Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

"Uh...no."

"no?"

"Well, because it was bought as a gift for you. Things in the supermarkets over there are very expensive... Zixiao and Xinye said that we should just look at it and suggest buying it online if we want to buy it. But that cushion is the only one we feel we can't wait. We won't have time to buy it online."

"Why...why? I'm happy you want to give me a gift...but also..."

"Are you in such a hurry? It's not like I can't wait to order online."

"No, that won't do." Little Lychee hugged Yu Zhe's arm tightly, her ample chest making Yu Zhe feel the force rebound again. "We all agreed on this, to do everything we can to help Brother Yu Zhe's back recover as soon as possible. A backrest, well, it should be more or less helpful?"

"Thank you so much!!"

Okay, another back injury.

My back injury has suddenly made me a priority for protection?!

Although... it seems like he's usually pretty much the same...?

indeed.

33. Scenery

"Um... Little Lychee, are you sure there are still buses running at this bus stop?"

"Hmm! I remember, in Kromer... there should still be the evening city bus running at this time...! Probably?"

perhaps?!

Your lack of confidence is making me anxious too!

Yu Zhe looked left and right, but there wasn't a single person waiting at the bus stop! Are you sure the buses are still running?!

It's almost 8 PM now.

In Fenghai City, the last bus would have already passed by this time.

Well... Yu Zhe, the eldest young master of the Su family, has almost never ridden a bus, or rather, he has never had the opportunity to.

But it wasn't entirely without its risks. When he was a child, he often sneaked out of the mansion to play. Once he had ridden the bus once, he was very familiar with the procedures for taking public transportation.

There was no one waiting for the train at the platform, which was obviously a bad sign!

It was Xiaolizhi who insisted that she remembered there were still buses running at this time, so Yuzhe brought her here.

"Little Lychee...think it through. If a car comes, great. But if not...think about how to save your head."

"Hey...! There will be a car! I think it's just because there's no one around at this time... There will be a car... Ah! It's a car!"

"Ok?"

There really is one?

A double-decker bus with purple decorative lights was driving this way along the wide street.

The scrolling English display on the roof of the vehicle indicates that it is a city sightseeing bus for nighttime tours.

It's true... Yu Zhe has been living in Fenghai City for so long, he's really ignorant.

Is this how tourist cities are? Public transportation can cover the entire city around the clock.

In short, Little Lychee managed to save her head.

Having prepared change beforehand, Yu Zhe deliberately put four people's fare into the collection box after getting on the bus.

Little Lychee was quite thrifty and hardworking at this time!

"Hey, Brother Yuzhe! We bet too much! We bet too much! We're going to lose a fortune!"

"You're losing money my ass! Just sit down, and look behind you!"

"Huh?"

Little Lychee turned around to look, following Yu Zhe's suggestion.

?

In the two empty seats at the very back of the vehicle...

When did Lu Ling and Lu Yao appear?!

Dressed in casual clothes, the two sisters, who were almost indistinguishable except for their hairstyles, were staring intently at themselves and their brother Yuzhe.

"rain...!"

"Don't make a fuss, it will cause trouble for other passengers, won't it?" Yu Zhe took Xiao Lizhi's hand and reminded her softly. He then gestured for Xiao Lizhi to sit on the window side of the empty seats a little ahead of him.

Then Yu Zhe sat down next to her and nodded to Lu Ling and Lu Yao.

The two sisters immediately responded by raising one hand above their heads in unison.

Lu Yao remained calm, but Lu Ling's gesture seemed to urge her on, implying...

Young master, don't worry about us! Focus on your date!

So... this doesn't really count as a date.

“They’ll definitely come along to protect her.” Yu Zhe moved closer to Xiao Lizhi, “Besides, the people of Scandinavia…aren’t they supposed to be quite fierce? If Lu Ling and Lu Yao don’t come along, Zi Xiao and the others won’t feel at ease.”

"That's true...why don't we go sit with them? Or have them come over? Why are we so far apart..."

"Well... cough, you're too young to understand."

"?!"

Brother Yuzhe, you're less than a year older than me! I'm not a child, Sister Xiaomeng is! No, Sister Xiaomeng isn't either!

In her mind, Little Lychee apologized to the kind-hearted, smiling Little Meng who had unconsciously appeared before her.

Yu Zhe added, "Anyway, things are a bit complicated here... but if nothing unexpected happens, we might be able to sit together soon."

"?"

Little Lychee felt like she couldn't understand a single word!

Oh no, I'm still too young. I need to learn more, Little Lychee!

While cheering herself up, Xiao Lizhi also sensibly turned around and waved to Lu Ling and Lu Yao before saying nothing more.

Brother Yuzhe said the situation is more complicated, so there must be something complicated about it.

The bus doors closed on both sides, and the driver stepped on the gas, causing the vehicle to slowly start moving again.

Yu Zhe said this didn't count as a date... but Xiao Lizhi was in a particularly good mood today.

Yu Zhe had just taken her hand, intending only to lead her to this seat, but now that they were seated, Xiao Lizhi still showed no intention of letting go of Yu Zhe's hand.

Their fingers were intertwined, and Yu Zhe's hand was occasionally pulled back and forth by Xiao Lizhi's hand, showing a childlike energy that Yu Zhe couldn't help but admire.

What a childish kid~

Yes, full of energy, that's a good thing, let's shake it then.

After starting the vehicle, Yu Zhe focused his attention on the interior.

Although the carriage, which was not small in size, was a bit noisy, it was not crowded at all.

Klomer is indeed a tourist city, but the city's population base is small to begin with, and given the low tourist activity at this time of year, this situation is normal.

L

There must be only one person sitting in every other row.

The majority of the people were tourists, all pointing out the window and occasionally exclaiming in admiration at the city's night view.

Yu Zhe probably didn't know... that since he boarded the train, the passengers in the carriage were marveling at more than just the city's night view.

Su Yuzhe is an existence that transcends all forms of beauty, no matter where you are on Earth.

In other words, they have an overwhelming presence.

Little Lychee's focus, however, was on what was outside the car window.

Her fingers rested lightly on the windowsill, and a stream of memories flashed in her azure eyes.

"Wow... Brother Yuzhe, look at that TV station over there, it looked just like that when I was a kid."

"A TV station... Oh, this kind of infrastructure is usually difficult to modify. By the way, do you even remember these roads?"

"Hmm... I can't remember very well, hehe... I can probably only remember some TV stations and stuff..."

"After all, you were still young back then, uh, no..."

Yu Zhe smiled wryly, then suddenly noticed something was off: "Didn't you just say you wanted to take a bus around the city to relive your childhood memories? You don't remember anything, what are you going to do?"

"I...I just remembered and forgot!"

"Oh? So you can forget something like that at the last minute~ Tell me, what's your little scheme for suddenly wanting to take the city bus~"

"me..."

"Uh-huh?"

Yu Zhe pressed closer and closer, his face getting closer and closer to Xiao Lizhi's, his eyes full of curiosity.

"Ahhh, Brother Yuzhe, that's enough... I'll tell you, okay?"

"That's more like it... hiss...!"

"Feel sorry!"

You bastard...

Don't let its small size fool you; when it gets excited, it can unleash quite a bit of power.

She was holding hands with Yu Zhe when her left hand suddenly tightened its grip, causing Yu Zhe's hand to feel a sharp pain!

You didn't happen to practice Iron Head Kung Fu while also learning Iron Palm, did you?! You've mastered all the ultimate martial arts techniques.

However, her delicate little hands don't look like the kind of hands that can practice Iron Palm.

Little Lychee took Yu Zhe's hands in her hands, held them up to her face, and blew on them.

It was as if she thought that this would make all the pain disappear.

How could this kind of method possibly work...?

Hey, you know what, it really doesn't hurt that much anymore.
