Only when the poster drifted along the ground and disappeared without a trace did Lin Jiayu release Su Hao.
"You…" Looking at the red-faced Lin Jiayu, Su Hao opened his mouth but didn't know what to say, because Lin Jiayu was crying.
"I thought you weren't coming!" Wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, Lin Jiayu threw herself into Su Hao's arms, hugging him tightly.
"Sorry, I had a call with the president on the way here, so I was a little late." Su Hao gently hugged Lin Jiayu, burying his head in her hair.
"You… when did you tell me to wait for you at the club? I have no memory of it at all," Lin Jiayu slowly spoke after hugging Su Hao for a long time.
"Last night when we were showering, I said it several times."
"We were doing other things then, how could I remember?" Lin Jiayu mumbled, then looked up, holding Su Hao's shoulders.
"Just this once, you're absolutely not allowed to be late next time. Unless you're very busy, but you have to tell me you're busy in advance."
"You look like a young girl in love right now." Seeing Lin Jiayu try to threaten him but not quite daring to, Su Hao burst out laughing.
"It's all because of you!" Lin Jiayu unhappily patted Su Hao: "All day today, no calls, no messages, which made me think you… think you…"
"Thought I didn't want you anymore?" Su Hao ruffled Lin Jiayu's hair and said softly, "You're so cute, how could I not want you?"
However, Lin Jiayu's words did remind Su Hao that he should call Peilin later when he had time to comfort her.
"All you know is sweet talk, no actual action." Lin Jiayu mumbled, "Other couples, after experiencing something like that, would spend some quality time together. Who's like you, running faster than a rabbit first thing in the morning."
"Didn't I spend the night with you yesterday?"
"Was that 'quality time'? That was clearly… never mind, I'm not talking to you, go put up the posters!" Lin Jiayu huffily shoved the posters into Su Hao's arms.
"No need to put them up. I just asked Lin Yingchun, and she said we don't need to put up all the posters. The rest can be put in the prop room and given as freebies during the play. Because too many were printed, they never intended to put them all up," Su Hao said with a smile, holding Lin Jiayu's hand.
"Ah… so that's how it is. Why didn't Jiazhen Xuejie tell me? When I see her, I must punish her properly!" Lin Jiayu pouted, displeased.
"I actually think we should thank her," Su Hao chuckled.
"Thank her?" Lin Jiayu was stunned for a moment, then realized, "Of course you, you pervert, would thank her. By the way, what did the president call you about?"
"Uh… just a small matter… a small matter." Su Hao's expression changed, and he said unnaturally.
Lin Yingchun only said seven words on the phone: "Today, eight o'clock, see you at the hotel."
"If you don't want to say, then don't." Lin Jiayu snorted, staring suspiciously at Su Hao, "You didn't really manage to get the president too, did you?"
"I swear to heaven, absolutely not!" Su Hao declared emphatically.
"Actually, it doesn't matter even if you did, I don't have the right to control you anyway. And I'm quite curious what the president looks like doing that kind of thing," Lin Jiayu mumbled, turning to look at the sky, "Since we don't need to put up posters, then let's go eat."
"Okay, what do you want to eat?" Su Hao stepped forward, took her hand, and walked with her towards the distant sunset.
…
Ten minutes later, in front of a certain coffee shop, Su Hao was silently speechless. Why do all the girls in Korean Comics like to drink coffee?
"Let's go, the desserts here are especially delicious!" Lin Jiayu waved at Su Hao, happily running into the shop.
In a short while, she had chosen a large pile of desserts.
"Eating so much? Aren't you afraid of getting fat?" Su Hao sat across from Lin Jiayu, watching her stuff one dessert after another into her stomach.
"No, I'm not afraid, I have a metabolism that doesn't gain weight!" Lin Jiayu clenched her fists, making a gesture of lifting a barbell.
As a result, the cream on her fork quietly slipped off, landing right on her fair chest.
"Ah… tissue… tissue!" Lin Jiayu held up her fork, hurriedly reaching out her hand.
"This dollop of cream has lived a fulfilling life," Su Hao handed her a tissue, enviously staring at the cream on Lin Jiayu's chest.
"Hey! What do you mean by that look? What's there to envy? What you did last night was much worse than cream, wasn't it?" Lin Jiayu said while wiping her chest.
"Seems so." Su Hao scratched his head, "What should we do after finishing dessert? How about we go eat some barbecue?"
"Do you think I'm a pig? I'm full after these few cakes," Lin Jiayu mumbled.
"Then forget it, I was originally thinking of going for barbecue together," Su Hao said regretfully.
"We can go, cake digests quickly," Lin Jiayu realized that eating barbecue together meant she could spend more time with Su Hao, so she quickly changed her mind.
"How about we get the barbecue to go and eat it in the prop room? We need to go there to put away the posters anyway."
"That works too, I'm fine with anything." Lin Jiayu saw that Su Hao was indeed planning to spend a lot of time with her today, so she smiled happily.
"Then I'll call the barbecue shop owner now and ask him to pack it for us. When you finish your cake, we can just pick it up there."
"Okay~"
…
"I ate so much cake just now, I'm so full," Lin Jiayu said, rubbing her stomach as she left the coffee shop with Su Hao.
"Then why did you make me buy such a big serving of ice cream?"
"Because ice cream goes into another stomach," Lin Jiayu playfully winked, "And ice cream can aid digestion."
"I've only heard that ice cream gives people diarrhea, but diarrhea counts as aiding digestion, I guess," Su Hao shrugged, then turned his head and saw two "fatal love" promotional posters by the roadside.
And the posters were huge, with Su Hao's abs on them each the size of a human head. Many people were gathered around the posters taking pictures, mostly girls, and some even boldly touching Su Hao's abs on the poster.
"The president really went all out with the promotion for this play," Su Hao whispered, but then a few girls from over there seemed to spot him and quickly ran over.
"Run!" Lin Jiayu's heart tightened, and she grabbed Su Hao's hand, quickly leaving.
Under the night sky, she left behind a string of bell-like laughter.
"Why are you running so fast?" After running all the way to the school gate, Su Hao was perfectly fine, but Lin Jiayu was already breathing heavily.
"Because… because I want to be alone with you," Lin Jiayu said in gasps, leaning on her knees.
"It's not like we don't have these few days, there'll be plenty of time in the future," Su Hao said softly, slowly squatting down in front of Lin Jiayu.
"You… what are you doing?" Lin Jiayu guessed Su Hao's intention, and her heart rate instantly accelerated.
"Carrying you on my back," Su Hao patted his shoulder, turning his head to give Lin Jiayu a smile.
"You're so good to me!" In her excitement, Lin Jiayu heavily pounced on him.
