Jiang Rui turned around and looked at the place where she was sitting just now from outside the cafe. Because it was covered by green plants, people could probably see the people sitting there from the window, but they could not see what people were doing. She gave Joey a hint just now and her actions were not big, so no one should notice.

With an idea in mind, when she turned around again, Jiang Rui showed a bit of distraction on her face and wandered aimlessly along the street.

After walking about several tens of meters, a car slowly drove up behind her and stopped in front of her. The window slid down, revealing Xiao Chen’s face.

“Xiao Xia, where are you going?”

When Jiang Rui saw him, her worried face faded, and she said pleasantly, “Brother Xiao Chen, what a coincidence!”

“Yeah, I see you walking by the side of the road, where are you going? Come up and take you for a ride.”

“No trouble,” Jiang Rui looked around, pointed to the stop sign not far ahead, and said: “I’m going to the flower market. Just take a bus.”

“What a coincidence! I have something to do in the east of the city. Hurry up, hurry up.” Xiao Chen said.

“Will it delay your business?” Jiang Rui hesitated.

Xiao Chen waved his hand, “It’s on the way!”

“Thank you, Brother Xiao Chen.” Jiang Rui stopped refusing and opened the rear door. “Hey, is Teacher Shen here?”

Shen Yuchuan nodded to her, “What do you do at the flower market?”

“Buy some potted plants. I just rented a house. The room is bare and there is nothing. Just decorate it. Teacher Shen and Brother Xiao Chen go to the east of the city to work?”

“Yeah.” Shen Yuchuan did not say much, then asked: “Where is the house rented?”

Jiang Rui said truthfully: “In Wutong Alley, I rented a small single room.”

“Renting alone? Not with friends?”

“Yes, it’s just me. Friends… I don’t have any friends here.”

“If you live alone outside, you should pay attention to safety and pay attention to the landlord and other tenants. For a moment, don’t trust them too much.” Shen Yuchuan said. Seeing Jiang Rui nod, he changed the subject, “I saw you talking with someone in the coffee shop just now. Is it your new friend?”

“Ah… Teacher Shen saw it?” Jiang Rui’s eyelashes trembled and her eyes wandered.

Upon seeing this, Shen Yuchuan said, “If it’s inconvenient to say it, that’s fine.”

Jiang Rui pursed her lips and forced a smile: “Actually, there’s nothing inconvenient about it. The person Teacher Shen saw just now was my ex-boyfriend. He and I grew up together in the orphanage. I did the group performance because of him, but we broke up not long ago.”

“Sorry.” Shen Yuchuan pressed the corner of his mouth.

Jiang Rui took a deep breath and shook her head, “It’s none of Teacher Shen’s business. In fact, he’s not wrong. He wanted to be a big star since he was a child, but I can’t help much. Since others can help him, what reason do I have to ask him to stay?”

“You can’t say that.” Xiao Chen in the front row suddenly said, “Since he wants to be a star, he should rely on his own strength. But count on others for help, what kind of man is he? And listen to what you mean, Xiao Xia, he is on top of others, then it is even more despising!”

“People always want to be better.” Jiang Rui smiled a little bitterly.

Shen Yuchuan looked at her profile. From their first acquaintance, the girl in front of him has always been very optimistic, with a smile on her face. Even if her facial features are not amazing, her smile is so bright that it is unforgettable.

He found that he likes to see her bright smiling face, instead of being so bitter and reluctant in front of him.

He wants to make her happy.

Xiao Chen asked again: “Then why is he looking for you now?”

“I don’t know. He said something about us in the past, said that he apologized for hurting me before, and hoped that we can still be friends in the future.”

“Scumbag!” Xiao Chen said angrily: “Xiao Xia, although I am also a man, I still have to say, this man is a scumbag! You must not be fooled by him. What will be a friend in the future! If he still wants to be friends with you, why doesn’t he say it sooner rather than later, but wait until now, you have the heat to lean up. Did he think that others are blind and do not know his abacus?”

“I know, thank you, Brother Xiao Chen.” Jiang Rui saw that he was so filled with righteous indignation and her face gradually brought some pleasant smiles: “I have come to this point, I can’t do without the help of many people, Director Wang, Teacher Shen, Brother Xiao Chen, and sister Zhao from the Film and Television City. All the people I met were very kind to me. This is everyone’s kindness to me and I will never let others take it away.” She said, her expression slowly firm.

Shen Yuchuan stared at her, the corners of his mouth slightly raised before he even realized it, “It’s good that you can think that way.”

The car stopped outside the flower market, Jiang Rui said goodbye to the two, and Shen Yuchuan watched her enter the market.

“Brother Shen, can you stop laughing like this? It’s weird.” In the car, Xiao Chen had a bitter face.

“Is there?” Shen Yuchuan asked rhetorically.

Xiao Chen nodded fiercely and made a distance between two fingers, “Just like this, the corners of your mouth are raised by about 5 degrees. Either you smile or not, I feel a little weak.”

Shen Yuchuan remained silent, and after a while, he suddenly said: “Xiao Chen.”

“Yes!” Xiao Chen shivered suddenly and straightened his body.

“You did a good job just now. You are approved to add another bookshelf in the office.”

“Oh, Brother Shen, you are my real brother!” Xiao Chen smiled like a flower in an instant, “Where do you think we are going now? Wait here for Xiao Xia to come out?”

Shen Yuchuan thought for a while and shook his head: “Don’t wait if she knows she will be uncomfortable.”

“Then let’s pretend to circle around, wait for Xiao Xia to come out later, and have a chance encounter?” Xiao Chen suggested again.

“How can there be so many coincidences? If there are too many times, people will be suspicious. Do you think she is as stupid as you?”

Xiao Chen choked, “Why are you doing a personal attack, then let’s go home?”

Shen Yuchuan did not say good or bad.

Xiao Chen waited for a while and was about to start the accelerator when he heard him say: “Go to the intersection and wait for her to get on the bus before leaving.”

His hands slipped and he almost hit the steering wheel. The corners of Xiao Chen’s mouth twitched. He said in his heart, in broad daylight, are you still afraid of getting lost? It’s purely to satisfy your desire for voyeurism, you have the potential to be a pervert!

But he promised with all his mouth: “All right, all right, you are the boss, listen to you.”
