Chapter 84 Moving

Chapter 84 Moving
When Xiaobu saw Lu Yao, he rubbed against his legs.

Rubbing and whimpering.

It seems very urgent.

Seeing this, Lu Yao picked it up in the elevator.

Xiaobu wagged his tail wildly and rubbed against him in his arms.

Hu Li seemed to be in a good mood, just watching with a smile.

As he watched, his eyes fell on Lu Yao's face and he suddenly asked:

"Did you stay up late last night?"

"Hmm... not bad."

"There are still bloodshot eyes. Are you sleepy?"

"not sleepy."

"Nonsense~"

The Queen of the Sea said something coquettish, but she did not ask him where he went to play last night. Instead, she said:

"When you go out with Xiaochen in the future, remember to be more restrained. Staying up late is very harmful to your health, you know? Especially in terms of cardiovascular health. You need a healthy body to enjoy life better."

Lu Yao also became familiar with her.

After hearing this, he smiled and said:

"Wouldn't drinking be more harmful to your health?"

"Hehe, I can not drink, but can you promise me that I won't go out to play?"

"I can."

"Stop it. You're just like a little kid~"

She began to make a coquettish sound again:

"Anyway, take care of your body, okay?"

"Yeah. I know."

"Hee hee~"

The Queen of the Sea smiled happily.

The elevator opens.

The two of them walked out.

In fact, Lu Yao rarely visited the Fortune Garden.

His route was to enter from the basement and take the elevator directly up. He only took a peek at things like the community's green areas through the window.

Xu Ruochu doesn’t have the habit of taking walks; she is a very goal-oriented person.

Work is work, and when she wants to relax, she either goes to the beauty salon or the gym.

But Hu Li is different.

In Lu Yao's eyes, she is actually more like an ordinary person.

If you can ignore the tip of the iceberg that this sister always reveals inadvertently.

When they arrived at the grass in the community, Xiaobu started to have fun.

Hu Li started to warm up as he walked along the winding sidewalk.

"Want to run?"

"No, you stayed up late, why run?... I've already told you to pay attention to your cardiovascular health."

"That……"

Seeing Lu Yao staring at her, she bent down... something Lu Yao might never be able to do in his life, and said:
"Stretch it out and move around."

"..."

Unconsciously, Lu Yao glanced at her loose sweatpants.

To be honest, in all the time they had known each other, he had never seen Hu Li wear any tight or revealing clothes.

For some reason, I remembered what Mr. Xu said, "Sister Li is a very traditional person."

Can……

Even if it wasn't revealing, he could guess from the casual exposure of these clothes...under these loose clothes, there was a very, very good figure.

"..."

He averted his gaze.

It seemed that the throbbing that Ella brought to him last night still existed.

But fortunately, Xiaobu is carefree.

At this time, it is better to look at the dog than the person.

"Let's go."

"Uh...oh, okay."

Lu Yao hurriedly followed.

Anyway, this sister twists her waist every three steps and stretches her legs every five steps...

The posture is unnaturally stretched.

At this time, a burst of singing rang out.

"South of the colorful clouds..."

Lu Yao heard the singing and looked in the direction where he saw about a dozen old ladies doing dance exercises in the morning.

"what?"

Hu Li's eyes lit up:
"Walk."

Having said that, he strode towards that direction.

Lu Yao whistled, and Xiaobu, who was having fun on the grass, heard the noise and followed him directly.

The two of them walked around a small flower bed and Hu Li stopped.

It's still about ten or twenty meters away from the small square.

She suddenly made a...very graceful dance move and started dancing to the song.

Unlike those old ladies who have stiff limbs, an expert can tell whether something is right or not with just one move.

That kind of beauty... comes right to you.

Especially in this bright morning light.

Her body seemed to be covered with a layer of colorful light.

After the Guozhuang dance, she once again showed off her graceful dancing moves.

But it is different from the charm of Guozhuang.

The more people there are, the better it looks.

But this time, she danced solo.

Like a beautiful peacock, she takes graceful and light steps and uses body language to fully display her beauty.

"South of the colorful clouds..."

The music never stops, and neither does she.

It seems that there are only her and music in this huge world.

And...a man and a dog, two stunned spectators.

From body language, to facial expressions, to that indescribable temperament...

Just keep dancing and dancing.

The dance ends and the music ends.

Feeling relieved, she turned her head and saw Lu Yao's stunned look.

Then, the Peacock Queen smiled charmingly:
"Hehe, does it look good?"

Lu Yao nodded subconsciously.

With a bit of regret, I expressed my sincere feelings:
"So lovely……"

Hu Li's smile became even brighter.

Because she heard the sincerity in these words.

but……

Not satisfied.

Instead, he tilted his head and continued to ask:
"How beautiful is it?"

"Well……"

After Lu Yao thought for a while, he said:

"Just... I don't know if my description is appropriate, but the moment you danced, I suddenly understood... why the emperors in ancient times did not hold court early in the morning."

"…What kind of description is this?"

Hu Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"You make me sound like Daji."

"That's not what I meant. When we watch TV, don't we always see a group of palace maids dancing when the emperors are having fun? At that time, I didn't think the dances were so beautiful... but now I can feel it."

"That is to say, if I give you a glass of wine right now, can you keep drinking it while watching me dance?"

"Uh-huh!"

"You are beautiful!"

Her charm turned into anger and drifted away in the morning breeze.

"Then I will be exhausted to death?"

"Come here, give me the white silk!"

"Hehehe, thank you for your grace~ Oh, that's not right, why is it Bai Ling?"

"Haha~"

"Okay, you have such a vicious heart of an emperor! I will strangle you to death!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Wang~"

Seeing the two people running away for no apparent reason, Xiaobu quickly chased after them.

……

The sweat in the morning completely awakened Lu Yao's body.

After the two of them returned to Xu Ruochu's home chatting and laughing, Hu Li went to take a shower.

Then, Xu Ruochu woke up.

"Chujie, so early?"

Lu Yao was a little surprised.

Xu Ruochu nodded sleepily:
"Morning. What do you want for breakfast?"

"My mother cooked vegetable porridge."

"Hmm...ha~~~mm."

The female president sat on the dining chair and yawned lazily.

Hu Li also walked out of the room with her hair wrapped.

After she lazily greeted him, she continued to ask Lu Yao:
"Where did you go last night?"

"Going to sing."

"Oh. Who are they?"

"Just a few of his classmates."

"Oh."

She didn't ask much.

Lu Yao felt at ease.

……

It turns out that Hai Hou is a bad teammate.

Not only was he lazy, but he also dragged the female president into this.

The excuse is: I haven’t had any rest since I came back from the self-driving tour, so today I strongly request to lie down at home for a day.

Therefore, the female president, who couldn't persuade her any more, had to compromise.

But Lu Yao didn't have it easy either.

After breakfast, everyone went to Haihou’s home together.

I have to admit that as long as the money is in place, the glass will be broken.

Haihou’s home has been renovated.

The floor tiles, painted walls, and even the cabinets were all taken care of.

The only thing left to do with this home now is to buy furniture.

Lu Yao was barefoot, walking on the wooden floor which was supposed to be the master bedroom but turned out to be a dance studio. He couldn't help but look towards the window.

He thought to himself…if I were her neighbor across the street, I would definitely use a telescope to watch at a fixed time every day.

After all, that half of the song "South of the Colorful Clouds"... is really amazing.

At this time, the Queen of the Sea outside called him:

"Lu Yao, shall we move?"

"……what?"

Lu Yao was stunned, glanced at Xu Ruochu who looked helpless, and subconsciously asked:

"Didn't you say take a break?"

“Rest does not interfere with work, and work does not interfere with laziness! This is life.”

The female CEO rolled her eyes even wider. So, he nodded:
"Then I'll find a moving company?"

"Well, don't you know my home address?"

"know."

Lu Yao nodded and took out his cell phone.

……

Moving is a very troublesome thing. Even before Haihou arrived at the old community, the moving company people couldn't even enter the community.

But all this came naturally with her arrival.

Her face is the access card.

After the security officer said something, the moving company's car drove in along with the X6.

A trace of sadness also appeared on Xu Ruochu's face.

It’s true... I haven’t been here for many years.

She couldn't help but look at Hu Li.

Unfortunately, the sea behind me, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was very calm.

Get out of the car calmly and open the door calmly.

The moving company looked at the old furniture inside with surprise.

They usually travel through various residential areas in Shanghai, and the location where the owner moves, whether the residential area is expensive or cheap, are actually one of the bases for them to judge the customer's situation.

Fortune Seaview Garden is not cheap.

And this community is the legendary... cadre community.

They originally thought they would move in a lot of expensive furniture, but after entering the house they found out... everything was very old.

The old ones are like...not from this era.

At this time, Lu Yao spoke:

"Master Zhang, these pieces of furniture are a bit old, and the structure may be loose. You name the price, and I won't bargain with you, but I just have one request, let's do a good job. Every piece of furniture here is... very important to me. We must be very careful, okay?"

The moving foreman nodded.

The look in his eyes when he looked at Lu Yao was almost "respectful":

"I see. Don't worry, we will be careful... Shall we move everything?"

"Yeah. Be careful."

"Don't worry, Boss Lu, we know."

As he spoke, he took a few decoration workers to start evaluating which ones should be moved first and how the car should be laid out.

Xu Ruochu turned his head and looked at Hu Li, thought for a moment, and asked:

"Do we need to clean it up ourselves and take it over there?"

"Well... just look around."

Compared to last time, Hu Li's mood seems to be much more stable.

He just stared at the workers who started to move the sofa, and saw how cautious they were, with a hint of relief in his eyes.

Idea, woman's way of saying:
"Lu Yao is watching here, let's go check and see if there is anything else."

"Ah."

Xu Ruochu accompanied her to the bedroom.

Her cubicle was emptied.

After Xu Ruochu walked in, he couldn't help but sigh.

“…What are you sighing about?”

"It reminds me of my childhood."

The female president placed her hand on the study table.

This study desk is the old school style, with a wooden structure and stickers of beautiful girls on it.

It's faded beyond recognition.

"Sister, do you still remember this sticker?"

“…Ha, we posted it together.”

"Ah."

"At that time, every time you came to my house to play, your family would send you off. Then every time I saw Uncle Xu, he would complain to me: Your home is too far away. Is it okay for my daughter to run to your place every day? Little fox, can uncle find a new home for you... At first I was wondering what new home I should find, but he asked my dad..."

When she said this, the smile on her face froze.

It becomes a bit far-fetched:

"I asked him to adopt me into your family. I remember when my father agreed, I cried so hard..."

"Ha~"

Xu Ruochu couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face:
"A bad joke from an adult."

"Of course not. I really thought that my parents didn't want me anymore."

"I was quite happy at the time, thinking that we could be together every day."

"Of course you're happy. I was terrified. I hugged my dad's legs and cried loudly, which scared my dad too..."

"what……"

For some reason, the more they talked and laughed, the quieter their voices became.

Those traces of childhood memories spread, as if to reveal the scars that were already becoming more obvious.

But this time... Hu Li took the initiative to stop it.

"...Oh, by the way, what did you say about your clothes yesterday?"

"Well... Lu Yao has an aunt who is a bit of a germaphobe. I gave all my clothes to her to wash. She washed them very clean."

"A person with mysophobia opening a dry cleaning shop... is very lucky."

As she spoke, she sat up from the bed:

"Let's go and see if there are any clothes in my parents' room that need to be taken care of."

"it is good."

……

Although Hu Li's house is big, there are not many pieces of furniture.

In addition, there were more movers this time, six in total, so the place was quickly emptied.

When they moved to the room where only a TV cabinet was left, Lu Yao walked towards the inner room and saw that Hu Li was not in the small bedroom, but the door of the large bedroom was open, so he walked to the door.

After knocking on the door, she saw Xu Ruochu and her sitting by the bed, folding clothes.

"Sister Li, the living room is almost done, it's time to move these things... do you still need a bed?"

"Yes, my bed is fine. The mattress may need to be replaced, but we'll talk about it when the time comes."

Hu Li nodded and said:

"These are my mother's old clothes. See if you can dry clean them and take care of them."

"it is good."

He walked in.

Subconsciously observing the furnishings in the room.

To be honest, it's just a very ordinary bedroom.

But he saw traces of a large photo frame on the wall at the head of the bed.

The frame is gone, but the outline around it remains.

He said nothing, walked to the bed covered with a white dust cover, and looked at the clothes...

To be honest, they are actually very old styles.

But... when he pulled open the lining of a piece of clothing, he saw a logo: Pierre Cardin
Pierre Cardin.

"...I'll take them back and have Aunt Li check them all...Do they need to be dry cleaned?"

"Well, let's dry clean them all and then take care of them. I noticed that there are a lot of clothes in Xiaochu's room that are covered with dust bags, right?"

"Okay, I'll put them all on."

"Then……"

Hu Li thought about it, suddenly walked to the closet, and came out with a suit bag.

"This suit... belongs to my dad. He wore it when my dad and mom got married..."

Her voice gradually became deeper:

"When my father passed away, all his clothes were burned. But my mother insisted on keeping this set... but she didn't dare to take it with her when she went abroad. Maybe she was afraid that she would miss him when she saw it."

Her smile gradually turned pale.

Xu Ruochu has already pursed his lips.

But this time, she didn't cry. She just looked at Lu Yao with slightly red eyes and handed him the suit bag.

Lu Yao nodded:
"I'll ask Aunt Li to be very careful."

"……Um."

She rubbed her eyes and forced a smile:

"Okay, that's all. Let the masters move quickly."

……

She finished moving her house in one morning.

All that was left was an empty house.

All of Hu Li's emotions seemed to burst out at this moment.

At this moment... there is no one at her house.

Lu Yao and Xu Ruochu had just left with the clothes.

As the owner's representative, Lu Yao had to go to Fortune Garden to handle the moving procedures.

Been gone for a long time.

She watched helplessly as her home was completely emptied, even though all the furniture had been moved to a new home... But for her, the moment even the furniture was moved away, the concept of "home" had already collapsed in this empty room.

There is no need to come back from now on.

Also... I can never go back.

Thinking of this, she broke down.

It let out a suppressed cry like a kitten.

He squatted on the ground and buried his face in his arms.

It’s like the countless times I cried secretly as a child.

Trying hard not to make any sound.

Trying hard to act strong in front of my mother.

Try your best not to let anyone know your sadness and sorrow.

She cried bitterly.

But he also tried hard not to make any sound.

But no one knows what this now empty house means to her.

The laughter that vaguely rang in her ears, and the sweet duet dance of the two people... to the ignorant girl, it just seemed beautiful.

But this beauty only reveals its most hideous and cruel appearance when only one person is left dancing the duet.

Like a knife.

Over the past decade, every time I think of it, it's still sharp.

It hurts.

It really hurts.

But he dared not speak out.

In the past, I was afraid that my mother would be sad.

And now...it has become instinct.

The more it hurts, the sadder it is.

The sadder you are, the more painful it is.

To the point that now I can't tell whether this pain is an unforgettable memory, or the pleasure and warmth that is hard to give up in the fleeting time.

But at this moment...

She heard a soft sound of footsteps beside her ears.

Subconsciously raised his head.

I saw a pair of concerned eyes.

And...a warm hug.

Lu Yao hugged her gently.

In her astonishment, his gentle words rang in her ears:
"Sister Xiaoli, don't cry."

"good."

"Do not cry."

"..."

So Hu Li stopped crying.

She just lay in his arms and closed her eyes.
