Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Li Nian, who was hugging her knees, felt the light around her and subconsciously shrank her body away. She did not look up and only hugged herself tightly.
Until she heard footsteps beside her and a familiar voice calling her name.
Li Nian was stunned for a moment. She looked up and saw Lu Ning standing in front of her with her back against the light.
At that moment, the light lit up the darkness in front of her.
Li Nian looked up and Lu Ning saw her face clearly.
“It’s really you, Li Nian.”
Li Nian was still a little dazed.
Lu Ning bent down and reached out to help her up.
Li Nian was taken aback for a moment. She looked at Lu Nings outstretched hand and did not move.
Lu Ning looked at her and was a little worried. She noticed the tears on her face and the red finger marks on her cheek.
She frowned slightly, but did not probe. She only said, “Let me help you up. It’s cold on the floor.’
Li Nian hesitated, but in the end, she raised her hand and placed it in Lu Nings palm.
Lu Ning pulled her up and patted the dirt off her body.
Lu Ning did not ask anything and only smiled at her. “It’s too cold outside.
Come with me to my house to warm up. It’s just over there, we’ll be there soon. ”
Li Nian’s reaction was a little slow. After a while, she looked in the direction she was pointing.
“Is your house around here?”
Li Nian’s voice was a little hoa.r.s.e.
Lu Ning looked at the thin clothes she was wearing.
“Yes, let’s go. It’s too cold here.”
Lu Ning raised her hand to pull her back, and Li Nian subconsciously dodged. Lu Ning did not mind and pulled her arm as they walked forward. “My parents should be done cooking now, you can eat with us. After dinner, we can take a walk in the neighborhood. By the way, my bed is very big, so you can even stay over tonight.
“I’ve never slept in a bed with a friend before. It should be pretty fun.”
Li Nian looked at her smiling face with a complicated gaze.
She did not ask anything since the beginning, she only wanted her to relax a little.
“By the way, this is my younger brother, Lu Jingzhi. You can call him Jingzhi.”
Li Nian turned around and saw a little boy sitting in the backseat, looking at her with his big eyes.
Lu Ning looked at Lu Jingzhi. “Jingzhi, this is Sister Li Nian. She’s Sister’s friend.’
Lu Jingzhi looked at Li Nian and smiled. “h.e.l.lo, Sister Li Nian.”
Li Nian was startled for a moment. She looked at his curved lips and replied softly, “h.e.l.lo, Jingzhi.”
Lu Ning looked at Lu Jingzhi. “Jingzhi, come down and let Sister Li Nian sit here, Can you stand in front? We’ll be home soon.”
Lu Jingzhi nodded and got down obediently.
Lu Ning pushed the scooter and got on. She pulled Lu Jingzhi to the footrest in front of her and turned to look at Li Nian. “Li Nian, do you mind sitting in the back?”
Li Nian paused for two seconds before walking over and saying softly, “1 don’t mind.’
Then, she sat in the back seat.
“Are you seated? Alright, I’m setting off.”
Only then did Lu Ning start the bike.
Perhaps to ease Li Nian’s emotions, Lu Ning spoke a lot along the way.
“l don’t know when the streetlights on this road broke down. When Jing Lu and I pa.s.sed by here just now, we drove very quickly…”
Along the way, Li Nian would answer her softly.
When they reached the apartment building, Lu Ning parked the car and looked at the two of them.
“Let’s go.”
Lu Jingzhi took the initiative to take the things from Lu Nings hands and walked in front.
Lu Ning turned around and held Li Nian’s arm. “It’s on the second floor..”
