Fireworks bloomed outside the window. The light scattered, reflecting his picturesque features.
His slightly curved peach blossom eyes seemed to contain the entire galaxy, deep and charming.
Ying Zijin looked at him for a while, then slowly took out a tissue from her pocket and handed it to him. "… I'm sorry."
Fu Yunshen did not take it.
"It's okay." He bent down and patted her head like last time. His movements were gentle, as if he was teasing a kitten. His lips curved. "I don't mind."
Children were very obedient.
Ying Zijin was in a daze, as if she was thinking about something.
Until a slender hand waved in front of her eyes, then bent a finger and lightly tapped on her forehead.
Above her head, there was a soft chuckle.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Nothing." Ying Zijin came back to her senses, rolled up her sleeves, poured the flour into a bowl, and added some water.
She was just thinking about what to give Fu Yunshen.
A cat or a dog could satisfy his hobby of touching her head.
Otherwise, if this continued, she might really go bald.
After that, the two of them did not chat anymore. One of them boiled water, and the other chopped vegetables.
In the living room, Wen Fengmian was smiling and talking to Wen Tinglan happily.
Ying Zijin's gaze was fixed.
She did not have many memories when she was young. When she could remember, she was already in the Wen family.
Wen Fengmian had to take care of two children and was very busy.
When Wen Tinglan was five years old, he suffered a huge trauma, which made the Wen family even worse.
While she was studying, she would also go out to find some odd jobs. However, the family of three could at most survive and barely fill their stomachs.
It was no wonder that when Family Ying came looking for her, Wen Fengmian advised her to leave, because Family Ying could provide her with better resources.
But from the beginning to the end, Wen Fengmian did not think about her.
Ying Zijin narrowed her eyes.
She would protect them well.
**
Two days later.
The weather was getting warmer, and the sun was shining brightly. The temperature had climbed to 20 degrees Celsius, as if the snow a few days ago was just an illusion.
The girl was wearing a black hoodie and looked casual and lazy. She had one hand in her pocket and the other holding an ice cream cone.
The young man behind her had two cups of milk tea in his hands. He was obviously a little helpless. "Sis, when did you like sweets?"
Ying Zijin finished the ice cream cone in a few bites. "Life is too hard. Eat something sweet."
The food in the 21st century was not bad. Finally, there was some fun.
Wen Tinglan misunderstood her words. After a moment of silence, he asked in a low voice, "Sis, you're not staying with us?"
"Not for the time being." Ying Zijin nodded. "I still have something to deal with. Don't worry."
After dinner that day, she told Wen Fengmian that she wanted to take them to Hucheng. At first, he didn't agree because he was afraid that it would cause her trouble. Later, he agreed.
She used four million yuan to buy an 80-square-meter apartment in Xinhuan. She bought some furniture and settled Wen Fengmian down.
When Wen Fengmian came to Hucheng, Wen Tinglan naturally decided to transfer to Qing Zhi.
He received an invitation from Qing Zhi a long time ago, but he didn't accept it.
As for Family Ying …
Ying Zijin narrowed her eyes.
Her divination ability hadn't recovered, but in terms of divination, everything was about karma.
The karma between her and Family Ying hadn't been completely cut off, so she couldn't leave for the time being.
Moreover, when she was observing the future, she found something important.
It was related to Family Ying, but it was very vague.
Family Ying would be easier to track down.
Wen Tinglan frowned. "But those people …"
He couldn't imagine how much his sister had suffered in Family Ying. Now, she needed to eat sweets to relieve her pain.
"Don't worry." Ying Zijin didn't care. "It's just a small matter."
She was always too lazy to use words when she could use her hands. Talking was much more tiring than fighting.
Wen Tinglan: "…"
He didn't believe it at first.
But just yesterday, he saw with his own eyes that his sister kicked someone who wanted to flirt with her. It was the kind of person who couldn't get up.
The teenager looked down and clenched his fists.
He swore that Family Ying would have its retribution.
"Let's go." The girl bit the straw and drank milk tea. "I'll send you back."
**
Family Ying.
The butler frowned when he saw a few servants carrying a few boxes in from outside the door. He asked, "What's this?"
One of the servants wiped the sweat off his forehead. "It's a delivery for Second Miss."
"A delivery for Second Miss?" The butler frowned even more. "Madam didn't prepare anything for her. What else does she need to buy?"
She would only cause trouble all day long.
"Put it in the courtyard." The butler instructed. "Madam is meeting a guest. She can't be disturbed."
The servants put down the boxes. When the butler went forward and was about to open it, he inadvertently saw a word printed on the box.
It was golden in color and very light.
The butler was stunned. He moved closer to take a closer look, but the sound of footsteps stopped next to him.
In an instant, he was so cold that he shivered.
When he looked up, he froze.
The girl just looked at him with an indifferent gaze.
"Second Miss …" The butler hurriedly retreated. He didn't dare to be disrespectful. "Your, your things are here."
His legs went soft. He couldn't resist the pressure and knelt down directly. He didn't even dare to raise his head. "I, I'm sorry. I didn't ask for your permission …"
Ying Zijin ignored him. She squatted down and opened it with her hands without using scissors.
Fu Yunshen left the next day. Before he left, he said that he had bought some books for her and would send them to Family Ying.
It seemed like this was it.
Before she opened it, Ying Zijin was still very interested.
After she opened it, she saw a box of children's books. "…"
As if he had calculated that she would receive the express delivery at this time, there was a WeChat notification.
[Little kid, did you receive it?]
Before she could reply, another message came from the other side.
[Brother carefully selected these for you. There are books from different countries. They will last you for a long time.]
Ying Zijin pressed her head.
Who wants to read children's books?
She typed these four words expressionlessly.
[I thank you.]
The reply came very quickly.
[You're welcome. Remember to treat Brother to a few more meals.]
Ying Zijin didn't want to reply. She wanted to slap this box of children's books on him.
The servants stood at the side and waited. When they saw the things in the box, they looked at her with contempt.
This adopted Second Miss couldn't be compared to First Miss. It could be seen from the books she read.
First Miss had already read original English books when she was in her first year of high school. She wasn't like Second Miss who was still reading fairy tales.
As expected, she came from a small town. She probably didn't know as many English words as they did.
Ying Zijin closed the box and accepted it. It could be used as a bedtime reading. It could barely calm her nerves.
She didn't ask anyone to help her. She carried the books and walked inside.
"Second Miss, you can't go in now." Seeing this, the butler hurriedly stopped her. "Madam is …"
Before he could finish speaking, the door opened.
On the sofa in the living room, Zhong Manhua was smiling and talking to a guest. She looked very happy.
The sound of the door opening interrupted her next words.
