Night had already fallen, and when Xu Ziran arrived at the neighborhood where Qiu Yurou's house was located, the moon had already risen, and the air was filled with the damp smell of grass and trees, permeating from the nasal cavity to the brain.

Panting, Xu Ziran parked his bicycle at the door, walked to the gate, and asked Uncle Mengang to open the door.

Because Xu Ziran has been here many times, the guard at the gate already knew her, so he opened the door without saying a word, but asked after opening the door: "Why is it so late today..."

Xu Ziran didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking, he waved his hand and ran into the community.

The trees in the community had already grown dense branches and leaves, blocking the faint light of the street lamps on the side of the road. Xu Ziran walked to the door of Qiu Yurou's house in two steps at a time. Just as he was about to ring the doorbell, he suddenly calmed down.

Speaking of which, I came here out of nowhere, wouldn't it be a bit embarrassing if there was nothing to do at all?

But they were already at the door, and the guards had seen her, so it would be a bit inexplicable to go back, Xu Ziran only hesitated for two seconds, then raised her hand and pressed the doorbell.

The door was quickly opened, and then Xu Ziran was stunned together with the person who opened the door.

The person who opened the door was neither Aunt Chen nor Qiu Yurou, but a tall, white and thin woman who looked to be in her 30s, wearing a white turtleneck wool sweater and black suit pants, her hair was permed into big waves and draped behind her. The hot-eyed outfit that Xu Ziran usually sees now can be called elegant and beautiful.

After the other party opened the door, instead of stepping back, he stepped forward and asked, "Are you...?"

Xu Ziran recognized that this person was Qiu Yurou's mother.

It's just that she's not that thin now, unlike ten years later. I don't know if it's because of this, and she doesn't have the unique temperament that can grab people's hearts in the future. It just makes people feel that she is well-maintained and calm Ma'am, the slender willow-leaf eyebrows showing a slightly sharp aura.

Xu Ziran was stunned for a moment, then said: "Hello, Auntie, I am Qiu Yurou's classmate, I have something to talk to her about."

Mother Qiu frowned slightly: "It's so late, what's the matter?"

Xu Ziran then said: "It's a very important matter, I have to say it now, if you don't believe that I'm Qiu Yurou's classmate, I can show you my student ID—ah, no, I didn't bring my student ID, can I do it?"

Mother Qiu didn't refuse, but Xu Ziran looked at the school badge handed over, and asked, "What's your name?"

"My name is Xu Ziran." Xu Ziran was inexplicably impatient, "It's okay to let Qiu Yurou out."

Only then did Mother Qiu finally say: "Qiu Yurou has gone out and is not at home."

As soon as she finished speaking, Aunt Chen came out of the room.

The other party was fully dressed, holding a bag and chattering: "Such a good child, you ran out in the middle of the night after being scolded by you, and I don't know where you are now, I have never seen you do this shit..."

When I was talking about this, because I looked up and saw Xu Ziran, I was surprised and said: "Ah, why are you here, it's so late."

Xu Ziran had already grasped the point, raised his voice slightly and said, "You mean, because you scolded Qiu Yurou, Qiu Yurou ran out so late, right?"

Qiu's mother frowned and said: "This is our housework, it has nothing to do with you, your mother never taught you, don't you talk to your elders like this?"

Xu Ziran's original age was not much different from Qiu's mother now, and she didn't have any psychological pressure. Hearing this, she sneered and said, "Then your mother never taught you that seeing is believing, and hearing is believing?!"

Mother Qiu's expression was extremely shocked: "You, you, how did you talk."

Xu Ziran took a step forward: "Did you think that Qiu Yurou cheated because of the phone call from the dean?"

Qiu's mother said: "Could it be that the dean lied to me? Why did he lie to me?"

Xu Ziran then said: "Because there's no harm in lying to you, is there? Anyway, you won't trust your daughter. To you, she's just a tool to show off!"

Mother Qiu shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Xu Ziran asked: "Isn't it? People like you all think like this? Because you have a good education, good grades, and good financial income, you force your children to do better. If you don't It’s a disappointing failure, isn’t it?!”

Qiu's mother was stunned for a while, but couldn't help taking a step back.

But when she realized that she took a step back, she couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Is Xu Ziran right? Student Xu Ziran, you are not welcome in our family, please leave quickly, don't come now, in the future, in the future!"

Xu Ziran looked at Qiu's mother, she felt incredible.

Why was this man still not in a hurry when his daughter ran away from home?

Xu Ziran couldn't help asking: "Why did you give birth to her?"

Mother Qiu blurted out: "Do I want to give birth to her?"

Because Xu Ziran was too shocked, he laughed "ha".

Then she stepped back down the stairs, gave Qiu's mother a cold look, turned and left.

Now, she knew why Qiu Yurou who came out of the airport said such things.

Because the other party only has the title of mother, but she really is not a mother.

After leaving Qiu Yurou's community, Xu Ziran was a little dazed.

Although she made up her mind to find Qiu Yurou, she had no clue if she really wanted to.

The night wind carried a penetrating chill, which made Xu Ziran, who hadn't had time to add any clothes, get goosebumps, and the noisy rustling sound coming from nowhere in the night wind made the night even more lonely and strange.

On such a night, where would Qiu Yurou go?

Xu Ziran rode his bicycle towards the school, went around the school but found nothing, and then turned back. When they came to the fork in the road where they usually separated, suddenly Fu Ling had a heart, and rode in the direction of her home.

After passing a few streets, it was the street where her house was located. Xu Ziran looked at the alleys one after another, and fell into a daze again.

This is a remote suburb. At this point, there were no people there, and the night was shrouded in thin moonlight. The moonlight was as pale as a cicada's wing, staining the gray walls with a touch of silver.

Xu Ziran heard the cry of frogs, but he didn't know where it came from.

At this moment, she heard a meow.

It's soft and light, thin and pointed. You can tell that the cat is probably very happy when you hear it.

Pushing the bicycle, Xu Ziran walked in the direction of the meowing cat, and saw that he was in the direction of his own home. After turning a corner, he saw the squatting girl and the ginger cat under the pale streetlight.

This picture is like a scene drawn by a modern painter. It has a different kind of warmth, but it is also inexplicably lonely.

Xu Ziran breathed a sigh of relief.

In any case, she found Qiu Yurou.

Probably hearing footsteps, Qiu Yurou turned her face slightly and raised her head.

She probably came out in a hurry, and her hair hadn't even blown up yet. Her long black hair covered half of her cheeks, revealing a pair of smiling eyes.

"Cumin, you found me." She said.

Xu Ziran took a few breaths, feeling that her beating heart had finally returned to its original position, and just as she was about to step forward, the cat under Qiu Yurou's hand suddenly raised its tail and barked at her with a much sharper voice than before.

The corner of Xu Ziran's mouth twitched, thinking to himself: Could it be that he didn't feed it a few months ago and even teased it, how could he hold grudges till now.

Qiu Yurou yelled "Mimi" while soothing the cat's head, and said softly in a different voice than usual: "Rhubarb Rhubarb, what's the matter, Cumin is fine, don't bark at her. "

Xu Ziran received a good person card, rolled her eyes at the cat that was glancing at her from the corner of its eye, and asked, "Yu Rou, have you had dinner yet?"

Because the cat was restless under Xu Ziran's gaze, Qiu Yurou had to peel off the sausage completely, put it on the ground, and walked towards Xu Ziran clapping her hands.

Only then did Xu Ziran realize that Qiu Yurou's state was different from usual.

Although the other party's eyes are usually clear and energetic, they are definitely not as bright as today. Under the pale street lamp and dim moonlight, that face still reveals a fresh and tender red, like a plump berry.

And her expression was even more different from the usual, and also different from the future. There was a vague smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she was extremely happy.

But the system didn't remind the other party that he was very happy, so the happiness must be an illusion.

When Qiu Yurou approached, Xu Ziran reached out and wiped the other person's face, and when he felt his tentacles were hot, he asked back, "Do you have a fever?"

Qiu Yurou said, "No."

Xu Ziran leaned closer and sniffed it, frowned and said, "Are you drinking? How could any store sell your wine?"

Qiu Yurou shrank back because of Xu Ziran's sudden approach, but then leaned closer and said, "Just say, it's for parents."

Xu Ziran then said: "The problem is not this, you are underage, how can you drink alcohol?"

Qiu Yurou looked puzzled: "You are still a minor, why do you speak like an adult?"

Xu Ziran simply did not talk about this topic.

Talking to a drunk about drinking is the most unreasonable thing in the world.

She then said, "You and I can stay at my house for one night. Are you feeling well now?"

Qiu Yurou leaned on Xu Ziran's body: "I don't know, I'm just a little dizzy."

It's not that Xu Ziran has never been drunk before. She knows that Qiu Yurou is a little drunk but not too drunk. She has liberated her nature a little, but tomorrow she can remember everything she did today.

While thinking about whether the other party would be embarrassed tomorrow, she also thought that the future Qiu Yurou would never be drunk, and she didn't know how much she drank today, so she asked, "How much did you drink today?"

Qiu Yurou said, "I only have enough money to buy three bottles of beer."

Xu Ziran: "Drinking for the first time?"

Qiu Yurou: "Yes."

The corner of Xu Ziran's mouth twitched: "Have you had dinner yet?"

Qiu Yurou: "...Have you eaten?"

Xu Ziran sighed: "Okay." The first time I drank, I had three bottles on an empty stomach. At this level, I can only say that there is still talent in things like drinking capacity.

Sure enough, Qiu Yurou was not considered drunk, and when she arrived at Xu Ziran's home, she knew that it was not appropriate to put on a drunken state, so she straightened up neatly, and greeted Xu's mother politely.

Mother Xu didn't expect her daughter to go out in the middle of the night and bring a classmate back, first she greeted Qiu Yurou a few words, and then scolded Xu Ziran, "Running out without saying a word, do you know how worried your father and I were just now! Did you know that you almost called the police!"

Xu Ziran also felt that he was a little impulsive in doing this, so he lowered his head as a confession.

From the corner of the eye, I caught sight of Qiu Yurou pursing her lips and laughing.

Xu's mother babbled again and asked if the two had eaten, and after hearing that they hadn't eaten, they babbled all the way. Xu Ziran pretended to help tell Xu's mother when Xu's mother was heating up the dishes, and Xu's mother said: "There is nothing in this world. How can there be a mother who doesn't care about her daughter, I think her mother is also anxious."

Xu Ziran was noncommittal.

Parents often have an authoritative image in their children's minds, as if they know everything, but in fact, they can only know what they can touch.

Xu's mother felt that all mothers cared about their children because she had never seen a mother who didn't care about her children.

But Xu Ziran has seen it before, and she has seen all kinds of strange family relationships in the future, and sometimes it can make people think that it happened in another world.

After the two had dinner, Xu Ziran thought that Qiu Yurou had been running around all night and drank again, so she prepared to let the other party take a bath first.
