Moonlight falls into my arms

Chapter 71 Do you want to... meet me?

"Ah, I'm finally done drawing." Ruan Li stretched lazily with her eyes closed.

I didn't expect her to draw for so long.

Wearing headphones made her ear canals ache a little, so Ruan Li opened her phone to check the time.

"It's so late..." She immediately saw the message Jiang Yuci had sent her. "What does this mean..."

Could it be that he no longer wants to take care of that clump of grass and wants to return it?

Ruan Li sent a message.

-Have you left?

She picked up her bag and stood up, but there was no reply from the other end.

I wonder if they've already gone back.

Ruan Li gripped the strap of her canvas bag tightly as she ran back.

I was wearing a fleece-lined wool sweater, and I started sweating very quickly.

In one breath, he crossed the road and ran to his building.

Looking around, he couldn't spot Jiang Yuci.

They've probably gone back.

Ruan Li opened her phone, and the message she had sent was still displayed.

She pressed down her bangs that were flying up and sighed.

The phone in my palm vibrated.

This message displays a stranger's request to add a friend.

Ruan Li glanced at it; the contact name on the other end was Huo Xingzhou.

Huo Xingzhou.

She hesitated for a moment before clicking "agree".

-Is there something you need?

She had suspected Jiang Yuci of having ill intentions this afternoon, so what was the meaning of adding her now?

-Would you hurt him?

Ruan Li frowned slightly upon reading these words. Was she going to hurt Jiang Yuci?

Ruan Li typed out the question very seriously.

Why do you think I would hurt him?

-Because it seems, and your appearance is very coincidental.

Ruan Li: ......

The person on the other end asked her again who the person behind her was.

Ruan Li: ......

baffling.

-Actually, I'm a spy.

After she sent the message, she blocked Huo Xingzhou.

"He's got a pig's brain stuck in his ears, always suspicious and doubting me. I look like a good person, okay?"

Ruan Li turned off her phone.

Huo Xingzhou was still typing.

-Do you want to see something good? Something about Jiang Yuci and you. From now on, don't call me "uncle," call me "brother," and I'll send it to you.

He sent it over triumphantly.

He had expected to receive Ruan Li's desperate pleas.

Unexpectedly, I received a red exclamation mark.

"...What an impolite child..." Huo Xingzhou gritted his teeth, looking at Jiang Yuci, who was fast asleep beside him: "Is this the kind of child you raised?"

After Ruan Li returned home, she called the contact information that Jiang Yu had given her teacher.

After two calls, the call was finally answered.

"Hello," Ruan Li asked tentatively.

"็ Hello Who are you?"

Ruan Li heard a bit of noise over there.

"Hello, Teacher Feng, my name is Ruan Li..."

Ruan Li told the teacher which grade and class she was in, and the teacher asked, "Do you...remember me?"

There was no sound from the other end.

The phone call was disconnected.

"Hello?" Ruan Li tried dialing again.

If you find that you can't get through, it's very likely that the other party has blocked you.

"...Why did you hang up the phone...?"

After several unsuccessful attempts to call, Ruan Li went to bed.

I thought there was hope.

Drop drop-

Just as Ruan Li was drifting off to sleep, a sound came from inside the room.

The sky outside the window was dark and thick. The room was dark, and only a few outlines could be seen through the pale moonlight.

There was a small red dot flashing on the table.

Ruan Li propped herself up and, standing at the desk, could see the small, constantly flashing dots.

It was a phone watch that Jiang Yuci bought for her.

The power is about to run out.

After getting a cell phone, Ruan Li rarely touched it anymore, and it just sat in a corner collecting dust.

There's no need to charge things that aren't being used.

She picked up her phone and pressed the power button.

The small square screen displays a low battery warning.

This is related to her and Jiang Yuci. Last time, Jiang Yuci found someone to take her to the hospital, and this watch played a big part in that.

Ruan Li clenched her fists tightly and walked towards the bedside, pressing the light switch with one hand.

The room lights up.

She looked around blankly.

Charging cable......

Ruan Li rummaged through boxes and cabinets, finding that she had previously piled up many of her odds and ends in a small box for convenience.

Ruan Li hugged the box and emptied its contents.

But it had everything inside, including some useless little toys, tags, hair clips, and hair ties that she had bought.

I searched everywhere but couldn't find a charging cable.

She pressed her head; it hurt a little.

Ruan Li sniffed. "When will this cold get better?"

The phone on the bed lit up briefly. Ruan Li casually sat on the floor at the foot of the bed, picked up the phone, and glanced at it.

The big shot messaged her to ask if she was asleep.

Ruan Li felt that he had been acting a little strange lately.

Logically, if she wants to play games, she should just say "log in," and she'll go if she has time, otherwise she won't. There was never any of this nonsense before.

Ruan Li typed "no" and continued rummaging through the wardrobe, taking out all the clothes and searching in the pockets.

The phone rang twice more.

Ruan Li ignored it and searched through the wardrobe, sweating profusely and her legs going numb from squatting.

He plopped down on the ground and picked up his phone to check messages.

Big shot:

Go to bed early and don't stay up late.

Are you asleep?

Ruan Li sent a message to ask:

- When have you ever been human? You stay up all night every day, go to bed at 5 a.m., and get up at 5 p.m., and you still tell me not to stay up late...

The other side responded with silence.

-I'm healthy and strong, unlike you, who can die from staying up all night.

Ruan Li sent a question mark.

She remembered that she hadn't told the big boss that she had stayed up all night and ended up in the hospital.

How could she possibly offer him something to laugh at?

- Last time you left halfway through a fight, I guessed you were going to die suddenly.

Ruan Li wiped away her sweat.

Don't worry, I'm alive and well, and I can even steal your kills.

The other end sent a strange message:

I've decided to stop staying up late from now on.

Ruan Li: ? What does this have to do with me?

Boss: You're not allowed to stay up late either.

Ruan Li: ? Where is justice?

Boss: Otherwise I won't let you steal my kills.

Ruan Li chuckled and replied with an "okay".

She doesn't plan to stay up late anymore; going to bed early and waking up early is good for your health!

Ruan Li:

-I just exercised a lot and I'm very tired now, so I definitely won't stay up late.

Big shot:

Didn't you say you would never exercise?

Cheng Yu stood on the balcony, looking at the chat box on her phone.

That's why I mistook her for someone else at the restaurant that time.

Who would have thought someone who eats all day and doesn't exercise could be so thin?

The image of Ruan Li lying in the hospital bed that day involuntarily appeared in my mind.

Her skin was very fair, but not a lifeless white; it was like a transparent, lustrous pearl, immediately noticeable.

Her pupils were now amber, and being looked at by her felt like being gently enveloped in warm sunlight.

-[photo]

Ruan Li sent me a photo of the charging port.

- I'm looking for a charging cable that can charge this.

Cheng Yu looked at the hole above.

-I have.

At school, using your phone will get it confiscated, so Cheng Yu bought one of those smart phone watches that can play music, games, and novels.

Ruan Li Hui:

- You can't possibly throw it to me through the internet cable, can you?

Cheng Yu pressed his hands against the railing, his shoulders and neck hunched, looking at the building opposite. Lights were on in every house, but he couldn't tell which one belonged to Ruan Li.

Would you like to... meet me?

Cheng Yu's hand tapped randomly, filling a whole row with periods, then deleting them, feeling his heart pounding as the message was sent through his fingertips.

Meet......

Cheng Yu really wants to see her now, to know if her cold is any better, and if her throat still hurts.

He can give her the charging cable so she doesn't have to go through the trouble of looking for it again.

Besides, he's very close to her now; if she agrees, he can run there and see her in just a few minutes.

Cheng Yu propped himself up on his elbow, his palms slightly sweaty.

What should I say and do when I see her?

His mind was completely blank.

Many people at school confessed their feelings to him and handed him love letters, but he was too lazy to read them.

I don't understand how anyone could write such boring and childish things.

But now, he actually wants to search online for how to describe the beauty of a girl.

He wanted to write down how he felt about Ruan Li.

Give it to her when we meet.

Cheng Yu thought for a moment.

"What are you doing."

Cheng Yu flinched and looked back, "What are you doing!"

Li Luo had just finished washing her hair, a white towel draped around her neck to dry it. "You were acting really weird just now. I thought you were possessed by a ghost. When you smiled just now, you looked like the kind of expression a villain in a war drama would have when he sees a pretty girl."

Cheng Yu: "......"

"Get out of here!"

"This is my home, if you want to get out, then get out," Li Luo scoffed.

He then sent a voice message to his friend on the other end of the phone: "Let me tell you, a big idiot has come to my house."

Cheng Yu: "...I live at my uncle's house, what does that have to do with you?"

"He's my brother."

"He is my uncle."

“…” Li Luo rolled her eyes: “I’m too lazy to talk to someone like you who only gets 30 points on a Chinese test.”

"I didn't write it then. If I were serious, do you think you could still get first place? I'm just playing around with it."

Cheng Yu looked down; there was still no reply from the other end.

He wasn't in the mood to talk to Li Luo, that storm mushroom, for the time being.

Instead, they waited for their own news.

Li Luo glanced at him and smiled: "With me here, the first place will never change."

Ruan Li looked at the messages on her phone, gritted her teeth, bit her hand, walked over, and then walked back.

Finally, three question marks were slowly typed out.

Ruan Li: ? ? ?

After sending it, exit the interface with the expert and send a voice message to Pear.

The tone was calm.

"What a coincidence, I just ran into a complete idiot too."

Cheng Yu looked at the three greetings sent from the other end.

He's all show and no substance, his heart is shattered.

Li Luo was still nagging in his ear.

He glanced over there.

Just then, Li Luo opened a voice message sent by a friend.

"What a coincidence, I just ran into a complete idiot too."

Cheng Yu was stunned for a moment. "What?"

Li Luo gave the middle finger: "You big idiot."

She turned around, holding her phone in one hand and a handkerchief in the other to wipe her hair.

Cheng Yu frowned slightly. "Who was that just now?"

Her voice sounds a bit like Ruan Li's.

"My friend? You don't even know him."

After hearing this, Cheng Yu didn't think much of it and looked down at his phone.

Li Luo, being a good student, should not have friends in his social circle.

Ruan Li isn't studying anymore, so it probably isn't her.
