C19 It's Not That Easy to Shake Me off

Pei Zi's phone on the bed rang several times before she came back to her senses. She picked up the phone and looked at it. It was an unknown number. But after hesitating for a moment, Pei Zi's finger still cut open the screen.

"Hello, Pei Zi?" It was an unfamiliar number, but the voice that came was familiar to Pei Zi. It was the class monitor, Shi Lei.

"Oh, is something the matter?" Pei Zi asked, half-lying on the bed.

"You haven't gone to school for a few days. Yuan Ye said you are sick... Are you better?" Shi Lei sounded worried.

"I'm fine. Thank you. I'll go to class tomorrow." Pei Zi smiled. Shi Lei had taken good care of her during this period of time. Under his lead, some of his classmates started to interact with her. They were no longer as distant and indifferent as before.

"You... Can you come out for a while?" Shi Lei hesitated for a moment but still said it.

"Huh? Go out? Where to?" Pei Zi was stunned. It was already past eight o'clock. Why did he ask her to go out?

... "I, I am at your door. Can you come out for a while?"

"My house?" Pei Zi sat up immediately. She walked to the window and looked at the door. There was a streetlight outside the villa. A figure was leaning against a motorcycle.

... "Wait a moment!" Pei Zi thought that Shi Lei was probably here for something. She hung up the phone and changed into a sportswear. She did not take out her phone and went out of the bedroom.

At this moment, Aunt Wu had already returned to her room and the living room was quiet. Pei Zi took the key from the shoe cabinet and put on her shoes as she walked towards the door.

When she crossed the road, she saw Shi Lei's black leather pants leaning on the handlebars of the motorcycle. There was a helmet hanging on the handlebars. Under the streetlights, the young man who was nearly 1.8 meters tall was very handsome.

"How did you know my family lives here? Is something the matter?" Pei Zi walked over and asked doubtfully.

"I, I asked Yuan Ye. No, it's nothing. I just wanted to ask you, okay? What illness? You haven't gone to school for a few days?" Shi Lei saw that Pei Zi had really come out. He scratched his short hair and felt a little uncomfortable.

..." It's okay. Her cold is a little serious. " Pei Zi did not understand why Shi Lei suddenly came over. He just asked her why she did not go to school.

"Do you have other things to do? You came so late at night."

"Ah? Oh, well..." Shi Lei hesitated and took out a small box from his pocket. "Here. Last time I heard Yuan Ye say you're celebrating your birthday. So, I just bought a gift. Don't dislike it. It's just a token of appreciation."

"This... No, it's not good. We don't know each other very well." Pei Zi did not take it. These few years, she would receive birthday gifts from Shen Pu. Zheng Xu's, Bao Jun's. There were also many uncles and aunties in the army who had sent gifts. However, she had just transferred here and was only familiar with Shi Lei. It was inappropriate for her to accept gifts from him.

"Why not? We are in the same class. I am your class leader. Yuan Ye and I are friends. You are Yuan Ye's cousin. " I'm your brother, too. Can't you just give your sister a little gift for her birthday? Don't be so fussy. Take it, or else... I will think you look down on me. " Shi Lei, who had been feeling a little uneasy just now, said a lot of things and stuffed the small brocade boxes into the pockets of Pei Zi's sportswear.

"You're pretty good at living for nothing! Hahaha! Then, thank you, eh? How are you riding this?" Pei Zi saw Shi Lei's anxious look and smiled but did not refuse. What was there to be pretentious about with a small gift? Just accept it! Then, he looked at the motorcycle behind him and asked curiously.

"We have a motorcycle club. I'll come over later... Do you want to go with me?" Shi Lei turned his body and patted the car. He lifted his leg and got on the bike.

"Ju, Club?" Pei Zi rarely came into contact with the outside world. Shi Lei did not have much contact with the outside world. She was a little curious about Shi Lei's words. Was there a club for motorcycles?

"Do you want to go and take a look? I'll drive you." Shi Lei really wanted to see what it was like for Pei Zi to sit behind him. He looked at her expectantly.

"Can I...? Aren't the club members allowed to go?" Pei Zi instinctively did not want to go home when she thought about the cold and quiet home.

"Of course, there is nothing wrong with that. There is nothing that is not allowed to be a member. I am your membership card! Get in the car!" Shi Lei looked very excited. He waved his head at Pei Zi and motioned for her to sit on the car.

... "" Pei Zi looked at him and hesitated for a few seconds before she lifted her legs and sat in the back seat.

"Hug my waist or I'll throw you out later!" Shi Lei kicked the car's support and hit the gas a few times before he turned around and put the helmet on Pei Zi's head.

"It's not that easy to throw me out, is it?" Pei Zi had never been on a motorcycle before. She was a little nervous when she heard Shi Lei's stubborn reply, but in the next second, she hugged Shi Lei's waist.

... "Sit tight! Let's go!" Shi Lei reminded him. He felt his waist being held tightly by a pair of soft little hands. His liver jumped a few times and he started the motorcycle steadily with one foot and two legs.

Shen Pu drove the car. Along the way, his mind was filled with Aunt Wu's words. That girl had been depressed for a few days and had lost a lot of weight. Today, when she came home from the hospital, she hid in the house and did not eat anything. Did she understand? Obviously, she was even more stubborn.

Actually, thinking about it, he could also understand Pei Zi's feelings. Ever since he brought her back, I became the girl's only family. He suddenly told her that he would bring another stranger back to live with her, even if it was not now. The little girl wouldn't get used to it immediately. Just like how all children did not want their parents to have babies, they were afraid that their love would be snatched away by others!

No matter how he felt about Pei Zi in his heart, he could not keep the little girl by his side. He was not afraid of the resistance outside the house. As long as he wanted to, he could not stop it. But he could not let her give herself to someone just because she was indebted to them! Pei Zi was still young and had her own life. He, Shen Pu, would rather personally send her to the other side of happiness than see her regret and leave after getting her...

When they were about to reach the villa area, a black motorcycle passed by quickly. Such a dark road situation actually drove so fast, it was really seeking death! After cursing in his heart, Shen Pu drove slowly into the villa area.

"Sir, you are back!" Aunt Wu heard the door open and closed. Aunt Wu walked out and saw that it was Shen Pu who greeted her politely.

"Where is Zi?" Shen Pu took off his shoes and asked as he took off his military uniform.

"Miss hasn't come downstairs yet. You came back just in time. I advise her to eat more. She has just been discharged from the hospital."

"I've troubled you. It's alright. I'll go and take a look. You can rest." Shen Pu nodded and turned around to go upstairs.

Aunt Wu shook her head. How could she persuade the young lady with such coldness? Anyone who saw the light would be scared.

Shen Pu first went back to his bedroom to take a bath. He changed into his house clothes. He looked at his phone and saw that there was no important call. He then got up and walked towards Pei Zi's bedroom.

After lightly knocking a few times, it was quiet inside. Shen Pu gently pushed the door open. There was no lock on the door and it immediately opened. There was no one in the bright bedroom. He walked in. The bathroom door was open. There was no sign of the little girl. Shen Pu scanned the room with his sharp eyes. His phone was there, his backpack was there, and the blanket on the bed was ready. Where would this girl go?
