Near noon, the sky of the amusement park is bright.

Mu Ruqing took the two cones she just bought, found Zhong Wan sitting on the bench, stood in front of her, and handed out a cone: "Here."

Zhong Wan stretched out her hand.

Snapped-

The cone was knocked over to the ground.

Mu Ruqing was not angry, she just smiled and handed her the other cone in her hand: "Don't make trouble."

Zhong Wan sneered: "Do you think that if you bring me to the amusement park and buy me something, I can pretend that nothing happened?"

Mu Ruqing sat down beside Zhong Wan, took a sip of the cone that Zhong Wan didn't want, "Wan Wan, I just want you to be happy."

Zhong Wan couldn't help but ask, "Why did you fire Li Fan?"

Li Fan is a cook in the cafeteria of Mu's Company. His family is poor and he has never read any books. He is very simple and simple, and he smiles silly to all the employees.

During the few seconds of lunch every day, Zhong Wan hurriedly glanced at his smile, and only a little sunshine would briefly shine in the heart shrouded in haze.

Zhong Wan asked, "Is it really just because he gave me an extra spoonful of rice?"

Mu Ruqing swallowed the ice cream in her mouth, "I should have the final say on how much you eat. If you want to eat an extra scoop, you should tell me first, and I will ask him to add it before he can add it."

Zhong Wan's chest was dull for a while, and she was almost suffocating.

She smiled bitterly: "Mu Ruqing, you are really sick."

Mu Ruqing ate the cone in his hand expressionlessly.

After the cones were eaten, the sun went down a bit.

Mu Ruqing took out a tissue and wiped her hands clean, looked at Zhong Wan, and softened her voice: "Are you hungry, the restaurant in the garden is very good, shall we go to lunch?"

Zhong Wan did not speak.

Mu Ruqing took her hand strongly and walked towards the restaurant that she had been optimistic about.

All the questions she asked Zhong Wan seemed to be just meaningless cutscenes.

Zhou Zhenyue rode her bicycle very steadily, and Mu Xueyi, who was stable enough in the back seat, began to feel sleepy.

Mu Xueyi was in a daze, and suddenly woke up, only to find that her face had been attached to Zhou Zhenyue's back.

Zhou Zhenyue nodded sideways as she rode, her pupils slid out of the corner of her eyes and glanced at Mu Xueyi, "Awake?"

Mu Xueyi wiped her hot cheeks with the back of her hand, feeling a little embarrassed: "...I didn't doze off on purpose."

With a creak, the car stopped.

Zhou Zhenyue got out of the car and pushed it to the bench beside the road. In the bright noon sun, a fine layer of sweat could be seen on her forehead.

Mu Xueyi took out a tissue and handed it over, her lowered eyebrows were gentle and gentle, "Tired of riding?"

Zhou Zhenyue wiped her sweat with a tissue and said softly, "I'm not tired, the sun is shining."

Mu Xueyi: "I'll buy you a bottle of water."

Zhou Zhenyue took out her mobile phone, unlocked the password, and opened the QR code payment page after the setting screen was always on.

She raised her phone to Mu Xueyi: "Take it and sweep it."

Mu Xueyi smiled lightly: "No need, I still have the money to buy water."

Zhou Zhenyue picked up the bag containing Mu Xueyi's mobile phone and handed it over.

Mu Xueyi waved his hand: "I don't need a mobile phone, I still have some coins, which I just spent."

It was said that it was for the convenience of spending coins. In fact, only Mu Xueyi knew that she had no money in her mobile phone.

Zhou Zhenyue looked at Mu Xueyi's back as she walked further and further away.

She lost her mind for a while, then smiled helplessly, and turned off the screen of her phone.

The amusement park has just opened, the traffic is large, and the convenience stores are also expensive. Mu Xueyi thought that the price of water would not exceed ten yuan, but when she asked about the price of several bottles of drinks, it was far more than the money in her pocket. When asked about the cheapest mineral water, she had to ask for ten yuan. Five yuan a bottle.

She took out all the odds and ends in her pocket and put them on the counter to count them one by one.

As he was counting, he suddenly heard a familiar voice behind him: "Xueyi?"

Mu Xueyi turned around and saw Zhong Wan unexpectedly.

She smiled in surprise: "Wan Wan?"

Zhong Wan came over and smiled: "It's a coincidence that I can meet you here." But before she laughed for two seconds, she immediately became serious and lowered her voice, "Mu Ruqing is behind the shelf over there, hurry up and leave. ."

When Mu Xueyi heard that Mu Ruqing was there, she didn't want to meet her, so she stepped up to count the money.

Zhong Wan looked at her pitiful coins and said, "Stop taking the mineral water, take the orange juice you like, and I'll pay for you..."

"Yo, I didn't notice it for a while, you started helping others buy orange juice."

Before Zhong Wan finished speaking, Mu Ruqing walked out from behind the shelf with a small smile on her face.

Mu Xueyi clenched the coin in his hand and looked at Mu Ruqing coldly.

Zhong Wan stepped forward and stood in front of Mu Xueyi: "I won't buy it for her, you let her go."

Mu Ruqing laughed even deeper: "Wanwan, seeing what you said, what else can I do to my sister?"

She approached, saw the change in Mu Xueyi's hand, and clicked: "So pitiful, Zhou Zhenyue didn't even give you the money for a bottle of drinks?"

Mu Xueyi frowned: "What does it have to do with you?"

Mu Ruqing picked up the bottle of the cheapest mineral water and took a look around, "The water you have to buy with the last bit of money on your body must be the water you really want to drink."

She put the mineral water back on the counter and looked at Mu Xueyi, "I can help you make up the money."

She took out a one-hundred-dollar bill from her pocket and shook it, then gently released her fingertips, and the bill spun and fell to the ground.

"Take it." Mu Ruqing said with a smile.

Mu Xueyi stared at the note on the ground, her fists clenched until it turned white.

Zhong Wan couldn't help roaring: "Mu Ruqing, is it interesting for you to humiliate her like this?!"

"Interesting," Mu Ruqing savored the anger and hatred in Zhong Wan's eyes, with a smile at the corner of her eyes, "...it's so interesting."

Zhong Wan took Mu Xueyi's arm and walked towards the cashier, her hands trembling with anger, "I'll buy it for you!"

The smile on Mu Ruqing's lips disappeared: "Zhong Wan."

Zhong Wan took a step. This was the only time Mu Ruqing called her by her full name in the past few years.

Mu Ruqing said word by word: "Don't forget, the money in your pocket is also my money. I advise you, it is best not to challenge my bottom line again and again."

Zhong Wan's eyelashes trembled.

Mu Ruqing's face changed, and she started to smile again: "Look at Xueyi, seriously, you should learn from her how to eat soft rice. When you eat my Mu family's meal, people can be undercover obediently. Steal the documents and eat Zhou's family meal, and immediately you can be loyal to Zhou Zhenyue. Look, this is called the one who knows how to eat, tiao, good, dog."

Mu Xueyi's chin kept shaking: "You..."

Mu Ruqing tilted her head: "But in the end, it's someone else's soft meal, and everything depends on others. Just say this mineral water, if you really want to buy it, don't you have to pick up this piece of money I threw away? ?"

Mu Xueyi looked at the hundred-yuan bill on the ground.

It's a very sad thing for her to stand here and be ridiculed.

And the saddest thing is that what Mu Ruqing said was right.

She actually... didn't even have the ability to buy a bottle of water for Ah Yue.

In order not to disturb her sleeping, Zhou Zhenyue could ride a bicycle for more than an hour, sweating all over her body. But she couldn't even collect the money for a bottle of water.

What's the point of her stalemate with Mu Ruqing here?

Even if she refuted and left with a backbone, what could be changed?

Zhou Zhenyue was still on the side of the road.

She still... can't drink water.

From childhood to adulthood, Mu Ruqing has always treated her like this in front of Zhong Wan. In the past twenty years, she has long been accustomed to living in this way. Leaving others behind, that's how it is.

Since it has been like this for more than 20 years, it should be okay to endure it again today, right?

As long as you endure it, you can buy the water back.

She suddenly remembered what she said to Shen Huaixing in the ward before:

"For her, it doesn't matter if your father and sister are enemies, and it doesn't matter if you sign a contract without dignity. You may have to do a lot of things in the future that are not based on principles and bottom lines. It doesn't matter."

Yes, she was already prepared.

Her principles and bottom lines, in this life, in front of Zhou Zhenyue, are all... it doesn't matter.

Mu Xueyi walked slowly to the banknote, her fingers tightly curled, and then weakly released.

She sighed through her nose and slowly bent down.

Fingertips trembling.

Just as he was about to touch the money, a familiar white sneaker suddenly appeared in front of him and stepped on the banknotes impartially.

Mu Xueyi looked up in a trance.

Under the strong light of the white overhead light, Zhou Zhenyue's face was a little blurred by the halo.

Mu Xueyi looked at her blankly.

She suddenly realized what she was doing.

In an instant, even the strands of hair were cold.

Zhou Zhenyue didn't have any special expressions, her eyebrows were still light, there was no anger or blame.

She bent down and gently supported Mu Xueyi's elbow.

Mu Xueyi murmured: "Ayue..."

Zhou Zhenyue said softly, "Get up first."

Mu Ruqing sneered: "Oh, so Mr. Zhou came to the amusement park?"

Zhou Zhenyue glanced at Mu Ruqing, and looked up and down slowly on Mu Ruqing's body.

Immediately, a very shallow smile appeared on her lips:

"I only know that untamed dogs can defecate anywhere. I didn't expect that if humans were not tamed, they would throw things around like animals."

Mu Ruqing's face changed greatly: "Zhou Zhenyue!"

Zhou Zhenyue looked back and said, "It stands to reason that I shouldn't restrict other people's personal freedom in public. Unfortunately, I happen to know the owner of this amusement park. I think, let him help send a few security guards to clear it up. Garbage, he should be happy to help."

Mu Ruqing clenched her fists, "Zhou Zhenyue, what do you mean?!"

Zhou Zhenyue didn't answer, she picked up the mineral water on the counter without looking at it, and dragged Mu Xueyi to the cashier unhurriedly, as if it would be a waste of time to talk to Mu Ruqing any more.

Mu Xueyi followed behind her and wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say, "Ayue..."

Zhou Zhenyue didn't answer the call, just paid for the mineral water and walked out of the convenience store with the water, her back was silent and a little cold.

Mu Xueyi could see that Zhou Zhenyue was angry.

She was so nervous that her palms were sweating, and she didn't know how to apologize. She hesitated for a long time and only spit out three pale words:

"…sorry."

Zhou Zhenyue stood still at the corner of the road.

Her fingers were clenched tightly, and the mineral water bottle in her hand made a faint clicking sound.

After a long time, the clenched hand slowly loosened.

Only from a back view, you can feel the emotions that were leaked out but restrained in her body.

Zhou Zhenyue turned around and looked at the restless Mu Xueyi for a while.

In the end, she still didn't lose any temper, she just sighed and said softly:

"Next time you don't have money to buy water, you must find me."

Mu Xueyi was slightly startled.

Zhou Zhenyue lowered her head, unscrewed the cap of the mineral water, and handed the opened mineral water to Mu Xueyi, her thin voice with a hint of unnoticeable tenderness:

"Drink."

The faint light in Mu Xueyi's eyes flickered.

She didn't give in, she took the mineral water carefully with both hands and raised it to her lips.

When the edge of the bottle touched her lower lip, she could no longer hold back the sourness of the tip of her nose, and tears welled up in her eyes.
