Mo Jinxi stood up straight and almost saluted to Chief Mo. "Grandpa, I don't dye my hair!"
Yan Ningbai was stunned. How could you abandon your friend like this?
Even if he had to swear to be a good child, he had to … he had to bring him along!
Chief Mo nodded in satisfaction. His stern eyes slowly drifted to the side to look at Yan Ningbai.
Yan Ningbai immediately raised his voice and said, "I don't dye my hair either. I was just joking!"
Chief Mo nodded in satisfaction and waved at Mo Jinxi. "Come."
Mo Jinxi had just been scolded. Now that he saw that Chief Mo's expression was gentle and didn't look like he was going to scold him, he mustered up his courage and walked over.
Mo Jinxi felt that interacting with Chief Mo for a long time had really helped him become more courageous.
He saw Chief Mo take out a box from his bag. There was a picture of a phone printed on it.
It wasn't the kind for adults but a child's phone.
"Jixia Academy is different from your previous school. There are no public telephones there, so if you need to call someone, you can only use a phone. This is for you. If you need to call home, use this. Jixia Academy doesn't restrict students from using phones, but you can't use it in class," Chief Mo said. The corners of his mouth twitched as he wasn't used to it. "This is a gift for you on your first day of school transfer."
Mo Jinxi took the phone in surprise. He didn't expect his stern grandfather to be so thoughtful. "Thank you, Grandpa."
"I'll wait for you at the school gate tomorrow morning. Let's go together." Yan Ningbai said, patting his chest. "Don't worry. With me around, no one in school can bully you. Our classmates are all good. There are three in our grade who aren't so good. Just ignore them. But they won't dare to provoke you. "
Although Yan Ningbai usually looked sweet and didn't care about the background of her companions, she was very clear about things like social class.
He knew that even the school bullies didn't dare to provoke him in school. No one dared to say anything sarcastic to him, not because of his martial arts skills, but because of the Yan family behind him. He even admitted that he was slightly fat.
Yes, Yan Ningbai only admitted that he was slightly fat.
There was a child from a small family in another class who had a similar build as him, but he was called Fatty all the time. However, no one dared to call him that.
Hence, Yan Ningbai knew very well that no matter what Mo Jinxi had been like in the past, nobody would make things difficult for him in school as long as he had the Mo family behind him.
With everyone's encouragement and Yan Ningbai's comfort, Mo Jinxi felt much more at ease. He had arranged to meet Yan Ningbai at the school gate the next morning, and they would enter class together.
Actually, Mo Jinxi didn't have to be nervous at all. Jixia Academy had much more restrictions on the teaching staff than ordinary schools. Since the homeroom teacher knew his identity and he was a new student, he naturally had to pay extra attention to him.
Yan Beicheng and Yan Huaian left with their wives and Yan Ningbai. Before leaving, Liang Wenyin asked them to wait for a while and went to the bedroom.
When he came out, he had two framed paintings in his hands. He gave them to Yan Huaian and Yan Beicheng.
"This is what I drew. It's worth a bit of money in the market. It's our first time meeting, and I don't know what to give you, so I thought of giving you my paintings. There are also a few tickets to my art exhibition inside. If you're free, you can go. If you're not free, you can give them to someone else. "Liang Wenyin smiled at Lin Chu and Yu Zi." It's not convenient for you to go, so it's good to give them to a client. Oh right, Lin Chu, when you give birth, I'll draw a family portrait for you. "
Lin Chu happily accepted it and thanked Liang Wenyin. Lin Chu and Yu Zi quite liked Liang Wenyin's elegance as an artist, but she didn't lose her ground. Some women were too pretentious, and it was inevitable that the same sex repelled each other.
Moreover, Yan Huaian and Yan Beicheng were very popular with women, so Yu Zi and Lin Chu had to be more careful with women. Slowly, they became more and more observant. For those who were pretentious, it was inevitable that the same sex repelled each other.
Towards Liang Wenyin, the two of them didn't have this kind of feeling. Although they might not necessarily be on the same page, it was related to the environment and hobbies they came into contact with. Liang Wenyin was also an artist, and the things she was involved in were always different from them, but they didn't reject her.
In the car, Yan Beicheng kept looking at Lin Chu's face as he drove. At this time, the traffic was very bad. Along the way, the car stopped and stopped, and most of the time, it stopped and didn't move. Therefore, Lin Chu wasn't worried about Yan Beicheng being distracted.
It was just that after a long time, he felt that it was strange to be stared at by him in silence.
Seeing that Yan Beicheng seemed to have something to say to him, Lin Chu wanted to wait for him to take the initiative to speak. However, after waiting for half the journey, he didn't see Yan Beicheng speak.
Lin Chu couldn't help but take the initiative to ask, "Do you have something to say to me?"
Yan Beicheng opened his mouth, but asked, "You don't have anything to ask me?"
Lin Chu was stunned for a moment. He was still very strange. What could he ask him? There was nothing much.
Lin Chu carefully sized up Yan Beicheng's face. Originally, there was nothing wrong, but with Lin Chu looking at him like this, he felt a little scared.
When Lin Chu saw this, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly. "What are you feeling guilty about?"
"…" Yan Beicheng took a deep breath. "What can I feel guilty about? With you staring at me without blinking, it would be strange if I could stay calm."
Lin Chu pursed his lips. He just said it casually. He didn't really suspect him.
After a while, he heard Yan Beicheng cough. "I was waiting for you to ask me about Liang Wenyin."
Lin Chu had forgotten about this matter. It wasn't that he didn't care, but his woman's intuition told him that Liang Wenyin didn't like Yan Beicheng. It was just that she simply met her childhood friend.
Lin Chu felt that he still had this bit of insight. Women's insight in this aspect was always surprisingly sharp, and it was something that men couldn't think of.
If it was a woman who coveted her man, no matter how well she hid it, she would still be able to detect it.
Therefore, after a long time, Lin Chu had forgotten about the topic he had interrupted previously.
Now that Yan Beicheng reminded him, he remembered and asked, "Oh right, how did you meet her when you were young?"
Yan Beicheng then explained, "Grandma also told you that when I was young, I often suffered at Jiang Changdai's place. At that time, it wasn't like now. I didn't care anymore. At that time, I still had hope for her. Therefore, I couldn't help but hide and be sad. Once, I was sitting on a bench in the neighborhood, feeling unhappy, and I met Liang Wenyin. At that time, she told me that if I was unhappy, I could just eat a piece of chocolate. It was because of this sentence that I remembered. "
"At that time, she was very young and chubby, about the same size as Ning Bai. After slowly getting to know her, I gave her a nickname, Yue Ban," Yan Beicheng explained.
At first, Lin Chu didn't react much, but when he thought of Liang Wenyin's words, he knew what Yue Ban meant.
"You've really been so scheming since you were young," Lin Chu said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"Later, she left with her family. We actually didn't meet much. But at that time, I was quite grateful to her. She was a kind little girl. At that time, when I was slowly becoming cynical and depressed, she was the person who pulled me back in time. Even though I didn't tell her anything about me, she only knew that I was unhappy. But I think it's because of this that I'm relaxed when she's talking to me like a child. "
After Yan Beicheng finished speaking, he didn't hear Lin Chu's response for a long time. He thought that she was angry and was jealous of her childhood.
He turned to look at her and saw that she had lowered her eyes. There was no light in the car, only the headlights on the front and back of the car and the neon lights by the roadside. Only a faint light shone into the car. The cars drove by on both sides, and from time to time, a wide shadow flashed across her face.
Yan Beicheng was about to speak, but he saw her reach out and place her hand on the back of his hand. The warmth passed from her palm to the back of his hand.
It was cold now, but Yan Beicheng didn't have the habit of wearing gloves. Lin Chu had been supervising him.
In the morning, Lin Chu still stared at him and asked him to wear gloves. In the end, when he got off work, he forgot his gloves in the office and didn't bring them out.
Because of this, on the way to the Mo residence, Lin Chu even scolded him for a long time.
Yan Beicheng wasn't impatient at all because Lin Chu was doing it for his own good. Then, Lin Chu said, "If you don't feel sorry for yourself and your hands turn red from the cold, I feel sorry for you. Even if it's for me, don't always carelessly leave your gloves behind, okay?"
Just because of this sentence, Yan Beicheng couldn't get angry. No matter how long she scolded him, he didn't blush.
At this moment, the air conditioner in the car was on, so it was very warm. After staying in the car for a while, Yan Beicheng's stiff hands slowly warmed up, and his fingers moved more freely. But being covered by Lin Chu's soft palm, it was even more comfortable.
He didn't like wearing gloves, except because it was a habit for many years. He didn't like it since he was young. In the past, Old Madam Yan often complained about this habit of his. But in this aspect, he was very stubborn. In terms of aesthetics, Yan Beicheng was still very wasteful.
He always wore a coat with the front open, regardless of whether it was zipped or buttoned. Wei Zilin had complained about him before, but Yan Beicheng said that it was so cool. His persistence in this aspect was just like how he liked to wear Bullock shoes.
It was the same for gloves. When wearing gloves, Yan Beicheng felt that his palms would sweat, and he didn't like the smell of leather. As for the furry ones when he was young, he felt that they were bulky.
So no matter what Old Madam Yan said, Yan Beicheng just didn't listen.
It was only because he married Lin Chu that he was supervised by Lin Chu every day that he had no choice but to wear them.
The first time he wore gloves back to the old residence in winter, Old Madam Yan saw him and was overjoyed. She kept saying that it was good to have a wife. Finally, there was someone who could control him.
But in fact, other than those two reasons, after getting together with Lin Chu, Yan Beicheng had another reason not to wear gloves. It was because it was uncomfortable to shake hands with Lin Chu while wearing gloves. He couldn't directly feel the softness of Lin Chu's palm. He liked the feeling of holding Lin Chu's hand without any obstruction. Even if it was hot and sweaty, it was the same.
