Chapter 25: We Don't Know Each Other

What was even more frightening was that this feeling of being high up in the air, out of the ground, made her suddenly remember the strange and terrible dream she had that night a few days ago.

The weightlessness of the rapid fall in the dream made her inexplicably afraid.

Her head was dizzy, her legs were weak when she stepped on the branches, and she could only close her eyes and cling to the trunk with both hands.

What to do? What to do?

Before today, she had never known that she was afraid of heights. She remembers that when she was a child, she climbed the ladder to see the swallow's nest under the eaves, and she was not afraid of being like this today!

On top of that, the group of children below are still looking up at her, waiting for her to come down!

"Sister Su...... Sister Su...... Hurry down! ”

"Good! You go and wash the fruit first, and Sister Su will come down immediately! Su Wu agreed, but she didn't dare to move, and she didn't even dare to open her eyes.

The children are so simple-minded, after listening to Su Wu's words, they ran to the edge of the pool to wash the fruits.

Su Wu listened to the children's footsteps getting farther and farther away, and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

She originally wanted to separate the children first, lest she fall down and hit the children and break them.

Su Wu took a few deep breaths, forced himself to calm down, and tried to move down little by little.

Who knows, at this moment, an old angry shout suddenly came: "Su girl! What are you doing climbing up a tree?! ”

Su Wu listened to the voice, and after a pause, a spirit opened his eyes.

Not far from under the tree, a short old man in black clothes and black trousers, with gray hair, was standing upright, staring at her with his beard cocked.

This person is Pei Qingnian, and since the death of Su's mother, he has served as the director of the welfare institute. The children in the welfare home call him Grandpa Pei, a cold-faced and warm-hearted old man who is very interesting.

Su Wu saw that his heart was weak for a while, he laughed dryly, and said, "Pei ...... Dean Pei...... Hehe...... Hehe...... Are you there too? ”

"Heh, what! Don't give the old man a sloppy eye! Old man Pei pointed at her, with a look of hating iron but not steel, and said, "You girl! There's a guest coming in a moment, what's the matter with you hanging there? Monkey pretend?! Hurry up and get me down! ”

As soon as Su Wu heard it, he understood what Old Man Pei meant, and his feelings were that someone came to the welfare home today to donate love. If you can make Old Man Pei a distinguished guest, it must be a big deal, and it is not a group donation activity.

But the problem is that her legs are weak and her feet are weak, and she doesn't dare to move at all! Moreover....... she saw that the two children who had washed the fruit were looking at her under the tree, and she could not admit in front of the children that her omnipotent superhuman sister was stumped by a tree!

Making up his mind, Su Wu endured the fear in his heart and laughed dryly: "Hehe...... Old man Pei...... Oh! No, no, Dean Pei! Why don't you go and entertain your guests first, and I'll cool down on this for a while?" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she was exchanged for a burst of applause from Old Man Pei: "What?!" Do you know ....... girl?"

"Dean Pei."

A low and clear male voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Dean Pei's words.

Su Wu was stunned for a moment, and the voice ...... It's a little familiar.

She turned her head slowly, and took her eyes to look at it, and it didn't matter, and she froze for a moment.

The young man not far away, who was standing tall and striding towards her and Old Man Pei, why did he look so much like Mu Zhengyao?!

Su Wu only felt that her temples were jumping suddenly!

How could he be here?! The distinguished guest that Old Man Pei just said couldn't be him, right?

Just when Su Wu was thinking nonsense, Mu Zhengyao had already come to the tree.

Dean Pei immediately greeted him, and the two shook hands with each other and greeted each other.

Seeing this, Su Wu immediately turned his head, buried his face among the branches and leaves, and prayed silently: You can't see me, you can't see me......

However......

"Dean Pei, this is the ...... on the tree"

When Su Wu heard this, his hands shook, his feet slipped, his body shook twice and almost fell, and he subconsciously hurriedly hugged the trunk with both hands. Frightened, her little heart was about to pop out of her throat, and she didn't realize that the branch under her feet had been broken.

Under the tree.

"Oh, Mr. Mu, this is Miss Su. No, I heard that you were coming, so I climbed up the tree to pick the fruit, and I wanted you to try it! Old man Pei smiled, his tone was very gentle, and he looked the same as when he yelled at Su Wu just now.

Su Wu pursed his lips disappreciatively. Gee! Look, look, what a good thing to say!

Mu Zhengyao looked up at the slender figure who only hated himself for not having chameleons among the branches and leaves, quietly hooked the corners of his lips, and said very politely: "That's really too troublesome Miss Su." ”

"No trouble, no trouble! She's happy to do it! ”

Su Wu: "......! ”

Who wants to! Who wants to! Old man Pei, you are a lot old, don't you feel ashamed to talk nonsense with your eyes open like this?

Just when she finished complaining about Old Man Pei, the broken branch under her feet became bigger and bigger, and by the time Su Wu noticed something was wrong, it was already too late.

only heard a crisp sound of "click", one of Su Wu's feet suddenly lost its focus, and it was difficult for her to keep her balance, which was already weak, and her body fell off the tree as soon as she was crooked.

"Ah——!h

Su Wu exclaimed, only to feel a huge sense of dizziness and weightlessness quickly hit her whole body, except for fear, she couldn't react at all.

At the same time, under the tree, an agile and agile figure quickly moved forward, spreading its arms and firmly holding her in its arms.

Su Wu's whole person was dizzy.

She was dizzy, and she was still thinking in her heart: It didn't hurt so much when she fell, and she knew that she didn't have to be scared in the tree for so long. It was such a hot day that her clothes were almost soaked......

"Su girl! Su girl! Are you okay? Don't scare me, old man! Wake up! Wake up! ”

In a daze, Su Wu's ears heard the anxious voice of Old Man Pei.

She slowly opened her eyes.

Who knows, what catches my eye is a pair of dark and narrow eyes, these eyes are deep and deep, the eyelashes are long and thick, and the eyes are full of nervous and worried light, just looking straight at her without blinking.

In this case, Su Wu's first thought was that she was hugged by him again!

She struggled out of his embrace, stood up, took a few steps back, and greeted uneasily: "Mu ...... Mr. Mu......"

Mu Zhengyao stared at her up and down for a while, and then said lightly: "It's okay." ”

"You girl! I just scared the old man to death! Fortunately, Mr. Mu, otherwise it would have been so dangerous to fall from such a tall tree! Why don't you come over and thank you, Mr. Mu! ”

Pei Qingnian came up and reprimanded mercilessly.

Although it sounds harsh, the concern between the lines is obvious.

Su Wu's heart warmed, and she lowered her head and walked over embarrassedly: "Thank you, Mr. Mu." ”

"No thanks." After a pause, he said again, "Miss Su, meet again." ”

Pei Qingnian was stunned when he heard this, looked at Su Wu, then at Mu Zhengyao, and asked uncertainly, "You two...... Acquaintance? ”

"We ......"

As soon as Mu Zhengyao spoke, Su Wu immediately snatched it quickly: "I don't know, I don't know, we don't know!" ”

Hearing this, Mu Zhengyao frowned slightly, looking at her without speaking.

Don't recognize? Scold......
