Runaway Grandma by Yu Qie

  Li Yuzhu's gentle and calm demeanor formed a stark contrast with Su San's uncontrollable anger. On the other side, An Yan's sensitive nature picked up on the strange atmosphere between the two men. However, she had always been unwilling to make assumptions about people's hearts. Especially when it came to Li Yuzhu, a man as elegant and refined as jade and bamboo, she found it hard to associate him with someone who was cunning and had designs on a married woman. Yet, seeing Su San's displeasure, her heart couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. After all the time they had spent together, Su San had become an indispensable part of her life. This part was intertwined with her very being, and when he was in pain, she felt it too.

  An Yan's body moved slightly, leaning towards Su San's direction. Regardless of what Li Yuzhu thought in her heart, her attitude remained the same - no matter what happened, she would always stand on Su San's side.

  Seeing An Yan's smile, Li Yuzhu's eyes trembled, and a hint of sorrow flashed across the bottom of her eyes. Although her emotions were surging in her heart, her face didn't show any change. Her expression remained as usual, seemingly unaffected by An Yan's smiling gesture. He just stood there quietly, yet seemed to have gathered countless essences and spirits from heaven and earth.

  Su San's heart was filled with joy at this moment, and he quietly reached out to grasp An Yan's hand in his palm. He held it tightly, as if afraid someone would come over and snatch it away from him. His expression was like that of a child guarding its food. This made An Yan feel both helpless and sweetly touched. She knew that at this moment, she could only go along with Su San; otherwise, he would become stubborn, just like a cow, and might even stand on the street for a whole day without moving.

  An's hand was grasped by Su San, who turned her head to face Li Yuzhu and said, "Don't mind, young master Li, my husband has a somewhat eccentric temperament."

  When he heard the little woman say that she was eccentric, Su San didn't get angry, but instead felt a bit pleased. At this moment, Su San wished he could take out the big hand holding An Yan's small hand and show it off in front of Li Yuzhu. The wheat-colored skin was full of pride at this moment, looking like he had just won the top prize in the imperial examination.

  Li Yuzhu saw Su San's appearance and thought of her own high school days. At that time, she was also very happy. Her heart was filled with joy, and the smile on her face couldn't be hidden. But now, the man in front of her was overjoyed just because he held his wife's hand. She had to admit that the man in front of her had something very pure about him. When he was determined about something, nothing in this world could compare to it. The happiness that seemed small to others was already greater than anything in the world to that man.

  Li Yuzhu was momentarily stunned, her eyes dazed, thinking to herself that if she were standing beside the woman, would she also be able to love like that man, purely and thoroughly. Probably not now. But in the future, it's unknown.

  An Yan looked at Su San's appearance, her heart was extremely sweet. Perhaps the behavior of the man by her side seemed a bit childish and meaningless to others. But in her eyes, it was precious and irreplaceable. Having seen too many people's cold and warm feelings, Su San's sincere love for her made his heart seem unique and one-of-a-kind.

  "Su Gongzi is a person of noble character, why would Jade Bamboo take it seriously?"

  Li Yuzhu lowered her gaze, burying all emotions in her eyes, and spoke with an unchanged tone.

  Su San's eyes dimmed slightly and she calmed down, no longer clinging tightly.

  "It's better not to stand in the middle of the street and talk, otherwise people will come over to watch."

  The charm of the flower boy is absolutely not covered, at this moment there are already several little girls standing in the distance with a handkerchief covering their faces, carefully looking over here.

  Although Su San was not bad, he had a different style of handsomeness, but the aura on his body was really too arrogant, and it wasn't someone ordinary people dared to approach. An Yan suddenly thought in her heart that probably only she had such good eyesight, able to see the bright spots on Su San's body.

  The three of them didn't linger any longer and headed towards the Baicao Hall. The atmosphere did liven up a bit, and Su San stopped interrupting. Because he felt that Li Yuzhu's mood had changed slightly, he thought to himself, could it be that his deep affection for the young woman had deeply stimulated that little white face? So he retreated with difficulty? But thinking about it, with him, Su San, as a comparison, others were weak like a small white radish.

  Indeed, as Su San expected, Li Yuzhu's heart was a bit complicated at this time. He shouldn't have indulged himself in getting closer to An Yan again and again, the consequences of which might be irreparable. Should he continue to stay? Continue to let himself be troubled?

  Arrived at Baicao Hall, An Yan quickly grabbed the medicine and handed it over to Li Yuzhu. He also carefully instructed her again, and Li Yuzhu took note of everything.

  After finishing the handover, An Yan smiled and said: "There's no rush to decoct the medicine, Young Master can sit down and have a cup of tea before hurrying back."

  Su San's eyes flickered, staring unblinkingly at Li Yuzhu. If he dared to respond with a yes, it seemed as if he would dare to go up and chop him down. Li Yuzhu heard the invitation from his heart's desired woman, and suddenly his originally somewhat calm heart became restless. Many times, when analyzing, one can be so calm and rational. However, when things truly happen, they are often irresistible. Even if he clearly knew it was poison, he still found it hard to resist that temptation.

  An Yan's thoughts were simple, she had already made her attitude clear to Li Yuzhu for Su San. What she should do, she did, and the rest was up to the development of things. However, in her heart, she still cherished Li Yuzhu as a friend. Whether it was personality or knowledge, Li Yuzhu and she were extremely compatible. In this strange place, she had almost no friends. There were only relatives who never left her side, and when she was working hard to protect her loved ones, she also hoped to have someone to share her joys and sorrows with. It was just that this was just her one-sided wish. If Li Yuzhu was willing to be her friend, she would be delighted. If not, she wouldn't force it.

  One of Su San's ears seemed to have perked up, facing directly at Li Yuzhu's direction, waiting for his response.

  "Next time, it's getting late today."

  Li Yuzhu thought he would agree, after all, this was what he had been longing for. But the words that came out of his mouth turned into a refusal.

  At this moment, his heart was still rational. Although he liked it, the rest of his heart was still heavier than this excitement.

  When he heard this, An Yan didn't have much of a reaction, but Su San on the other side let out a huge sigh of relief. Unintentionally losing control, this loud sigh of relief sounded especially abrupt and strange in that quiet moment.

  An Yan gave Su San a particularly disgusted glance, the meaning in his eyes extremely clear: wait for me to deal with you when we get back.

  Glared at by his own wife like this, Su San's body suddenly tensed up, instantly becoming straight as a pen, not daring to glance sideways, with an expression that said he had always been perfectly normal.

  Li Yuzhu saw Su San and couldn't help but want to laugh for some reason. But in the end, what came out was only a bitter smile.

  Li Yuzhu didn't stay but bid farewell and left.

  Li Yuzhu left, and the Baicao Hall was immediately left with only Su San and An Yan. Su San secretly shrank his neck, thinking to himself, how could he be so impulsive? This wouldn't do, or else before Xiao Bai Lian had a chance to pry open the wall corner, he would accidentally break down the wall first. Wouldn't that be, not worth it, and unbearable pain?

  At the same time Su San was analyzing the future development of his relationship with Xiao Nu, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his ear and turned to see Xiao Nu furiously pinching his ear.

  Okay, Su San's muscles were not only thick and hard on his body, but even his ears were thicker. So at this moment, the first feeling was not pain, but that the little woman's hand was really soft. Those soft and soft small hands pulled his ears like that, following the little woman's movements, Su San's body leaned towards An Yan's body along with the force. Intentionally or unintentionally, Su San's large body leaned halfway into An Yan's arms.

  She stared blankly at the scene in front of her, just wanting to punish this man a little, pull his ears off. He was good, knowing how to climb up the pole, and even had the heart to take advantage of the situation to eat his own tofu. At this moment, Su San was like a bear without a tail, only missing hanging on himself.

  This man is really shameless, leaving her with no choice but to give in.

  Xia An's words loosened Su San's grip on his ear, and he changed to pushing Su San away.

  Su San leaned against An Yan's soft body, and suddenly felt that all the pores on his body had relaxed, it was really comfortable to the point of wanting to sigh. However, he was smart this time and didn't dare make any strange noises, otherwise, he estimated that he wouldn't have such good treatment later. The little woman's specialty was making him stand with his back to her, which was a double torture for his spirit and body. Thinking of the terrible family law, Su San's head cleared up a bit. He slowly and reluctantly moved his body, so that it wasn't pressing on An Yan's body. However, he was still extremely close to An Yan.

  An Yan looked at Su San with a cooperative expression, which made her both angry and amused. Originally, she wanted to scold him severely and make him behave himself in the future. However, seeing his innocent act, she couldn't help but burst out laughing. This ruined her plan, and it was impossible for her to scold Su San again.

  Su San heard the crisp laughter close at hand, and suddenly he also followed with a silly smile, and habitually made his own signature move, stretching out his hand to scratch his head with a silly grin.

  "Look at you, silly."

  An Yan looked at Su San's signature move with disdain and pouted on the side.

  Su San didn't mind at all and instead smiled and said: "I'm only silly like this when I'm with my wife."

  Yes, he was defeated by this little woman for his entire life. Facing the enemy, he was calm and confident, proud and self-assured. On the battlefield, he was invincible. In Nangong, he was indifferent and aloof, no one could make him take a second glance. Even in Qin Du, he was extremely proud, no one could make him bow his head. When he was dismissed and investigated, he didn't even frown. The glory and wealth of Qin Du, the beauty and charm, were all fleeting clouds in his eyes, leaving no trace. But when facing An Yan, all his strategies and plans collapsed. He rejoiced for her, sorrowed for her, angered for her, and was annoyed for her. For her, he became more and more unlike himself. He was cautious and vigilant, but he felt that this self was the one who was truly alive. This him had blood and flesh, had weaknesses like a normal person. In front of her, he was a little silly and clumsy, what did it matter, as long as he could make her smile, it was enough.

  An Yan looked at Su San's silly and determined face, her heart moved, and she stretched out one hand. Her slender fingers, like chopped scallions, lightly fell on Su San's face. She gently drew the lines, which were the softest touch points in her heart.

  His facial features are sharp and chiseled, like a ghostly axe, with a dark wheat-colored complexion that makes him even more charming. His eyebrows are thick and black, and his eyes are like ink and stars. When he's not smiling, his eyes seem like black gemstones, quietly shining with a faint light. When he smiles, it's as if the ice and snow have melted away, and the starlight is dazzling, making people forget to leave.

  "Su San, I suddenly realized that you look better than Li Yuzhu. Not just Li Yuzhu, but in my heart and eyes, you look more beautiful than anyone else. As the saying goes, 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder', at this moment, because of you, I truly feel it."

  Su San originally just stood quietly, letting the little woman's soft small hands do whatever they wanted on his face. Feeling the little woman's affection, it seemed as if his heart was surrounded by warm water, and he felt so happy that he wanted to bubble over. At this moment, however, a sudden voice with a smile came from beside his ear.

  Those words were faint and distant, but he still heard them clearly, crisp and penetrating.

  The little woman said he looked better than that pretty boy, Su San suddenly became delighted and seemed to have just discovered that he himself didn't look bad either.

  If Su San's words were to be heard by Old Lady Su of Nangong, she would surely scold him severely. Among her sons, not one was inferior in appearance; they could be considered the best among a thousand. However, despite their exceptional looks, they remained bachelors, leading Old Lady Su to believe that it was because the girls in Nangong were not good enough. Although Old Lady Su liked to take her younger son on blind dates, she would praise the girl excessively beforehand, only to find fault with her afterwards if her son didn't like her. She would then repeatedly tell herself that the girl had too many flaws and it was only natural that her son wouldn't be interested. Not just her son, even Old Lady Su herself couldn't bear the sight of such a flawed girl.

  It can be said that Su San's final view determined Old Lady Su's final attitude...

  It can be imagined that when Su San's obedient and flattering words entered the Su Mansion, what she got was not only the admiration of everyone in the Su Mansion, but also countless advantages after being brain-supplemented by Old Lady Su.

  She's actually tamed the cold and aloof young master of her own household, this girl is truly a divine existence. She's actually made her little son happy, this daughter-in-law must be perfect in every way. All the old lady needs to do is keep discovering all the good qualities of this daughter-in-law.

  Su San was overjoyed and held An Yan tightly in his arms. He didn't do anything else, just wanted to cherish this quiet moment. An Yan also enjoyed the warmth of this moment, quietly and softly being held by Su San. The large body tightly wrapped around the slender figure, and the silhouette cast on the ground unexpectedly appeared harmonious and beautiful.

  At the same time, in the Su family of Nangong.

  "Ah Chiu..."

  Old Mrs. Su let out a big sneeze, and unexpectedly turned her head to look at the old servant Aqiu who was waiting on her, "Aqiu, do you think someone is talking badly about me behind my back?"

  A-Qiu, who was waiting on the side, heard Old Lady Su's words and immediately widened her eyes, smiling and saying: "My old lady, you're really joking, who has such a big nerve to dare speak ill of you behind your back?"

  A Qiu had been by Su's side since she was a little girl, and later married the steward of the Su family. For most of her life, she had been accompanying Su, and their relationship was very deep, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them sisters. In Su's heart, she really regarded A Qiu as a sister, remembering everything. And A Qiu was also extremely loyal to Su, if others said something bad about Su, she would never agree with them.

  Because the two of them had a deep affection for each other, when there were no outsiders around, they would speak more casually. Therefore, when Old Lady Su heard Ah Qiu's teasing, she didn't take it to heart and instead smiled slyly, saying: "What are you talking about? I'm a kind-hearted and gentle old lady. There isn't another old lady as good as me in the entire South County. I'm so good, who would dare speak ill of me behind my back?"

  When Ah Qiu heard Old Lady Su's words, she suddenly covered her mouth and laughed. After laughing, she didn't forget to say: "Yes, the old lady is indeed the best in Nanguan."

  Old Lady Su's eyebrows suddenly rose, and she looked very pleased. However, this expression didn't last long, soon Old Lady Su's eyebrows drooped down, looking somewhat listless.

  A Qiu saw Su old lady a dejected look, suddenly strange way: "Old lady is bored? Otherwise find a few maids to play cards?"

  "It's no fun, I just want to take a look at the little daughter-in-law."

  “……”

  A Qiu felt helpless, every time the old lady mentioned San Shao Ye, she would become completely different from her usual self. It was as if at this moment, she didn't look like a mother thinking of her son, but rather a child wanting to be fed milk.

  "When will that little three finally bring his wife back for me to see? I've had this gift ready for almost half a year now, and he still hasn't brought her back. Alas, is it easy for me? I just want to take a look at my daughter-in-law, why is it so difficult?"

  Listening to the old lady's endless chatter over there, A-Qiu's mouth twitched, and she couldn't help but want to laugh. It was really the old lady and Third Young Master that made this mother-son pair quite comical. This mention of Third Young Master immediately brought him to mind; it had been almost half a year since they'd last met, and A-Qiu truly missed him, especially the image of the old lady and Third Young Master being together.

  "Third Master might already be on his way."

  "Really?"

  Old Mrs. Su suddenly became spirited, her eyes shining brightly, and her spirit was comparable to that of a young person.

  A-Qiu also figured it out, this old lady usually has a headache or fever. As long as she mentions San Ye, she suddenly becomes energetic and doesn't have any illness.

  "I'm telling you, old lady, you'd better be prepared, or else you'll scare Third Madam when the time comes."

  As soon as she heard this, Old Lady Su grumbled discontentedly: "How is that possible? How could I have scared her away? I'm delighted with her and it's not enough. Although I haven't seen her, if my little third son has taken a liking to her, then she must be the best. My little third son may be a bit rough around the edges, but in every other way he's top-notch. Such an excellent child's choice of wife can't be bad. Oh dear, just talking about Little Third and his wife makes me excited! Ah Qiu, why don't I go take a look at them myself?"

  "Huh?"

  A-Qiu was really frightened, this old lady actually wanted to go find her own son and daughter-in-law, she simply couldn't accept it.

  "A-Qiu, is it okay with you?"

  A-Qiu listened and was suddenly surprised: "Old lady, you can't be serious?"

  The old lady gave A-Qiu a stern look and said, "I've always been a serious person, I'm not joking. Waiting for Sanzi to bring his wife over to see me, who knows when that'll be? By then, maybe Sanzi will have a whole bunch of kids outside, and I won't even get the chance to meet my dear and sensible little daughter-in-law."

  Are you obedient and sensible? Ah Qiu secretly rolled her eyes, you've never seen anything like this before, beautiful or ugly, fat or thin, you don't even know the difference, yet you can tell if someone is obedient and sensible? This level of loving the cottage and the crow is truly frightening.

  "Old lady, don't you dare, or else Master and Second Master will worry themselves to death."

  "So, just don't let those two know."

  Old Lady Su gave A-Qiu a look that said "you really don't understand", making A-Qiu want to cry. She had heard of children running away from home, but never an old lady. Was she going to be the first in history? Just thinking about it made her feel thrilled and terrified.

  "A Qiu, don't worry, whether it's robbery or harassment, I'll take care of it. With my skills, if one comes, I'll beat one; if two come, I'll kill a pair."

  A Qiu: "!!" My old lady, although you were indeed very brave back then. But now that you're almost sixty, okay? Sixty, not sixteen, can you really still fight mountain bandits?

  Seeing Ah Qiu's unacceptable expression, the old lady suddenly whispered on one side: "Ah Qiu, are you worried that being kidnapped will be unfilial to your family's Old Wang?"

  A Qiu: "!" Up to now, no one has ever seen a 60-year-old old lady being kidnapped, those mountain bandits would absolutely not choose them if they had eyes. A Qiu felt particularly helpless towards the old lady's thinking, in fact, the old lady was usually very wise. Unfortunately, things involved San Ye, and the old lady's ideas became more and more absurd.

  But whether they will be robbed or seduced is not the point, the point is that two nearly sixty-year-old old women travel far and wide to visit their daughter-in-law, is this really good?

  "Ah Qiu, you're so timid and fearful, always worrying about this and that, you'll never accomplish anything great."

  A Qiu: "What's the big deal? She's already half in the ground!"

  "Old lady, this is absolutely not acceptable. I am determined not to agree with you, so you'd better give up on this idea. Otherwise, I'll tell Second Master and Third Master later, and be careful not to get confined."

  Seeing Ah Qiu's stubborn expression, Old Lady Su suddenly became unhappy. She said indignantly on the side: "I've made up my mind to go now, no matter how you look at it, you can't stop me. Ah Qiu, either you obediently come with me, or I'll sneak off alone by myself. Choose one of the two options quickly."

  "Is there a third option?"

  A-Qiu cried with a sad face, really being scared by the old lady's sudden and magical idea, almost crying out loud.

  "No."

  Old Lady Su was resolute and fearless, with a look of being ready to die. Since Little Sanzi didn't bring his wife for her to see, she went herself. Humph! Little Sanzi waited for Old Mother, thinking that by hiding his wife, Old Mother would be helpless.

  "Can we bring Old Wang along?"

  Old Lady Su: "......"

  Old Lady Su was frightened by Ah Qiu's words and was stunned for half a day before murmuring: "......can't bring family members."

  Akio: “......”

  In the end, two nearly sixty-year-old old ladies left home on a dark and windy night...

  Destination unknown...... Direction unknown......

  An Yan and Su San were quietly leaning against each other at this moment, completely unaware that two old ladies would be coming from afar to look for them...

  "Let's go back."

  It feels like it's getting late now, An Wen Bus lightly pushed Su San and softly protested.

  Su San remained unmoved, still tightly holding onto An Yan, and said in a low voice: "Just a little while longer."

  "Alright." An softly compromised and was held by Su San for a while longer.

  "It's time for dinner."

  An Yan felt it was really a bit late now, and pushed Su San's hand with some force.

  Su San didn't respond, as if she hadn't heard, and still held onto An Yan without letting go.

  "......" This man, in broad daylight, is he going to spend the night here? When the time comes, when Aunt and others come looking for him, seeing this scene, how will she have the face to see people. It's really infuriating, this dead man, who dares to be so presumptuous. Luckily, I'm in a good mood, otherwise I would have taught him a lesson. Now, he's taking advantage of my kindness and being even more excessive. It's really, how can one tolerate this?

  So, old trick, gentle words stretched out to Su San's weak spot, and pinched the sensitive area at his waist fiercely.

  It's really soul-stirring and bone-penetrating, taking people's lives.

  Su San sharply inhaled a breath of cool air, not because it hurt, but because the little woman's sudden movement caused friction on several parts of his body. Then, all sorts of inappropriate reactions occurred.

  An Yan had not yet discovered Su San's abnormal changes, but only heard him shouting in pain. He was suddenly startled and said: "Is it very painful? I didn't do it on purpose, I thought you were thick-skinned and not afraid of pain. And you just made me angry, my strength got out of control for a moment. You can't blame me for this, it has nothing to do with me."

  She spoke in a soft and humble tone, looking like a young daughter-in-law.

  At this moment, Su San did not dare to speak, otherwise his hoarse tone would surely betray him. At that time, it wouldn't be the good treatment he was receiving now. Su San secretly shifted his body slightly, wanting to distance himself from that gentle source a bit more, and calm down Little Su San.

  Alas, man proposes but heaven disposes...

  He spoke in a low voice and hung his head, but didn't get any response from Su San. He looked up puzzled, only to see Su San looking very embarrassed.

  "What's wrong with you?"

  Anxious and worried, he approached Su San to see what had happened. Unfortunately, he then encountered a close encounter with Little Su San.

  "Ah, words: '!' "

  Su San: "......"

  It's all right, this man, there's nothing more to say about him...

  I didn't mean to, I really didn't mean to...

  Su San felt quite wronged at this moment, if it wasn't for the little woman's pinch in the wrong place, he wouldn't have lost control either. So, this really can't be blamed on him. Because of feeling wronged, Su San used a pair of eyes to protest.

  Alright, An Yan accidentally got charmed. Think about it, a big and tough man who is normally fierce and intimidating suddenly makes a hurt and wronged expression towards you. That appearance is really too charming and lovable. An Yan couldn't help but admit that all her anger was dispelled by Su San's charming look.

  The expected family law did not arrive as scheduled, Su San's heart was overjoyed, but his mouth said in a serious tone: "Wife, we should go back and have dinner. Otherwise, Auntie and the others will be waiting anxiously."

  As they spoke, Su San naturally took An Yan's hand and then it was as if nothing had happened, they went to eat together. Although, Little Su San still didn't calm down...

  Walking up the stairs, I came to the second floor, but unexpectedly heard laughter coming from inside. There were children's voices, not just Fatou's, and it seemed like there was another child's voice. Moreover, that child's voice sounded somewhat familiar...

  Su San also figured it out...

  Su San felt that the voice was really familiar, and he had a faint sense of panic in his heart. The two of them came to the cafeteria with different emotions, and saw a harmonious scene inside. They also saw the owner of the voice, a very pretty little girl. This little girl was someone Su San knew, just met today...

  Isn't that the little girl who got Su San to help carry her parcels? Why is she here, at this moment in Bai's arms, laughing happily, like a sweet and innocent little angel.

  At this moment, Su San's first thought was four words: The vengeful spirit will not disperse...

  And that little guy was just tilting his head, and as soon as he saw a familiar face, his big eyes rolled around, seemingly thinking of something.

  Anwen looked at the lovely child and those sparkling big eyes, feeling extremely adorable. In her heart, she silently thought, I wonder if her future children will be as cute as this one.

  Su San was quietly worried, this child might become his trouble. Subconsciously, Su San quietly shifted his body, blocking An Yan behind him, with a protective appearance.

  The little girl saw Su San's action and wrinkled her cute little nose in a particularly speechless manner, with not a very good impression of Su San.

  The people in the house also saw An Yan and Su San, and everyone's eyes fell on them. The little fatty friend even ran happily to An Yan's side, standing at An Yan's feet, with small hands pulling An Yan's skirt, laughing and saying: "Auntie, Fatty found a good friend! Auntie, come over quickly and take a look at my new friend."

  Xiao Pang seemed particularly excited, pulling An Yan's skirt and dragging her towards the Bai family.

  Su San saw the movement of Pang Ya, he also particularly wanted to pull like that, pulling the little woman into his arms, letting her not go and contact with that dangerous little kid. However, there were so many people around, he still stood calmly on his own land.

  Anwen's face wore a smile as he followed the force of Pang Ya to arrive beside Bai Shi. A pair of elegant eyes stared unwaveringly at the little girl in Bai Shi's arms.

  The little girl, now clean and tidy, was dressed in a plump outfit. The pink dress had three layers, with small yellow flowers embroidered on top. On the little girl's body, it set off her beauty even more, originally an extremely lovely doll, at this moment even more exquisite like a painting come to life.

  The little girl also tilted her head, a pair of big eyes staring at An Yan with curiosity and tension on her tender face.

  Seeing the child's nervousness, An gently stretched out her hand and lightly patted the little girl's fluffy head, smiling and saying: "Pretty little doll, quickly tell sister, how did you end up here?"

  The little girl didn't say a word, she just kept her head tilted back, staring at An Yan with unblinking eyes.

  An smiled and looked at Bai Shi, but before he could say anything, Wang Shi on the side spoke up with a smile.

  It turned out that today, Bai's spirit was not bad, so Wang helped her walk out the door. Walking around and getting some sun would be good for her body too. As they walked slowly on the street, a little kid suddenly ran over and grabbed onto Bai's clothes, crying loudly and calling out "Auntie".

  Aunt?

  An Yan raised an eyebrow in surprise, and for a moment, he felt a sense of wonder. No wonder when he first saw this little girl, he thought her face looked very familiar. It turned out that she resembled his own mother, Bai Shi. At this moment, after hearing about this matter, An Yan lowered his head and carefully examined the little girl in front of him. Hmm, upon closer inspection, there was indeed a resemblance of five parts. Those eyebrows, those facial features, were indeed similar to Bai Shi's.

  Is this fate, or is there another reason? The words calm the doubts in my heart, but I still can't figure it out no matter how much I think about it.

  "Sister."

  The little girl looked at An Yan seriously for a long time before suddenly shouting like this.

  Upon hearing the soft and tender voice, An Yan felt his heart soften instantly. Such a lovely child, no matter whose it was, now in the White family, could be considered a kind of fate. Moreover, looking at the child's attire, like that of a little beggar, made An Yan wonder if he had been abandoned or discarded. No matter what the outcome was, An Yan felt heartbroken.

  "The child said he was going out to play with his father, but ended up being kidnapped by a human trafficker. The trafficker took him away, but fortunately the child was clever and managed to escape halfway. However, since the child was young, he didn't know his parents' names or where they originally lived. He wandered around and eventually ended up begging on Qingcheng Street."

  Bai held Little Yaotou and murmured about her past. Perhaps it was true that she had a deep connection with this child, for as she spoke of the child's experiences, tears welled up in Bai's eyes. Meanwhile, Little Yaotou looked confused, blinking innocently in Bai's arms, completely unaware of the ways of the world.

  Children are the most innocent, and this child can still retain this innocence and optimism after going through so many things, it's really rare.

  "After that, I'll be Xiao Yutou's sister from then on, okay?"

  He bent down slightly, making his line of sight even with Xiaoyao's, and spoke with a gentle smile.

  Xiao Yatou listened, and suddenly a joyful expression burst out in her big round eyes. She stretched out one finger, then looked at An Yan with big, expectant eyes.

  An Yan was somewhat perplexed for a moment, looking at Xiaoyao in confusion.

  "The pretty sister said she wants to be my sister and we should hold hands."

  "It turned out to be a draw, okay, then sister will make a deal with little girl."

  "Alright, alright, a hundred years without change." The little girl solemnly made a pact with An Yan, as if doing something very sacred.

  An Yan's gaze was soft and doting as she looked at the little girl in front of her, this child must have suffered a lot. From now on, she would definitely let her live well and be happy every day. Moreover, Pang Ya could also have a companion, two little guys together, it must be very fun.

  As expected, Xiao Pang also came over excitedly at this time, stretched out her own fingers on one side and shouted: "I want to hook too, Auntie I want to hook too."

  "Okay, okay, Fatso is here too."

  An Yan looked at the excited Xiao Pang, and quickly stretched out her hand to pull her into a hug. Xiao Pang was satisfied, then leaned against Xiao Yan's side and said with a smile: "Sister, my name is Pang, what's yours?"

  It seems like she's just gotten familiar with me, and Xiao Pangzi has already shown her enthusiasm, coming up to ask me this and that.

  "My name is Mengmeng, Cao Mingmeng."

  The little girl also smiled and told the fat girl her name, smiling and getting out of Bai's arms, jumping to the ground with the fat girl.

  Meng Meng? This name is really too predictable.

  I wonder what kind of person this child's parents are, to have thought of such a lovely name. I have to say, this kid is really cute, whether it's their appearance or personality. Thinking about the reason why Mo Mo asked Su San to take care of her bag, An Yan felt that this little guy was just too cute.

  At this time, Su San, who was standing on the side, felt a deep sense of crisis again. This kid calls Xiaofang "sister", and if he still calls him "uncle" later, should he respond or not?

  If I don't respond, won't it seem like I'm being too petty, arguing with a child? But if I do respond, isn't it like acknowledging that the little woman and I are being separated in name...
