22 Either hit this or that, in short,

Lu Shi, who was beaten with sticks, stared at her without blinking.

Jiang Lai felt that his eyes were burning, as if he wanted to stare a hole in her face, and the hand holding her wrist was also strong. This aggressiveness made Jiang Lai a little uncomfortable. She greeted Lu Shi with a little embarrassment: "What a coincidence, you are here to play too?"

"Unfortunately." Lu Shi looked at her word by word and answered: "I came because I knew you were coming."

... Jiang Lai was silent for a few seconds. How could she answer this?

How come Lu Shi became so direct after not seeing him for three years? This is completely different from his previous personality... Could he have been possessed by another body?

Jiang Lai secretly glanced at the person in front of her. Lu Shi's appearance had not changed much from before. Meng Man said that he had been a soldier for two years, but his skin was still as white as before, and his body was exactly the same as before.

Jiang Lai took a quick look at Lu Shi's eyes like a thief, trying to judge whether his eyes were cloudy or he was bewitched or something.

This is not the case. He looks so normal. What happened to Lu Shi?

Jiang Lai has always known that Lu Shi still seems to have feelings for her, because he has been sending her WeChat friend requests every now and then in the past few months. Each time, there are only four words, "I am Lu Shi", "I am Lu Shi", like a carrier pigeon.

In high school, Jiang Lai did not realize that Lu Shi still liked her because she did not pay attention to it, and Lu Shi did not take any initiative.

After graduating from high school, she heard a few rumors about the whereabouts of the top student Lu Shi. It seems that he went to the best aerospace university in the country, and then joined the army and served for two years. He came back not long ago.

When Meng Man was gossiping with Jiang Lai, she guessed that Lu Shi should have served for two years because his family, whose three generations had served in the army, asked him to do so.

Jiang Lai was not interested in this. She still preferred to listen to gossips about stealing girlfriends and catching cheating. These gossips were like chicken feet, and she could chew them all night.

Seeing that Jiang Lai didn't respond, Lu Shi frowned slightly: "Are you going back?...Also, I added you on WeChat, why didn't you accept?"

"Well, I'm going back..." Jiang Lai raised her hand: "Well, can you let go of my hand first?"

Lu Shi let go of her hand silently.

"Then I'll leave first." Jiang Lai pretended not to hear Lu Shi's next question and pretended to slip away: "See you next time."

"Wait a minute." Lu Shi held her wrist again, and his tone was a little heavier: "You haven't answered my next question yet."

Jiang Lai scratched her head awkwardly, and then began to lie: "Maybe I didn't see it, I don't check WeChat very often."

In fact, she is an active player in the circle of friends, posting three circle of friends a day. She will post a circle of friends even if she squeezes a hand cream that looks like a little rabbit, and then add a sentence "Forget it, you must find it boring."

"Then you..." Lu Shi was silent for a few seconds, as if he had lost his temper from the strong attitude he had just pretended to have. There was a familiar, hidden hurt in his eyes: "Then remember to pass it when you go back."

Jiang Lai was a little embarrassed. She scratched her head and was about to speak when a familiar, faint voice suddenly rang in her ear: "Xiao Man."

Jiang Lai's heart subconsciously shuddered.

Because now there is only one person who calls her Xiao Man, and Shen Hean doesn't often call her like this. As the saying goes, if you don't call her, it's fine, but if you do, it's shocking. Most of the time, Shen Hean called her "Xiao Man" with a warning tone in his tone. He would only call her like this when he was really angry.

Often after calling her "Xiao Man", she would either be beaten or that, in short, it was a stick education.

It was the first time that Shen Hean called her "Xiao Man" in such a peaceful voice.

Jiang Lai was stunned for a moment, and even forgot that her wrist was still held in the palm of another man's hand. When Shen Hean rescued her hand, she realized that she seemed to be in trouble.

Jiang Lai hid slightly behind Chen He'an, and heard Chen He'an speak calmly: "Are you Lai Lai's classmate? I wonder if you had any dispute?"

"No..." Jiang Lai secretly pulled the corner of Chen He'an's clothes, trying to explain, but was frightened by the warning look of Chen He'an when he looked back at her, and her neck felt cold, and she immediately shut up.

"Are you...?" The boy standing opposite them hesitated and said: "Are you Lai Lai's uncle or brother? I don't have any dispute with her, but..."

He didn't finish his words, and he was hesitant. The expression on his face was meaningful, and people could tell at a glance that there was indeed a dispute, but it was just an emotional dispute.

Chen He'an didn't show it on his face, but he was very dissatisfied with the hesitant boy in front of him.

As for Jiang Lai, she naturally didn't feel Chen He'an's emotions, because she was trying to hold back her laughter.

The moment the word "uncle" came out, Jiang Lai couldn't help but gloat. Actually, Chen Hean didn't look like a 30+ person from his looks and appearance, but he gave people the feeling of a natural superior temperament, and he often wore suits and leather shoes, so it was not wrong to guess him as an elder.

Lu Shi also added "brother" after him, obviously worried that he guessed Chen Hean was old, but it was obvious that he agreed more with the option of "uncle".

Jiang Lai himself said "Uncle Lu" in his heart, and then he was disgusted by himself and almost vomited.

Chen Hean felt the hand holding his clothes tighten and loosen, loosen and tighten again, and knew that someone with a lot of inner drama was secretly happy again. He also knew the reason for his happiness, but it was just because others called him uncle.

Jiang Lai liked to make fun of him for his age, calling him daddy when he was happy and calling him Lao Deng when he was unhappy. When Chen Hean heard it for the first time, he didn't understand what this word meant, and was afraid that the generation gap between him and Jiang Lai was too obvious, so he secretly checked it on the Internet.

Well, it obviously means old thing, so he took it as a nickname given to him by Jiang Lai.

Later, after being teased by Jiang Lai so many times, he was not so obsessed with the age difference between the two of them, and even thought that it would be good if these could make Jiang Lai laugh.

Being called a "rival in love" by someone like that, Shen Hean was not angry, or angry, or jumping up and down.

In fact, these words would never appear on him at all. He was in his thirties. If he was not more stable and peaceful, how could he be worthy of being Jiang Lai's guardian, parent, and lover?

Shen Hean did not take the person in front of him seriously. He was just a young boy. He was not in his eyes, nor was he in Jiang Lai's eyes.

Shen Hean gave him a proper, perfect and cold smile: "I am Lai Lai's boyfriend. Lai Lai has no bad intentions, but her personality is a bit straightforward. If she has offended you in any way, I apologize to you on her behalf. Please don't mind."

The boy looked at him blankly, then at Jiang Lai, his eyes were a little confused and hurt, and he looked like he was hit by something.

Chen Hean didn't say anything else to him, but just nodded politely: "Lai Lai is not feeling well, I will take her away first."

"Xiao Man."

"Hey!" Jiang Lai, who was watching the show nearby, was startled and responded subconsciously. He turned around and saw the perfect smile on Chen Hean's face that seemed to have been programmed: "Say goodbye to your classmates, we're going back."

Jiang Lai touched her nose awkwardly. She felt that the current scene was a bit weird. Shen Hean was like a parent who came to pick up a child from kindergarten and asked the child to say goodbye to his playmates.

Although she felt a little strange, Jiang Lai really wanted to leave, so she still obediently said goodbye to Lu Shi: "I'm leaving first. We'll get together again next time. Bye."

Lu Shi's Adam's apple moved, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he swallowed the words back into his stomach when Jiang Lai pulled the sleeve of the man next to him and turned away without any reluctance.

He looked at the direction where Jiang Lai and Shen Hean left, his eyes heavy.

Jiang Lai climbed into Shen Hean's car swiftly. The discomfort in her stomach magically disappeared. She was excited and was about to tell Shen Hean about the gossip she heard tonight. The next second, she shrank her neck when Shen Hean slammed the door shut, turning into a little quail.

Shen Hean glanced at her indifferently, and the little quail was busy opening the car window.

"Why open the car window? It's cold outside." Shen He'an's tone was calm, but it was like the silence before a storm.

Jiang Lai smiled awkwardly at him: "I feel a gust of wind in the car, I opened the window to get some fresh air."

"Close it."

Jiang Lai glanced at Shen He'an's face, and then very cowardly raised the car window.
