TISHW 35




Chapter 35 Very interesting

Because they hadn't gone outside yet, Jiang Yu's mask was pulled up to her chin. It made her face look even smaller. Her eyes were full of reluctance. This was the first time Qin Shiyu had seen someone who rejected him so much since he grew up. He joked, "Why, are you afraid of me?"

Sure enough, when Jiang Yu heard this, she raised her eyes and looked at him, "No, I'm mainly worried that you will be afraid of me."

This familiar conversation...

Qin Shiyu looked at the light in her eyes and was secretly wary. He stood still.

However, Jiang Yu didn't get closer like last time. She just looked him up and down. Then her eyes curved and she walked straight forward. It was as if she was expressing why she would use the same trick twice.

Qin Shiyu: ...I was fooled again.

He laughed, raised his feet, and followed.

Jiang Yu entered the elevator and looked at Qin Shiyu who was walking leisurely behind her. She joked, "I remember saying last week that being with me would make you unlucky. I thought you already experienced it."

The big revelation that she was pregnant and he was the backup man was the hidden danger planted after they encountered Jiang Sheng together.

Qin Shiyu, who followed her into the elevator, paused slightly when he heard this, and quickly chuckled, "What a coincidence, same for me."

Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment. Before she could realize what he meant, she heard him ask with interest, "What do you think will happen if two people who can bring misfortune to others come together?"

Jiang Yu blinked and looked up at him. He was dressed similarly to her, with a baseball cap and a large mask. At this moment, he leaned forward to press the elevator button. Jiang Yu couldn't see the emotion in his eyes clearly. Once he pressed the elevator button on the first floor before he lowered his head to look at her, "En?"

At the sight of the teasing in his eyes, it turned out that the self-loathing just now was an illusion and he was just provoking her.

However, now that he mentioned this, Jiang Yu realized that if it weren't for him, she would probably be gossiped around in the circle and it would fade away in a few days. She wouldn’t be a hot search at all.

Jiang Yu sighed, "Twice the misfortune."

Truly miserable.

Qin Shiyu didn't expect this answer and burst into laughter, "Twice the misfortune, indeed."

"What indeed?" Jiang Yu glanced at him sideways and muttered in a low voice, "Didn't your misfortune turn into luck?"

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt unfair and continued to mumble, "The misfortune I brought to you has become a good thing. Instead of being lucky, the trouble you brought me has become a bigger trouble. Shouldn't you reflect on it?"

"Insufficient strength. You should at least express some of your stance," she sighed and said resignedly, "Oh... forget it, I'll just rely on myself."

Qin Shiyu:......

It was as if he was a study scum who gets into trouble, is irresponsible and eats soft meal.

Once on the first floor, Jiang Yu was going to the express delivery point to send the parcel. Qin Shiyu followed her. Jiang Yu was confused. This guy wasn’t teasing her just now? He actually wanted to go to the supermarket with her?!

Qin Shiyu lowered his gaze and looked at her with a friendly smile, "I think you are right. I should at least express some of my stance."

Jiang Yu said sincerely, "Compared with stance, the ability to solve problems is more important." Go solve the problem quickly and don't be an eyesore here.

Qin Shiyu sighed and melancholy expressed, "I don't have sufficient strength. I can only have a stance. What’s more..."

His eyes were full of interest when he said this, "I don't know what kind of misfortune will happen today."

Jiang Yu:……

Can’t you hope for the best for someone?

She replied, "I don't really want to know."

Qin Shiyu smiled slightly, "I want to."

Jiang Yu:……

Was it too late for her to take back the taunt she just made? She shouldn't mess with this crazy guy.

It was obviously too late. Qin Shiyu seemed to be really curious about what bad luck would happen if two unlucky people were together. When Jiang Yu finished with the express post, she went to the bank to apply for a bank card. He followed behind and waited patiently.

Fortunately, the two of them were familiar with each other and each had a strong sense of boundaries. Jiang Yu regarded him as a psychopath lacking emotions. He probably regarded Jiang Yu as a research subject for behavioral investigations. They had no desire to explore each other and only occasionally verbally fought to refuse defeat. It wasn’t awkward at all.

After leaving the bank, the next stop was to go to the supermarket for shopping. They got to pass through a food street.

At this point, the area they lived in must be mentioned. Qin Shiyu’s house wasn't actually new, but the location was very good. It wasn't far from B University, Q University, and R University. The transportation, medical care, food, clothing, and housing were all very convenient and there were many people in the nearby community. Due to this, the atmosphere was lively and bustling.

In addition to large supermarkets, there was a food street that was very famous in B City.

Jiang Yu stood at the entrance of the food street and looked at the skewers, roasted pig's trotters and sizzling tofu not far away. She was unconsciously drooling. It had been a long time since she had heartily eaten delicious food!

However, being short of money, Jiang Yu reached into her pocket to feel and walked forward with difficulty. Today's budget was limited. She will start looking for work to make money tomorrow. Next time, she can come and have a good meal.

Qin Shiyu was confused, "Aren't you going to the supermarket?"

Jiang Yu reluctantly said, "Taking a detour. I'm afraid that if we walk through there, we will lose the grocery money." In front of delicious food, the self-control she was proud of will disappear. Sniff sniff~~

Qin Shiyu saw the corners of her eyes drooping in grievance and found it a little funny for some reason. At this time, she really looked like a child.

He glanced back at the food street before quickly turning his head back. He could treat her to a meal, but she probably wouldn't accept it. Their relationship didn't seem to be to the extent of treating each other to a meal.

After walking about twenty meters further, he saw the bustling crowd again. Jiang Yu looked at the bags carried by the people and the carts they were pulling, "Farmer market? That's right, there should be a farmer market near this kind of community." "

Sure enough, they soon heard shouts, "Cheap price! Tomatoes are sold cheaply! Two yuan per catty! Two yuan per catty!"

The supermarket was two and a half yuan. Jiang Yu stopped and looked at the flow of people coming and going. The food in this farmer market was obviously of high quality and low price. If she could save some money on her budget, maybe she could eat roasted pig's trotters first?

It was just that there were some situations when buying food at the farmer market that made people worry...

Qin Shiyu was pondering why Jiang Yu was staring at the farmer market with a conflicted expression. Then he suddenly saw her looking up at him. With a sudden smile, she raised her feet and entered in.

Qin Shiyu slowly followed, feeling amused in his heart. Could it be that she thought he would be afraid of entering here? He didn't like excessive physical contact, but it wasn’t like he couldn't have contact.

Three minutes later, Qin Shiyu looked at Jiang Yu who was holding potatoes, and then at the busy vegetable stall owner who was surrounded by aunties. He wanted to turn around and leave with an expressionless face.

He should have thought of it long ago. This girl looked harmless to humans and animals, but was actually very cunning! It was obvious that she was afraid of communicating with strangers, so she lured him to be her tool.

A soft sigh came from behind, "Sure enough...oh, it's better to rely on yourself."

Qin Shiyu turned around and saw her reluctantly putting down the potato, with a cute, obedient, and soft face. So pitiful, like an abandoned little animal.

Qin Shiyu:......

Shortly later, Young Master Qin, who had never bought vegetables before, pointed at the potatoes and asked the stall owner, "How much does this cost?"

His voice was very noticeable amidst the crowd of women. The stall owner who had been busy weighing and answering customers' questions immediately looked over and said, "Potato is one yuan!"

Qin Shiyu looked at the direction Jiang Yu was pointing and continued to act as her mouth, "The beans?"

Before the stall owner could answer, an auntie nearby responded, "Beans are two yuan. Tomatoes are also two yuan...Young man, you looks really energetic. Are you buying groceries for your mom?"

They had noticed him a long time ago. Because the weather was too hot, there shouldn't be many enthusiastic fans in the market. So after entering, Qin Shiyu pulled down his mask like Jiang Yu.

Everyone had a love for beauty. Even aunties in their forties or fifties like good-looking people. However, people were wary of his distant aura at first. But from the moment he pointed at the potatoes and asked the price, that aura was instantly shattered.

The aunties immediately enthusiastically introduced:

"Eggplant, two yuan. This season ils the perfect time to eat eggplant..."

"That's right, this family’s vegetables are indeed very fresh..."

The communication between aunties was always so natural and difficult to refuse. Jiang Yu stood aside for three minutes and grasped the prices of all the vegetables at this vegetable stall. She picked the vegetables she wanted to buy and silently handed them to the stall owner. She had already heard someone ask Qin Shiyu which school he went to and whether he had a girlfriend.

It felt like if he says no, the aunties will be able to find a few girls for him right away.

Jiang Yu lowered her head and snickered before sensing a weight on her shoulders. A big hand had hooked on and a drawling voice sounded above her head, "Sorry, I have a girlfriend. She's been eating all you Elder Sisters’ vinegar for a long time."

Jiang Yu:……

When the "Elder Sisters" heard this, they were so excited that their voices became louder, "Oh, this kid has such a sweet mouth. Little miss is pretty. What a talented lad and beautiful lady!"

"They even go out to buy groceries. The young couple is quite good at living. Nowadays, many young people are afraid of trouble and order takeout..."

“Buy broccoli. The broccoli needs to be paired with a carrot..."

After a while, Jiang Yu bidded goodbye to the "Elder Sisters" with a stiff smile and a carrot and a few green onions were stuffed into the bag.

Qin Shiyu saw her expression and said with a smile, "We share the same difficulty."

Then he provoked, "Is there anything else you want to buy? Continue?"

Jiang Yu's eyes fell on the meat stall in front of her. It was lunch time. There were just as many people in front of the meat stall. But she wanted to eat meat and had planned to make braised pork as a reward for herself today.

Qin Shiyu followed her gaze and said positively, "Let's go."

Jiang Yu suddenly covered her mouth and pressed her stomach.

Qin Shiyu halted, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Yu removed her hand, "I'm suffering from morning sickness. I can't smell meat."

Qin Shiyu:......

This Schrödinger's fetus.

Noticing the glances from the people nearby, he didn't defend himself, "Let's go then?"

Jiang Yu pressed her belly and whispered, "Baby wants to eat meat. Just buy a little pork belly. I won't eat a lot."

With that pitiful look, the eyes nearby were filled with condemnation. Qin Shiyu instantly smiled fondly, "What are you saying? You can eat as much as you want. Pig's trotters, pork belly, what else? Forget it, let's just get ten catties? You can eat it slowly when we go back." He said and strode toward the meat stall.

At first, Jiang Yu was startled by the charming smile. After catching on, she felt that this guy was really capable of buying ten catties of each. So she quickly followed, "Hey!"

Qin Shiyu turned around, the two looked at each other, and they finally decided to call it even. After that, he put on his mask and walked into the meat stall. Qin Shiyu asked about the price, while Jiang Yu chose the meat. The two of them quickly battled and left the meat stall ten minutes later with a smooth retreat.

The next step was grain, oil and seasonings. Jiang Yu looked at the huge farmer market and asked Qin Shiyu to inquire about the location of the grain and oil shop to avoid unnecessary mistakes.

"There is an affordable grain and oil shop on the left turn ahead," Qin Shiyu said after asking around. He couldn't help but ask Jiang Yu, "If I hadn't come, you wouldn’t bought anything?"

Jiang Yu had a "What are you talking about?" expression on her face and replied, "Then I'll just go to the supermarket."

She looked at him, thought of something, and reminded, "Didn't you want to know what misfortune will happen? Maybe this is it?"

If he didn't follow her, wouldn't he be free of all these troubles? It can be considered a kind of misfortune.

Qin Shiyu felt what she said made sense and smiled slightly, "En, will it be your turn next?"

Jiang Yu:……

In order to avenge Qin Shiyu's curse, Jiang Yu bought a lot of rice, flour, grains and oil, put them in front of him and said, "Can you carry it? If not, give me more."

Qin Shiyu glanced at her sideways and picked up the things easily, "No need."

He glanced at her belly again, "Better not miscarry."

Jiang Yu:……

After buying almost all the things, the two of them headed back home.

As a result, when passing by the live poultry area, a big goose from one stall seemed to have been released by a naughty child when the stall owner wasn't paying attention. As soon as it was free, it unleashed its natural instinct and fiercely pecked people everywhere. This had the surrounding people scared and yelling randomly. Jiang Yu had a bad premonition in her heart.

When she was a child, she was the number one target of the geese in the village. Here... As an unlucky person, she held no hope. So she said to Qin Shiyu, "Quickly go!"

However, Qin Shiyu probably didn't know much about the goose's fighting power as he was watching the excitement. Jiang Yu, without any surprise, made eye contact with the goose's beady eyes. The goose immediately flew toward her in a menacing manner. It came over looking like a charging tank, extremely fierce.

Jiang Yu quickly put down what she was holding and prepared to fight. Qin Shiyu subconsciously stepped forward to block Jiang Yu. And then...

Everyone saw his slightly changed expression...

On the way back, Jiang Yu looked at Qin Shiyu's legs and tried to hold back her laughter. Although she knew she shouldn't, Qin Shiyu's pained and stunned expression at that time was really funny.

Jiang Yu chuckled once more. When seeing Qin Shiyu look over, she quickly whispered, "There is too much fetal gas, let it our a little."

Qin Shiyu:......

He was amused by her. Recalling the scene at that time, he felt irked and amused, "Who was this for? Don’t you have a conscience?"

When Jiang Yu saw him laughing, she couldn't help it. "Pfft... It's for me. I'm sorry, but... I'm sorry..."

She tried hard to hold back her laughter, but it was obviously not very successful. She hated herself for not being at home where she could laugh out loud.

Qin Shiyu was dissatisfied, "Didn't you say that two people become unlucky together? How come I am the only one who was unlucky?"

Jiang Yu refused to admit it, "The big goose came for me. I resolved the crisis myself."

She tried to hold back her laughter, "So, it's the people without strength who are doubly unlucky." Hahahaha.

However, when she got home, Jiang Yu realized that it wasn't over yet. She fell on the sofa holding her stomach. The "fetal gas" she had been holding back from laughing was almost all let out.

Because there was another trending search for Qin Shiyu on Weibo: #Qin Shiyu cried due to a big goose#

Triple misfortune! How miserable.

Hahahahaha.
