Luo Xiaoke made a cat-like expression, hid her phone behind her back, and leaned closer with her hands behind her back.
"Yu Ning~ I forgot to give you the rest of your change~"
Her voice was soft and gentle, with a hint of sweetness.
After saying that, she stretched out her fair little hand—
A few coins lay in my palm, glistening in the setting sun like a few worthless little stars.
Gu Yuning looked at the coins, remained silent for two seconds, then took a deep breath, seemingly calming down.
"Why not just send an electronic red envelope?" She took the coins and said expressionlessly, "There's no need for you to come all this way, is there?"
"Yes, it's necessary."
Luo Xiaoke smiled and waved her phone, a pleased expression on her face.
"I just took some really interesting photos~"
Gu Yuning's eyes turned slightly cold. "Delete it."
"Hmm~"
"Luo Xiaoke".
When she called out the name, her voice was not loud, but it was simple, straightforward, and full of emotion.
Luo Xiaoke blinked, her smile still that carefree expression.
"Okay, okay, I'll delete it."
She looked down and tapped a few times on the screen, then handed the phone to Gu Yuning, "Hey, look, I deleted you~"
Gu Yuning glanced at the screen, and only looked away after confirming that the photo had disappeared.
"I'm going back."
She stuffed the coins into her bag and turned to leave.
The evening breeze blew through the neighborhood, causing the strands of hair at her temples to sway slightly. Gu Yuning's back remained straight, as if no matter what pressed down on her, she would never bend down.
Luo Xiaoke stood there, smiling as she looked at her.
Just as Gu Yuning was about to reach the corner, she suddenly spoke, "Yuning~"
Gu Yuning did not stop.
Luo Xiaoke tilted her head.
"Is the reason you've become like this because of Zhiyu?"
At that moment, Gu Yuning stopped in her tracks.
The atmosphere seemed to suddenly become quiet.
It was so quiet that the evening breeze rustled the leaves, and there was no other sound.
Gu Yuning didn't turn around. She gripped the shoulder strap of her bag tightly. "I don't understand what you mean."
Luo Xiaoke didn't speak, but her smiling expression seemed to suggest that she had said something.
"It's been so long." Gu Yuning turned to look at Luo Xiaoke. "Is it really meaningful to bring this up now?"
She paused, her voice lowering.
"Besides... it was my fault to begin with."
Luo Xiaoke's smile paused for a moment, then she smiled adorably again.
"It's not your fault, is it?"
Gu Yuning did not answer.
She simply picked up her foot and walked into the shadows behind the trees in the passageway, and this time she didn't stop.
Luo Xiaoke stood there, silently watching the direction she left in.
Her smiling eyes slowly opened.
There was only calm left in her eyes—the wind gently blew her bangs, and she reached out to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Luo Xiaoke murmured softly. She lowered her head and turned her phone back on.
I skillfully swiped into the photo album and opened "Recently Deleted".
The photo lay there quietly, and then she clicked "Restore".
After doing all this, she gently tapped her chin with her phone as if in thought, then quickly turned and left.
"Time to go home~"
……
"Hello, your 'Express Delivery Against the Wind' package has arrived!"
A little later, many packages appeared at Lin Zhou's doorstep, all for Ye Zhiyu.
The items delivered from the nearby shopping mall arrived within an hour.
Lin Zhou, leaning on his cane, arrived at the first floor.
pain.
It hurts too much.
Why don't humans just evolve into slimes that can slide along the ground? They're indestructible, they can't be killed by falls, and even if they get hit by a giant object, they can stick to the other person's face.
Lin Zhou discovered that there were quite a few packages: one large box, two small boxes, and a long rectangular box. When they were piled up at the door, they looked like some kind of mechanical life form that was about to be resurrected.
Lin Zhou paused for two seconds, then called upstairs, "Xiaoyu—your package has arrived, come down and open it!"
A few seconds later, a lazy voice came from upstairs.
"oh."
Then nothing happened.
Lin Zhou: "..."
"Come down here! If you don't want these things, I'll take them myself!"
"Coming, coming, don't rush me." Ye Zhiyu's voice floated down from the stairwell. "The injured person, please keep your emotions stable, otherwise the bones will fracture again."
"You don't sound like you care about me at all when you say that."
"How could that be? I like you so much." Ye Zhiyu poked her head out from the second floor. Her short hair was a little messy. She was wearing Lin Zhou's white short-sleeved shirt, the hem of which covered her thighs, and a pair of athletic shorts.
"You like it?" Lin Zhou was taken aback.
"Oh yes, I like it."
"Could you please stop saying that with that crooked mouth?"
She yawned and slowly descended the stairs, holding onto the handrail with one hand.
Lin Zhou looked at her. "What did you buy?"
"Hmm... a new phone, clothes, headphones, a game console, and a few personal items," Ye Zhiyu said.
"private?"
"Hmm." Ye Zhiyu walked to the box, squatted down and took a look. "Personal... some small vibrating gadgets."
"..."
"A massage pillow." Ye Zhiyu took out a small pillow.
"Oh, it's a massage pillow. I thought it was a massage pillow. That's great."
Ye Zhiyu picked up a utility knife and opened the box. Her movements were quite efficient. With a few quick snips, the cardboard box was opened, revealing several sets of clean everyday clothes and a brand-new phone box.
She picked up the phone box and glanced at it. Her eyes brightened slightly. A few days ago, without her phone, Ye Zhiyu had become like a primitive fish.
Life is like walking on thin ice; there's no way to reach the other side.
"Are you happy now?" Lin Zhou asked.
"It's alright." Ye Zhiyu unpacked the package. "At least I don't have to live like a caveman anymore."
"Primitive people wouldn't eat grass or insects under bridge arches."
"That's because I'm more adventurous; humans are omnivores." Ye Zhiyu inserted the new SIM card and activated her new phone.
"Even Bear Grylls would give me a thumbs up if he saw this."
"Bear Grylls would probably make you cook it before you eat it."
"That makes sense." Ye Zhiyu said thoughtfully, "I'll improve next time."
"Don't let this happen again." Lin Zhou was embarrassed. Did this guy want to do wilderness survival a few more times?!
Ye Zhiyu looked up at Lin Zhou and suddenly revealed her snow-white teeth.
This guy...
"Great~" Ye Zhiyu carried the boxes upstairs. "I'm leaving. Don't miss me."
"Aren't you still at my house?" Lin Zhou was speechless.
After spending some time with his sister in the living room, and getting a little late, Lin Zhou went back upstairs to take a shower and rest.
But when he opened the door, he was stunned for a moment and found a familiar figure lying on his bed, playing a Red and Blue game console.
What are you doing in my room?
"The sofa is uncomfortable to sit on." Ye Zhiyu didn't even turn her head, continuing to play with her head down. "Is your bed clean? It smells like medicine."
"Lying on someone else's bed and asking if they're clean yet..." Lin Zhou suddenly felt an urge to spank Ye Zhiyu when he saw her like that.
