106 Iâll Call Sister
Seeing this, the three aunties hurriedly bent forward to help with her bags. Lin Ci instantly felt much more relaxed.
âYoung girl, let us help you carry some of it. Come, Auntie will bring you there, itâs very close.â
...
It was the first time Lin Ci was surrounded with so much hospitality, and she was unused to it; all she could do was thank them repeatedly as she followed behind them.
The neighborhood was not big, and Lu Ningâs family lived in the front row. It was also very close, so they arrived shortly.
Along the way, the aunties chatted enthusiastically with Lin Ci.
âThis young girl is really good-looking; sheâs just like Lu Ning, that girlâs really beautiful. Thatâs the first time weâve seen such a beautiful girl! At first, we thought that she wouldnât be easy to get along with since sheâs used to living in a big manor, but after seeing her twice, we felt that she was really easy to get along with. Donât you think so, as her classmate?â
Lin Ci could only nod and agree.
The other two aunties were not to be outdone. âThatâs right, thatâs right. After talking with her I came to like her very much, sheâs so well-mannered! I really like her a lot. If not for the fact that sheâs still young, I wouldâve introduced her to my son and had him take a good look.â
âWell, you really should keep your eye on her. Ningâningâs about to reach adulthood, right? In two yearsâ time, thereâll be so many suitors wanting to woo her theyâll break down their front door. Sheâs such a good girl after all. If you donât get in her good graces, your son wonât even stand a chance in the future; besides, didnât your son just enter university? One or two yearsâ difference isnât a big deal.â
Lin Ciâs face tensed up when she heard that; she was so embarrassed, she did not know what to do.
She tried her best to minimize her presence, only hoping to reach Lu Ningâs place as soon as possible.
Fortunately, they were almost there.
âHey, young girl, over here. Itâs just upstairs, letâs go.â
The aunties excitedly brought her upstairs and helped carry her things.
Lin Ci followed behind. After walking for so long, she was a little sweaty.
The auntie who reached first rapped on the door and rang the doorbell.
âOld Lu, Yunci! You home?â
They had lived here for a long time and everyone was very familiar with them, so they were all quite cordial and amicable with each other.
After a short while, the door opened. The three aunties simply placed everything inside the house, then nudged Lin Ci into the doorway.
âThis girl is Lu Ningâs classmate. She couldnât find your house so we brought her here. Alright, weâre off.â
With that, they left.
âThank you, aunties.â Lin Ci poked her head out, thanking them.
She turned around and greeted them. âHello, Uncle and Auntie. Iâm Lin Ci, Ningâningâs classmate. Is Ningâning home?â
As she spoke, she looked around and did not see Lu Ning, so she decided to inquire a bit.
When Lu Zhi saw her, he broke into a smile. âOh, I know you, Iâve seen you before. Ningâning is tired so sheâs still resting. Have a seat, Iâll go get her for you.â
Shen Yunci immediately beckoned her over. âCome in, girl. Thereâs a seat here.â
When Lu Jingzhi heard that he was going to call Lu Ning, he bounded down from the sofa.
âDaddy, you should entertain our guest. Iâll go get Sister.â
âSure, alright, go ahead.â
Lu Jingzhi turned around and headed in; Lu Zhi went into the kitchen and began to cut some more fruits.
Lin Ci sat down obediently beside Shen Yunci.
âAuntie, this is some ointment my grandfather made, it should be effective for your recovery. Try it, if itâs useful Iâll get more for you.â
Lin Ci took a small flask out from her bag and handed it over.
Shen Yunci was surprised as she accepted it. âYouâre so considerate. Did your grandfather make it for me? Please, give him my thanks.â
Lin Ci nodded.
Lu Zhi came out from the kitchen with a platter of sliced fruit. âYou silly girl, you didnât have to bring so many things just to visit.â
