Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

"What?"

Xi Yizai laughed a few times and said, "You are suffering from lovesickness and being torn apart by love. This is the first time I see you like this. Are you poisoned, or what?"

Yun Jixing didn't explain much to Xi Yizai, and laughed with him. After laughing, he took out a telescope from his bag and used it to carefully observe the surrounding situation.

From this position, he could clearly see the situation at the front door of Yu Ru's house. Yu Ru's house was a square building built by the farm, with two floors. The door of the first floor was closed, and the curtains of the balcony on the second floor were also drawn tightly.

I couldn't see anything and didn't know if anyone was home.

Seeing Yun Jixing even using a telescope to look at it, Xi Yizai couldn't help but find it a little funny, "Xiao Xin, you are like this... I really have reason to suspect that you have become a voyeur, so did you see that girl?"

Yunjixing stared at the scene in the telescope without moving, "No, she lives in this area, but I don't know which house. Yizai, let's wait here until seven o'clock in the evening. If we don't see her, we'll go back, okay?"

"no problem."

The two waited in the car until noon, when someone finally came to Yu Ru's door.

The person who came was Yu Ru's grandmother. She was carrying a hoe on her shoulder and wearing a pair of muddy rain boots. It seemed that she had just finished working.

There are some undeveloped lands in this small town, and no one usually takes care of them. The residents living around those lands will cultivate the land nearby to grow vegetables. Grandma Yu Ru is one of them.

Grandma Yu Ru put down the hoe, took off her shoes, got some water from the hand-cranked well at the door to wash her feet, then took out the key to open the door.

Seeing this scene, Yun Jixing subconsciously slowed down his breathing. Soon, the door was opened. From the angle he was standing at, he could not see the situation inside the living room.

He asked Xi Yizai to back the car up a distance, so that he could see the situation inside Yu Ru's house. Except for Yu Ru's grandmother, there was no one inside.

Seeing how seriously he was looking, Xi Yizai thought that the girl had appeared, so he followed his gaze, but found nothing.

After waiting here until one o'clock, the two went to the market to find a place to eat. After eating, they immediately returned to Yu Ru's house to wait.

After waiting for several hours, the sun was about to set and the sky had darkened, but there was no sign of Yu Ru. Yun Jixing couldn't help but wonder if Yu Ru was not at home.

Time soon came to seven o'clock in the evening, and Yu Ru still did not show up.

In the end, he had no choice but to go back home with Xi Yizai.

"Yiya, let's go back. She may not be home."

He wanted to stay here for one night and wait until tomorrow morning to see what happens, but Xi Yizai was here too, and there was no reason for him to force others to stay here with him.

Seeing Yun Jixing looked very lost, Xi Yizai comforted him, "Xiao Xin, if you want to come here next time, just find me and I will take you out right away."

"Okay." Yun Jixing nodded with a smile on his face.

Not long after they left, a thin figure walked out of Yu Ru's house. If Yun Jixing was still there, he would definitely cheer with excitement when he saw her.

……

There was some traffic jam on the way back, and the two of them didn't get home until nearly eleven o'clock.

Chi Qinghuai asked the aunt at home to leave some food for Yun Jixing. After he returned home, he went to the kitchen to eat a simple meal and then went straight back to his room to rest.

"Aru, when will you show up..."

Yun Jixing was lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling, feeling sad. He had clearly been to Yu Ru's home today, it was such a close distance, but he still didn't see Yu Ru.

He missed her so much that for a moment he wanted to just visit her at her house, or just linger at the door, but that would seem too deliberate, too sneaky.

Yun Jixing really hoped that time would pass faster, so that he could get to know Yu Ru earlier. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally calmed down and went to sleep.

……

Time flies, summer vacation is over soon, and it is time for Yunjixing to return to school.

Since the last time he and Xi Yizai went to the vicinity of Yu Ru's home, he took a taxi there several times in the following days, but still did not see Yu Ru.

He had a new plan. He decided to wait for Yu Ru to go to school and wait at her school gate. In her previous life, Yu Ru told him a lot about her past, so he knew where Yu Ru's high school was.

He has now followed the official account of Yu Ru School, which publishes the students' school start times. If there are holidays, it will also publish some holiday times, so he can just look for it according to these times.
