School Uniform Gentleman

As soon as the store manager finished speaking, Yu Rui immediately felt the meaningful look from the person across the table.

Yu Rui pretended not to see it, and smiled at the store manager, "His name is Xie Li, and he is my classmate. He helped me today, so I invite him to come here for dinner to thank him."

"Oh, so that's the case." The store manager nodded, "Then you guys eat, I won't bother you anymore."

As soon as the store manager left, Xie Li weighed the chopsticks in his hand and smiled: "So the monitor and I are just ordinary classmates?"

Yu Rui glanced at him lightly, but said nothing.

Yu Li, who was sitting next to Yu Rui, looked at this and then at that, she jumped off the chair, ran to Xie Li, and whispered to him: "Brother Xie Li, don't be sad, my brother never took his classmates with him before. After returning home, he must regard you as a friend."

"...Little Pear."

Across a table, the volume of the whispers was no different from a public execution.Especially the gaze of someone looking over made Yu Rui almost unable to maintain the indifference on his face.

Yu Li received her brother's warning, stuck out her tongue, and ran back.

Xie Li laughed softly, "The squad leader already regards me as a friend?"

Yu Rui glanced at him lightly, "If you don't eat any more, the noodles will be lumpy."

"..."

The corner of Xie Li's mouth twitched, he didn't force Yu Rui to say anything, he picked up the chopsticks obediently.

The dinner that followed ended in silence.After eating, Yu Rui went to pay for the meal and said goodbye to the store manager.The three left the restaurant together.

On the way home, Yu Li, who was led by Yu Rui, looked around, curious about everything.

Yu Rui's eyes hesitated.

Yu Li followed him since he was a child, and spent most of his time at home, school, or places like study rooms.Yu Rui seldom had time to take her out for a stroll, and as the girl grew older, her needs for entertainment and leisure obviously also increased.It's just that Yu Li is obedient and sensible, and never asks Yu Rui in this regard.

Maybe, I should bring Yuli...

"There's a food festival being held at Zhou Wenhua Plaza for the past few weeks. Do Xiaoli want to go?"

It was Xie Li's voice that interrupted Yu Rui's thoughts.Yu Rui turned around and saw Xie Li squatting in front of Yu Li to ask the girl for her opinion.

Yu Li's eyes were bright, full of longing, but she turned her head to look at Yu Rui immediately, "Brother, can we go?"

Just as Yu Rui was about to speak, Xie Li cut off the conversation first.He squatted in front of Yu Li with one knee slightly bent, but it was Yu Rui who looked up.

The smile in those dark eyes fluctuated deeply and shallowly, "As a return invitation for dinner, monitor, do you want to save face?"

Under such two pairs of eyes, it was really difficult for Yu Rui to say "no".

He could only pat Yuli's head helplessly.

"Let's go then."

The Food Festival is held in the cultural square of City Q, not a short distance away from Yu Rui's home and their neighborhood.Xie Li hailed a taxi on the side of the road, and the three of them sat in the back row.

The back row was originally able to accommodate three people, but it was really difficult for someone with a pair of long legs to be stuffed in the back row, squeezing out a lot of space.

Yu Rui hugged Yu Li to his side, frowned slightly and glanced at Xie Li, "You should be the co-pilot at your height."

Xie Li closed the car door, half joking and serious, "Didn't I want to get closer to you?"

"...!"

Yu Rui subconsciously looked at Yu Li.The little girl was looking forward to departure with great joy, and she didn't notice the teasing in these words at all.

In fact, it was Yu Rui who had a guilty conscience.

The driver glanced at the two of them hesitantly from the rearview mirror, "Where are you going?"

Yu Rui came back to his senses, hiding his discomfort, "Cultural Square."

The driver shifts gears and starts off.

The car drove a certain distance, and the driver had already glanced at them several times in the rearview mirror.

Xie Li didn't bother to care about anyone other than Yu Rui, even if he noticed it.Yu Rui endured for half a minute, and finally couldn't take it anymore.

He looked away from the car window, "Master, we are not child abductors, this is my biological sister. Xiaoli, say hello to uncle."

Yu Li is well-behaved: "Hello, uncle, the one on the left is my brother, and the one on the right is my brother's classmate. They are not bad people. My brother is going to accompany me to the food festival in the cultural square."

"Hey, that's it..." The driver didn't expect to be caught by a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, and smiled awkwardly for a while, "So this is your sister, I blame my carelessness. It's rare to see people of your age I'm sorry for two big boys leading a little girl out."

"It's okay, you also have good intentions." Yu Rui smiled helplessly.

"Are you going to the food festival? There are the most people there on weekend nights, so you have to take care of the little girls."

"it is good."

The taxi stopped at the north entrance of the Cultural Square, Xie Li paid the fare, opened the door and waited for Yu Li to jump off.

The traffic on the left was rushing, Yu Rui hesitated, and got off from the right side where Xie Li was holding the door.

When he leaned out, the man was lying on the car door, looking down at him lazily, with a half-smile.

Yu Rui pretended not to notice, and stretched out his hand to grab Yu Li who couldn't wait, "Xiao Li, don't run around, there are too many people here."

Behind him, Xie Li closed the car door and walked over, stretching out his left hand to the little girl in a natural way, "To prevent you from running away and your brother blaming me?"

Yu Li laughed, and extended her hand to Xie Li.

Yu Rui's eyes fluctuated subtly.

He suddenly remembered that not long ago when he was downstairs in their house, Xie Li went downstairs early to send Yu Li to school with him.

At that time, he was very worried that this sick man was plotting against Xiaoli, so he did not hesitate to pull out Kan Qian and lie that she was his girlfriend.

Now that he thinks back, this is indeed a sick person, but the object of his covetousness is not Xiaoli at all, but... himself.

Yu Rui avoided this question in his mind with a headache, and shifted his attention to the venue of the food festival.

-

There are indeed a lot of people at the food festival, and the entire cultural square is decorated with various food stalls from all over the world from the entrance to the exit.

Xie Li was in charge of shopping, and Yu Li was in charge of eating. Yu Rui followed the two of them through the shops, witnessing Yu Li being coaxed by Xie Li to giggle happily. Three, four, five or six snacks that I didn't have time to finish.

If he does this a few more times, his status as a real brother will probably be lost.

Just as Yu Rui was thinking, he saw Xie Li and Yu Li coming back from a new paving——

"elder brother!"

Yu Li held up one hand, holding two short skewers.I don't know what kind of food is on the skewers, fried into golden balls.

Yu Li ran all the way to Yu Rui, smiling so hard that she could hardly see her eyes, "Brother, try it!"

Yu Rui has always been insensitive to these over-fried or seasoned foods, and he is rarely willing to try snacks.

Yu Rui shook his head, "Eat it, brother won't eat it."

"Huh? It's delicious." Yu Li made a bitter face, rolled her eyes, and suddenly turned her head.

Xie Li came back in the same direction as her, but when she was two steps behind, Yu Li hurried over and hooked Xie Li.

Xie Li leaned over, and the girl stepped on her feet and whispered in his ear.

This time there were so many voices that Yu Rui really couldn't hear what they were talking about two meters away.

He could only see that Xie Li suddenly raised his eyelids halfway through hearing it, and glanced at him with a half-smile.

... Obviously the topic has something to do with him.

Yu Rui was guessing in his mind, when Xie Li took a fried skewer from Yu Li and walked straight to him.Xie Li stopped when he was more than ten centimeters away, and handed the fried skewers to Yu Rui.

"Try one?"

Yu Rui frowned slightly, shook his head, "I don't eat this..."

"Xiao Li asked me to come."

"..."

The sense of crisis that is unique to sister-in-law reappears—even though Xie Li knows that Xie Li has no other intentions for Yu Li, the threat to his brother's status also makes Yu Rui feel uneasy.

He frowned even deeper, and his tone became a little colder.

"Don't eat."

"Do you really want to taste it?"

"No." Only one word this time.In order to show the degree of determination in his heart, Yu Rui deliberately turned his eyes away.

Turning around, Yu Rui happened to meet the central light source in the square from the dark side to create an atmosphere, and he frowned subconsciously.

The boy's profile was drawn into a beautiful outline by light and shadow.

Xie Li's eyes darkened.

After a while, he lifted his heels slightly, relying on his heaven-defying body balance, leaned over to Yu Rui with a precarious appearance.

"Try one."

Yu Rui wanted to hide, "No..."

"Otherwise I'll feed it myself and let them all see it?"

"—!"
