Helian Qingchen was also happy to see it. Since he was already here, and it was winter, he might as well buy all the necessary equipment for Ajiu.
Furry ears, cotton gloves in the shape of tiger claws, and a stack of masks.
The gloves and ears were put on in the supermarket.
Ajiu was wearing a school uniform, and with these things, she looked like a cosplayer that had just come from a comic convention. She was beautiful and cute. That delicate little face was already attractive, and now she was sitting on the back seat of the bicycle with a big pile of things. The sight naturally grabbed the attention of a lot of people.
Helian Qingchen sat in front with a faint smile. He turned around and fixed Ajiu’s crooked cat ears. Only then did he step on the pedals.
It was just an ordinary bicycle, but because the person riding it was Helian Qingchen, the scene along the way was stunning.
The pure white sweater matched his face that was attractive no matter what time it was. Snowflakes fell on his black hair, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a clean smile. It was like sunlight which hardly faded.
Since they were near the school, they would certainly be seen by others. When the students wore their school uniforms and walked out of the school gate, each of them reached out their hands.
“Isn’t that the new handsome senior?”
“Who’s behind him? His sister?”
“What sister? That’s the sister of the Bai Zhun.”
“Doesn’t this handsome guy dislike Bai Zhun?”
“I’m not sure, but do you feel that these two people are a good match? Look at the eyes of those two people; they are full of love!”
For a moment, the gossip spread throughout the entire campus like a wave.
Xiao Lin was among that group of people. It was a pity that he walked out too late, so he only had time to see Ajiu’s back.
Li Hailou was extremely angry. “Tell me, what exactly does Helian Qingchen mean? Did he deliberately bring Ajiu around the school gate? How could Ajiu get into his car!”
Xiao Lin did not respond to his words. Instead, he took out his phone and called Bai Zhun without thinking. “Hey, I saw Ajiu. You don’t have to look for her. She is indeed fine.”
He did not know what the other party asked. Xiao Lin paused for a moment before saying, “She is with Helian Qingchen. She is in Helian Qingchen’s car. She should have gone to the other party’s home. The two of them bought a lot of things.”
Bai Zhun’s side suddenly went silent.
Then, in less than two seconds, Xiao Lin heard the sound of hanging up.
The more Li Hailou thought about this matter, the more aggrieved he became. “Helian Qingchen’s address couldn’t be found. Bai Zhun thought that Ajiu was in danger. He didn’t expect the result to be like this. He must be feeling bad now.”
“He is now at the Bai family. There are guests at home.” Xiao Lin put his backpack on his back and looked behind him. He did not say much and only said, “Let’s head over.”
Li Hailou nodded. “We can only do this for now.”
The guests of the Bai family were not any other people, but Gu Rou or perhaps Old Master Gu.
Bai Zhun’s birthday was in two days.
The coming-of-age ceremony of the only grandson of the Bai Family was naturally attended by high-cla.s.s people from all walks of life.
The Bai and Gu Families were discussing how to keep Bai Zhun’s birthday party low-key without losing their status.
Old Master Bai meant that the children were still in school, so they shouldn’t be too extravagant and wasteful. They also shouldn’t let these things distract their attention. After all, there was going to be an exam.
But even if he said so, it wouldn’t be that easy to organize.
After all, Bai Zhun’s birthday wasn’t the birthday of him alone.
It involved the s.h.i.+ft of power in the entire Bai family, so they couldn’t be careless anywhere.
But it was clear that Bai Zhun did not pay much attention to this matter.
Old Master Gu stopped and smiled. “Bai Zhun, it’s going to be an exam soon. I think you’re a little tired from studying these few days. If you’re tired, then just have a rest first. Let my girl accompany you. She’s good at making people happy.”
“No need. Thank you, Grandpa Gu.” Bai Zhun stood up as he spoke. “Grandpa, I’m going out for a while.”
Old Master Bai frowned. “It’s already so late, and you’re still going out?”
“Go and pick up Ajiu.” Bai Zhun lowered his head and put on his coat. He didn’t care about the heavy snow outside and wanted to rush out.
Old Master Bai called for someone to stop him, and he walked over with his walking stick. “There are guests at home. If Ajiu wants to come back, she will call you. I have taught you since you were young that you need to know your limits. Now we are talking about your birthday, not someone else’s. After that, you can leave. I will also ask the driver to send you over.”
At this time, Gu Rou walked over, as if she wanted to help. “Grandpa Bai, Bai Zhun is also worried about Ajiu, but it should be fine. I heard that Ajiu is with friends. She will come back sooner or later.”
This was what Li Hailou and the others heard when they pushed the door open and walked in.
Gu Rou gave him a look, hinting for him to stop Bai Zhun so that things would not become more complicated.
It was not that Li Hailou and Xiao Lin did not want to let Bai Zhun go, but they knew that Bai Zhun’s current state was not right. In addition, how was Bai Zhun going to look for Ajiu?
The addresses left were all fake, and the phone’s GPS could not be located. The strangest thing was that even the tracker on Ajiu’s phone had lost its response.
A few juniors pulled Bai Zhun and brought him upstairs.
Originally, the three of them did not want to bring Gu Rou along.
Gu Rou stuck out her tongue helplessly and said, “I had no choice. My grandfather asked me to come up and take a look. He was worried about Bai Zhun.”
With such an excuse, they could not chase him away.
Gu Rou was very smart. She did not talk to Bai Zhun. Instead, she whispered to Lixiao Baw.a.n.g on the other side, “Hailou, I heard from my cla.s.smates that Ajiu followed that transfer student home. Could this be True?”
Li Hailou did not speak.
Gu Rou then let out a long sigh, “She is too young. She doesn’t know that her family will be worried about her. When she comes back later, don’t talk about it before her. I am worried that she will have a rebellious mentality. The more I talk about her, the closer she is to that transfer student.”
Li Hailou clenched his hands. He really did not understand how things would turn out this way.
The snow outside was still falling. The wind blew against the gla.s.s, making a sound again and again.
In the clean and bright semi-open kitchen, Helian Qingchen cut the diced eggplant. He crushed the tomatoes and put them into the pot with a crash. When the fragrance spread out, the silly and cute Ajiu went over. She was in charge of getting the seasoning for second brother.
Helian Qingchen used chopsticks to pick up a piece of diced eggplant and put it in her mouth. Then he let her go and get the rice herself.
Ajiu ran with his chopsticks and electric rice cooker. He didn’t have a moment to rest.
When the four dishes were done, the brother and sister sat down.
Ajiu first helped her brother fill the rice. Then, she picked up her big bowl and started eating.
Helian Qingchen didn’t eat. Instead, he took out his phone and snapped a picture of her.
In the picture, Ajiu still had furry ears. When she raised her head, her big eyes were filled with confusion. The bowl was even bigger than her face. It was the perfect embodiment of a cute creature.
