Sister Zhao wasn't home, so it was just the three of them.
He Ziqian and Tangtang were playing in the living room. Lü Bijun went to wash some clothes. When she came out, she saw the father and daughter building blocks. She just watched them, a little lost in thought, until He Ziqian turned to look at her.
Lü Bijun's gaze flickered. "Are you staying for lunch?"
He Ziqian nodded.
Lü Bijun said, "I'll go out to buy groceries then."
He Ziqian glanced at his daughter and said, "Let's go together. We can take her out for a bit while we're at it."
Lü Bijun nodded.
He Ziqian carried Tangtang, and Lü Bijun walked behind them as they left the residential complex.
They arrived at the nearest fresh food market.
Lü Bijun browsed as she walked, buying a fish, some baby bok choy, and half a block of tofu.
"Lü Bijun, is that really you?"
A man walked up from behind, also carrying some groceries in his hand.
"You come here to shop for groceries too?"
Lü Bijun nodded at him. "Mr. Liu."
