Chapter 3 Two identical egg pancakes
Actually, there were still two or three shops on the street that were still open.
Lu Zhaoye could have simply left the girl at the shop and waited for her mother to pick her up.
But Lu Zhaoye knew that if that were the case...
He might not have had a better chance to clear up this "misunderstanding" with the girl.
The original owner caused this trouble, what does it have to do with me, a transmigrator?
But I still need to live.
You just pat your butt and ascend to heaven, leaving me to clean up your mess. You should be secretly happy to have encountered a time traveler like me.
"Xu Ziqing, grab my arm."
Lu Zhaoye walked up to her, squatted down, and stretched out his arm.
Xu Ziqing hesitated for a moment, then shakily stretched out her right hand and grabbed Lu Zhaoye's outstretched arm.
It was only then that Lu Zhaoye noticed the girl's face.
She has a classic oval face, round almond-shaped eyes with slightly upturned corners, giving her a very gentle appearance.
Lu Zhaoye sighed inwardly.
Good heavens! I think you've really eaten too many red beans. How could you just take away such a beautiful pair of eyes like that?
In addition, the girl has long, flowing hair, a straight nose, and small lips.
He has the looks of a true "white moonlight" ideal.
"..."
"Or, I'll carry you on my back..."
Seeing the girl's trembling appearance, Lu Zhaoye said something.
"Ah...no!"
Xu Ziqing straightened up, gasped in surprise upon hearing Lu Zhaoye speak, and quickly refused.
"I...I'll just hold your arm."
"Okay, let's go then. Be careful."
"Wait a minute, my backpack."
Lu Zhaoye chuckled, "Don't worry, it's on me. Let's go."
"No need, no need, you carry it for me."
"......"
The May nights are neither too hot nor too cold, and the gentle breeze is very pleasant.
Lu Zhaoye pondered the new memory that had appeared in his mind.
In the early summer of 2021, the original owner of this body, like Xu Ziqing beside her, was a student at Gangcheng No. 2 Middle School.
Their relationship is more complicated.
Xu Ziqing excelled academically at No. 2 Middle School. Although she was blind, her outstanding appearance still attracted the pursuit of many boys.
The one with the closest relationship.
That's Su Cheng, the school's pride and joy.
Lu Zhaoye could tell at a glance that this person had the bearing of an emperor and was definitely not a dragon confined to a pond.
The girl the original owner liked happened to like Su Cheng.
In order to win the favor of his beloved, the original owner brought his underlings to bully Xu Ziqing.
Damn it, it's a melodramatic love triangle!
Lu Zhaoye's brain is completely shut down; he knows exactly what the original owner's final fate would be.
In the end, you'll have nothing left.
You're a gangster boss, why do you have to be a bootlicker? You've really drunk too much garbage.
"...steps."
Lu Zhaoye seemed to be deep in thought, while occasionally turning back to remind him.
He walked very slowly; this was the first time he had ever met a blind person in his two lifetimes.
He also knew why Xu Ziqing had insisted on finding his white cane.
For blind people, a white cane is their eyes.
Just then, Lu Zhaoye suddenly heard a strange gurgling sound, and he turned around in confusion.
Seemingly noticing Lu Zhaoye's actions, Xu Ziqing quickly lowered her head.
However, Lu Zhaoye still noticed the girl's blushing.
Lu Zhaoye's eyes darted around, and he casually asked, "Xu Ziqing, are you hungry?"
I'm not hungry.
"Oh, but I'm hungry."
Lu Zhaoye said, suppressing a laugh.
Xu Ziqing didn't know how to answer, so she finally said something completely nonsensical.
"Big...Big brother, I only have five yuan left."
Lu Zhaoye chuckled, surprised that she actually called him "big brother".
You know what, Wadashi is actually kind of cute like this.
"Okay, then give it to me."
Lu Zhaoye wanted to tease her.
Xu Ziqing took out five yuan from her pocket with her free hand almost without any hesitation.
Lu Zhaoye raised an eyebrow, stopped and turned around to look at him quietly.
"Big brother, this is all I have left."
Xu Ziqing said with some fear, after all, whether she could go home now really depended on him.
Lu Zhaoye didn't reply, but instead asked a question in return.
"If I remember correctly, this is your food money for next week."
Xu Ziqing paused for a moment, then nodded weakly.
"Alright, I told you I wouldn't bully you."
Lu Zhaoye pursed his lips, surprised that it was true.
He felt guilty about the fear in the girl's voice. "Relax, or you'll fall."
Lu Zhaoye continued walking, occasionally muttering words like "be careful," "steps," and "I'm going astray."
Xu Ziqing stuffed the five yuan into her pocket, slowly raised her head, and her opinion of Lu Zhaoye had changed considerably.
For some reason, she felt that Lu Zhaoye was different now.
She seems somewhat different from Lu Zhaoye, who used to bully her secretly.
Could it be... that he's plotting something bad and planning to bully me?
Xu Ziqing's heart jumped again.
She didn't know if her choice was right. What if Lu Zhaoye kidnapped her?
To be honest, girls this age tend to overthink things; their thoughts are always unpredictable and leave people scratching their heads.
It wasn't until an incredibly enticing aroma of food wafted into her nostrils that Xu Ziqing's thoughts vanished without a trace.
"Boss, two egg pancakes, with extra egg and sausage."
Actually, the strange sound just now came from Xu Ziqing's stomach, and Lu Zhaoye certainly heard it.
He also knew that if he gave it to the girl directly, she would most likely refuse.
So he deliberately said, "Oops, I bought one too many."
"Xu Ziqing, can you handle spicy food?"
"what?"
Xu Ziqing, who was standing timidly behind her, was stunned, but the saliva she secretly swallowed betrayed her.
Lu Zhaoye had an "I knew it" look on his face, and said in a feigned fierce tone,
"Stop talking nonsense, can you even handle spicy food?"
"...You can eat just a little bit."
Lu Zhaoye nodded, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.
"Boss, I'd like them mildly spicy."
"......"
Until two fragrant egg pancakes are ready.
"Take it."
Lu Zhaoye handed over a copy, but Xu Ziqing didn't dare to take it at all.
"Don't worry, I don't want your money. If I buy too much, you can eat it for me," Lu Zhaoye said, feigning helplessness.
But Xu Ziqing wasn't stupid; she knew perfectly well that it wasn't a case of buying too much.
Having no other choice, Lu Zhaoye had to resort to his ultimate move.
"You don't want it? Then I'll throw it away. I can't finish two portions anyway."
So, Lu Zhaoye deliberately lifted the arm that the girl was holding onto, as if he was about to throw her away.
"Wait a minute, I..."
Xu Ziqing stammered, her face full of hesitation.
Lu Zhaoye quickly seized the opportunity and stuffed it into the girl's hand.
"Oh, just eat it. I didn't poison you, don't worry."
After saying that, Lu Zhaoye started eating by himself.
"Sit down for a while. If you wait until you get home to eat, it will get cold and won't taste good."
Even if Xu Ziqing were a fool at this moment, she could still feel the concern in Lu Zhaoye's words.
She nodded blankly.
Lu Zhaoye smiled slightly, and much of the worry between his brows disappeared.
"You know what, it's actually pretty good. I haven't had this in ages."
Xu Ziqing sat quietly next to Lu Zhaoye, eating in small bites.
"B-Big brother, why is there meat in my egg pancake?"
"Damn it, the boss gave you extra meat but not me. I have to go and argue with him tomorrow."
Xu Ziqing smiled, a very careful smile, which Lu Zhaoye didn't see.
