After being murdered by my whole family, I was reborn

Chapter 2010 He fell for it

Upon seeing the smoke and hearing the explanation, Luo Laowu's anger vanished, replaced by a fake smile.

He picked up the cigarette pack, took out a cigarette, pulled out a lighter from his pocket, lit it, puffed out a few puffs, and praised, "Your cigarette is pretty good, it's strong enough."

The driver glanced at him again through the rearview mirror. "This cigarette was a gift from my friend. It's too strong; I don't like it. You can have it if you like."

"Thank you very much then." Luo Laowu skillfully stuffed the cigarette pack into his pocket, his smile widening as he chatted with the driver, addressing him as if they were brothers, as if he wanted to become sworn brothers on the spot.

After taking a long detour, the driver successfully drove the car to the station entrance and stopped it.

Luo Laowu didn't get out of the car immediately. After paying the fare, his eyes were greedily fixed on a pack of cigarettes on the passenger seat, which was exactly the same as the pack he smoked in his pocket. He grinned and asked, "Brother, since you don't like this kind of cigarette anyway, why don't you give me the whole pack?" Before the driver could agree, he tentatively reached out to the passenger seat and grabbed the already opened pack of cigarettes.

The driver frowned, displeased: "This pack of cigarettes was a gift from a friend, and I owe him a favor that I need to repay."

"I understand, I understand." Luo Laowu took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and threw it down. "I'll take these cigarettes!" He opened the car door and ran into the station.

He knew very well that such good cigarettes could only buy three packs at most for a hundred yuan, and definitely not a whole carton. Now he could get them for only a hundred yuan, which was a great deal!

Sure enough, the driver's curses came from behind, and he ran even faster!

The station was bustling with people. Noticing the strange looks he was getting, the driver turned back to his car, his anger vanishing instantly. He pulled out his phone and made a call: "He's been infected..."

As he sat on the bus home, Luo Laowu smugly smoked a cigarette, completely unaware that he had already stepped into the grave of death.

The class reunion was held at a well-known hotel in the county town. Zhang Ran arrived a day early, checked into the hotel, and chatted with Fu Qin on the phone while lying in bed.

"What hotel are you staying at? Come stay at my place!"

"I'm too lazy to run around..."

The two chatted for a while, and Zhang Ran made an excuse to hang up the phone; otherwise, Fu Qin could have talked for hours.

The class reunion was scheduled for lunch. After getting up, Zhang Ran took Dong Chan for a stroll around the county town. She hadn't had a proper shopping trip in a very long time, as she had only passed through the town briefly on her way back.

The county town has changed a lot; many old town areas have been demolished and replaced by high-rise buildings.

Although the old station wasn't demolished, it was turned into a temporary stop for buses. The new station was far from the city center and closer to the suburbs, so Zhang Ran didn't go to see it because it was quite a walk.

The once bustling pedestrian street has lost its foot traffic and has been replaced by a new pedestrian street.

Everything felt both familiar and strange, and the flow of people was much greater than before, with people coming and going everywhere.

In an effort to give their children a head start in life, many newlyweds buy houses in county towns, driving up property prices year after year. This influx of people into cities has led to a decline in rural areas, with many houses becoming empty and the population dwindling.

After walking around for a while, it was almost noon. Just as we were returning to the hotel for the gathering, Fu Qin called.

"Xiaoyue, where are you? I've arrived, but I can't find you."

"I haven't been to the county town in a long time. I looked around and we've arrived at the hotel."

"Then I'll come out to meet you."

Zhang Ran hung up the phone, walked through the hotel lobby to the second floor, and saw Fu Qin waiting beside her. She quickened her pace and walked over.
