Chapter 72

While walking and chatting, the road becomes very short, and the time seems to slip very fast.

When we got to the alley of suno's house, it was completely dark.

The street lamps in the alley exude a warm halo, which makes the road very warm.

This is an old street. Although there are not many people walking, each family is close to each other, and it is not remote.

Suno stood at the entrance of the alley and looked inside. He could only say to Gu Chenglan, "that's it. My brother will come out to pick me up in a moment

Although the time is not particularly late, I did not say when I went out.

But as long as suno didn't come back when it was dark, Suyang would come out to have a look at it every once in a while, so as not to walk alone at night when his sister came back.

Gu Chenglan said, "well," but he didn't turn to leave. Instead, he looked at the back street beside the alley.

Most of the street is the back wall of this alley. Only a few families have opened small doors in the back street. There are no street lights. All the lights in the street come from other people's windows.

Suno did not know what Gu Chenglan was looking at, so she turned her head with curiosity.

Unexpectedly, Gu Chenglan suddenly took her arm and walked forward a few steps. Then she came back to her mind. They were already standing in the shadow of a high wall.

Just like the last time she spoke on the street corner, Gu Chenglan faced suno, and her tall figure blocked her in front of her.

"You, I..." Suno lowered his head and bit his lips, nervously not knowing what to say.

"Turn around." Gu Chenglan takes a deep look at suno and turns her back.

In front of suno is the wall of lime soil. Her shyness and carefulness are suddenly a little gray.

Gu Chenglan looks at the back of suno's head, reaches out to smooth her soft and silky hair, gently picks it up and pulls it off.

"I don't know, but I want to try again." Gu Chenglan said, taking out a hairband from his trouser pocket.

Gu Chenglan's movements are clumsy, but carefully. Slender fingers through suno's hair, next gently along, the hair together, one hand hold, the small orange bow hair ring tied in suno's hair.

"Is it a little tight?" Gu Chenglan pinched his hair and asked softly.

"No, no, it's good." Suno shook his hair and felt his scalp was crispy.

Gu Chenglan braided her hair again. How could it be so sweet.

"It's late. Go back." Gu Chenglan turned suno around and looked up and down, only to find that he had not tied up suno's hair well, and a wisp of hair hung mischievously on his forehead.

Gu Chenglan gently picked up the wisp of hair, which was as smooth as a satin to slip away from her fingers.

Gu Chenglan smoothed the wisp of hair behind suno's ears. His lips moved, but he didn't say anything.

It's too early. She's too young. It's better to wait. It's not time.

Suno looked up at Gu Chenglan. Suddenly he saw a deep meaning in his eyes, and his face turned red.

"Gu Chenglan, come on." Suno raised a small fist and said, "we'll see you in North China."

"Good." Gu Chenglan stretched out his big hand, clenched it into a firm fist, and gently bumped into suno's small fist. Like a silent agreement.

Suno walked into the alley and looked back at Gu Chenglan. He is always like this, every time he has to watch himself enter the door, or see Su Yang come to pick up before leaving.
