Yan Zhiqing could only close her mouth again.
As the two elders got in the car, Old Madam Yan didn't avoid Deng. She said to Yan Zhiqing directly, "Zhiqing, you're still young. It's impossible for you to be with Zilin. He won't be rude to you for your brother's sake, but don't go too far. Don't make things difficult for your brother. "
"Grandma, what are you talking about? I'm not young anymore!" Yan Zhiqing glanced at Deng, who was driving in front, and felt embarrassed.
Old Madam Yan said that in front of outsiders. She didn't even think about it!
Old Madam Yan knew what Yan Zhiqing was thinking just by looking at her face. However, she had done it on purpose. Yan Zhiqing had repeatedly expressed her goodwill towards Wei Zilin in front of so many people just now. She did not have the slightest bit of restraint that a girl should have. She had completely embarrassed them, so she wanted to let Yan Zhiqing have a taste of this and experience how awkward they were at that time.
Although it was said that there was a layer of separation between a girl and a guy, if the other party obviously didn't like her, it would be annoying if she stuck to him like that.
Wei Zilin couldn't say anything because of Yan Beicheng, but it didn't mean they had to pretend not to know and make things difficult for him.
"No matter what, you're still a student and a child. Don't think about those things all day long," Old Madam Yan said sternly.
Yan Zhiqing wanted to say something, but under Old Madam Yan's stern gaze, she didn't dare to say it.
Lin Chu and Yu Zi didn't leave. They stayed to clean up the house with the old dean.
Even Yan Beicheng and Yan Huaian rolled up their sleeves and stepped on the ladder to take off the ribbons.
After cleaning up, Lin Chu shook Lunar New Year's Eve. Lunar New Year's Eve woke up with a confused look, completely forgetting where he was. He rolled over subconsciously and fell to the ground with a thud. He was stunned from the fall. He looked up at the sofa innocently, as if he didn't understand how he fell.
Then he shook his head and shook off his dog fur, which fluttered in the air.
Lin Chu tied the leash for Lunar New Year's Eve with a smile. Yan Huaian also walked over and picked Yan Ningbai up.
Yan Ningbai's round little face rested on Yan Huaian's shoulder. She opened her sleepy eyes in a half-awake state. Seeing that her friends had left and the living room was clean, it wasn't as messy and lively as before.
"Are we leaving?" Yan Ningbai was still in a daze. She closed her eyes as she spoke and was about to fall asleep again on Yan Huaian's shoulder.
"Okay." Yan Huaian carried him out.
Lin Chu also held New Year's Eve and bade farewell to the old dean and the children before leaving with Yan Beicheng.
The old director took the children with him and was very reluctant to part with them. He walked them all the way to the entrance of the orphanage.
When Yan Ningbai came out, he was more or less awake and was put down by Yan Huaian.
"I'm leaving." Yan Ningbai waved at them.
Mo Jinxi awkwardly clasped his hands behind his back and twisted his fair and soft fingers behind his back. "You … Even if you didn't come, I wouldn't miss you."
Yan Ningbai didn't understand at first. He rolled his eyes and realized what Mo Jinxi was talking about. He grinned and didn't want to argue with Mo Jinxi.
It was obvious that Mo Jinxi was the kind of person that her father had mentioned before. He said he didn't want it, but his body was honest.
"I'll call you when I get home," Yan Ningbai said happily.
Mo Jinxi blushed and looked up at the sky. "Then I'll reluctantly talk to you for one … No, ten … twenty minutes!"
Yan Ningbai blinked and said innocently, "I just wanted to talk to you for a minute."
Mo Jinxi was speechless.
Yu Zi rubbed Yan Ningbai's head when she saw Mo Jinxi's blushing face. His hair had grown long and he had cut it a few times. The old man's grey hair that he dyed during the New Year was long gone. It was now brown.
"Stop teasing Jinxi." Yu Zi chuckled.
Yan Ningbai chuckled and said to Mo Jinxi, "I'm just teasing you. We talked on the phone for half an hour. Ah!"
Mo Jinxi blushed a little and replied awkwardly, "Mm."
"Hurry and take the children back to rest. They're tired after playing around for the whole day." Lin Chu saw that the old dean also looked tired.
It was rare to have such a lively day. The old dean was happy from the bottom of his heart, so he didn't feel tired.
After hearing what Lin Chu said, he did feel tired, so he didn't refuse.
The children said goodbye to them one after another. They didn't even miss New Year's Eve. They wagged their tails and barked over one by one to say goodbye to them.
When the old dean took the children back, Yan Beicheng and Lin Chu turned around and left. When they got out of the door, they saw a middle-aged woman standing at the door.
It was already the end of April and close to May. It was neither hot nor cold, and the weather was the most pleasant.
But the middle-aged woman standing at the door was dressed very simply. Her clothes seemed to have been worn for many years, and she was wearing a pair of sports shoes of unknown brands. Although it was clean, it was obvious that she lived a difficult life.
She had black hair, but the roots of her hair were three to four centimeters white. It was unusually eye-catching. Her hair was dry and looked like it had no nutrition.
The wrinkles on her dry and dark yellow skin seemed to be deep-rooted. Even when she wasn't smiling, it was obvious. It was like dry land, so people couldn't tell her real age. Just by looking at her, she looked like she was in her fifties or sixties.
When they came out, the middle-aged woman was looking at the orphanage.
Lin Chu looked over strangely, and the woman immediately retracted her gaze. Her movements were a little timid, and she hurriedly lowered her head, pretending to look elsewhere.
But this reaction was even more suspicious. Not only Lin Chu, but even Yan Beicheng and Yan Huaian looked over.
Two men with similar faces and unparalleled auras looked at her at the same time. Their expressions were serious, which scared the middle-aged woman so much that her face turned pale. She subconsciously took two steps back and looked at them in bewilderment. Then, she immediately looked away.
Lin Chu frowned and looked at the middle-aged woman. He remembered that she was looking at the orphanage just now, so he asked, "Are you looking for someone or —"
The middle-aged woman shook her head forcefully, but she hesitated for half a second and nodded again.
"Miss, are you … familiar with the people in the orphanage?" the middle-aged woman asked timidly.
Lin Chu nodded. He was sure that the other party was coming for the orphanage.
"I …" The middle-aged woman wanted to say something, but she immediately shook her head. "Nothing, sorry to disturb you."
After saying that, the middle-aged woman turned around and fled.
"Please wait!" Lin Chu called out, but the other party ran even faster and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Yan Beicheng frowned slightly. He retracted his gaze and saw Lin Chu looking down and deep in thought.
"What's wrong?" Yan Beicheng lowered his head and asked, holding Lin Chu's hand.
On New Year's Eve, she lowered her head and walked around to sniff, twisting the lead rope into sections. Then, under a tree, she squatted down and peed on a small patch of yellow grass that poked out pitifully on the bare soil. Then, she stood up and lowered her head to smell for a long time, remembering the smell of this place. Satisfied, she sat on the ground and stuck out her tongue, valiantly acting like she was a queen.
"No, I just felt that the person just now looked a little familiar," Lin Chu said.
Yan Beicheng turned his head and looked in the direction that the middle-aged woman disappeared in. But she was already gone, and they were strangers that he didn't even know her name, so he couldn't find out even if he wanted to.
"Big Nephew, Big Nephew's wife, let's go!" Yan Ningbai's voice sounded, making them look over.
They saw Yan Ningbai holding Yu Zi's hand and waving at them passionately.
Yan Beicheng looked at him coldly, but Yan Ningbai didn't mind. He said goodbye to Lin Chu passionately, then lowered his head and said to New Year's Eve, "New Year's Eve, I'll go see you another day!"
New Year's Eve: "Woof!"
Yan Ningbai got in the car, and so did Lin Chu and Yan Beicheng.
After driving for a while, when they reached a red light, Lin Chu grabbed Yan Beicheng's arm and said, "I remember why that person looked familiar."
She remembered when Yan Beicheng was driving, but she was afraid that she would scare Yan Beicheng and cause an accident. She waited until the red light with much difficulty, but she couldn't wait any longer.
This was the first time she looked forward to a red light so much.
Seeing Yan Beicheng look over, Lin Chu immediately said, "On New Year's Eve, didn't you notice New Year's Eve? I took it to see a doctor, and when I came back, I met that person at the entrance of the orphanage. It was just that it was dark, and it was winter, so I didn't recognize him. I kept thinking that the voice sounded really familiar, so I remembered it based on the voice. "
