Shen Yunci nodded and did not say anything else aside from discussing with Lu Zhi what dishes to make for the children later.
As soon as Lu Ning returned to her room and sat down, she received a message from Huo Jinyan; she glanced at it without replying. Instead, she turned to look at Jiang Zhou and Song Qinghe’s messages.
She replied to their messages while lying down. After lying down for ten minutes, her phone rang. Lu Ning was caught off guard and was startled.
She picked up Lin Ci’s call.
“Hey, you’re back! Did you bring me a gift?”
Without waiting for Lu Ning to speak, Lin Ci spoke straightforwardly.
“Yes, I did.”
Lin Ci smiled. “That’s great, at least you have a conscience. Wait for me. I’ll be there soon!”
“Huh? There where?”
“Your house. Prepare to receive me!”
Then, she hung up.
Lu Ning:
Lu Ning looked at the phone that had been hung up and smiled helplessly. She kept her phone away and went to organize her things. After packing her things, she put the gifts aside.
Then, she separated these gifts according to whom she would give them to.
Other than her parents and Lin Ci, there was no one else she was gifting.
Putting Lin Ci’s to one side, her gaze landed on a small wooden box.
She took the small wooden box. When she opened it, the fragrance of sandalwood wafted over. There was a bracelet in the middle of the small wooden box; Lu Ning hesitated for a moment before closing the box. Then, she placed the small wooden box in her drawer.
When Lin Ci came, she bought a lot of fruits. When she reached the entrance of the neighborhood, she bumped into Lu Qing.
“Just my luck to run into you.”
She could not help but mutter; she was very unhappy to see Lu Qing.
Ignoring him, she walked forward. Whether it was because the fruit bag was not sturdy or if she had hit something, the fruit bag tore and the apples spilled all over the ground.
One even rolled to Lu Qing’s feet, and he bent down to help her pick up the
Lin Ci glared at him angrily.
“… Just my luck to run into you!’
Lu Qing: .
“You’re going to my house, yet you didn’t expect to run into me?
Lin Ci mocked him as she picked up the fruits. “That’s right, I didn’t expect you. I’d have thought Uncle and Auntie had you kicked out long ago.”
Lu Qing:
Lu Qing knew that he had no chance of winning against her, so he shut up and stopped talking in front of her.
Since the bags were torn, Lin Ci could only hold the apples in her arms and could not carry the rest of the items. She glanced at the bags on the ground with some distress; just as she was wondering if she should call Lu Ning to pick her up, Lu Qing had already walked in front of her and picked up the bags on the ground. After glancing at her, he walked straight forward.
Lin Ci glared at and chased after him. “Hey! Did I ask you to get it for me?! I can do it myself! Put them down!”
Ignoring her nagging, Lu Qing did not speak or pay attention to her; he simply carried the bags and walked in front. Lin Ci chased after him, scolding him all this while.
When the door opened, Lin Ci adjusted her behavior in an instant. “Hello, Auntie, Uncle.”
Lu Qing spun his head around to look at the speed her behavior changed; he could not help but be surprised.
Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi were so happy to see Lin Ci that they quickly dragged hor in
“Little Ci, just come over next time. You didn’t have to bring so much! Why are you carrying them like that? Aren’t you tired?”
“I’m not tired, Auntie. It’s just that the bag broke on the way here, so I can only carry them here like this. It might be a little dirty, Auntie, please don’t mind it. ”
“Why would I mind it? Hurry up and pass them to Auntie, move your arms around or they’ll stiffen up..”
