Chapter 14: 14

Chapter 14 : Real and Fake God

After introducing themselves, each of them took their seats.

At the four-seater table, Ji Pianpian and Jiang Muxue sat on the same side, while Shen Du and Li Xingqiao sat on the opposite side.

Jiang Muxue was naturally face to face with Li Xingqiao, and Ji Pianpian was also under the eyes of Du-shen.

Until the food was served, Ji Pianpian’s heart was still pounding, and she couldn’t tell if it was because the person on the other side looked like a show off, or because of this fateful coincidence. 

Maybe, both.

Ji Pianpian didn’t dare to look up at all, but even if she lowered her eyelashes, she could still see the man’s slender fingers with distinct knuckles.

She heard that people with cold white skin have blue or purple veins. The skin on the back of Shen Du’s hand is translucent white, hiding a blue vein underneath, like a cold ice hidden under the snow.

His angular fingers holding the ebony chopsticks are thin but not skinny, strong but not crude, with a slow and deliberate elegance.

Ji Pianpian has always been aware of her own face-con problems, and now she discovered that she has another serious problem——

Hand Control.[mfn]手控 – /Shǒu kòng/ Hand fetish…[/mfn]

Gosh, those hands are so beautiful!

“Want shrimp?” Noticing her line of sight, Shen Du opened his mouth to ask.

The clear, low voice sounded on the banks of the slowly flowing stream, not deliberately not passionate, but dXmn seductive!

Ji Pianpian’s heart skipped a bit and hurriedly said: “…thank you.”

Her voice was so weak like a mosquito.

She doesn’t like to eat shrimp or crab or eggs, she is a picky eater of the ninth wonder of the world. But at this moment, looking at the round shrimp balls held by his cold white fingers, Ji Pianpian is not even half-picky.

——It turns out she’s not a picky eater, she’s a billion times pickier!

The cheesy shrimp was made sweet and delicious. Ji Pianpian discovered for the first time that the shrimp turned out to be such a delicious thing!

Shen Du used public chopsticks for Ji Pianpian’s dishes. There was no intimacy in his movements, just courteous and with appropriate care.

The child’s restraint fell on his eyes, and she seemed more childish, like a small animal probing outside a wolf’s den.

Shen Du has been scolded for not being a human in the game all the time, although he didn’t really have a good temper, he has a clear bottom line.

An adult can do whatever they want in the world.

But a child’s life must not be wasted.

Ji Pianpian is obviously a child, is Jiang Muxue really a second-year university student?

Li Xingqiao, you’re a beast.

For this meal, Ji Pianpian ate comfortably and was satisfied.

Li Xingqiao and Jiang Muxue were very sweet to each other, acting as though there was nobody else present. Ji Pianpian thought that she would be so embarrassed when she went out, but she didn’t feel the passage of time during the whole meal.

Shen Du treated her politely, but distantly. He was not enthusiastic but he also didn’t make people feel left out.

Just the right care, and it makes people feel like spring.

In particular, in the middle of the meal, there was no spoon in Ji Pianpian’s soup bowl.

Neither Li Xingqiao nor Jiang Muxue found out, and Ji Pianpian was embarrassed to speak, thinking that it was not a big deal to stop drinking. Only Shen Du saw it at first glance and gave her the spoon he had never used.

Ji Pianpian raised her head in surprise.

Shen Du’s dark eyes only looked at her eyes for a moment before beckoning to the waiter: “Please add a soup spoon.”

The waiter quickly apologized and prepared the spoon again.

Ji Pianpian whispered her thanks.

Shen Du stirred the sea cucumber porridge with a new spoon, and lowered his eyelashes: “Be careful of scalding.”

Ji Pianpian: “En…”

She scooped a spoonful into her mouth and was amazed: This sea cucumber porridge is so delicious. The millet is well-defined, silky and fragrant. It’s amazing!

Picky eater Pian completely forgot how to write the word picker eater today.

After a good meal, Li Xingqiao was reluctant to part with his girlfriend and suggested: “Let’s go to the movies.”

When his voice fell, Shen Du raised his eyebrow slightly.

Under the enormous pressure, Li Xingqiao frantically cast a pleading gaze at Shen Du, if it wasn’t for his face, he would be kneeling and begging now!

Shen Du’s eyelashes didn’t even lift.

Li Xingqiao made persistent efforts.

Shen Du listened impatiently, his eyelids lifted and his dark eyes stared at him.

Li Xingqiao’s heart skipped a beat, and his thoughts were broken.

At this time, Ji Pianpian, who had been quiet for a while, suddenly said: “I…”

Two pairs of eyes turned to her. Ji Pianpian ignored Li Xingqiao’s gaze, and her voice tightened slightly merely because of Shen Du’s calm gaze: “I’m not going to the movies anymore, I have to go back… um, cut a short film.”

Close call, I nearly blurted it out!

Jiang Muxue set her up as a sophomore majoring in playwright-director1 at F University, and the reason she didn’t go home for winter break was to follow her senior’s internship.

Of course, Ji Pianpian didn’t have any short films to cut, she hasn’t been admitted to university yet!

She said this just to save Shen Du, she could see that he doesn’t want to go to the movie.

After saying this, Ji Pianpian was afraid of delaying Li Xingqiao’s appointment with Jiang Muxue, so she hurriedly said: “You guys go ahead, I’ll go back first…”

Before she finished speaking, Shen Du said: “I’ll take her back to school.”

Ji Pianpian: “!”

Li Xingqiao’s eyes lit up and he almost shouted “wonderful, ah.”

Of course he knows that Shen Du doesn’t want to go to the movies.

It’s already a big deal for Old Du to come out for a meal, and to go to the movies… he might not break out in front of people, but after returning to the dormitory, Li Xingqiao was afraid that the autumn gale would sweep away the fallen leaves![mfn]秋风扫落叶 – /qiū fēng sǎo luò yè/ lit. as the autumn gale sweeps away the fallen leaves (idiom); to drive out the old and make a clean sweep[/mfn]

Shen Du is not going to the movies, and it’s obviously not suitable for Ji Pianpian to be alone, so they went home separately, and the young couple is still inseparable.

After all, Ji Pianpian was really kind and considerate, so Shen Du offered to send her back to school later.

It really killed two birds with one stone, isn’t this great!

Compared to Li Xingqiao’s gleaming eyes, Ji Pianpian was so nervous: Send, send what? What to do if she was exposed!

Ji Pianpian looked at Jiang Muxue for help.

Jiang Muxue’s heart is very big: “Then I will hand over Pianpian to Senior Shen!”

Shen Du: “En.”

Ji Pianpian: “???”

Jiang Muxue blinked at Ji Pianpian: What are you afraid of, we originally lived in F University.

The training courses for art candidates use the classrooms and empty dormitories of F University.

Ji Pianpian: “…”

Ok, the person involved is not afraid, she’s afraid of ghost.

It wasn’t her who overturned the car and lost her love!

Li Xingqiao and Jiang Muxue went to the cinema on the top floor, while Shen Du and Ji Pianpian took the elevator downstairs.

They waited a long time for the elevator, because the Spring Moon Pavillion is on the fifth floor, and there were almost no people going down.

Shen Du offered her a step, and when Ji Pianpian advanced to the elevator, Ji Pianpian’s heart couldn’t help but get flattered again: Such a careful, thoughtful, and handsome man can be deadly!

When the elevator arrived on the fifth floor, no one was there, but when it stopped on the shopping center on the fourth floor, a large crowd of people rushed in.

Ji Pianpian was pushed back several steps, and she leaned directly into the corner. Seeing that a burly man came over to her, Ji Pianpian had no choice but to retreat…

Shen Du stretched out his hand to block in front of her. the cuff of his black down jacket shrank back as his arms straightened, revealing his thin wrist bones. His cold white palms were pressed against the icy inner wall off the elevator, just the right distance from the man who was pushing towards the girl.

Ji Pianpian: “!”

She looked at the arm in front of her, and her heart was pounding.

Shen Du protected her, but he didn’t get close to her at all. In this crowded elevator, he gave her a sufficiently respectful distance.

Courteous and thorough.

Obviously there was no ambiguity at all, but…

Ji Pianpian didn’t dare to lift her head, for fear of exposing her hot cheeks.

Dead, dead, this man pokes her in all sides too much!

Outside of the mall, it was icy and snowy outside.

As an incompetent middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River2, it was extra cold this year, especially after the sun had completely set, it was so cold that Ji Pianpian, a northerner, couldn’t stand it.

Today, at Jiang Muxue’s strong request, she only wore a wool coat.

The coat was slim and nice, but cold.

She didn’t feel it in the mall, but when she went out, the cold wind pierced her coat, making her shiver.

Spring Moon Pavillion is not far from F University, and it will only take less than a ten-minute walk.

But with this temperature at night, walking for ten minutes was enough to suffer.

The girl was shrinking, and Shen Du saw it.

He wore a lot of clothes, with a down jacket over his sweater. Given his height, if he took off his down jacket and gave it to the child, it could wrap her legs.

It’s just… inappropriate.

Shen Du wouldn’t be cold even if he took off his down jacket, but he doesn’t want to provoke the half-grown child.

Li Xingqiao is a beast, he is not.

Giving her his clothes isn’t appropriate, and walking back like this may freeze the child…

Therefore, Shen Du waved his hand and stopped a taxi.

Ji Pianpian was taken aback for a moment and looked up at him.

Shen Du’s eyes stopped on the tip of her reddish nose for a while, then turned to the driver and said: “Master, please go to F University.”

Ji Pianpian hurriedly said: “It’s very close, no need to…” waste money.

Shen Du opened the car door for her: “Aren’t you cold?”

Ji Pianpian endured, but couldn’t hold back: “It’s cold to death…”

The deep eyes under Shen Du’s black eyelashes were dyed with a smile: “Get in the car.”

Ji Pianpian was blushing from his smile, and could only respond in a small voice: “Thank you, senior.”

Shen Du: “It’s okay.”

Ji Pianpian entered the back seat, while Shen Du sat in the co-pilot, still in a comfortable distance.

Shen Du looked ahead without squinting. At first Ji Pianpian just stared at the cow horn buttons of her coat, but after a while, she raised her head carefully and her eyes drifted towards Shen Du.

From this angle, she could only see the back of his head and a bit of his profile.

The car was dim, with occasional lights coming through the front window, staggering past him: his dark hari was illuminated, and the dimmed light hit his skin, revealing a white that was colder than the snow outside the window; his high nose bridge and thin jaw line were clearly and ambiguous, under the flow of light. It looks like a beautiful and elegant painting. 

Seemingly sensing something, Shen Du’s slightly drooping eyelashes lifted and his dark eyes locked with hers in the rearview mirror.

Ji Pianpian: !!!

Shen Du inadvertently looked away, seemingly unaware of her peeking.

Ji Pianpian breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but bend upward again——

He, is, too, good, looking!

He looked a hundred times better than that high-pixelated photo, but unfortunately she can’t contact Fu Xuahui, otherwise, Ji Pianpian could drag her and scream until dawn!

Walking for ten minutes, and they just need to wait for the traffic light with a car.

Two or three minutes later, the two got out of the taxi, and Ji Pianpian stood at the gate of F University, and thanked Shen Du again: “I troubled Senior.”

Shen Du stood outside the school gate with his hands in his pocket: “It’s cold, go back to the dormitory earlier.”

Ji Pianpian nodded. After saying goodbye to him, she entered the school gate.

She took a few steps and turned around unexpectedly when she was about to turn into the dormitory building.

Sure enough, the tall figure just turned around. Shen Du left after watching her enter the school gate.

Ji Pianpian stood still and looked at him secretly.

The gate of F University was a European-style hollowed out iron gate. Under the magnificent building, the man’s stature was still undisguised and slender. His wide down jacket covered his upper body line, but stretched his long legs unbounded. When he took a step, there seemed to be stars scattered under his feet.

Ji Pianpian endured until she reached the dormitory, and finally couldn’t bear it any longer.

“Ahhhh!!!”

The girl didn’t even take off her sweater and directly rolled on the bed wrapped in a quilt.

So handsome!

Handsome, gentle, considerate and thoughtful!

This kind of man actually exists!

Ji Pianpian stopped tumbling, her long hair was already rolled fluffy, lined with her tender white face, which was only bigger than a palm, her bright eyes were more rounded.

She held the pillow and stared at the laptop on the desk, thinking of the night elf in the game:

“Real Du-shen, and Fake DuWo.”

This is the difference between the original and the high-imitation account——

A gentle and considerate handsome man, while the other was a big rascal with a bad mouth and a black heart!

Wuwuwu.

Ji Pianpian felt so regretful…

She shouldn’t have agreed to that high-imitation account in a moment of weakness, she wanted to give the unique skill book to the real Du-Shen.

It’s not a token of love.

She purely just wanted to give it to him (?)

☼☼☼

The author has something to say:

Pianpian in reality: Oops, it’s the feeling of heartbeat!

Pianpian in the game: disgust.jpg!

Du-shen what’s the matter with you, hahahahaha
