Oh, dear! Fish me again

At night, the dead city gradually wakes up, with countless restless souls stirring.

Gu Chiqi came out of the gymnasium, walked to the self-service vending machine at the intersection, bought a bottle of water, and drank it in big gulps with his head tilted back.

He was wearing a loose T-shirt and shorts, with a black sports jacket loosely tied around his waist, and a pair of limited edition co-branded basketball shoes on his feet.

As she tilted her head back, the hem of her T-shirt was pulled up, revealing her slender waist.

His short, stiff black hair had just been showered and wasn't dry yet, so he wiped it roughly and placed it on his model-like face, turning it into a handsome American-style front spiky hair, with even the ends of his hair looking spirited.

Gu Chiqi drank up a bottle of water and threw the empty bottle into the trash can nearby.

Just as he was about to turn around, a girl suddenly fell at his feet.

*

"ah..."

From the sound, I knew it must have been a pretty painful fall.

The girl on the ground let out a soft cry and inadvertently glanced up at the boy with the cotton swab. Her eyes immediately lit up as if she had seen a life-saving straw.

Gu Chiqi paused unconsciously because this girl was really pretty.

In this moment of hesitation, the girl stood up and suddenly threw herself into his arms.

"Brother...can you help me?"

Her voice has a strong Jiangnan accent, soft and sweet, and seems to have a bewitching power that makes people irresistible.

Gu Chiqi's body was stiff, somewhat confused.

At this moment, a chaotic sound of footsteps came from the small street on the right. The girl in his arms shrank back in fear and bit her lip.

She raised her head and looked at Gu Chiqi cautiously. Suddenly, she reached out, pulled off the sports jacket from his waist, and quickly put it on herself.

At the same time, she raised her hand and pulled off the ponytail tie at the back of her head. As her long hair fell down, she tiptoed and buried her feet in Gu Chiqi's shoulders and neck.

"Hold my waist..." she whispered.

Gu Chiqi swallowed and without thinking, he put his arms around her.

*

"Fuck! Where's that girl? Why is she running so fast?"

"Damn it, she doesn't even give me face. I'll catch her crying!"

"But bro, that chick is amazing, her waist is so thin, I feel like I can hold it with one hand!"

"It's obvious that he is from out of town..."

Four or five burly hooligans ran out from the side street, looking for something.

Obviously, he was looking for the girl in his arms.

They looked around and saw a young couple next to the vending machine and took a closer look at them.

The woman’s clothes aren’t right, and her hairstyle doesn’t match either.

One of the men stood on tiptoe to take a look, then stepped forward with some suspicion. Just as he stretched out his hand to pat Gu Chiqi's shoulder, he was stopped by the eldest brother behind him.

Big brother has a lot of experience in the underworld. This kid's outfit may seem casual, but it's actually ridiculously expensive.

His hair was still wet, and he had obviously just come out of the high-end private gym behind him. He must be a rich kid living nearby, so it’s best not to mess with him.

Several people exchanged colors and continued to chase forward without any doubt.

*

After the people walked away, Gu Chiqi breathed a sigh of relief.

This was the first time he was so close to a girl, and he felt a little helpless.

The girl put her arms around his shoulders, put her face close to his ear, and her body trembled slightly with fear.

Gu Chiqi lowered his head and saw only her thick and curled eyelashes, delicate and small nose tip and chin, and the fragile and slender side neck line.

There is a faint fragrance lingering in the nose, which is obviously not the smell of perfume, but the fresh scent of flowers after the rain.

It's the smell of her body.

It smelled quite good, as if possessed, and he unconsciously moved closer and sniffed it carefully.

*

Tang Shu quietly glanced over Gu Chiqi's shoulder and let out a breath.

A faint stream of air flowed onto the boy's neck, causing an itch.

She unclasped her hands and took a step back.

"Thank you, brother~"

Then he took off his sports jacket and handed it back to Gu Chiqi.

Gu Chiqi took it, looked at her, and nodded coolly.

"Oh, nothing..."

Tang Shu raised her head and smiled, "Brother helped me, I should have treated you to a drink, but I ran too fast just now, and my wallet and phone were left in that barbecue restaurant."

She is incredibly pretty, speaks in a sweet voice and smiles very cutely.

Gu Chiqi immediately waved his hand, "No, don't take it to heart..."

He glanced at the ground and noticed the travel bag the girl had thrown into the shadow of the vending machine.

Northerners are enthusiastic and cheerful, so he asked Tang Shu,

"You're alone so late? Are you traveling to City A?"

"No," Tang Shu's face showed a hint of disappointment, "My parents are gone, so I came to seek refuge with my sister... But I was a little late, and No. 1 Middle School was over, so I couldn't find her."

"No.1 Middle School? What a coincidence! I am studying at No.1 Middle School."

Gu Chiqi asked in surprise, "What's your sister's name? Maybe I know her."

"Really?" The girl covered her mouth in surprise. "Her name is Tang Jiali...Do you know her, brother?"

Tang Jiali....

Gu Chiqi frowned, this was too much of a coincidence.

Not only did he know her, he was in the same class with her.

Tang Jiali joined the class at the beginning of this semester. My family told me that she was the Tang family’s daughter who went missing more than ten years ago and was only found last month.

How come there is a younger sister suddenly?

Gu Chiqi glanced at his watch. It was almost eleven o'clock.

"I'll take you to the Tang family?"

Tang Shu shook her head and explained in a depressed mood.

"I can't go to the Tang family, it's really inconvenient... Forget it, I'll go to No. 1 Middle School to find my sister tomorrow... Thank you brother for today, don't worry about me~"

"Row."

Gu Chiqi shrugged, tied his coat back around his waist, glanced at the traffic light, and strode across the road.

When he got downstairs of his house, he turned around and looked at the vending machine as if possessed by a ghost.

The petite girl stood next to her luggage bag, looking up at the street light in a daze.

The street light shone on her from above, making her look helpless and pitiful.

Recalling the brief conversation just now, my parents are gone, and my wallet is lost...

It cannot be said that such foreign little white rabbits are very dangerous on the streets in the middle of the night. It can only be said that they are extremely dangerous.

Damn, what's going on? I care so much...

51, 52, 53...

Tang Shu leaned against the wall, waiting leisurely.

When I counted to 75, the boy finally ran back quickly.

"you..."

Gu Chiqi coughed and said, "Would you like to stay at my house for one night and go to No. 1 Middle School with me tomorrow?"

"Is it really possible?"

The pretty girl's eyes were sparkling and full of joy.

"Yes," Gu Chiqi nodded, "I live alone."

"Okay~"

Tang Shu excitedly stepped forward, took Gu Chiqi's arm, and pressed her entire upper body against him.

"Brother, you are so nice~"

The next second, she seemed to realize belatedly that her behavior had gone a little too far. She stuck out her tongue embarrassedly, let go of his arm, and took a step back.

Gu Chiqi only felt that his entire left arm was numb, and he looked away, not daring to look at her.

He bent down, picked up the luggage bag on the ground, and walked in front with a cool look on his face.

"Let's go."

"Ok!"
