"The child is awake." Zhu Yipin saw that the child had opened his eyes and hurriedly asked,""Little friend, what's your name? Where are your parents? Tell me, I'll give you candy!”
The child didn't say a word. He just looked at Zhu Yipin in confusion.
"Do you think it's coaxing a child?!" Chen Anan looked disgusted, thinking that Zhu Yipin's question was too childish.
"Isn't this just a child?" Zhao Buzhu complained to the kid, but he didn't think that he would have to pay the price for refuting Chen Anan.
"Do you think I can't tell?”It was hard to find the word " wrong " in Chen Anan's dictionary. No matter what she said was correct, she always had her own way of saying it to make others speechless.
"I think there's something wrong with this child. I think he's either mute or retarded." Chen Anan felt annoyed whenever she looked at the child, fearing that she would get into trouble.
Zhao Buzhu felt the same way and nodded repeatedly.""Yes, yes, yes. This child's background is unknown and he's definitely not a good person. Why don't we send him to the government?”
"That's not right. Looking at his tattered clothes, he must have been abandoned. In this case, he should be sent to the nursery.”Chen Anan was proud of his keen observation skills, but he didn't notice that Liu Ruoxin was getting angrier as she listened.
Liu Ruoxin glared at Chen Anan and Zhao Buzhu and said,""Who said anything about sending him away?"
"If you don't send them away, then you can raise them! I need money to eat, drink, and pee. Do you think business is easy?”
Chen Anan was unhappy with Liu Ruoxin's rebuttal, so he returned the favor. In her opinion, it was already difficult for Liu Ruoxin to support herself, let alone raise a child. Raising a ten-year-old child to adulthood would cost a lot of money. Liu Ruoxin couldn't afford it.
"I'll take care of it." Liu Ruoxin was also a stubborn person. She took out a stack of silver notes and put it on the bedside.
Chen Anan stared at the banknote in a daze. This was really out of her expectation. She didn't expect Liu Ruoxin to be a hidden rich man!
Zhou Jie knew that Chen Anan and the others would be suspicious if Liu Ruoxin suddenly took out so much money. He hurriedly changed the topic,""Since Ruoxin is willing to adopt this child, we can help her find her family while treating her illness. It's the best of both worlds.”
Chen Anan didn't pursue the matter anymore. She put away the banknotes first.
"Don't be afraid. I'll take you to rest now.”Liu Ruoxin gently stroked the child's hair and carried her up. Zhou Jie hurried over to help her.
Liu Ruoxin saw that the child was dirty, so she decided to help her bathe. Since his goddess was busy, Zhou Jie naturally volunteered to help boil water.
When Zhou Jie finished boiling the water and brought it to Liu Ruoxin's room, he found her pacing back and forth at the door.
Liu Ruoxin saw Zhou Jie coming over and hurriedly greeted him,""You're finally here. Go in and help that child bathe!”
"That child is a girl. It's not appropriate!" Zhou Jie was embarrassed after hearing Liu Ruoxin's words. Although the loli was cute, he was not a gentleman.
"Girl, you're not lying to me, right?" Liu Ruoxin was shocked. After all, the child was thin and weak, and he was wearing such loose clothes. It was really difficult to distinguish his gender. She had always thought that the child was a boy.
Zhou Jie patted his chest and promised,"Trust me, it won't be wrong."”
Liu Ruoxin saw that Zhou Jie didn't seem to be lying, so she pushed the door open and walked in.
Zhou Jie shook his head in amusement."Old Yang, you have to thank me properly. I saved you from an embarrassing incident.”
The next day, when Liu Ruoxin brought the child out, everyone was shocked. It was true that a Buddha depended on his golden clothes, and a person depended on his clothes. That child was dressed in tattered clothes last night, but she looked so cute after changing her clothes today. She would definitely be a beauty when she grew up.
Perhaps it was because Zhou Jie saved her, the entire clinic was the closest to Liu Ruoxin and him.
"How did you sleep last night? Do you feel uncomfortable?”Zhou Jie squatted down and patted her head. After all, she was still poisoned. Zhou Jie was really worried that the poison would suddenly erupt.
The child shook his head and remained silent.
Liu Ruoxin gave Zhou Jie a reassuring look and said,""Tong Tong doesn't feel unwell."
As soon as Liu Ruoxin finished her words, everyone looked at her in confusion.
"Tong Tong is the name I gave her. It's not bad, right?”Liu Ruoxin felt much better now that Tongtong was taking care of her. She wasn't as depressed as before.
Although Chen Anan said that it was troublesome, she still cared about Tongtong. She put the only plate of roast duck in front of Tongtong.
"Anan, what are we going to eat if you feed her all the meat?" Zhao Buzhu said unhappily.”
Chen Anan rolled her eyes at Zhao Buzhu and said,""Isn't there shredded pork with green pepper?”
"Is there? Where's the meat?" Zhao Buzhu searched the plate of green peppers, hoping to find Chen Anan's meat.
Chen Anan sighed. She used her chopsticks to push away the green peppers on the top. Finally, she picked up a piece of shredded pork at the bottom of the plate and showed it to Zhao Buzhu."If this isn't meat, then what is it? I, Chen Anan, am very straightforward. If I say it's shredded pork with green pepper, then it's shredded pork with green pepper.”With that, he ate the shredded meat in one bite.
"Where's the meat? It can't be just one, right?”Zhao Buzhu didn't believe this and searched the dishes.
"What's wrong with one? First come, first served. All of you are lazy and lazy every day. I want to cultivate your competitive spirit.”Chen Anan looked at Zhao Buzhu proudly. It was as if this was very glorious.
Looking at Zhao Buzhu's defeated expression, Zhou Jie could not help but make a face at Tong Tong. Tong Tong seemed to find it funny too. He finally smiled for the first time since he entered the clinic.
"Hey! You little brat, how dare you mock me.”Zhao Buzhu was displeased. Chen Anan had insulted him, but how dare a child like you mock me?
Tong Tong stuck out his tongue at Zhao Buzhu as if he was showing off. He picked up two pieces of duck meat and put them into Liu Ruoxin and Zhou Jie's bowls.
Liu Ruoxin didn't understand why Tong Tong was so sensible, so she said gratefully," Thank you." Zhou Jie could not help but rub Tong Tong's hair lovingly.
Zhu Yipin looked at the three of them and whispered to Chen Anan,""Do you think the three of them look like a family?”Chen Anan nodded in agreement.
Although Zhu Yipin spoke in a low voice, Zhou Jie and Liu Ruoxin were both Innate Masters, so their hearing was far superior to ordinary people. Zhu Yipin's words naturally entered the ears of the two.
Zhou Jie and Liu Ruoxin blushed and buried their heads in their food, not daring to look at each other. Tong Tong saw that the two of them had suddenly become strange. He could not figure out what had happened to them. He shrugged helplessly and continued to eat.
After breakfast, everyone discussed Tong Tong's background again.
"I know!" Seeing that the time was right, Zhou Jie pretended to have just noticed it. He pointed at Tong Tong's shoes and said,"Look at Tong Tong's shoes. It says 'Spring Breeze Town's shoe shop'. Based on this, Tong Tong should be from Fresh Breeze Town.”
"If I bring Tong Tong to Fresh Breeze Town, what about the clinic? It would take a few days to go back and forth to such a faraway place, and they might not even be able to find her family. Seeing that they were going to Spring Breeze Town again, Chen Anan quickly objected. After all, they would lose a lot of money if they closed the shop for so many days!
Zhou Jie had read the original novel and stayed in the clinic for a year. He did not know Chen Anan's thoughts like the back of his hand, but he could guess what she was thinking. He had already thought of how to persuade her.
Zhou Jie pulled Chen Anan aside and whispered,""Anan, think about it. How long has it been since you last went out with Old Zhu? "This time, we'll bring Tong Tong to Spring Wind Town. When the time comes, we'll definitely look for her family separately. By then, won't you have a chance to spend time alone with Old Zhu?”
Hearing this, Chen Anan was tempted. She turned around and said,""Although the clinic is important, we can't just watch a child lose his family and live alone in this world. "Therefore, I've decided to bring Tong Tong to Spring Wind Town tomorrow. Everyone, pack your bags tonight and rest early. No one is to be late tomorrow.”After saying that, she went back to her room to tidy up her things.
Everyone was shocked to see that Chen Anan's attitude had changed after Zhou Jie said a few words.
" What did you say to An 'an, Old Zhou?" Zhu Yipin asked hurriedly." Why is there such a big difference between the two of you?"”
"Trust me, you don't want to know.”Zhou Jie patted Yipin Zhu's shoulder and looked at him sympathetically.
Seeing Zhou Jie's expression, Zhu Yipin was baffled and puzzled. In the end, he could only blame it on Chen Anan's sudden realization.
Zhou Jie recalled that in the original novel, Tong Tong seemed to have gone to Yang Yuxuan's room at night and caused some unpleasantness between Yang Yuxuan and Liu Ruoxin. Therefore, Zhou Jie specially told Liu Ruoxin to take good care of Tong Tong.
Perhaps Zhou Jie's advice had worked, and the night was peaceful.
Early in the morning, everyone prepared their luggage and left. Zhao Buzhu hung a wooden sign on the door that read "Closed for Rectification".
Chen Anan pushed Zhao Buzhu away and said with disdain,""What do you mean by closing down! You don't even know how to say auspicious words." After saying that, Chen Anan proudly put on the wooden sign that said," Close the shop."
Zhu Yipin looked at the wooden token and could not remain calm. He sighed and said,"Anan, you've been using idioms so crazily recently!”
Zhou Jie was also speechless at the two of them. Each of them was more simple-minded than the other. Why didn't they just hang up a " out on business "? Why did they make it seem like they were going to close down?
Of course, Zhou Jie was just thinking about it. He was not as bold as Zhu Yipin, who dared to say anything in front of Chen Anan.
"Old Yang, why did you bring a weapon with you when you went out?”Zhao Buzhu saw Yang Yuxuan holding a knife in his hand. He was very curious and wanted to touch it.
Yang Yuxuan took the knife away and avoided Zhao Buzhu's hand. He said,""It's inevitable for accidents to happen when you're out. It's good to bring a weapon to protect yourself.”
"Oh! It's like this." Zhao Buzhu nodded and turned around to see Zhou Jie and Liu Ruoxin each holding a sword. He asked curiously,""You guys have it too. Let me see.”
Liu Ruoxin cherished the Dragon Scale Art in her hand very much. Seeing that Zhao Buzhu was about to draw his sword, she hurriedly dodged.
However, she managed to dodge it, but Zhou Jie was exposed. Zhou Jie let Zhao Buzhu pull out his Qingfeng sword.
The Qingfeng Sword was unsheathed and glinted coldly under the sunlight. It was obvious that it was a rare sword.
Liu Ruoxin and Yang Yuxuan couldn't help but look at Zhou Jie. They knew that Zhou Jie used an ordinary iron sword before, so they didn't know where this sword came from.
