The only thing they have in common is loneliness.

In fact, Lu Yu has never been a person who is afraid of being alone.

He had long been accustomed to this feeling.

However, after meeting Lin Beixing, this feeling changed.

To quote the book, it's this: "I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the light."

Lin Beixing is his light.

That's why he wanted to escape from this darkness.

"Buzz..."

"Buzzing..."

It was close to one o'clock in the morning, and Lu Yu was about to turn over the English paper in his hand.

The cell phone placed next to the table suddenly vibrated.

Lu Yu's phone hadn't vibrated for a long time. He thought it was a harassing message from Renjie or an official account, so Lu Yu inadvertently opened it.

It wasn't until he saw the black cat portrait that Lu Yu woke up from his rare sleepiness.

He sat up straight with a start.

Then clicked on the message of that avatar.

Uncle Lin: Hey hey hey, are you asleep?

Uncle Lin: A hard-working little bee classmate.

Encounter: ...Uncle Lin.

If he hadn't known that Lin Beixing's grandfather had computer experts around him, Lu Yu would have suspected that Lin Yi's WeChat account had been stolen.

This tone...why is it completely different from before.

But Lu Yu didn't think much about it.

After all, this old man's character is unpredictable.

Of course, it is also possible that Mr. Lin's cell phone was taken away by a grandmother, and the person who sent the message to Lu Yu may have been sent by the grandmother on his behalf.

Uncle Lin: I haven't slept yet. Just in time, come downstairs. I have something for you.

Yu: Now?

Lu Yu didn't know what the "thing" Mr. Lin was talking about was.

But it is undeniable that he has a little bit of expectation now.

Yu: My home is in the old town above Jiangshui No. [-] Middle School.

Lu Yu sent the message and soon opened the map to send his location.

Before I could click send the positioning, a picture was sent from Mr. Lin.

This picture made Lu Yu's scalp tingle.

The content of the picture was downstairs in his house. The entire dark old building was lit up only in one room, Lu Yu.

The white short-sleeved shirt hanging outside the window was the one that Lu Yu had just washed this afternoon.

As Lu Yu expected, when he opened the window, he saw the red sports car parked in the street.

Outside the car, Mr. Lin was wearing a slightly slutty black striped suit and sunglasses for the evening. His legs were lazily folded together and he leaned against the car door.

Next to him, there was a woman with a fierce figure. The woman wore the same sunglasses as him and a sun hat on her head.

This outfit... I'm afraid I just came back from a beach vacation where I needed to get rid of jet lag.

Seeing Lu Yu in front of the window, Mr. Lin raised his hand to say hello to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu couldn't help but sigh.

This Mr. Lin... How come I can even find him wherever he lives?

He didn't remember telling Mr. Lin his address!

Lu Yu put on his slippers and kicked downstairs.

"Hello, Uncle Lin..."

"Here, I have something for you."

Lin Yi directly interrupted the junior's greetings.

He raised his chin towards Lu Yu, and Lu Yu looked in that direction.

Next to the sports car, there is a large gift box.

The box is square, with a length, width and height of about 70 centimeters.

This volume...

It's probably normal even if there's a person hiding inside.

Lu Yu felt a sense of expectation and joy in his heart.

However, before he could express his inner joy on his face, he was ruthlessly interrupted by Lin Yi's words.

"Just don't look at Lin Beixing hiding inside. Do you think I will package up my cute little granddaughter and give it to you?"

The corners of Lu Yu's mouth that had not yet started to smile suddenly froze.

"..."

"They are all men, and I have grown up as a teenager. How can I still not guess what you are thinking?"

Lin Yi patted Lu Yu's shoulder with a half-smile.

"I have delivered the things for my little granddaughter. You can carry them up yourself while I leave."

"Uncle Lin..."

When Lin Yi saw the truth, he turned around and got into the car. Lu Yu quickly stopped him.

Lin Yi looked back at him.

Lu Yu raised his eyes and asked, "Is Lin Beixing doing well over there...?"

Lin Yi smiled faintly and waved his hand: "Just relax. Although Lin Ling is strict with Lin Beixing, she loves her daughter as much as anyone else."

When he said this, Lin Yi paused again.

He suddenly reacted to one thing.

"Wait a minute... Lin Ling didn't even give you a chance to talk on the phone??"

Lu Yu nodded.

"Lin Beixing's mobile phone was taken away."

"..." Lin Yi rubbed his forehead.

"Forget it, let's talk about this later."

"Lin Ling hates you now, so you have to prove yourself to her, understand?"

"I understand." Lu Yu nodded firmly.

Lin Yi glanced at him gently: "Then since you have made up your mind, don't make any complaints, no matter what the result is. Only by continuing on will you not regret it."

"Let's go, take the gift back and open it yourself. It's not something expensive, so you can accept it with confidence."

As soon as Mr. Lin finished speaking, he was already sitting in the driver's seat.

The sports car drove out of this quiet alley at a turtle's speed. After reaching the street, it stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

336 Meet and greet

It took Lu Yu a lot of effort to get the gift box upstairs.

It is no exaggeration to say that this weight is not only [-] kilograms, but also [-] kilograms.

Lu Yu also weighed it specially, and it was probably about the same weight as Lin Beixing.

But such speculation did not make him secretly excited.

After all, Lin Yi said it himself and did not package Lin Beixing for him at all.

Lu Yu shook his head and stopped engaging in unrealistic daydreaming.

Opening the door, even Coal Ball was startled by the sudden appearance of this huge thing in the house.

The little black cat hid under the bed for a while, and while Lu Yu was looking for scissors, he crawled over timidly and sniffed the box with his nose.

As if smelling a familiar smell, Briquettes bowed his body and rubbed it against the box.

Lu Yu found scissors and cut the blue ribbon on the outside of the gift box.

Men don't have any romantic thoughts when opening gifts. They never thought of untying the bow carefully. Anyway, they just need to violently open it and that's it.

Pull off the ribbon and lift the lid of the white gift box.

Lu Yu was full of expectations for a moment.

Even if he knew for sure that it wasn't Lin Beixing here.

But it is a gift after all, and no one will open a gift without looking forward to it.

Put the lid down gently.

Lu Yu looked at the study gift package inside, with an unexpectedly calm expression on his face.

Really, a great learning gift package.

From the study materials and tutoring materials for the first to the third year of high school, to the "five-year college entrance examination and three-year simulation" that will never be absent, when Lu Yu took out these books one by one, the expression on his face didn't know whether he should or not. Laughed.

In the past, Lu Yu would have dismissed such things. The value they brought to him was the recycling price at the scrap recycling bin.

But it is different now.

Lu Yu actually needs these things.

The restriction on living expenses left Lu Yu with very little budget to spend on his studies, and he just didn't want to ask his mother for money.

Before this, Lu Yu would use his mobile phone to search online when he wanted to find a question to do.

But the screen of a mobile phone is only so big, which makes it difficult to read. The words on it are still blurry, and it takes a lot of time to complete a set of test papers.

Therefore, the big gift package sent by Mr. Lin tonight is undoubtedly a timely help for Lu Yu.

He picked up his phone and sent two messages to Mr. Lin to thank him.

Yu: I opened the gift. Thank you, Uncle Lin. I like it very much.

Lin Yi's message came back instantly, and he must have been looking at his phone.

Uncle Lin: There are not many students these days who want to say thank you after receiving a study gift package.

Uncle Lin: Study hard. Lin Beixing entrusted me with sending these things. Don’t let me down my little granddaughter’s sincerity.

Yu: I will definitely work hard, Uncle Lin.

Uncle Lin: Don’t call me uncle. I am your grandfather. Why should you call me uncle? If you want to call me uncle, you should call me grandpa.

Lu Yu couldn't help but smile when he saw this.

Although face to face, Mr. Lin's temperament will always bring invisible pressure to Lu Yu.

But as long as we communicate through text, that kind of pressure and barriers will naturally disappear.

There are very few elders who can communicate with Lu Yu without any barriers, and Mr. Lin is the only one.

If it weren't for the age and seniority gap, Lu Yu felt that he and Mr. Lin might be able to become friends.

He sent another row of words.

Yu: Uncle Lin is so young, so it’s appropriate for me to call you uncle.

Uncle Lin: You have such a sweet mouth, no wonder it has fascinated my lovely granddaughter.

Yu: This has nothing to do with whether you are sweet or not. These are the communication skills you learn after becoming a girl, Uncle Lin.
