9:48 pm.
The night is as dark as ink, thickly spread over every corner of Caizhou.
A slightly old van slowly moved forward on the street with flashing lights, and finally stopped steadily in front of a building.
The car door creaked open, and Gu Luo stepped out from the passenger seat with his long legs. After getting out of the car, he stretched his body.
Then, his eyes caught the slender figure who had been waiting quietly downstairs.
The moonlight was like water, sprinkling on Luo Shuning's body, outlining her graceful figure.
She came over and said with a smile: "Brother is finally here."
"There's a traffic jam on the road, otherwise we could have left earlier." Gu Luo responded with a wry smile. As he spoke, he moved his limbs to dispel the stiffness after sitting for a long time.
At this time, Gu Ximan also jumped down from the back seat of the van. She yawned and muttered:
"Why is there such a traffic jam so late at night?"
"Who said it wasn't?" The driver also got out of the car. He was a little fat and his face showed the traces of time.
He subconsciously took out a somewhat shriveled cigarette box from his pocket, but when his eyes caught sight of the three children, he hesitated for a moment, then put the cigarette box back and sighed:
"There's nothing we can do about it. There are too many people in Caizhou. Even if we limit the number of cars, it won't work."
As he spoke, he walked to the back of the van, opened the trunk, and took out the two people's belongings one by one.
"Excuse me, uncle."
Seeing this, Gu Luo hurried over to help.
"Hey, young people nowadays are very polite. My daughter is the same age as you, and she is also very polite." When mentioning his daughter, the driver smiled subconsciously with a little pride.
The floor was nearly filled with stuff—three oversized suitcases, four backpacks, and a large bag.
The driver looked at the items and turned to Gu Luo and asked, "That should be all. My trunk is a bit messy, don't leave anything behind."
"Nothing less, thank you uncle."
"Hey, then I'll go first. I still have some orders in my hand." The driver uncle said as he sat in the driving seat. After fastening his seat belt, he took out the cigarette box, squeezed it with his hands, and couldn't wait to take out a cigarette from it.
But it didn't ignite.
"Uncle, be safe."
The driver waved his hand, stepped on the accelerator, and the van slowly drove away, disappearing into the night.
Luo Shuning then stepped forward, examining the bag curiously. Seeing the faint outline inside, he blinked his watery eyes and asked, "Brother, what is this?"
"It's my doll."
Before Gu Luo could speak, Gu Ximan answered first and then opened the bag.
The bag is filled with panda dolls of various shapes. Some of them are lying there in a cute manner, some are hugging bamboo mischievously, or are curled up quietly to sleep.
"Wow, so many, so cute." Luo Shuning reached out and picked up a panda doll that was in a sleeping position, and said to Gu Ximan with a smile:
"My sister really likes dolls."
"Yeah....ahem...it's okay, I just like it a little bit." Gu Ximan was about to say that she liked it, but she caught a glimpse of Gu Luo standing beside her out of the corner of her eye, and immediately changed her words.
Then he pretended to be nonchalant and said, "It's because someone always sends me a doll on my birthday every year."
Upon hearing this, this person immediately gave her a glare and said, "You're taking things out of context. Besides the doll, I also gave her other gifts, okay?"
"Next time you tell a lie, please check the clothes and shoes you are wearing to see if they are a birthday gift from someone this year."
Hearing this, Gu Ximan's face immediately turned red, but she refused to give in and said to Luo Shuning, who was smiling like an auntie beside her:
"Tell you a secret, my brother is actually a die-hard sister-con."
"Really?" Luo Shuning pretended to be surprised.
"It's true, absolutely true!"
Gu Luo picked up the backpack on the ground and glanced at Gu Ximan again, "This brother-con man, next time you say bad things, can you please not say them in front of me?"
"Ouch!" Gu Ximan made a playful face at him.
This lively look, even with a funny face, still looks playful and cute.
"Brother and sister have such a good relationship." Luo Shuning chuckled with her hands covering her mouth, then leaned over to help pick up the things.
...... ......
The three of them took the elevator to the sixteenth floor, carrying bags of various sizes.
After Luo Shuning unlocked the door with his fingerprint, the three of them walked into the apartment.
The living room is spacious and bright, with a luxurious long sofa in the center. The leather material has a delicate luster under the light.
The chandelier above the head is gorgeous in shape, making the whole house look like a palace.
The apartment is divided into two floors, and you can see the huge floor-to-ceiling windows as soon as you open the door.
In short, it is 䭼豪.
"Brother, I'll get you some slippers." Luo Shuning said, bending down and taking out two pairs of slippers, one large and one small, from the cabinet at the door.
"Thanks."
"Thanks."
