Producer System: My Girlfriend is a Cellist-Chapter 86 - 81: No, That’s Crossing the Line

Inside the dessert shop named "Five-character Sugar Room".

The lighting is bright and the decor has a fresh, minimalist vibe.

The clientele here are all young.

Gan Yanyu, dressed in a black slip dress revealing her lovely collarbones, exudes a cool elegance.

She sits near the floor-to-ceiling window, her exquisite face reflected on the glass, as beautiful as a part of the store’s scenery.

This cool and beautiful girl gracefully raises her spoon and puts a scoop of bouncy, smooth mango pudding into her mouth.

"Mmm~"

Suddenly, she cups her cheeks, emitting a sound of bliss.

"Delicious!"

"I’m glad you like it."

Lin Tian smiles wryly across the table, somewhat helplessly speaking out.

"..."

Having pocketed an advertisement fee of a hundred thousand and used a "Double Card",

Another hundred thousand gets transferred into the account.

Now, the balance is two hundred thousand.

He had planned to pick a nice restaurant to splurge on, maybe drop seven to eight hundred bucks.

Instead, he furiously picked a dessert shop, where seventy to eighty bucks’ worth of pudding decisively fills you up!

"Lin Tian, why aren’t you eating? Don’t you like it?" ƒreewebɳovel.com

Gan Yanyu asks curiously, spoon in hand.

Lin Tian glances at the mound of red liquid flowing in front of him.

And continues excavating.

"..."

Anyway, this is probably his last outing before the music concert.

He decides to take it as a chance to relax.

As long as Teacher Yanyu likes it, all is good.

"Hah—"

Gan Yanyu yawns and takes out her phone.

"The day after tomorrow, Tuesday, nine o’clock in the morning, there’s a dress rehearsal for the concert, and all performers must attend."

"Dress rehearsal?" Lin Tian muses.

"That’s right, a full run-through. We need to go over the entire process. It’s common to have a rehearsal the day before for important large-scale concerts."

"That’s good."

Not just for Gan Yanyu, even Lin Tian himself is attending a concert for the first time.

Running through a rehearsal and familiarizing himself with the process sounds good.

Plus, it would help alleviate some of Gan Yanyu’s nerves.

"That day you’ll need to get up early. Even though it’s not the official performance, all the teachers in attendance will be taking notes, so we need to wear makeup."

"Do I have to wear makeup too?" Lin Tian is taken aback.

"Of course, all performers onstage need to wear makeup," says Gan Yanyu.

Then, the girl tilts her head, sizing up Lin Tian,

"Lin Tian, I think with makeup..."

"What about it?"

"You’d probably look pretty good."

Gan Yanyu smiles subtly.

"Why do you say ’probably’?"

Lin Tian challenges the lack of precision in Yanyu’s words.

Isn’t his handsomeness indisputable?

"Well, then it’s definitely going to look great."

Gan Yanyu nods her head.

With such a perfunctory manner, Lin Tian doesn’t even feel like teasing her.

But speaking of makeup,

Although many men view makeup as somewhat effeminate, proving a man’s charm never depended on looks.

But in fact, if it comes to actually wearing makeup, Lin Tian himself isn’t opposed to it.

After all, he’s going to be on camera, and now even esports players get their makeup done before going onstage, so it’s not weird.

"Lin Tian, don’t you like this? Why aren’t you eating it?"

Gan Yanyu looks at the still towering pile of watermelon ice in front of Lin Tian with a slightly troubled expression.

If he ordered the dessert just to accommodate her, the girl would feel quite embarrassed.

"I remember last time you came, you finished it quickly. I thought you liked it..."

Actually, he still likes it.

Mainly the joy of playing the gravedigger.

"Then....do you want to try mine?"

Gan Yanyu suddenly picked up a spoon and scooped a spoonful of pudding, slowly offering it in front of Lin Tian.

Lin Tian was instantly stunned.

This is...

Is she suggesting for me to bite it directly?

Isn’t this an indirect kiss?

"It’s really delicious."

Gan Yanyu lifted the falling hair on her cheek, tilted her head, and looked at Lin Tian earnestly.

"Want to try?"

Looking at Gan Yanyu’s spoon.

The smooth pudding, shiny and glossy.

Lin Tian has never been interested in this stuff.

But at this moment, this spoonful of pudding seemed to be coated with a layer of deliciousness, full of temptation.

As if, with just one bite... the sweetness would stretch out.

Lin Tian took a deep breath.

He leaned forward, slowly drawing closer...

Just as his lips were about to touch—

"Ouch, no~"

Gan Yanyu abruptly withdrew the spoon, looking at the pudding in her hand, her face slightly red,

"This spoon is used by me. Giving it to you like this would cross the line."

"..."

Alright, alright, alright.

Should I commend you for being sensible? For remembering our agreement so well!

And even knowing how to apply it in practice!!

Lin Tian inwardly almost gnashed his teeth as he said this.

He just really wanted to taste what mango pudding was like!

"Use your own spoon to scoop..."

Gan Yanyu said, but then realized that this seemed a bit inappropriate too, so she directly moved the remaining whole cup of pudding in front of Lin Tian...

Suddenly, Lin Tian stretched out his hand and pressed down on the girl’s arm.

"....?"

Gan Yanyu was startled.

Then, Lin Tian grabbed Gan Yanyu’s hand.

He asked sternly:

"What’s with these calluses?"

On the girl’s slender and fair fingers.

In the middle of her fingertips, several hard calluses had formed.

These little calluses, each had their own shape, like tiny hills, shining under the light of the dessert shop, casting a faint glow, as if telling their own stories.

"I..... I’ve always had calluses on my hands..."

"No."

Lin Tian interrupted Gan Yanyu decisively.

He remembered very clearly that last week, when Gan Yanyu was cooking at his house, it was not like this.

At that time, Lin Tian had paid special attention.

Gan Yanyu’s hands had always been soft and smooth, although they bore some traces of long-term music practice, but overall, it didn’t affect the fact that they remained very white and beautiful.

But now, Gan Yanyu’s palms had become a bit rougher than before, and the calluses on the fingertips seemed like they had only recently formed.

"I’ve been practicing a bit too much lately."

"Just a bit?"

"Let’s buy a bottle of hand cream later."

"I don’t think hand cream is the issue here."

"Ha—"

Gan Yanyu yawned again.

This time, her brown eyes squeezed out two tears.

The girl rubbed her eyes.

"I’m sleepy, let’s go back to sleep in a bit."

"Tomorrow night, let’s practice earlier, to prepare for the rehearsal the day after tomorrow."

"Okay?"

Gan Yanyu lifted her head, gazing at Lin Tian.

With a pleading tone.

"...."

Seeing Gan Yanyu like this, Lin Tian ultimately could not continue questioning on this topic.

He could only sigh softly,

"Mmm, rest early."

"Don’t overwork yourself, if you collapse before the concert even starts due to intense practice, it would be a loss not worth the gain."
