Song Huaizhi got out of the carriage. He stood still for a while, watching the carriage of the Meng family leave before he walked slowly to the side.
"Lord Meng!"
Li Ergou wiped the dirt off his face and stared in shock at Song Huaizhi who suddenly appeared.
Song Huaizhi nodded slightly, then said to Li Ergou, "I'm going to the White Cloud Temple outside the city these few days. Keep an eye on the family that just moved in next to the Meng family. If there's anything, remember to tell me first."
"Yes!"
After Song Huaizhi finished speaking, he quickly left and walked to the pastry shop next to buy some food, then walked quickly towards the city gate.
[Wow! Little Song doesn't forget to buy food even after finishing his business! He really loves to eat!]
[I think this is bought for Yu Yu...]
[I agree with the sister above. I also think it's bought for Yu Yu! Sob sob sob so cute! My childhood sweethearts! I'm going to melt!]
[How cute! Why do I feel like the anti-hero aura on Song Huaizhi has turned into a childhood sweetheart aura?]
Meng Ruyi stared at the barrage with a complicated expression. She pretended to be in a daze as she stared out the window. Soon she saw Song Huaizhi's figure in a hurry.
"Brother Song!"
Meng Ruyi was pleasantly surprised. She saw Song Huaizhi enter the carriage and pass the oil paper bag to her, then said to the Meng couple, "I thought I won't be coming back to the city for a few days, so I bought some snacks for Yu Yu."
"Thank you for thinking of Yu Yu, Huaizhi."
Xu Fanglian saw Song Huaizhi treating Meng Ruyi like his own little sister. She only felt touched and her gaze on Song Huaizhi became more loving.
"Thank you, Brother Song!" Meng Ruyi could not help but open the oil paper bag and gave Song Huaizhi a piece before taking a bite herself, "Delicious!"
Song Huaizhi received the pastry and smiled without saying anything.
Although Song Huaizhi mainly went out to do business, at least he bought some snacks for her.
Meng Ruyi was curious what he did, but when she thought about it, the person in front of her was Song Huaizhi, so the curiosity in her heart immediately disappeared.
It was normal. She felt that everything Song Huaizhi did was normal. Meng Ruyi always felt that he was mysterious, like the clouds in the sky, unpredictable and yet calm beyond his years.
When they reached the temple, Meng Ruyi only felt so bored until she was dizzy. She wished she could lie down and sleep, and go home when she woke up.
However, the more bored she was, the more awake she became.
After burning incense, she followed the little monk in the temple to the residence of the pilgrims. Meng Ruyi then knew that male and female pilgrims had to stay separately, so she and Song Huaizhi had to separate.
"What? Reluctant?" Xu Fanglian saw Meng Ruyi in a daze looking at Song Huaizhi's back, and could not help but tease her, "Yu Yu is growing up."
"Mother!?" Meng Ruyi snapped back to her senses. She was immediately frightened by her mother's words, "I only see Brother Song as my brother!"
Xu Fanglian looked at her with a smile. She knew her daughter's feelings, but still could not help but feel jealous, "Then you're reluctant to separate for a moment?"
"No." Meng Ruyi was led by Xu Fanglian. Her eyes landed on the flowers and grass on the side of the road, "After that incident, I rarely separated from Brother Song, so I'm a little unaccustomed to it."
"Yu Yu." Xu Fanglian heard her daughter's words and felt pain in her heart. She stopped and said, "It won't happen again. In the future, mother and father will protect you well."
Meng Ruyi smiled after hearing this and looked at Xu Fanglian, "Me too. I will protect mother and father too."
Xu Fanglian looked at her daughter and bent down slightly. She saw her reflection in her clear pupils and was in a daze for a moment. She nodded and said, "Okay."
However, they did not separate for long.
After returning to the side room to rest for a while, Meng Ruyi was led by Xu Fanglian to eat vegetarian food.
When they reached there, Song Huaizhi and Meng Chengliang were already sitting at the table. When they saw the two of them, Meng Chengliang's face showed a smile. He got up and waved at the mother and daughter.
When they sat at the table, Song Huaizhi smiled and said, "I'll take Ruyi around the temple later?"
Before Xu Fanglian could say anything, Meng Ruyi immediately replied, "Okay okay okay! I'm going!"
It was really boring here. If she followed her mother back later, she would definitely be bored for half a day.
Xu Fanglian looked at her helplessly and nodded slightly at Song Huaizhi, "Then thank you for your hard work, Huaizhi."
"It's okay. It's not hard."
[Hahaha mother, Song Huaizhi has gone from disgust at the beginning to initiative now. Sure enough, no one can reject a sweet girl!]
[Sweet girl is number one in the world! I'll raise the flag for Yu Yu! Who can reject a cute little sister! Woo!]
[Hmph, no matter how cute Meng Ruyi is, she's just a cannon fodder. She's not as beautiful as my female lead.]
Meng Ruyi found that the barrage had become active again these few days. They started to quarrel about this strange problem again. She did not know when they would say something interesting.
After the meal, Song Huaizhi brought Meng Ruyi, who was wearing a thick cloak, to prepare to take a walk in the temple. However, just as they reached the temple door, they heard an unexpected voice.
"Brother Song, Little Sister Ruyi?"
Meng Ruyi gasped and looked up in disbelief. She saw the unexpected person.
"Gu Ling!"
Meng Ruyi lost her voice. She almost instinctively cursed a swear word, but thought that Song Huaizhi was still by her side, so she held it back and almost could not catch her breath.
Help! They managed to hide from them, so why did they come too!
Meng Ruyi was like a dead heart. She looked at Song Huaizhi standing next to her and found that his expression was not good either.
Obviously, this was also unexpected for Song Huaizhi.
The late Madam Gu looked at the two children in surprise. She greeted them gently and then brought the reluctant Gu Ling to the temple to find a side room.
"This..." Meng Ruyi saw a few people walk away before she could not help but say in a low voice to Song Huaizhi, "Brother Song, why did they come!"
Meng Ruyi rarely saw Song Huaizhi look so bad. She was immediately panicked and could not help but have cold hands and feet. She instinctively tightened her palm.
Feeling the stinging pain from her palm, Meng Ruyi suddenly snapped back to her senses. She saw Song Huaizhi reach out and rub her hat. The gentle force came through the thick cloth.
"Don't worry." Song Huaizhi's voice was a little cold. It sounded faint, like the mountain wind, "I won't let anything happen to you."
Meng Ruyi heard Song Huaizhi's words and inexplicably felt at ease.
But why was Gu Ling here? Did he know something?
Meng Ruyi looked at the barrage and pretended to be in a daze.
[Mother! It's so coincidental. Gu Ling's mother also wanted to get rid of the bad luck, so they ran into each other.]
[It has to be said that Meng Ruyi and Song Huaizhi are worthy of being cannon fodder and anti-heroes. Their luck is really strange.]
[Ah ah ah ah ah, I feel so sad for my baby Yu Yu. She has already worked very hard. Why did she still meet them!]
[This dog story has no humanity! Can't we just have a happy childhood sweetheart daily? Why do we have to add a knife, ah ah ah ah ah dog author!]
Meng Ruyi: "..."
What luck!
