It was already dark, and his father drank the medicine and fell asleep again. Only then did Zhong Yi remember that he had not eaten, so he walked out of the door and unknowingly walked to the path outside Li's house.

The Li family hadn't come back yet, and the lights were on. Zhong Yi smiled to himself, turned around and was about to leave, when he saw a familiar slender figure walking over from the other end of the road with a heavy bag of rice in his hand.

The two of them looked at each other from a distance, neither standing still.

The next second, Zhong Yi strode over, took the rice in her hand, and walked to her door silently. Li Xiaoyi came back to her senses, her face was red, and said: "No, no need, I will do it myself."

!”

Zhong Yi replied dully: "We are all neighbors, why are you so polite? Can you carry 20 kilograms of rice?"

"You can lift it!"

As soon as the words came out, both of them were silent, and they both remembered that when they were together a few years ago, he would carry everything everywhere and she would always be empty-handed. That was also the only time when Li Xiaoyi was so arrogant when she grew up. Apart from that,

She is an obedient and sensible daughter, a hard-working eldest sister, and a hard-working waiter who always takes care of others. But Zhou Zhihao is a very careless person and is not attentive and considerate to her.

When he arrived at the door, Zhong Yi put down the rice and stepped aside. Li Xiaoyi didn't dare to look at his face. She lowered her head and hurriedly picked up the key to open the door, but she heard a low and hoarse voice: "How have you been in these years?"

"Pretty...ok." Li Xiaoyi forced a smile, "What about you?"

"Do you hope I'm doing well?"

Li Xiaoyi made a move, but didn't dare to ask anymore. She opened the door, carried the rice and went in. Zhong Yi didn't say anything, grabbed her arm, and she pulled it out like it was burning, and closed the door with a bang.

Zhong Yi stood there for a while, raised his head, exhaled, and strode out.

Just a few steps away, his cell phone rang. He and Zhang Jingchan and Li Weiyi had exchanged numbers today, and they immediately picked up: "Weiyi, what's going on?"

Zhang Jingchan said on the other end: "Bring your ID card, simply pack your luggage for 1 or 2 days, and take a taxi to the airport. We are going to Shanghai urgently, and you can go with us. There is a new business district over there, go and see what opportunities there are."

"

"……Now?"

"Yes, Li Xiaoyi will go too."

"Okay, I'll leave right away."

Not long after, Li Xiaoyi also received a call from her sister. She was very surprised: "Biology competition? Why is it so sudden?"

Zhang Jingchan on the other end of the phone laughed to himself, but he didn't expect that just one day after traveling through time, he would tell all the lies he had never said in half his life.

He glanced at Li Weiyi next to him, who had a magnanimous look on his face, and the words "Those who are close to black are black" flashed in his mind.

He answered fluently on the phone: "...it wasn't me originally. The original candidate suddenly fell ill in Shanghai and urgently asked me to come over and replace him. The organizer paid for the flight and hotel reservations. My parents' shop cannot do without people. Please ask for leave."

Come with me and remember to bring our ID cards."

——

Li Xiaoyi did not doubt her sister's words at all, and she felt that her sister had always been more assertive than her, so she packed her luggage and documents obediently. At this time, Li's father and mother came back, and she did not become suspicious because Li Weiyi had been sensible since she was a child, and she had gone to Xiangcheng before.

Participated in a competition.

This sounds like a government-funded trip, and Father Li and Mother Li also want their eldest daughter to go. As for calling the teacher to verify? The parents are shy and honest, and have never thought about it.

So Li Xiaoyi took a taxi for the first time (because Zhang Jingchan said that public expenses would be reimbursed), and when she arrived at the departure hall of the airport, she saw her sister standing in the bright hall, with a calm and thoughtful look on her face. Next to her was a tall, handsome and sunny boy.

Li Xiaoyi was stunned.

When Li Weiyi saw her sister, she couldn't hold it back and ran over to her: "Sister, long time no see! Come, I'll get your luggage!" She couldn't help but snatch the box over.

Li Xiaoyi: "Hey, no need...thank you! Thank you!"

The two of them walked up to Zhang Jingchan, and he nodded: "Where is my ID card?" Li Xiaoyi took it out and handed it to him. Seeing his "sister", he still remained silent. Li Xiaoyi pulled him to the side, avoiding the young man, and whispered

: "Didn't you say we were going to compete? Why is he... A-Chan here?"

Zhang Jingchan was too lazy to explain and replied: "She will accompany me."

Li Xiaoyi's heart sank and she said, "You two..."

Zhang Jingchan put his hands in his trouser pockets, looked up at the sky and smiled, a little resigned to his fate: "Ah, she is my boyfriend."

Li Xiaoyi was so anxious that she never expected that her sister, who had always been sensible, would suddenly explode: "You are already a sophomore in high school. How can you have a boyfriend during this critical period? You have no future at all?"

Zhang Jingchan originally didn't want to say anything more to her, but when he saw her eyes full of anxiety and concern, he thought about it and said, "Do you know who he is? His father is Zhang Moyun, the richest man in Chen City. As long as he and I are good, what will happen in the future?"

No?"

Li Xiaoyi was stunned for a moment, his face became even more ugly, and he said resolutely: "How can you think about this? Weiyi, you can't have such crooked thoughts. It doesn't matter who his father is, and it doesn't matter whether he has money or not. The key is character...

No, it doesn’t matter if you have good character! You are still young and obedient. Let’s talk about it after you get into college.”

Zhang Jingchan was silent for a while and said in a soft tone: "I'm just kidding, don't worry, we are just friends with him. I will definitely be admitted to the 985 University."

Li Xiaoyi felt relieved and said, "Then just let him go and I will go with you."

While the two were talking, Li Weiyi, who was disliked, had sneaked closer. Hearing the words, he immediately answered: "No, sister, he won't do well in the exam if I'm not here!"

Li Xiaoyi: "..."

Zhang Jingchan took the opportunity to walk away. Li Xiaoyi wanted to say something else, but Li Weiyi waved behind her: "Brother Zhong Yi, here!"

There was a "boom" in Li Xiaoyi's head, and she couldn't care less about her sister. She turned around and saw Zhong Yi wearing a black jacket and carrying a bag, looking tall and resolute, walking towards them.

Zhong Yi nodded to them, and his eyes fell on Li Xiaoyi. Li Xiaoyi's face turned red again, turned away, and asked in a low voice: "Why is he here?"

Li Weiyi answered seriously: "Oh, brother Zhong Yi and I are good friends. He is going to Shanghai to investigate some entrepreneurial opportunities. We are all from Chen City and we happened to be together. Sister, do you have any questions? My good friend Zhong Yi

Can’t you come with us?”

Li Xiaoyi couldn't answer, and her face turned redder. Zhong Yi didn't say anything, walked to her side, picked up her suitcase, and stood quietly.

Zhang Jingchan patted the back of Li Weiyi's head and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Is that enough? That's your sister."
