Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 1269 Sorry, Lilly

Lilly opened the front door. The cold outside was a harsh contrast to the warmth within the

house.

The blizzard grew heavier. It was hard to even walk now.

Tears welled up in Lilly’s eyes. “Uncle Cloud…” she called out softly.

“Uncle Cloud, why are you hiding here? Are you planning to give all of us a surprise? Everyone…. Everyone’s waiting for you.”

As Lilly spoke, tears began to fall. They fell to the ground and made little holes in the show.

Cloud was dressed in his military uniform, but it was covered in mud and blood.

He was trying his best to clean his wounded face, and he put his charred cap into the bag.

Lilly remembered the young man who had eaten buffalo wings. Her uncle looked so mature in the military uniform, but he would not grow older anymore.

“Uncle Cloud!” Lilly was sobbing. As much as she tried, she could not stop her voice from shaking.
