Lincheng, Chinese restaurant.

At the dinner table, He Chang touched the pendant around his neck through his clothes, "Xia Yan, this Jade Butterfly Heart is a birthday gift you gave me in advance, aren't you in Lincheng in the next time?"

"Well, I'm going to go for a walk and visit the tourist attractions in the country. ”

Xia Yan picked up a piece of roasted potato, put it in his bowl, and smiled at He Chang.

"That's fine, you just quit your job, you must be in a bad mood, and it's a very good choice to go out for a walk. ”

He Chang nodded, and also showed a smile.

Chu Xinran glanced at Xia Yan, quietly pulled the sleeve of Zhou Ming, who was sitting beside him, and whispered, "Next, you won't be traveling with Xia Yan, right?"

Zhou Ming was eating a piece of pork ribs, glanced at Chu Xinran, and said, "I may have to stay in Lincheng for a few days." ”

Hearing Zhou Ming say this, Chu Xinran suddenly felt a little happy in her heart, she took a bite of rice, and carefully peeked at Zhou Ming's good-looking face with her spare eyes.

"By the way, the next holiday is the eleventh holiday. ”

He Chang looked at his good girlfriend, his eyes lit up, and said, "Why don't you wait for me in Lincheng for a few days, and when I have a holiday, let's go on a trip together, what do you think?"

Xia Yan glanced at Zhou Ming, smiled with his eyebrows, and said, "Okay." ”

"Shen Yue, Xinran, are you going to work or school now, do you have any plans for the holidays?"

He Chang saw that Shen Yue and Chu Xinran were sitting together with a tacit understanding, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"I am currently unemployed. ”

Zhou Ming ate the dish and said lightly.

"Like her, I'm a vagrant. ”

Chu Xinran opened his eyes wide and picked out the chopsticks in his hand.

He Chang looked at Zhou Ming with an indifferent face and Chu Xinran with a smug face in surprise, and couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, the two of them looked the same age, they didn't look like young women in their twenties, at this time, shouldn't it be the stage to enjoy campus life and study hard?

Xia Yan saw He Chang's expression, coughed, and explained to her, "Xiao Chang, they are a little special. ”

"Special?"

He Chang was even more curious, could it be that these two friends of Xia Yan had any special origins?

Of course, she soon realized that something was wrong and restrained her desire to explore, after all, if people don't want to say it, it will be a little rude for her to hit it here.

Zhou Ming said at this time: "It's nothing, I don't have a job now, but I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and she is an old man." ”

He Chang blinked, revealing a look of understanding, "Well, I probably understand." ”

After saying that, she didn't dwell on the topic anymore, and began to eat a piece of chicken breast on her plate with a calm demeanor.

"Shen Yue, who do you say gnaws at the old!"

Chu Xinran heard Zhou Ming say that he was a gnawing old clan, and the whole person was like a kitten that had been stepped on by its tail, and it was fried!

Zhou Ming pinched Chu Xinran's little face and said, "I forgot to add, now you have most likely evolved into a 'little overlord' who eats and drinks for nothing, gnawing on the old and smelling shameless." ”

"What do you say!"

Chu Xinran looked at Zhou Ming's calm, expressionless and beautiful face, and really wanted to pounce on it and leave two bright red marks on it.

This damn guy is so infuriating!

Chu glared at Zhou Ming happily, but she was helpless against him, because she knew that what Zhou Ming was talking about was her current situation.

Her current financial resources come from her mother Liu Yan, and if she didn't have the living expenses that Liu Yan gave her, she didn't know what kind of situation she would fall into.

Chu Xinran now lives with Zhou Ming, but he doesn't have to worry about food and accommodation. But she also understands that this kind of life can never last long, Zhou Ming and she are not people of the same world at all, if Zhou Ming leaves Lincheng one day, where should she go?

Thinking of this, Chu Xinran's eyes dimmed a lot for a while.

The corners of Zhou Ming's mouth are slightly hooked, it seems that this chick has realized her own problems, and next, it depends on whether she has the consciousness to face these problems.

Chu Xinran is eighteen years old this year, and as an adult, she must have her own self-consciousness, whether to degenerate and act like before, or to start a new life, all of this is up to her.

"I'm sorry, I'm full, thank you for having a treat today, Sister Chang. ”

Chu stood up happily, thanked He Chang, and walked out of the restaurant with a disappointed face.

"Huh? ”

He Chang saw Chu Xinran's lonely back and wanted to stop her.

"Let her be alone for a while, Xiao Chang. ”

Xia Yan looked at Shen Yue, who was immersed in eating, and said to He Chang.

"What's going on?"

He Chang was a little puzzled, originally she thought that Shen Yue was just joking with Chu Xinran, but she didn't expect Chu Xinran to have such a big reaction.

From the first time she saw Chu Xinran, she understood that this was a lively and cheerful girl, and a character like Chu Xinran was generally very likable, straightforward and unpretentious.

"It's not easy to talk about this matter, it's Xinran's personal matter, let her think about it for herself. ”

Xia Yan touched the chopsticks in his hand and explained to He Chang.

After getting along with Chu Xinran for a week, Xia Yan also had a more comprehensive understanding of Chu Xinran.

Two girls with generous personalities stay together, and they can always become good friends.

Chu Xinran and Xia Yan are no exception, although Chu Xinran was wary of Xia Yan at first, but after getting along, she realized that Xia Yan is a big sister who is very talkative.

And just like that, the two began to talk openly.

Through Chu Xinran's words, Xia Yan understood that Chu Xinran was a lonely and fragile girl at heart, because her father gambled and her mother was away from home all year round, resulting in her lack of family affection and love.

Chu Xinran came out to mix in the society completely because of family reasons, in such a thin family environment, Chu Xinran naturally rebelled and wanted to win a little attention.

It's a pity that her rebellion failed to win the attention of her parents in the end, and she had to fall step by step, began to form gangs in society, and lived in a dark and depressed world every day.

Shen Yue's words that started to joke just now pierced the deepest part of Chu Xinran's heart and the hidden wound that he didn't want to mention the most. Even if Chu Xinran has become much more self-disciplined now, and the whole person is no longer as decadent as before, she still has to face and solve the problems of herself and her family.

Xia Yan looked at Shen Yue who was sitting opposite her, she seemed to be very vicious, but she was actually helping Chu Xinran and wanted to help her get out of the current difficult predicament.

"Hmm"

He Chang nodded, she also understood that some people hide their hearts deeply. Pretending to be smiling in front of people, but behind the scenes, his face is full of sadness.

Perhaps, Chu Xinran is such a person.

He Chang's eyes rolled, and he secretly picked up his mobile phone and sent a message to Xia Yan.

"I know that Shen Yue is a very special person, and it's hard to say here, but after you go back, you must tell me the specific situation. ”

Xia Yan saw that the mobile phone she put aside suddenly lit up, she picked it up and glanced at the message on it, clicked on it a few times with her finger, and showed a smile to He Chang.

She replied to He Chang on her mobile phone: "Don't worry, I'll find a time to tell you." ”

He Chang nodded and picked up the chopsticks with satisfaction.

At this moment, the mobile phone in Zhou Ming's pocket suddenly vibrate, he picked up the phone and glanced at it, his brows furrowed slightly.

His mobile phone displayed a WeChat message from Chu Xinran: "Help!"

Zhou Ming's divine consciousness suddenly swept out, and the scenes on the streets and roads outside suddenly appeared in his mind.

Quickly passing through many pedestrians and vehicles, Zhou Ming found Chu Xinran's figure in a white Wuling van.

At this time, she was covered with a black cloth bag, and the mobile phone in her hand just stayed in the chat interface of sending a message to Zhou Ming.

Zhou Ming stood up and said to Xia Yan and He Chang: "I'm sorry, I have something to do, I have to go first." ”

Saying that, he didn't care what Xia Yan and He Chang's reaction was, a few arrows just stepped out of the door, and the guests in the restaurant only felt a gust of wind blowing, and the girl with long hair and waist had already appeared outside the door of the restaurant.

"Xia Yan, is something wrong?"

He Chang was not in the mood to eat now, and couldn't help but ask Xia Yan, who was full of worry.

"I don't know. ”

Although Xia Yan was worried, she didn't know what Shen Yue had just seen and would be so anxious.

"Why don't we go check it out. ”

He Chang put down the chopsticks in his hand and said to Xia Yan.

"Okay, let's go. ”

Xia Yan picked up the bag on the side, and after He Chang checked out, he left the restaurant together.

"Big brother, you said that Chu Tiankuo is a waste, how can there be such a daughter of a water spirit?"

In a white Wuling van, a small young man sitting in the passenger seat stared in the rearview mirror and asked the vicious-looking Huang Mao in the driver's seat.

Huang Mao in the driver's seat showed a sneer, "Chu Tiankuo married a beautiful wife, otherwise how could he give birth to such a superb product." ”

"Tsk, this gambler is really blessed. ”

The little man looked at Chu Xinran's bumpy figure through the rearview mirror, and couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart, Made, if only I could make a shot now!

"You can bear it now, Chu Tiankuo's daughter is the person designated by the boss, if you don't bring him back completely, she will definitely be drawn!"

Huang Mao observed the uncontrollable ** on this little man's face, and couldn't help scolding.

"I know ......"

Before the little man could speak, a gust of cold wind poured into the car. The van's sliding door was opened at some point, and the wind outside kept blowing in through the one-man door.

"Bang!"

The door snapped and closed automatically.
