Chen Cheng returned to the Big Willow Tree first.
Before the car stopped, he saw Su Liya sitting outside Wanbao Hall, under the willow tree.
Her head was lowered, looking at her toes, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothing, as if pondering over something.
The gentle breeze lightly brushed her hair strands but did not disturb her thoughts.
Until Da Lao stopped in front of her, Su Liya had not noticed.
Chen Cheng's hand was on the door handle, looking at her through the car window.
After a moment of hesitation, his thoughts made him open the car door, "Li Ya."
Su Liya suddenly looked up, eyes first flashing with astonishment, then filled with joy.
She stood up, her lips trembling slightly, but she didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Uncle!"
"Get in the car," Chen Cheng shifted a bit to make room.
Su Liya nodded slightly, her movements slightly awkward as she got into the car.
"Back to Zhongchuan," Chen Cheng said.
