"Yes."

You Xuezhen looked at Meng Shilong and his motorcycle under the street lamp in a daze, the dim light and shadow dragged the motorcycle out of the shadow of the beast, like a fierce mount, and he could escape from this quicksand land by riding it.

"I want to go for a ride." She blurted out, "Then can you take me for a ride?" ”

Chapter 10

At the moment when he blurted out, his brain didn't think much, as if another person was hiding in his body and shouting, and he immediately came back to his senses after he spoke.

She interrupted: "Oh, I remember you said you didn't carry people. Forget it, it's fine. ”

Meng Shilong was silent for a long time and said, "That's a lie. ”

"Huh?"

"I often take Abba to the morning market to shop."

“…… Boy. ”

This kid is so deeply hidden, he rejected the girl at the time, saying that he only carried takeaways, and her tone was not like a fake at all, and she was deceived by him.

Meng Shilong took the initiative to say: "So I can carry you." ”

"Really?"

"In return, yes." He glanced at his phone, "But can you wait another hour for me?" A regular customer just placed an order for me to deliver, and I have to go back to the store. ”

Wait, wait, wait, But she didn't want to wait any longer.

You Xuezhen thought for a moment: "Otherwise, I'll send it with you, isn't this process also a ride." ”

Meng Shilong was stunned, and after hearing her say this, he didn't say anything more, and happily handed over the helmet hanging on the handlebar.

"You put this on."

You Xuezhen put a set of helmets on his head as he said, his helmet was very large, and he felt like an empty goldfish bowl on the set, and it would jingle when he shook it.

Meng Shilong looked down at her wearing a helmet and gestured at the elastic band on the edge of the helmet.

"You're too small, you need to turn this off."

"Is that so?" She tried to adjust it, he shook his head, looked at her unfamiliar movements for a while, leaned over coldly, held her entire head with a helmet in one hand, and pulled the elastic tie with the other, "Is it tight now?" ”

“…… Tight, tight. ”

He leaned over suddenly, and her tone of reply froze unconsciously.

Meng Shilong took a long step, straddled the car, turned his head and tilted his head at her.

"Come on."

You Xuezhen hesitated: "Then are you okay if you don't wear a helmet?" ”

"What did you say?"

The helmet blocked out most of the sound, and he couldn't hear it clearly, so she had to raise her voice and ask again in a loud voice.

"I said, are you okay without a helmet?"

After all, he had crashed into a car last time......

"It's fine."

This time, she couldn't hear clearly: "-What did you say?" ”

He had no choice but to repeat at a loud volume: "It's okay." ”

You Xuezhen finally heard it clearly, and was suspicious, and cautiously reached his back seat.

This bike is really tall...... Once you're fully seated, your eyes take off.

The uneasiness and hesitation were defeated by the novelty at this moment, this was her first time on a motorcycle, and she couldn't wait to feel the feeling of speeding in the wind.

Her tone began to be excited: "I'm seated!" ”

Meng Shilong turned his head to look at her again, and said something to her again.

You Xuezhen held the "goldfish bowl": "Huh? What did you say? ”

Meng Shilong gave up his words and turned them into action - he reached out and grabbed her wrist through his clothes and put it on his waist.

He was still wearing a thin one, a black T, so he could feel the residual warmth of the skin under the fabric, as well as a solid touch.

The moment she touched it, she couldn't help but bend her fingertips, and she wanted to retract uncomfortably.

But the soaring engine didn't give her that chance.

The body was off the strings, and she was pushed forward by the huge air pressure, clinging to Meng Shilong's back, and the helmet smashed into his shoulder.

“…… I'm sorry! ”

She hurriedly apologized, but he didn't seem to hear it, and the roar filled between him and her.

The motorcycle drove into the streets, but to be honest, a little disappointed.

It doesn't feel much cool, after all, motorcycles are just ordinary means of transportation, and what I want is not a ride at all.

But thinking of the school gate that was left behind, the place where she had been waiting stupidly all day today, she still wanted to raise her arms and shout, feeling that she was very chic at this moment.

The motorbike turned around and left the area where the university was gathering and drove towards Minamimachi. Countless skyscrapers line one another, illuminating the night in a haunting way.

You Xuezhen couldn't help but muttered in her heart, wouldn't it, his family's barbecue restaurant was actually opened in such a prosperous business district as Nanding?

She rarely comes to this area, and all the people who come here are white-collar workers. So she didn't know at all that there was an urban village in the center of this brightly lit city.

The alleys are intertwined, and compared with the buildings that are about to rise into the sky, the low houses here are like a basin sunken down after being hit by a meteorite, and the ground is uneven, high and low. The whole alley is filled with rumbling Tuhi pop songs, and the neon lights at the entrance of the alley are flashing so that people's eyes hurt.

The place is filled with a high saturation that desperately emphasizes itself in order to survive.

Meng Shilong stopped the motorcycle in front of it and turned off the engine, signaling that she could come down.

"It's so narrow inside," he said, "you have to walk in." ”

"Oh, good."

"You can wait here for me, I'll be back soon."

"Then what's the matter, I'm here, of course I have to see your store."

She took off her helmet and followed Meng Shilong inside curiously.

Inside, it is completely like a fifth-tier town, with vegetable vendors piling vegetables and fruits at the door, and the grocery store next to it also putting a basket of snacks at the door for easy selection, all in bulk, and the wrapping paper is shiny. Two steps away there is a hair salon, the tricolor lights flicker on and off, and a middle-aged man sitting in it shaving his head is reflected in the blurred frosted glass window.

Obviously, it was just a few steps away, and the world turned upside down. Just a few steps away is a wide street with brightly lit office buildings.

It's too ironic.

You Xuezhen was shocked by this strong contrasting picture, she didn't speak all the way, followed Meng Shilong and looked left and right, and finally saw a familiar signboard - Meng Ji Barbecue. After ordering takeout a few times, it was the first time she saw the store, and she had a sense of excitement about online dating.

Compared to the bungalow next to it, the shop looks more magnificent, and it is a small two-story building. The first floor is the barbecue restaurant, and the second floor is ...... You Xuezhen looked up at the black-lit window, thinking to herself, that is probably their home, right? No wonder he always smells of oil smoke lingering on his body.

Meng Shilong stopped: "I'll go in and get the list, soon." ”

"Okay."

She stood in the doorway and didn't go in, afraid of causing trouble, so she only glanced at it cursoryly.

There is not much business in the store, and there are a few tables of customers, sitting at the table with the newspaper pressed. Only then did she notice that the furnishings were a bit out of place, with some Hong Kong-style newspaper clippings plastered on the turquoise checkered tile walls. If you ignore the barbecue sign outside, it looks like an authentic tea restaurant.

A middle-aged man came out of the back kitchen with a bottle of beer, and his appearance was somewhat similar to Meng Shilong's - it should be his father.

One of the two came out, the other went in, and when they passed by, they simply greeted each other:

"There are two bags, don't miss them."

"Got it."

They speak Cantonese.

You Xuezhen looked at the decoration of the restaurant again, and wondered in her heart that their father and son would not be from Hong Kong Island, right? She wasn't sure, because the subtle differences in Cantonese accents from different regions would sound the same to her as a layman. However, she feels that Cantonese is a very beautiful language, because she has had a complex for Hong Kong Island since she was a child.

Dad Meng brought the beer to a certain table, and You Xuezhen was afraid to meet his eyes, so he walked to a more remote corner outside the door and waited. When I was alone, that heavy feeling returned.

She warned herself not to look at her phone, but after staring at her toes for a while, she still couldn't control clicking on WeChat.

There is no news from Ye Wanbai.

She secretly clicked into Huang Qianru's circle of friends again, and she updated a dynamic.

"The sick number can only come to drink porridge, miserable"

A picture of the food is served: two bowls of porridge, one bowl of white porridge, and the other bowl of raw rolling fish fillet porridge.

Raw fish fillet porridge is also the taste of the leaves gradually whitening.

It seems that the position has been shifted to drink porridge.

She let out a breath and quickly extinguished the screen. Meng Shilong happened to come out with two barbecue bags.

You Xuezhen hurriedly put the phone in her pocket and pointed to the bag: "I'll help you get it!" This way, you don't have to get on a trailer. ”

Meng Shilong stopped in front of her and looked at her slightly.

"Don't worry, you can't fall." He decisively swept down the sentence: "You just have to enjoy the ride today." ”

*

After Meng Shilong delivered the takeaway and the task was completed, she understood what he meant just now.

- And then there's the real drive.

He drove her on a motorcycle and began to drive towards the suburbs, and the speed of the car suddenly started so fast that she was like sitting on a jumping machine, and lost her mind at the moment of his speed, and then her chest jumped wildly.

At this time, she finally had a little sense that she was really going for a ride.

The motorcycle drove faster and faster, and the surroundings began to become deserted, which made You Xuezhen's heart beat faster and faster - not only because of the speed, but also because of a trace of doubt and fear.

Are you too reckless? The person who was carrying her now, she didn't know him at all, and she got along that night with all the total.

She didn't really know what kind of person he was, whether he was really harmless.

What if he would hurt himself?
