The few of them walked out together. When they reached the school gate, some students from Class 9 waved Lu Ning goodbye; Lu Ning smiled and waved back at them.
However, she noticed a black car parked at the end of the street. It was already dark, and there were no lights in that place, so she could not see the license plate clearly.
“Ning’ning, let’s go.”
Lin Ci patted her shoulder.
Lu Ning nodded; she called Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi on her phone again, but no one picked up.
“Are Uncle and Auntie still not picking up?”
Lu Ning nodded.
Lu Qing frowned and looked at the phone screen. “What do you mean? Are Mom and Dad not answering their phones?
Lu Ning nodded.
Lu Qing could not help but worry. They were not people who would not answer the phone often.
“Should we go look for… Aiya!’
Before Gu Zi could finish speaking, Lu Jingzhi had pinched his nose.
He was even chuckling after pinching it.
Gu Zi immediately raised his hand to slap his butt. “You brat! Why are you still smiling! Let me give you a pinch to see if it hurts.”
The two of them were rowdily chatting and laughing. Gu Chen looked at Lu
Ning. “Do you need me to look for them?”
Lu Ning took a deep breath. “Let’s wait a little longer; they might’ve been delayed by something. I’ll call you if they aren’t back by tonight.”
Gu Chen nodded.
Lu Qing drove the car over, and Lu Ning carried Lu Jingzhi over from Gu Zi.
Only then did the two of them stop bickering.
They were ruffling each other’s hair, and their hair were a mess. Lu Ning carried Lu Jingzhi into the car, and Lin Ci followed suit.
Lu Qing asked for Lin Ci’s address, and sent her off.
Then, he brought Lu Ning and Lu Jingzhi home.
Lu Ning and Lu Jingzhi got out of the car at the entranceway, while Lu Qing went to park the car. The two of them did not wait for him as they slowly walked home.
“Sister, are we going to the racecourse tomorrow?
Lu Ning nodded. “That’s right.”
“Are those two sisters going as well? Did you tell them?”
Lu Ning looked at him and smiled. “Yes, I did. Sister Lin Ci will be there too.”
Lu Jingzhi also smiled and nodded, looking a little more excited.
“Can I ride a horse if I go?
“Sure. ”
“But I don’t know how.”
“I can teach you.”
“Sister is amazing! You even know how to ride a horse!”
Lu Ning smiled and held his hand as they walked forward. The street lamps illuminated them, their bodies casting long shadows on the pavement.
Lu Qing caught up to them; when he saw this scene of them, he stopped and took out his phone to take a picture of their backs.
When the three of them returned home, Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi were not home.
Lu Ning was still a little worried.
However, after worrying for about half an hour, she was about to call Gu Chen to ask him to check on them when Lu Zhi called back.
He said that he had something urgent to deal with and would not be back with Shen Yunci today, so he asked the three children to take care of themselves.
Lu Ning agreed to each of them, and finally felt relieved.
Lu Jingzhi was looking around the room for a long time, when eventually he stuck his head out and looked at Lu Ning. “Sister, should I pick out some clothes?”
Lu Ning smiled at him and walked over.
“Pick out a few sets of clothes from there, I’ll come back and help you choose. However, you’ll still be changing into riding clothes when you get to the racecourse, so just choose something comfortable.” Lu Jingzhi nodded obediently. “Sister, are you going out?”
Lu Ning: ‘Yes, Sister has something on.”
“Alright, be careful.”
Lu Ning assured him, looking at him with a smile.
She walked to the door to change her shoes, put on her coat, and was about to leave.
Lu Qing poked his head out from the kitchen. “Are you going to have dinner at home?
“I have something to do. I’ll go out for a while and come back to eat..”
