Chapter 239: The sneak attack of Zhu Sheng

August 2, morning.

It was a rare occasion that Li Luo's family didn't get up early in the dark at around three in the morning.

Although Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong woke up at around four o'clock and lay in bed for more than an hour, they finally got up at half past five.

The biological clock formed over the years cannot be reversed in just one day.

At around seven in the morning, Li Luo woke up on time. Lin Xiuhong, who was watching TV in the living room, said to Li Luo, "There's rice porridge in the rice cooker, pickled mustard and fermented bean curd on the table, and there's preserved eggs in the refrigerator that we can eat."

"understood."

Li Luo responded, walked into the kitchen and served himself a bowl of porridge, then came to the dining table and gulped down the bowl quickly.

Feeling warm in his stomach, Li Luo washed the dishes, returned to the bedroom, put on his coat, and prepared to go out for a morning run.

"Where are you going?" Lin Xiuhong asked curiously.

"Let's go for a morning run and exercise, do you want to come with me, Mom?"

"When did you develop this habit?" Lin Xiuhong was a little surprised. Before, although Li Luo would get up early for a morning run if he didn't go to the store to help after returning home, Lin Xiuhong never saw him in the breakfast shop.

This was the first time she knew her son had this habit.

"He was just developed this semester." Li Luo chuckled, "Do you think your son is very promising and can't help but want to praise him?"

"You just keep talking nonsense all day long." Lin Xiuhong rolled her eyes at him. "Come back early after running. Go next door and call Xixi and your uncle Ying. If they haven't had breakfast, come to our place and have a bite. Then we'll go shopping for New Year's goods together."

"understood."

Li Luo responded, then walked out of the house, went downstairs and came to the gate of the community.

Just as he was about to twist his ankles to warm up, a familiar figure appeared in front of him, which really stunned Li Luo.

"Good morning." Yan Zhusheng was wearing the beige down jacket that Li Luo picked for her last time and the orange scarf that Li Luo gave her around her neck. She greeted Li Luo with a peaceful look on her face.

This expression made it seem as if she had already made an appointment with Li Luo to meet this morning, and there was no sense of incongruity.

"Why are you here?" Li Luo was a little surprised. He walked up to Yan Zhusheng and looked at her strangely.

"I went out for a morning run and happened to pass by here." Yan Zhusheng blinked, "What about you? Why are you here?"

Seeing what she said, Li Luo was a little bit amused: "You should find a decent excuse. Your home is several kilometers away from mine. You said you were jogging all the way here in the morning?"

"Huh?" Yan Zhusheng looked blankly at the neighborhood behind Li Luo, "So this is your home."

"It is said that if a person often pretends to be stupid, he will gradually become a real stupid person." Li Luo looked at her silly look and couldn't help pinching her cheeks. "Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?"

"I'm not stupid." Yan Zhusheng shook his head, then took out a pair of fingerless gloves from his pocket and handed them to Li Luo.

"This is?"

"Gift."

"You carry gifts with you on your morning run?"

"Yes." Yan Zhusheng nodded confidently, "Give me your hand."

Li Luo stretched out his hand, and then watched Yan Zhusheng carefully help him put on gloves.

"So you came all this way just to give me a pair of gloves?"

"I'm here for a morning run." Yan Zhusheng blinked and said, "Do you want to run in the morning too?"

"Yes."

"Then let's go together?"

"Heh." Li Luo smiled and then nodded, "Let's go, run."

In the morning at Jincheng Community, two figures ran slowly around the community wall for several laps.

After running for about twenty minutes, when he returned to the gate of the community for the fourth time, Li Luo stopped, feeling his slightly warm body, and asked Yan Zhusheng, "Have you had breakfast?"

Yan Zhusheng shook his head.

"Then do you want to go up and eat something?"

"Go to your house?" Yan Zhusheng blinked, somewhat tempted.

But after seeing Li Luo nod, she quickly shook her head and said, "I'd better go home and eat."

"Forget it. I don't have anything delicious to eat at home today." Li Luo walked towards the street next to him, "I'll go to a nearby store with you to eat something."

"Okay." Upon hearing this, Yan Zhusheng immediately gave up the idea of ​​going home for breakfast, and followed Li Luo, walking beside him with a happy face, "Are you going to buy New Year's goods today?"

"Correct."

"You're going back to the countryside tomorrow?"

"Ah."

The two chatted along the way and came to a nearby breakfast shop.

Since Li Luo had already had breakfast at home, he ordered one mainly for Yan Zhusheng.

But while eating the wontons, Yan Zhusheng ate one himself, then looked up at Li Luo.

"Why are you looking at me?" "Do you want some?" Yan Zhusheng picked up a wonton with a spoon and said to Li Luo, "I can't finish it."

Li Luo drank porridge at home just to fill his stomach, and he was originally neither hungry nor full.

It would have been fine if Yan Zhusheng hadn't said anything, but after hearing what she said, he actually wanted to have a bite, and his face hesitated for a moment.

After just a moment of hesitation, Yan Zhusheng had already raised the spoon, put it to his mouth, and looked at Li Luo's mouth with interest.

After Li Luo opened his mouth and swallowed the wonton in one bite, Yan Zhusheng's eyes narrowed and he looked very happy.

"Have you contacted your senior?" Li Luo swallowed the salty and sweet wontons and asked Yan Zhusheng.

"I've asked." Yan Zhusheng nodded, "We agreed to go to your place on the fourth day of the New Year, but we don't know how long we'll stay."

"You can stay as long as you want." Li Luo said, "We will be back from the countryside on the eighth day of the first lunar month. It depends on how many days you want to play."

"Then I can stay until the eighth day of the first lunar month." Yan Zhusheng's eyes lit up slightly, and then he tilted his head and asked, "Will uncle and aunt agree?"

"My family definitely has no objection. More people means more fun. It's just two more mouths to feed." Li Luo laughed, "But you have to discuss it with Senior Sister first, and then explain it to your family."

"Yeah." Yan Zhusheng nodded and slowly finished the bowl of wontons. When only the last wonton was left, he fed Li Luo another bite.

The two of them strolled all the way back to the entrance of the community from the breakfast shop. It was not until Li Luo was ready to go home that Yan Zhusheng said goodbye to him and took a taxi home.

When Li Luo returned home, it was already around 8:30 in the morning.

At this time in the living room, Ying Zhicheng was drinking rice porridge and chatting with Li Guohong next to him.

Li Luo glanced at the two doors facing each other, then asked curiously, "Xixi hasn't gotten up yet?"

"I called her just now, but she didn't respond. I opened the door and saw that she was still sleeping soundly." Ying Zhicheng said, "Maybe she is still adjusting to the time difference. I thought I should let her sleep a little longer."

As he spoke, Ying Zhicheng looked at Li Luo meaningfully, which made Li Luo feel guilty. He immediately laughed awkwardly: "So they are going to buy New Year's goods soon, right? Should I go and wake her up?"

"Well, it's almost time now." Ying Zhicheng checked the time, "Thank you for your help."

"No trouble."

After Li Luo finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the door opposite, came to the door of Ying Chanxi's room, and knocked a few times.

The result was the same as Ying Zhicheng's, there was no response.

So Li Luo said "I'm coming in" while pushing open the door of Ying Chanxi's bedroom, and then saw Ying Chanxi sleeping soundly.

Li Luo walked to the bed, squatted down, looked at Ying Chanxi's slightly pouting face while she was sleeping, smiled and reached out to poke it.

Ying Chanxi frowned slightly and muttered something in his sleep that was completely incomprehensible.

Logically speaking, he left Ying Chanxi's room around 1 a.m. last night.

Ying Chanxi said that she would finish the chapter she was reading and then go to bed, but looking at the way she was sleeping, it didn't look like she had only read one chapter.

"Wake up, the sun is shining on your butt." Li Luo called out to Ying Chanxi a few times, but there was no response, which made him a little surprised. "You're not awake yet? You've slept like a pig."

As he spoke, Li Luo reached out and pinched Ying Chanxi's nose.

This time, Ying Chanxi was finally woken up by him. After struggling for a while, his eyelids finally opened slightly.

"Hmm... who is it..."

Ying Chanxi made a confused and innocent sound, and after taking a closer look at who was the person beside the bed, he laughed a few times, perhaps because he thought he was dreaming, and then reached out and touched Li Luo's face.

"Quite similar..." Ying Chanxi stroked Li Luo's face like a nympho, touching here, pinching there, doing whatever she wanted in what she thought was a dream.

It was not until she tried to insert her finger into her nostrils that Li Luo held her messy little hand with a frown on his face: "It's a real person, how can it not look like one?"

After hearing what Li Luo said, Ying Chanxi's confused mind suddenly became clear. He sat up from the bed, blinked and looked at Li Luo, then his face gradually turned red: "You... I... just now..."

"I'm here to wake you up for breakfast." Li Luo stood up and patted his butt, then threw the clothes on the chair onto the bed, "You should get up first, and come across to drink some porridge to fill your stomach later."

"Oh..." Ying Chanxi blinked and watched Li Luo walk out of his bedroom, his ears already red.

Thinking of how he had just touched Li Luo's face, Ying Chanxi blushed and breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I just touched it. If I hadn’t been able to control myself just now... it would have been so embarrassing!
It’s all Li Luo’s fault!
She said she would only finish reading that chapter last night, but the hook at the end of the chapter was so attractive that she couldn't help but turn the page, thinking that she would read one more chapter before going to sleep.

The more I watched, the more fascinated I became.

In particular, Li Luo particularly likes to leave some sentences at the end of each chapter that entice people to turn back the pages, which makes Ying Chanxi unconsciously immersed in it.

By the time she came to her senses, it was already four or five in the morning.

She didn't even remember when she fell asleep.

I just remember that every time I saw Shen Dongdong appear in the scene, I was so happy that I couldn't help but hold the quilt tightly.

But when he saw Mo Qinghan or Jiang Mingyue appear, he immediately frowned and quickly passed by them, not wanting to take any more looks.

Thinking of this, Ying Chanxi puffed up his mouth immediately. He didn't put on his clothes immediately. Instead, he turned his gaze to the bedside table and grabbed Pikachu and Doraemon.

Bang bang, two punches!

Let out a sigh of relief first.
