Chapter 1105: 1105
The car moved slowly along the streets .
Qiao Lian turned to look out of the window .
For the eight years that she had been away, there had been rapid changes .
Hence the places she used to know had become strange, although still familiar .
Lu Nanze did not say where he was taking her, neither did she ask . She made a note of where they were and tried to relate it to the Suzhou she remembered, so that she had an idea of where they were headed .
If she felt something amiss, she would call Shen Liangchuan or send him a message, so that he could come and rescue her .
After the car went around a curve and Qiao Lian saw the spicy soup stall, her body stiffened at once .
Upon noticing this, Lu Nanze asked, “What’s the matter? Do you remember something?”
Qiao Lian quickly said, “No, I just find this place familiar . ”
It was certainly familiar, because beyond the stall, just straight ahead, was a high school .
When she saw the signboard, she was stunned .
This was her high school .
As this thought came to her, Lu Nanze drove the car up to the school entrance and parked by the kerbside . He opened the car door and looked at her . “This is where we went to school . I’ve brought you here to walk down the memory lane . ”
Qiao Lian nodded .
She followed Lu Nanze as he entered the school grounds .
It felt like nothing in the school had changed . Except that where there used to be an empty piece of land, there were now a few blocks of hostels .
There were lessons at the moment, so pleasant sounds of students reading could be heard coming from some of the classrooms .
Qiao Lian found herself slightly distracted as she listened to the voices in unison . It felt like she was back in high school .
She heard Lu Nanze reminiscing, “Qiao Lian, do you remember? Our small group used to sit together . ”
“You sat in the centre, I sat behind you and Sun Linan sat next to you on the same desk . ”
“At the time, we did well in school and were a loud bunch . Do you remember? We had to go to extracurricular sessions in the evenings, so all of us stayed in the hostel . It was the first time we stayed away from our parents and we felt so much freedom . But what we hadn’t expected was that it would be even stricter in school . We used to be able to go out and have fun after school, but when we started staying at the hostel, we couldn’t even step out of campus . ”
“Back then, you had a particular favorite cartoon that was released weekly . You had to watch it every Tuesday night . Hence, on that particular Tuesday night you had asked us to go to the internet cafe to pull an all-nighter . ”
“All of us walked out of the school gate boldly, except you . You jumped out of your hostel room window on the second floor . ”
As Lu Nanze spoke of this incident, they arrived at the hostel building where she had used to stay .
He pointed up at a window on the second floor and said slowly, “You see that? That was your hostel room . I still remember when Sun Tzi and I were waiting for you downstairs, and we heard some movements . We looked up and saw you jumping out . At that moment my heart jumped into my throat, fearful that you’d fall . Later on, seeing that you were alive and kicking, standing there before me, I was so mad at you . ”
“Why were you so careless with yourself? Did you know how dangerous we thought it was as we saw you jump?”
As Lu Nanze droned on, Qiao Lian fell into a daze .
