To try going out?
Du You is shocked.
Was that even possible?
It’s his first-ever being confessed to and his first-ever being spoken to like this, so Du You has no idea how to react.
Shen Chen said that they should avoid each other so as not to waste their time on this, and he did, but it did not work as expected.
Actually, the situation worsened.
How should he respond?
Even the system that would usually have come up with questionable schemes at times like these is silent.
Since they were not particularly muffling their speech, Ryan’s ears twitch in the living room, as he pokes his head out of his blanket.
He is still drowsy, half-asleep right now, so he doesn’t know what’s going on, nor is he aware that his self-declared lover is being confessed to right now.
No one is speaking.
‘Ding dong——’
The doorbell has broken the deathly silence.
Despite that, You Haoyu does not look away, still staring fixedly at Du You.
The doorbell continues to ring, and the overwhelmed Du You begins mentally aborting.
So he looks towards the entrance, “is it your agent?”
He starts moving towards the door.
But his arm is grabbed by You Haoyu.
His hand is hotter than usual, and Du You notices that it is also slightly trembling as well.
That is when he finally realises that You Haoyu seems to be extremely nervous.
He is staring at him fixedly still, silent.
The doorbell is ringing even more incessantly now, being pressed again before the last chime ended.
Du You tries pulling his arm away lightly. He failed.
It seems the situation will not defuse without a firm answer.
So Du You says, “I understand.”
You Haoyu’s heart skips a beat.
Du You continues, “for a week, right?”
You Haoyu opens his mouth, and after a long delay, with a creaky tone, “… yes.”
“Then, I’ll be waiting when the movie is finished.”
You Haoyu seems to still be in disbelief to hear the affirmative answer. He both hoped Du You would accept and feared he would reject it at the same time.
He asks, sounding extremely lacking in confidence, “did, did you agree?”
Du You nods.
You Haoyu’s hand immediately tightens before gradually loosening. His whole face is beet-red, “thank you.”
The system seems shocked [Wait, host, did you just agree to go out with him?!]
Du You corrects it [To try going out for a week]
System [But, but…]
It really cannot see its host feeling anything resembling ‘affection’ towards him.
Du You [Then he can shoot his movie in peace during this time, and, after not seeing any result after a week, he will be able to give up, I think]
The system goes quiet.
