After finishing their meal, Su Li and He Xun walked out of the restaurant.
"Where are you going now?" He Xun asked her.
"I have to go home." Although Su Li felt a little regretful, her parents at home were a bit strict. Although she told them that she would have a meal with her classmates today before going home, her mother had just sent a WeChat message asking pass.
"Going home so early?" He Xun looked at her, as if he didn't understand.
"Just now my mother sent me a WeChat message asking me to go back and do my homework early. And she said that my little cousin is here and wants me to help with homework. I have to go back." Su Li actually didn't really want to leave. Make her feel uncomfortable.
For example, although the family's financial situation is not good, parents have loved the original owner since she was a child, and they don't let her do any housework, but she must study hard, and her test scores cannot fall below the top three.
For example, the original owner's parents are very face-saving and love to brag about their daughter's excellence in front of relatives, and they are determined to make her the kind of "other people's child" in the hearts of all parents and children.
For another example, because she is good at studying, the children of relatives who live at home often ask her to help with homework.
All in all, Su Li, who has always been free-spirited, is not used to this kind of atmosphere. She also seldom dressed as such a family, such a child.
However, even if she is not used to it, she has to act like she is used to it.
Seeing that she was a little embarrassed, He Xun asked, "How did you go back?"
"Take the bus, just change once in the middle." Su Li pointed to the bus stop not far away, "You can take the bus there."
"Well, let's go." He Xun nodded.
Seeing that there was no other reaction from him, Su Li couldn't help feeling a little discouraged. What's going on with He Xun, why is it so difficult to tease? At this time, I didn't say a few words to persuade me to stay, but just said to go...
Thinking of this made me feel depressed.
He Xun stood beside Su Li, waiting for the bus with her. She didn't say a word, just stood there looking at her toes in a daze.
"The car is here." He Xun reminded her when he saw that she hadn't responded when the car arrived.
"Oh, goodbye." Su Li was about to go to the car after she finished speaking, but she was poked on the back just as she finished inserting coins.
"Do you have any coins? Toss one for me." He Xun stood behind her.
"Huh?" Su Li was stunned for a moment, then realized, "Why did you get in the car?"
"Send you back, stop talking nonsense and quickly insert coins for me, the driver uncle glared at me." He Xun frowned impatiently.
"Oh... good." After Su Li helped him insert the coin, a smile appeared on his face, and he felt relaxed. The dark clouds in front of him were broken by the sun, leaving a halo.
He Xun led her to the back of the car. Although this car was not as crowded as the one just now, there were quite a few people standing around. He frowned and said, "Why do you always take so many people in the car?"
"Then... what if it's not?" Su Li got stuck, "I can't walk either, not everyone has the money to take a taxi every time."
However, He Xun has other worries. He has been a school bully for a long time, and he knows a lot about things on the bus. What if she runs into a pickpocket, a thief, etc.
It is said that when the weather is hot, there will be more such people. When he thinks of this, he feels uneasy.
Remembering her delicate skin, he gently took her hand and brought her in front of him, and then he was alert to the movement around him. That way, it's like a ferocious beast baring its teeth to protect its cubs.
