....
At the sa ti, Lih Xiao suddenly noticed that the dark shadow behind her had disappeared into the night, while the brightly lit entrance of the residential complex was ahead, and Lih ng had already hurried over with two security guards.
"Sis, sis, are you okay?"
Lih ng ran over, anxiously grabbing Lih Xiao's hands and looking around: "Are you alright? Where is that person?"
Lih Xiao, who had been extrely tense just monts before, suddenly relaxed, feeling as if her strength had been drained, and she gently shook her head: "He probably left when he saw you guys coming."
"Miss Lih, do you need us to call the police?" asked the security guard.
"Calling the police won't help, he didn't do anything. Besides, I have no evidence that he was following , for all I know, he might live around here."
"Alright. But this road is less travelled, and there are no shops around, it's better if you take the main road next ti." the security kindly advised.
In such situations, the security guards must respect the resident's wishes, all they can do is remind the residents and inform everyone in the resident group chat about the incident so that they avoid this road at night.
Lih ng took Lih Xiao's hand: "Let's go ho, sis."
Lih Xiao nodded slightly, letting Lih ng lead her away. While in the elevator, Lih ng expressed her concern: "Sis, I was really worried just now, I'm glad you're okay."
"Maybe I was too nervous. I'm sorry, ngng."
"Hmm... Should we tell mom and dad about this?" Lih ng asked.
Lih Xiao shook her head: "Let's not tell them, it would just worry them, and they might even persuade us to move back ho and possibly co to Star City to check on us."
Lih ng nodded. The two sisters had been in Star City for several years and had developed a habit of sharing only good news and not bad news.
"Sis, you should start driving to and from work."
Lih ng felt that if her sister had driven today, this would not have happened.
Lih Xiao shook her head: "No, I decided to cut all ties with him. I've already found a new place, and we're moving out next week."
Lih ng responded with a reluctant smile, though the apartnt was bought by Shen Yuan for her sister, she had given many suggestions about the furnishings, and had also put a lot of effort into decorating her own bedroom.
She truly didn't want to move out.
Stupid big pig's trotter, my sister is moving out, when will you finally win her back?
If my sister really cuts off all ties with Shen Yuan, how will I ever et you again?
Stupid big pig's trotter, you have no initiative at all!
....
When the sisters reached ho, Shen Yuan had just finished paying and was leisurely entering the residential complex, humming a tune.
It is well known, the mont when a woman feels most insecure is the best ti to make a move.
And now, the mont had arrived.
Arriving at building 6, he followed an older lady into the elevator. Seeing the lady press the button for the 9th floor, Shen Yuan made no move.
The lady's hand still hovered in front of the panel, she looked back and asked: "Young man, which floor do you need?"
"15th floor," Shen Yuan said.
"Do you need to press it for you?" the lady asked.
"No need."
"?"
The lady thought it odd that he said he was going to the 15th floor but didn't press the elevator button. This young man also looked unfamiliar, as if she had never seen him in the complex before.
With many young people behaving oddly these days, the lady didn't ask further. Once the elevator reached the 9th floor, she took a step out only to find the young man following behind.
She felt a sudden chill, thinking could this young man be targeting her?
Just then, the property manager had reminded in the residential group chat, warning them to avoid the west gate road where a "stalking pervert" had been suspected.
Could it be this young man?
The lady thought although she was nearly 50, she was still considered quite attractive in her community square dance group, and it wasn't an exaggeration to say she carried a lingering charm.
With young people's tastes becoming ever more peculiar, who knows if he might prefer matured won like her?
As she reached her front door, the lady couldn't help but turn back and say: "Young man, I know you young people lack patience nowadays, but you shouldn't take the wrong path. I'd willingly give you my WeChat if you ask openly, so why follow ?"
Shen Yuan: "?"
The auntie sized up Shen Yuan and noticed his decent physique and handso face, then continued, "Let's add each other on WeChat. But rember, don't do such things again."
"You have a ntal problem, auntie!"
Shen Yuan left these words and headed straight up the stairs, thinking today must be bad luck. The aunty is almost 50, and she thought I was interested in her?
What kind of people are these?!
The auntie was initially stunned, then she covered her mouth and chuckled, "The young man is shy after all, why so thin-skinned."
....
"Thud thud thud."
The door was knocked. Lih ng walked over to open it and saw a breathless Shen Yuan at the door, hands on his hips saying, "You got here pretty quickly, huh? Just a few minutes?"
"Where's your sister? Is she alright? Was that person caught?"
Shen Yuan rapidly asked three questions, gasping for air as he pushed past Lih ng and walked inside.
"ngng, who's there?"
At that mont, Lih Xiao, who was preparing to take a shower, also ca out of her room and ca face to face with a sowhat disheveled Shen Yuan, even so sweat beading on his forehead.
Shen Yuan sighed with enormous relief, "Teacher Lih, seeing that you are okay is such a relief."
"You, why are you here?"
Lih Xiao initially didn't want to say a word to Shen Yuan, but seeing his disheveled state and that he had run all this way for her, she softened instantly.
"Lih ng notified first thing, I was nearby, so I just ran over."
Shen Yuan took out two tissues to wipe the sweat from his forehead, continuously muttering, "It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine."
"Did you run here?" Lih ng asked doubtfully.
"It's just 2 kiloters, but driving here would take at least 20 minutes, so I simply ran."
Shen Yuan looked earnestly at Lih Xiao, "Teacher Lih, rest assured, my cousin happens to be the captain of the public security team in this district. I'll ask him to thoroughly investigate that road. Of course, I can't guarantee that we'll find that person."
Lih Xiao shook her head, "No need to go through the trouble."
"It's necessary."
After saying this, Shen Yuan sat down on the sofa, continuing to wipe sweat with a tissue, and fanned himself pretending to feel very hot.
"..."
Lih Xiao didn't know what to say anymore, she pulled Lih ng aside and spoke softly, "Can you ask if he's eaten?"
"Sister, are you going soft?"
Lih Xiao scratched her head, "I'm not going soft... Oh, I don't know how to explain, just help ask him."
"What if he says he hasn't eaten?" Lih ng asked.
"Then order him so takeout... no, I'll just cook him a couple of dishes."
Lih Xiao thought for a mont, "There's at, chicken, tomatoes, and eggs in the fridge."
"Alright, I'll go ask him, you wait in your room for the news."
Lih ng walked to the sofa, saw Shen Yuan still "fanning" himself, and kicked his foot, "Old actor, eaten or not?"
"What old actor? What do you an? You ntion eating, how could I be in the mood to eat after hearing about such things?"
Shen Yuan flatly denied all three questions.
Lih ng couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Alright, my sister went back to her room, stop acting in front of already. With such good acting skills, why aren't you in movies?"
Shen Yuan looked back and indeed, Teacher Lih was no longer in the hallway. He then pulled Lih ng into his arms, "So, Lih ng, you no longer respect ? Not calling brother-in-law now?"
Lih ng pounded on Shen Yuan's chest a couple of tis, "Pfft, what brother-in-law! My sister doesn't acknowledge you as her boyfriend now, you stopped driving your car, even said you'd move out of the house."
"You see, sister is just being needlessly hard on herself. She doesn't drive the Porsche I bought for her, prefers taking the bus instead."
Lih ng snorted, "Now you realize, a mont of infidelity gives a lifeti of cremation at the wife-seeking funeral."
Shen Yuan twisted his mouth, thinking that wasn't infidelity, it was just diversifying, moving forward on all tracks.
At that mont, Lih ng suddenly felt sothing amiss, "Hey, hey, hey, don't touch around, my sister might co out any mont."
