Chapter 241: If You Don’t Refuse, We’re Going Together

An Qing bit her lip, looking somewhat at a loss.

An Yu had always been like this. No matter when, her behavior was always so inexplicable.

There was no way to understand it with common sense. It had always been like this… always.

Whether in her previous life or now…

That was why An Qing had never doubted that An Yu was An Yu.

For some reason, she secretly glanced at Ning Dongli on the other side, but quickly looked away as if nothing had happened.

An Qing tucked the hair behind her ear, slowly parted her cherry lips, and without hesitation ate the last bite of the grilled sausage.

She lowered her head and chewed silently. The grilled sausage tasted good… but it was just ordinary grilled sausage.

However… even though it was ordinary grilled sausage, it felt different somehow.

“Is it good?”

Seeing An Qing eat the sausage, An Yu tilted her head expressionlessly and asked softly.

“Mm.”

An Qing did not lie. She simply nodded calmly. It really… tasted good.

However… her crimson eyes never left the girl in front of her again.

“Good.”

Not noticing anything unusual about An Qing, An Yu nodded as if she had figured something out.

She turned around and quickly bought several more grilled sausages.

An Yu’s thinking was simple. She did not overthink anything.

Since everyone said they were delicious, she would just buy more.

It could not be simpler.

Before long, the three of them left holding grilled sausages.

Ning Dongli and An Qing ate their sausages in silence as they followed behind An Yu and began strolling around.

“Oh my, what a coincidence! We meet again~”

Just as An Yu was curiously looking around at everything, a voice suddenly sounded beside them.

She looked over and saw a black-haired, red-eyed figure appear.

“Wow, An Qing No. 2.”

Oh, wait. It was that cosplayer.

“Hello.”

An Yu nodded politely and greeted her softly.

There were so many people here, so running into her again was quite the coincidence.

What An Yu did not see was that An Qing was already on the verge of a stress reaction upon seeing An Yu chatting so happily with another black-haired, red-eyed girl.

Of course she knew who the person was—she had seen her in the photos before.

She just had not expected them to run into each other again.

“Ohhh, so cute!”

While An Qing’s mood grew increasingly gloomy, a pink-haired girl suddenly popped up beside the cosplayer.

She looked at An Yu and Ning Dongli in surprise, clearly not expecting to encounter such beautiful girls.

It was worth mentioning that the two of them were openly holding hands, looking very intimate.

The pink-haired girl seemed to notice An Qing. She blinked in confusion.

“Hm? Casual cosplay?”

She was very friendly and familiar. Pinching her chin, she greeted An Qing.

However, An Qing remained silent and showed no intention of responding. In the end, An Yu spoke up for her.

“She’s not…”

“Not?!” The pink-haired girl was shocked. “So this is how she normally looks?!”

She pulled on the hand of the person beside her, comparing An Qing with the tall black-haired girl next to her. The more she looked, the more similar they seemed.

The other girl nodded, seemingly agreeing with something.

The pink-haired girl smiled lightly and asked An Yu softly:

“We’re going over there to take photos. Want to join us?”

“Hm?”

An Yu tilted her head, looking a little confused.

“You two… plus her! Just like before. Everyone wears cosplay outfits and strikes poses together~”

As the pink-haired girl spoke, she smiled and pointed at An Qing.

An Yu followed the direction of her finger and looked at the bewildered An Qing.

For some reason, seeing An Qing’s expression made An Yu feel a little amused.

She had to wear one too?

So, An Yu strangely did not refuse and calmly asked a question instead.

This caused An Qing’s eyes to widen, disbelief flashing across them.

She had absolutely no interest in wearing strange outfits and letting others take photos of her.

Besides, she did not even have those clothes!

“Yes, yes!”

The pink-haired girl nodded excitedly.

“We have extra outfits here. You three all look super high-quality. The photos will definitely turn out amazing~”

An Yu blinked expressionlessly, seeming a bit hesitant.

“An Qing, if you two want to go take photos, I’ll just—”

Seeing her hesitation, An Qing reacted extremely quickly and decided to refuse.

But she was one step too slow.

An Yu nodded. Without even looking at An Qing’s reaction, she answered on her behalf.

“Okay.”

It felt like it would be interesting, so she agreed.

“…An Qing?”

Hearing the slightly confused voice from behind, An Yu finally turned around as if just realizing.

Looking into An Qing’s eyes, she blinked. A faint trace of confusion suddenly rose in her heart.

Hm?

She felt like something was a bit strange.

Why had she so naturally made the decision for An Qing?

They were practically strangers, weren’t they?

How strange…

Even though she had very little contact with An Qing, An Yu had a strong sense of familiarity.

An Yu tilted her head expressionlessly, unable to figure it out. But anyway… it was probably just an illusion.

An Qing was having a similar feeling.

In her understanding, An Yu should have treated her as a complete stranger.

So why would she suddenly make such a decision? It was as if… they were close friends who had known each other for a long time.

But that was impossible. The two of them had barely even had basic interactions.

An Qing’s heart was beating rapidly. Her crimson eyes stared intently at An Yu, as if trying to find the answer in the other girl’s gaze.

Unfortunately, An Yu was still the same An Yu.

“Sorry, you don’t want to?”

Seemingly only now realizing how unfamiliar their relationship actually was, An Yu asked calmly.

In that instant, An Qing felt her heart turn cold.

“If… I don’t want to, then forget it.”

An Yu could not actually make decisions for An Qing, so she felt a little regretful. Not being able to see An Qing in cosplay would be somewhat of a shame.

An Yu did not understand why, but she genuinely had that thought.

“I can do it.”

Seemingly noticing An Yu’s disappointment, An Qing gritted her teeth and finally agreed.

Although doing something like that would feel very strange to her…

She had no choice. This was the only chance she had to get closer to An Yu.

“Mm.”

Even though An Qing had agreed, there was still Ning Dongli to consider.

She had not forgotten how socially anxious Ning Dongli was. Especially after what had just happened, she had to ask for her opinion.

“I’m okay with it too!”

Ning Dongli held onto An Yu’s arm and nodded with a light smile.

Seeing that she also agreed, An Yu nodded expressionlessly, then turned to the two girls and said softly:

“We can join.”
