After watching the excitement, Zhao Qingyu suddenly realized that he had been delayed here for a long time, and was worried that Wang Lei and his younger brother would be in a hurry if they couldn't find him, so he turned around and was about to leave.

"You did it on purpose, didn't you?"

Suddenly, the backdrop behind him spoke.

Zhao Qingyu's stepped leg paused for a short second in the air, then landed again and turned around: "Of course, you are my good friends, I definitely can't die without help." You don't have to be too grateful to me, that's what I should do. ”

“……”

Xia Zimo's eyebrows twitched almost invisibly, still looking at her with cold eyes.

Footsteps approached not far away, stopping ten meters away.

Zhao Qingyu looked back, and there were two figures standing on the dim side of the road, one of the taller people was carrying two large black bags in their hands.

Xia Zimo kept staring at her, and when he saw that she was looking at that place for a long time, he also looked over suspiciously. Soon, he reacted that the person who came over was Wang Lei, who was almost involved in the storm before.

He must have come looking for her.

Xia Zimo knew it in his heart, and he also knew that Wang Lei was helping out at Zhao Qingyu's house, and the relationship between the two must be very close.

Such thoughts made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Let's go." He whispered.

Zhao Qingyu's eyes flashed slightly, a touch of sarcasm came to his eyes, ignored Xia Zimo, and turned to leave.

Walking in front of the two black shadows in front of her, one tall and one short, she sighed: "What to do?" Three tickets were wasted. ”

"Ah, no, it's okay, let's go back too."

"Well, I'll mention that."

Zhao Qingyu stretched out a hand to Wang Lei as she spoke, asking him to give her one of the bags, and the latter wanted to shirk it, saying that she could afford to lift it, but she still grabbed one without saying anything.

Alas, this bag of books still weighs a bit of a bit......

"I'll get the book!"

Wang Lei hurriedly followed, and Zhao Qingfeng also interjected beside him: "Sister, this book is sinking, I mentioned it for a while just now, and my hands were sore." ”

"I know, I know, I'll carry it."

Xia Zimo stood in place for a long time, watching the backs of the three disappear into the night.

……

The bookstore owner was afraid that the bag would break halfway, so he specially took two large plastic bags of very strong quality for Zhao Qingyu. She fastened both bags, placed them directly on one shoulder, and strode forward.

Wang Lei had no choice but to follow aside, paying attention to the large pile of information under his nose at any time, if Zhao Qingyu couldn't carry it, he could help take it over at any time.

When he walked to the gate of the Void Jade Palace, Zhao Qingyu still looked inside a little reluctantly.

Of course, she didn't think it was a pity that she didn't go in, she just felt that the ticket money was a pity......

There is only one old man left at the entrance of the train bridge cave who sells sugar cane, and now he is slowly closing his stall.

When Zhao Qingyu and the others passed by, they heard nearby residents talking to the old man about what had just happened.

Walking through the bridge cave, on the other side is the lively old pedestrian street.

It seems to be a mysterious tunnel in Spirited Away, just a dozen meters short, but the two ends are heaven and earth.

The road condition of the old pedestrian street is a little poor, but it does not prevent people from running here, there are many small shops selling clothes on both sides of the street, and every household will put a loud sound at the door, and it is lively like the New Year along the way.

Passing by an old shop specializing in selling shoes at the intersection of the vegetable market, Zhao Qingyu inadvertently glanced at it and found that the door of the shoe store was tightly closed, and the faded signboard could barely see the big characters on it.

In Zhao Qingyu's impression, this is a shoe store known as a century-old brand, whether it is a hundred years old, she doesn't know, but she remembers that this store has existed here since she was young.

This shoe store sells high-grade leather shoes.

And she only chose a pair of cute little red leather shoes in this store under the leadership of her parents on the New Year's Day of a certain year.

At the beginning of the school year, almost all the other children in the class made cotton shoes from their parents, and she wore a pair of small leather shoes that attracted the attention of almost all the children.

The sudden rush of ancient memories made Zhao Qingyu can't help but stop.

Zhao Qingfeng walked a few meters away, only to find that there was no one around, and when he turned his head, he saw Wang Lei and his sister standing together, looking at a shoe store on the left.

He turned back with a confused expression: "Brother Wang Lei, sister, what are you looking at?" Do you want to buy shoes? ”

"I don't know ...... either," Wang Lei shook his head quietly.

Zhao Qingyu retracted his gaze and smiled at the two: "Just take a look, let's go." ”

……

The moon shines in the west, and the summer breeze is slightly cool.

On the way back, Wang Lei wanted Zhao Qingyu to give him the book several times, but the latter refused.

"I can afford to hold a dozen pounds of books alone." Zhao Qingyu said jokingly.

But Wang Lei obviously saw that she had changed her shoulders several times, and even the short sleeves nearby were soaked with sweat.

It wasn't until he walked to the three-way intersection in front of the school that Zhao Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Do you want to eat supper?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhao Qingfeng clapped his hands and cheered.

"What about you? Are you going back to school now? Zhao Qingyu looked at Wang Lei, it was almost nine o'clock in the evening, the school had not yet closed, and there were still some people at the gate.

But if they have a late-night snack, the school will probably be closed.

Suddenly, Zhao Qingyu thought that some of Wang Lei's bedding was still in their house, and he was busy working in the store during the day, and he had no time to move back.

So without waiting for Wang Lei to answer, she said again: "Forget it, your things are still at my house, go and eat, and move them tomorrow." ”

"Hmm!"

Wang Lei originally wanted to agree, but he was worried that Zhao Qingyu just wanted their sister and brother to be together, and he just shouted politely at him.

Now when I saw her say this, I immediately became happy and agreed without sparing.

The door of the store was closed early, and there were still a few neighbors sitting outside chatting in the shade.

The three of them walked over, and someone looked over and asked in surprise: "It's our female general, didn't your parents collect the stall, why are you here again?" ”

"Come and have some supper, I didn't have enough to eat at night." Zhao Qingyu grinned, took out the key and opened the door.

The neighbor sitting in front of him got up, picked up his small folding chair, and walked to the side of it.

As soon as the door opened, just standing at the door, Zhao Qingyu and the others felt a wave of heat rushing towards them.

The coal stove in the house was still burning, and the door was closed and not very ventilated, and the whole room was like a big steamer.

Zhao Qingfeng stood at the door and didn't want to go in: "Sister, it's so hot." ”

Zhao Qingyu walked into the room, put the book on the table and put it down, and after moving his sore muscles and bones, he said, "You move a stool and sit outside, I'll heat up the dishes, let's eat outside." ”

"Yes, yes!"

Zhao Qingfeng became happy and went in to help Wang Lei move the tables and chairs together.

Zhao Qingyu washed his hands and face, walked to the freezer and opened the lid, and many of the night's meals were placed on the refrigerated side, and below were some washed bean sprouts and greens.

She took out the uneaten duck intestines and chicken feet and took three eggs.

Duck intestines and chicken feet don't need to be hot, just leave them next to the stove for a while, the eggs are fried into very cooked poached eggs, a plate of spicy beef fried noodles with pickled peppers, and drunkard peanuts bought in the supermarket, and it is enough for a late-night supper.

Not only that, but each person also has a large glass of cold soy milk.

The three of them sat at the door, and began to eat comfortably by the light of the house.

Most of the people chatting next to him had already gone home, leaving two or three still chatting without a word.

"Sister, the fried noodles are delicious." Zhao Qingfeng was so spicy that his nose was clear, his mouth was snorting and inhaling, and he couldn't help but put on a big chopstick.

Zhao Qingyu regretted that he put too many pickled peppers, this pickled pepper was made by their own family, it was very spicy, and he was happy for a while after eating too much, but he didn't know where his body would suffer.

Wang Lei couldn't eat spicy food, so he barely ate two mouthfuls of spicy soy milk and kept drinking soy milk.

"I'm sorry, I put more chili peppers."

"No, it's me ......"

Wang Lei poured a mouthful of ice soy milk and hurriedly waved his hand: "I took the pickled peppers, it's none of your business!" ”

Zhao Qingyu was dumbfounded, when she was cooking, Wang Lei refused to be idle at all, and had to help her, so she asked Wang Lei to dig a spoonful of pickled peppers in the pickle jar for her.

She usually eats noodles with some chili peppers, and their family is quite spicy.

Usually very spicy things for Wang Lei, Zhao Qingyu doesn't change his face when he eats, he simply thinks that Zhao Qingyu eats as spicy as possible, so when Zhao Qingyu asked him to help, he deliberately scooped a big spoon over.

Zhao Qingyu didn't think too much about it at the time, and put it in directly, but later felt that it was a little too much, and added some noodles to it, but I didn't expect it to be spicy.

She's not afraid of spicy, but she doesn't want to eat that spicy.

Looking at Wang Lei now, she obviously eats very hard, and she has to pretend that she doesn't care, and she eats super spicy pickled pepper fried noodles with them, which makes her feel a little complicated.

"This one is too spicy, you can eat something else." Zhao Qingyu pushed the chicken feet in front of him.

"It's okay, the noodles are delicious......"

Wang Lei said, and two watery snots flowed out of his nostrils.

Zhao Qingyu reluctantly put the paper in front of him again, Wang Lei hurriedly lowered his head and pulled a tissue, and quickly wiped his nose.

In order not to be "ugly", Wang Lei finally gave up eating pickled pepper fried noodles and ate chicken feet instead.

Chicken feet need to be gnawed by hand, although he has eaten with Zhao Qingyu many times, but he still can't let go, he uses chopsticks to clip a chicken claw, bites hard for a long time, and does not gnaw the chicken paws clean.

On the other hand, Zhao Qingyu and Zhao Qingfeng had a small pile of chicken bones on the table in front of them.

Zhao Qingfeng finished gnawing on a chicken paw and was about to get it, but he was patted on the back of his hand by his sister.

"Sister? What's wrong? ”

"How much have you eaten, Wang Lei hasn't eaten any of them yet, and the remaining two are for him." Zhao Qingyu nodded a little duck intestine, "You eat this." ”

Zhao Qingfeng pursed his lips, and Wang Lei hurriedly helped him speak: "No, let him eat." ”

Zhao Qingfeng, who felt a little aggrieved just now, was suddenly a little embarrassed, and he put the chicken feet plate directly in front of Wang Lei: "Brother Wang Lei, you eat, I have already eaten enough." ”

Zhao Qingyu also added, you can't eat too much at night, so Wang Lei didn't excuse himself.

Before I knew it, it was getting darker, everyone was chatting with them went home, and the lights in the school guard room opposite were extinguished.

Zhao Qingyu turned his head to look at the wall clock hanging in the middle of the store, the hour hand was only a few millimeters away from eleven o'clock.

She got up to clean up the scraps on the table, Wang Lei moved the chair back first, and Zhao Qingfeng ran back to the store and happily picked up the big bag of snacks.

When Zhao Qingyu turned around and came back after emptying the garbage, he saw two people standing at the door, one carrying a bag in his hand.

Closing the door of the store, she stretched out her hand to Wang Lei: "Thank you, give it to me." ”

Wang Lei didn't give it to her at all, and whispered, "I'll take it." ”

Zhao Qingyu didn't speak, and walked behind silently.

There was some silence between the two, only Zhao Qingfeng was bouncing in front of him with snacks, and after walking a few steps, he turned around and came back to see them.

"Sister! Brother Wang Lei, hurry up! ”

"Well, be careful." Wang Lei opened his mouth to remind.

Zhao Qingyu couldn't help frowning slightly, always feeling that Wang Lei's tone of voice was a little weird.

Even Zhao Qingfeng couldn't help but laugh: "What's wrong with this, Brother Wang Lei, you talk like my mother!" ”

Wang Lei: "......"

Yes, Zhao Qingyu was a little helpless, from the time he came out at night, Wang Lei spoke to Zhao Qingfeng with an indescribable feeling.

It's like...... Adults doting on children??

This thought made Zhao Qingyu shudder.

Wang Lei was not only not angry when Zhao Qingfeng said this, but also felt a little embarrassed.

Because of Zhao Qingyu's relationship, he did automatically bring in the mentality role of the elders in the face of Zhao Qingfeng.

Zhao Qingyu is not like the sisters and brothers of the same age he has seen before, they either quarrel or fight at home, their relationship is too good, Zhao Qingyu treats his younger brother like a child, both strict and loving.

Just now, when the three of them were eating supper at a table, he felt that Zhao Qingfeng was like a child, Zhao Qingyu was like a child's mother, and he was ...... Also part of a family of three.

So just now when he saw Zhao Qingfeng running and jumping happily in front, his feeling was especially strong.

When he spoke, he unconsciously brought a bit of kindness......

He thought that no one would find out, but he didn't expect to be debunked by Zhao Qingfeng all of a sudden.

Fortunately, it was very dark, and no one could see his reddened ears.

Now he only hopes that Zhao Qingyu didn't hear anything.

However......

Zhao Qingyu felt a little worried, she really didn't want to have a stiff relationship with Wang Lei as a last resort.

He is a very nice and gentle person, and she doesn't want to hurt him.

When she and Xia Zimo were acting before, Wang Lei had never had any obvious performance that crossed the line, and he was always unknown.

But later, after she and Xia Zimo were cold and estranged, Wang Lei seemed to become more enthusiastic, and he also saw everything that happened outside the Xuyu Palace with his own eyes tonight......

Zhao Qingyu looked at the back of Wang Lei, who was walking forward not far ahead, her eyes were slightly downcast, and she pursed her lips, she already had some plans in her heart.

When she entered the stairwell, she pulled out her PHS, and the small blue electronic screen could only emit a faint light, barely illuminating the concrete steps under her feet.

Zhao Qingfeng walked forward, his steps were clanging, and Zhao Qingyu asked him to be quiet, so as not to wake up others.

"Oh......"

"Xiao Feng, you are in your class, do any girls like you?"

“…… Sister, why are you suddenly asking this? ”

Zhao Qingyu asked casually, wanting to bring up her own topic, but she didn't expect her brother to not deny it directly, but asked her a little shyly? !

Something is wrong, something is very wrong.
