Friday.

After evening self-study, Zhou Shiyan's doorstep.

"See you next week."

After Liu Zhiyue said this, he was about to turn around and leave.

Zhou Shiyan, who was standing at the door of the house, looked at Liu Zhiyue's back with a pair of eyes.

Lips slightly open.

"On the road...... Stay safe. ”

Liu Zhiyue's movement downstairs paused, and then he moved again.

He waved his hand.

"I'm a boy who is not safe yet, you go into the house first......"

Taking advantage of the night, Liu Zhiyue's figure slowly disappeared from Zhou Shiyan's sight.

Zhou Shiyan stood at the door for a long time, until she couldn't see the other party's figure, then turned around and opened the door behind her and walked into the house.

Silent roads, dimly lit environments.

There aren't many light sources in this area, so the whole road looks eerie.

Liu Zhiyue's pace accelerated, and today is the third day to send Zhou Shiyan home.

Liu Zhiyue didn't know what Zhou Shiyan was afraid of.

In his opinion, it was undoubtedly that the other party's house lived in a bit of a remote place, and the road was a little darker, and he didn't feel anything to be afraid of in the past three days.

Maybe it's because the other party is a girl?

seems to think of the first day, when Zhou Shiyan was about to go home, she suddenly grabbed her clothes and showed a somewhat frightened look.

Liu Zhiyue wanted to laugh for some reason.

He thought it was strange that he could see other expressions on the other party's always expressionless face.

But...... After thinking about the other party's living environment, Liu Zhiyue probably knew why Zhou Shiyan always wore a school uniform.

It's even more unbearable than your own home......

Liu Zhiyue's footsteps sounded step by step on the street.

He didn't know if it was his own delusion, but he always felt that the footsteps that had been very regular just now suddenly became a little noisy.

It's as if someone else has joined the original queue.

Stop, the movement is clear.

Liu Zhiyue looked back, except for the empty streets, there were only dark buildings on both sides.

Because there is no light source, the surroundings actually give people an eerie feeling.

Shaking his head slightly, Liu Zhiyue put aside the cranky things in his mind and continued to move.

He felt ...... Presumably their own psychological effects.

One step at a time......

Liu Zhiyue continued to walk dozens of steps, and suddenly he felt something strange in his right foot, and looked down to see that the shoelace was loosened.

Pressing down, Liu Zhiyue squatted down to tie his shoes.

But before he could start tying his shoes, he felt a sudden sound of footsteps behind him.

It's like someone is running towards you.

A bad premonition came to his heart, and Liu Zhiyue almost instinctively reacted to it, and his body dodged to one side.

"Bang dang!!"

The sound of metal pounding on the ground sounded in Liu Zhiyue's ears, and his eyes looked at the rusty iron bar.

Suddenly raised his head and looked to the side.

A man holding an iron rod and tapping the ground.

The figure looked a little thin, because it was a squatting perspective, Liu Zhiyue didn't see what the other party's height was, but he was wearing a peaked cap, and his face was tightly wrapped and only those eyes were exposed.

There was no time to tie his shoes, and Liu Zhiyue's brain was running rapidly.

Although he didn't know why the other party was wielding a mallet at him, he knew very well that if this guy went down with a stick, he would lose half his life if he didn't die.

Rushing forward, Liu Zhiyue used all his strength to crash towards the man.

Comparing the figures of the two, Liu Zhiyue obviously has the upper hand.

Therefore, at the moment when Liu Zhiyue hit the other party, the opponent's thin body fell to the ground, and even rolled around on the ground.

didn't have time to think about it, Liu Zhiyue immediately ran.

He glanced back behind him as he ran......

The man had already stood up, holding the iron rod in one hand and chasing after him with a rapid pace.

Because the shoelace on his right foot was loosened, Liu Zhiyue's running speed was greatly impaired.

The distance between the two is getting closer.

Until Liu Zhiyue felt a sharp pain in his back.

The other party directly smashed the iron rod in his hand on his body.

At the moment of being attacked, Liu Zhiyue's body unloaded some strength, and the sharp pain in his back restricted his running movements, and he almost fell to the ground, so he quickly stabilized his body and turned around to take the iron rod that had just been smashed at him by the other party in his hand.

As soon as he turned around, the man had already run in front of him.

kicked at Liu Zhiyue.

The stomach was kicked firmly, and Liu Zhiyue sat on the ground with his butt at that time.

His gaze was on the man's face.

A pair of slender eyes, full of madness in their eyes.

Sitting on the ground, Liu Zhiyue watched as the other party bent down to pick up the iron rod not far away, and then looked around to make sure that no one was there before walking towards Liu Zhiyue with the iron rod in one hand.

With his hands on the ground, under the vigorous exercise, and the pain in his back, Liu Zhiyue felt that his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

One hand grabbed at the ground and grabbed a handful of dry dirt.

He threw himself at the man who was approaching him, and then climbed up again in pain, the unlaced shoe falling off his foot.

Probably didn't expect Liu Zhiyue to come to this hand, and a pair of eyes that were only exposed to the air were fascinated by this sudden handful of dust.

There was an "ah" cry from his mouth, and then he raised his hand to cover it.

Liu Zhiyue ignored him, he used all his strength to run, and the foot without shoes was pierced by the small stones on the ground.

————————————————

Liu Changqing looked at the text messages sent by the bank on his mobile phone over and over again.

Especially the string of numbers.

At the end of the month, the website will send the manuscript fee and the amount of the tip.

After removing taxes, the amount of tips for the first place on the list, after the website's commission, has more than 70,000 to 80,000.

In the ten days after it was put on the shelves, Liu Changqing added more than 100 paid chapters, and it costs three cents to subscribe to a chapter, and after removing the website's commission, he erased the odds to get 210,000 yuan.

After the miscellaneous things were removed, Liu Changqing's bank card already had a small amount of assets, and he was no longer the poor and sour appearance of only 3,000 yuan left when he first came to this world.

At noon, the publisher still came to the door to hope to publish a physical book, which has not yet been discussed with the other party.

Liu Changqing, who was silent when the bad days came, suddenly heard a violent slapping sound coming from the release.

He quickly got up and went to open the door.

"Zhiyue? Why do you knock so hard? ”

Liu Changqing said as he pulled the door open.

What caught his eyes was Liu Zhiyue, who was panting constantly, wearing shoes on one foot and socks on the other.

The sweat on his forehead kept sliding down his cheeks, and his clothes were covered with dust.

A fat face turned pale.

It seemed that after seeing Liu Changqing, Liu Zhiyue, who was tense all the time, breathed a sigh of relief, and the heart that he had been lifting fell.

muttered in his mouth.

"Daddy......"

And then it fell forward.

In a panic, he hugged his son, and Liu Changqing, who was a little stunned just now, reacted, and the expression on his face was full of anxiety.

"Son!!"
