Zuo Yi didn't expect The Fool to leave so decisively.
He thought that The Fool would stay here for at least one night.
But as a father, Zuo Yi could understand The Fool's thoughts and feelings — because of reluctance, so he was resolute!
He finished the cigarette in his hand and returned to the room.
Gu Yunxi was accompanying Alice in the bedroom. When she saw Zuo Yi coming back, she said, "Let's take Alice out to eat something. She ate dinner on the plane. I'm afraid she's not full yet."
Although the time spent with Alice was very short, Gu Yunxi had already fallen in love with this beautiful and sensible girl. She knew that Alice's parents had passed away long ago, so she felt sorry for her.
Thinking about Bao 'er, she had followed Chen Wan for a few years and didn't have the company of her parents.
Alice's background was undoubtedly more unfortunate than hers.
Gu Yunxi looked at her with a hint of motherly radiance in her eyes.
Merry Christmas to everyone!!!
"No need, no need."
Alice quickly waved her hand and said, "I'm still very …"
But before she finished her words, her stomach involuntarily made a "grumbling" sound.
The little girl's face suddenly turned red.
She was at the age where she was growing and she was a strengthening-type Extraordinaire. She usually needed to eat more nutrients than ordinary people. The food she ate on the plane had already been digested.
Gu Yunxi held her hand and smiled, "Let's go. We'll find a restaurant next to the hotel. We won't disturb your rest."
Ai Lijie felt Gu Yun Xi's love and concern for her. She blinked her eyes and her blue eyes were covered with a thin layer of mist.
After leaving the bedroom, Gu Yunxi didn't see Weston Ryan. She asked doubtfully, "Where's Alice's uncle?"
Zuo Yi replied, "He has left."
"Ah?"
Gu Yunxi said in surprise, "He left so soon?"
She, who didn't know the truth, couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied with The Fool — how could there be such an irresponsible uncle!
"It's okay."
Alice hurriedly said, "My uncle is very busy with work. He already told me when he came here."
"But he didn't have to be in such a hurry."
Gu Yun Xi frowned and asked, "He usually takes care of you like this?"
In Alice's memories, her uncle was very busy with work and had very little time to accompany her, especially after she was seven years old. He had been studying in a boarding school and would visit her once or twice a month.
During the winter and summer vacations, she lived in a small manor in the suburbs of Fran. An old butler was in charge of taking care of her, so she didn't see Weston Ryan many times either.
"But Uncle loves me very much."
Alice didn't complain at all. Instead, she was filled with gratitude. "He taught me a lot of things. He taught me how to be strong and independent. When I'm bored, I can log in and play online."
The little girl said and revealed a big smile, but it made Gu Yun Xi feel a trace of sadness.
"Just treat us as your family in the future …"
"No matter what it is, you can tell us. There's no need to hide it in your heart."
"Yes."
Alice felt that Gu Yun Xi's hand that was holding her was very warm. It warmed her heart.
The hotel that Zuo Yi booked for her was located in the West Lake Scenic Area. This was the essence of Hangzhou. All kinds of commercial facilities were very complete. Although it was already 9 pm, there were still many restaurants that were still open.
Zuo Yi found an old restaurant near the hotel. Gu Yun Xi ordered a table of delicious dishes in one breath. West Lake Vinegar Fish, Dongpo Pork, Longjing Shrimp, Mrs. Song Fish Soup, Beggar's Chicken, Water Shield Soup, Sweet and Sour Pork, and so on. She ordered a portion of all of them.
It was considered as a welcoming dinner for Alice.
Alice was obviously really hungry. She didn't stand on ceremony and ate heartily. She wanted to try every dish and ate happily.
"It's really delicious!"
Alice said, "Uncle brought me to Fran's Chinatown to eat Chinese food. It's much worse than the dishes here."
Gu Yun Xi smiled and said, "If you like it, eat more."
She then said to Zuo Yi, "I'm not very relieved to let Alice stay in the hotel alone. Why don't you go back first? I'll accompany her at night. You can come and pick us up tomorrow morning."
Zuo Yi nodded, "Okay."
In fact, with Alice's strength and the fact that she was in the Hangzhou area, her safety wouldn't be a problem.
But since Gu Yun Xi said so, Zuo Yi certainly wouldn't have any objection.
This little girl was still very pitiful.
At this moment, both of them didn't notice that Alice, who was next to them, wiped her tears secretly when she lowered her head to eat.
When she raised her head again, there was no sadness in her eyes. There was only joy and happiness.
After eating this supper, Gu Yun Xi brought Alice back to the hotel. Zuo Yi returned to the Linjiang old house.
The next morning, he brought the Bao 'er to the hotel again.
He reunited with Gu Yun Xi and Alice.
"Mother!"
The little girl quickly jumped down from the carriage. She pouted and quickly threw herself into Gu Yun Xi's arms.
Hmph, her mother didn't even accompany her to sleep last night!
Gu Yun Xi rubbed the little girl's head to comfort her. She smiled and said, "Baby, let me introduce you. This is Sister Alice. She just came from Gaul."
The Bao 'er opened her eyes wide and looked at the little sister beside her mother. She hesitated and said, "Hello, sister."
"Hello."
Alice bent down and smiled as she extended her hand, "I'm Alice. Nice to meet you."
What a beautiful little sister!
The Bao 'er tilted her head and put her little hand in Alice's hand, "I'm the left Bao' er. Nice to meet you too!"
Both of them shook hands.
The Bao 'er was five years old and Alice was thirteen years old.
This was the first time they met. It seemed to be a chance encounter, but it was more like a choice of fate.
For a very long time in the future, both of their hands were always held together. Many stories happened because of this.
"Get in the car."
Zuo Yi poked his head out of the car and said, "Let's go to the college."
Driving Gu Yun Xi, the Bao 'er, and Alice, Zuo Yi quickly arrived at Jiangnan Tianqi College.
Gu Yun Xi brought the Bao 'er to class. Zuo Yi accompanied Alice to complete the admission procedures and took a look at her dormitory.
The dormitory of the Tianqi College was all single rooms. The bedroom was connected to a study room, a separate bathroom, and a balcony. The environment was not much worse than the high-end single apartments in the city.
"What do you think?"
Zuo Yi said to Alice, "Tell me if you have any questions."
"It's good here. I like it."
Alice said gratefully, "Teacher, thank you. I will study hard here. Please give me more advice in the future."
Zuo Yi smiled, "En."
