Lü Shu looked at Xiaoyu with heartache. After all, she was only an 11-year-old girl, yet she had already followed him into the ruins.
However, in this chaotic world, no one would sympathize with the weak.
"I'll make tomatoes and eggs for you every day when we get home." Lü Shu knew that Lü Xiaoyu couldn't hear him, but he still promised.
Lü Xiaoyu's face, which was covered by thick short hair, revealed a smile that Lü Shu couldn't see. She continued to talk in her sleep, "Lü Shu, carry me."
"Hehe." At first, she might have been talking in her sleep, but by this time, Lü Shu had already noticed something. He poked Lü Xiaoyu's little head with his index finger. "Get up by yourself!"
"What's wrong with carrying me? Really." Lü Xiaoyu sat up, and Xiaoxiong Xu also woke up.
"Let's go back to the hotel," Lü Shu said.
Lü Xiaoyu carried Xiaoxiong Xu and jumped out of the window. Lü Shu was responsible for covering up the countless surveillance cameras along the way.
He was not too worried that the people of the Kingdom of Darkness would follow the clues to this place. Even if they did, it would only be Li Dian's fake ID.
The flight was at 19 o 'clock the next night, which meant that after Lü Shu and the others woke up, they still had a day to eat in Xi Jing City. Lü Xiaoyu had been thinking about the Quan' ertou mutton giblets soup in Xi Jing City last time. He could take her there again tomorrow.
This time, he ordered 30 yuan for a bowl. If there wasn't enough meat, he would add more. The purpose of making money was to feed her.
Back at the hotel, Lü Shu supervised Lü Xiaoyu to brush her teeth and wash her face, for fear that she would skip this step because she was too sleepy. Then, he covered Lü Xiaoyu with the quilt.
Lü Xiaoyu's two small hands grabbed the edge of the blanket and asked curiously, "Lü Shu, that website of the Dark Kingdom … Is it really chaotic outside?"
Lü Shu didn't know how to answer this question. "I'm not sure either. It should be. Don't people always say that foreigners live in dire straits …"
"Will we fight often in the future?"
"If no one comes to provoke us, we won't fight."
"But you know how to provoke others …"
"What does a kid know? Hurry up and sleep." Lü Shu didn't want to talk about this topic anymore …
There were a lot of ethnic snacks in Xi Jing, such as naturally fat and tender hand-grabbed lamb, cool and smooth yogurt, sour and spicy fermented skin, chewy yak meat, butter Zanba, sweet fermented rice, and so on. Not only were they economical, but they were also unique.
Lü Xiaoyu drank three bowls of yogurt alone. Lü Shu was afraid that she would suffer from indigestion …
At night, Xi Jing City Airport was brightly lit. From afar, one could see the dazzling white light radiating in all directions. Lü Xiaoyu heard the roar of the engine. She looked up and saw a plane flying low above their heads.
"When can we learn to fly?"
"Very soon." Lü Shu smiled.
It was the first time for both of them to take a plane. Just changing the boarding pass took a long time. When they were going through the security check, Lü Shu waited at the security checkpoint. There was a female ground staff. Lü Xiaoyu saw that the other party was using a device to scan the passengers' bodies. She even wanted to touch the passengers' pockets and whatnot. She pulled Lü Shu to another security checkpoint. Lü Shu was stunned for a long time and couldn't figure out what was going on.
Lü Shu's ticket was next to the window. He switched seats with Lü Xiaoyu. "I don't think we can see anything at night. But after we fly into the stratosphere, we should be able to see the starry sky?"
Lü Xiaoyu leaned on the small round window and looked outside. The look of curiosity on his face made Lü Shu feel that if this guy learned how to fly, he would be able to play in the sky for a few days …
The speed of the plane was very fast. When Lü Shu pulled Lü Xiaoyu out of the airport, he found that there were many people in the arrival hall who were looking forward to their arrival even though it was so late.
These were the people who came to pick up the passengers. They were waiting for the return of foreign travelers, for the reunion of good friends, and for family reunion.
No one came to pick up Lü Shu and Lü Xiaoyu. They were living a happy and carefree life. But when they passed through the expectant eyes of others, Lü Xiaoyu seemed to be a little depressed.
In fact, after all these years, Lü Shu had gradually forgotten the existence of his parents. But he knew that Lü Xiaoyu would still occasionally think of them and ask him why his parents abandoned their child.
Lü Shu did not know how to answer. He could only laugh and tease him. If it wasn't for the welfare home, how would they know each other? Every time, he could use this to change the topic and make Lü Xiaoyu forget the previous question. He succeeded every time.
"When we get back, I'll cook tomato and eggs for you." Lü Shu laughed.
"You must keep your promise!"
"Don't worry!"
The two took a taxi back. When they reached the entrance of the alley, they saw Li Xianyi already standing at the gate with his hands behind his back. Li Xianyi waved at them. "I know you'll be home soon, so Auntie Liu cooked tomato and egg noodle soup for you. The noodles will be ready soon. Come in and wait."
Lü Shu and Lü Xiaoyu looked at each other. Lü Xiaoyu instantly became happy. With Xiaoxiong Xu on his head, he went into the house first. "Auntie Liu, put more eggs in!"
Auntie Liu's happy laughter came from inside the house. "Don't worry, I know you love eggs."
Lü Shu stood outside the fence and looked at the warm, dim light coming from inside the house. This was his first time going out and also his first time returning home from a foreign place. It felt good to have a bowl of hot egg noodle soup on the way home?
As for why the old master knew that they had gotten off the plane … it was too easy for the foundation to find out about this.
Only Li Xianyi and Lü Shu were left outside the house. The old master smiled and said, "Did you get anything from the ruins at the salt lake? I heard you made a great contribution? "
"It's not bad, not bad." Lü Shu said humbly, "I found a type of fruit that helped Chen Baili's Tengra foundation repair. He directly advanced to [A] class, and now he can even fly in the sky …"
"Negative emotion points received from Li Xianyi, + 399!"
Li Xianyi felt a headache coming on. "So you're the one who helped him advance to [A] class …"
Of course, he knew that Chen Baili had advanced to [A] class. The whole world knew about it. This was because when Chen Baili flew in the sky, he did not hide it from anyone. This old master had done it with the intention of shocking everyone. The shocking effect was indeed effective, but everyone was very puzzled. How exactly did this guy advance?
This matter was naturally treated as a secret by Tengra's Earth Net, but Lü Shu felt that there was no need to hide it from Li Xianyi.
"There were three fruits at the time, and one was given to Xiaoxiong Xu …"
Before Lü Shu could finish, Li Xianyi panicked. "How could you give it to Xiaoxiong Xu?!"
"Negative emotion points received from Li Xianyi, + 777!"
When Xiaoxiong Xu heard the voice in the house, he was dumbfounded. Who did he offend?
Lü Shu explained, "I was with Chen Baili at the time. He was injured and about to wake up. I thought that I should not let the goodies flow to others, or else I would have given it all to Chen Baili."
This half-truth could let Li Xianyi know how Chen Baili had advanced, but he could not let him know the real source of the Marrow Cleansing Fruit.
