Chapter 529 Tears The dusk fell completely, and the street lights in the community lit up one after another.
The evening breeze carried the chill of the winter night, forcing the residents to wrap their coats tightly. There were only the sounds of sporadic footsteps and children's laughter.
Although Luo Shuling can go out, she is only slightly better off than Luo Shuning and Luo Shuhe. She can only wander around the community.
And they were not allowed to bring their cell phones. It was obvious that Luo Liang did not want to give Gu Luo any chance.
Luo Shuling, wearing a goose yellow down jacket and a woolen hat tilted on her head, was squatting on a cushion in the fitness area, playing with building blocks with four other children.
Her fingers nimbly placed the small squares, and from time to time she helped the little girl in a pink down jacket next to her to straighten her crooked "castle". With a smile in her eyes, her voice was soft:
"Take your time, don't rush. Our castle needs to be the strongest."
"Sister Ling, my tower is falling!"
The little girl with pigtails came over holding a building block, her nose red from the cold, her tone full of grievance.
Luo Shuling immediately put down the building blocks in her hand and taught her how to adjust the angle. When she touched the little girl's cold hands, she even wrapped them with her own hands: "Look, put the big blocks at the bottom and the small ones on top, just like building a house, so it won't fall down."
The children gathered around her even tighter. Some passed blocks to her, some pointed at the blueprints and offered suggestions. Even the little girl who was playing shuttlecock next to her ran over and sat down next to Luo Shuling, handing her her woolen gloves.
"Sister Ling, your hands are cold, wear my gloves."
Luo Shuling smiled and shook her head, pushing the gloves back: "Sister is not cold, you wear them yourself, don't freeze your hands."
As she was playing, she noticed Luo Liang walking out of the building with a sullen face. His face was as sullen as the night outside the window. He was walking out of the single door and walked towards the pavilion with heavy steps. After sitting down, he turned his back to this side. His figure was in the shadows that could not be illuminated by the street lights. He was motionless and no one knew what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Luo Shuling narrowed her eyes and immediately said goodbye to the children.
When she was in the mood to play, a child pulled the corner of her clothes and shook it, and the child's voice was full of pleading:
"Sister Ling, play for a while longer! We haven't played hide-and-seek yet!"
The children nearby chimed in, all shouting, "Yes, yes, Sister Ling, can you be the one looking for me?"
Luo Shuling's smile faded slightly. She patted the head of the child beside her and said in a gentle but apologetic tone, "It's not possible today. Sister has to go home. Let's play hide-and-seek tomorrow, okay?"
The children's faces immediately fell. The little girl in the pink down jacket tugged at her sleeve and refused to let go: "Sister Ling, you must come tomorrow!"
"I'll definitely come."
Luo Shuling smiled and nodded, slowly stood up and walked towards home.
When I opened the door, the lights in the kitchen were on, and the warm yellow light was reflected on the figure sitting at the dining table.
Luo Shuning sat on a chair with her back to the door, her long black hair hanging down on her shoulders. She was motionless, with only occasional faint sobs coming from her.
Seeing this, Luo Shuling tiptoed over. As soon as she got close, she saw Luo Shuning's hands hanging down at her side, folded together. On her left cheek, there was a light red palm print, which was particularly conspicuous under the light.
Luo Shuling's brows furrowed instantly. Without saying anything, she turned and walked into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator door, and took out a bag of ice.
There was still frost on the bag, so she found a clean towel to wrap it around it to prevent the ice from touching her skin.
Luo Shuning's eyes were red and swollen, and there was no spirit in them. Only undried tears were still hanging on her eyelashes, and they slid down her cheeks when she blinked.
"Where's me?"
Luo Shuling lowered her voice, took the ice pack wrapped in a towel, and carefully applied it to Luo Shuning's cheek.
The coolness from the ice pack came through the towel, and Luo Shuning's body trembled slightly. He still stared blankly ahead, as if he had lost his soul.
Luo Shuling maintained this posture, half bent over to her side, with her other hand gently resting on her shoulder.
She didn't ask what happened, nor did she say words of comfort. She just gently pressed the warmth of her palm against Luo Shuning's shoulder, accompanying him in silence.
No language today can compare to the quiet protection at this moment.
