Ning Ruyan put his hand on Jun Zeye"s shoulder, gazed at the sky, and lamented, "Time flies. You"re 17 years old already… I still remember back when I met you in the special forces…"

Jun Zeye looked away from the cake. Apparently, he wasn"t too interested in reminiscing the past with his friend because he continued walking forward.

Ning Ruyan quickly caught up to him. "Hey! Every time I bring up the past, you don"t want to hear it. You"re a strange guy. Why don"t you like to reminisce the past?"

"What"s the point?" Jun Zeye cast a glance at him.

Ning Ruyan rubbed his nose and coughed. "It"s only you who thinks it"s pointless. You don"t want to waste time reminiscing about past, but it doesn"t mean that it"s meaningless. Well, let"s not talk about it then. Let"s go buy beer."

The two got onto the escalator in the supermarket.

Ning Ruyan looked at him and asked, "If I were to propose to celebrate your birthday, you wouldn"t agree to it, right?"

Jun Zeye said, "Don"t tell anyone about it."

He didn"t know what was the matter with him to suddenly talk about his birthday.

He shouldn"t have talked about that.

Ning Ruyan understood what he meant. He made a zipping motion at his lips and then gave him an OK gesture. "Alright! This is a secret between us. I definitely won"t let anyone know about hits."

"Yeah," Jun Zeye replied mildly.

The handrail was very long and they continued to move upwards.

They kept quiet and stopped the idle chatter.

Ning Ruyan was adjusting his hairstyle as he looked at the mirror on the wall.

Jun Zeye looked around. Something caught his eye.

When they got to the supermarket, Ning Ruyan pushed a shopping cart and went straight to the beer section.

After getting some beer he also went to get some snacks.

When pa.s.sing through the dessert section, Ning Ruyan turned to ask him, "Do you want to buy a cake?"

Jun Zeye ignored him, continued walking forward, and picked up a spoon on the shelf.

Perplexed, Ning Ruyan asked, "Why do you want to buy a spoon?"

"I"m just browsing." Jun Zeye looked at him and put the metal spoon back.

From his expression, Ning Ruyan seemed to realize something and he smiled and said, "Take it if you like. We"ll buy two, one for each of us."

With that said, he took the two spoons from the shelf and put it in the shopping cart.

"What else do you want to buy?" he asked Jun Zeye.

"Nothing else. Let"s go." Jun Zeye said casually.

"Alright, I"ll get some Lou Mei dishes, then."

The two pushed the shopping cart to check out.

They had two full bags of items. Ning Ruyan carried one in each hand while Jun Zeye carried nothing.

The two exited the supermarket and went separate ways.

The neighborhood was a beautiful and verdant environment.

Jun Zeye was holding his cell phone, looking as though he were making a call as he walked into a small pavilion nearby.

A black shadow followed behind him.

However, Jun Zeye disappeared right under his nose.

"Who are you!" An arm tapped on the man"s shoulder.

Shocked, the man reflexively turned back and threw a punch.

However, Jun Zeye hooked the man"s arm and with a backhand press, he held the man to the pillar.

"Who are you? Why are you following me?" Jun Zeye asked coldly.

The man suddenly panicked and feigned ignorance. "What are you talking about? When did I ever follow you? I don"t even know you! Let go of me or I"ll call the police! Help, someone"s trying to kill me!"
