After listening to the system's clock-in requirements, and then looking down at Meiyou holding her hand tightly, Meiberry fell silent.
[System, do you think it’s possible for me to sneak away like this? 】
[Host, if you can ask your parents for help. 】
Mayberry:......
Isn't this nonsense?
If her parents could help, she wouldn't be shopping with Meiyou now!
"What's wrong?"
The last second they met, Meiberry was still talking about what street snacks she was going to eat later, but in the next moment, she saw that Meiberry's whole body became depressed.
"Ah, I, my stomach hurts."
Meiberry clutched her stomach, which was probably the only reason she could use.
Hearing that Mei Bei had a stomachache, Mei You subconsciously looked down at Mei Bei's stomach, which was slightly bulging from the snack she had just eaten.
She said silently: "Would you like to drink a bowl of hawthorn water at the candy shop you mentioned earlier?"
Mayberry: "..."
"I think it may not be the snack that's the problem." Mayberry simply broke the jar and said, "I'll go find my parents first and go to the hut over the tavern to sort it out."
Mei You heard that Mei Bei had a bad stomach, so she didn't stop her and just said, "I'll go back with you."
It just so happened that she didn't have the heart to go shopping and join in the fun. The night market didn't end today with delicious food.
When she found out that Mei You actually wanted to go back with her, Mei Bei felt numb. The reluctance on her face caught Mei You's attention at that moment.
"You don't want me to follow?"
"Ah, no, no, it's just..." Mei Berry knows that Mei You is sharp, but she can't be so sharp!
Meiberry anxiously pointed to a stall not far away with a lot of people, and said, "I, I haven't eaten that mutton biscuit yet! Is it any different from the previous sesame biscuits?"
"did you mean--"
"Sister, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy it after I go to the hut. Can you help me line up?"
The expression on Meiyou's face became even more complicated when she heard that Meiberry still wanted to eat it.
Did she think wrong?
Mei Qiang didn't have a bad stomach and wanted to go to the latrine, but she was full and wanted to clear her stomach?
Otherwise, why are you still thinking about eating?
"Please, sister! In addition to pancakes, there are also grilled mutton skewers over there, hey, hey, and that kind of soup...please!"
Mayberry then pretended to be very anxious, and after a quick explanation, she turned around and ran away.
That hurried look made it look like something was really at the door...
Mei Mei ran more than ten meters in the crowd before she dared to look back. At this moment, Mei You was no longer where they were standing.
"Boss, change it."
Meiberry went to the stall where she bought the mask before, replaced the evil ghost mask and put it on her face, then walked around to the dark place behind the roadside vendor and approached the food stalls she had told Meiyou before.
As expected, Meiyou stood in line at the line to buy biscuits.
[System, where is the male protagonist? When will it appear? 】
Meiberry looked at the people queuing over there, but she didn't notice where the male protagonist was for a while.
[Don’t worry, since the male and female protagonists appear in the same place at the same time, they will definitely meet. 】
The system comforted Meiberry and her heart calmed down.
It's just that she was wearing such a devilish mask and standing in the shadows behind other people's stalls. From time to time, she was exposed by the firelight on the street, which directly caused the business of the nearby stalls to slump a lot.
When she came to her senses, the owners of the three stalls around her turned back and stared at her with bitter hatred.
Upon seeing this, Meiberry immediately understood what was going on, and quickly took a few steps back into the darkness, and then walked towards other stalls with more people.
There weren't many people, so who would stop her?
What if Meiyou finds out?
Mei Berry couldn't believe it when she thought that she failed to clock in, got lost inexplicably, and then got caught in the rain and had a fever.
She looked up at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, and there did seem to be a little more clouds around her.
"No, no, please stay hidden."
Mei Berry was afraid that Mei You would still discover her like this.
While moving towards Meiyu, she moved towards the darkness behind her.
Suddenly, a pale hand stretched out from the alley behind Meiberry and grabbed Meiberry's shoulder. At that moment, Meiberry turned her head alertly and suddenly screamed: "Oh my god!"
In a daze, she seemed to hear Mei Berry's cry, but Mei You turned her head and saw nothing in the crowd.
"strangeness……"
Mei You muttered something in a low voice and turned her head again. She looked at the three people in front of her and it was her turn.
So I just concentrated on waiting for the Hu Biscuits, and I heard the people in line saying: "I heard that this boss will close the stall after finishing today~"
"It is said that my mother in my hometown is not in good health, so she has to return to her hometown to serve..."
Mei Youduo listened and couldn't help but feel happy in her heart.
Fortunately, she helped Mei Qiu queue up to buy the cakes. Otherwise, wouldn't this little girl be very sad when she turned around and found that the cakes were gone?
The business at the Hu Cake stall was extremely hot tonight because the boss was about to stop doing the Hu Cake business.
The three people in front of Mei You each bought more than one piece.
At this time, the boss had used up all the materials. When Mei You heard what the person in front said about the quantity to buy, her heart moved, and she only had two pieces left.
But who would have expected that after the customers in front of Mei You were taken away, a tall guy suddenly rushed over from the side, slapped the copper plate directly on the stall, and said: "Boss, I want the rest! "
"Wait!"
Mei You stared at the muscular man in front of her, her tone cold and slow: "You jumped in line, now it's my turn to buy."
Seeing that the person in front of him was not tall, was wearing a mask, and was a young woman, the man sneered contemptuously.
Obviously he doesn't take Mei You seriously at all.
He turned his head and only urged his boss to hurry up, without looking at Mei You again.
The owner of the biscuit stall was obviously in a dilemma.
Just like the young lady in front of him said, his guest at the moment should be the other party.
But the man in front of him has a strong aura, and he is not someone to be trifled with at first glance.
"I want these two."
Seeing that the man ignored her, Mei You took out the money and placed it in front of the boss, which instantly made the boss look like he wanted to cry.
"This this……"
"You little lady, do you know who I am?"
The strong man glared at Mei You fiercely, trying to scare him away with his face.
But the other party was not frightened at all and did not say anything. He even looked at him as if it was a waste of time, just urging the boss to give him the packaged biscuits.
"Hey! You little lady..."
The strong man was angered by Mei You's behavior and reached out to push Mei You away. Mei You had already caught a glimpse of the man's behavior out of the corner of his eye.
Mei You, who was clenching a fist with one hand, was about to hit the opponent's front door, but unexpectedly, a hand suddenly appeared behind her and blocked the opponent's incoming fist.
"Let me ask you, are you a grown man who is ashamed to bully a young lady? You did such a shameless thing for the sake of Hu Cake, huh?"
Mei You was startled by this voice: "Gu Pinglu?"
Suddenly his name was called out by the girl in front of him. Gu Pinglu's expression changed and his other hand had already grabbed the other person's arm.
How was he exposed? !
"Ouch!"
Suddenly, the man who had just been grabbed by Gu Pinglu was knocked to the ground by an uppercut from the girl wearing a fox mask in front of him.
The girl didn't hesitate, picked up the freshly packed biscuits from the boss's hand, grabbed Gu Pinglu with her backhand, and led them towards the shadows on the opposite side of the street.
She didn't expect to meet Gu Pinglu here. Obviously, he didn't expect it either. He even grabbed her arm nervously because he had revealed his identity?
Why don't you take people away quickly?
"you……"
"Shut up!"
Mei You walked towards a dark alley on the street. Gu Pinglu was struggling behind, but he found that the girl was so strong that he couldn't resist at all.
So he soon discovered that the only number that matched his memory was——
"Meiyu?"
Seeing that the other party had recognized her, Mei You stopped.
"Um."
She directly admitted who she was. In the darkness, Mei You didn't see the joy flashing in Gu Pinglu's eyes. She only asked with concern: "You won't get into trouble again by showing up here this time, right?"
Gu Pinglu:? ? ? ?
Is this the image he has in the other person's mind?
Gu Pinglu: In your mind, I am just a troublemaker?
Meiyou: Isn’t it?
Gu Pinglu:......
