"I'm back. I should be in my dorm right now," Lan Yuchu replied truthfully.

When Su Xiaole heard that he had returned, she took the bag of cake and turned to her brother, saying, "Brother, you can take your time looking around. I'll come back to find you later."

He immediately took off running.

Watching his younger sister run off into the distance, he complained helplessly, "She didn't even leave me a bite to eat!"

"Xiao Le must be overjoyed! These past few days, Jianguo has been feeling down because he thinks Xiao Le is going to find a girlfriend. It's good that you've talked it out. As his brother-in-law, you can just have Jianguo buy you as much food as you want."

Lin Qiyue quickly echoed.

Su Yuan nodded and said, "That makes sense."

Su Yuan said a few words to Lan Yuchu, then went back to the guesthouse on his own.

On their way back, Lin Qiyue and Lan Yuchu saw Chen Yaqin's daughter sitting alone under a tree, looking sullen.

Lan Yuchu followed his wife's gaze and then said, "Xiao Tiao'er's homeroom teacher is Sister-in-law Han. She is currently living at the political commissar's house. Her grandparents refuse to adopt this granddaughter, who is about seven years old. Adoptive families cannot accept someone that old. Currently, the political commissar and the quartermaster are still looking for a suitable family."

Lin Qiyue felt sorry for her, but when she thought about how she was Chen Yaqin's daughter, all her guilt disappeared.

"It's good that she left Chen Yaqin. If she can receive proper upbringing, she probably won't end up like her mother!" Lin Qiyue sighed helplessly.

Chen Yaqin used shady means to marry Lao Xiao, but her husband died. She then tried to find herself another husband using the same methods.

She didn't care at all whether these things were legal or not; her daughter would get into serious trouble sooner or later if she stayed with her.

Lan Yuchu gently patted Lin Qiyue's shoulder.
