The game's heroine has come true? The aloof school beauty is in tears.

Lu Yuan finally got on his electric scooter as he wished.

During this period, he made several attempts to rebuild a friendly, warm, and happy atmosphere for chatting with Shang Qingya.

Please turn on your microphone to communicate.

"Hey, hey, hey, no microphone?"

"Did you not turn on your teammates' microphones?"

No matter what Lu Yuan said, Shang Qingya did not react.

The electric vehicle went straight to the Chengdong Station.

Because tonight's banquet was originally intended to welcome guests.

Following the old station manager's instructions, all the veteran riders returned that night.

Some went to other stations, some changed jobs, and some never came back at all.

It's normal that he didn't come back. People are just strangers who meet by chance, and it's already a matter of fate that we have a chance to meet.

It's perfectly normal for them to come back. Meeting old friends is a rare and precious thing, and being able to reunite is an incredible stroke of luck.

"Xiao Lu, I told you your luck lies in delivering food."

"If you don't leave and keep working here, you might actually be driving a Maybach."

When they met again, their conversations were mostly lighthearted and joking.

No one was so tactless as to ask why Lu Yuan, who had originally gone back to his hometown, had returned.

Because there's no need to even ask: if there were a better future ahead of him, would he come back to delivering food?

But no one looked down on Lu Yuan because of this. We're all from the bottom of society, so who would look down on whom?

"If you come back, you'll have food to eat. If something like yesterday happens again, just let everyone know."

"That's right. Although none of us have much money, at least Beihai can provide a safety net for us."

He arrived late because he had saved someone on the way.

Everyone's meals are almost ready, and it's getting hot as summer approaches.

They simply set up a few tables at the entrance of the station.

Of course, there were plenty of jokes and teasing directed at Shang Qingya during this time.

"To be honest, this young couple is really inseparable. They've been together for so long and they're still inseparable every day."

"We have a good relationship, it's none of your business."

Shang Qingya jokingly retorted, then walked through the front door and went straight to the kitchen.

Aunt Liu was still busy in the kitchen. Upon seeing Shang Qingya, she exclaimed with delight:

"Oh, Xiao Shang is back too! It's not holiday time yet, is it?"

"No, the holiday isn't until another month later."

"Then why did you come back with him? Were you worried about him?"

"Seeing him off will prevent him from flirting with other women."

Shang Qingya rubbed her nose and subconsciously took the vegetables from Aunt Liu's hand, preparing to take them out.

But Aunt Liu was taken aback for a moment when she heard Shang Qingya's words, and then she laughed:

"Xiao Shang is a young woman now."

"It's only been a year, Aunt Liu."

"A year ago, when I asked you if you were dating Lu Yuan, you were so shy you didn't dare to answer," Aunt Liu said meaningfully. "Now you know to keep an eye on men, huh?"

"I was shy back then."

When are you planning to get married?

"We'll get married once we've saved enough money for a house!"

Shang Qingya said with a smile.

Aunt Liu also gave her a thumbs up:

"I even told your Uncle Liu back then that Xiao Shang is pretty, and once she goes to university and sees the world, she'll definitely leave Xiao Lu behind."

"Aunt Liu, he dumped me? If I don't keep an eye on him for a day, he'll probably run off with someone else."

"Okay, okay, as long as you're happy."

Aunt Liu, beaming with joy, pushed Shang Qingya out.

He gestured that he was done with everything and told her to go out and eat first.

Shang Qingya went outside and found that Lu Yuan was staring at her from the kitchen doorway.

Why are you looking at me like that?

"Wow, things are different now."

Lu Yuan looked Shang Qingya up and down, and he did sense that something was different about her.

When other riders spoke to Shang Qingya at the station before, she didn't dare to answer at all.

I didn't feel safe just hiding behind Lu Yuan; I even had to hold onto his clothes.

Now...

Lu Yuan shared the same view as Aunt Liu: Shang Qingya had grown up.

Don't try to get too close.

"Aren't you supposed to be watching me?"

"I can't keep an eye on you." Shang Qingya curled her lip and walked straight past Lu Yuan. "You don't even value your own life, so I can't protect you either."

"Yo."

Lu Yuan also smiled.

This little gadget is quite interesting.

He followed them out and sat at the table, opened a can of Coke, and toasted with everyone.

Lu Yuan doesn't like drinking alcohol, so toasting with a Coke is just a social etiquette.

His reason was the same as always: "You can't ride a bike after drinking."

"Let your wife ride it."

A group of riders started making a fuss.

Shang Qingya said calmly:

"His wife can't ride a bike."

"Oh dear, his wife doesn't know how~"

The word "wife" was emphasized, and Shang Qingya just smiled without blushing or panting.

She secretly grabbed the hem of Lu Yuan's clothes from behind.

"I've grown up, but not completely."

Lu Yuan whispered in her ear.

Shang Qingya rolled her eyes at him and pinched his lower back with the hand that was gripping the hem of her clothes.

...

Please turn on your microphone to communicate.

"Hey, hey, hey, no microphone?"

"Did you not turn on your teammates' microphones?"

This conversation continued on the way back.

But Shang Qingya remained silent.

"I'm really not going to die, what are you afraid of?"

"Everyone dies."

"So what if I die? My life is worthless anyway. If I were afraid of dying, I wouldn't be alive."

Lu Yuan has always been like this; he does whatever he wants.

He'll do whatever makes him feel good.

Life is just a game.

"Pah! Pah! Pah!"

Shang Qingya made the most dangerous cycling move of her life—sudden braking.

She parked the car under a streetlamp, pointed to the distance, and told him he had to spit on the road.

"Pah, pah, pah."

Lu Yuan did as instructed, thinking he had broken the ice.

I never expected it would trigger my crying.

Shang Qingya squatted down by the roadside and started crying.
