Rebirth after the apocalypse: I create a new world with space!
Chapter 1385 Missing
Liu Mengyun stood quietly by, his eyes full of relief and concern.
She raised her hand slightly, gently tidied up Li Luo's messy hair, and said softly:
"Lolo, you've been away for quite some time, you must be exhausted. Just rest at home when you come back, and don't worry about anything else."
As she spoke, she unconsciously straightened her back slightly. Her firm posture and warm words, like the warm sun in winter, showed her inner strength and deep love for Li Luo without reservation.
Tang Mingcheng stood silently not far away, his eyes like super glue, sticking tightly to Li Luo from beginning to end, never moving away for a moment.
The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a gratified smile, his eyes full of doting, and he said softly:
"My daughter, I'm glad you came back safely. You made your dad very worried."
That smile was like a spring breeze blowing across the calm lake, creating layers of gentle ripples.
Li Luo smiled as he looked at his family members who surrounded him, and then, surrounded by them, he slowly walked into the living room like the moon surrounded by stars.
Lu Jingcheng followed quietly behind, his gaze like soft moonlight, always gently falling on Li Luo, never leaving his side.
In the living room, bright lights pour down like a waterfall, like a warm island isolated from the rest of the world in the gray tones of the doomsday.
The light had a slightly warm yellow hue, just like a mother's hand, gently caressing every corner, outlining the contours of the furniture softly and intimately, as if covering them with a layer of warm veil.
Everyone sat together, and the soft texture of the sofa seemed to become more pleasant under the light, as if warmly inviting everyone to fall into its embrace.
Li Qing sat down next to Li Luo intimately, his arm naturally resting on her shoulders, like a warm scarf, giving her endless comfort.
Shi Xinxin was like a lively little sparrow, standing right next to Li Luo on the other side, her face flushed with excitement and her eyes sparkling.
She waved her arms and chattered non-stop, trying to dispel Li Luo's fatigue from the journey:
"Lolo, you don't know that a few days ago, the base held a small cooking competition. The scene was even more lively than a fierce battle! Our Taodou team was really good and even won a prize! Grandpa He led the team and helped us win the third prize. The base was also generous and rewarded our team with a bunch of official supermarket shopping cards. In the future, everyone can save a lot of points when they go shopping!"
As she spoke, she gestured and danced, as if the lively scene was replaying before her eyes.
Liu Mengyun looked at Shi Xinxin with a smile on her face, her eyes full of laughter:
"That's right. There are also children performing after the competition. Those little guys are like little angels descended from heaven. They are so cute."
When talking about children, Li Luo thought of Ning Bao and asked:
"By the way, where's Ning Bao? Why didn't I see him? Is he sleeping?"
Li Qing gently handed the peeled orange to Li Luo's mouth. Li Luo opened his mouth slightly and took a light bite. The orange juice spread in his mouth, sweet and sour.
Li Qing then began to explain:
"Ning Bao was picked up by Yuan Qing early in the morning. As you know, Yuan Qing wants to study Ning Bao's special physique, so he takes him one day every week, and today happens to be that day."
Li Luo nodded slightly, with a hint of longing in his eyes, and said softly:
"I haven't seen that little guy for a long time. I miss him a lot."
At this time, Lu Jingcheng was watching this scene quietly.
The interaction between Li Luo and his family is natural and intimate, and the deep warmth seems to be tangible, flowing slowly in the air.
His heart was filled with mixed feelings, as if being stirred up by an invisible hand, with all kinds of emotions flooding in.
His thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the past, and he thought of his family far away in City B.
Those warm moments spent with his family were like precious movie scenes playing in his mind:
The father's stern yet caring eyes; the mother's gentle and kind smile; and the laughter and playfulness between brothers and sisters, that carefree laughter seems to still echo in my ears.
In the chaos and danger of this doomsday, he had not felt such pure and rich family warmth for a long time.
The feeling of missing her was like a surging tide, spreading wildly in his heart and almost drowning him.
Fortunately, it won't be long before he can see them.
After Li Luo finished talking with his family, Lu Jingcheng took a deep breath, tried to suppress the waves in his heart, and said slowly:
"Uncle Tang, Aunt Qing, Aunt Yun, it's getting late. I'll go back first. I still have some mission preparations to do."
He bowed slightly, with a polite and distant smile on his face, but there was a hint of eagerness in his eyes that was hard to conceal.
His fingers unconsciously bent slightly, as if urging himself to leave quickly, but also as if he was restraining the urge to stay a little longer.
When Li Qing heard this, she jumped up from the sofa like a spring, her eyes wide open, her face full of the intention to keep him, and said:
"Xiao Lu, it's almost noon. Let's have lunch before we go. You and Luo Luo have been busy all morning, so you must not have eaten well."
As she spoke, she took two steps forward, as if trying to hold onto Lu Jingcheng.
Lu Jingcheng bowed slightly, still with a polite smile on his face, shook his head gently, and declined:
"It's okay, Aunt Qing. I'll just go back and have a quick bite with my teammates. The mission is urgent and I really have a lot of things to do. After I'm done with this, I'll definitely have a good meal with everyone."
His tone was firm and sincere, making it impossible to persuade him any further.
Li Qing also knew that her future son-in-law was very busy, so she sighed helplessly and made no more efforts to keep him.
Several elders stood up. Tang Mingcheng frowned slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he did not speak.
They all wanted to see Lu Jingcheng off.
Lu Jingcheng quickly stretched out his hand to stop him, with a bright smile on his face, his eyes narrowed into slits, and said with a smile:
"Uncles and aunts, don't be so polite. Just stay. There's no need to make such a big fuss."
After hearing what he said honestly, the three elders no longer insisted on sending him off.
Li Luo stood up and walked Lu Jingcheng to the door.
Lu Jingcheng looked at her, his eyes full of tenderness and reluctance. He gently raised his hand, wanting to touch Li Luo's face, but stopped in mid-air. Finally, he just whispered:
"Spend time with your family, and we'll discuss the preparations later."
His voice is deep and magnetic, as if it has a magical power that can make people feel at ease.
