Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love

Lin Yu was stir-frying, holding a spatula in one hand and with the other, he touched the hand that was embracing him, "It's all grease and soot; you've gotten oil from the apron all over your hand by holding me like this."

His tone was helpless, but he still remembered to answer her question, "Sure, I don't have classes this Saturday, shall we go?"

Liu Ou was satisfied and hummed in agreement, still muttering, "There couldn't be that much oil, but it smells so good."

She slurped, truly believing that Lin Yu had perfectly inherited his grandma's cooking skills, making everything delicious.

Of course, the taste was definitely a bit different from grandma's. If Liu Ou had to choose, the grandma's cooking was still more delicious.

But Lin Yu's cooking was already very delicious.

Lin Yu was amused by her gluttonous tone and gently patted her hand, "Let go and wait over there; I can't concentrate on cooking with you here."

Liu Ou refused to take the blame, "Dr. Lin, you can't blame me for your own lack of focus!"

Despite saying that, she let go of his hand but didn't leave; instead, she just stood by his side, chatting with him.

Suddenly, she stared at Lin Yu's hands and after a while said, "I remember Luoluo mentioning that Xie Xiao's mom is a doctor too, and their family is very protective of Dr. Yang's hands. They hardly let her cook. Should I also take good care of your hands and seriously learn to cook?"

Hearing this, Lin Yu finally found a moment to glance at her, meeting her sparkling eyes.

He was exasperated yet amused, "They're not that precious. Aunt Yang is pampered by the Xie family men on purpose. Besides, Aunt Yang still often cooks."

Liu Ou uttered an "oh," a smile flickering in her eyes. She leaned in and quickly pecked Lin Yu on the lips.

Her voice was playful, "Then I also want to pamper our Dr. Lin."

Damn! Lin Yu's heart rate immediately sped up.

The longer they were together, the more flirtatious his girlfriend seemed to become, and it was almost becoming too much for him.

But he enjoyed it.

Lin Yu's lips curved into a smile, "But I also want to pamper you. Alright, how about you cook when I'm busy, and I'll cook when I'm free—does that work?"

Liu Ou thought it over and it seemed reasonable, especially since Lin Yu would likely be very busy later on.

Doctors are never known for being idle, so this arrangement wasn't bad at all.

Liu Ou nodded, "Okay, then I do need to learn a few more dishes."

Saying this, she walked out happily, "I'll go check out the menu."

Lin Yu looked at her, acting on her words immediately, and couldn't help but feel both amused and helpless.

Liu Ou was the kind of person who appeared very mature and sensible on the outside.

She was also high in emotional intelligence, but at home, she became childish and carefree.

This seemed to be when she was most relaxed.

Lin Yu didn't find it immature; he liked Liu Ou this way.

Otherwise, who could bear being sensible and mature all the time?

He probably was the only one who saw so many sides of her.

The feeling was very nice.

When Lin Yu had finished cooking and brought the dishes out, Liu Ou was sitting on the sofa looking at an iPad, only standing up to eat when she saw it was ready.

She went to help get the bowls and chopsticks, "Is it a bit much for two people to have four dishes, feels like a waste."

Liu Ou was a bit stunned by the lavish spread of four dishes and a soup.

She also marveled at how Lin Yu managed to put together four dishes and a soup in such a short time.

Lin Yu pulled her to sit down, "Not at all, the portions are small. Why not celebrate our first day of living together?"

Liu Ou thought about it and nodded, "It does seem like that. Shall we have a drink then?"

Of course, they weren't drinking alcohol, but cola.

After dinner, both were stuffed, even though Lin Yu said the portions were small.

Both of them weren't big eaters to begin with, especially Liu Ou, who really had a tiny appetite.

Most of the leftovers ended up in Lin Yu's stomach.

He had always been used to it; there was definitely no wasting food.

Liu Ou also managed to eat a little more later on.

At that moment, she was stuffed to the point of discomfort.

Liu Ou spoke seriously yet helplessly, "Next time, let's just have two dishes for the two of us. Otherwise, it's really too wasteful."

Lin Yu nodded in agreement, "Your humble servant concurs."

The two exchanged glances and burst into silly laughter.

It feels like pink bubbles are starting to pop up in the air around me.

They're... living together now.

This feeling is quite wondrous.

In the end, at Liu Ou's insistence, she did the dishes while Lin Yu lounged on the sofa digesting his meal.

At this time, Lin Yu pulled out his phone and glanced at it a few times.

WeChat still had new friend requests.

As usual, he clicked to check them out.

Sure enough, Fang Miao's friend request was still there.

She had been adding Lin Yu for over a year, but he never accepted.

Yet she still persistently sent a new request every couple of days.

He had thought that after meeting his girlfriend today, she would have given up, right?

Lin Yu thought of her look before she left.

He couldn't help but frown.

Lowering his eyes, he accepted Fang Miao's friend request, indeed curious to see what she was up to.

On the other end, she probably hadn't expected her friend request to be accepted this time.

It took her quite a while to start sending messages, and they came in rapid succession.

[Lin Yu, you finally accepted!!! Don't you dare delete me!!!]

[Let's have lunch together tomorrow? I found a new place!]

[Oh, and I don't have classes tomorrow, so I can accompany you to yours!]

...Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The messages spilled out one by one, and there was something off about both the tone and the words.

Honestly, it came off as somewhat terrifying.

Lin Yu cut her off directly, [I have a girlfriend now, and you met her today. You said before that once you met my girlfriend, you'd give up, so please do. ]

After saying that, he promptly deleted her.

Lin Yu still felt something was off about her.

She clearly wasn't in a normal state of mind.

Lin Yu wondered, is someone like this really suited to be a medical professional?

He sat on the sofa, frowning.

He didn't even notice when Liu Ou had come over.

Liu Ou reached out and rubbed Lin Yu's face a few times, "What's with the long face?"

Only then did Lin Yu put down his phone, look up at her, and reach out to pull her into his embrace.

Liu Ou sat on his lap, getting comfortable, and muttered, "I ate so much today, am I heavy?"

Amused, Lin Yu pinched her slender waist, "Heavy? You should eat more."

Liu Ou nodded in satisfaction, "If you said I was heavy, I definitely wouldn't let you hold me ever again!"

Her tone was firm and assertive.

Lin Yu laughed.

Only then did Liu Ou ask, "What made you look so upset just now?"

Lin Yu hesitated a bit, "It's because of Fang Miao, the girl you met today. I feel like her mental state is a bit off..."

Lin Yu recounted Fang Miao's relentless pursuit over the past year and the messages she sent after he accepted the friend request.

"It just feels like she's really off. I'm worried she'll trouble you." This was the truth, Lin Yu wasn't afraid of her troubling him.

But he was afraid she would trouble Liu Ou.

After hearing everything, Liu Ou too felt that the girl was a bit too obsessive,

but she quietly reassured Lin Yu, "It's okay, I don't really have anything to do with her."

Some things shouldn't be said carelessly.

They would have an intersection soon enough.
