the next day.

Chen Lusi struggled to get up from the sofa, fumbled for his phone, and found that Lin Wan had sent him a dozen emoticons and a dozen 'traitor' messages early in the morning.

Inference based on past experience.

She had to go on for at least five days to get over it.

So Chen Lusi simply blocked her temporarily.

"It's clean."

Chen Lusi yawned, put down the phone, and went to wash up.

And when he came out of the bathroom, he picked up the phone again.

really.

Seeing that the chat software is not working.

Lin Wan started bombarding him with text messages.

Chen Lusi did not add her mobile phone number to the blacklist. After all, he was worried that he would not be able to contact her if there was an emergency. He just muted his phone to text messages, put it in his pocket, and chose not to read it.

then.

Chen Lusi looked at the time and found that it was almost nine o'clock, so he left the house Lin Ying rented.

Today he made an appointment with Wu You and Xia Panqiu to practice the techniques.

I don’t know if it’s because Qinyuanhefu is a special community.

It's obviously the morning rush hour.

After Chen Lusi walked out of the door, he didn't meet anyone alive.

I didn’t even see an old lady walking...

Walk all the way to the elevator.

Chen Lusi pressed the button, then looked at the empty corridor, frowning slightly, a little suspicious that there were no ordinary people in this community at all.

Ding--

The sound of the elevator arriving sounded.

Chen Lusi came back to her senses and was about to walk into the elevator bridge when she heard a soft 'ah'.

In the elevator.

Xia Panqiu leaned against the wall of the compartment, raised her head slightly, and looked at Chen Lusi, a little surprised.

Chen Lusi paused, also a little surprised.

He didn't expect that the first person he met early in the morning would be Xia Panqiu.

"morning."

Chen Lusi looked at her and took the lead in saying hello.

"morning……"

Xia Panqiu changed into a short white T-shirt today, which was simple to fit and durable at the same time. Her lower body was still blue jeans. Although she was not tall, the tight jeans fit her thigh curve perfectly. Her round and toned legs were modified to be particularly bright and eye-catching, giving her a girl-next-door feel.

White T-shirt, jeans, white canvas shoes.

Young, clean and beautiful.

It really fits all the good words.

It's just... I don't know if it's an illusion, but Chen Lusi always feels that the girl in front of him has changed a lot in recent times.

At least it has changed a lot compared to when we first met.

But what exactly has changed...

Chen Lusi couldn't figure it out...it was quite strange.

"Do you live here?"

Chen Lusi noticed that Xia Panqiu was looking at him, so he immediately put all the unnecessary thoughts behind him, walked into the elevator, and asked at the same time.

"Um."

Xia Panqiu nodded slightly: "You too?"

Chen Lusi shook his head and replied, "No, I'm staying at Lin Ying's house temporarily."

"That's it."

Xia Panqiu responded softly, and then quietly moved to the corner, as if she wanted to make room for Chen Lusi.

Although Chen Lusi punched her yesterday.

The two chatted openly.

But in the final analysis, the two have not known each other for a long time.

Even if we meet by chance, there will still be a sense of distance.

In fact, Chen Lusi and Wu You also have a sense of distance, but the latter often uses his neck to eliminate the sense of distance, so it is not obvious.

But this kind of operation is obviously not suitable for Xia Panqiu.

So after a brief conversation, the two fell silent.

The elevator soon reached the first floor.

Chen Lusi walked out, then slowed down her pace. After Xia Panqiu also walked out, she walked side by side to the exit of the community.

But the two remained silent and did not talk much.

Xia Panqiu didn't know what to say.

Chen Lusi was thinking.

"I see."

Just as the two walked out of the community.

Chen Lusi suddenly spoke out and turned to look at Xia Panqiu.

"Huh?" Xia Panqiu raised her head slightly, a little confused.

"Your changes... I think you have changed a lot these days compared to before."

Chen Lusi explained: "But I haven't been able to figure out what has changed. It wasn't until just now that I realized that you are not wearing glasses...you are really not suitable for round-framed glasses. This is much better. It looks good."

"..."

Xia Panqiu was startled for a moment, then slowly lowered her head, reached out to brush her pretty short hair on the side of her face, and said softly: "Thank you."

"Wearing contact lenses?"

"No, I'm actually not short-sighted..."

"It's just decoration...but it's normal when you think about it. You are so young, and Wu You doesn't seem to be the kind of person who can keep a straight face. It's really normal to want to calm down newcomers and make yourself look more mature. Thoughts... But in fact, there is no need to do this. As long as you show that you know more than the newcomers, it will be enough to suppress them."

Chen Lusi smiled and said, "This is my experience."

"Um……"

Xia Panqiu's steps began to slow down unconsciously, falling behind Chen Lusi, and responded again.

But before she could even utter the last word, she bumped into Chen Lusi's back.

Because Chen Lusi suddenly stopped.

"……do you know?"

Chen Lusi suddenly turned around, looked at her, and pointed ahead.

Xia Panqiu looked up.

not far away.

On the landscaped road outside the community, an old lady with silver hair was sitting on the ground, throwing a tantrum like a child.

The two real children, who looked to be only seven or eight years old, stood beside the old lady, holding the old lady's hands respectively, trying to pull the other up.

"I'm not beautiful anymore...he doesn't want me anymore..."

A faint voice came.

Xia Panqiu was slightly startled, then continued: "I don't know him, this is..."

"Maybe it's Alzheimer's."

Chen Lusi replied, and then asked: "Have you never met them?"

"No..." Xia Panqiu shook his head gently.

"Then go and have a look."

Chen Lu thought for a while, then took another step towards the old lady.

Seeing strangers approaching.

The two seven or eight-year-old little girls seemed a little shy. They no longer forced the old lady to stand up, but moved aside to let Chen Lusi and Xia Panqiu pass.

But Chen Lusi did not go over, but stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"

The two little girls looked at each other, as if they were embarrassed to say it.

On the contrary, the old lady sat on the ground, looked at Chen Lusi, and continued to murmur: "I'm not beautiful anymore... He doesn't want me anymore... He will not want me anymore..."

Chen Lusi looked at her appearance and confirmed that this was Alzheimer's disease.

"Where are your parents?"

He looked at the two little girls again and asked.

The two little girls lowered their heads and remained silent, as if they were very afraid of strangers.

Chen Lusi had no choice but to squat down and look at the murmuring old lady: "You are very beautiful."

The old lady was stunned, then immediately stopped mumbling and looked at Chen Lusi blankly.

Chen Lusi repeated: "You are very beautiful, don't be afraid, get up first."

"Really?" the old lady asked tremblingly.

"Yeah." Chen Lusi nodded.

"puff……"

The two little girls seemed to be amused by Chen Lusi's words.

The old lady stayed where she was, suddenly motionless.

Chen Lusi glanced at them, stood up, and was about to ask Xia Panqiu to call the police.

But Xia Panqiu suddenly held his hand.

Chen Lusi looked at her with some doubts.

Xia Panqiu's pretty little face was full of solemnity. While pulling him back, she whispered: "He's not a human being."

"?"

Chen Lusi was stunned for a moment and immediately turned around.

"I am beautiful……"

The old lady sitting on the ground seemed to finally react. She stood up, grabbed the two little girls who were still snickering, looked at Chen Lusi, murmured softly, smiled, and then disappeared directly.

Chen Lusi: "..."

"A legend has actually been activated in the hinterland of a big city."

Xia Panqiu held Chen Lusi's hand gradually harder and said in disbelief: "How is this possible..."
