Chapter 352 Do You Think I'm a Lucky Star?
In the evening, Zuo Jiali came as expected, and he arrived before dark. He also brought a lot of food and toys for Li Suining, turning the inquiry room into a place for children to play.
The little girl pulled his arm and acted coquettishly, "Brother Zuo Er, I don't like these toys. I want to go out and see the stars."
"Look at the stars?" Zuo Jiali said with disdain, "What's so good about the stars? Besides..."
He said helplessly, "You are in prison now and you can't get out easily."
"Hmph!" Little Dumpling turned his back in anger, looking as if he didn't want to pay attention to him. "But you clearly said you could take me out yesterday, but you don't want to today. I'm not happy."
Zuo Jiali laughed, he found that he really couldn't refuse this guy's request now.
"Okay, okay, it will be dark soon, and I will take you out."
He quickly agreed. After all, Li Suining was just a four-year-old child. He thought it was no problem as he just wanted to look at the stars and he wouldn't run away.
"Thank you, Brother Zuo Er!" Little Dumpling was finally happy, and his big black eyes instantly curved into crescents.
Seeing that the little girl was happy, Zuo Jiali was happy too, although he didn't know what was so beautiful about the stars. He really wanted to say that the stars in his sister's eyes were the most beautiful.
The two children, one big and one small, played with the toys he brought in the inquiry room, and Zuo Jiali actually had a lot of fun playing with them.
Finally, it was almost dark outside, and Zuo Jiali led Xiaotuanzi out of the inquiry room.
You San had been guarding outside the whole time. Seeing this, he subconsciously stepped forward and said, "Second Young Master, what are you doing..."
He glanced at the little girl with some embarrassment, "Second Young Master, Li Suining is, after all... a prisoner, and cannot leave the interrogation room."
"What are you afraid of? We're not going far." Zuo Jiali put on a stern face and acted like a young master. "Let's just go for a walk in the yard. If anyone runs away, I'll take responsibility."
Yu San was still a little confused.
"Uncle Yousan," the little girl held Zuo Jiali's big hand, tilted her head back, and said pitifully, "I'll just stand by the door and look at the stars. I won't run around."
She stretched out her free little hand and said, "If Uncle Yousan is worried, you can hold my hand. I will definitely run around."
You San looked at the little hand that the little dumpling stretched out. It was white and tender, with short fingers, and it was extremely cute.
He obviously wanted to hold her hand, but because of his status he was afraid that his hands would be too dirty, so he froze there, not knowing what to do.
Zuo Jiali said impatiently, "Just hold it if I tell you to. Don't waste time here."
"Okay, okay!" You San rubbed his hands vigorously on the clothes, making sure they were clean, and then gently took the little dumpling's hand.
He explained awkwardly, "That's fine too. I'll go with you. If Lord Zuo asks, I can explain it."
"Let's go." After all, Xiaotuanzi didn't want to run away, so she was actually quite happy to have someone accompany her.
The three of them quickly left the prison. A cold wind blew in their faces, and the little girl shrank her neck due to the cold.
Zuo Jiali quickly took off his cloak and put it on the little girl, saying with a hint of reproach, "Did you wear so little when you came here?"
"Well, it didn't seem so cold back then." The little girl's cheeks were red from the cold, but she looked very happy.
"Thank you, Brother Zuo Er." She smiled gratefully at Zuo Jiali, and soon looked at the night sky intently.
The night sky tonight is blue and deep, the stars are particularly bright, and the messages they convey are also very clear.
Little Dumpling asked Xingxing the questions she had already thought of. After getting the answers, her little face became more solemn.
Zuo Jiali and You San had been standing by, looking at the little guy from time to time. When they noticed the change in the little guy's expression, they were obviously a little puzzled.
"Hey, Li Suining," Zuo Jiali couldn't help but call out to the little girl, "What's wrong with you? What are you thinking about?"
The little girl didn't say anything, but her eyes were red.
You San couldn't help but whisper a reminder, "Some say that people turn into stars after they leave this world, so when you miss a loved one, you can look up at the stars."
He glanced at the little girl and asked, "Is she missing one of her relatives?"
However, You San waited for a while but did not hear Zuo Jiali's reply. He looked up and saw that Zuo Jiali's expression looked even sadder than Xiaotuanzi's.
He didn't dare to speak for a moment, and quickly looked up at the stars intently.
The three of them were silent for a while, and Xiaotuanzi finally asked the last question.
She sniffed and wiped the tears from her face.
The little guy took a deep breath like a little adult, and looked up at the two people on his left and right.
When she saw Zuo Jiali, she suddenly realized that this guy was crying.
"Brother Zuo Er, what's wrong with you?" Little Tuanzi asked with concern, gently shaking Zuo Jiali's hand.
Zuo Jiali came to his senses and quickly turned his head to wipe away his tears.
"It's okay." He spoke quickly and pretended to be relaxed, but the look he gave the little dumpling clearly showed that he wanted to say something but hesitated.
He really wanted to ask little Tuanzi, do you think of daddy when you look at the stars?
"Then let's go back." The little dumpling had obviously returned to his previous state.
"Well, let's go." Zuo Jiali didn't ask any more questions and led the little girl back.
Back in the interrogation room, Xiaotuanzi pulled Zuo Jiali and said, "Second Brother Zuo, they all say I'm a lucky star. What do you think?"
"Hmm?" Zuo Jiali smiled when he heard that. "Maybe. After you came to the Bai family, their life has been getting better and better. If Bai Yunfeng hadn't had other ideas..."
The little girl pouted instantly, obviously unhappy.
Zuo Jiali had no choice but to stop there and directly answered Xiaotuanzi's question, "Well, my second brother also thinks you are a lucky star."
"Then, second brother, if you go to the Imperial College tomorrow, don't take the road to the market." Little Dumpling said seriously.
"Huh?" Zuo Jiali was confused. "Why?"
Xiaotuanzi naturally saw that something was going to happen on that road. If Zuo Jiali left tomorrow, he might be seriously injured.
However, she couldn't go into too much detail, otherwise it might arouse Zuo Jiali's suspicion.
"I don't know either. Anyway, Brother Zuo Er, just listen to me tomorrow and don't go there."
The little dumpling has squinting eyes and looks so chubby that it’s impossible to refuse.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. We won't take that road tomorrow." Zuo Jiali smiled and shook his head.
He thought for a moment and then tentatively asked, "Can I understand that my sister is concerned about me?"
The little dumpling nodded his head vigorously, "Of course I care about my second brother, and I also care about your bad brother."
Zuo Jiali realized that Xiaotuanzi was talking about Zuo Sixian, and immediately couldn't help laughing.
"Bad brother, hahaha... Little Dumpling, you really don't want to call him brother. If you call him brother a few more times, he might not lock you up in the interrogation room."
