Chapter 41

She couldn't speak out, feeling that her request was too unreasonable.

I was a little disappointed and just about to look back,
Lu Bandit raised his eyes and looked over. The girl's gaze was so eager. How could he not see it? It's just...

"Zhaozhao, you can't eat any more." Lu Bandit was a little helpless: "Crabs are very cold and are not good for your health."

Ye Zhaozhao: "………………"

She said it as if she was greedy, but Ye Zhaozhao couldn't refute it, her face turned slightly red, and she pretended to be nonchalant: "Well, I know, I don't really want to eat it."

"Yes, yes, yes." Mr. Lu reconciled: "There are so many dishes. We, Xiao Zhao, don't care about the Laoshizi crab. We want to eat it when we are healthy!"

Ye Zhaozhao: "………………"

Land bandit: "……………………"

I didn’t know for a moment whether Mr. Lu was deliberately insulting Ye Zhaozhao.

Lu Bandit couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw the girl's face turned red and she was eating white rice with her head lowered.

Ye Zhaozhao had always been quiet and silent before, and the bandits never knew that she had such a lively and bright personality.

After dinner, Mr. Lu sent the two of them out to play.

"Didn't Yuanyuan say there was a lantern festival last time?" Mr. Lu pointed at his grandson like an order: "Take Xiao Zhao out to play."

What Ye Zhaozhao didn't expect was that Lu Bandit agreed.

This surprised her a little, after all, the land bandits in the past had never been interested in these activities.

For him, it is better to work than to spend time doing these boring things.

"Young Master, Miss Ye's clothes have been delivered."

Lu Bandit took it and said, "Okay, go ahead and do your work first."

Ye Zhaozhao was thinking about going back to the third bedroom to get a coat later when there was a knock on the door.

Opening the door, Lu Bandit was standing at the door, holding several gift bags in his hands.

"It's cold outside, wear more clothes."

Ye Zhaozhao thought for a moment and took it. Seeing the big brand logo on the gift bag, she roughly estimated the number: "Thank you, I will transfer the money to you in a moment."

When Lu Bandit heard this, he rubbed his fingers unconsciously twice, lying without drafting: "I just handed over the money paid by grandpa."

Therefore, he will not ask for the money.

"Do you think I'm a fool?" Ye Zhaozhao couldn't help but said.

How could Mr. Lu think so carefully and know her size?

Lu Bandit's expression was calm: "You can ask grandpa."

Ye Zhaozhao: "………………"

Ye Zhaozhao sneered and closed the door.

Even if Grandpa Lu hadn't bought it, if she asked, Grandpa Lu would definitely help cover up the bandits. She wasn't that stupid yet.

Ye Zhaozhao closed his eyes, feeling complicated.

She had clearly made up her mind not to have any contact with the Lu bandits, but she spent the Mid-Autumn Festival at the Lu family's old house.

Nowadays, things bought by land bandits are accepted.

what is this?
Ye Zhaozhao leaned against the door, holding the gift bag tightly, his fingertips trembling slightly.

Outside the door, Lu Bandit stood silently and did not move for a long time.

Separated by a door, my heart seems to be separated by thousands of rivers and mountains, approaching in a hazy state, but unable to help but escape when I wake up.

The illusion of calmness in the past two days was broken, revealing the alienation and politeness inside.

However, Lu Bandit had no regrets. He never wanted to maintain a superficial friendship with Ye Zhaozhao.He always knew what he wanted.

If he never dares to face it, the wounds he has suffered over the years will never heal. Only by pulling out the thorn can he and Ye Zhaozhao have a future.

The land bandit drove there, but the car stopped moving as soon as it reached an intersection. There was a severe traffic jam in front of it, and there was a long queue of cars.
Most of them are tourists from out of town, and their license plate numbers are from various provinces.

At the current speed, we don’t know when the road will be smooth.

Both sides of the road had been decorated. Ye Zhaozhao hadn't returned to the capital for a long time to celebrate the festival, so he felt novel and leaned on the car window to look outside.

The car backed up,

Ye Zhaozhao: "?"

"not going?"

The land bandit turned the car to another road: "There is a parking lot nearby. Stop the car first."

"Shall we walk there?" Ye Zhaozhao asked doubtfully.

This place is still some distance away from Xihua Street, and it takes an hour to walk to get there.

The bandit opened the car door and protected Ye Zhaozhao's head considerately: "It won't take a long time to take the small road."

"Oh." Ye Zhaozhao stopped talking.

Because she remembered that she and the land bandits discovered this path together.

The street where Jingcheng University is located runs parallel to the bustling Xihua Street.

There was a dormitory dinner party, and several of her roommates went there early, but she was a little late because she went to deliver something to the counselor.
Knowing that she didn't know the way, her roommate sent her the location, so she had to follow the navigation.
The further she walked, the more she felt something was wrong. She was getting farther and farther away from the main street, and seemed to be in a residential area. It was getting late, and she couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Even the ringing of her cell phone startled her. It was a call from a land bandit.

She answered, her voice still trembling: "Land bandit."

"…………………"

The person over there paused and said in a low voice: "Where are you?"

"I...I don't know." Ye Zhaozhao looked around regretfully and did not find a landmark building.

The bandit frowned: "Send me the real-time address."

Only then did Ye Zhaozhao react and send the location.

When the land bandits arrived, the sky had already darkened, a bright moon hung high in the sky, and a gentle breeze passed by. The girl sitting on the stone slab was bored and playing with the fallen leaves under her feet.

In the late autumn weather, Ye Zhaozhao was wearing a ginger sweater, and his face still had a hint of youthfulness as if he had not been out of school. He looked easy to bully.

"Ye Zhaozhao." He stood still and said.

Ye Zhaozhao was still a little confused. He looked up at him. His eyes were cut by autumn water. One was sitting and the other was standing. The moonlight was flowing quietly like quicksand, disturbing everyone's heartbeat.

………………

The memories came to an abrupt end. Ye Zhaozhao looked at the unchanged scenery around him and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Three years, whether it is long or short, many things have changed, but this old residential area still retains its old appearance. Even the sweet-scented osmanthus tree next to the fork in the road is still the same as before.

Passing through the residential buildings, and then walking through a narrow alley, you come to the pedestrian street. Walking forward, you will reach the open Xihua Street, which few people know.

Only one person was allowed to pass through the narrow alley. The bandit's steps were long and he would stop and wait for her after taking a few steps.

Ye Zhaozhao lowered his head. Under the setting sun, the shadow of the land bandits was stretched very long. She was shrouded in the shadow. She blinked slowly and looked up.
Just as the land bandit in front of him turned his head, the two of them caught sight of each other.

Lu Bandit's dark eyes always fell into the sunset, shining brightly, just like the young man who pushed open the wooden door and entered.
