AFTER claiming their luggage, the Luo family went to the departure terminal where they would be waiting for the person who would pick them up.
"Your Uncle Chen said that the driver he sent is already waiting for us at the terminal," Luo Wei Tian said, putting back his phone in the pocket of the pants he’s wearing.
When they reached their destination, a familiar voice called out to them.
"Uncle Tian!"
Luo Yan turned to the direction where the voice came from.He saw a tall young man waving at them.His black hair was a bit messy.His pair of black eyes were bright and full of cheeriness.His whole body was exuding this untamed energy, showing that he’s not the type of person who could sit still for long hours.
And he looked exactly like the lion beastkin of their team.The notable difference was the color of his hair and eyes, the absence of lion ears and tail, and slightly less muscular body.But if one ignored all of those, then the two were almost one and the same.
This young man was no doubt Bai Ze.
"Ah Ze has sure grown into a fine young man," Luo Wei Tian commented when they walked near him.
Bai Ze laughed and scratched his nose."Well, my father will surely beat me up if I didn’t."He turned to Luo Ren and greeted him."Brother Ren."
Luo Ren nodded to him."Ah Ze."
Then he turned next to Luo Jin.He almost laughed again.Not to hide his embarrassment like earlier, but more because of amus.e.m.e.nt.The Luo Jin standing before him was tall and already very manly for his age.It was so far off from his game avatar in Arcadia.Like complete polar opposites.But he still wore that perpetual annoyed expression on his face.In his game avatar, it looked cute.But here, in reality, he just looked like a pissed off teenager.
"Xiao Jin definitely looked more grown," he said.This kid had probably grown even taller since the last time they met.Which was just last year.
Luo Jin only snorted.
After that Bai Ze turned to the last member of the Luo family.And he almost became speechless.The teenage boy in front of him only reached his shoulder.He had silky black hair.His pair of big peach blossom eyes were staring up at him with curiosity.Every time he blinked, his long eyelashes fanned his cheeks.His skin was as white as clear porcelain.He was simply a beauty
"Xiao Yan?"
He already knew that Luo Yan was a beauty based on the appearance of his game avatar.But he didn’t expect him to be much more charming in reality.
Luo Yan smiled."Brother Ze."
Bai Ze felt like his heart was suddenly struck with an arrow.How cute!How adorable!"Xiao Yan!"
He was about to lunge on him, but his back collar was suddenly gripped and he was forcefully pulled back.He looked back and saw his older cousin smiling gently at him.
"Ah Ze, what are you doing?" Luo Ren asked.
"N-nothing," Bai Ze said.
Because he felt like if he said that he planned to hug Luo Yan, this older cousin would probably not allow him to get close to Luo Yan for the duration of their visit.
Luo Ren seemed to be satisfied with his answer because he finally let go of his collar.He even patted his shoulder.
"Why is Ah Ze the one picking us up?" Luo Wei Tian asked.
"I volunteered," Bai Ze said, grinning."Shall we go?Mom prepared a scrumptious lunch for you."
His mother had always been busy this time of the year.Mostly because of the visit of the Luo family.She always made sure that their Mid-Autumn Festival dinner would be good.That’s why during this time every year, the dishes on their family’s table were the best.
Sometimes, Bai Ze even wished that it’s always Mid-Autumn Festival.So his mother would at least make an effort in cooking.
"I can’t wait to eat Aunt Xiulan’s food," Luo Ren commented.
"Me too," Luo Yan seconded.
"Then I think we should go," Luo Wei Tian said.
Luo Yan looked out of the window from the back of the black BMW SUV they were riding.The city outside seemed to be the same as it was seven years ago.But at the same time, it seemed totally different.The high-rise buildings, the constant traffic, the busy flow of people – those were probably the things that didn’t change.
He’s back in this city he spent four years of his last life in.But he couldn’t feel anything.He thought he would feel sad or even bitter.But no, all he could feel was peace.Probably because he already completely accepted his new life.
He glanced at his father and older brothers.And this acceptance was all because of these three – his new family.
Luo Yan actually wanted to go visit T University before they returned back to S City. Because he wanted to check what happened after he died.Since he didn’t have any family, the school was the closest place she could look for information.Since the accident with that blasted potted plant happened inside the university grounds, surely they had information on what happened after.
He just wondered if his father would agree to it.Well, if not, then he’d just do his best to convince him.He’s very good at that.
They soon entered a private villa community.One could immediately tell that only the rich could afford living here.
Bai Ze slowed down the SUV and took a left turn to enter the driveway of a villa.Luo Yan could tell that the villa occupied quite a large area of land.When Bai Ze parked the vehicle, everyone started to go down.
They were just about to walk towards the house, when a child’s voice suddenly called out to them or rather, to Bai Ze.
"Brother!"
Luo Yan glanced to the left and saw a five, six-year-old child running towards them.His black hair was messy.There was mud on his face and clothes, a sign that he’s probably been playing on the ground or something.His features were soft and gentle.His big black eyes almost looked like it was shining.
This was probably the little cousin – Bai Ye. contemporary romance
When he was near them, he suddenly tripped and fell down.He sat up quickly but his big black eyes immediately became watery, as if he would burst into tears any second.
Because Luo Yan was the closest to the kid, he crouched down in front of Bai Ye.Then he reached out his hand and gently wiped his cheek."Are you alright?"
Bai Ye just stared at him.And then his whole face just turned red.
