After Shen Yubai's message came out, not only Ban Shu and the others were shocked and surprised, but also Xu Chuning. She didn't expect Shen Yubai to tell them so bluntly and directly that he had arrived here.

Although, it seems that there is nothing to hide. They are both innocent.

But for some reason, when Xu Chu Ning looked at the words he posted in the group, he felt that something was wrong.

She stared at her phone for a while, and when Deng Xitong and Yu Gaoyi also raised their heads in question, she looked up at the person in front of her, "You——"

"Me what?" Shen Yubai didn't seem to think there was anything inappropriate and looked at her with a frank expression.

After a few seconds, Xu Chu Ning withdrew his gaze from his face and said vaguely, "Nothing."

Maybe she was overthinking it.

Shen Yubai raised his eyebrows when she didn't notice, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

The group was shocked for a while, but calmed down after Shen Yubai said he had something to say.

Xu Chuning stopped looking at the group. Deng Xitong and Cheng Mingyin @ her in the small group, asking her what Shen Yubai had come here for in advance and whether they were together now.

I have to say, girls’ intuition is always accurate.

Xu Chu Ning knew that she couldn't hide it from the two of them, and she didn't think there was anything to hide, so she frankly admitted: "Well, I needed his help, so he came here first."

Cheng Mingyin was curious: [What's the matter? ]

Xu Chuning: [He helped me contact the police here before to find my sister.]

Almost all the students who often go to the store to buy breakfast and eat have seen the missing person notice posted at the door of the store, and Cheng Mingyin and Deng Xitong are no exception.

After hearing her say this, the two of them suddenly realized: [So that's how it is. ]

They thought that these two people were doing something secretly without anyone's knowledge.

Xu Chuning: [Yes, please tell me when you have bought the tickets, and I will pick you up when the time comes.]

Deng Xitong: [Okay, by the way, does your grandma have any favorite food? I want to bring her a gift.]

Xu Chu Ning smiled to himself: [You just need to come, you don’t need to bring any gifts.]

Cheng Mingyin: [No, we still need a small gift. How about we buy some fruit? What kind of fruit does grandma like to eat? ]

Xu Chuning thought for a moment and knew that they would definitely not agree to not buy anything. She thought about it and told them: [Her teeth are not very good, so just buy softer fruits.]

The two agreed.

After chatting with the two of them for a while, Xu Chuning called You Shuzhen and told her that he would go back tomorrow.

You Shuzhen agreed, and finally asked, "Are you coming back alone?"

Xu Chu Ning said subconsciously: "Yes."

You Shuzhen hesitated to speak, but finally asked, "Xiao Shen is not coming back with you?"

"..." Xu Chu Ning paused, and said a little helplessly, "Mom, don't you think it's inappropriate for him to go back with me?"

You Shuzhen smiled, "What are you afraid of? You are classmates."

Xu Chu Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Aren't you afraid of the neighbors gossiping?"

She herself didn't care, but she didn't want the gossip to reach the ears of You Shuzhen and her grandmother.

You Shuzhen chuckled: "Other people have their own mouths, they can say whatever they want, we have no right to control it."

"No," Xu Chu Ning thought for a while, "Xitong and the others will come the day after tomorrow. Let him wait in Linxi for a day and come to Pingning with Xitong and the others."

After hearing what she said, You Shuzhen had no objection: "Okay, will Xitong and the others come the day after tomorrow? How many classmates? You tell mom first, I'll clean up the vacant room first."

Xu Chuning: "I'll come back tomorrow and help you clean up."

"No need," You Shuzhen refused her, "Mom will clean two rooms first."

Xu Chuning knew that no one could change You Shuzhen's decision. She had no choice but to tell her who would be coming.

In fact, they were all classmates that You Shuzhen was very familiar with. They often went to the small shop to eat, and You Shuzhen could recognize them all a long time ago.

The mother and daughter chatted for a long time before hanging up the phone.

When she hung up the phone, Xu Chu Ning realized that it was already past six in the evening. She was thinking about whether to ask Shen Yubai about dinner, but Shen Yubai sent her a message first.

After dinner, Brother Wang said he had a meeting with friends and left first.

In an instant, only Xu Chuning and Shen Yubai were left together.

Their eyes suddenly met, and Xu Chu Ning pursed her lips slightly, "Do you want to go back to the hotel, or go shopping?"

Shen Yubai lowered his eyes, "Is there any fun place?"

Xu Chuning spoke truthfully, "I haven't been to Linxi very often."

Every time I come here, I just pass by and take a bus, and my stay is very short.

Shen Yubai raised his eyes, "Not familiar at all?"

"Not really." Xu Chu Ning looked around and pointed to the left, "I remember there is a park over there, do you want to go and see it?"

Shen Yubai: "Sure."

To prevent Shen Yubai from being too disappointed, Xu Chuning gave him a heads-up in advance, "But the parks here can't be compared to the parks in Jiangcheng."

Hearing this, Shen Yubai smiled: "What are you worried about?"

Xu Chu Ning: "I'm afraid you'd mind."

Shen Yubai was startled, and looked at her deeply, his voice cold, "No."

How could he care about this?

In the past, he might have, but now he has long been able to accept these things.

After hearing Shen Yubai's answer, Xu Chu Ning said nothing more. She walked side by side with him to the park not far away. The summer evening breeze blew, bringing a hint of coolness.

The two walked very close to each other, and a gust of wind blew Xu Chuning's hair onto Shen Yubai's shoulders. Under the bright street lights, Shen Yubai lowered his eyes and looked at the long black hair on his shoulders. His steps paused for a second. Then, he followed her steps again and walked forward. As for the hair that fell on his shoulders and was blown up and down by the wind, he didn't care.

He let the hair fall on his shoulders and on his heart, creating ripples.

……

The park is really small, and the various recreational facilities are not complete.

However, there are more adults and children playing here at night, and there are vendors selling snacks at the entrance of the park.

Xu Chu Ning and Shen Yu Bai walked in, climbed a few steps, and saw a large area above the park where a movie was playing. There were many people sitting in front of the movie.

Xu Chuning never thought that she and Shen Yubai would encounter such a good thing when they came here tonight.

She subconsciously turned her head to look at the person next to her. Just as she was about to ask him if he wanted to watch a movie, Shen Yubai spoke first, "Do you want to watch a movie?"

Xu Chu Ning nodded slightly, "But there is no place to sit here, do you mind?"

"..." Shen Yubai was helpless and glanced at her with resentful eyes, "In your heart, am I such a picky person?"

Xu Chuning did not answer.

Shen Yubai looked around and pulled Xu Chuning to sit on the stone steps on both sides. "How about we watch from here?"

Xu Chuning hummed softly: "Okay."

The two sat down and started watching the first movie they had ever watched together.
