"Brother! Brother!" Joanna, who woke up from her deep sleep, raised her head, touched Liu Mengchao's face and said with a smile, "Today at noon, my very kind sister will bring us a lunch box!"

"Um!"

Liu Mengchao smiled and nodded.

"But brother, what if my wonderful sister doesn't come?"

"Aren't you coming? Then there will be no lunch." Liu Mengchao made a face at Joanna in his arms and said with a smile.

"What do you mean there is no lunch box?" Joanna pouted and squirmed in Liu Mengchao's arms. After a long time, she suddenly raised her head and her big black eyes flashed.

"You don't have a lunch box? I just don't have any food for lunch."

"Oh...in that case..." Joanna suddenly laughed after listening to Liu Mengchao's words.

"It doesn't matter, Anna can have candy for lunch!"

"candy?"

"Yeah! Candy!"

Joanna said with determination, raising her little fist proudly.

"Anna will also give her brother a little bit of land, two... no... one..."

"Only one?"

"Then...two?"

Joanna raised her face, spying on Liu Mengchao's expression.

Liu Mengchao did not answer, but just laughed. He stroked Joanna's head and let the fan's hair constantly rub against his palm.

Such an afternoon is really nice.

Liu Mengchao thought, raising his head and looking at the exhibition sky and the warm sunshine.

"Hee hee, Anna knows, my good sister will definitely come at noon." Joanna was basking in the sun in Liu Mengchao's arms and squirming around proudly.

"Why?"

"Because...she is a very good sister! Like her brother, she is very good!"

Very good?

Indeed, he is a very good brother!

Liu Mengchao smiled and nodded.

bite!

The rice cooker jumped up and Gui Yanye, who was sweating profusely in a hurry, couldn't wait to take out the rice and carefully put it into three lunch boxes.

The snacks used as side dishes are being carefully arranged by her at the moment. Although her craftsmanship was not good before, she has been practicing all the time since they broke up.

Thinking of this, Gui Yanye couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile on his face.

I hurriedly hurriedly and slowly finally caught up. I thought I wouldn't be able to do it before twelve noon. Gui Yanye thought as he wiped the sweat from his forehead and glanced at the time hanging on the wall.

In an instant, the girl's face turned pale.

It's too late!

He carefully put the lunch box into the bag, and his long black hair swayed nervously with Gui Yanye's nervous movements.

"Phew! Done!"

Gui Yanye wiped the fine sweat on his forehead due to nervousness. He raised his head and looked at the time.

Eleven thirty.

I will definitely be able to get to school in thirty minutes!

Thinking of this, Gui Yanye didn't hesitate at all, put on his white sneakers, closed the door with a bang, and ran towards the school.

The school is not far from Gui Yanye's home. Even by train, it only takes twenty minutes. And the remaining ten minutes are enough to find Liu Mengchao!

You can definitely make it in time, Yan Ye!

Gui Yanye clenched his hands tightly and ran to the door of the tram in a panic. The girl, whose back was soaked with sweat, held her knees and kept panting.

Originally, running was not something I was good at.

Slowly calming his breathing, Gui Yanye straightened his somewhat disheveled hair. He walked towards the entrance of the tram. Although it was still noon, the entrance was already crowded with people. If it were any later, he would not be able to catch the tram.

"I'm sorry. The front is closed."

A bearded uncle suddenly stopped in front of Gui Yanye, wearing a peaked cap and the clothes of a tram worker.

"Why...why?" Gui Yanye opened his eyes in shock and looked at the man in front of him in disbelief, "I took the tram home this morning! Why? I'm in a hurry!"

"I'm sorry, Miss. It can't be passed here. The tram track was directly broken this morning. A big hole suddenly melted in the tunnel, and rocks kept falling from the hole. Now the tram has stopped... Hey! What I said is still there.

Not finished yet!”

As soon as the staff member finished speaking, Gui Yanye turned around without looking back, and her long black hair that had just calmed down was shaking violently.

Since the tram cannot pass, the only option is to take a taxi!

Gui Yanye thought about it, and stepped onto the entrance passage with both feet. Ignoring his violent breathing, he stood on the side of the street, stretching out his hands and waving.

Hurry! Hurry and get a car! It's too late! It's too late!

Squeak!

A black taxi suddenly stopped in front of Gui Yanye.

"Wow!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Gui Yanye opened the door directly. The panting girl didn't even have time to adjust, and hurriedly said to the driver, "Please, please take me there..."

"No!"

Before Gui Yanye finished speaking, the driver, who was in his early thirties, touched the stubble on his chin and shook his head, "The road ahead suddenly collapsed for some reason. I just came from it."

We turned around and came back. Miss, if you want to go to school, you are wearing a school uniform, you must be a middle school student, right? Then you can only take a detour."

As he said that, the driver folded his arms and looked at the lost little girl sitting in his passenger seat.

"It's noon now anyway, you'll be late if you go. It doesn't matter if you go slower."

"that!"

The word noon was like an electric current, suddenly stimulating Gui Yanye. She straightened up suddenly and looked at the driver with a serious face.

"What if! If we get to school now! Can we arrive in twenty minutes?"

"Twenty minutes? I'm not a plane. I can't fly that fast. Forty minutes is about right! If the road ahead doesn't collapse, it might be twenty minutes!"

"Bang!"

The car door was opened directly, and Gui Yanye jumped out of the car. His feet in white sneakers moved like flying.

What to do... what to do...

Neither the tram nor the taxi is enough to get to school on time!

The bag containing the bento was like a cruel song, constantly shaking in Gui Yanye's hands. He obviously rushed home and made the bento before noon...

Why... why can't we make enough time! No! No matter what, I have to find Liu Mengchao, and... I have to convey my heart to him completely!

Thinking of the words placed on the white rice in the lunch box with exquisite snacks, Gui Yanye's heart felt like it was dripping with blood.

"Don't go...stay..."

He clearly put these six words in the lunch box, but if he couldn't give it to Liu Mengchao, if he couldn't, he would definitely leave! Just like the previous two times, he disappeared in front of him.

Definitely, definitely will!

So sour!

Gui Yanye, who was running, usually lacked exercise, and now she kept running along the road. Sweat continued to seep out from her back, soaking the white school uniform.

Must...ha...must...must...must arrive!

Holding his knees, Gui Yanye looked feebly at the road ahead.

The entrance of the tram was not far behind him, and the black taxi just passed by him.

He opened his phone with a click and used Liu Mengchao's photo as the standby screen. He was cruelly telling Gui Yanye a fact.

She just buried her head and ran for ten minutes.

In the end, he only ran more than two hundred meters.

It must be too late.

The strength seemed to be drained from the girl's body the moment Gui Yanye's eyes came into contact with the screen. Gui Yanye slowly collapsed. Tears of regret and anxiety kept rolling in his eyes.

"Why...why would I forget...why...why would such a thing happen...why...why would I...be too late..."

The rope of the bag was deeply cut into Gui Yanye's slender palms, and large streams of sweat continued to drip from Gui Yanye's forehead, pattering to the ground together with the tears.
To be continued...
