Maybe it's because Lu Yan was in bed for recuperation a few days ago and accumulated a lot of things, all waiting for him to deal with.

For several days in a row, Lu Yan left early in the morning and did not come back for lunch at noon. He often waited until evening to see him again.

Seeing Lu Yan's tired look, Shen Ruoyan was too embarrassed to disturb him anymore. She swallowed back the words she had been holding back all day, and just told him to rest early.

Shen Ruoyan was unfamiliar with the place here and had no friends she could talk to.

During the day, she often sat alone in the yard, bored and watching the white clouds drifting by in the sky.The two of them were obviously only separated by a yard, and sometimes Lu Yan's voice could even be heard coming from the other side of the wall, but Shen Ruoyan felt that the distance between her and Lu Yan was getting farther and farther.

After a few days, she was really bored. Shen Ruoyan cooked the snacks herself and planned to send them to Lu Yan.

Walking out with the food box, compared to the silence in the backyard, the front is a completely different scene.

Everyone here seems to be very busy. People pass by from time to time, and their footsteps are also hurried, as if they are afraid of wasting time.

Everyone was very curious about the sudden appearance of Shen Ruoyan, a strange face, but no one came up to ask. They just took a quick glance and went about their own business.

Shen Ruoyan was looking for someone to ask where Lu Yan was when she heard lively conversations coming from the living room, including Lu Yan's voice.

Walking to the door, Shen Ruoyan found a group of young people sitting in the hall. Shen Ruoyan recognized a few faces as the people who went to the restaurant to eat together last time, and Tang Manman was sitting next to Lu Yan, talking energetically about the construction View of the water channel.

She said a long list, and everyone applauded, and even Lu Yan nodded to her to express his approval.

Tang Manman happily patted Lu Yan on the shoulder, raised her chin proudly, and said in a friendly tone: "Brother Lu, I am really good, what reward are you going to give me this time?"

Lu Yan didn't respond, but he didn't refuse either.

Shen Ruoyan, who was standing outside, looked at the scene inside and suddenly felt that there was an invisible barrier between herself and them.

So different.

So out of place.

The hand holding the food box tightened, the knuckles turned white, and a sourness surged in his heart.

Guihua, who was following her, saw Shen Ruoyan standing outside the door and asked in confusion: "Why don't you go in, girl?"

Shen Ruoyan lowered her head, pursed her lips, and said, "Forget it, they are busy, I won't go in and disturb them."

After saying that, he picked up the food box and walked back.

Osmanthus looked strangely at the people still discussing in the hall, then looked at the back of Shen Ruoyan leaving alone, and sighed in confusion.

The girl looked like the master of the golden branch at first glance, but she had been busy in the kitchen for several hours. In order to serve Mr. Lu a hot snack, the girl's white hands were burnt red. Why did she reach the door again? Suddenly he stopped going in.

Master Lu would be very happy if he knew that the girl had made snacks for him.

Shen Ruoyan walked back to her apartment listlessly, feeling tight in her chest. She put the food box in her hand on the table and said to Osmanthus, "I'm going out for a walk."

"But..." Osmanthus put down her work worriedly, "How about I accompany the girl."

"No, I'm just strolling around and I'll be back soon." Shen Ruoyan just felt bored and wanted to be alone for a while, so she refused with a smile.

Coming to the bustling street, the depression in my heart was relieved a lot.

Without Lu Yan by her side, Shen Ruoyan walked around the shop comfortably.

Shopping is always the best way for women to relax.

Different from the ridiculously high prices in Yang Luocheng, the things here are very reasonable, generally [-] to [-]% cheaper than in the capital. Shen Ruoyan buys any interesting and novel gadgets she sees without any pressure, and soon she has a lot. Several things.

Just as she was about to enter the next shop, the sound of a child crying suddenly reached her ears.

Looking for the sound, I walked over and saw a six or seven-year-old boy standing at the street corner. He was crying with snot and tears. He was very sad.

"What's the matter, kid? Why are you crying so loudly?" Shen Ruoyan walked up to him and asked softly.

When the little boy saw such a beautiful sister appearing in front of him, he forgot to cry for a moment, but he was crying too hard just now, and suddenly stopped, and a snot bubble came out of his nostril, which was funny and cute.

"Uh." The little boy burped, pointed behind him, and said aggrievedly to Shen Ruoyan, "Sister, that big brother stole my steamed buns!"

Shen Ruoyan turned around and saw a tall figure standing behind the two of them, holding a white steamed bun in his hand and looking at them innocently.

"Is this his steamed bun?" Shen Ruoyan asked suspiciously when she saw that the man was polite and well-dressed. He didn't look like someone robbing a child.

The man nodded concealingly.

When Shen Ruoyan saw the other party admitting generously and showing no regrets on his face, Shen Ruoyan immediately said loudly: "Why are you, a grown man, robbing a child? Return the steamed buns to him quickly."

"No! Ayuan is hungry."

As soon as the man opened his mouth, Shen Ruoyan realized that he was a little different from ordinary people.

Although he looks tall and powerful, his tone of voice is like that of a half-grown child.

The man said, as if he was afraid that Shen Ruoyan would snatch the bun back, he ate it hungrily, and soon he swallowed the whole bun.

The little boy cried louder when he saw this.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Give me back the steamed buns! Bad guy, big bad guy!" the little boy cried and yelled.

When the man was scolded by him, he showed an aggrieved look, screwed up his mouth, and defended in a low voice: "I'm not a bad guy, Ayuan is hungry."

As he spoke, he touched his belly childishly.

Shen Ruoyan was so upset by the quarrel between them that she rolled her eyes at the man angrily, pulled the little boy and coaxed: "Okay, stop crying, I'll buy you some meat buns, how about that?"

After all, he was still a child. When the little boy heard this, he immediately stopped crying and asked weakly: "Really? Can you really eat big meat buns?"

Shen Ruoyan nodded, remembering that she had just passed a bun shop and took the little boy's hand and bought him two buns.

The child held the meat buns and bowed excitedly, saying: "Thank you, sister!"

Shen Ruoyan touched his head and said, "Okay, go home quickly."

The little boy said thank you again before jumping away.

Shen Ruoyan breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and found that the strange man just now had been following her.

Shen Ruoyan had no intention of paying attention to the other party. She was about to turn around and leave when suddenly someone grabbed her clothes.
