Ten years ago, Luo Li's family had not moved to Chenghuang City, and they lived very close to Luqiao. At that time, although there were immigrants in Luqiao, they did not become what they are now.

It was overcast that day, and in the evening the clouds finally couldn't bear the pressure of the water vapor and began to drop raindrops on the ground.

Although the rain was not heavy, it caused a lot of trouble for pedestrians on the road. Seeing that it was time for school, her father hadn't come to pick her up yet. Luo Li waited a little anxiously.

"Luo Li, let's take the bus home together." Miao Miao took a pink umbrella, and the light through the umbrella imprinted her face extremely pink.

"My dad said he was coming to pick me up, and I wanted to wait for him." Luo Li hesitated.

"Oh, we're already junior high school students, we're no longer children, we always have to try to get to and from school by ourselves." Miao Miao stepped forward to hold her arm, and looked at her with big eyes flickering, like a porcelain doll.

Lori will never forget what she looked like. Her face, her expression, the milky white skin she once envied......

At this time, there was a thunder in the sky, and a huge lightning bolt illuminated the bus stop not far away. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it was crowded with people waiting for the bus.

Luo Li looked at the gradually deserted school gate and the increasingly dark sky, then nodded and followed Miao Miao towards the station.

Due to the traffic congestion, the bus came very slowly that day, and every time it came, people rushed forward and hugged until the door was full of people, and the bus door was barely closed.

The short, emaciated two squeezed several times to no avail, and each time they were pushed aside without even seeing the bus door.

They were a little discouraged, and if they continued like this, they would never get in the car.

"Luo Li, these people are really hateful, not to mention the strength and so many things, they pushed us out with a left and right squeeze." Miao Miao said angrily.

"Lori? Interesting name......" The voice of the man behind them startled them.

Lori turned around, and a man in a white shirt with an umbrella stood behind them, and she didn't know how much he had listened to their conversation.

Luo Li didn't want to pay attention to him, and pulled Miao Miao to the side.

The man did not move, but said gently, "Isn't the little girl accompanied by an adult?" It's not safe to go home alone, so be sure to call your parents to pick you up next time. ”

"How do you know we don't have a parent?" Miao Miao didn't finish her words before she was pulled by Luo Li.

"Isn't that clear? If you have a parent with you, you will already be on the bus, and you may have arrived home by this time, changed into clean clothes and eaten beautifully. "A man's voice is flat, and it's easy to make people feel good.

The two little girls didn't speak, and they were still wary of him as a stranger.

The man smiled disappreciatively and said, "After a while, stand in front of me, and I'll help you squeeze into the car." ”

As he said this, his face was always covered by a lowered umbrella. But his white shirt and manicured nails still made them feel a little fond of him.

They looked at each other, still ignoring him.

As the days ticked by, the rain was already drenching their trouser legs, and it was getting darker. After another unsuccessful attempt to crowd the bus, they finally accepted the man's help.

He smiled lowly: "Look, I'll just say, if you had asked me for help, you would have been sitting comfortably at home by this time." ”

The man asked them to stand in front of him, and when the bus came in again, he stretched out his hands to protect them, escorting them through the crowd and squeezing them through the door.

Because of the crowding, Luo Li didn't pay attention to the man's hand on her, and in hindsight, she only vaguely remembered that the hands were slender and powerful, and the temperature was very high.

There were so many people that she squeezed the three of them together several times, and it was at that time that Luo Li smelled the faint smell of lavender on the man's shirt. The smell was very different in the foul air.

Miao Miao had a good impression of men because of this, so she talked to him. Lori didn't pay attention to their conversation, her mind drawn to the rain outside.

Why didn't Dad come to pick me up? What if he goes to school to find me? Would he blame me if he knew I was riding the bus home alone? Thinking about it so worriedly, he was suddenly pushed by Miao Miao.

"Huh?" Lori looked back at them.

Speaking of which, the man was really nice, he stood behind them all the time after getting into the car, using his body to help them block the crowd behind them.

"What are you pushing me for?" Lori asked.

"What's the fuss? You're almost there. Miao Miao reminded.

"Oh, oh." Luo Li glanced at the stop sign and was about to squeeze towards the door.

"Her home is closer." Miao Miao said to the man behind her.

When did they become so familiar? Lori thought about it but didn't look back, she felt uncomfortable somewhere a pair of eyes staring at her.

She scrambled through the crack and squeezed towards the car door. Wherever she passed, people bent their bodies into various forms to allow her to pass.

Because of her short stature, she kept getting under the armpits of these people, and the already foul air smelled even worse.

Just when she couldn't help but cover her mouth and nose, the faint smell of lavender appeared around her again. The man in the white shirt protected her and seemed to be getting out of the car.

"The name Lori is really interesting." Again, he used her name as an introduction to talk to her.

Luo Li didn't know how to answer, so she just hummed. As she grew older, she was also exposed to some rambling and had a vague idea of the word 'Lori'. She didn't like the name.

"Hey, let's go, will you get out of the car too?" Behind him, a tall, large man stabbed the man in the white shirt and said.

"Oh...... I don't get out of the car, you pass first. The man in the white shirt turned his body to the side to make it easier for the big man to pass through.

With this big guy to open the way, Lori easily followed him to the car door.

When she turned back, she could no longer see the man in the white shirt, and her view was completely blocked by the big man.

"It's a pity, it's such an interesting name." The moment she turned around, she seemed to hear someone say this. Because of her obstructed vision, she couldn't see the person who was speaking.

The moment the car door opened, she was pushed and shoved by the people behind to get out of the car, and almost fell during the process, but fortunately, the big man in front of her blocked her, and she barely stood still.

"Is the little girl herself? It's too dangerous to pick up and drop off without a parent. The big man's voice was angry.

Lori could even hear the resonance in his chest.

"It's not...... My dad was there waiting for me. Lori was terrified of the big guys, and she said with a quick wit, pointing to the crowd hiding from the rain in front of the shop across the road.

After saying that, she hurriedly ran to the opposite side, and when she couldn't help but look back, the big man was gone.

The white figure on the bus was slowly leaning in the direction of Miao Miao, and finally stood behind Miao Miao...... The light blue bus slowly drove away from the station, and Miao Miao waved at her through the glass of the bus.

Many years later, when she thought of Miao Miao again, her memory would still stay in that scene, she didn't expect that this would be the last time they met in this life......
