Some Trivial Matters from the Past

Taking Su Yuyao into the famous food plaza in N City, the two of them strolled slowly along the road crowded with food stalls.

On the way.

Su Yuyao's eyes were shining brightly.

Her gaze was like a hopscotch playing piece, bouncing back and forth between the various food stalls.

Lin Yu accompanied her on the slow stroll, focusing most of his attention on her.

Whenever he saw her gaze linger on a food stall for a little longer, he would thoughtfully ask if she wanted to eat something from it.

Su Yuyao would sometimes nod and sometimes shake her head.

Most of the time, Lin Yu would choose to follow Su Yuyao's wishes.

But occasionally, for some rather bizarre foods, Lin Yu would refuse without hesitation.

Oh.

We are not eating this.

What is there to eat about this?

This is all soaked in stinky sock water. You will get athlete's foot if you eat it.

No, no.

Lin Yu ignored the stinky tofu stall owner's murderous glare and pulled the reluctant Su Yuyao away from the stinky tofu stall.

After getting far away from that foul-smelling stinky tofu stall, Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Lin Yu knew that the stinky tofu could not possibly be soaked in stinky sock water.

But that thing was so smelly, who knew what was really in it?

Lin Yu would not dare let Su Yuyao eat it.

Besides.

Such a fragrant and soft loli.

Is strictly forbidden from becoming smelly!

After silently complaining in his heart, Lin Yu glanced sideways at the person next to him.

Subconsciously checking on Su Yuyao's condition.

With a glance, Lin Yu found that Su Yuyao's attention had been caught by something else again.

Following her covetous gaze, Lin Yu spotted a fried food stall.

It was just that this fried food stall was a bit special; it fried insects like scorpions and cicadas...

Three imaginary black dots appeared sequentially over Lin Yu's head, showing his speechlessness.

Could we please crave some normal food?

While Lin Yu was silently grumbling.

Su Yuyao had already turned her head. She raised her face and looked eagerly at Lin Yu, practically having the words I want to taste it written on her face.

Lin Yu's face darkened, and he rejected her without hesitation.

Kidding me.

You cannot just eat random junk during pregnancy!

Holding Su Yuyao's hand, Lin Yu pulled her to continue walking down the snack street.

After strolling for a good while longer.

The two of them, carrying a bountiful harvest of snacks, found an empty table.

Before sitting down, Lin Yu took a pack of tissues he had bought earlier out of his pants pocket.

He opened the package, took out a tissue, and thoroughly wiped the spot where Su Yuyao was going to sit several times.

In the past, Lin Yu definitely would not have done such an unnecessary thing.

Let alone this seemingly clean chair, even on uncleaned stone steps by the roadside, Lin Yu would casually plop down whenever he was tired.

Who cares about dirty or clean.

At worst, he would just pat his butt when getting up.

But now.

When facing Su Yuyao, Lin Yu began to care about these details he used to dismiss.

Actually, when it comes down to it.

Lin Yu was not really caring about the details themselves.

He cared about Su Yuyao, and he cared about that little life.

When you care too much about someone.

You naturally start to care about these insignificant details.

After wiping the chair clean, Lin Yu threw away the tissue, pulled a few new ones from the pack, and began to wipe the table in front of them.

While wiping the table, Lin Yu suddenly had a strange feeling of being touched by the scene.

This feeling had nothing to do with any adult manga plotlines.

It was just a simple emotion, recalling the past because of something right in front of him.

But what made Lin Yu feel strange was that he could not remember ever wiping a chair for anyone else.

Not when he went out with Tang Manman.

She was a child from a poor family. Although she was a neat little girl, she was not so delicate that she could not bear a speck of dust on her clothes.

Not when he went out with Xia Muzhu either.

Although she liked to be clean and was a bit of a neat freak, when she went out...

...

No.

Actually, whether they were out or not, she was always very accommodating to him.

Since his personality was careless, she would not fuss over those details.

This had never happened when going out with Qing Mo either.

Usually, when he went out with her, the locations were all super high-end places.

Let alone finding a dirty chair that needed wiping, even a fly getting in would be considered a major incident there!

And speaking of which.

If it were her.

Just making her sit in a less-than-clean place would seemingly make her unhappy.

Because it would feel like the impact was too light, not even as good as a tickle...

...

Then it was a bit strange.

Lin Yu could not quite figure it out.

Since he had never wiped a chair for someone so attentively like this before.

Then what memory was this scene triggering?

Lin Yu frowned, and after thinking carefully.

Lin Yu figured it out.

He had never wiped chairs and tables in a snack street for anyone in the past.

But it seemed someone had wiped chairs and tables in a snack street for him.

Right.

It was Gu Yue.

Sometimes, when he would just sit down anywhere, she would always try to put a tissue under his butt.

Sniffing.

Lin Yu suddenly found it a bit funny.

If Gu Yue knew he was going to be a father, who knows how shocked she would be.

At an age where everyone is still in school, you quietly started a family.

According to her temper, she would definitely widen her eyes into perfect circles, and then call him Brother Long repeatedly, chattering on endlessly.

Actually, for all this time, Lin Yu and Gu Yue had never lost touch.

Most of the time...

...

No.

Almost every time they chatted, it was Gu Yue who sent the first message.

When he was free, he would chat with her for a while; when he was busy, he had no time to entertain her.

However, she seemed to have never been angry about this kind of thing.

Even if sometimes the messages she sent received no reply.

The next time she sent a message, she still seemed happy and cheerful.

Like a lively little fish that could not hold a grudge.

Thinking of that girl Gu Yue.

Lin Yu subconsciously gave a faint smile.

Her life now seemed to be going pretty well.

At least, judging from the daily life updates she shared with him for no particular reason, that was the case.

Straightening his back, he threw the somewhat dirty tissue in his hand into the trash can next to the table.

Lin Yu pulled another tissue from the pack, unfolded it, and folded it over again.

He continued wiping the table in front of him, the kind meant for tourists to use freely.

As he wiped.

Lin Yu's movements suddenly paused.

He suddenly realized something.

That brain of his, which was always particularly dense when it came to a certain someone, suddenly clicked in this moment.

It overlapped what he was doing now with what Gu Yue had done back then.

It was not until this moment.

That Lin Yu finally had a sudden realization.

It seemed Gu Yue really did not just see him as a boss and a friend.
