The lights outside the car window were bright.

The light of the city’s neon lights shone on Lu Xing’s side profile. He lowered his head and seriously checked the trending topics on various apps today.

As a professional simp, keeping up with the times with the memes you use is also an essential quality.

When you want to make a client happy, saying a popular meme is definitely more effective than saying “blue thin shiitake mushroom.”

(TL: A very old, outdated meme.)

Lu Xing opened the various trending lists as usual.

While checking the entertainment list, he actually saw Chi Yueshan’s name.

He clicked on the video.

Chi Yueshan should be participating in some event. She wore a light blue and white opera robe, a red dot between her eyebrows.

Her white water sleeves were like a swimming dragon, as graceful as a startled swan, like a goddess descending to the mortal world.

He clicked on the comment section. As soon as Lu Xing entered, he was tripped by various underpants.

(TL: A very specific meme phrase, meaning the comments are wild/thirsty.)

【Sister, I can only give you six points. I’m short four, so I’ll give you ten.】

【According to my original plan, I should have grown up to look like Boss Chi.】

【Why didn’t you? Is it because you didn’t want to?】

【Only after growing up did I realize that my phone is my greatest homesickness. My wife is inside, and I am outside.】

【Emmm, if Boss Chi were to pursue me, what should I do?】

【It’s okay, I’ll block her for you.】

【It’s okay, I’ll also block her for you.】

Lu Xing: ???

Flipping through the comment section, Lu Xing really laughed out loud.

‘Well, I’ll be damned!’

I still needs to improve!

In the future, if I want to learn love confessions, I shouldn’t look at those old-fashioned collections.

I should just go to the comment sections of some good-looking bloggers’ videos and copy them on the spot!

Lu Xing was enlightened.

“It seems my thinking on how to play the internet is not a problem.”

Lu Xing put away his phone, closed his eyes, and leaned back against the seat.

He had used Chi Yueshan as a trial.

Facts have proven.

His internet sense was not a problem.

Now that both Chi Yueshan and Liu Qingqing were no longer taking up his time…

In this gap, starting a business was too unrealistic and there wasn’t enough time. But starting an account to make some money part-time was not a problem.

Lu Xing didn’t want to show his face, worried about running into previous clients going crazy in the comment section. So he would just make videos based on his skills.

He planned to start a wood carving account.

Contrast is always the core of attracting attention.

After Hu Zhongzhong had talked about 2D things last time, he had specially gone to learn about the most popular 2D characters now.

So the core of making this account would be making 2D wood carvings + a noisy, chattering voice-over + a little bit of body exposure.

The collision of traditional skills and the internet. Lu Xing could already predict that there would be comments about the collapse of etiquette and music in the comment section.

Even if it doesn’t work out, it doesn’t matter. It’s always a try.

Anyway, he only did wood carving to adjust his mood. If he did it well, he could sell it to this private otaku, Hu Zhongzhong.

Hehe.

So fun!

“Professor Song, you were right…”

Lu Xing opened his eyes and stared at the constantly retreating scenery outside the car window.

“I should find something to do.”

Otherwise.

How can I live?

…

After getting off the bus.

Lu Xing didn’t go to the inpatient department, but instead went to find Dr. Hao.

Last time, his sprained foot wasn’t actually that serious.

But what’s that saying? Always talking about not wanting to live, but the physical examination report must be healthy.

Even if you die, you have to be a healthy corpse!

He sent a message to Dr. Hao. She told Lu Xing to find her in the rehabilitation room.

He pushed open the door of the rehabilitation room.

Dr. Hao looked at Lu Xing with a teasing expression.

“You little thing. I told you not to fall into my hands next time, didn’t I?”

Lu Xing was silent.

‘Okay.’

The boomerang hit me so fast!

Although Dr. Hao liked to tease Lu Xing, her professional skills were there.

After examining Lu Xing, she said.

“If I had seen you a little later, you would have recovered. You kid, so delicate, huh?”

Lu Xing went into red temperature.

Dr. Hao chuckled and comforted him. “But don’t be embarrassed. You’re right.”

“Many people avoid seeing a doctor and always think of dragging it out. In the end, a small illness becomes a big one.”

“Fine, you stand up. I’ll teach you a few moves.”

Lu Xing’s hanging heart finally settled down.

Click.

The door of the rehabilitation room was opened again.

“Lu Xing?”

Chi Yueshan looked at Lu Xing with surprise.

Lu Xing ignored her.

Chi Yueshan got worked up and cheerfully walked around the leg-impaired Lu Xing twice.

“What’s wrong with your leg? Why are you lame?”

Lu Xing rolled his eyes at her. “You’re the lame one. I’m very healthy, okay? Nothing’s wrong!”

The corners of Chi Yueshan’s mouth lifted, with a schadenfreude smile of seeing a good friend get hurt.

“Your leg is really fine?”

“If it’s fine, then walk a few steps. Walk a few steps for me to see.”

Lu Xing was speechless.

‘How come I never found that Chi Yueshan talks so cheekily before?’

So he tried to attack Chi Yueshan’s weak spot.

“Is your waist really fine?”

“If it’s fine, then do a backflip. Do ten backflips for me to see!”

Chi Yueshan, relying on her flexible legs, said smugly.

“A backflip? Is that difficult?”

“Let alone me, my cat can do a backflip!”

Lu Xing rolled his eyes. “Come on.”

Chi Yueshan got worked up. “Hey! You don’t believe me? If you don’t believe me, go to my house and see if my cat can do a backflip!”

Lu Xing was speechless. “I’m not going.”

Hao Haohao looked at Chi Yueshan and Lu Xing with great interest.

So interesting.

Chi Yueshan clearly had a schadenfreude smile on her face, but her hands, hidden behind her back, were clenched so tightly that the veins on the back of her hands were particularly obvious.

Lu Xing had a speechless expression on his face. Although he was the one being mocked and teased, his whole person was very relaxed.

‘These two are really…’

Hao Haohao smiled and teased, “Aiya, Lu Xing’s body is fine.”

“But you, you should take care of your waist. Don’t wait until one day you get married, and you still have to come to me for rehabilitation after the wedding.”

“It’s always the man who can’t perform. Don’t make it so it’s the woman who can’t.”

One sentence silenced Chi Yueshan. She directly slipped away.

Watching her fleeing back, Lu Xing almost died laughing.

…

Half an hour later.

Lu Xing stood at the door of the hospital room from the rehabilitation room, took a deep breath, and put on a smile.

He pushed open the door of the hospital room.

From inside came a happy laughter and the soft singing of the Wu dialect.

[A plum blossom branch in front of the study door, birds on the tree chirping in pairs, magpies filling the tree, chattering…]

Hmm?

Lu Xing suddenly paused. “Eighteen Send-offs?”

As soon as he entered the door.

Under the bright light, Grandpa was sitting up in the hospital bed, and Grandma was holding Grandpa’s hand, sitting by the bed.

On the cot opposite…

Chi Yueshan was wearing a light blue qipao, with a beige knitted shawl over it.

Her back was slender, her black hair draped over her shoulders. She held an exquisite small fan in her hand and was softly singing Eighteen Send-offs.

There was no trace of the improper, cheeky look she had in the rehabilitation room.

Hearing the door open…

The three of them looked towards Lu Xing at the door at the same time.

“Good grandson, you’re finally here! Come and listen to Little Chi’s Yue opera!”

Grandma happily pulled Lu Xing’s arm.

“Last time I asked Little Chi if she could sing Yue opera, she said she sang Peking opera. But Little Chi really learned it later!”

Lu Xing followed Grandma’s pull and walked in, saying with a smile, “That’s so good.”

“Boss Chi is a strong learner. She sings Peking opera well, and she can also sing Yue opera.”

Chi Yueshan stood up, graceful and generous, her tone a little proud as she said, “Of course.”

Lu Xing glanced at her. “You’re really getting carried away.”

Chi Yueshan’s hands were behind her back, her palms clenched tightly. But her face was full of defiance as she argued with Lu Xing.

“Excuse me, this is a fact, okay?”

“My teacher even said that my voice is also fine for singing Yue opera and Kunqu opera!”

‘Don’t be nervous, don’t be nervous.’

Be natural.

Lu Xing is too perceptive. She absolutely cannot let him think she has any other intentions!

‘You just wait.’

When we get married, I’ll pull out my little notebook and settle accounts with you!
