"Alright, then I'll sing another one for you, listen closely..." Kang Li cleared her throat and began to sing again, "The waters of Honghu Lake, waves upon waves, the banks of Honghu are my hometown, with each year stronger than the last..."
Unbeknownst to them, or who started it, they all started singing along with Kang Li.
The group returned home in high spirits.
After breakfast, Kang Li whispered something to Luo Yanqing, and then, the two of them slipped out of the house unnoticed.
"Let me take it."
Luo Yanqing, his voice laced with indulgence and helplessness, reached out to take the basket from Kang Li's hand, "Really not going to say anything to your family?"
"My dad saw it."
Kang Li curled her lips, "By now, my mom probably knows too. Since she didn't come after us, it means she agreed to let me go up the mountain."
"Aren't you worried about the danger?" Luo Yanqing's eyes twinkled with mirth, "I am quite powerless, you know."
