After about ten minutes, the ambulance finally arrived at the community.

When Lin Yu was carried on the car on a stretcher by the nurse, she glanced back in a wicked manner. She saw the baby-faced man who helped her open the elevator door last night. It's a pity that she only had time to take a look, and was carried into the car. The captain of the property and Aunt Wang accompanied her in the car.

Soon she fell asleep in a daze. At the moment before going to bed, she once again remembered the look in the eyes of the baby-faced man looking at her last night.

It seemed to be looking at something on her body, and it seemed to take a casual glance, maybe it was just that she was too suspicious.

In order to comfort the "frightened" Wang Hang, Qi Yan had to accompany him to lunch.

When passing by the old alley yesterday, he asked Wang Hang to park the car to the side of the road and get off to see the situation in the alley.

Unlike the weird silence yesterday afternoon, this alley is very lively with people coming and going.

At this time during the summer vacation, many children were playing under the banyan tree, and several plant experts were surrounding the banyan tree to study the cause of its sudden large-scale fall of leaves.

The old people looked at the big tree anxiously, muttering things like the tree was here when they were young.

"The young man passed by here?" Seeing that Qi Yan is unfamiliar and should not be a neighbor in the neighborhood, an old man enthusiastically pointed to the front, "This is a dead alley. You can't get through. You can go outside."

"Okay, thank you." Qi Yan looked up at the big banyan tree and found that many of the leaves on the canopy had turned yellow, making a swish sound in the breeze.

"This tree is hundreds of years old now," the old man noticed that Qi Yan was looking at the big tree, thinking he was wondering why this tree is so big, and began to explain to him, "Generally, banyan trees do not live so long. But it's an exception. These years have been fine, and I don't know what's going on. After a rain yesterday, the leaves suddenly turned yellow so much."

The old lady's tone was full of worries, and her muddy eyes were filled with distress and nostalgia, as if she had fallen into his past memories.

"When I was eight years old, it was already very tall and big, so many years passed in the blink of an eye..."

Listening to the old man's words, Qi Yan glanced over the big tree that was worried by countless people, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, old man, this tree will definitely be fine. Maybe it's in a good mood and wants to change its leaves."

The old man smiled and happily said that at this moment, the wrinkles left on his face by the years have stretched a lot.

Farewell to the old man, Qi Yan walked out of the alley, looked back at this lively and warm alley, and returned to Wang Hang's car humming a small song.

"I met a beautiful woman in the alley, so happy?" Wang Hang started the car and joked, "The female classmate in the class asked you how you are in the group a few days ago, but didn't see you come out to say something."

"I didn't notice, I haven't played WeChat groups in the past few days," Qi Yan turned his head and smiled, "You help me thank you."

Wang Hang looked at him speechlessly: "Really meaningless to her?"

Qi Yan shook his head: "I don't have this thought now, so don't let people have hope. If you are boring and ambiguous to others, it will be unlucky for morality and character."
