The summer sunlight was burning hot, and Lin Chuxia hid under the dense shade of the trees, watching the comings and goings on the street.
From afar came the jingle of a bicycle bell, which finally stopped with a creak beside Lin Chuxia.
The man wore deep blue jeans and a flamboyant shirt, giving off a rogue aura, but his face bore a clean smile.
"Lin Chuxia, what are you doing here? Looking like a bullied little wife, did that Li guy bully you again, or was it that old lady? I always said your temperament is no good, like dough, isn't it embarrassing?"
Lin Chuxia slightly raised her head. The sunlight was glaringly bright, she wanted to see the man's face clearly, but the intense light was unavoidable, so she could only see a vague face in the halo.
"Gu Peng?"
She tried to speak.
The man grabbed her hand and pulled her up, "Why are you calling me? Here, take this. Next time something happens, call me. Don't hide away to sulk alone, at worst just fight back, I'll help you."
