The place Sheng Zhuo was going was not far from the school, and he arrived there quickly.
Chi Jindong stopped the car, Sheng Zhuo said goodbye to him respectfully, and turned to look at Chi Le before getting out of the car.
Chi Le waved his hand blankly, "... Goodbye?"
Sheng Zhuo curled his lips, reached out and rubbed his hair, lowered his voice, "Le Le, I'm leaving."
Chi Le's cheeks felt hot, and a heat rose from his heart. He felt like he was about to explode.
Sheng Zhuo called him by his nickname!
And ruffled his hair!
…
When Chi Le came to his senses, Sheng Zhuo had already crossed the road and walked to the other side. Chi Le quickly opened the car door and said, "Dad, wait for me. My classmate left something in the car. I'll take it to him."
He made up an excuse and chased after him without waiting for Chi Jindong to answer.
After all, Sheng Zhuo is his future daughter-in-law, so he wants to get to know her better, at least to know where she lives.
Chi Jindong couldn't help laughing when he saw his clumsy appearance.
The sun sets in the west, and the sky is filled with rosy clouds.
Sheng Zhuo had long legs and walked fast, so when Chi Le caught up with him, he could only see a corner of his clothes and almost lost him.
This is an old city area, with steps and alleys everywhere. It is dark and dilapidated, with messy old buildings lining both sides. Many houses are vacant, and the walls are covered with various small advertisements.
Chi Le looked at the dilapidated old buildings around him, thought of the old basketball that Sheng Zhuo had been carrying all the way, and then thought of "Sheng Zhuo's mother", and guessed that Sheng Zhuo's family environment might not be very good.
No wonder Sheng Zhuo couldn’t bear to eat the bear biscuits he gave him last time!
Chi Le wandered around and finally caught up with Sheng Zhuo, and found him feeding stray cats in the alley.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on Sheng Zhuo, casting a layer of golden light on the ends of his hair. He squatted in front of an orange cat, looking down at it. His jawline was clearly outlined, and his lowered eyes reflected the warm sunset, making him look somewhat gentle.
The orange cat meowed twice, and he gently scratched its chin with his fingers. The orange cat squinted its eyes and made a comfortable purring sound in its throat, looking very happy.
Chi Le stared blankly at the man and the cat in front of him, and a soft emotion inexplicably surged in his heart.
Sheng Zhuo didn't stay for long. He played with the orange cat for a while and continued walking forward without noticing Chi Le standing at the entrance of the alley.
Chi Le subconsciously followed him for two steps. When he saw Sheng Zhuo walking down the stairs and Fang Younian coming from the opposite side, he hurriedly stopped.
Chi Le was afraid that Fang Younian would see him following Sheng Zhuo, so he didn't go any further and stopped on the steps.
Fang Younian didn't know what he said to Sheng Zhuo. Sheng Zhuo smiled. He hooked his arm around Sheng Zhuo's neck and walked forward. They soon turned the corner. The two of them talked and laughed along the way and disappeared from Chi Le's sight.
Chi Le leaned on the railing and watched them walk away, pursing his lips in melancholy.
My future wife is hanging out with another man.
Why…
Chi Le reached out and took off the green hat on his head. He really wanted to remind his father not to buy him a hat of this color in the future. After all, he was a married man now!

After a satisfying meal in the evening, Chi Le hid in bed with the quilt covering him to eat ice cream. He scooped a full spoonful of ice cream into his mouth, which gave him a chill, but a happy smile appeared in his eyes.
