Time slipped into mid-December. The wind in Caizhou was a little cooler than at the beginning of the month, but not to the point of being bone-chilling.
Most of the pedestrians on the street were wrapped in slightly thicker coats - some were velvet polo shirts, some were short thin down jackets. Occasionally, you could see girls wearing velvet jeans and short boots, revealing a small part of their slender ankles. Unlike the deep winter when there was no trace of lightness at all.
The sunlight was softer than usual, shining through the sparse clouds, falling on the bare branches, and making the road surface warm.
A lot of things happened during this period. For example, thanks to the Luo family, Tang Xiaoxiao returned to campus. After school on weekdays, she would go straight to Guangya to find Gu Luo and had become very familiar with the security guard.
For example, the 'Old Place' tavern became associated with Gu Luo thanks to the promotion of several young fans at the dinner party. Many students would patronize the tavern on weekdays, and business skyrocketed.
For example, Gu Luo usually avoids his adoptive father with Tang Qi's affairs. Of course, the most important purpose is definitely to cover up the affairs between him and his second sister, for fear that Gu Feng will suddenly come home.
For example, after some negotiations and understanding of some things, Gu Luo and Luo Tianlei decided on a time to meet.
For example, the relationship between Gu Luo and Luo Shuning is heating up rapidly, and some of the barriers in the past are almost disappearing. As for the reason, as long as Luo Shuning has a cooler expression, she can go out on a date with Gu Luo openly and honestly.
This day.
The gate of Guangya School was open. Half of the ginkgo tree at the gate still had golden leaves. When the wind blew, the leaves swirled down and fell onto the stone pavement at the gate.
Tang Xiaoxiao, as usual, was carrying a sky blue schoolbag and wearing a light grey velvet vest over her school uniform, which was zipped up to her chest, revealing the white collar of her school uniform shirt underneath.
Her hair was tied into a high ponytail, which swayed gently with her steps. She had an unrestrained smile on her face, and her steps were light and brisk as she walked to the school gate.
The security guard in the guard room was leaning on a chair and reading a newspaper. When he heard familiar footsteps, he looked up and smiled.
He stood up with his hands in his pockets and raised his chin towards Tang Xiaoxiao through the window. "Hey, Xiaoxiao, you're here to punch in on time to pick up your brother again? You came two minutes earlier today than yesterday. You really miss your brother so much that you never miss a day."
The uncle's voice was a little hoarse and warm. The window was open, and you could see the enamel cup in front of him, filled with steaming hot Juxiong tea.
Tang Xiaoxiao walked to the door of the guard room without stopping. She put her hands behind her back and stood on tiptoe slightly, her eyes sparkling. "Yes, Uncle Zhang! I was lucky today. The lights were all green when I walked over."
She shook the straps of her schoolbag, and the hem of her vest moved with it, then asked, "Uncle, why are you drinking Juxi tea today?"
"It's not that cold anymore. I had a lot of barbecue on my last two days off. Drinking some Juxi will help you cool down." Uncle Zhang smiled and pointed at her vest. "Your vest looks pretty warm. Did your brother buy it for you?"
"Yeah! Brother Gu Luo said that this vest is covered with thick fleece, so the wind can't blow through it." Tang Xiaoxiao nodded and chatted with the uncle for a few more words, but the topic always revolved around Gu Luo. She waved her hand and said:
"Uncle, I'm going to the club building first. I'll greet you when Brother Gu comes out later!"
"Go ahead, go ahead, and take your time on the road."
Uncle Zhang waved his hand and looked at her back. He couldn't help but mutter to the young security guard on duty next to him, "I heard from some female students that this little girl used to be in a wheelchair. It seems that she went to a temple in Caixin County next door, and after returning, she suddenly stood up."
The first time Tang Xiaoxiao came to Guangya to look for Gu Luo, she was recognized by some little fans who had seen her at school sports meets and charity dinners. After asking around, she learned the whole story from Luo Shuling.
Gradually, the news spread.
Hearing this, the young security guard chuckled and shook his head. "Captain, you can't really believe it. It must be a rumor. At most, he went there to burn some incense, and some people like to spread gossip, and then it became a rumor..."
It is worth mentioning that nowadays, Tang's father Tang Li is really regarded by Gu Luo as his lifelong benefactor. There is no such coincidence in the world. They believe that the reason why Tang Xiaoxiao was able to stand up was a miracle from the temple.
What's more, with Gu Luo's relationship, the business of the "Old Tavern" was very good. The two of them even hired several new employees, and they lived a leisurely life as bosses, only visiting the tavern occasionally.
All the time is left to my daughter.
That's right... Girls can't be kept at home when they grow up. Tang Xiaoxiao runs to Gu Luo's place every day, doesn't even go home for meals, and even stays there from time to time.
Tang Li was very pleased and relieved about this, but Tang's father... could only say that he dared not speak out but was jealous.
As parents, they could naturally see that Tang Xiaoxiao must have her own little thoughts about Gu Luo, but they just saw through it but didn't say it out loud, so they kept it a secret.
Leave everything to time.
Tang Xiaoxiao walked along the cobblestone path in the campus. The bushes on the side of the road were still a little green and had not turned completely yellow.
Occasionally, students wearing Guangya winter school uniforms would walk by not far away. Most of them wore slightly thicker coats like her - some were college-style tweed short jackets, and some were hooded fleece sweatshirts. When they spoke, a faint white mist would come out of their mouths, but it was not to the point of exhaling a cloud of fog.
“Xiaoxiao!”
