On the shores of Zhilan Lake in Lychee Bay, a bicycle swayed past the lake with willows hanging low and the spring breeze blowing, riding a girl with waist-length pigtails, followed by a tall boy in a black school uniform.

"Yurong, ride slowly, look ahead, and the faucet is steady."

"I know, young master."

This girl named Yurong, fourteen or fifteen years old, with red lips and white teeth, two dark eyes glowing with aura, a thick black and shiny twist braided hanging down her waist, the breeze on her face, blowing the front bangs apart, revealing a full forehead, the tip of the nose sweated slightly, the front chest was slightly raised, and the girl's breath spread with the breeze.

The young man who followed closely behind him was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with clear eyebrows, fair complexion, black thick hair, two sword eyebrows, a pair of pure eyes that were unforgettable, a slightly upturned mouth under the tall nose was slightly sexy, and there was a faint fluff on the lips, but the tall man looked a little thin.

The more Yu Rong rode harder, the more energetic she became, and her speed began to increase. The bike rolls forward in an "S" shape.

A female student with short ear-length hair and an aqua blue school uniform walked up to her, holding three or four books in her hand.

"Hey, hey, get out of the way, get out of the way." Yurong's car slammed into the schoolgirl crookedly. Seeing this, the young man behind him hurriedly ran a few steps and pushed the female student away. Yu Rong fell and gnawed on the mud.

"Are you alright?" The boy picked up the schoolgirl's book on the ground, patted the dust on the book, and handed it back to the schoolgirl.

"I'm fine, thank you!" The schoolgirl shyly took the book and replied softly.

The boy glanced at the schoolgirl, who was about the same age as himself, she was tall, with two crescent eyebrows on her fair melon seed face, a pair of clear eyes with a smile, and her rosy lips slightly opened. The short ear-length hair exudes the scent of jasmine, the slender neck is particularly fair against the backdrop of the aqua blue school uniform, and the slender willow waist looks particularly well-proportioned.

"I've got something! Master! Yu Rong sat on the ground and shouted aggrievedly: "Don't come and help me, isn't it important that I don't have those two broken books?" ”

"Okay, I'll help you. Didn't you be told to ride slower, you love to be able to ride. ”

At this moment, another girl with short ears and short hair ran over.

"Shuxian, are you okay, I just saw a daredevil's bicycle crashing into you, and it scared me to death."

"Who do you say is a daredevil?" Yurong stood up from the ground, patted the dirt on her pants, and stepped forward unconvinced to find the girl to reason.

"Wow, you almost injured someone, and you're so fierce, it's really unreasonable."

"Who is unreasonable? I didn't bump into her again. She didn't have anything to do, and if you look at me again, my sleeves are broken. Yurong raised her hand to show the girl her sleeve.

The young man hurriedly grabbed Yu Rong: "Yu Rong, don't make trouble, go home and make a new one for you." ”

He turned around and was about to explain to the girl, when he looked at it, he was dumbfounded, the two girls in front of him looked exactly the same, and it was difficult to tell who was who.

"You two are twins?"

The girl with the book smiled shyly: "Yes." ”

"Then let me guess who is the sister and who is the sister. I guess the gentle and lovely one must be the sister, and the unforgiving one must be the younger sister. ”

"Who cares about it? It's clear that you're at fault first. The girl who came back raised her chin and looked like she wouldn't give up.

The girl holding the book hurriedly pulled the girl next to her: "My name is Xu Shuxian, and she is my sister Xu Shuyan." ”

"What vinegar, salt. Your family has a condiment shop. Yu Rong pursed her mouth and said angrily.

When Xu Shuyan heard this, she was about to refute, but was pulled by Xu Shuxian, still smiling and groaning.

The young man scratched his head: "I'm really mistaken, I always think that the big ones are more humble, and the small ones are more arrogant." ”

"Who do you say is arrogant?" When Xu Shuyan heard this, she became angry again.

"It's just that my sister is not like my sister, and my sister is not like my sister. My sister is much more sensible than my sister. ”

"You are the young master, not like the young master, and the maid is not like the maid, but like a pair of flirtatious little enemies."

Yurong was anxious when she heard this, and stretched out her hand to hit Xu Shuyan, but the young man quickly stopped.

"Yurong, you are becoming more and more disagreeable, what about this matter, it was originally your fault first, you almost knocked down the second miss of the Xu family, people said a few words to you, you can't stand it, do you still want to beat people? You're still not a girl trained by our Lu family? Apologize to Miss Xu Jiaer. Otherwise, you will not be allowed to go out for one month. ”

Seeing that the young master was serious, Yu Rong hurriedly lowered her head and said softly to Xu Shuxian: "I'm sorry, I was wrong, please forgive the second miss of the Xu family." ”

"It's okay, don't talk about her." Xu Shuxian pulled Yurong's hand: "Ah, your clothes are torn so big, otherwise, go to my house and change one, my house is not far from here." ”

"No, I'll go home and make it up for myself. Thank you, Miss Xu Jiaer. ”

"That's right." The young man turned to the Xu sisters: "Let me introduce myself, my name is Lu Yulin, and I am studying at St. Paul's Church School. ”

"We are both students at Peiwen Girls' School."

"Peiwen Girls' School? It's not far from our school, so we can come and go as often as we go in the future. ”

"Yes." Xu Shuxian responded with a smile.

"Young master, it's not too early, let's go home."

"Okay, you go and lift the bike up."

"We're going to the school library to return the books. Then we took our leave. ”

"Okay, goodbye."

Yurong lifted the bicycle up and found that the chain of the bicycle had fallen off.

"Young master, the bicycle broke and the chain broke."

Lu Yulin hurriedly ran over to take a look, and the bicycle really fell off the chain.

Lu Yulin checked: "It's not a big problem, I'll go home and repair it, I should still be able to ride." He raised his head and wanted to say something, but suddenly found that there was blood stains on Yurong's pants, and his expression suddenly became nervous.

"Yurong, you didn't fall and get hurt, why is there blood on your pants?"

"Where? I don't feel any pain? ”

"On the ass, your butt is broken?"

Yu Rong molded the back with her hand, and sure enough, there were blood stains, and she cried in fright.

The sisters of the Xu family heard Yurong's cry and hurriedly ran back.

"What's wrong?" Sook-yeon asked with concern.

"Yurong broke her butt and bled a lot." Lu Yulin answered for Yurong with a nervous expression.

"Yurong, where do you hurt?" Shuxian asked with concern.

"I don't know, my stomach hurts a little."

"Ah, you see, there's blood on the mat too." As if he had discovered a new continent, Lu Yulin pointed to the blood stains on the car mat: "This is strange, it stands to reason that you ride first and fall behind, even if you fall and are injured, it is impossible to leave blood stains on the car mat." ”

"What's so strange about that." Xu Shuyan interrupted Lu Yulin's reasoning and analysis, and pulled Lu Yulin into the distance: "You take off your coat." ”

"What? You're pulling me over? Lu Yulin was very puzzled.

"If you take it off, you can take it off. Hurry up. ”

Lu Yulin took off his black coat inexplicably. Wear only a white stand-up collar shirt. The spring cold was steep, and a gust of wind blew, and Lu Yulin couldn't help sneezing.

"You go back alone, let's take Yurong back to my house first, help her deal with it before going back."

"Do you want my help?"

"Don't make a mess. Let's go back. ”

After Xu Shuyan finished speaking, she took Lu Yulin's coat and ran to Yurong.

"Put on your clothes, go, and go to my house to get clean." Xu Shuxian put Lu Yulin's coat on Yurong.

"Second Miss Xu, do I have some incurable disease, why did I suddenly bleed so much?"

"It's okay, it's like that, it's like that. It's probably your first time, don't be nervous, I'll teach you. ”

Lu Yulin pushed the broken car, and the second monk was confused, looking back at the three girls step by step.
