, the sycophant, was indeed quick to catch on and immediately stood up to ask. Only then did Yi Yushu smile sweetly and wave to Lin Luoluo, “Luoluo, I want to ask you something.”
Lin Luoluo’s radar blared a warning, especially since she had guaranteed Zhang Qiu repeatedly that she would only eat and absolutely would not have deep contact with Yi Yushu.
She smiled foolishly and tugged at the corner of the assistant’s sleeve next to her.
Didn’t you say I should find you if Senior Yi harassed me? Help! He Qing!
“She’s fine sitting here.” He Qing said coldly, “We still have to go to the publishing house this afternoon. Boss, the cover and typesetting for your book are out.”
Yi Yushu was indeed drawn to work.
“It’s out already? That’s fast this time.”
“Did they meet all the requirements I made? The paper can’t be substandard. I was very dissatisfied with the sample they sent last time.”
“It’s been communicated. There shouldn’t be any mistakes this time.”
Lin Luoluo quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Yi Yushu’s approach made her feel uneasy.
Lin Xiangdong returned, confused: “The waiter said our dishes are all served.”
“Then maybe I remembered incorrectly.” Yi Yushu smiled, “Everyone’s hungry, let’s eat.”
It was an uncomfortable meal. The food was delicious, but Lin Luoluo was anxious. After they finished, Lin Xiangdong still wanted to drive Yi Yushu, but fortunately, He Qing refused, saying they had driven themselves.
Lin Xiangdong added Yi Yushu’s contact information, smiling like an idiot.
Lin Luoluo couldn’t stand it anymore and angrily slapped Lin Xiangdong’s arm.
“If you don’t leave! I’ll take a taxi myself!”
“Go, go, go! Of course, we’re going!” Lin Xiangdong straightened his face, “Brother will take you.”
Once in the car, Lin Luoluo was still angry. She hugged her arms, pouted, and turned to look out the window, unwilling to acknowledge her stinky brother, who forgot his sister for beauty.
Lin Xiangdong tried to placate her: “It’s my fault, think about it, it’s not easy for your brother to see Senior Yi. She’s a successful person in society now, and I’ve just started out. I was just a little too excited.”
Lin Luoluo snorted: “A little too excited? You were practically a lapdog!”
Lin Xiangdong wasn’t angry about being called a dog.
“Yes, yes, yes, I’m Lin Dog, so you’re Lin Little Dog?”
“Stinky brother!” Lin Luoluo was so angry that she punched Lin Xiangdong with her little fist. Lin Xiangdong took advantage of the fact that he was driving and teasingly said, “Hit me harder, it feels good.”
Lin Luoluo was furious but didn’t dare to use real force. After all, the driver was driving, and she didn’t want to get into an accident on the way to see Zhang Qiu, so she had to hug her arms and sulk.
When they arrived at the hospital, before Lin Xiangdong could even fully stop the car, she grabbed her bag and jumped out, startling Lin Xiangdong. He yelled, “Hey, I was just kidding, you don’t have to be so angry, do you? Don’t you care about your life?”
Lin Luoluo had already run into the inpatient department.
When she arrived, Zhang Qiu had just finished talking with her teacher, Pei Qin.
Pei Qin had a court hearing today and couldn’t visit her, so she called instead. Zhang Qiu expressed her desire to be discharged early, but Pei Qin told her to rest well.
“You’re only an intern. Although work is important, the world won’t stop turning without you. The position by my side will always be reserved for you once you recover.”
Zhang Qiu was just disappointed that she wouldn’t be able to observe the teacher’s court hearing.
When Lin Luoluo came in, Zhang Qiu was about to get out of bed. Lin Luoluo bounced in happily.
“Sister, did you miss me?”
Zhang Qiu was stunned for a moment, then a smile involuntarily appeared on her face.
“How did you come so quickly? I thought you would still be eating for a while.”
She only said nice things to coax her.
Zhang Qiu didn’t realize she was being coaxed into a bright smile.
“Where are you going, Sister?” Lin Luoluo asked.
“To get the report and check the stomach bleeding. If it’s better, I can be discharged tomorrow,” Zhang Qiu said lightly.
Lin Luoluo was a little nervous: “Don’t you need to stay a few more days? Sister’s condition looked serious at the time.”
She looked at Zhang Qiu with anxious concern.
Zhang Qiu avoided her overly bright eyes, “It’s fine. The doctor said it’s a minor issue, and the situation is not serious.”
“Then I’ll go get it. Sister is still sick and needs more rest.” Lin Luoluo wanted to keep Zhang Qiu in the room. Zhang Qiu was torn between laughter and tears: “I’m not that fragile. I’ve been lying down all day; I want to get up and walk around.”
“Then let’s go together!” Lin Luoluo excitedly and carefully supported Zhang Qiu’s arm. Zhang Qiu felt it was too awkward, turned her head, pulled her hand out, and held Lin Luoluo’s small hand.
“Let’s go.”
Lin Luoluo blushed.
The slightly cool touch from her palm stirred her heart. She stared at Zhang Qiu blankly, almost forgetting how to walk, stumbling like someone learning to walk again.
The check-up report needed to be picked up at another examination building. The two were not in a hurry and walked slowly through the hospital. Lin Luoluo wished the time could slow down even more, but it was immediately broken by someone.
Lin Xiangdong went to the ward and found it empty, so he immediately called Lin Luoluo.
“Why are you gone?”
Lin Luoluo looked annoyed at Zhang Qiu, who was waiting beside her. Why did she put her phone in her right pocket? Because it was inconvenient to hold the phone, Zhang Qiu let go of her hand. Lin Luoluo was annoyed that she was interrupted when she picked up the phone.
“If I’m gone, why don’t you look for me?”
Lin Xiangdong was confused: “Didn’t I just call you to look for you?”
Lin Luoluo snorted, “Calling is looking? The hospital is only so big. Can’t you walk around more! All you do is call!”
“The phone was invented to be used! Lin Luoluo, I’m saying, are you still angry? If you have such a big temper, who would dare to want you later!” Lin Xiangdong suddenly realized that Lin Luoluo was still angry about the previous matter.
Lin Luoluo retorted angrily: “Your brain capacity is only this big. All you think about is love and romance, Lin Dog! Open your eyes and see, there are plenty of people who want me!”
“Then tell me who,” Lin Xiangdong was not hurt by the insult and even had the leisure to whistle, which almost made Lin Luoluo die of anger.
This stinky brother only knew how to oppose her!
Lin Luoluo stammered for a long time, unable to say a name. Suddenly, her hand was grabbed, and Zhang Qiu, who had been waiting beside her, stood behind her, leaned in, and spoke into her phone: “I do.”
