“No.” The young man refused coldly. He was not as cute as he was when he talked to Ji Yan. He suddenly noticed that Ji Yan was staring at him. He lowered his head and said in a pitiful trembling voice, “In fact… Grandpa and Dad are very busy. No one will play with me when I go back. I don’t want to go back. I like you.”
Yan Feng’s little hand, which was holding onto the spoon, trembled. He was so frightened that he almost threw the spoon away. He glanced at him suspiciously and could not believe that his “love” contained him.
However… Yan Feng blinked his big eyes and gave him a kind smile. Since he liked him, of course, he couldn’t hate him. As long as he didn’t steal his mother from him, he could give Uncle Lin to him.
And this smile, in the eyes of the other party, changed. After accepting the sarcasm of Yan Feng, the female officer curled her lips in disdain. What a childish love maniac.
Then he raised his small face to look at Ji Yan, and there was a desire in his beautiful eyes that was not in line with his peers.
He thought to himself that it was better to win sympathy than to lose his temper. The woman in front of him was kind and had a good impression of him, so she would definitely not drive him home.
This was indeed the case. Ji Yan looked at Lin Feng in embarrassment, hoping that he could give her some good advice. Anyway, she had no resistance to children.
Lin Feng frowned and accepted her helpless gaze. He slammed the table and decided, “Then stay for two days. I’ll wait for your grandfather to come back to pick you up, but I still have to call and ask.”
He took a child home for no reason. He was not as kind as Ji Yan, so he was more rational than emotional. Even if he promised to accept him, he could not be so confused.
“Well, okay.” The policeman nodded obediently and picked up the dumplings that Ji Yan picked up in his bowl. He was a little curious.
He tried to take a bite according to Ji Yan’s way of eating, and the dumpling stuffing was mixed with all kinds of taste. Although he couldn’t list out all the details, he could still feel most of them.
Although the taste was not as delicate as that made by the cooks in the manor, he inexplicably liked it. It seemed that this was the true taste.
After eating a few mouthfuls, he stopped. Ji Yan saw that he liked it and asked him if it was his first time eating it. He nodded and said, “I like it very much. Thank you.” After a pause, he added, “Mom.”
Ji Yan blushed and answered with embarrassment.
Lin Feng’s hands trembled, and his chopsticks fell on the table.
Yan Feng’s eyes twitched… Well, he sniffed and tried to hold back his tears.
After pausing for a long time, Lin Feng took a deep breath. It was hard for him to accept this sudden change. Why did he call her mother? Even if there was an ancient Chinese saying, “If there is milk, then there is a mother.” But how could this foreign child live and use it?
Lin Feng carefully considered his words, but he could not say anything that could hurt the patient’s immune system. He could tell that the child was very sensitive. His index finger tapped on the dining table casually. Lin Feng asked the question in his heart, “When did you… set your relationship?”
“Uh…” Three burning gazes shot at her. She could not help but shiver. Her gaze was evasive and she could not give a satisfactory answer.
If she told him the truth and said that it was just a delaying tactic, then she would definitely be sad again. If she was worried about her parents, and said that the two of them called each other mother and son after they both slept together last night? What would Lin Feng think if she said it out loud? How sad would Yan Feng be? She found it ridiculous.
She was not a teenage girl. How could she be obedient?
After all, he was no longer young, and he was not as young as he was this time. He would subconsciously look over everything and think about all the consequences. It was already the extreme for him to bring back the information related to the company on impulse. “Mom” was just a title, just an illusory promise to him.
But in consideration of everyone’s emotions, Ji Yan’s eyes froze. She thought for a moment and said, “Maybe the night last night was too beautiful, and the meeting was too sudden.”
The three of them were confused by her irrational words. They frowned at the same time, staring at her face as if they wanted to get other answers.
Ji Yan turned a blind eye to their gazes. She calmly picked up a dumpling, dipped it in sauce, opened her mouth, and swallowed it…
“Mom, I want to eat that!”
“Mom, I want to eat too.”
Ji Yan was helpless and couldn’t move with the two children. Lin Feng calmly bought them and handed them to them respectively.
“Mom, I want to play that!”
“Mom, I want to play too.”
The newly bought cotton candy was returned to Lin Feng one after the other. The two little faces looked at her almost at the same time. Ji Yan nodded helplessly and carried them onto the children’s merry-go-round.
“Mom, mom…”
“Mom…”
There were more and more requirements for the two children, which they wanted to see. They also wanted to have fun, but they had to name Ji Yan. Ji Yan was so busy that she couldn’t think about it, as if she were giving orders mechanically. Lin Feng could not help but smile bitterly. Was he being looked down upon?
In response to Yan Feng’s promise, they went to the amusement park after breakfast. This was indeed the heaven for children. The two children were like wild horses who had rushed out of the circle and were jumping around happily. No matter how hard they tried, they could not pull them away.
Ji Yan was glad. Fortunately, this was a children’s amusement park, where there was nothing to be done, so she didn’t have to keep an eye on it all the time. Even the slightly reserved and silent children were very lively. She was really short of energy.
Standing beside Lin Feng, the two children jumped up and down on the bed. Ji Yan was shocked by this height, but they laughed heartlessly. Yan Feng’s mouth was so cracked that there was a black hole on the right side of the bed, which was the side effect of teeth falling a few days ago. Ji Yan couldn’t help wondering what kind of family taught such a well-educated child. Even if she laughed, she only showed her white teeth and didn’t laugh loudly.
A child was lively, and two children were lively.
Ji Yan rubbed her waist, stretched out her hand to her back, and pounded it again, as if her bones were falling apart.
She sighed bitterly in her heart. These two children couldn’t be more tortured. Wherever they could think of, they would take advantage of the four of them to go through every place in the past two days.
Lying on the sofa and seeing Lin Feng’s tired look on the opposite side, they looked at each other and smiled. Both of them were in the same boat.
On the beige sofa, two tired people’s bodies were hollowed out, but their hearts were full.
The light was shining, and the dim yellow light covered this warm little home.
They didn’t have a real mother, a real father, or a mother-and-son relationship. But they happened to meet each other. They lived in this small building, separated by mountains and rivers. They lived together, which added a different trace to their lives.
