"Su Xiaoli, your brother is here to pick you up." The security guard shouted towards the inside.
The next second, a small figure ran out quickly from inside.
"Brother!" Su Xiaoli jumped directly into Su Mu's arms, holding his waist tightly with a pair of small hands.
"Xiao Li." Su Mu looked at Su Xiaoli who threw himself into his arms, and most of the annoyance in his heart disappeared instantly. His voice was full of tenderness that he didn't even notice: "Are you hungry?
Let’s go home and eat.”
"Well..." Su Xiaoli pressed his soft face against Su Mu's chest and responded in a muffled voice.
"Let's go, let's go. It's getting dark." The old security guard standing next to them waved to them with a smile.
"Goodbye, grandpa." Su Mu held Su Xiaoli's little hand, said to the security guard, and then walked directly outside the security office.
"Goodbye, goodbye." The security guard watched the two of them disappear into the security office before locking the door again.
Su Xiaoli followed Su Mu. After walking forward for a long time, he still couldn't help but look back.
Sensing something strange about her, Su Mu lowered his head, gave her a strange look and asked, "What's wrong??"
"Nothing..." Su Xiaoli responded in a low voice, but kept looking back.
"Did you leave something in the kindergarten?" Su Mu held her hand and stopped.
"No..." Su Xiaoli shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered: "Duoduo is still inside."
"Duoduo?" Su Mu looked at her with some confusion.
"She's...a little girl in our class." Su Xiaoli explained in a clear voice.
"Oh, her parents haven't gotten off work yet. When her parents get off work, they will naturally come to pick her up." After hearing her words, Su Mu couldn't help but smile, stretched out his hand to rub her furry head and said
: "Is she your new best friend in kindergarten??"
"No..." Su Xiaoli murmured in a low voice and stopped talking.
"What's wrong with you?" Su Mu looked at her with doubts in his eyes: "It feels a little strange."
After Su Xiaoli was silent for a moment, he suddenly raised his head, with a pair of big black and white eyes, reflecting the lights on the roadside, and asked with a hint of hesitation in his tone: "Brother... can you pick me up early tomorrow?"
"Ah??" After hearing what she said, Su Mu stretched out his hand and scratched the back of his head with some embarrassment, and said with a blush: "This... I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. This semester is about to end, and we will be here soon.
It’s time for the final exam. Our head teacher thought my math score was not good, so he specially assigned a top student to give me after-school tutoring in an attempt to improve my score..."
His voice paused, and then continued: "If I want to pick you up early, maybe..."
Su Xiaoli listened to his words, and his moist eyes were filled with disappointment.
Seeing the bright light in her eyes disappear in an instant, Su Mu couldn't bear to say: "Then... how about I study hard next semester and try not to be left behind by the class teacher after school? Then I can pick you up earlier...
…”
"Well..." Su Xiaoli lowered his head and responded dully.
Su Mu looked at her lowered head and felt that the word "disappointment" was written all over the back of her head.
