Lu Zhi hurriedly patted her back. "Don't get angry now, he might've been delayed by something. Open the door first, Ning'ning will be here soon. Let's not make our daughter unhappy."
Shen Yunci was incensed, but she did not say anything else.
Gu Chen and Gu Zi looked at each other in silence.
…
"Sister, the shape of this leaf is so strange."
Lu Ning watched as he picked up another leaf and could not help but giggle. "It's a little strange, but it's also very pretty."
Lu Jingzhi nodded and held her hand with a smile. The two of them slowly walked home.
During this time, Lu Jingzhi looked up at the window of their house; the light was on.
He smiled and did not pick up any more leaves, and simply followed Lu Ning all the way home.
When they reached the house, Lu Ning knocked on the door.
"Mom, Dad, we're back."
But no one answered.
Lu Jingzhi glanced at her. "Sister, the door doesn't seem to be locked."
