123: Chapter 123 Holy crap, you secretly filmed me? What do you mean secretly filmed me? I did it openly and honestly.

However, Shen Qingxue did not look at him. She lowered her head, her bangs covering half of her face, making her expression unclear, but the tips of her ears were slightly red.

"Hmm... I'm not joking."

Hearing this, Lu Li's tone immediately carried a hint of smugness, along with a trace of tenderness that even he hadn't noticed.

"Alright then, wait until I write the song first and then teach you. I guarantee it won't be hard. With your level, you'll master it in minutes."

Shen Qingxue softly hummed an "hmm" and didn't speak again.

Lu Li didn't speak again either, concentrating on driving.

...

After returning home, Lu Li couldn't help but stretch.

"What should we eat for lunch?"

"Let's just have something simple."

Lu Li nodded and was about to turn toward the living room when Shen Qingxue suddenly called out to him.

"Right, after we finish eating later, send out the audio source of 'summer wind' first."

"Mhm, I know."

Lu Li waved his hand, walked to the living room, plopped down on the sofa, took out his phone, and opened Douyin.

On the backend of the "Rock Sugar Pear" account, the number of followers had already broken through 900,000, beginning to approach the million mark.

In the comment section of the latest video, quite a few netizens were already urging for the complete audio source of "summer wind".

Clearly, the result of their participation in the competition this time was very good, achieving a fantastic promotional effect.

[When is the full version of "summer wind" coming out? I really can't wait!]

[I recorded the audition video and listened to it repeatedly for over a dozen times. Please release the audio source already, I'm begging you!]

[The Goddess is truly stunning today, and the song is also stunning, Lu Li is also stun... Um, Lu Li didn't come, so never mind.]

Lu Li looked at this comment, the corner of his mouth twitching.

What does it mean by "he didn't come, so never mind"?

Come on, he went there too, alright?! He just didn't go on stage!

Seriously, this generation of netizens is so hard to manage.

Grumbling, Lu Li exited the comment section and then began editing the caption for the new video.

...

Before long, Shen Qingxue walked out of the kitchen carrying dishes—three dishes and one soup, still as lavish as ever.

The two of them sat facing each other eating, neither speaking.

Halfway through the meal, Lu Li suddenly asked.

"Right, when will the competition results come out?"

Shen Qingxue thought for a moment, then said,

"Hmm... The officials said that before 12:00 noon tomorrow, they will announce the list of people entering the semifinals, and then they will also announce the topic for the next match."

Lu Li nodded and didn't say anything more.

Because judging by the current situation, Shen Qingxue's results were one hundred percent secure; they just needed to wait for the good news.

After finishing the meal, Lu Li was cleaning up the bowls and chopsticks.

Meanwhile, Shen Qingxue leaned against the sofa, took out her phone, and watched her audition video from today from start to finish.

Listening to it, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

This song was really nice to listen to; even though she was already very familiar with it, she still felt that way.

Before long, Shen Qingxue reined in her thoughts, opened her personal account backend again, and began editing the caption.

As for the group's account, Lu Li would post there too.

But on her own account, what kind of caption suitable for driving traffic should she edit? This stumped her all of a sudden.

Shen Qingxue typed a few words, then deleted them, deleted them and typed again, repeating it several times.

To be honest, she wasn't very good at writing these things.

Shen Qingxue sighed softly, raised her head, her gaze wandering unconsciously around the living room.

Then, her line of sight fell on the kitchen doorway.

Lu Li was standing in front of the sink, sideways to her, slightly bent over washing dishes.

Looking at this scene, an idea suddenly popped into Shen Qingxue's heart.

She hesitated for about 0.0001 seconds, then picked up her phone, opened the camera, and quietly aimed it in the direction of the kitchen.

Lu Li in the lens was completely oblivious.

Shen Qingxue didn't hesitate, decisively recording it.

"Click."

The sound of Lu Li humming paused for a moment, and he subconsciously turned his head to look over.

Shen Qingxue quickly hid her phone behind her back, her expression instantly switching to a nonchalant look.

However, after someone does something bad, the more they want to act nonchalant, the more awkward they usually end up looking.

Shen Qingxue right now was just like that.

"What was that sound?"

Lu Li poked half his body out of the kitchen, looking puzzled.

"It's nothing."

Shen Qingxue's tone was calm, but the tips of her ears were already starting to burn slightly.

Lu Li stared at her for two seconds, always feeling like something wasn't quite right, but unable to put his finger on it.

But out of trust in her, Lu Li still didn't think much of it, gave an "oh", and pulled his head back in.

After he went back, Shen Qingxue slowly took her phone out from behind her back, unlocked the screen, and opened the photo album.

The latest photo was precisely the one she took just now.

In the frame, Lu Li was standing in front of the sink, slightly bent over washing dishes, his profile facing the lens.

To be honest, it was actually quite good-looking.

Shen Qingxue stared at the photo for a few seconds, the corners of her mouth unconsciously curving into an arc, and then she began editing the caption.

[Welcome everyone to head over to the @Rock Sugar Pear account to listen to the full version of "summer wind", and thanks to @Lu Li for the lyrics and composition]

After typing the last word, Shen Qingxue casually uploaded the photo she took just now, and then pressed the send button.

After sending it, she nonchalantly began scrolling through videos.

Meanwhile, Lu Li, who had just finished washing the dishes, was getting annoyed by his constantly vibrating phone.

What the heck, it kept buzzing continuously; anyone who didn't know would think he stuffed a vibrating motor into his crotch.

Afterwards, Lu Li took out his phone and lowered his head to look.

The notification bar was crammed densely with mention alerts on the screen, and the phone in his hand was still vibrating endlessly with an "hm-hm-hm" sound.

"Oh damn it, what is everyone doing, what are you all doing?!"

Grumbling, Lu Li randomly tapped on a mention notification, and the next second he was redirected to Shen Qingxue's homepage.

The caption didn't have any issues...

The problem was the accompanying picture below.

Lu Li stared at that photo, completely dumbfounded.

"Holy shit, did you take a picture of me?!"

Stunned for a full few seconds, Lu Li suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the living room.

Hearing Lu Li's voice, Shen Qingxue raised her head to glance at him, then put her hands on her hips, her expression instantly turning a bit haughty.

"What sneaking a picture? I took that openly and aboveboard."

Lu Li's mouth twitched, then he walked over to Shen Qingxue and looked down at her condescendingly.

"Openly and aboveboard? How come I didn't know?"

"You were washing dishes at the time and just didn't pay attention."

Shen Qingxue spoke utter nonsense with a straight face, but her expression grew increasingly guilty.

However, Lu Li wanted to refute, but found that he was actually at a loss for words and didn't know how to argue back.

Even he himself didn't know what was going on.

If it were anyone else, he could come up with ten thousand different reasons to refute, but the person in front of him happened to be Shen Qingxue.

How was he supposed to refute this?
