At eight o'clock in the morning, at the southern outer ring of the suburbs.
In the distance, a purple shadow approached from afar. The petite figure carried a small backpack and ran with small steps.
"Lulu, have you been waiting for a long time?"
Xuan Si saw Lu Lu standing under the tree and looking around. She quickened her pace and ran over. He was so tired that he placed his hands on his knees and panted heavily.
"What took you so long?" Lulu heard a familiar and pleasant female voice. She helped Xuan Si up and patted her back to help her breathe.
" This place is too far away…" Xuan Si was out of breath as she spoke.
Her home was in the city, and this was the suburbs, south of the city…It would take nearly two hours to take a taxi. Moreover, because she was in a hurry, she could not wait for a taxi at all, so she had to find a bus. The most infuriating thing was that the bus didn't go straight to this place. After getting off the bus, she ran here!
Lu Lu felt her heart ache when she saw this. If she had known earlier, she would have gone to pick her up. However, saying this now was equivalent to saying nonsense.
He took out a cup of water from his bag and handed it to Xuan Si, patting her back gently.""Drink some water, slow down, don't choke.”
Xuan Si took a sip of water and said,""Why did you call me here so early?”
After the party ended, Xuan Si finally packed up everything and returned to the apartment to catch up on her sleep. Just as she closed her eyes and was about to fall asleep, her phone rang. It was Lu Lu, asking her to go to the South Outer Ring.
Xuan Si put on a random set of clothes, greeted Dongfang Yi Mian, and then came out. He hadn't seen Lu Lu for a long time, and he really missed her.
Lu Lu had changed a little. She looked a little tired and had lost a lot of weight.
"Lulu, what have you done? You seem to have become much more haggard."
Lu Lu touched her face and looked at the loose clothes. She seemed to have lost weight. She smiled indifferently."This period of time has been quite tough, and it will be even harder in the next few days.”
Lulu's eyes swept across her thoughts. There was a hidden meaning in her words.
"Oh right, you haven't told me what it is.”Xuan Si took another sip of water before she could catch her breath.
What was it?
An apologetic look appeared in the corner of Lulu's eyes. She had only received Yan Si's order to supervise Xuan Si. But how was she supposed to tell this silly little girl, Xuan Si, this?
Xuan Si trusted her so much, but she was going to betray her?
"What else could it be? The singer you said you liked the most has released a new album. Let's go and take a look!" Lu Lu took out a poster and excitedly hugged Xuan Si as she spun around.
Xuan Si perked up when she heard the record."Really, I haven't had a new album in a long time!”
"There's a shop over there. It's authentic and worth the money!”Lu Lu pointed to the south, her voice a little hesitant.
Xuan Si looked at where Lu Lu was pointing and frowned."There's a shop over there? Lulu, we're in the outer ring now. It'll be too remote if we go any further.”
Lu Lu turned her head and put on a kind face. She almost coaxed,"I always go to that shop. It's cheap because it's remote. Think about it, the shops in the city have to charge water, electricity, property management fees, management fees, shop rent, and…"
"Alright, alright, alright! I'll go with you. Don't say anymore. I'm getting a headache!”Xuan Si felt dizzy listening to this. She hated these messy things the most.
"Then let's go!"
"Okay, okay, okay. I'll walk by myself. Lulu, don't pull me. I can't run anymore…"
Xuan Si hadn't rested yet. Lu Lu pulled Xuan Si up and ran as if she was afraid of missing something, almost knocking over a little girl.
Meng Xuansi took deep breaths and took a heavy step forward, but her heart was beating fast. Why did he feel that Lulu was acting weird today?
Lu Lu ran in front, and Xuan Si couldn't see her hesitant and conflicted face. If he went any further, he would be out of the outer ring. Did he really have to bring Xuan Si along?
"Lulu…I can't…I can't run anymore! " Huff huff…" Xuan Si couldn't run anymore. She squatted down and held her chest. Her lungs hurt badly, and her face was red and blue.
Lu Lu didn't seem to have changed much. She stopped thinking and looked at an intersection in front of her.
Xuan Si took out a tissue and handed it to Lulu.
Lu Lu didn't take it. She was in a daze and didn't notice it. She kept looking at the intersection with her deep eyes. There was no one there. Even the shops were closed and the windows were locked. It gave people the feeling that there was a gust of cold wind. It was creepy and chilling.
Seeing that no one took the tissue in her hand, Xuan Si stood up with difficulty. Panting heavily, she reached out and wiped a drop of sweat off Lulu's ear with the tissue."Look at you sweating so much. Here, wipe it."
Xuan Si handed Lu Lu a clean tissue.
Lu Lu looked at Xuan Si in a daze and slowly took the tissue. She lowered her head, not daring to look at Xuan Si, and wiped her sweat alone.
"What's the name of that shop? Why didn't I see it?" Xuan Si stood on the sidewalk, panting and looking around. Other than the tight security nets on the doors and windows, there was only a wide, empty road. It looked like no one was living there, and it didn't seem like there was a shop running it.
"Lulu?" Xuan Si turned around and shouted when she didn't get a reply.
Lu Lu suddenly came back to her senses and stammered to hide something."Uh…it's called…it's called super cool music!”
Xuan Si seemed to have understood something and nodded." Oh…"
However, he had many questions in his heart. Was there such a shop? Would records be sold in such a remote place? Why was there not even half a person here?
Lu Lu was in a daze and did not notice that she was talking. " What happened?" Lulu was absent-minded. A strange feeling spread in her heart, and the hairs on her back stood up unconsciously…What happened today?
"When you called this morning, I thought you were in trouble, so I came out to look for you. Now that you're fine, I feel so sleepy.”Xuan Si yawned, her eyelids still drowsy.
Only then did Lu Lu realize that Xuan Si's fair face had a pair of obvious dark circles under her eyes. Her face was haggard and pale. She probably didn't sleep well.
Her heart softened, and a wave of guilt slowly corroded her heart.
"Why are there dark circles under your eyes?" He caressed Xuan Si's haggard face with some heartache. Did she disturb her sleep?
"Yiliang said yesterday was Silver Valentine's Day. I called my classmates and had a party in the garden below the apartment.”She thought of the night of revelry, as if she had not had enough. She was a little excited, but her eyelids were still drooping.
Lu Lu held her breath. Xuan Si had been partying all night last night. She had just fallen asleep when she called…She hadn't slept all night and had even run so far away for such a small matter. Almost instantly, her brain short-circuited. The air around her was sucked dry by Xuan Si's words, and a drop of the crystallization of friendship squeezed out of Lu Lu's hard heart.
She had never known that someone cared so much about her. At this moment, a mushroom cloud of friendship had already ignited in her heart.
When Xuan Si saw that Lu Lu did not say anything, and the expression on her face did not match Happy's, she quickly explained,""Lulu, I'm sorry. I wanted to call you. But you also know that Shangguan, Yi Liang, and Yi Mian don't know you, so I discussed it with them and didn't inform you…Next time, I'll definitely call you, okay?”
Lu Lu snorted and laughed lightly."Silly, I'm not angry because of this.”
Xuan Si was suspicious." Then why? I can't tell that you're happy."”
"It's nothing." Lu Lu said lightly.
Of course she wasn't happy. She had lied to Xuansi, so how could she be happy? Also…Xuansi didn't know that she was actually old acquaintances with Shangguan, Gu Yiliang, and Dongfang Yimian!
"Lulu, I've been looking for a long time, but there's no business here. Is there a mistake?”
"Hmm, maybe…I made a mistake?”Lu Lu stuttered as if she had something to say but couldn't. She choked up and panicked.
In a corner, a pair of icy-cold eyes glared at him. Lu Lu suddenly looked over in shock. When she met his eyes, her heart turned cold.
Guilt instantly became dispensable. She gritted her teeth and made up her mind…
"Then let's go back. This place makes me feel uncomfortable.”
"That shop is just ahead!" Lu Lu pointed at a dark alley across the road.
Xuan Si saw a very narrow alley in front of him. It was pitch black inside, and the worst thing was that it looked like the entrance to hell…。
However, when she thought about how the singer she admired had released a new album and Lu Lu was still by her side, Xuan Si threw away her worries and walked to the road. As she walked, she called out to Lu Lu,"Then let's go, hurry up and go back. There's a bad feeling here…"
Upon hearing Xuan Si's words, You Lulu stole a glance at the pair of eyes in the corner. She stood still, as if waiting for something…Her eyes were filled with unpredictable fear and panic.
" Lu Lu, hurry up and come over…" Xuan Si did not hear the footsteps behind her. She turned around and found Lu Lu standing by the roadside with no intention of coming over. He couldn't help but frown in confusion.
Before Lu Lu could reply and Xuan Si could react, a series of sounds came from not far away in the west. It was like the sound of an engine. The speed was very fast, and the sound was getting closer and closer.
Lulu clenched her fists tightly, her knuckles pale and her nails deeply embedded in her pink flesh! He gritted his teeth!
The high-end Cadillac was speeding toward the middle of the road without any intention of stopping. The driver stared at Meng Xuansi, who had completely lost her ability to think, in the middle of the road. He gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands, and he couldn't even differentiate between the accelerator and the brakes.
When the car's body was completely visible, it was already too late for Xuan Si to dodge…
At this moment, she was at the center of the crossroad. No matter which direction she ran in, she could not hide anymore…
"Ahhh…!"
