Gu Fei rode to the front, keeping a distance from him at an unhurried pace. Jiang Cheng sometimes felt that Gu Fei's keen observation ability and high EQ that prevented him from being too inquisitive about other people's matters really irked him.

He pulled the mask up so that the edge could catch the tears that slid down.

The distance from where they were to Gu Fei's shop was considerably decent, taking only about ten minutes on the bicycle, which was enough. He just followed behind Gu Fei like this, letting his tears flow out as much as he wanted.

He honestly didn't know why he suddenly burst in tears.

He didn't feel like he had the urge to cry at all, and there wasn't anything that made him want to cry either. Even if he no longer had a home, no longer had parents... this kind of mindset wasn't something that had only existed for a day or two. From the day he was told that he was adopted, he already realized that he would never have a home again.

After coming here, this feeling became clearer day by day... so why would he suddenly start crying after saying that he was an orphan?

Sure enough, people are delicate when they are sick.

By the time they arrived at the intersection, he had already stopped crying, and his tears were practically air-dried, leaving only his eyes to feel a little swollen.

After they parked their bicycles at the door of Gu Fei's shop, Gu Fei glanced back at him and quietly exclaimed as if he had seen something frightening: "Aiyo!"

"What's wrong?" Jiang Cheng asked as he leaned the bicycle against the wall.

"I..." Gu Fei hesitated. "I didn't expect you to cry to this point."

Jiang Cheng suddenly wanted to laugh. Even Gu Fei, who was so adept at easing the embarrassment of others, couldn't keep pretending not to have noticed anything any longer. He rubbed his eyes and asked: "Is it that red?"

"They're pretty red," Gu Fei said. "Why don't you wait for me here. I'll help you bring out whatever you need. Li Yan is in there, you know."

"It's okay." Jiang Cheng felt around in his schoolbag, pulled out a glasses case, took out and put on a pair of sunglasses. "I am equipped."

"You look..." Gu Fei stared at him.

"Pretty handsome, right?" Jiang Cheng looked toward the window of the nearby community hospital, "Every time I pass by a display window, I'd always be taken aback by my handsomeness."

"Yes." Gu Fei nodded, "You truly are... very handsome."

When the two of them walked into the shop together, Li Yan was in the middle of two shelves with Gu Miao's skateboard under his feet, having difficulty with moving it forward. Gu Miao was leaning against the checkout counter with her arms folded as she watched on with a face of indifference.

When she caught sight of them coming in, she rushed over to Jiang Cheng's side and looked up at the sunglasses on his face with keen interest.

"You're already bored to this degree..." Gu Fei said.

"I'm just exercising my body," Li Yan scanned Jiang Cheng once over. "Oh, I thought that someone had come to collect protection fees."

"Hand me the money," Jiang Cheng said.
