The lights on the steps have been a bit dim, and college students who ended their night examine handed by.

“Let’s go.” Lu Xi stated, turning round and taking place the steps.

“Watch out.”

Together with {the teenager}’s pressing phrases, the dashing automobile ran over some impediment and shook.

Zhou Sisi’s higher physique bent ahead, brow flippantly hit on the again of Lu Xi, and her hand reflexively touched his waist.
