While Li Susu was in a daze, the traffic light on the sidewalk had already turned red. Across the busy street, he could vaguely see the tall figure standing out from the crowd on the opposite side of the road.
The next second, Zhou Huaixu was already standing in front of her, greeting her with a smile.
"Li Susu, good morning."
He put his hands in his pockets, looked up at her slightly, and his expression was naturally relaxed.
It was like meeting old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, as if nothing had happened yesterday.
Li Susu had almost no time to think, and smiled at him mechanically. Her eyes involuntarily looked at the man who was waiting for the red light across the street. Unexpectedly, her eyes met his across the air.
As if burned by flames, she withdrew her gaze guiltily, clenched her fingers subconsciously, nodded to Zhou Huaixu and said "Good morning".
Suddenly seeing Li Susu, all the bad emotions from last night were instantly diluted. Zhou Huaixu couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips and said jokingly, "Who are you waiting for? It's not me, is it?"
Hearing this, Li Susu shook her head almost without thinking, but then she realized something was wrong and stammered, "My cousin lives nearby. We just had breakfast together—"
A hint of loss flashed through Zhou Huaixu's heart. For a moment just now, he thought Li Susu was waiting for him.
I wondered if she had suddenly figured it out, or if she knew I was drunk last night and followed me all the way here, deliberately creating this encounter...
He gently patted his head, which felt heavy from the hangover, forcing himself to clear away the unrealistic thoughts in his mind. He smiled and said, "What a coincidence! My cousin also lives nearby."
As he spoke, he turned around and pointed at Bo Junyi who was walking towards him.
"Here, my cousin!"
Watching Bo Junyi walking towards her step by step, Li Susu felt as if her heart was being tightened by a big hand, and even her breathing became difficult.
His face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Zhou Huaixu noticed that her eyes were always on her cousin, and thought that she was shocked by his figure and appearance, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
But she didn't show it on her face. Instead, she smiled and teased, "Isn't my cousin very handsome? My eyes are wide open!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand in front of her eyes.
Li Susu looked away in a daze and whispered, "He's quite handsome."
As he was speaking, Bo Junyi had already walked over.
Noticing that Li Susu's face had changed, he didn't walk too close. He stopped a few meters away from Li Susu, with Zhou Huaixu in between.
Zhou Huaixu turned his head and looked over. "Brother, this is my classmate, Li Susu. She also happens to be going back to school, so you can give us a ride."
Li Susu's heart tightened, and she was about to refuse when she heard Bo Junyi say "hmm" lightly.
After saying that, he got straight into the Cullinan car parked nearby and never looked at Li Susu again.
Li Susu glanced at Bo Junyi who was looking at his phone in the driver's seat. She felt a little uncomfortable thinking that he might be angry because she was too close to another boy.
Ding~
She received a WeChat message on her phone. She clicked it and found it was from Bo Junyi.
"I just remembered that you two are classmates. If you're worried about accidentally running into him, I'll find you another apartment."
The meaning of his words was very clear, he would not reveal his relationship with her in front of Zhou Huaixu.
Li Susu did have concerns in this regard, and since she learned that he had a girl he was pursuing, she had been considering whether to move out.
Although finding another house would cause some trouble to Mr. Bo, by comparison, she did not want to affect Mr. Bo's feelings or even marriage because of living together.
After a moment's hesitation, she replied, "Okay. Thank you, Mr. Bo."
After she put away her phone, Zhou Huaixu asked her to get in the car and opened the back door for her naturally.
Li Susu glanced at Bo Junyi, who was sitting in the driver's seat and looking out the window, and could clearly feel the low pressure on him.
She paused slightly, and after a struggle between her conscience and her conscience, she made up her mind, opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.
Seeing this, Bo Junyi and Zhou Huaixu were both stunned.
There was a faint sense of embarrassment in the air.
Zhou Huaixu slowed down, opened the car door and got in.
It was obvious that she was deliberately avoiding him and would rather get close to a stranger than have close contact with him.
Li Susu glanced at Zhou Huaixu and Bo Junyi, smiled awkwardly, and explained, "I get very carsick, so sitting in the front row will make me feel better."
Zhou Huaixu saw the snacks placed next to him. He didn't care who his cousin bought them for. He tore them open and took out a few bags of pistachios and plums and handed them to Li Susu. "Eat something sour. It can help relieve motion sickness."
Bo Junyi suppressed his lips and gave his cousin a cold look.
Zhou Huaixu's mouth twitched, and he whispered back, "It's just a few bags of snacks. I'll pay you back tenfold someday."
Li Susu saw this and a hint of embarrassment flashed across her face. She quickly pushed the snacks back and said, "Really, no need. I don't have the habit of eating snacks."
These snacks were probably bought by Bo Junyi for another girl. Although they were not valuable, the thought behind them was valuable. She should not pretend to be indifferent and take them for herself.
Zhou Huaixu smiled awkwardly, "You're welcome."
The atmosphere in the carriage was subtle, and Li Susu felt that her heartbeat was particularly clear in the silence.
The scenery outside the window passed by quickly. When the light turned red, Li Susu turned back quietly and happened to meet Bo Junyi's casual gaze. The moment their eyes met, Li Susu quickly avoided it.
Zhou Huaixu's voice came from the back seat, with a touch of casualness and curiosity, "Li Susu, will you still participate in the long-distance running at next month's sports meet?"
