Chapter 28 Visiting West Lake
The chopsticks seemed to come alive in Su Yu's hands. With the slight push from Lin Gengxin's chopsticks, they deftly flicked and stuck the beef ball from below.
Su Yu applied the "sticky force" from Tai Chi to chopsticks, which was a complete game-changer for Lin Gengxin.
"Get out of here!"
The slippery beef ball, like an obedient little pet, was steadily deflected by Su Yu, falling smoothly into his bowl without even a drop of chili oil spilling out.
Lin Gengxin remained in her attacking stance, completely frozen, her chopsticks still hanging in the air, looking utterly bewildered.
"Holy crap, Master, this isn't scientific! Did you put magnets on the beef balls?"
Lin Gengxin was utterly defeated, slumped in his chair with a dejected look on his face, as if his Dao heart had been shattered by a single move after decades of training.
"Don't you feel like you've wasted the last twenty years of your life eating?"
Su Yu teased Lin Gengxin.
"Stop chanting, Master! Stop chanting, waaaaah~"
Dilraba and Jing Tian witnessed the whole process, their beautiful eyes wide open, filled with disbelief and admiration.
"Su Yu, what's this move called? Teach us!"
"This move, I call it 'Cloud Hands Scooping Balls,' is not easily passed on to outsiders. If you want to learn it, then it depends on your sincerity."
Su Yu took a bite of the bursting beef ball and said casually.
As soon as she finished speaking, her two delicate hands moved almost simultaneously.
"I've shown my sincerity, Master. Please have some shrimp paste. I just cooked it; it's so tender!"
Reba reacted quickly, picking up a tender shrimp paste and handing it to Su Yu's mouth, her big eyes blinking with anticipation.
"It's hot." Su Yu frowned slightly.
Reba quickly withdrew her hand, carefully blew on the shrimp paste to cool it down, and then handed it to Su Yu's mouth.
"Ah~ Open your mouth."
"Mmm~ Tender~"
Jing Tian was not to be outdone. She picked up a piece of perfectly hot, incredibly tempting fatty beef, even coating it evenly in the secret dipping sauce next to it, and carefully blew on it to cool it down before offering it to Su Yu's lips.
"Ah~ Come on~"
Su Yu took a bite of shrimp paste on his left and a bite of fatty beef on his right.
Why wouldn't you eat meat that's practically offered to you?
So comfortable~
Lin Gengxin looked at Su Yu, who was grinning smugly at her, then at her empty bowl, and angrily stuffed a mouthful of cabbage into her mouth.
Master, please, have some humanity!
The meal was finished amidst laughter and chatter, and afterwards, it was time to go our separate ways.
"Dilraba, now that you're back in the capital, work hard on your filming. If you become rich and successful, don't forget me!"
"Yeah, you too! Next time we meet, I'll treat you to authentic baked buns!"
"Hey, isn't this cumin lamb skewers?" Su Yu said with a mischievous grin.
"What the hell! Get out of here!"
Dilraba's face flushed, and she quickly got into the car driven by the staff who came to pick her up: "Goodbye! Send me a message later!"
Lin Gengxin, dragging her suitcase, reluctantly said goodbye to Su Yu:
"Master, I have to join the next group soon. You have to wait for me in the Rift, okay? Don't just focus on ranking up by yourself, you have to wait for me!"
"Get lost, get back to moving your bricks." Su Yu laughed and kicked him.
After everyone else had left, the night breeze of Hengdian blew by, leaving only Su Yu and Jing Tian standing side by side under the streetlights.
With no outsiders around, Da Tiantian instantly transformed into a gentle and tender person.
She stood with her hands behind her back, lightly kicking the pebbles on the roadside with her toes, her large eyes sparkling as she looked at Su Yu sweetly.
"General, they've all left. I'm leaving the next few days entirely in your hands. Where would you like to go?"
Su Yu's lips curled into a wicked smile, and he was just about to say something naughty when suddenly, two extremely resentful coughs came from behind him.
"Ahem!"
As soon as the two turned around, they saw two figures standing in the shadows not far away, resembling the Black and White Impermanence.
It was Jing Tian's assistant, Xiao Zhu, and Su Yu's agent, Tang Yuan.
The two best friends crossed their arms and stared at them with a resentful look that seemed to say, "Let's see how long you two keep sticking together."
Xiao Zhu took the initiative, rushing forward in three steps and grabbing Jing Tian's arm with a tragic expression, like a prime minister entrusting his son to a noble family in Baidi City.
"My dear sister!"
Xiao Zhu was almost in tears.
"The filming's all wrapped up, it's time for us to come back to our senses! You're a rising star, you have to hold on tight and not let this handsome, kind, and talented male enchantress completely steal your soul! We still have a magazine cover shoot to do!"
Jing Tian blushed deeply at her assistant's "entrustment," and playfully pinched Xiao Zhu, saying, "You brat, what nonsense are you spouting!"
On the other side, Tangyuan also walked up to Su Yu.
She first adjusted her frameless glasses, scrutinized Su Yu, then glanced at Jing Tian not far away, and lowered her voice to say to Su Yu:
"Su Yu, as your agent, I must admit that getting in touch with Jing Tian is a good thing for your current exposure and future network building, but you should still be careful."
Su Yu raised an eyebrow: "Hey, hey, hey, I'm not doing this to be a kept man. We have a pure revolutionary friendship."
"Whether it's revolutionary friendship or a mere platonic bond, I don't care."
Tangyuan changed the subject and said in a serious tone, "It's normal for young people to get carried away, but your feedback on set these past few days has been very good, so we must strike while the iron is hot."
"Yes, I know."
Su Yu's obedient demeanor made Tang Yuan lose her temper.
"Alright, alright, I'll give you three days. Come to Xiamen with me after three days."
"Go to Xiamen?" Su Yu asked, puzzled.
"Yes, there's an audition. I've read the script, and it's practically tailor-made for you. The director and the original author have been searching for a suitable actor for a long time, but they haven't found one yet. But I think you'll definitely land the role!"
"What show?"
"It's not a TV series, it's a movie called 'The Left Ear,' do you know Alec Su?"
"Aww!"
Su Yu suddenly realized, so this meant he was going to see Little Ear?
......
Over the next few days, Su Yu and Jing Tian went to Hangzhou, which was nearby.
In May, Hangzhou enjoys a pleasant temperature.
Su Yu, accompanied by the directionally challenged Tian, wearing matching sunglasses and each holding a cup of milk tea, strolled leisurely along the Su Causeway.
The weeping willows by West Lake are a deep, green, their branches drooping to the water's surface, touching it briefly, then bouncing back up, then touching it again, much like Jing Tian, the playful and bouncy girl beside Su Yu.
"Su Yu, take a picture of me quickly! Make it capture that 'face and peach blossoms reflecting each other' feeling,' or you're not allowed inside tonight!"
In this unfamiliar city, without the worry of being recognized, Jing Tian had completely abandoned any of the reserve one would expect from a popular actress. Enthusiastically, she held the hem of her long dress and struck a pose under a weeping willow.
Su Yu raised his phone to capture this moment.
This aimless daily routine gave both of them a stolen sense of happiness, and the taut string in Hengdian finally loosened completely.
As Su Yu passed by a creative market by West Lake, his eyes were suddenly drawn to a small stall.
