Coming out of the quiet alley, Shen Lie felt a little uneasy and hurriedly walked into Bianyifang with his head lowered. Then he rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the kitchen.
But I always feel a little guilty.
At the counter, Yun'er looked over with strange eyes. She felt that something was not right about the young master today, and that he seemed to be hiding something from her.
"Could it be..."
Yun'er felt a little uneasy. She suspected that the young master had been seduced by a vixen outside again, but she had no choice. At this time, she missed Miss Zhang very much.
"Big shopkeeper, please come back quickly."
Yun'er feels that only the big shopkeeper can cure him!
So in the busy life, the day passed quickly.
At night.
Light rain fell in the sky again, and the neat little courtyard was very quiet. The raindrops washed the eaves and potted plants clean, and there was a lot of greenery everywhere.
Shen Lie moved the lounge chair into the main room, rocking it gently, feeling the cool breeze, but thinking about something in his heart.
Yun'er was fooled by him, and Miss Zhang is still grounded...
But Shen Lie couldn't help but think of the girl Xuan'er, and wondered if the house she rented was leaking or if she had encountered any trouble.
Feeling anxious.
Shen Lie fell into a deep sleep.
After a while, Yun'er got off the ground with her clothes on, gently picked up a thin quilt and walked over, carefully covering Shen Lie with the thin quilt, and then looked at the sleeping young master in a daze.
I don't know how long it took, but Shen Lie closed his eyes and asked softly: "Is something wrong?"
Yun'er responded softly: "Yes."
Shen Lei didn't say much, but fell asleep again.
At this time, a breeze blew by, mixed with raindrops.
Seeing that the young master had fallen asleep and snored slightly, Yun'er didn't want to disturb him anymore and hurriedly walked over and closed the door.
The room fell into darkness.
The next day, early morning.
The sky has brightened, but the rain is still falling.
Shen Lie stood in the main room and walked around a few times, pondered for a moment, and felt tangled in his heart, but finally put on his clothes, found an umbrella from the side room, and hurried out of the house.
The alley in the rain exuded a fresh earthy smell. As Shen Lie walked through the streets and alleys, he bought a few snacks at the entrance of the alley, and then walked quickly to Jiaofangsi Hutong.
Then he looked behind him warily.
no one.
Shen Lie followed Shen Lie to the door of a small courtyard at the end of the alley, straightened his clothes, and knocked on the door. After a while, a soft female voice came from the small courtyard.
"who?"
Shen Lie hurriedly whispered: "Me."
The sound of soft footsteps came from the courtyard, and then the sound of the door latch being opened. As the door opened, a burst of fragrant wind came.
Miss Xuan'er was also holding an umbrella. She was still wearing the long clothes but no hat. Her cloud-like hair was spread over her shoulders. Her little face looked a little uneasy.
As Shen Lie arrived, she showed a look of relief. That moment of relief made Shen Lie's heart flutter, and he quickly took out a few snacks from his arms and handed them over.
Xuan'er took the snack and said softly: "Master Shen, please come in and sit down."
Shen Lie hurriedly said: "No need."
He still understands the principle behind melons and plums.
Don't bully your friend's wife.
Now I bought it earlier and gave it to her.
Shen Lie felt that it was time for him to leave. Before leaving, he gave a few words of warning: "Miss Xuan'er, please close the door and wait patiently for a few days. If you need anything, call someone to the cheap shop..."
Finished speaking.
Shen Lie hurriedly left holding an umbrella. Behind him, Xuan'er looked at him with a pair of clear eyes, and Fang's heart felt at ease involuntarily.
This is undoubtedly a good man.
In the drizzle of drizzle, Shen Lie's strong and upright figure disappeared at the entrance of the alley. The courtyard door at the end of the alley was also closed, and the door bolt was inserted from the inside.
In the blink of an eye, it was two days later.
Afternoon.
Three days passed and Mr. Zhen was still nowhere to be seen. Shen Lie began to feel that something was wrong. He felt that he might have been deceived by that guy.
For the past three days, Shen Lie has been secretly delivering meals to Miss Xuan'er, taking time out to take care of her in his busy schedule, but...
Shen Lie felt that it was not possible to continue like this. How could Miss Xuaner hide such a lively person?
Such a big thing will be discovered sooner or later.
But in the blink of an eye, it was the evening of the fifth day, and the sun was about to set, but the unreliable Mr. Zhen still didn't come to pick him up.
Shen Lie had no choice but to go into the kitchen and cook some delicious side dishes. He packed them in a poplar lunch box and took a pair of poplar chopsticks.
Hiding the lunch box in his arms, Shen Lie pretended to walk out of the shop as if nothing had happened. While Yun'er was settling accounts and the waiter was cleaning the table, he hurried away.
After a while.
In a deep alley two streets away.
Shen Lie held the lunch box in his hand and looked at the closed courtyard door. He felt entangled again in his heart, but he still stepped forward and knocked a few times.
As a strong woman opened the courtyard door, she saluted Shen Lie and wanted to take the lunch box as usual.
But Shen Lie gritted his teeth and said softly: "Don't bother me. I... have something to say to Miss Xuan'er."
The strong woman understood and hurriedly let Shen Lie into the small courtyard. Seeing Shen Lie hurried into the back room, she wisely hid out.
The courtyard door was closed again.
Shen Lie stopped outside the bedroom door, looked at the low hanging curtain at the bedroom door, and coughed intentionally.
In the bedroom, Miss Xuan'er, who was sitting in a daze by the window, was disturbed and hurriedly whispered: "Please come in."
Shen Lie then opened the curtain and walked in.
The fragrance of my daughter's house came to my nostrils, and I saw her leaning on the fire bed, stretching her straight legs lazily, as if she was bored.
Seeing Shen Lie walking in, Miss Xuan'er was slightly startled. She quickly stood up, got off the kang on both hands and feet, and then bowed dignifiedly with her crotch folded.
Don't look at anything inappropriate.
Shen Lie quickly looked away, opened the hot lunch box in his hand, handed it over with chopsticks, and said softly: "You must be hungry...it's still warm."
Miss Xuan'er responded softly, took the chopsticks, sat at the only table in the bedroom, and started eating silently with her head down.
Looking at her figure, she is still as graceful, and her pretty face is still fair and clean, but there is a trace of haggard that cannot be concealed between her eyebrows. She must have been suffering from being in this small courtyard these days.
Shen Lie couldn't help but curse in his heart. What a good thing that little scumbag named Zhen did. It's been five days, there is no news at all, and he didn't come to pick anyone up.
A complete scumbag!
Why didn't I realize that he was this kind of person? It can be seen that scumbags do not distinguish between ages. He has learned to be merciful everywhere when he was only seventeen or eighteen years old.
When Miss Xuan'er was full, Shen Lie said decisively: "Miss Xuan'er, please clean up, let's... go find him!"
Xuan'er was obviously taken aback. Although he hesitated a little, he still responded softly: "Xuan'er will obey Mr. Shen's arrangements."
Now she can only count on Shen Lie.
As she stood up, put on the long-lasting clothes, tied up her cloud-like hair, and stuffed it into a small green hat, the two of them hurried out the door.
An hour later.
Outside Xiyuan.
Shen Lie didn't know where to find Mr. Zhen, so he took Miss Xuan'er to the outskirts of Xiyuan and started to inquire about everyone he met.
But after asking for a long time, there was still no news.
