Zhou Rui sent Chai Meicen to the door of the dormitory before leaving. This was probably the most reasonable time for him to skip school and walked out of the pace of relating to his relatives.

Zhou Rui becomes much more comfortable when he is with Hou Ranxi.

Chai Meicen gets angry when she doesn't move, but Hou Ranxi is not like this. She hasn't gotten angry with Zhou Rui for so many years and often talks to him. He has always had a good relationship with Hou Ranxi.

"It's really not my temperament when I come to the teahouse." Zhou Rui muttered after coming in, as if he was not very satisfied with the place Hou Ranxi chose.

But there are not many stores open at this time.

“The pastries are good.”

"Make do it, I want to drink Coke."

"Yes." Hou Ranxi turned his head and took some coke.

Hou Ranxi placed a box on the table, and Zhou Rui took it happily: "The gift you brought to me?"

"For your mom."

"Oh." Zhou Rui threw it back on the table without interest.

Hou Ranxi looked at him and took out another box: "This is yours."

Zhou Rui was a little better, took away two gifts with a smile, and said with a tragic look: "I will definitely send the gifts, and I will send you your kind blessings."

“How did I bless you?”

"I will tell my mother that Uncle Hou wishes you a hundred years of life."

"You're just awesome."

Hou Ranxi learned about the incident with Zhou Rui and asked several questions specifically.

Zhou Rui saw Hou Ranxi taking out a notebook and pen to record what he said, and recording the sound. Suddenly, he became a little awkward and a little embarrassed.

He can't let go of such a serious person.

"What are you going to do?" Zhou Rui leaned over and asked.

"Don't worry, I will definitely protect that girl."

"Ah... OK." Hou Ranxi saw through his thoughts.

"The girl you like?" Hou Ranxi felt that Zhou Rui was protecting her, and suspected that she was angry for the beauty.

"What... I just know each other. I grew up together. I haven't fallen in love yet!"

Hou Ranxi was actually shocked, looked up at Zhou Rui, and then smiled: "Oh, I have a face that doesn't look single."

Zhou Rui was a little unhappy and asked Hou Ranxi in turn: "Hello! I haven't talked about it even though I am in my thirties. Have you not even had your first kiss?"

Hou Ranxi turned off the recorder immediately, and then looked at Zhou Rui angrily: "Don't inquire about the matter of sir."

"Do you usually solve it yourself? Are you not lonely?"

"Closing your mouth shut! I'll think about whether there are any other questions." Hou Ranxi sat on the chair and thought.

"Okay, I'll have a game first." As he said that, he hooked his finger at Hou Ranxi, "Lend me your phone."

Hou Ranxi has always had games on his mobile phone, and occasionally he would play with Zhou Rui for a few games, which would make it easier for Zhou Rui to log in to his account directly.

While they were silent, the TV behind Zhou Rui kept playing news.

Zhou Rui looked up and saw Hou Ranxi's expression change. His smile suddenly stopped, becoming particularly serious, and even a little vicious.

This expression scared Zhou Rui and followed Hou Ranxi's gaze and went back to watch TV.

The TV screen has cut to the next news.

He vaguely remembered that the voice he was speaking just now was a group, and he was sure that he was about to return to China.

It is probably the news that some important figure in a group is going to return to China.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Rui asked Hou Ranxi.

"Oh, nothing, the competitor is going back to China." Hou Ranxi finally came to his senses.

Zhou Rui defaulted to being a competitor in the mall and said indifferently: "I am different from you, the adults. I think it's enough to spend money. Don't make any trouble for yourself. What's the point of competing?"

Hou Ranxi nodded, raised his hand and touched his chin, and stared at Zhou Rui for a long time.

"Recently... take good care of your mom," he said suddenly.

"I don't need to tell me, I know it."

He is coming back.
