Chapter 16: Tailgating
"From today onwards, we are strangers." The resolute back four years ago resurfaced in Xiao Yuchen's mind.
Is the world immobile or ever-changing? Four years have passed, Su Yue has become her family-like existence, Yu Wei has become a lackey for her to call, and Zhou Zimeng, who was once the only one to protect her, has become a cold-eyed enemy.
Xiao Yuchen walked alone in the alley that didn't shine a trace of light, still worried about what happened in the classroom just now, but the extra footsteps behind her suddenly brought her back to her senses from her gloomy memories.
If her instincts were right, someone followed her all the way from school.
I'm used to being run away, and it's new to be followed so closely. It is unlikely that the other party is from the school, and there is a chance that he will be targeted by one of Su Yue's enemies.
She remained silent for the time being, calculated the time to suddenly turn around on a section of the road that lacked shelter, but instead of rushing to the ground as usual, the other party fell to the ground in fright.
With the faint light, Xiao Yuchen saw the other party's face clearly, and it was actually that Ye Lingchuan again.
"What are you doing with me?" She glared at him speechlessly. Whether this person has a brain problem, she rarely kindly let him go, and he actually came with him.
"I didn't follow you," Ye Lingchuan turned his face awkwardly, "My family just happens to be nearby." ”
"Yes," Xiao Yuchen looked at him suspiciously, "Then you go home, I have somewhere else to go." ”
"Where are you going?" He asked curiously.
"What's your business?"
"I ...... Can I go with you? "I don't have any friends, I don't have a place to go, and my parents always come back late, so I don't want to be alone at home." ”
"If you don't want to go home, you just go back to school, where is there so much nonsense." Xiao Yuchen interrupted him impatiently.
"But," his voice was quieter than before, "if you're at school, you'll meet those people from your old class......
Xiao Yuchen's eyes darkened for a moment, although he didn't make it clear, but she knew this feeling better than anyone else. She used to be the same, she had no friends, no home to go back to, and she stayed in school and was afraid of being bullied by Yu Wei and them.
"Forget it, come with me."
She couldn't believe that she would say such a thing, and those compassions that had long been discarded were still a little remnant. She didn't know what medicine she had taken wrong, and she pitied this guy who was neither male nor female.
"Thank you, you're such a nice guy!" Ye Lingchuan laughed happily. That overly beautiful face was touching when it was silent, and the smile was even more incomprehensible, Xiao Yuchen looked at him with a smile that was almost frozen, almost forgetting that he was a boy.
