When Chu Yu came out of the police station, he had a transparent plastic bag in his hand. The bag was filled with fruit candies that the female police officer had forced into it. The bag was full of colorful fruit candies.

He chose a raspberry flavored one, peeled off the candy wrapper, and put it in his mouth. Chu Yu thought of something and turned to ask Lu Shi, who was standing next to him, "That … classmate, candy, do you want it?"

He looked at Lu Shi and felt a little scared. He felt that the person in front of him was even scarier than the row of flowery arms squatting in the police station.

The wind was strong and the weather was very hot. Lu Shi was impatient. He looked at the watch on his left wrist and refused, "No, I'm leaving first."

"Oh, okay."

Chu Yu nodded. He wanted to say goodbye out of habit, but he quickly swallowed his words. See him again? It'd be better if they never met again.

Chu Yu stood at the entrance of the police station for a while, in a daze. He suddenly remembered the purpose of his trip to Qingchuan Road — his beef!

After hesitating for two seconds, Chu Yu was sincerely disappointed with his ability to find his way. He decided to put aside his pride and go to the convenience store next door to buy a bottle of water. He would take the opportunity to ask for directions.

Lu Shi lived on Qingchuan Road. It was an old-fashioned building from 30 years ago. The exterior walls were gray and muddy. The door was short, and the aisles were narrow. The green paint on the railings of the stairs was peeling off bit by bit, revealing the rust inside. There were also spider webs in the corners.

He was a bit of a clean freak. When he got home, he took a shower and deliberately washed his hands three times. The wound on his left arm was soaked white. Lu Shi did not even look at it. He was too lazy to care.

After changing into a clean white T-shirt, Lu Shi was drying his hair when his phone rang.

"Shi Tou?"

On the other side of the phone, Wei Guanglei was startled. He said in a hoarse voice, "F * ck his ancestors!

Lu Ge, did that blockhead Zhao Jiaqiang bring people to stop you? "

Lu Shi: "Who is it?"

"…" Wei Guanglei felt as if he had been strangled. He could not vent his anger, so he could only patiently explain, "It's that Qiang Ge who likes to wear red underpants and has tattoos all over his arms. He likes to say that he's the boss of the Green Dragon Gang wherever he goes."

Lu Shi matched the person with the name. "Yes, he stopped me in the alley behind the street at noon."

"It's really blocked?" Wei Guanglei panicked again. "Lu Ge, my dear brother, you didn't cripple him, did you?

Is he still alive? "

It was not that he liked to make up stories. It was just that when Lu Shi first moved to Qingchuan Road, many people saw that he had just graduated from junior high school and did not have an adult in his family. Everywhere he went, he was alone, and the clothes he wore were not cheap.

Just like a lamb that had suddenly barged in, with the words "I'm rich, and I'm easy to bully" written all over his body, some people began to have designs on him.

The area around Qingchuan Road was quite chaotic. It was filled with old houses that had not been demolished yet, and all kinds of people lived there.

Especially in the summer, when there was a lot of activity, people would gather in the back alleys to fight and fight with weapons. It was lively every day until midnight. Sometimes, people had to occupy a place in advance, otherwise it would be too crowded.

So at first, for a long time, Lu Shi had fights almost every day.

But later, in the entire Qingchuan Road, there were very few people who dared to fight with Lu Shi.

Everyone reached a consensus — they could not beat him, they could not afford to provoke him. How was he a f * cking sheep? He was obviously a wild wolf!

There was once a bold and evil person who did not believe in this. He saw that Lu Shi was young and good-looking, so he tried to pick the lock in the middle of the night. That night, he was held down by Lu Shi in the corridor and his legs were crippled.

That person's cries of pain could be heard all over the street.

Lu Shi threw away the white towel and took out a bottle of mineral water from the fridge. He unscrewed it and drank two mouthfuls. "Nothing happened. Someone called the police, so everyone went to the police station together."

Wei Guanglei did not expect this to happen. "And then?"

"They're still inside. I came out to eat first."

Wei Guanglei sighed and felt strange. "Who the f * ck called the police?"

Qingchuan Road had a secret rule. Everything was solved with fists. Whoever called the police was a coward.

Lu Shi's words had a rare hint of a smile. He replied, "A member of the Communist Youth League."

"Huh?"

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, and a strong wind blew. Lu Shi walked to the entrance of Wei Guanglei's car repair shop and shouted, "Stone."

Wei Guanglei shouted from inside, "Take a shower!

Two minutes! "

Lu Shi felt stuffy and did not go in. He just stood at the door.

All around him were old shops that had not changed their signboards for a decade or two. Lu Shi looked around casually, and his gaze suddenly froze.

There was a familiar figure standing at the entrance of Old Yang's Beef Restaurant.

Wei Guanglei walked out wearing a sports singlet. When he saw Lu Shi staring at him, he said, "I just overheard. Lu Ge, didn't you help Uncle Yang advertise on that lousy public account two days ago? I didn't expect it to be so useful. Look, you helped Uncle Yang convince a new customer to come over!"

Lu Shi's eyesight was good. He saw clearly that it was indeed the member of the Communist Youth League from this afternoon. His name was Chu Yu.

He was still holding the small plastic bag of fruit candies in his hand. He did not put them into the shop. Instead, he sat down at the table at the entrance.

Chu Yu was probably a little disgusted by the stains on the plastic stool. He bent over patiently and wiped the stool with a tissue several times before sitting down hesitantly.

Lu Shi looked at Wei Guanglei, whose hair was still dripping with water. "What do you want to eat?"

"My mom specially made chicken soup before we played mahjong. She said that school is about to start and that you always get first place in your grade and get a scholarship. It's so hard to be a top student. You need to nourish your brain!

She also told me not to drink too much. I'm very disappointed. Is this how you treat me?

Also, there's still half a month before school starts. What's the point of nourishing my brain so early … "

As he talked nonsense, Wei Guanglei placed the folding table in the corner in front of the shop. Lu Shi took the bowls, chopsticks, and the soup pot. The two of them dragged the plastic stool over and started eating.

Before they finished eating, the rain that had been brewing for half a day finally poured down like a torrential downpour.

Qingchuan Road's drainage system was quite ordinary. The streets were filled with water in a short time. After they scattered the seedlings, they could immediately raise fish.

Through the layers of rain, Lu Shi could see that Chu Yu had finished eating and was happily chatting with Uncle Yang. He had even packed a portion of beef to take away.

Uncle Yang took out an umbrella. He was probably asking Chu Yu if he wanted one.

Chu Yu waved his hand and refused. However, he did not leave. He sat on the stool and ate the small bag of fruit candies.

Wei Guanglei was still growing. He finished a bowl of rice in a few mouthfuls. He finished half a bowl of chicken soup and was about to take a one-minute break when he brought up the topic of Qiang Ge again.

"I heard that Qiang Ge has been eyeing you for a few days. They haven't dared to make a move yet. It's probably because they are worried about the rumors.

Yesterday, they collected protection money from the street vendors and got into a quarrel. I don't know why, but you were involved.

Today, they probably brought people to stop you to prove their status as a big brother. "

After saying so much, Wei Guanglei finished the second half of his sentence. "We're all brothers. My mom is your mom. Zhu Zhifei's mom is also your mom. Anyway, what I mean is that if you really go to the police station and need someone to bail you out, you can just call my mom. She's either at the mahjong table or on the way to the mahjong table. She's very free."

Lu Shi did not like to trouble others. If he could solve a problem, he would think of a way to solve it himself.

However, when he met Wei Guanglei's eyes, he said, "Okay. Thanks."

Lu Shi continued to eat with his eyes closed. His body was slender and thin. Whether it was his sitting posture or the way he held his chopsticks, it was a little inexplicably unique.

Every time at this time, Wei Guanglei would feel that this brother of his was sitting very close to him, but they were very far apart.

He suddenly remembered that his mom was chatting with Aunt Jing, who lived next door to Lu Shi. She said that not long after Lu Shi came to Qingchuan Road, a bodyguard in a suit came to look for Lu Shi in a luxury car that could only be seen on TV. Not long after, the bodyguard left and never came back again.

At this time, Wei Guanglei's attention was drawn away. He put down his bowl and cursed, "F * ck. This car must cost seven or eight million, right?"

Lu Shi looked up and followed Wei Guanglei's line of sight. He saw a black Rolls-Royce break through the rain and slowly stop in front of Old Yang's Beef Restaurant.

The driver's door opened, and a uniformed driver with white gloves got out of the car with a large black umbrella. He hurriedly walked around the back of the car and stopped in front of Chu Yu.

After exchanging a few words, Chu Yu got up and said goodbye to Uncle Yang. Then, he hid under the umbrella and was escorted to the front of the car by the driver. He waited for the driver to open the door before he sat in the back seat.

This behavior shocked Wei Guanglei. "Which rich family's Young Master is coming to experience life here?

Uncle Yang is probably so happy that he can brag about it for half a year! "

As the Rolls-Royce drove away, Lu Shi retracted his gaze and took a sip of his soup.

He thought of the time when Chu Yu was carrying a bag of sweets at the entrance of the police station and asked him if he wanted one. His eyes were light and seemed to be filled with amber light under the sun.

Heh, he was indeed a young master with clean eyes without any haze.

In the car, Chu Yu was a little cold from the air-conditioning. He tilted his head and looked out of the car window, but the glass was full of water and blurred. He couldn't see anything clearly.

He had a feeling that when he got into the car, the person sitting across the street was the gangster from noon, but he didn't have time to confirm it.

But what could he do even if he confirmed it?

Chu Yu didn't let himself think about it anymore. He raised the fruit candy in his hand and said to the driver, "Uncle Chen, do you want to try the candy? I have a lot!"

Uncle Chen glanced at Chu Yu from the rearview mirror. He smiled and said, "Young Master, don't eat it. This kind of candy is not good. It's uncomfortable and not good for your health.

I just saw that the beef restaurant is the same. Just try it fresh. It's not clean.

Your Aunt Lan made mung bean cakes for you at home. I think it smells good. "

Chu Yu was a little disappointed. He wanted to say that the beef was really, really delicious. The article on the public account didn't lie to him.

This candy was also delicious. He didn't feel uncomfortable after eating it. He didn't let go of the plastic bag. He wanted to say that he had gone to the police station with a gangster and a group of tattooed men for half a day, but he didn't dare to say it.

Chu Yu didn't want to disappoint him. In the end, he only said, "Really? Then I'll go back and try it."

Uncle Chen didn't notice his depressed mood and continued, "Madam came home this morning to get some important documents. She asked where you were, and I told her that you went out to play with your classmates.

She said that she's busy recently and won't be coming back to stay. "

Chu Yu pinched the colorful candy wrapper. His fingertips were stained with a little candy, and it was sticky and uncomfortable.

He was stunned for a moment before he nodded. "Thank you, Uncle Chen."

Uncle Chen advised him as usual, "Young Master, don't think that Madam doesn't care about you. Madam misses you. It's just that Sir passed away suddenly, and all the pressure fell on Madam's shoulders. She's busy now, so naturally, she can't take care of the family."

Chu Yu had heard this kind of words countless times since he was young. He turned his eyes and looked at the street scene in the rain outside the car window. After a while, he answered in a low voice, "Yes, I know."

When he got home, Chu Yu didn't get wet at all. Still, Aunt Lan anxiously pushed him into the bathroom to take a bath.

After soaking for a long time, Chu Yu's limbs felt weak. After changing his clothes, he looked at himself in the mirror and realized that his hair seemed to have grown a little longer. His fingernails had clearly been cut yesterday, but they had grown again today.

Could it be that he had entered the growth period again?

He didn't think too much about it. At night, he lay in bed and played games. Before going to bed, he told himself a story to hypnotize himself. Soon, he fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, Chu Yu dreamed that he had fallen from the mouth of a volcano. His body was unbearably hot, and his blood vessels felt like they were about to explode.

Then, he dreamed that he was in a winding alley. The sunlight was dazzling. Lu Shi tilted her head and looked at him. Her eyebrows were dark, and her gaze was cold and sharp. The wound on her left arm was still bleeding.
