My Neighbor Is A Freeloader

Chapter 31[Can Someone Stop This Lunapig!?]

Tzuyu does not understand Sana’s obsession to see the Herdsman meteor shower. That is a 4-time occurrence in 100 years and chances of seeing the rare phenomenon is really minuscule; unless her real aim is to go out on a date with him?

But if she is so desperate to go out on a date, why would she choose such a hard-to-spot meteor shower? If they do not see anything, won’t it spoil the mood? And if her aim is not a date, what then is her real motive?

When his brain cannot find the answer, Tzuyu turns to the forum and starts a post with the title: If a woman insists on bringing a man along to see a meteor shower, what does it mean?

Tzuyu is a popular chapter in the forum and his posts are usually greeted with replies like

“Mr Genius!, Please take a picture with me!”

“May I have your autograph?”, etc.

Still, there are several reply associated with academics in the forum and many start reply that may be that girl wants to talk about astronomy. He is a bit disappointed with those replies. After a while, Tzuyu interrupts their enthusiastic replies with: She does not know all these. She is a Commerce student who majored in Business Management.

That got everyone thinking. Someone called Little Sapphire replies: It must be because she likes you!?

Then Tzuyu replies a bit proudly: I know that.

That riggers the comment section with a chorus of “Oh my gosh” and “ Those showing off their love-dovey stuff should be lynched!”

Little Sapphire is more patient and replies: She must be wanting to confess her liking for you but lacks the courage to do so. Even pigs know how hard it is to see a Herdsman meteor shower so if you guys see it, it must mean that you guys are fated. When it happens, she will find the courage to speak up…. arrrhhhh! I also want to fall in love! Can some woman chase after me please?

Many who read the post agrees with the first part but when they see his last bit, they hold back their reply and rather pretend they do not know this fellow. Tzuyu also thinks that Little Sapphire has a point. Gauging by her careful maneuvering, it should be about time she professes her liking for him. Regardless of the method she chooses, Tzuyu is actually quite touched by Sana’s efforts and thinks that her idea is already quite good for a dummy.
How comes his Dumb Dumb Squirrel becomes a smart squirrel overnight!?

The next afternoon is the regular lunch date with his brother and father. Professor Yoo should be able to visit Seoul in about a month’s time and is feeling rather happy. Even when he sees many dishes that he likes but cannot eat across the webcam, his good spirits remains undaunted. As they eat, Professor Yoo asks his youngest son with pretend nonchalance: “How are things going between you and Sana?”

Jeongyeon silently gives his dad a thumbs-up for his way of lulling Tzuyu into a false sense of security before turning on the question tap. He pauses the act of picking up something with his chopsticks and waits for the reply which Tzuyu replies easily:

“She is about to profess her liking for me.”

The two Yoos are surprised and delighted to hear this but Jeongyeon is a bit more cautious. “What makes you so sure?”

Qiao Feng tells them about the upcoming trip to see the Herdsman meteor shower and he even tells them his calculation of the possibility of Sana confessing to him. Professor Yoo nods his head.

“I think your analysis is correct that Sana is about to confess her feelings. Little Rascal, have you decided to accept or reject her? Warning, there is only one correct answer. If you give the wrong answer, see how I will come after you when I am back!”
