Desk mate, your persona has crumbled.

The upbeat background music of "Two People Walking Together" echoed in the living room.

Xu Mo and Song Shuyan sat side by side on the soft sofa cushions.

Who is it?

Xu Mo asked the question instinctively.

Song Shuyan looked at Xu Mo.

"elder brother."

The boy felt his cheeks suddenly become hot.

I'm hooked.

Starting with zero frames, who can withstand that!

Song Shuyan's "brother" had such a strong aftereffect that he couldn't recover for a while.

However, looking into Song Shuyan's clear eyes, Xu Mo suddenly realized something.

Song Shuyan seems to have an older brother.

Oh--

They weren't calling me just now!

A strange sense of loss welled up in my heart.

Thinking of this, Xu Mo's face grew even hotter.

Xu Mo, you're going too far!

The person who started the incident, Song Shuyan, was simply puzzled.

She tilted her head slightly, a hint of confusion appearing in her eyes.

"What's wrong?"

The boy was pulled back to reality by the question, and hurriedly scratched the back of his head: "N-nothing! Let's continue playing the game!"

With that, Xu Mo picked up the handle, signaling Song Shuyan to get ready to begin.

Song Shuyan's attention was quickly diverted to the game.

The background music flowed lightly, and the two were once again immersed in the game world where light and shadow intertwined.

Xu Mo secretly glanced at Song Shuyan, and only after seeing the girl's focused profile did he slowly breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, she didn't realize it.

If Song Shuyan knew what she was just thinking...

That's really too crazy.

You absolutely cannot say that.

Time flies when you're playing a game.

When the clock on the wall struck five, Xu Mo and Song Shuyan tacitly stopped playing.

It's almost time; Song Shuyan should go home.

"It's time to go back."

She spoke softly, her voice carrying a sense of relaxation after playing the game.

Xu Mo put away the controller and got up as he always did every Friday:

"I send you."

"Um!"

Fu Gui'er watched as the two of them got up.

It was obvious at a glance that he wasn't taking her out for fun.

That stinky human never takes this person out with them!

Just as he thought of this, Fugui'er was hit on the head.

"Were you just insulting me?"

The silly dog ​​perked up.

Slander! He's slandering me!

"Woof!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the silly dog ​​got hit on the head again.

They behaved themselves now.

Xu Mo rubbed the dog's head: "I'll take you out tonight. Be a good boy and stay home now."

After saying that, Xu Mo and Song Shuyan went out together.

I'll come to Xu Mo's house to play games on Friday, and then go home.

For Song Shuyan and Xu Mo, this matter was no different from going to school together as usual.

Stepping out of the building, a wave of heat washes over you.

Although it's already the end of September, the temperature hasn't dropped very significantly.

It's still very hot outside.

As the two walked along the road, Xu Mo suddenly remembered his mother's earlier question and asked the girl beside him.

"Song Shuyan, what are your plans for the National Day holiday?"

As Song Shuyan shook her head, her ponytail swayed gently.

"No, I stay home during my vacation."

The answer was exactly what Xu Mo expected.

Before meeting me, Song Shuyan was basically a homebody.

It's practically impossible to get her to go out and have fun.

"It's good. There are so many people outside during the National Day holiday, it's the right thing to not go out. You can't see any scenery outside, it's just a sea of ​​heads."

Song Shuyan hummed in agreement.

The two fell silent again.

Seeing that they were halfway through the journey, Xu Mo pursed his lips.

My mother's words still linger in my mind.

The boy looked at the beautiful girl beside him, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke:

"My mom said earlier that she might want to go out and have fun with your mom."

"Yes, Mom mentioned it."

Song Shuyan looked at Xu Mo: "Are you going out to play too?"

Xu Mo quickly shook his head: "No, it's no fun. I'd rather stay home and rest, playing games is so much better."

"Uh-huh!"

Song Shuyan nodded repeatedly.

The happy feeling flashed by, quickly turning into an equal amount of disappointment.

"What's wrong?" Xu Mo asked, somewhat surprised.

"I have no games to play."

Xu Mo looked at Song Shuyan, whose lips were slightly pursed, and whose eyes and brows revealed a... pitiful look.

That invitation was uttered without any thought; it just slipped out.

"Then come to my house to play."

"Anyway, I'm at home with nothing to do. My parents don't play games either, and the game console is just sitting idle. We can continue with 'Two-Player Ride,' or you can play something else if you want!"

Before Xu Mo could finish speaking, Song Shuyan's eyes immediately lit up.

(happy!)

"real?"

Xu Mo nodded firmly: "Really!"

The girl's disappointment vanished instantly, replaced by undisguised joy.

(So ​​happy!)

Song Shuyan's smile was like the sun breaking through the clouds.

Xu Mo had never seen such a smile on her face before.

Bright and radiant, blooming without reservation.

Heart pounding.

"Let's go, I'll take you home first. If you get bored and want to play games later, just message me and I'll come pick you up."

"Uh-huh!"

On the way back, Song Shuyan's steps were much lighter than usual, and her ponytail swayed slightly with each step.

The girl's lips still couldn't help but curve upwards.

The joy did not fade from the girl's heart; instead, it grew with time, fueling her anticipation.

Xu Mo sensed this emotion, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

In a short while, the two arrived at the foot of Song Shuyan's house.

There was no one downstairs.

However, by this time, once Song Shuyan gets upstairs, there will definitely be someone at home.

"We've arrived. I'll head back now."

Song Shuyan looked at the young man in front of her and nodded slightly.

"Xu Mo, Happy National Day."

Xu Mo smiled and said, "Happy National Day! Let me know if you want to play games, and I'll come pick you up!"

Song Shuyan's eyes lit up again, and a smile returned to her face.

"Okay! Got it!"

After saying that, the girl turned around, swiped her card, and walked into the building.

The glass doors closed, and Song Shuyan walked towards the elevator lobby.

As she walked to the elevator lobby, she suddenly turned around and looked towards the entrance of the building.

Xu Mo remained standing there.

Song Shuyan raised his arm and waved.

Xu Mo waved back, looking at the girl's exceptionally gentle appearance.

The girl then walked into the elevator lobby.

It's no longer visible.

Xu Mo let out a soft breath and turned to walk towards his home.

The evening breeze carried a warm feeling.

But Song Shuyan's smile seemed warmer.

"It seems we're out of snacks at home. Tsk, I'll buy some when I take Fugui out for a walk later. Oh, and drinks too."

"I wonder what Song Shuyan likes to eat. Oh well, I'll just buy more. I can just ask my mom for the money anyway."

Xu Mo stood with his hands in his pockets, pondering his next move.

He hadn't considered whether Song Shuyan would come.

The answer is almost certainly yes.

As for Song Shuyan's brother.

Xu Mo didn't think this was a problem.

After all, Song Shuyan hung up the phone so decisively.

And his brother didn't call back later.

What does this mean?

Brother in the family.

Besides, he and Song Shuyan are just good friends!

He, Xu Mo, is so open and honest!

But as he walked, the boy couldn't help but frown.

urgent!

What should I do if my best friend's brother is suspected of having a sister complex?
