Chapter 562: Chapter 562: My Heart is About to Leap Out with Joy

Luo Qiao patted Stone on the back and said, "You’re getting so big, soon you’ll catch up to your sister in height, making your classmates laugh at you."

A classmate squeezed over and asked, "Sun Zhenglei, who is this?"

Stone, with a hint of pride, introduced them, "This is my sister, and this is my auntie."

The classmates started laughing, "Sun Zhenglei, your sister is really pretty."

Stone became even prouder and said, "Of course, she is my sister, the most beautiful one I’ve ever seen."

Luo Qiao greeted them with a smile, "Hello, everyone."

Then she took out a handful of White Rabbit Creamy Candies from her crossbody bag and handed one to each person, "Please take care of Zheng Lei for me from now on, and make sure to include him in your games."

Everyone who received a candy from Sun Zhenglei’s sister smiled and said, "Don’t worry, we’ll play with Sun Zhenglei. He’s even our class study group leader."

Lu Yichen, walking over from a distance, saw Luo Qiao there, his eyes lit up, and felt a pang of jealousy seeing her chatting and laughing with those mischievous boys.

He quickly walked up to her, "Qiaoqiao, you’re back."

A classmate who recognized Lu Yichen said, "Sun Zhenglei, your brother came to pick you up too, you’re really lucky."

After bidding farewell to their classmates, the four of them walked back together, with Stone chattering nonstop about school. Lu Yichen was anxious and could hardly get a word in while Luo Qiao continued to converse with Stone.

Gu Qianru, standing to the side, almost broke into laughter from trying so hard to hold it in; it was painfully funny watching her silly nephew.

Finally, she spoke up, "Stone, didn’t you have your eye on those pencils with erasers? I heard from Kong Linggang next door that they just got them in today; let’s go check it out together."

Stone was quite happy to hear this since he was in charge of his own New Year’s money and the pocket money his brother and sister gave him, so he wasn’t stingy about buying these school supplies.

He grabbed Luo Qiao, ready to turn the corner, but then Gu Qianru said, "Stone, just the two of us should go, let the two of them go buy groceries. By splitting up, we’ll save time."

Stone was somewhat reluctant to go; his sister would probably return to Ji City in a few days, and he didn’t want to be separated from her. He glanced at Lu Yichen, "Brother, you go buy the groceries, let sister come with me to buy pencils."

It was like Gu Qianru had caught a chill as she leaned against a tree, shaking uncontrollably.

Luo Qiao noticed something was off and asked quickly, "Auntie, what’s wrong with you?"

Gu Qianru hurriedly tried to control her expression, but it wasn’t something she could easily hide; she strained so hard to hold it in that her face almost distorted before she managed to suppress it, then she quickly looked down, saying she had something in her eye.

Once composed, Gu Qianru turned to Stone and said, "Your brother, being a man, doesn’t know what’s good to eat. Didn’t you say the other day that the braised ribs were good? Have them go and come back quickly. I’ll cook for you tonight. It might be too late to buy any later on."

After much persuasion, Stone finally agreed. Gu Qianru waved them off and walked with Stone towards the supply and marketing cooperative nearby.

After Stone was pulled away, Lu Yichen pulled Luo Qiao into a doorway at a turn, "When did you come back?"

He wanted to embrace her but with people coming and going, he didn’t want to attract gossip about Luo Qiao and spoil her reputation.

Luo Qiao replied, "I got back yesterday afternoon."

Lu Yichen nearly bored holes into Luo Qiao with his gaze, "Then why didn’t you call me?"

Luo Qiao smiled and said, "I wanted to surprise you guys. Don’t you like it?"

Lu Yichen couldn’t say he disliked it and coughed lightly, "Like it, my heart nearly jumped out, you naughty girl."

He immediately asked, "How long can you stay in Capital City?"

Luo Qiao saw the anxious look on Lu Yichen and smiled, "I’ll stay for quite a while."

Lu Yichen, somewhat excited, took Luo Qiao’s hand, "Really?"

Luo Qiao didn’t want to hide it from him any longer, "Alright, let’s walk and talk, or we might really miss out on the ribs."

Lu Yichen glanced at the sky, and as they walked out of the archway, he asked, "What are your plans for the next few days?"

He knew that she wouldn’t stay without reason, there must be something up.

He then heard Luo Qiao saying, "I enrolled in a driving school today, and I’ll be spending my time learning there."
