Go Ahead If You Can!
Chapter 21
He only had classes in the afternoon, so Zhu Yilong went to Earth Star after waking up in the morning. He took the case report and sent it to the Special Investigation Office.
After this, the skinned woman's case was completely solved, and the two of them finally had two days of peace.
It wasn't until Saturday afternoon that Zhu Yilong received a call from the real estate agent after class. The agent said that the house had been found according to his requirements and asked him to take some time to take a look.
"I'll go over now."
Zhu Yilong looked at his watch. It was only 3: 30 in the afternoon, and there were no classes left. He wanted to settle on the house as soon as possible so that he could take care of someone's breakfast.
As soon as he walked out of the school gate, he suddenly saw a familiar person: the executive director — oh, no, in the drama, it was Jiajia, a female student in Mr. Zhang's class, who had followed Shen Wei to Qingxi Village.
Although the girl was a little short, she was quite lively. She was about to open the door and get into the car when she suddenly saw him from the corner of her eye. She immediately stood up and waved excitedly.
"Teacher Shen!"
Zhu Yilong stopped in his tracks and showed a professional gentle smile. "You're Jiajia from the class next door, right?"
"Yes!
I didn't expect Teacher Shen to remember me! "
Jiajia jumped up to him and said quickly, "Teacher Shen, where are you going?"
"Oh, I'm going to the east of the city to do something."
"The east of the city!
What a coincidence! "
Jiajia's eyes lit up. "I'm going to the east of the city too. It's on the way. Teacher Shen, let me give you a ride!"
Zhu Yilong quickly declined. "It's okay, I —"
"Come on, come on!
The east of the city is quite far from here. I'm going to the suburbs in the east of the city, so I'll definitely pass by your destination. It's on the way anyway! "
Jiajia said as she boldly grabbed the briefcase in his hand and pulled him to her car.
"Hey —" Zhu Yilong was caught off guard and almost had his briefcase snatched away. He was worried that if he resisted too hard, the petite girl in front of him would fall.
He could only follow her and get into the car.
When he saw that there was a male driver in the car, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He adjusted his glasses and sat up straight.
The chauffeur was already used to the way the eldest daughter of his family did things. He politely greeted Zhu Yilong and asked about his destination before starting the car.
On the other hand, Jiajia was sitting in the front passenger seat. She was constantly looking for topics to talk about. Even if Zhu Yilong only replied occasionally, she was still chatting happily. There was no awkward silence at all.
Zhu Yilong couldn't handle this kind of enthusiasm. He almost activated the Lecturer Item to deal with it.
At this moment, he really missed Bai Yu. They were both passionate people, but … there was a huge difference between them.
Fortunately, he soon arrived at his destination.
After thanking the overly enthusiastic girl, Zhu Yilong stood on the side of the road and looked up at the familiar surroundings. His gaze paused on a certain shop before he walked towards the gate of the neighborhood.
After taking two steps, he suddenly heard a whistle. He turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw Bai Yu leaning against a stone pillar at the gate. When she saw him, she whistled. "Teacher Shen, this place is so far away from Longcheng University. Why are you here?"
Zhu Yilong blinked. It was obvious that they were going to rehearse!
He raised his hand and adjusted his glasses. "I have something to do.
Director Zhao, don't you have to go to work today? "
Bai Yu spread her hands and pouted. "I don't care!
Even government officials have to take the weekend off!
I just went downstairs to replenish my inventory and saw you get out of the car at my gate. I was a little curious, so I came to take a look. "
Inventory?
When Zhu Yilong heard this, he subconsciously looked at the box at his feet and saw the words "XXX Instant Noodles" printed on it. He was speechless. Was this guy planning to eat instant noodles as his daily food?
Although Zhu Yilong was quite good at cooking instant noodles, that was because he only knew how to cook instant noodles other than congee.
Most of the time, he would rather buy takeout or hotpot. After all, instant noodles were not good for the body. As actors, they more or less had to be careful.
Therefore, when he saw Bai Yu's actions, he couldn't help but shake his head and disagree.
"After all, instant noodles are not healthy enough. Director Zhao, if conditions permit, it's better to eat more normal meals."
"I can't help it. I'm a bachelor, and I don't have a kind and hardworking lady to cook for me …" Bai Yu complained. She bent down and picked up the box of instant noodles. She asked knowingly, "Professor Shen, I live here. Where are you going?
Maybe I can show you the way. "
Zhu Yilong reported a string of house numbers. When Bai Yu heard it, she was immediately amused. "What a coincidence!"
"Huh?"
Bai Yu smiled and said, "The house you're talking about happens to be right across from mine.
Let's go, I'll take you up! "
Therefore, the two of them walked into Zhao Yunlan's house one after the other. After going upstairs, Zhu Yilong saw an unfamiliar man standing there. When he saw him, his eyes lit up.
"You're Professor Shen, right?
Hello, I'm from Sunshine Intermediary. "
"Hello."
Zhu Yilong stepped forward and shook hands with the other party. Then, he followed the other party into the house opposite Zhao Yunlan's house.
Bai Yu also walked in curiously. When she saw that the house was covered with dust, she raised her eyebrows but didn't say anything.
On the other side, Zhu Yilong had quickly negotiated with the intermediary and confirmed that he wanted to buy this house.
The two of them decided to go through the transfer procedures immediately. This way, they could use the rest of the weekend to clean up the house and move in as soon as possible.
Seeing the two of them leave, Bai Yu didn't follow them. With Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan's current relationship, it was fine for them to greet each other if they met on the way. However, it wouldn't be appropriate for them to follow him around too eagerly.
Therefore, he verbally agreed to help them when they moved in. Then, he returned to his own house.
About an hour later, Bai Yu heard footsteps again. When she opened the door, she saw Zhu Yilong walking upstairs with four large bags in his hands. She hurriedly went out to help him. When Zhu Yilong refused, she forcefully snatched two of the bags.
However, when the bags entered his hands, they were so heavy that he subconsciously leaned back. He couldn't help but say in surprise, "Brother Long, you're actually carrying four of such heavy bags?"
At this moment, there were only the two of them in the corridor, so they didn't have to continue acting.
Zhu Yilong smiled as he touched his keys. "These things aren't heavy. Besides, I'm quite strong now. Otherwise, why would I tell you that you don't have to help me?"
"That's a little too much." Bai Yu shook the bags in her hands. "What are these?"
"I just went to the supermarket to buy some daily necessities."
As Zhu Yilong spoke, he opened the door of his room and moved aside to let Bai Yu in. "The rest are in the dormitory. I'll ask a moving company to move them in tomorrow.
The house is quite messy. Just leave the things here. You can go back! "
"Are you kidding me?"
Bai Yu put the bags on the ground and said unhappily, "How can I let you do such a big job alone?
If we work together, it'll be more efficient. Otherwise, where will you sleep at night? "
Zhu Yilong wanted to say that he could go back to the dormitory at night, but he swallowed the words. Especially when he saw that Bai Yu was already helping him remove the dustproof cloth, he sighed softly, rolled up his sleeves, and joined in the cleaning.
Although this house was a little old, the previous owner was a fastidious person. When he sold the house, he left most of the furniture behind, so it was quite clean.
There were ready-made mattresses, and Zhu Yilong had just bought new bedding. After the two of them put away the dustproof cloth, they simply wiped the dust off and finally put on new bedding and sheets. The house was more or less livable.
The two of them quickly arranged the other things that Zhu Yilong bought, including toiletries, daily necessities, and even a lot of kitchen utensils, pots, bowls, ladles, and basins.
Bai Yu exclaimed as she organized, "Brother Long, aren't you too fastidious?
Not only do you have a knife, but you also have a casserole pot and a wok. Are you really going to cook by yourself? "
Zhu Yilong was unpacking the bowls and plates. When he heard this, he said, "Do you think I don't want to eat takeout?
When I was buying daily necessities, the system suddenly gave me a task of 100 contribution points and asked me to buy these daily necessities. It said that these daily necessities fit Shen Wei's character. "
As he spoke, he rinsed the bowls and plates in the sink. He looked a little worried. "Although this task has been completed, I have an inexplicable ominous feeling."
"What ominous feeling?"
Bai Yu curiously put a wok on the electric pottery stove. When she heard this, she turned to look at him and said casually, "The system won't ask you to cook next, right?"
Before he finished speaking, the system's voice suddenly sounded. [Scene Task Triggered: Food is God.
Host number two, please cook every day. If you cook for seven consecutive days, you will receive 500 contribution points. If you fail, you will experience a random OOC punishment.]
Zhu Yilong: "..."
Bai Yu: "..."
Belatedly, Zhu Yilong realized that this task was automatically accepted and there was no option to reject it. He was a little dumbfounded.
Bai Yu was also stunned. After a while, he reacted and laughed dryly, saying, "That's right.
"Brother Long... you, you can cook, right?"
"I can cook instant noodles and scrambled eggs. Do you eat them?" Zhu Yilong rolled his eyes when he heard this. He pointed at Bai Yu and said, "Let me tell you, it's all your fault!
Why did you mention cooking for no reason? "
Bai Yu quickly raised his hands and surrendered. "This, this, this... I didn't expect the system to be voice-activated, right?
I was just saying it casually... "After saying this, he felt that his words were a little perfunctory, so he added," Well, I think that since Brother Long is so smart and powerful, anything you cook must be delicious. Hahaha... "
Zhu Yilong really wanted to ignore him and rolled his eyes at him.
He looked at the task that was already in the task list and looked at the super high contribution points reward. He sighed and gritted his teeth.
"Forget it, I'll cook. But no matter what I cook, you have to eat it every day. No matter how good it is, you have to swallow it!"
