"Yeah yeah."

"Tsk." Wan Qing smacked her lips, somewhat unable to bear this 'warmth' scene.

She has always disbelieved in movies and novels that a few words can enter the hearts of others. She always thinks it is too fake. There is no such thing in reality. If words are useful, why do you need the law?

Zhao Jinyu's figure was very well-proportioned. Compared with her, Li Wanyan who was walking beside her was no longer petite, but skinny.

She was half a head shorter than Wan Qing, and her whole body was skinny, like a walking skeleton, without any sense of beauty at all.

The hair is also very rough and drooping, and it seems that there has been no nutritional intake.

As she walked, she tied her hair up into a simple and capable single ponytail.

The only thing that is still alive is probably her eyes.

It's just that it seems that he is about to be numb by this life.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, and the four of them didn't say a word.

When I walked to the side of the road, I felt something was missing.

Wan Qing turned her head and looked at it for a long time, then cursed angrily, "Where's my fucking car!?"

"...the car, where is the car?"

"It's gone." Zhao Jinyu looked down at a brick on the side of the road, which was her landmark, "It was parked here before."

"Ah...I...I..." Ye Chen swallowed the word 'grass' abruptly, "Stolen!"

"Damn it." Wan Qing scolded directly.

"Someone stole our car? Then we should call the police."

"Calling the police is useless..."

"Wanwan seems a little irritable today."

"... Phew." She took a deep breath, "It's useless, who knows who stole it, after they transported the car away and sold it to another city, we can't get it back at all."

"Then you can't just give up like this, can you?" Ye Chen looked distressed, "My car can still be ridden..."

"Sure enough, you should go to the police, right?" Zhao Jinyu looked serious.

"Forget it, today—let's take care of this little girl first." Wan Qing waved her hands lazily, "At least it's not a waste of energy to help her."

"Then what should we do when we go to school tomorrow?" Ye Chen scratched his head anxiously, "Have we all taken the bus from now on?"

"I'll take a taxi tomorrow and take you with me. This time, it's because I saw it that I..."

"Jinyu, it was Ye Chen who said to go and have a look, and it's not your fault."

"Hey, do you mean my fault?"

"That's not it?"

"Okay, okay, don't quarrel today..." Zhao Jinyu put his hands on the shoulders of the two, "If you can't find it, I'll ask my dad to buy one for you too, when the time comes."

"That's so embarrassing...it's not your fault." Ye Chen hurriedly shook his head.

"Yeah, there's no need to do this, Jinyu." Wan Qing looked at her seriously, "It's wrong to take care of other people's emotions."

Ye Chen was a little embarrassed, because she always felt that this was aimed at Li Wanyan.

Li Wanyan didn't speak, but just looked straight ahead.

The road keeps winding forward, and a small uphill seems to lead to the starry sky.

Wan Qing hung the backpack on Ye Chen and walked in front with ease.

Father's supper stall has been set up, and business seems to be much better today. When they arrived, he was busy, and two tables were set up. A man with black and white beard, about 50 years old, He was lowering his head and scooping up the ginger egg on the plate with a spoon.

This dish is sweet, and most people are not used to it, but he tastes it very delicious.

"I'm back." Father had just handed out the wrapped cake, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Wan Qing who was walking in front, "Eat now or later?"

Before Wan Qing could answer, Ye Chen ran over in a panic, as if pleading guilty: "Dad! Our bicycle was stolen by the side of the road!"

"Huh? What was stolen?"

"bike!"

"Oh... If you steal it, just steal it. There's nothing you can do about it. Besides, it's an old car. It's better to go to Lao Zhao's to buy a second-hand one another day. It's cheaper there."

"He also sells bicycles there?"

"Say hello in advance, just ask him to get two from his friends, um - you should each have one."

"no problem?"

"It's okay, I'm making money, right?" The father smiled in relief, his eyes fell on Zhao Jinyu, and then on the skinny girl.

"Hi uncle, this is... our new friend, bring her to eat something."

"Okay, what do you want to eat?"

"Well—but Uncle, I'm going to pay this time."

"What are you doing? What are you paying for? I haven't paid you for your tutoring for the two of them."

"Uh, Jinyu, don't be so cynical, you don't need to give it..."

"Well, there's no need to be polite about this kind of thing." It was rare for Wan Qing to agree with Ye Chen.

"Then...I want to eat seafood fried rice today, how about politely?" Zhao Jinyu asked very familiarly.

"...It's all good." She was a little uneasy, "I don't have any money..."

"It's free, just order whatever you want to eat." Ye Chen said kindly - Wan Qing felt that this expression didn't suit her.

She opened her eyes wide, but she didn't speak for a long time.

Wan Qing got a little impatient waiting: "Father! Give her a cake with soaked shrimp! Just like me."

"Ah, I'm the same as Wan Qing."

Li Wanyan's slightly opened mouth closed again.

Today's stall has no seats, so I can only take it home to eat.

When she went back, Zhao Jinyu bought a big bag of drinks and snacks in the canteen downstairs—now Ye Chen knew how she spent so much money in a month.

Just the snacks and drinks here cost fifty in one go.

And I haven't bought much, because all I bought were imported products, no matter how bad they were, they were very high-end brand products in this era.

The meal is at Zhao Jinyu's home.

The main reason is that her table is big enough and spacious enough for four people to eat without being crowded.

Li Wanyan seemed to be walking into this kind of apartment for the first time. At the beginning, she was still hesitant standing at the door, but when Wanqing called her impatiently, she walked in slowly.

Even if it's just an ordinary elevator, she has observed those glowing buttons for a long time.

"Please come in~" Zhao Jinyu pushed open the door and shouted to everyone happily. She stood at the door, looking at the clean and bright house, a little dazed.

"Come in? Wanyan, what's the matter?"

She first looked inside vigilantly a few more times, then looked around, and then walked into the house cautiously.

After realizing that there was indeed no one in the room, he relaxed a little.

"If you don't mind today, you can stay here overnight. There is hot water! My clothes may be a little too big for you, but it should be fine to wear as pajamas." Zhao Jinyu was still very enthusiastic.

She is always warm to many people.

She was always kind to a lot of people.

Living in a comfortable and relaxed family can form such a character.

"Ye Chen, you can't be so naive as Jin Yu."

"what?"

"People's hearts are much more sinister than you think." Wan Qing lowered her voice, as if she didn't want Zhao Jinyu to hear her.

"...How sinister can a little girl be."

"What if it's a fairy jumping? Or in fact, she's a thief or something."

"...The price is too high, the wound is not fake."

"In short, don't trust others too much."

"...Okay, okay." Ye Chen replied perfunctorily, obviously not listening at all.

In fact, he never felt that what Wan Qing said was right—even if she came from the future.

The dinner gradually became lively, and the little girl still didn't participate in their conversation, but just observed the expressions on their faces curiously from time to time.

Moreover, she has no intention of spending the night here.

After everyone finished eating, she took the initiative to say goodbye: "Thank you...I'm leaving."

"Hey, where are you going now? It's so cold outside? If you don't go home, why don't you spend the night with me?"

"……No thanks."

Zhao Jinyu hesitated for a while, but still didn't say anything: "Then, are you careful alone? By the way, I'll give you the five yuan, just in case you need it."

"……Need not."

"Take it, take it!" She stuffed the five-dollar bill into her pocket without any explanation, and watched her go out, "Do you know how to take the elevator?"

"Ah."

"Be careful alone."

"...Okay, thank you." This thank you is no longer cold, but with a bit of sincerity and sincerity.

"If you encounter any difficulties next time, you can come here to find us again." Ye Chen also said.

Wan Qing sneered, didn't say goodbye to her, just looked at the street downstairs with her chin resting on her hands.

"Wan Qing, did you take gunpowder today? Why are you so aggressive." Ye Chen turned around and said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"It's okay, I know that Wanwan is a tofu heart with a knife's mouth." Zhao Jinyu pursed his lips and smiled, and put a can of milk soaked in boiling water on the window sill in front of her.

"What I say is what I think, and what I say and what I do."

"Okay, okay." She patted Yi on the back lightly, as if she was smoothing the fur of a cat that had exploded.

Ye Chen rolled his eyes, and then lay down beside the window, and the three fell into an inexplicable silence.

It took a long time before they saw the scarred girl walk out of the apartment alone.

——She probably didn't learn how to take the elevator, so she probably went down the stairs.

……

13. Mom's Words

It was late at night, and Wan Qing was already lying on the bed. She stared blankly at the ceiling without seeing anything, but just turned on the radio and listened leisurely.

She listened to the car radio, the kind that would broadcast real-time traffic conditions, and she liked it in the past, and she still likes it now.

Especially when you squint your eyes, let the breeze blow gently outside the window, and with the sweet voice of the hostess on the radio, you will feel as if you are sitting in a car and embarking on a journey without a destination. journey.

"Okay, I received a call from a loyal listener, saying that there was an accident at the intersection of Desheng Road to Desheng Middle Road, and Dongxin Road. It seemed that two cars collided. The police haven't arrived yet, but the intersection has been completely blocked. Friends who pass this road, please detour to other roads.

"For the specific situation, we will consult the traffic police who rushed to the scene in detail, and play a song "Snowdrift" by Priscilla Chan. We will take a short rest and be right back."

The radio made a little '呲啦啦' sound, and the sound coming through the radio was a little fuzzy.

Wan Qing felt as if she had entered a tunnel and was leaving the city, so the signal of the radio station gradually faded away.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the crescent-shaped bright moon in the sky.

Although it is only a small, thin and curved spot, it can still cast the cold moonlight into the room without the lights on.

Every time a car drove by with its bright headlights on the street below, light and shadows would play on the ceiling.

The starry sky seemed to be very close to her, as if she could touch it by raising her hand, and even made the moon appear a little bigger.

It took so long to get used to it, but she always felt that the moon was bigger than she remembered.
