Chapter 98: Escape



Lu Siying really didn’t think there was anything wrong. Her parents just didn’t find a blind date for her during this period. Don’t you think everything is weird?

She had no choice but to say awkwardly: "Mom and Dad, you should eat quickly. I'm really fine. Don't think too much about it."

Huang Yueya wanted to ask a few more questions, but Lu Siying had already quickly finished his bowl of rice, put down his chopsticks and said, "Mom and Dad, I'm done. I have something else to do and I have to leave first. You guys take your time eating."

The meal was only served half an hour ago, and it was just past six o'clock. Lu Siying didn't have to go back to the army, so what else did she have to do?

Could it be that his family discovered something and he felt embarrassed to stay, so he made up an excuse to leave?

No one took it seriously. After all, everyone lived in the same compound and would see each other every day. There would always be a chance to find out.

Huang Yueya took two bites of food and suddenly asked, "Weiwei, the man you just mentioned is the one who bought the jewelry for Xiaoying. Do you remember what he looks like?"

Bai Wei tried to recall and said, "He's quite tall, probably over 1.8 meters, and he looks gentle and refined. The key is that he's very good-looking, handsome and elegant."

No one expected that Lu Siying liked this type of person. No wonder all the blind dates before had no results.

All the people they are looking for are children who grew up in the army. They may be good at martial arts, but not necessarily at literature.

Lu Siying is already a team leader at a young age. Although her blind date partners are a few years older than her, most of them have lower positions than her. The only one who has a higher position than her thinks that Lu Siying is too strong and is not suitable to be a wife, but is more suitable to be a brother, just like other men.

So this is probably the reason why Lu Siying is still single.

Lu Siying, who had already left, had no idea that her family would actually talk about this matter for the entire night.

After leaving the hotel, Lu Siying went directly to the entrance of Murphy Mansion.

The people who live in this mansion are either rich or noble. Lu Siying doesn't know much about this, but he can get a clue just by looking at the decoration outside.

Lu Siying said: "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Zhuo Sicheng had indeed been standing there for a long time. The two of them had agreed to go to the movies at 6:30, and he had been waiting since 6 o'clock. He was happy every second of the wait.

"No, I just got here too."

Zhuo Sicheng moved his stiff fingers and asked, "Are you cold? Why are you wearing so little? Why don't you wear my coat?"

"No, I'm not cold."

"What do you want to do after the movie? Go get a midnight snack?"

"It's still early, and the movie is only an hour long. We can have dinner next time."

The two chatted as they walked, laughing all the way, and looked very relaxed.

Standing in the cinema, Zhuo Sicheng asked her to wait there with her ticket while he went to buy snacks and hot juice.

Lu Siying followed him with her eyes, and her mind couldn't help but think of the questions her parents asked during dinner.

Is she really dating?

No, Lu Siying was sure.

The first time, she helped catch a thief and recovered his stolen wallet, and he was very grateful.

The second time, he fell off his bike and his test papers flew all over the place. Before she could help, a kind passerby had already picked them up. When Lu Siying left, she did not notice that a pair of eyes had been staring at her for a long time.

Their true acquaintance should have started on the day before the Chinese New Year.

The cold wind was howling and people were hurrying on the street. When Lu Siying passed by the alley, he suddenly heard someone shouting in a yard.

She looked up and saw a little boy of four or five years old with half of his body hanging outside the window on the fifth floor. There were many people gathered downstairs, and someone was shouting for people to get a bed sheet to cover him.

At this time, the window of the neighbor's house opened, and a gentle man climbed out of the window and carefully approached the window where the boy was.

Lu Siying's pupils shrank and she rushed upstairs without thinking.

The people from 506 households went out to buy groceries, and the children at home woke up and played by the window, and accidentally fell out.

There was no adult at home and the person outside did not open the door. When the people downstairs found out, they went to the adjacent room 505.

However, the distance between the windows was quite long, and while they were discussing, the child in Room 506 slid out for another distance and now had only his hands holding onto the security railing above his head.

If you want to save the child, you must first choose someone with a thinner body, otherwise you won’t be able to squeeze through. Also, this is the fifth floor. If you are not careful and something happens, you might even lose your life.

Everyone was talking at once, but Zhuo Sicheng couldn't wait any longer. Seeing that the little boy was about to fall, he climbed directly onto the air conditioner unit outside the window.

After successfully climbing over, the child was temporarily safe, but now they were faced with the situation that Zhuo Sicheng and the child were both hanging outside.

At this moment, Lu Siying came up.

Ignoring others' advice, Lu Siying was agile and quickly brought the two people, one adult and one child, back to the room safely.

In the room, the child's parents had rushed back and were holding their child and crying. There were also neighbors praising them for their bravery. For a moment, there were people crying and laughing.

In the noisy room, Zhuo Sicheng stared at Lu Siying with warm eyes for a long time before bowing: "Thank you, this is the second time you have helped me."

This was their third interaction, and it was still an extraordinary encounter, for it was only this time that they actually exchanged names and got to know each other.

Although Zhuo Sicheng is thin, he has a warm heart. Even though he still needs help sometimes, he will step forward without hesitation when others need help.

Lu Siying admired him very much, and Zhuo Sicheng was also very grateful to the man who helped him once and saved him again, so he often gave him some inexpensive but thoughtful small gifts.

For example, a box of chocolate Yuanxiao sent by relatives and a bracelet he personally selected.

Later, Zhuo Sicheng accidentally found out Lu Siying's working hours and home address, and often asked her out to play.

Eating, watching movies, etc.

His thoughts became more and more obvious, but a certain woman just didn't understand.

After buying the snacks, Zhuo Sicheng turned around and looked at Lu Siying. His face was handsome and gentle, and the smile on his lips never stopped.

Across the crowd, Lu Siying's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

She really doesn't seem to reject Zhuo Sicheng.

It’s not like she hasn’t met good-looking men on blind dates in the past, but she always felt that the magnetic field wasn’t right, or that she had no feeling for them. Even when she walked with the blind date man after dinner or got a little closer to him, she felt uncomfortable.

But during the days they spent together with Zhuo Sicheng, the two of them became closer and closer.

Although Zhuo Sicheng looked frail and was not her initial criterion for choosing a partner, Lu Siying felt that it was easy to be with him. He was a very nice person and she did not think that her personality was too masculine.
