After sitting at about the same time as usual, Li Siqi went home. A Luo wanted to stay here for a while, but didn't leave.

It was already late, the sky was low, the night was spreading, and the customers in the store left one by one, and it didn't take long for A Luo to be left.

The clerk's sister was packing her things, and when she was done, she raised her voice, "Little sister, I'm about to get off work."

This is to remind Arlo to let her go home. Of course Arlo can hear it, but she still wants to take a look at Xie Wunian. If she continues to stay, will she see him again?

Just as this thought crossed his mind, a series of subtle footsteps came, A Luo immediately followed the sound, and saw a man dressed in a simple commoner, stepping on the same cloth shoes as the first time he met, walking slowly upstairs. walk down.

His black hair was wet, the tiredness between his eyebrows disappeared, and he returned to his peaceful and peaceful appearance.

The man went straight to the counter and said to the clerk, "You can get off work, I'll watch it."

A Luo was still sitting in his seat, Xie Wunian did not look at her during this period, it seemed that she was an invisible thing, but A Luo felt inexplicably that he glanced at him inadvertently.

She felt the same way when he first entered the door.

The clerk left, and Arlo pretended to be reading with a book in hand, but couldn't read a word at all. Even when the case came to an end and the true identity of the murderer was revealed, she didn't draw her attention back.

Xie Wunian turned to the kitchen, and after a while, he came out with a cup of coffee.

The slightly bitter aroma of coffee filled the air, and Arlo instantly recognized that he should be drinking black coffee. I remember, it seems that the first time I saw him, he also drank black coffee.

A Luo quietly raised his head and carefully observed the man. He put down the cup and took out a book from behind the counter. This time it was a new book~www.wuxiahere.com~ The name is probably still related to crime. This is a little thinner.

The man's slender fingertips turned the pages of the book, A Luo was looking at him intently, but Xie Wunian suddenly raised his head.

His eyes have always been gentle, like harmless water, without any aggression. When he was caught on the spot like this, Arlo just missed a beat in his heartbeat, and quickly calmed down.

She looked back at him boldly, her bright and beautiful almond eyes unblinking.

Even because he was spotted with a small gesture, Arlo became more blatant, and looked at his face one by one, from the deep black eyes to the man's pale lips, without any shyness.

Xie Wunian put down the book in his hand, picked up the coffee cup, and walked towards her.

A Luo was slightly startled, unable to stop being surprised.

The surprise in his expression has not been put away, but the convenience has already walked over and put the cup of strong black coffee on the table.

"It's so late, why don't you go home?" Xie Wunian said lightly.

A Luo was stunned, the other party was standing in front of her, she had to raise her neck to look at him, the lights in the room were too bright, so that the expression on the man's face could not be clearly seen.

But listening to this tone, he should be caring about her?

Thinking of this, Arlo couldn't help but rolled his eyes, pursed his lips and smiled: "My house is very close to here, it doesn't matter if I go back later." After a while, she added, "Besides, I'm the only one at home, It's too quiet, I don't want to go back too early."

As soon as the words fell, A Luo felt the man's eyes change. In the shadow of the light, he looked unpredictable. After a long time, he said, "You are a single-parent family, and your family is not around now?"

A Luo blinked and nodded: "Yes, how do you know?"

Xie Wunian didn't answer, but returned to the counter with the cup of coffee again, and when he said "When will you go back and tell me?", he sat there and started to read a book.

A Luo is really curious. She talked to him three times in total. The first time was when she came to the store to order, the second time was when Xie Wunian lent her an umbrella, and the third time was when she returned the umbrella and the other party took her home. .

No matter which time, Arlo never told him about his own situation, how did he know it?

But no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't think of an answer.

Xie Wunian should have planned to wait for Arlo to leave before closing the door, but Arlo was embarrassed to stay here all the time. The other party made it clear that he would ignore her. Arlo took a peek at her for a while, but she was embarrassed to really go forward to entangle her. She is an emotionally introverted person. Pretend to look down and read a book.

The lights in the store are bright and the air is quiet, with only the occasional sound of turning a book.

After reading a story in a panic, the sky was all darkened, and the street lights on the roadside lit up one by one, like candles, lighting up the dark night.

Feeling hungry in his stomach, Arlo finally got up, put away his books, and prepared to go home.

The man over there moved for a while. He raised his eyes to look at her, closed the book in his hand, turned out from behind the counter, and said, "I'll take you back."

A Luo stopped for a moment and looked over in surprise.

"Thank you boss, it's not too late, you don't need to send it."

It was indeed still early, at most seven o'clock in the evening, and there were still many pedestrians on the street.

The man was silent for a moment, but still said: "I will send you."

A Luo thought about it, since he insisted on sending it, why should she shirk? This will also increase the chances of the two getting along.

Thinking of this, she bent down the corner of her eyes and said with a smile, "Okay, then thank you."

Just like that night, the two walked along the same road to the community where A Luo lived. A Luo didn't talk much, Xie Wunian seemed to talk less, and there was only endless silence between them.

Soon this short road was over, and Arlo felt a little disappointed. Even if she didn't have any conversation, just looking at him, she was willing to go on like this with him.

It's a pity that every road has an end. A Luo stood still and said to Xie Wunian, "Thank you for taking me home."

Xie Wunian looked down at her and said in a low voice, "You come back alone every night?"

A Luo answered truthfully: "Well, there is no one at home. But it is very close to the school, and the security of the community is not bad..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Xie Wunian interrupted her: "Go to Tangxin after school, and I'll take you home."

Arlo stared at him in disbelief.

The girl wore a single ponytail, her forehead was covered with a thin layer of bangs, her almond eyes were round, and her red lips were slightly parted. She was well-behaved and cute.

She was perhaps startled by his words and stared at him strangely. Xie Wunian also knew that there were ambiguities in these words. He had always kept a distance from these female students, but he made an exception again and again for her.

Xie Wunian sighed and explained in a low voice, "You are a girl, living alone is too dangerous."

If she doesn't agree, or is afraid of his sudden kindness, then he can only pretend to send her behind his back in the future.

Whether it was out of compensation for the past or the emotional sustenance of the old man, after he learned about her family situation, he could no longer be indifferent to her.

As soon as this thought came to mind, a girl's soft voice came from the wind: "Boss Xie, you are really a good person. In that case, I will go to you every night in the future, will you be there?"

Eyelid lifted, Xie Wunian saw the girl's pear blossom-like smile, her eyes were sparkling, and her face was full of anticipation.

"It will be there." The man's long eyelashes moved slightly and said softly.

As Xie Wunian said, every day after A Luo went to Tangxin after his evening self-study, he would do his homework there for a while before being sent home by Xie Wunian. Every time he went, he was there, waiting for her to come.

The relationship between the two inevitably drew in, and they exchanged contact information. Although they rarely chatted, they were no longer the strangers they were before.

However, only A Luo and Xie Wunian knew about this matter, and the others knew nothing about it.

Even Li Siqi, who was at the same table, A Luo never told her. The girl's mind is always hidden deep, and she doesn't want to let others see it.

It's just from time to time that A Luo brings cakes to Li Siqi, and Li Siqi will sigh why she always sees Boss Xie but can't see it herself?

The mid-term exam of the third middle school came as scheduled. After the mid-term exam this time, the school gave two days off. Li Siqi was so happy that he invited A Luo to play at the newly opened playground in Lancheng.

The two sat in the sugar heart as usual, and gathered together to watch the advertisement of the amusement park.

A Luo is also a little bit looking forward to it. She has been in Lancheng for so long, and she has never gone out to play. This time she has the opportunity to go out to play, so she naturally agreed without hesitation.

The playground is located in the western suburbs of the city, which is a bit remote, but judging from the evaluations of people who have been there, there are quite a few interesting places, and the scores on the website are not low.

Li Siqi set two tickets and made an appointment with Arlo to meet tomorrow and during the day, and the two separated.

The clerk's sister brought a cup of milk tea to Arlo and said with a smile, "Come, my sister invites you to drink it."

During this time, A Luo stayed in the store very late every time, and Xie Wunian would also show up at night, and asked the clerk to leave work early. The little sister naturally had a misunderstanding, thinking that Boss Xie was in love with A Luo. .

Every time she entered the store, the young lady would give her a cup of milk tea or a small cake, and her attitude seemed to treat A Luo as the proprietress.

In this regard, A Luo did not explain, let this beautiful misunderstanding continue.

That night, when Xie Wunian sent Arlo home, Arlo told Xie Wunian that he was going out to play this week, but the other party was indifferent and only said goodbye.

The relationship between the two is very strange now. Let's say they are familiar, but they are not familiar with each other. Except for picking up and going home, they have no other in-depth exchanges with each other.

It can be said that I am not familiar with it. How can I explain this intimate pick-up and drop-off behavior that usually belongs only to family members?

A Luo was very entangled for a while, but unfortunately it was useless. She always felt that Xie Wunian might have seen her thoughts long ago, but he didn't have that kind of thought for her, so he just sent her home. Once A Luo wanted to talk about something else, he kept silent and let the topic go. Die in silence.

Before parting, A Luo couldn't help but ask, "Boss Xie, why are you being so kind to me?" If he was really so kind, why did he only give her away and still be polite to other girls?

In the gloomy night, the man's eyes were calm, he fixed a look at her, and said slowly, "You are very like my sister."

"What about your sister?"

"It's gone." In the cold night wind, the man's voice was low and hoarse, as if frosted.
