Li Mu took Zhou Lanqi to the snack street where he used to go to work, and sat down on a barbecue stall.

Zhou Lanqi sat on a small stool, eating barbecue and drinking beer, looking very comfortable and not uncomfortable.

"Do you come here often?" Zhou Lanqi asked after taking a sip of beer.

"I used to come here a lot, but now my place of work is a bit far away, and I haven't been here for a while." Li Mu said.

"It seems that you are quite rich, but meat and beef are not cheap." Zhou Lanqi said.

"I don't have any special hobbies, and my salary used to be basically spent on eating, but I still often moonshine, but fortunately, my buddies often treat guests." Li Mu said with a smile.

"It's nice to have buddies." Zhou Lanqi sighed lightly.

"I have very few friends, only two, how come you have more than me, right?" Li Mu wiped the beer foam on his mouth.

"I used to think I had a lot of friends, but now I realize that I don't have any friends." Zhou Lanqi said and took another big sip of beer.

"I'm willing to be your friend." Li Mu smiled.

"You just want to treat me, how can I be considered a friend." Zhou Lanqi shook her head.

Li Mu smiled slightly: "Even if I want to treat you, it won't affect us becoming friends, right?" ”

Zhou Lanqi didn't speak, just quietly ate and drank, Li Mu chatted with her for a while, trying to find something that could arouse Zhou Lanqi's interest, but Zhou Lanqi didn't seem to be interested in anything, and after eating, she clapped her hands and stood up and said, "Thank you for your hospitality, I'm already full." Next time you want to invite someone to dinner, come back to me. ”

"Okay." Li Mu didn't care either. Smiled and paid the bill, and rode back to her rented place with Zhou Lanqi.

"Stop." When you walk down a street. Zhou Lanqi suddenly asked Li Mu to stop, Li Mu stopped the motorcycle with some doubts, but saw Zhou Lanqi running to the side of the street, picking up a puppy on the street that looked like it had just been born not long ago, I don't know if it was abandoned, or a lost puppy. Very common black and white flowers, the body proportion is not very good, the legs are short, the body is long, and the tail is ugly.

The puppy had some blood on one of his hind legs, and he limped when he walked, looking injured.

"Poor little one, why is it hurt? Don't be afraid, come back with me and I'll heal you. Zhou Lanqi hugged the puppy and returned to Li Mu's side. After getting on the motorcycle, he said, "Do you know where there is a pet hospital nearby?" ”

"I can't see you're so loving to small animals." Li Mu started the car and took Zhou Lanqi to the nearby pet hospital.

"I don't like animals, I just think this puppy is as pathetic as I am now, not so much caring for them. It's better to grieve for yourself. Zhou Lanqi said self-deprecatingly.

"Actually, as long as you sell that car, although you can't say that you have a good life, it must be much better than the average young man who goes to work. Much happier than this puppy. Li Mu said.

"I still have that car to use, I can't sell it." Zhou Lanqi said.

Arrived at the pet hospital. The doctor examined the puppy, but there was only a little trauma. It didn't hurt the bones, and it was good after a simple sterilization and bandaging.

"Hey, is this Lan Qi? I didn't expect to see you here, we haven't seen you in years. A young woman who was very well-dressed came with a dog, and when she saw Zhou Lanqi running over happily, she took Zhou Lanqi's hand and said.

"Kerr, when did you come back from the United States?" Zhou Lanqi showed a smile on her face, took Yu Keer's hand and said.

"It's only been back for a little over a month, how are you doing now? I heard something seems to have happened in your house. Yu Ke'er asked with a smile.

"Well, something happened, but it's okay, it's okay." Zhou Lanqi said with a strong smile.

"If you need anything, just ask, how to say that we are good sisters, I can introduce you to my father's company as a job, even if you are a clerk, there is no problem to support yourself." Yu Ke'er obviously knew that Zhou Lanqi's current situation was not very good, her face was full of concern, but what she said was hidden in secret.

"No, I haven't been in that kind of place." Zhou Lanqi still smiled to herself.

"It's okay, it's your boyfriend, right? What does it do? Yu Ke'er's voice changed, and she looked at Li Mu and said.

"He's working in his own family." Zhou Lanqi said first.

"It turned out to be a small opening, I don't know what company it opened?" Brother Yu asked again.

"It's just a small company, and it makes tens of millions of profits a year, and you don't know it." Zhou Lanqi said.

"Tens of millions is not a small company, Lan Qi, your life is so good, something happened at home, and you have such a good boyfriend to take care of you." Yu Ke'er glanced at Li Mu as she said as if she was inadvertent, then looked at Zhou Lanqi and continued: "By the way, the day after tomorrow, I will open a pie duì, invite us sisters to gather, I am worried that I can't contact you, you remember to come tomorrow, bring your boyfriend with you." ”

"I've been very busy lately, and I don't know if I'll be free then." Zhou Lanqi said with a bad face.

"If you don't have time, you have to come, our sisters for so many years, how can you do it if you don't come, and Qiu Ling and a few of them will come, and a few of our good sisters have to get together." After speaking, he didn't give Zhou Lanqi a chance to refuse, stroked the puppy in Zhou Lanqi's arms and said, "Lanqi, what breed of dog are you, why haven't I seen it?" It must be precious, right? ”

"It was sent by a Saudi friend, and I don't know what breed it is." Zhou Lanqi said with a smile, and then quickly said: "We still have something to do, so let's leave first, and we'll see you the day after tomorrow." ”

After speaking, he pulled Li Mu out and didn't give Yu Ke'er a chance to keep her.

"Is it really okay for you to do this?" Out of the hospital, Li Mu looked at Zhou Lanqi and smiled bitterly.

"They have been compared with me since they were young, better looking at whom, better looking at the clothes they wear, more expensive than their bags, and whose cars are limited editions. Zhou Lanqi said.

"If you lie like this, won't you be ridiculed even more if you are exposed?" Li Mu said.

"More on that later." Zhou Lanqi said with a complicated expression.

After Li Mu and Zhou Lanqi left, Yu Keer asked the doctor what breed Zhou Lanqi's dog was, and after learning that it was a hybrid stray dog, he pouted and sneered: "I'll see how long you can pretend, at the party the day after tomorrow, you have to make a fool of yourself, see how proud you will be in the future." ”

Zhou Lanqi used to be the richest in the family, in a group of sisters, she generally used the best and latest models of brand-name bags, clothes, cosmetics and so on, Yu Keer and others generally only had envy, and now that Zhou Lanqi was in trouble, she naturally wanted to hit Zhou Lanqi's arrogance.

Li Mu sent Zhou Lanqi to his home and was about to go back, but was stopped by Zhou Lanqi: "Can you help me the day after tomorrow?" ”

"How can I help you?" Li Muleng paused.

"When my boyfriend goes to a party." Zhou Lanqi looked at Li Mu and said.

"I'm not a rich second generation, and I will definitely show my stuff when the time comes." Li Mu naturally didn't want to go to such a women's party, it was not so much a party, but a show off and comparison conference.

"It's okay, you just have to do what I say." Zhou Lanqi said.

"I see that Yu Keer was already suspicious just now, and it is not so easy to deal with the past, not to mention that I will ride this BMW to take you to the party at that time, and I will be seen through by others all of a sudden." Li Mu shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Of course you can't ride this car, the day after tomorrow you drive my car to take me there, I'll take care of the rest, you just need to keep smiling." Zhou Lanqi said.

"Why bother, since you're in this situation, you can't just go to the party." Li Mu really didn't understand what women were thinking.

"This is the last time, after this time I will sell the car and find a job to start over, will you help me this time?" Zhou Lanqi bit her lower lip and looked at Li Mu and said.

"Okay, but don't blame me for being exposed." Li Mu spread his hands and said.

"If you want to go, you can do it." Zhou Lanqi laughed and pulled Li Mu upstairs.

"You don't want to repay the favor with your body, do you?" Li Mu looked at Zhou Lanqi and smiled.

"You are a big-headed ghost, I don't know how to get food for the puppy, and I don't have the money to buy dog food, you can help me get something for it to eat." Zhou Lanqi pointed to the puppy in her arms and said.

"I'm sorry for you, my eldest lady." Li Mu bought a carton of pure milk in the small supermarket next to him, brought it back upstairs, and found a plate to feed the puppy.

The puppy was already very hungry, wagging his tail, kept sticking out his little tongue to lick the milk, and soon drank a bag of pure milk, Li Mu poured another bag into it, and the puppy's belly was bulging, and it looked a lot better.

"What's the name for you? Let's call it the little tsar. Zhou Lanqi stroked the puppy's head and said.

"Where does this dog look like a tsar? Even the color and yellow have nothing to do with it. Li Mu really didn't understand Zhou Lanqi's naming logic.

"I can call it whatever I want, I like to call it the little tsar, can't you?" Zhou Lanqi pouted and said.

"Well, if you like it. In the future, I can feed a bag of pure milk every morning and a bag of pure milk at night, and this box of pure milk should be able to be fed for ten days without any problem, so I will go back first. Li Mu got up and prepared to leave.

"Thank you." When Li Mu was about to walk out of the door, Zhou Lanqi lowered his head slightly and said softly.

"Only once, not a second time." Li Mu said.

"I promise it's only this once." Zhou Lanqi made a salute and said with a smile. (To be continued......)
