I still didn't feel secure, hesitated a bit, then held out my hand: "Or... you can hold my sleeve." I thought he would refuse. Unexpectedly, he almost without hesitation grabbed my sleeve: "Yes." I paused a bit. Then smiled and strode home. On the way, I lowered my head to look at the sleeve being held by him, and had a very magical feeling. Like… I'm walking a big dog. He trusts me a lot, and only trusts me. When I got home, I didn't have time to throw any big party. Just sat down on the sofa for a second and fell asleep. When I woke up, it was morning the next morning. There was also an extra blanket on his body, without even thinking about it, he knew it was Luc Du Phong covering him. Oh my god, why let him go hungry for another night? I just stood up to cook rice when I saw the table full of food. Both Chinese and Western dishes, and even my favorite – cold scones! Incorrect. Didn't he spend all his money on Dou+ advertising before? Where does the money come from to buy these things? The comment appeared at the right time: "Ha ha, Luc Du Phong told his parents that he has a girlfriend." "His parents were so happy that they immediately transferred one million yuan to him, and told him not to let his girlfriend suffer any loss, and if he needed to buy a bag, just buy it." "As soon as I hung up the phone, the couple hugged each other and cried, their child has such social anxiety and there is also a girl who likes him and wants to be with him. This is definitely true love. No matter how much it costs, we must keep her." Girlfriend? Who? Is it me? No way. He probably just said that to scam his parents money. Who did he learn this habit from? I was angry and was about to knock on the door to find him, but my hand hadn't even touched the door yet. The door has opened. Initially, as usual, only a small slit was opened. But this time he hesitated for a few seconds. As if he had finally made up his mind, he slowly opened the door. Inside was a guy with an extremely handsome face. Very tall, slim figure. Wearing a warm white striped puffer jacket, but it can't hide your wide shoulders and slim waist. At this moment, his eyelids were drooping, his eyes averted, not daring to look at me. Looks very stressed and lacking confidence. I don't understand why he's so handsome but has such low self-esteem. I shyly raised my hand, trying to look natural and say hello: "Hello." In my heart, I was as happy as celebrating a festival. This must have completely let down his guard towards me, trusting me enough to appear in front of me like this. It's not easy, it's really not easy. If a person with social anxiety would do that, he would definitely consider me a real friend. Comment: "It's not easy, you two have been roommates for almost a year before you even know each other." “But what is that outfit, it looks like Michelin wheels.” Luc Du Phong blinked and finally spoke: "This is for you." At the same time, I put a card in my lap. I: "?" I looked down, bewildered. It turned out that in my hand was a bank card that could be used both domestically and internationally. Comments exploded: "Oh my god, I checked this card, guess how much money there is?" “Ninety ninety-nine thousand eight thousand six hundred seventy-eight coins four dimes one!” "It could be ninety-nine thousand, it could be ninety thousand, but it's exactly ninety-nine thousand, eight thousand, six hundred seventy-eight coins, four cents apiece! This is definitely after ordering the food and transferring the rest." It's back to the blogger!” I frowned. What does this mean? Feeling guilty about taking money from your parents asking me to help you, so you gave it all to me? Luc Du Phong saw that I didn't say anything, his face turned red. Almost stammering: “For you, hold it for me.” Ah. Probably because he was afraid that he would spend it carelessly, so he asked me to keep it for him. This is truly great trust that an introvert has for you! It almost moved me to tears, and the comments went crazy: "Directly give that much money to a blogger to keep for her? This is wanting the blogger to be my girlfriend, what else?" “If it's not love, then what is it?” “It's over, blogger, he loves you, prepare to be stuck.” “The saying 'If you want to keep a man, you must keep his stomach' is truly true! No more talking, I'm going to learn cooking!” I glared at the comment. What girlfriend? You guys don't understand. How difficult it is to be friends with someone with severe social anxiety. Don't tarnish our pure friendship, okay? Must believe in the sacred bond of friendship! From that day on, Luc Du Phong no longer stayed in his room all day. Go out for walks often. I just don't understand why he keeps following me, wherever I go, he goes. It wasn't until I said I had to go to the library that he stopped at the door. I turned around and smiled at him: "See you tonight." Luc Du Phong hesitated a bit. “So I... I want to go too.” I was skeptical: “Really? The library is very crowded.” Luc Du Phong still nodded resolutely: "I want to go." "Okay." I thought for a moment, then held out my hand: "Then you can hold my sleeve." Comment: "It's true that I can't bear to be away from my wife for even a second. As soon as I heard that my wife came home last night, I panicked. Not seeing her for seven or eight hours is even scarier than going out." "When I heard that I had to go out to meet someone, I immediately pretended to be stupid. I chased after my wife and was clearly smart." I wrote my thesis in the library. Luc Du Phong huddled next to me reading a book very quietly. I stood up, and he immediately tried to stand up too. I quickly explained: "I'm just going to the bathroom." He didn't feel shy at all, looking at me very seriously: "Then I'll go to the bathroom too." Done, now I have a toilet companion. When the weather was nice and sunny, we together took the blankets downstairs to dry. After drying the blanket, Luc Du Phong felt as if he had been pardoned and planned to return home. I waved: "Then you can go home first, I'll go for a walk in the park." Luc Du Phong immediately stopped, turned around: "Then I also want to go..." Okay. Maybe he finds it sad to be alone at home. As friends, we should be together. Commenters were completely shocked: "I can't believe it, a month ago I was so afraid of society that my language was about to degenerate, and now I'm running after my wife everywhere like nothing happened." "Not only that, before I didn't even dare to come and see people. Now my wife asks me to look after her bicycle in front of the supermarket, afraid it will be stolen.
