Chapter 64 - The Strange Big Sister had disappeared for 823 days; he had been counting each and every single day. (1)

Lu Jue was only up to her chest area last time she was here but he was now an adolescent boy that was taller than her.

Ning Zhi found that fascinating. She was watching her husband grew up!

“Do you still remember me, Lu Jue?” Ning Zhi asked tentatively.

It had just been a few days since she had last saw little Lu Jue but it had been years for him.

The adolescence Lu Jue looked up at her and said nothing. He even pulled his hand out from Ning Zhi’s hand.

Ning Zhi was taken aback a little. Little Lu Jue had forgotten about her?

She felt a little disappointed. “Why are you here? Where’s the chauffeur?”

Those with autism like watching things that spin. Tires that spin quickly on the road attract their attention a lot. On top of that, they don’t know to avoid the cars. It is very dangerous to have them alone on the street.

Ning Zhi frowned. “Did you mother know that you are out here on your own?”

Lu Jue pinched his lips shut for a little while before he said, “823.”

He was an adolescent right now. He voice was hoarse, very different from his deep voice in his adult life.

“What 823?” Ning Zhi didn’t understand what he was trying to say.

Lu Jue’s eyes were half lowered. His long and upright lashes fluttered a little. His skin was cold and light-colored. His still-childish eyes and bows frowned a little. He looked discontented and a little aggrieved.

He looked pitiful, almost.

Ning Zhi felt that her heart had been poked by his finger tipped and it was all softened.

She lightened up her voice and asked again. “Can you tell me what is the meaning of 823?”

“823 days,” said Lu Jue as he looked up at her with his black and serene eyes.

Ning Zhi didn’t understand what he was trying to say right away.

Lu Jue lowered his eyes again and ignored her.

Still baffled, she asked him, “Lu Jue, how long have you been out? Did you come out on your own?” Mother Lu wouldn’t have left Lu Jue left by himself.

“Myself.” Lu Jue’s adolescence voice was dull.

As though aware that his voice was odd and not pleasing to the ears, he quickly shut his mouth after he finished talking.

He came out on his own?

Ning Zhi frowned. “Let me take you home. I’m sorry they are worried about you.”

Lu Jue said nothing nor did he decline her.

She had no idea how long Lu Jue had been out. The sun was beating down and Ning Zhi could see that Lu Jue’s lips were very dry.

“Are you thirsty? Let me go get you some water?” Ning Zhi suddenly recalled that she had no money on her. “Do you have money on you?”

Lu Jue blinked and pulled money out of the pocket on his pants.

Ning Zhi didn’t take the money from him but she brought him in the direction of the park in front of them.

Lu Jue could see her so her appearing would not make any difference to him but the other pedestrians on the road would be startled when a person suddenly appearing out of nowhere.

There weren’t a lot of people in the park. Ning Zhi spent 10 little suns in exchange of appearing for 10 minutes.

The second that she appeared, Ning Zhi could feel the heat around her and how strong the sun was.

That was incredible. Ning Zhi found the effect of the little suns incredulous.

And Lu Jue, the source of the little suns…… Ning Zhi gave him a look. He was still silly and cute.

Ning Zhi’s lips too were dry from the heat. Holding Lu Jue’s hand, she said, “Let’s go.”

She brought him to where they sell water.

It was the middle of summer and the entire city felt like a steamer. They had only been walking for a little while and Ning Zhi had started sweating already.

There was a little supermarket next to the park and Ning Zhi walked there with Lu Jue.

She bought two bottles of water.

The boss lady who was munching on melon seeds were surprised by the beauty of the girl. She had no idea how it happened but the girl had a delicate face, her eyes large and limpid and her lips red like she had lipstick on. Even her skin was light like milk.

She didn’t know how to describe the girl but she felt that the girl in front of her was prettier than the stars on television with heavy makeup.
