After a long period of heavy rain, it finally stopped.

The tires ran over puddles of water from time to time. The faint sound of running water could be heard in the grass by the road.

The front passenger window was open for a while. Chu Yu felt a little cold.

He had changed out of his rain-soaked clothes and was now wearing the spare clothes that Lu Shi had left in the car. There was a familiar smell of detergent.

Lu Shi saw him rubbing his arms and raising the window. He whispered, "You'll catch a cold."

Zhu Zhifei and Wei Guanglei were still arguing loudly in the backseat about whether the barbecue stall by the river was open or not.

Lu Shi was too lazy to argue. He drove the car directly to the bank of the Qingchuan River.

The water level of the Qingchuan River had risen a lot. The standing street signs were washed clean by the rain.

The riverside was quiet and there was no one around. The rain was too heavy. Even the people fishing at night were nowhere to be seen, let alone the barbecue stall.

Wei Guanglei and Zhu Zhifei squeezed to the side and leaned against the window. They sighed together. "Ah, there's no supper!"

Lu Shi turned the steering wheel with one hand and asked Chu Yu, "What do you want to eat?"

"I don't want to eat anything." Chu Yu thought for a while and said, "I'm a little cold. Something hot will be fine."

"Okay."

The car lights turned on. Lu Shi turned the car around and drove back onto the road.

They parked the car in the garage of the auto repair shop. After a few turns, they finally arrived in front of a small shop.

The door of the shop was very small. There were two pots of aloe vera in brownish-red terracotta pots at the entrance. Next to the pots was a menu board written in red paint.

Two small lights were on in the shop and there were five small square tables.

Lu Shi sat down on a blue plastic stool. He asked Chu Yu, "Is fermented glutinous rice dumpling okay?"

Chu Yu had no objections to eating anything. "Sure."

Wei Guanglei and Zhu Zhifei were already hungry. They ordered all the signature meat dishes.

While waiting for the food, they were so hungry that they even finished an entire plate of peanuts.

Zhu Zhifei rubbed his empty stomach and thought of something. He beamed with joy and said, "By the way, our allies sent us a battle report today!"

Wei Guanglei was pouring himself a cup of tea. "What allies?"

"It's about Guan Yiyang and Fang Mingzhe.

The two of them transferred schools quickly and went to Eleventh High School.

I happen to have a few junior high school classmates who are all in Eleventh High.

When I was on the phone, I accidentally revealed that the two of them worked together to frame the campus belle for cheating and that they stole the test papers to cheat. "

Wei Guanglei helped Zhu Zhifei fill his teacup. "Bro, well done!"

"It's nothing."

Zhu Zhifei adjusted his glasses and said in a more serious tone, "These two people have good grades, but their character is really bad. If they don't learn their lesson, they might do something else to frame others in the future.

Some people were just like that. They never reflected on the terrible things they had done or how badly they had caused others. They thought that by changing schools and patting their butts, they would be able to turn over a new leaf and clean themselves up, acting like a white lotus that had just emerged from the water.

Who knows, they might even slander the victims after they're done. "

Chu Yu said, "Thanks."

Zhu Zhifei touched the back of his head. "You're welcome."

The dishes were served.

Wei Guanglei and Zhu Zhifei had meat in front of them. Lu Shi only asked for a bowl of noodles. Chu Yu had a bowl of glutinous rice dumplings in front of him.

Lu Shi placed her fingers on the sides of the bowl naturally. "It's very hot. Drink it slowly."

"Okay."

Chu Yu held a porcelain spoon and scooped a spoonful of soup. He blew on it before putting it into his mouth.

The heat traveled down his throat to his stomach and warmed up his whole body.

No one spoke while they were eating.

When they put down their chopsticks, Zhu Zhifei looked at Chu Yu. "Oh yes, Campus Belle, are you going back to school tonight?

Or will you go back tomorrow? "

Jia Ning Private School was not strict in this area. They usually did not check on the dormitory.

As long as the roommates did not say anything, no one would know even if they were not at school for the whole night.

Before Chu Yu could say anything, Lu Shi said, "It's too late. You go back home. He'll sleep at my place."

Zhu Zhifei nodded and then said, "Oh yes, Lu Ge, you can't sleep on the sofa in your house, right? Is it crowded for two people to sleep on the 1.8-meter bed?

I have an empty bed at home. Why don't you go back with me, Campus Belle? "

Lu Shi looked up and did not say anything.

Chu Yu quickly said, "It's okay. Uncle and Auntie, I'll stay with Lu Shi."

Zhu Zhifei did not insist. "Okay, that's fine."

Chu Yu went back home with Lu Shi.

After turning on the lights, Lu Shi said, "Aren't you cold? Go take a hot shower first."

Chu Yu had been drenched in the rain. Although he had changed his clothes and his hair was about to dry naturally, his physique was not very good.

To avoid catching a cold tomorrow, Chu Yu went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Chu Yu came out with his wet hair. Just as he was about to dry his hair with the towel he used last time, Lu Shi handed a light blue hair dryer to him.

It was brand new. The wires were still tied together and had not been removed.

The last time he came, he had asked Lu Shi if there was a hair dryer at home. Lu Shi said there was no one at home.

Chu Yu blinked and reached out to take it. "You bought it?"

"Yeah.

Lu Shi answered and walked around Chu Yu to the bathroom.

The bathroom door closed with a soft bang, followed by the sound of the shower running.

The surroundings became quiet. Occasionally, the sound of a car horn could be heard from afar.

The damp air mixed with water vapor flowed into the room through the open window. It was a little cold.

Chu Yu found an outlet in the bedroom and blew his hair dry.

On the track, Lu Shi rolled down the car window to look at him. Then, he inadvertently jumped out of his mind.

After being in a daze for a while, Chu Yu's gaze turned to Lu Shi's desk.

There were a lot of exercise books and a few pieces of white paper piled up on the desk.

Different words were written on the paper with a pencil.

The handwriting was familiar, and each stroke had a sharp edge to it.

Chu Yu read the contents of the top piece of paper in a low voice. "The spring breeze is faint, the clear day is eternal, the fallen heroes are thousands of feet away, the peach and apricot trees are scattered in the suburbs, the clear bees come and go, the fragrance wafts in the air …"

He had studied seriously for half a month, so he was sure that this was not something he had learned before.

Chu Yu picked up the phone next to him and checked it. He found that the name of this poem was "The Slow Moon in West River," which was not included in the textbook.

He changed the words written on the rest of the paper and searched them one by one. He found that the writers were different, but the name of the poem was the same. They were all "The Slow Moon in West River."

Could this be Lu Shi's hobby, or could it be that he simply practiced writing while doing exercises?

Chu Yu did not pay any more attention to this. He unplugged the hairdryer and wrapped the cord around the hairdryer. He started a game and played while waiting for Lu Shi.

However, after playing for less than two minutes, Chu Yu became sleepy. He wrapped himself in a blanket and began to tell himself stories to hypnotize himself.

This was a habit he had developed since he was young.

When he was young, his mother was not at home. His brothers and sisters were studying abroad in boarding schools. They only came back a few times a year.

Every time he turned off the lights, he would close his eyes tightly. However, he would still be too scared to fall asleep.

Slowly, Chu Yu learned to tell himself stories to hypnotize himself.

Just as he was whispering the stories to himself, he suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

Chu Yu carefully opened one eye and glanced at the door. He saw someone standing there.

Lu Shi had just finished showering. He was wearing a loose gray T-shirt. He said with great interest, "Little Turtle Butch heard about this and hurriedly went out to climb a mountain?"

His voice was soft and hoarse. It was very pleasant to the ears. There was even a hint of a smile at the end of his voice. It made people's ears tingle.

Chu Yu realized that he had been exposed. His acting skills instantly reached their peak. His face was full of confusion. "What are you talking about?

What little turtle? "

Lu Shi did not expose him.

Lu Shi lay down on the other side of the bed and turned off the lights. "Are you sleepy?

Go to sleep. "

Chu Yu was furious.

'I can tell!

He must be laughing at me! '

Just as he was about to bite the pillow in embarrassment, Lu Shi's finger reached over and touched the corner of his lips. "Do you want it?"

Chu Yu opened his mouth angrily and bit Lu Shi's fingertip.

The next morning, Chu Yu woke up late.

When he sat up in bed, he was the only one in the room. The sky was already bright outside.

He looked at the time. It was already ten o 'clock.

Chu Yu wrapped himself in the blanket and rolled around on the bed. He stared at the ceiling in a daze for three seconds. He decided to send a message to Zhang Yueshan to ask about the situation.

Zhang Yueshan replied quickly. He asked if Chu Yu was feeling better.

After asking again, he found out that Zhu Zhifei had already applied for leave on his behalf. The reason was that he had caught a cold and had a fever after being drenched in the rain. He went to the hospital and could not come.

Chu Yu instantly calmed down. He threw his phone away and went back to sleep comfortably. Only then did he slowly get out of bed.

Opening the curtains, Chu Yu was blinded by the light outside.

Lu Shi's bedroom window did not face the main street. Instead, it faced the small alley behind Qingchuan Road. It was less noisy.

After closing the window, he could not hear the noise outside.

Chu Yu stretched lazily and hummed a few songs in a good mood. Suddenly, his line of sight stopped —

F * ck. Isn't that Lu Shi downstairs?

In the narrow alley, Lu Shi had his hands in his pockets and was talking to someone.

There were a few people standing opposite him. Chu Yu took a closer look and realized that they were familiar faces — the tattooed men he had met before.

The tattooed men were obviously afraid of Lu Shi. They stood at least three meters away from him.

However, when Chu Yu saw this situation, he tensed up. Wei Guanglei had mentioned that Lu Shi was a good fighter. He was even better at provoking and provoking people.

When he thought about how Lu Shi had been in a bad mood for the past two days and how he had almost gone racing yesterday, Chu Yu felt a little uneasy.

Before he could react, Lu Shi said something, and the tattooed man in red shorts shouted. In the next second, he led his underlings to surround Lu Shi.

"F * ck!"

Chu Yu turned around and ran down the stairs.

He was not familiar with the roads here. After going downstairs, he went in the wrong direction. When he realized that something was wrong, he changed directions and continued running.

When he arrived at the battlefield, half of the tattooed men had already fallen.

There were many people on the other side. Lu Shi's arm was probably hit and he was not very agile.

Qiang Ge really did not want to fight with Lu Shi.

Early in the morning, he led a group of underlings from one end of Qingchuan Road to the other end, collecting protection fees one by one. He was quite happy collecting them and had already thought of where to hang out at night.

After passing through the alley and taking a shortcut, he was about to leave when he unexpectedly bumped into a boy in a school uniform with breakfast in his hand.

A few of his underlings were new. They were a little addicted to collecting protection fees. When they saw that there was no one else with them, they felt that they were easy to bully. They opened their mouth and said, "Hey, who's the one in front? Are you giving your pocket money and breakfast money to me to spend?"

He originally thought that the figure looked familiar, but before he could recall anything, he saw the boy who was called turn around with soy milk and buns.

Qiang Ge held his breath.

What kind of f * cking bad luck was this? How could he bump into a demon like Lu Shi?

Qiang Ge was very traumatized by Lu Shi.

This person was young, but he was very ruthless. Until now, he still remembered that Lu Shi's knee had hit his stomach. The feeling of his intestines almost being torn apart.

But his underlings were watching and he had been called. If he did not do something, as the big brother, he would really lose face.

Qiang Ge began to ponder whether to continue acting cool or retreat quickly.

However, Lu Shi did not give them the chance.

The sound of footsteps approached. Qiang Ge lay on the ground with both hands covering his stomach. He turned his head with difficulty, wanting to ask a passerby to call the police.

Today, Lu Shi was much more ferocious than the last time. His gaze was as if he was dipped in ice dregs, and his entire body was filled with ruthlessness. He wanted to ask, "Who the f * ck provoked you and made you act like a madman?"

But when he saw the person clearly, he did not expect to catch his breath. F * ck, it's that Communist Party member!

It was not the first time that Chu Yu had seen Lu Shi in a fight. He walked around the immobile Qiang Ge and stood beside Lu Shi anxiously. "Are you hurt?"

"I'm fine."

Lu Shi saw that Chu Yu's hair was still in a mess and his clothes were not properly dressed. It was obvious that he had rushed down in a hurry.

"You're awake?"

"Yes, I'm awake. I'm still —"

Chu Yu paused and wrinkled his nose.

He smelled a very bitter smell. It was a little similar to the smell of a big box of Chinese medicine being boiled in a big pot.

Following the smell, Chu Yu turned around and saw a person lying in the corner. The wound that had not healed yet had ruptured, and a lot of blood was flowing out. It was red and eye-catching.

It was the first time that Chu Yu had smelled such a strong bitter smell. He could not help but take a second look at the wound.

The smell was so bitter and unpleasant. It was really rare!

He did not notice that Lu Shi, who was standing behind him, suddenly turned cold and dark when he saw him looking at the blood flowing out of the wound.

Lu Shi could no longer suppress the strong hostility in his heart. He put his hands back into his pockets and took half a step forward. His lips were close to Chu Yu's ear, and his voice was very soft. "Are you smelling his blood?

Chu Yu. "
