Chapter 559 Pets
The night in this small coastal city in southern Jiangsu is like a forest of neon lights. A light rain fell near nightfall. The drizzle did not bring coldness to the city, but left shallow water.

Light and shadow flow in the mirror-like water, like a blooming kaleidoscope, but this can only give us a glimpse of a corner of the city's prosperity.

Lu Mingfei parked his car downstairs and went upstairs. Although Su Xiaoqiang had said confidently before that he didn't need his company, when he really wanted to come back, the latter was reluctant to leave.

It was not until the moon was high above the willows and the car that came to pick her up flashed its lights several times that the girl, with her arms full of flowers, looked back every few steps. She left reluctantly while telling him fiercely the consequences of standing him up.

As the year draws to a close, southern Jiangsu has become much busier, but the suburbs of this corner of the city have become much cooler. Even though southern Jiangsu has regained its sunny weather, the abnormally low temperatures before January still made many people choose to flee here.

Lu Mingfei subconsciously looked up and saw that the lights in those familiar windows, whether upstairs, downstairs or on the side, were all off.

After the alarm was sounded in Rome, almost all the best commissioners from all over the world rushed to Italy.

The same thing happened to Renata and the others. When the wind angels were causing trouble in Italy, they received the news and rushed to Italy quickly. However, by the time they landed, the Mediterranean Sea that had caused the typhoon had calmed down.

The Uesugi sisters also traveled with them. After Uesugi Yue became the head of the family again, the Uesugi family has always been a branch of Kassel Academy. As the last hybrids of the Japanese hybrids, the Uesugi sisters are one of the few who can deal with the level of danger of extraordinary invasion.

Also, they must have been scared because he, who had given them Christmas presents the day before, had "disappeared" there.

Most of the girls are still in Italy now. Perhaps even Lu Ma, the secret promoter of the Nibelungen Project, doesn’t know that so many girls on the project list will gather there.

Lu Mingfei suddenly felt a little headache. The girls would not stay in Italy for too long. Perhaps in another day, the girls would return one after another. By then, this place would surely be lively again.

But... thinking of the girls who would gather together, Lu Mingfei felt a trace of cold sweat sliding down his forehead for the first time in a long time.

Then, he suddenly laughed. This was not bad. Young boys and girls should worry about such youthful things. And he himself was just a boy in his youth.

Although the days in the spring are sunny, they are not like the summer after all. Even at night, it is hot and uncomfortable. As night falls, the old voice-activated lights light up in the slightly chilly corridors. The loss of popularity makes this already lonely community even colder.

Lu Mingfei went upstairs as usual, and then suddenly stopped in front of the corridor on his floor.

It seemed that due to the aging of the circuit, the voice-activated lights on this floor were a little slow. He silently looked at the corridor in the dark and said softly, "Come out."

The sound-activated light was startled, and although it lit up, it flickered as if there was a bad connection. At the corner at the end of the corridor, a figure hiding behind the wall was also startled by the sound.

Lu Mingfei looked at the corridor silently. The figure seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then walked out from the corner tremblingly.

The poorly connected voice-activated light finally stabilized, and the aisle was illuminated. Lu Mingfei silently looked at Chen Wenwen, who lowered her head and dared not look at him, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "What are you doing here?"

"...waiting...waiting for you to come back." Still with her head down, Chen Wenwen answered him stutteringly.

Sneaky is not enough to describe Chen Wenwen now. She is wearing a long white windbreaker with the front buttons buttoned tightly. Her face is almost buried in the collar, and only through the gaps between the scattered hair can you see her face and neck, which are as red as dripping blood.

Even though Lu Mingfei was used to Chen Wenwen's abnormality, he still had a headache after seeing this scene. Fortunately, there were not many people in this old building now, and the possibility of being caught was extremely low, otherwise the abnormal behavior of this girl would become the talk of the town of Sunan tomorrow.

"How did you know this place?" Lu Mingfei looked at Chen Wenwen, who was wrapped tightly and whose eyes would occasionally tremble at his gaze. The latter did not bring the big bag that she almost always carried with her when she saw him.

Chen Wenwen lowered her head even more when she heard this: "Your home address is on the club member information list. I haven't heard from you for a month, so I come to see you occasionally..."

Lu Mingfei paused for a moment after hearing this, and looked down. Besides him, the only residents on this floor were Renata and her friends across the door. But compared to other floors, the place had not been covered with too much dust after being unattended for more than a month.

It seems that Chen Wenwen's visit here may not just be "occasionally" as she said.

Chen Wenwen raised her head carefully, glanced at Lu Mingfei quickly, and then continued to shrink back into her collar and pretended to be an ostrich: "Are you...are you angry?"

"Why should I be angry?" Lu Mingfei glanced at her and asked.

Chen Wenwen whispered, "You're angry that I came to you without telling you."

"I'm not narrow-minded enough to get angry in a place like this." Lu Mingfei said, opening the door to one side, then tilted his head and asked, "Do you want to come in?"

When he met Chen Wenwen today, he knew that she, who seemed to leave decisively, would probably not really go back honestly, so he was not surprised to see her here now. What really surprised him was her outfit that looked a little strange.

Chen Wenwen seemed to be relieved after hearing his answer, and finally raised her head. Her face was still ruddy, all the way to the base of her neck, making people wonder if even the skin under her clothes was red.

Although Chen Wenwen dared to raise her head, she still twisted her body uneasily and looked around. Rather than not daring to look Lu Mingfei in the eye, she looked more like she was afraid that someone would pass by while she was talking to Lu Mingfei.

As if she had confirmed that there was really no one else here, Chen Wenwen raised her head and had the courage to look Lu Mingfei in the eye. However, despite this, her ruddy face did not improve, and her evasive eyes were as moist as if she had just been fished out of the water.

She took a long breath, as if she was enduring something, and her voice trembled a little: "I think... it's okay here."

“Anything is fine?” Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows again, and then quickly understood what this meant.

Chen Wenwen trembled as she unbuttoned her long windbreaker, exposing her rosy, almost naked skin to the slightly cold air. This also answered one of Lu Mingfei's questions. When she blushed, her face and body were indeed red. Then Lu Mingfei's other question was also answered. The reason why Chen Wenwen didn't bring her big bag was because she already had everything on her...

On the second night after returning from the world behind the door, and on the first night of a date with Su Xiaoqiang, Lu Mingfei got his "pet".

This pet is very playful and likes to be led for a walk in the dark corridor late at night. Occasionally, it will stop silently, and will not bark even with its mouth blocked, and will only continue to move forward after being gently whipped.

……

The sun shone into Lu Mingfei's room through the cracks in the window. He stretched out his naked upper body in the bright sunshine. The "pet" that had cried softly and continuously when excited last night had gone back, and the room that had become a little messy because of her arrival had also been tidied up.

Lu Mingfei came to the living room, which had been cleaned. It had been vacant for a month, so it was covered with a lot of dust. He opened the refrigerator and was surprised to find that breakfast had been prepared.

This "pet" was more well-behaved than he had imagined. She took back all the things she brought with her, without any trace of last night's fun.

When Lu Mingfei finished his meal, Su Xiaoqiang's call came on time.

"Too slow!" As soon as he went downstairs, Lu Mingfei saw Su Xiaoqiang complaining with his arms crossed.

Today, the little angel is still bright and beautiful, but contrary to her usual behavior, she did not wear her favorite skirt. Slim jeans and light casual shoes are very suitable for travel, and the shirt and jacket look full of vitality.

Strictly speaking, the Lunar New Year has not yet passed, so it is not yet spring. But no matter who sees Su Xiaoqiang now, they can't help but sigh that spring is so beautiful.

"It's you who's anxious, isn't it?" Lu Mingfei glanced at her, then looked at the heavy suitcase beside her, "I say, let's just go out for one night."

Lu Mingfei, who only carried a bag with him, was puzzled by the girls' travel with so many things. But Su Xiaoqiang didn't intend to answer, and glared at him unkindly, telling him that he didn't need to know so much about girls.

Facing the sunshine, the boy and the girl started what would probably be their last trip of the year.

There is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. The scenery of the water town of Jiangnan is endless. It is not the first time for Lu Mingfei to come to West Lake, but it is the first time to come alone with a girl.

As the saying goes, it is better to come at the right time than to arrive at the right time. Although West Lake is more than 100 kilometers away from southern Jiangsu, the weather in the two places is completely different. The drizzle hits the dry lotus leaves, and the mist shrouds the lake.

Winter is not over yet, and the fog in West Lake is thickest at the turn of winter and spring every year. But most people come to see the misty rain in Jiangnan for the fog and rain.

However, Lu Mingfei and his friends came at a wrong time.

"Why is this happening..." Lying in front of the wooden window, Su Xiaoqiang looked at the broken bridge outside with some frustration.

In fact, she should have understood when she saw the huge crowds of people at the high-speed railway station. Holidays are different from weekdays, especially as the New Year is approaching. The West Lake attractions are probably already crowded.

But when they really saw people squeezing into each other with umbrellas on the Broken Bridge, and there were even more people than umbrellas, it basically confirmed that they could only watch the crowds on this trip.

Fog and rain did not hinder tourists from exploring the West Lake. Even through the fog, one could see people crowded around the lake and boats coming and going on the lake. Su Xiaoqiang did not like to be in a crowd. She liked the hustle and bustle, but she did not like to be caught up in the hustle and bustle.

The air conditioner in the hotel room was running slowly, taking away the moisture in the room. The wooden furniture exuded a simple wood fragrance. The room Su Xiaoqiang booked was a standard double room.

Lu Mingfei turned his head to look at Su Xiaoqiang who was still sighing and complaining about her miscalculation. The girl had already completely ignored him and her face was flushed, looking as embarrassed as Chen Wenwen last night.

Unlike Chen Wenwen, who appears conservative but is actually not conservative, Su Xiaoqiang appears bright and generous, but is unexpectedly conservative when it comes to matters between men and women.

She originally planned to book two rooms, but after looking around, she found that there were only a handful of vacant rooms in the huge West Lake scenic area. If she had waited a little longer, she probably wouldn't have been able to book even the room near the Broken Bridge.

Su Xiaoqiang came back from the window in frustration and ate the takeaway food brought back by Lu Mingfei in a depressed mood. Since she arrived here at noon, she has been lying by the window watching the crowds outside. Until the afternoon meal time, the number of people by the West Lake still showed no sign of decreasing.

Just as Lu Mingfei was curious about why girls carry a big suitcase when traveling, she was also curious, aren’t these people tired or hungry?
At night, the rain stopped and the fog on the lake dissipated a little. The Leifeng Pagoda across the West Lake lit up, and the golden light reflected on the lake, as if this ancient pagoda, which is well-known for its folk stories, has an extension underground.

Pedestrians watching by the lake were taking photos one after another. Su Xiaoqiang, who was sitting by the window, curled his lips. They still hadn't left in the middle of the night. Are these guys planning to spend the night by the West Lake?
"Take a rest if you're tired. It's tiring to have a stern face." Lu Mingfei said in the room.

"Who has a stern face?" Su Xiaoqiang turned around unhappily, and then was surprised, "You fell asleep so soon?"

The guy who had been joking since he got here has actually occupied a bed and fallen asleep!
"What else? Counting heads like you, bored as hell?" Lu Mingfei glanced at her, pulled the quilt and turned over. "There's nothing to do anyway, so why not go to sleep? Get up early tomorrow to avoid the tourists, and you can also go to Lingyin Temple."

Su Xiaoqiang approached and kicked him unhappily: "Wake up, Lingyin Temple is still several kilometers away from here. How early do you have to get up to avoid the tourists?"

"Don't make a fuss. As long as you get up early, you won't be afraid of being crowded." Lu Mingfei said without turning his head, "You should also go to bed early. If you stay in bed tomorrow, I will leave you alone."

"You dare!" Su Xiaoqiang was angry, then paused.

Instead of watching the crowds of people at the West Lake at night, it would be better to rest early, but... She looked at Lu Mingfei, who was no longer talking and only breathing lightly, and then looked at the other bed that was still empty but already filled with her luggage.

In this situation, what kind of situation would allow her to fall asleep?
