Qin Zichen had already left. Mu Ci was just about to breathe a sigh of relief and then pick up her schoolbag to go outside for a good rub. But before she could do anything else, a remark with a hint of sarcasm came directly from behind, interrupting her train of thought.
"You cry so ugly."
???
What did you say?
Mu Ci was confused. How could there be people on the basketball court at this time? Wasn't Qin Zichen the only one there just now?
Because Mu Ci was immersed in his own thoughts just now, he didn't notice who made the voice just now. Now that he thinks about it carefully, it does sound familiar.
Probably...
Mu Ci turned around and looked over.
In the shadow of the basketball court, where there was only a little light, the boy leaned against the wire mesh of the basketball court, his hands in the pockets of his school uniform pants. The wind blew up his hair, occasionally covering his eyebrows.
Although his school uniform was neatly worn and spotless, no matter how you looked at him, he exuded a sense of casualness, nonchalance, and a bit of ruffianism.
It's the kind of casual and unruly quality that you find in that handsome and clean-cut big boy.
Sure enough, it was Chu Xi!
So why is he here so late?
And... your crying is so ugly? So ugly? So... ugly?
Does this guy know how to talk? No wonder he is the supporting actor. No wonder he can’t find a girlfriend. Haha, even if she wanted to, she wouldn’t be with this guy. She is so angry every day.
There was no crossover with Chu Xi for the time being, so Mu Ci didn't want to pay attention to him and turned around and walked towards the school gate.
Seeing her like this, Chu Xi's eyes dimmed, with a slight regret on his face. He then kicked the wire mesh next to him and followed slowly.
It's so late now. If it weren't for the fact that she is a girl and Song Yushu's goddess (Song Yushu said he doesn't want to take the blame), he would not bother to care about her.
Mu Ci walked slowly in front, and Chu Xi followed closely behind, keeping a safe distance. He tried his best not to make any movement and hide his tracks, intending only to escort Mu Ci home safely.
But often the more you worry about something, the more likely it is to happen. Mu Ci originally thought that he had finally completed a plot and felt very relieved. He planned to find a nearby hotel to reward himself with a good meal, but he didn't expect to meet "Zha Zha" at the corner.
What kind of good luck is this for her?
"Beauty, you are alone. You look like a student. Do you want to play with me?"
"Fuck you, you can play with labor whenever you want? Stop insulting the word "brother". I'm really sick of it!" When encountering these scumbags, of course he can't just go up and provoke them, but Mu Ci is different. Mu Ci has a system, and he has been trained in the special training department of the Time Management Bureau before. Dealing with these little scumbags is no problem at all.
Besides, these scumbags have nothing to do with the plot, so there’s no need to even maintain their personalities. Just curse them for fun first.
"You bitch, you dare to scold us, we will take her clothes off! Let's see if she dares to talk nonsense again!"
Having said that, he was about to attack Mu Ci.
Chu Xi, who had been following Mu Ci before, kept a distance from her in order not to attract her attention. So in the situation just now, he only saw those people trying to harass Mu Ci, but did not hear what Mu Ci said to these people.
When these scums, even when Mu Ci was about to make a move, Chu Xi jumped up, and the way he kicked over was like something out of a comic book, almost flying over and kicking the man who was about to attack Mu Ci to the side, then came to Mu Ci and knocked these people down in a few moves.
Mu Ci didn't even have time to take action, as Chu Xi took care of everything by himself.
His movements were very familiar, with a hard-to-detect ruthlessness, and his eyes were heavy. Mu Ci looked at Chu Xi at this moment, and gradually became like the lonely and ruthless Chu Xi described in the plot, who experienced the breakup of his family and the successive departure of his parents, and finally climbed up the Black Cloud Alley.
For a moment, she even felt a sense of time being mixed. Chu Xi stood in front of her, his back was tall and handsome. She stared at the man in front of her, and couldn't even connect this man with the delicate little boy in her memory and the lazy big boy on campus.
Even though these people were knocked down, it was still not safe here. Chu Xi didn't look back, but grabbed Mu Ci's hand and pulled her to another direction.
We finally stopped when we reached a relatively safe place.
Chu Xi breathed a sigh of relief.
Mu Ci looked at him in surprise. So was he nervous the whole time he walked here?
A similar feeling suddenly crossed his mind, a little uneasy, but also with a hint of excitement. Mu Ci looked at Chu Xi's handsome face and even wanted to pinch it hard.
Realizing that his idea was somewhat dangerous, Mu Ci quickly stopped talking.
Just as he was about to wave goodbye, a very clear stomach growl sounded between the two of them. When Mu Ci heard the sound coming from his stomach, no matter how indifferent he tried, he felt extremely embarrassed for a moment. His face turned slightly red, and his face, which had been frozen pale, finally regained a hint of redness.
Chu Xi chuckled barely perceptibly. The sound was short and low. If Mu Ci hadn't been staring at him, he might not have noticed it.
"Come on, I'll give you a good beating!"
On the other side, in the quiet and empty basketball court, there was a sudden sound of footsteps. The sound was a little hurried, mixed with a slight gasp from a male voice.
"Hey! Student, I told you that you can't enter the school at this time. Except for the boarding students who are staying in the dormitory, most of the others have left. The basketball court is already empty! Why don't you listen, kid?"
It was so dark that the security guard at the back couldn't even see which class the students from suddenly rushed into the school gate and ran towards the basketball court.
The tall boy ran to the basketball court with a stern face and stopped. Seeing that the court was empty without a single person, he suddenly felt a sense of loss in his heart.
The figure I imagined was not there. She must have gone back.
In the way she looked before, he thought she would just stay here stupidly. That's right, the basketball court had to be locked and cleared after all, so how could she just stand here and not leave?
The basketball in the boy's arms fell down.
He looked at the basketball that rolled a few times and then stopped, then frowned again.
So why did he come here this time and what did he want to do? He himself was a little confused about what was going on.
But on the way back, holding the basketball in his arms, he was thinking about the girl who had been waiting for him all night. This was the first time this happened.
Maybe I come here again just to see that wonderful shot again.
On the other hand, Chu Xi had a complicated expression as he watched the person in front of him eating the food on his plate with a satisfied look on his face.
How did he know what this person liked to eat? He had only met this woman a few times, so how did he know so much about what she liked to eat?
"Why don't you eat? Ah, now I remember you don't seem to like these things."
Seeing that Chu Xi hadn't picked up his chopsticks, Mu Ci glanced at the food he had ordered in front of him, and then he remembered that Chu Xi didn't seem to like it.
When she was a child, Chu Xi came to play with her. The two families were good friends and sometimes they would often eat together. Mu Ci remembered that their tastes were exactly opposite when they were children. Her favorite food was exactly what Chu Xi didn't like to eat, because every time she ate, little Chu Xi just looked at her and hardly moved his chopsticks.
“…”
It seems that I was overthinking it. She should have nothing to do with me, otherwise how could she not even know what I like to eat.
Chu Xi glanced at the things he ordered and then started using his chopsticks.
These are all my favorite foods. It’s a rare opportunity for me to come here, and I’m in a good mood. I want to enjoy the food to my heart’s content.
When they had both finished eating, when Chu Xi went to pay the bill, Mu Ci stopped him.
"Let's split the bill!"
"No." Chu Xi rejected him directly without showing any mercy.
Aren't you broke?
Mu Ci was extremely surprised to see him so determined, and almost everything he wanted to say was revealed on his face.
Chu Xi's mouth twitched, and then he explained: "I'll treat you this time, and you treat me next time."
And even if he had no money, he wouldn't be so stingy as to not even pay for a meal for her.
"All right."
Seeing that he couldn't get the upper hand, Mu Ci had to give up.
After leaving the hotel, Mu Ci planned to take a taxi home. Chu Xi called a taxi for her, and then after Mu Ci got in, he got in too.
"What are you doing?"
She remembered that Black Cloud Lane was probably not in the same direction as her.
"Take you home."
Chu Xi said it as a matter of course.
"But we should go south and north respectively. If you really want to send me there, I will have to run back and forth. It will be too troublesome. I can go back by myself. You go now."
Mu Ci said this and was about to chase him away.
"Where is your home?"
Mu Ci gave an address, but Chu Xi ignored her and said directly to the driver in the front seat: "Master, drive."
"???"
So this guy didn't take what she said seriously at all?
The car drove steadily towards the destination. Chu Xi glanced at Mu Ci, then turned his head, closed his eyes and began to rest.
Seeing him looking like he deserved a beating, Mu Ci felt so angry that he had no where to vent. In the end, he gave up and didn't say anything more.
A rare moment of leisure and comfort along the way.
When the car shakily arrived at the door of Mu Ci's house, Su's father and mother were seen standing at the door waiting from a distance.
"Don't come down to see me off later, my parents are right there. Be careful on your way back, and send me a message when you get home. My WeChat ID is 137****0609. Let's go."
After Mu Ci and Chu Xi finished their instructions, they opened the door and got out as soon as the car stopped.
But what she didn't expect was that when the car just heard the sound from the side, Su's father and mother hurried over and stood next to the taxi.
Then... I saw Chu Xi in the back seat of the car, next to Mu Ci.
Su's mother's eyes lit up, and she stared at Chu Xi, who was sitting inside and looked a little uneasy and restrained, and then blurted out.
"Xiao Xi? Did you bring Xiao Ci here?"
The author has something to say: The third update is here! I have reached the 10,000-word mark today, hehehe~
?(?'ω'?)??get!
Hey, Su's mother recognized her future son-in-law! Why?
Now that it has come to this, it won’t be long before Chu Xi remembers Mu Ci! (*^▽^*)
