Love Entanglement-Who Is Shi Yu After All?

Rao Rong had already braced himself, but Shi Yun still remained stunned for a moment.

Director Lin: “I briefly inquired about Qiaoqiao’s father’s business. He’s the owner of a fruit and vegetable supermarket chain, with stores in A City and even beyond. Entrusting the apples to him is a good deal.”

Director Zhang: “Qiaoqiao’s father has the air of someone who runs a big business. Since we’ve had dealings with him before, I think he’s reliable.

Director Lin mentioned this to me, I consulted the village chief, and after some price negotiations, we finalized the deal.”

Shi Yun understood.

Director Zhang exclaimed, “That’s one less thing to worry about! I can finally get a good night’s sleep!”

Shi Yun smiled, watching the joyful faces in the room.

***

After lunch and a break, the teachers drove the tricycles up the mountain with the children.

Shi Yun sat in the sidecar, looking towards the mountainside.

The red color had spread over a large area, making him feel that they could finish harvesting the apples in one day.

This was also thanks to Director Lin and the others’ help.

Many staff members participated with various tools, greatly speeding up the process.

Seeing Director Lin’s eager expression, Shi Yun guessed that if he wasn’t needed in the group, he would have joined in himself.

A few minutes later, the tricycle smoothly stopped by the mountainside.

The children got out of the car one by one and began picking apples based on the experience they had gained in the morning.

Shi Yun followed behind them to ensure their safety.

An Huaixu passed by him, carrying a child.

His gaze involuntarily fixed on the man.

An Huaixu turned around, meeting Shi Yun’s blank stare, finding his silly expression amusing.

Shi Yun snapped out of it, quickly averting his gaze: “Oh, Linglan, do you need Teacher’s help?”

An Huaixu shook his head and smiled helplessly at his back.

The afternoon work was not difficult. They went up and down the mountain twice, finishing the apple picking in this area.

Shi Yun stood by the mountainside, looking at the lush green scenery, feeling refreshed.

“I really need to thank you all. Without you, I wouldn’t have dared to imagine finishing the harvest in one day.

The village chief and others can rest assured now.”

An Huaixu looked with him for a while, then turned around and said: “Let’s go, take this cart of apples down, and then we can rest.”

Shi Yun nodded and followed him.

After going down the mountain, the guests no longer needed to gather together.

Shi Yun and An Huaixu safely took all the children to their destinations.

On the way back, Shi Yun suddenly said, “Let’s go to the Mid-Autumn Festival night market! It’s almost the actual day, so it should be lively tonight!”

An Huaixu hummed in agreement.

When the two arrived home, Shi Yun learned that his parents had also invited the aunt next door to the night market.

And so, the group went to the night market entrance on tricycles.

An Shuqi wanted to play with the little girl, so he didn’t follow Shi Yun and An Huaixu.

An Huaixu ruffled An Shuqi’s hair: “Remember to be good.”

An Shuqi held the little girl’s hand and nodded: “Don’t worry, Huaixu!”

Shi Yun waved goodbye to his parents and walked ahead with An Huaixu following behind.

It was very lively here, with shouts of vendors and laughter everywhere.

Completely different from their first visit a few days ago, the night market had a new look.

The lanterns overhead, suggested by someone, had been replaced with cute little apples.

The decorations on both sides of the road were harmonious and unified, greatly improving the overall experience.

Shi Yun had been busy all day, but his energy was still high.

He first went to the nearest stall, squeezed into the crowd, and peeked around for a while.

“This auntie is amazing! The phoenix she draws looks so real!”

He turned his head to exclaim to An Huaixu, but before his head could fully turn back, he lifted his foot and was about to walk forward.

An Huaixu wasn’t very interested, leisurely following behind him, spending most of his time—

Shi Yun: “The pancakes at this stall smell so good!”

An Huaixu silently bought two.

Shi Yun: “Wow, this sachet smells so nice!”

An Huaixu put two more sachets in his pocket.

When they arrived at a flower cake stall, An Huaixu was about to pay when Shi Yun seemed to notice something suddenly and pulled An Huaixu’s hand, running forward a few steps.

The wind passed between them.

An Huaixu looked at their hands, unknowingly clasped together.

When Shi Yun stopped in front of a mask stall with fewer people and slowly let go of his hand, a dark glint flashed in his eyes.

Shi Yun was completely oblivious. He was looking at the masks on the stall with a face full of novelty.

The masks here were different from those in other places.

They were black and white or red and white fox shapes, with gold trim, looking very enchanting.

The stall owner was an old grandfather, who greeted them with a smile when he saw them: “Are you here to buy masks?”

Shi Yun hummed, sincerely saying: “Grandpa, your masks are so beautiful!”

The old grandfather laughed heartily when he heard this, seeming very happy: “Since you two are fated, come, I’ll give them to you!”

He took from, and handed to Shi Yun and An Huaixu.

Shi Yun didn’t expect this and refused, flustered: “No—”

He had only uttered one word when a hand reached over from the side and placed fifty yuan on the table.

Then, the person coldly said, “We bought them, keep the change.”

He left, not giving them time to react.

After walking a short distance, Shi Yun came to his senses and felt a little embarrassed.

He was just about to thank him when An Huaixu took the red fox mask and put it on his face.

He subconsciously closed his eyes.

Whether it was his imagination or not, he felt An Huaixu’s fingers brush against his eyelids, and then linger at the corners of his lips.

He was wondering what he was doing?

Was this how other people’s good friends were?!

Shi Yun, due to excessive shock, instantly opened his eyes: “!”

An Huaixu didn’t dodge or feel guilty, but instead stared straight at him, even hooking a strand of his hair with his finger before slowly retracting it.

His posture seemed even somewhat regretful.

Shi Yun’s face was flushed, he coughed and pretended that nothing had happened, continuing his previous words: “Brother Huaixu, thank you.”

An Huaixu took the black fox mask and put it on his face: “Mm.”

If his movements had been a little slower, Shi Yun might have clearly seen the undisguised love in his eyes.

But unfortunately, Shi Yun was currently immersed in his own emotions.

His blood was boiling, and his heart was beating wildly again.

In the past two days, this state had appeared more often than Shi Yun could have imagined.

Although he was slow in this regard, he wasn’t so stupid that he couldn’t even distinguish his own feelings.

He thought he shouldn’t lie to himself anymore. His feelings for An Huaixu were extraordinary.

The two walked forward in silence for a few steps until they stopped in front of a red sign, and An Huaixu stopped.

Shi Yun looked in the direction of his gaze with confusion and discovered that he was looking at the ‘With Someone in Your Heart, Wishing You Well’ prayer board.

Today, the prayer board was already full of names. Shi Yun glanced over and saw names he recognized and some he didn’t.

In any case, there were all kinds of thoughts from both men and women.

Watching this, Shi Yun couldn’t help but feel touched by their feelings.

“I wonder if the Love Deity will see these wishes on today’s Mid-Autumn Festival.”

Shi Yun thought that An Huaixu wouldn’t be interested in these things, but unexpectedly, An Huaixu asked, “How do you do this?”

Shi Yun was a little surprised.

An Huaixu wanted to make a wish?

Did he already have someone in his heart?!

Shi Yun instantly felt like a withered weed, silently commemorating his first unrequited crush that had ended before it even began.

He sighed almost imperceptibly.

But this was also good.

After Shi Yun thought this, when his consciousness returned, he had already involuntarily blurted out the question, “What is the person you like like?”

An Huaixu was perhaps also a little surprised and stared at him for a few seconds before shifting his gaze.

Shi Yun realized that the question was a bit presumptuous and quickly changed the subject: “You said this—”

Unexpectedly, An Huaixu interrupted him, “He is a very gentle person. He often takes all kinds of things upon himself.

He likes children very much and sometimes unconsciously treats everyone the way he treats children.

His appearance hasn’t changed much since he was a child. The only thing is…”

He doesn’t remember me.

An Huaixu caressed the red string on his wrist, suppressing the last few words in his throat.

If others were to hear this description, they would definitely find it very familiar.

But after hearing it, Shi Yun only said with genuine emotion, “She must be a very good girl!”

An Huaixu had been observing Shi Yun’s expression the entire time he spoke and had even started pondering how he should act to not scare him if he discovered his feelings.

Unexpectedly, hearing Shi Yun’s answer, he was directly amused.

“Who told you I like women?”

This sudden turn of events caught Shi Yun off guard: “…Huh?”

Brother Huaixu doesn’t like girls?!

Shi Yun’s eyes widened.

He was shocked.

An Huaixu turned his head away, still annoyed, and continued to study the prayer board.

While Shi Yun was distracted, An Huaixu stepped forward, grabbed a blank plaque from the side of the tree, and carefully wrote something on it.

Shi Yun didn’t know if it was his curiosity acting up, but at that moment, he really wanted to get closer to him and take a look.

“Shi Yun, come here for a moment.”

An Huaixu stood in front of the prayer board and turned back to call out to Shi Yun.

Shi Yun said “oh, oh” and quickly stepped forward.

He was just about to ask what was wrong when An Huaixu handed him a plaque.

“Hang it up with me.”

Shi Yun raised his hand in confusion, and after seeing the writing on the plaque clearly, he froze in place.

‘Shi Yu’.

Who is Shi Yu?

Why did he suddenly feel so sad?
