Chapter 168

Ailian picked up the food in the plate, swallowed it whole, opened her phone with a trace of hope, and the bright numbers on the screen made her want to cry, and the chopsticks in her hand also loosened accordingly.

"It's over, class starts in five minutes......"

Ailian seemed to have her strength drained, her body slumped, and she fell onto the sofa.

Ye Qingfeng blinked his eyes in confusion. He didn't quite understand what the big deal was.

If there's a legitimate reason, being late for a while, the teacher usually won't say anything.

Of course, even without a reason, it doesn't seem like it would be very serious. Just make up an excuse, like reviewing too late last night, oversleeping in the morning, etc., and it would pass.

Or is it that Ailian is actually that kind of "three-good" student?

Ye Qingfeng raised his eyes to look at Ailian's lazy appearance, which radiated a sense of laziness almost every moment, and he twitched his lips.

Looks like he overthought it...... whose good student is like this?

Ye Qingfeng just prepared to soothe Ailian with two sentences, but she spoke first: "Brother Qingfeng~ can you do a good sister a favor?"

Her watery, bright eyes stared straight at him, full of pleading and innocence, pouting her little mouth, and the tone of acting spoiled and cute came out of her mouth, with an attitude that she would cry if he didn't agree.

Must say, Ailian knows how to handle Ye Qingfeng. Ye Qingfeng eats soft but not hard, and under this offensive, it's hard to hold on for three seconds.

"Alright, alright~ what is it, say it!" Ye Qingfeng knew clearly that Ailian was pretending, but his heart softened, and he still agreed.

Ailian saw Ye Qingfeng agree, and the next second she withdrew the expression she had pretended, and with that tone of finding it troublesome, asked him to help call the teacher.

Ye Qingfeng (||? _?): Did she change her face so quickly?

The things afterward followed logically. After Ye Qingfeng finished calling the teacher, seeing that there was still time, he proposed to make her a lunch to take to school.

Ailian didn't think much at the time and agreed casually. Watching Ye Qingfeng walk into the kitchen again, she curled up on the sofa and started scrolling through her phone lazily.

However, listening to the busy sounds coming from the kitchen, Ailian, for some reason, slowly curled her lips.

After he finished, he handed over the lunch box, and Ailian put it into her bag casually, arriving at school under his escort.

Actually, to her, eating the lunch Ye Qingfeng made with his own hands and eating lunch in the school cafeteria, there was no difference between the two.

If one had to say, one costs money, and the other is Ye Qingfeng's love bento.

Of course, if she were to choose, she would definitely choose the latter.

But when she saw the carefully prepared lunch in the lunch box, the heart in the deepest part of Ailian's heart trembled slightly.

She became inexplicably excited, reached out to cover her chest, trying to soothe her rapidly beating heart.

"Qingfeng...... thank you......" she said silently in her heart, "letting me feel the feeling of family once again......"

At this time, outside the school, the system's prompt sound suddenly rang in Ye Qingfeng's mind.

【Ding! Ailian's favorability increased by 5%】

【Current favorability: 80%】

【Ding! Reward ten lottery chances】

He narrowed his eyes in confusion. Although he didn't know why, let's just assume Ailian was secretly thinking of him!

Hehe~!

Ye Qingfeng didn't rush back to the Random Rabbit House, but went directly to the video store to complete the daily commission.

Fortunately, there was only one commission today, which he finished in the morning. Now, he was eating lunch outside with Ling and Wise.

Speaking of which, the hot spring voucher he had prepared for Ling never had a chance to be brought up. Fortunately, the system was user-friendly and didn't set a deadline, so there was no need to be too anxious about this matter.

During the meal, they mentioned the experience of going to Belobog Heavy Industries a few days ago, and a series of things happened.

Ye Qingfeng rarely took an interest in this, listening to them recount the ins and outs of the whole matter.

After the meal, seeing there were no commissions to do, Ye Qingfeng thought about going for a stroll on the street.

After saying goodbye to Ling and Wise, he left alone, planning to go pick up Ailian at school when the time was right, to deal with the surprise home visit proposed by the teacher.

While strolling, he arrived at Lumina Square.

Ye Qingfeng thought that since he was already here, he might as well go see Zhu Yuan and Senior Qing Yi. Just as he took out his phone and prepared to contact the two, a call happened to come in.

Seeing the two big characters "Yuan Bao" on the phone screen, he instantly felt incomparably comfortable.

As expected of Yuan Bao! Just as he was thinking of finding her, the call came. Is this the legendary telepathy?

Ye Qingfeng answered the call decisively, just preparing to greet her, when the person on the other end spoke first:

"Qing... Qingfeng! Do you have time now? I've encountered some trouble, and I can only find you!"

Zhu Yuan's tone was flustered, even somewhat slurred. Besides her voice, it was also very noisy over there, and he could vaguely hear Senior Qing Yi's voice.

"Er...... where are you guys? Shall I go find you now?"

Ye Qingfeng froze, taking about two or three seconds to come to his senses, and asked straight to the point.

Listening to Zhu Yuan's tone, the matter should be quite urgent. But before that, her identity was still a police officer, and she wouldn't find him if she encountered something she couldn't solve, and she wouldn't need to find him if she could solve it easily.

So, it's highly likely not official business, then what they encountered should be private matters.

Maybe they were harassed by some pervert, and it wasn't convenient to take action directly, so they could only call him over to help.

Zhu Yuan quickly reported an address, and without waiting for Ye Qingfeng's reply, hung up the phone in a hurry the next second.

He shrugged his shoulders helplessly.

The address Zhu Yuan reported happened to be near Lumina Square. That place, as far as he knew, had sparse crowds, and seemed to be some kind of large market.

Ye Qingfeng hurriedly quickened his pace, hailed a taxi, and headed toward the destination.

Just in case, he let the driver drop him off early. Not for anything else, but what if they couldn't endure it anymore and were beating up the pervert, and the driver happened to see this scene, accidentally took out his phone to record, and accidentally posted it online......

In short, Zhu Yuan couldn't be asking him to go over and help hide a corpse, right? Just in case, just in case!

After getting out of the car, Ye Qingfeng took out a sum of Denny and handed it to the driver, walking slowly toward the destination.

Confirming the taxi had turned around, only then did he quicken his pace and move forward.

Spending a few minutes, he arrived at the location Zhu Yuan had given.

Before even getting close, he heard arguing sounds coming from ahead, not the kind where two people point at each other and curse, but somewhat similar to the kind where Ling and Wise were fighting over him before.

Ye Qingfeng didn't rush over, but looked around, confirmed there were no other people nearby, and only then walked toward the source of the sound.

If he remembered correctly, if you keep walking forward on this road, it's the Outer Ring, but his current position was still quite far away.

There seemed to be a market in the middle of this road. According to Nico, the people inside were a mixed bag, and the things sold were also varied.

It sounded similar to the markets of his past life, but there were very obvious differences, and there were even some contraband items sold inside.

Simply put, if there's something you want to find, coming here is never wrong!

However, the place he mentioned was still some distance from his current position, relatively speaking, it would be closer to the Outer Ring.

The place he was in was also still within New Eridu, but this place was relatively desolate.
