This day is Thursday. Ever since Shen Lie was brought home by Lu Taoyao at Jane Eyre KTV last weekend, the two of them have been eating, living and studying together every day.
Without the two parents Shen Gang and Lu Ya at home, the two of them get along very harmoniously and naturally, which can even be described as sweet.
It was also the first time in so many years that Shen Lie wanted to go home after working outside all day.
"Go home" became a word full of expectation for him for the first time.
There were steaming meals at home, and Lu Taoyao, who pouted and scolded him for being a stubborn donkey, even made him wear an apron to cook dinner...
He was a sophomore and had fewer classes in the afternoon than freshmen. He rushed out in the afternoon to deal with the affairs of his small group in the north of the city.
After arranging things, I got on my motorcycle and prepared to rush back to A University to pick up Lu Taoyao who was about to finish class and go home.
Sister Zhu said sourly: "Our brother lie has returned to his family recently. He only appears with us for a short time every day and then rushes home. In a few days, will our team be disbanded?"
Shen Lie formed this team when he graduated from high school. At the beginning, whoever paid him would be an amateur security guard.
Later, after it became big, Shen Lie, who had just grown up, registered and opened a regular security company.
He recruited young gangsters who had just grown up in the streets and alleys and trained them as "security guards" through their own group.
Because Shen Lie and his gang of young men fight hard and are obedient, hiring them basically doesn't have to worry about picking trouble without being wise.
Moreover, Shen Lie taught them to be obedient and not cause trouble, so his security company soon became prosperous in City A.
The first group of brothers who followed him around also went from being a few spirited young men with less than a hundred yuan in their pockets to now having a fixed income of thousands or tens of thousands a month.
But Shen Lie is undoubtedly their absolute core and leader. They all know that Shen Lie's family is actually not short of money, and his father is still a senior civil servant.
So they are all very afraid that one day Shen Lie will abandon them and stop working. Then won't they have to go back to their previous life of "real street kids"?
After Sister Zhu asked, Shouhou also asked with a worried face: "Yes, Brother Lie, you haven't been living in the north of our city these days. Do you have to go home every day in the future?"
Speaking of the issue of going home, Shen Lie remembered that Shen Gang and Lu Ya were going back to China tonight, and it would be inconvenient for him and Lu Taoyao to be casually intimate at home in the future.
Moreover, he was not ready to live peacefully with the mistress who destroyed his family. This was the only thing he could not forgive.
Shen Lie pursed his thin lips, turned around and said, "No, I just went back to school today because I have something to do. I will go back to live in the north of the city tonight."
Sister Zhu was very happy when she heard this and immediately said: "That's just right. There will be a big beer and food festival in Beishan Park in the north of our city today. I heard that there will be large fireworks at seven o'clock. Come back and let's go together!"
"No." Shen Lie refused directly and rode away without looking back.
Shouhou laughed at Sister Zhu: "What do you think, you would invite Brother Lie? Don't you know that he never participates in such festivals?"
Sister Zhu rolled her eyes at Shouhou, but also sighed: "Hey, sometimes Brother Lie really doesn't seem to have normal human emotions."
However, Shen Lie, who was complained by Shouhou and Sister Zhu that he would never participate in such a festival and that he did not have normal human emotions, was currently revising his design homework with Lu Taoyao in the library.
Shen Lie sat next to Lu Taoyao, propping up his chin and looking at her peaceful profile as she drew the design. The sunset sun shone on her cheeks, and he could clearly see the fine down on her face like a baby.
Lu Taoyao felt uncomfortable with Shen Lie's overly sticky eyes. She stopped painting, covered Shen Lie's eyes with her hands, and asked helplessly: "What's wrong, you've been staring at me like this today?"
Shen Lie blinked his eyes, and his thick and straight eyelashes tickled Lu Taoyao's palms, so she could only retract her hand.
Shen Lie originally wanted to say that he would not go home tonight, but as soon as he said it, he inexplicably changed to: "There is a beer and food festival at Beishan Park tonight, and there will be fireworks at seven o'clock. Do you want to go together? ?”
"Fireworks?!" Lu Taoyao opened her eyes wide and became interested: "I haven't seen fireworks for a long time!"
When Shen Lie heard this, he realized that Lu Taoyao was more interested in fireworks than beer and food.
He said mysteriously: "I know a place where you can see the fireworks from the most perfect angle without crowds."
"Where?" Lu Taoyao's eyes almost had stars.
Shen Lie lowered his head and looked at his phone: "It's half past six now. If we leave now, we can arrive just in time for the fireworks to start. Can we go?"
Lu Taoyao closed the design with a snap, stood up and said, "Let's go!"
Then Lu Taoyao got on Shen Lie's motorcycle and experienced what real racing is.
Six-thirty in the afternoon on weekdays is the evening rush hour, and the road is very congested.
Shen Lie's motorcycle moved flexibly through the traffic jam at a normal speed, but it was particularly exciting when driving on a crowded road.
Lu Taoyao held Shen Lie's waist tightly the whole time, not daring to move for fear of being thrown away.
It normally takes half an hour to drive from A University to the north of the city. In order to catch the fireworks, Shen Lie rode to Beishan Park in 20 minutes.
But at this time, Beishan Park was already crowded with people.
On the formerly empty square, red sheds were erected in a row, decorated with colorful lights. Different delicacies and snacks were sold in each shed, and the crowds were bustling and lively.
The road into Beishan Park was blocked, and private cars kept coming from behind.
Lu Taoyao was a little disappointed: "It seems we arrived too late. All the good seats in the park to watch the fireworks must have been taken away."
Shen Lie raised his lips and smiled: "Who said that, no one can find the secret place I know. Hold me tight, I will take you there now."
As soon as he finished speaking, the motorcycle roared again, turned around in the crowded traffic, and then rode to the path on the other side of Beishan Park.
This turned out to be a little-known old road up the mountain, a winding cement road that could only accommodate one motorcycle.
This road was more exciting than walking through traffic. Lu Taoyao buried her head on Shen Lie's back the whole time, not even daring to look around.
Until they reached a small platform, the view suddenly widened, and they could see the lively scene in Beishan Park Square. The entire beer and food festival was at their feet.
It was seven o'clock exactly at the moment they arrived.
With a "whoosh" sound, a super large colorful firework flew into the sky and exploded above their heads, gorgeous and dazzling.
"Wow!" Lu Taoyao looked at the sky in wonder.
Huge fireworks lit up the sky above Beishan, and also illuminated Lu Taoyao's delicate face. The fireworks seemed to fall into her clear eyes, sparkling.
The fireworks disappeared in an instant. Lu Taoyao turned around and pulled Shen Lie excitedly and said, "Did you see it? That firework is heart-shaped, and it has three colors, um..."
Shen Lie didn't say anything. He pulled Lu Taoyao who turned around, kissed her lips, and hugged her tightly.
Another beautiful firework exploded into the sky, illuminating the two people hugging each other closely.
This moment is frozen, as beautiful as an oil painting.
Shen Lie pressed Lu Taoyao's forehead and whispered softly: "Lu Taoyao, I like you."
Lu Taoyao's lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something, as if she wanted to respond to him.
But in the end, he just took the initiative to hug Shen Lie back and buried his head in his chest.
She responded to him with a hug, but she didn't agree to his uncontrollable confession.
Shen Lie's heart slowly sank.
The slag elimination system said: "Very good. The favorability of the mission target Shen Lie has reached 90 points. The anti-abuse campaign has officially begun. Sister Taoyao is in charge!"
