After two days of rest, Tao Lan still went to work in the cake shop in a hurry. After all, it is better to make money.

Han Xu also called him into the lounge alone.

"Next time you encounter such unreasonable and intentionally provocative garbage, just call the police." Han Xu patted Tao Lan's head and said earnestly, "The receipt is very clear."

Tao Lan nodded like a chick pecking rice, he also knew that he was too weak, and he always chose to swallow his anger when he was bullied by hated people at school.

It really can't go on like this.

·

Life has returned to peace, and most of the long summer vacation has passed. If it weren't for the two sudden money transfer messages and apology text messages, Tao Lan would have almost forgotten about being splashed with orange juice.

Tao Lan had just come out of the convenience store after get off work at that time, but the phone in his trousers pocket kept vibrating restlessly.When he was free to check the news, he found that there were actually two more transfer messages in the bank card.

There was also a text message from an unknown number, with only three short words: Sorry.

Tao Lan was really puzzled, and then another message was sent, this time it was no longer an unfamiliar number, but Roger.

The content is the same as the previous one, and there are only three short words, sorry.

Tao Lan couldn't help frowning, and muttered softly, "What the hell..."

He wanted to call Roger to ask him what he meant, but he thought of that person's annoying face and gave up, and finally called another strange number.

He probably guessed who this person was, it should be the boy who poured orange juice on him that day, but he didn't understand why the two of them suddenly realized their conscience after so many days, and they were both losing money and apologizing.

The boy who made the first call really refused, and Tao Lan immediately made a second call.

"Why are you calling after all the money has been paid to you?"

Before Tao Lan could ask questions, that person spoke first with a bad tone.

Tao Lan frowned, and tried his best to pretend to be fierce and went back: "I just don't know why you suddenly found out that I called you to ask you, or do you think I really want to contact you?"

He spoke very fast, and his tone was not as soft as usual, but he managed to make the person opposite him choke.

"You don't know why?" The man asked back, seeming to be very annoyed and laughed, "Why don't you ask your brother?"

Tao Lan asked suspiciously: "...my brother?"

I don't know if the person on the opposite side still has lingering fears. After hearing Tao Lan say these two words, he was obviously quiet for a while, but soon said angrily: "Anyway, I'm sorry, I shouldn't be looking for trouble that day, and I will also pay for the money." You're sorry, I'll apologize, I'll get the beatings I deserve, we'll settle the matter, don't call me again!"

The boy hung up the phone quickly after a long talk.Tao Lan listened blankly to the busy tone from the phone, still receiving a huge amount of information.

The guy said he lost money and apologized because he was beaten... so Roger must have been treated the same way.Tao Lan thought about it for a long time. Among the people he knows who may have this background is probably... Brother Han?

Tao Lan found a random seat in the convenience store and sat down, and soon called Han Xu again.

Han Xu seemed to be in a bar, there was very lively music in the background, and his voice to Tao Lan was also subconsciously loud.

The two had a difficult communication for a long time, Han Xu finally understood Tao Lan's meaning, and he was also very confused.

"I didn't find someone to beat up that brat." Han Xu found a relatively quiet place to call back, and finally didn't have to deliberately amplify his voice, "Do I look like a member of the underworld?"

Tao Lan replied with some embarrassment: "Brother Han, that's not what I meant..."

Han Xu laughed heartily, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration: "If someone is standing up for you, why don't you ask Lu Yuqing?"

Tao Lan let out a soft ah, a little confused: "Brother Lu...?"

He thought for a long time and finally retorted weakly: "He doesn't look like..."

"?" Han Xu was speechless, "That kid is very sinister, okay? Don't look at him like that, I guess he must have done this."

·

After Tao Lan hung up the phone, he realized that it was getting late, and the oden in his hand was no longer hot, so he hurriedly took his things to catch the subway home.

Lu Yuqing got off work at normal time today, and had already changed into home clothes and played games in front of the computer to relax.Tao Lan knocked on the door but got no response, and finally pushed the door in. It turned out that Lu Yuqing was wearing earphones so he didn't hear it.

Tao Lan didn't hesitate, and walked over cautiously and tapped Lu Yuqing's shoulder. Even so, the boy missed the shot.Lu Yuqing quickly ended the game in hand, took off the earphones and turned to look at Tao Lan: "What's wrong?"

Tao Lan showed him the two messages, and asked with a suspicious expression, "This matter..."

"Well, I did it." Lu Yuqing admitted naturally.

Tao Lan opened his eyes wide, with shock on his delicate face: "Have you found the underworld yet?"

Lu Yuqing: "?"

Helplessly, he stretched out his hand and rubbed Tao Lan's frizzy head, and couldn't help complaining: "What's in your head, what nonsense are you thinking?"

Those almond-shaped beautiful eyes looked at him suspiciously like this, as if he was convinced that he had hired the underworld to beat him up.

Lu Yuqing explained again: "I just used some tricks, but it's definitely not a gangster. And those two bastards bullied you so much, don't you want to vent your anger?"

"I'm just worried that they will call the police. If you go to the underworld... I, I'm afraid that something will happen to you." Tao Lan bit her lip and said in a low voice, "I am also very grateful for what you have done for me, really really , very grateful."

"It's just a trivial matter." Lu Yuqing rubbed Tao Lan's hair on his forehead with a smile, his eyes suddenly fell on the computer, and he asked with a smile, "Do you want to play games? I'll teach you."

Tao Lan subconsciously refused: "No need... I'm stupid, and I'm not very good at playing this kind of game."

"It's okay, only with Xiaobai can I feel a sense of accomplishment."

·

Tao Lan finally moved a small chair and sat obediently in front of Lu Yuqing's desk.

Lu Yuqing taught him how to shoot, how to predict, and how to move, but when it was his turn to actually operate, it was difficult to tell the difference between east, west, north, up, left, and right.

Tao Lan was still walking forward with a pistol in his hand, but was dealt with by the assassin who fell from the sky behind him with a dagger...

He felt very tired, this kind of e-sports game is so difficult.

When I was at my aunt's house, both my cousin and my cousin had computers in their rooms, but he never borrowed them.Typing was also learned in the school's computer class. Even if the school requires him to sign up for a name or make a website, he still goes to a cheap Internet cafe to solve it. There is no way for minors without ID cards to go there There are only those black Internet cafes that are not strictly controlled.

He is also a weird one. Among those children who skipped classes to trick their parents into secretly going to Internet cafes to play games and beat children, he was the only one who diligently guarded the computer and did web design.

There was only one time when he curiously clicked on a game on the desktop of the computer in the Internet cafe, purely because of the nice-looking icon.After clicking in, he realized that it was an ancient role-playing game, and he just stopped at the interface for creating new characters for a while before giving up.

So when Lu Yuqing asked him if he had played any games, Tao Lan subconsciously said the name of that game.

"It turns out that Lanlan likes this kind of game." Lu Yuqing said thoughtfully, "You really should buy a computer when you're going to college."

Tao Lan also had this idea, and he also read it almost. Anyway, it doesn't matter if you don't play games and choose a cheap computer. The main reason is that the small treasury is shy.

But Lu Yuqing told him to buy it later. Although he didn't understand Lu Yuqing's thoughts, Tao Lan still obediently agreed. Anyway, he was not in a hurry, and he used Lu Yuqing's to fill in the application before. Computer, there is nothing inconvenient.

·

It wasn't until Tao Lan received Lu Yuqing's mysterious gift that he realized that this person had actually placed an order for him on the Internet...

And it's a game book, which even downloaded the ancient role-playing game that Tao Lan mentioned.

Maybe it was because Tao Lan's hesitant expression was too familiar, Lu Yuqing said before he opened his mouth, "Withdraw it from your future small coffers, don't say no."

He has asked many times why he is so good to me, and he has given the answer many times, but Tao Lan still feels that there is always a sour question in his heart that he wants to ask.

The expensive laptop was quietly placed on the corner of the desk, Tao Lan bit her lip, her slightly drooping eyes showed a bit of fragility and softness.

"Brother Lu..."

Lu Yu asked warmly, "What?"

Don't you... like me a little bit?

This sentence lingered on my lips for a long time, but when I said it, it completely changed.

"Do you like Xiaoran very much..."

Tao Lan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but Lu Yuqing's unreasonable love for Wu and Wu made him see that unique preference.

As if spying on a secret that cannot be revealed, the blockage in his heart stirred up all the emotions in a mess.

Tao Lan closed his eyes, broke the jar and said, "Although you told me that he is only your younger brother, I can see that your liking for him... is very special."

Lu Yuqing was rarely silent and did not answer.

But the more silent you are at this time, the simpler the answer.

Tao Lan felt a little relieved, he had been uncertain about Lu Yuqing's feelings for that person before, at least now he can be sure.

Tao Lan tried his best to smile, raised his face to look at Lu Yuqing, his eyes were full of gentle starlight: "Am I really similar to him?"

Lu Yuqing's chin was slightly stretched into a straight line, and after a long time, he shook his head lightly: "You are you."
