He was wearing a casual white sweatshirt and the same pair of rubber shoes issued by the cafeteria at the base.

He walked out of the stairs, with one leg of his trousers rolled up and the other unrolled, looking exhausted. But in the blink of an eye, his eyes, which had been narrowed into lines, relaxed, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a smile.

Lin Chaoxi saw this change clearly.

He was nervous and serious one second, but became calm and relaxed the next, as if he looked down on others.

Yes, Lao Lin is here.

Now the situation suddenly changes, similar to the climax before the end of a movie, when both sides are ready to fight to the death, a big man who can change the situation suddenly appears, and everything develops in an unpredictable direction.

But having someone to back you up gives you confidence.

Lin Chaoxi held her waist and retracted her gaze, preparing to look at Vice Principal Zhang. At this time, another person walked past the corner of the stairs.

The second person to climb up was a middle-aged lady with short curly hair and graying temples. Her chest was heaving because she climbed to the seventh floor in one breath, but it was also possible that she was simply angry.

Looking at the person coming, Lin Chaoxi was stunned again. Today's corner was too scary!

Why is the party chairman with Lao Lin?

This question made her scalp tingle. All kinds of doubts flashed through her mind, so much so that she completely ignored Jie Ran who came up last.

While she was petrified, Lao Lin had already walked up to Vice Principal Zhang.

Lao Lin stood still and raised his hand with a natural posture. William Chang thought he wanted to shake hands, so he subconsciously raised his hand as well. But Lao Lin's hand turned away in a second, and he reached into his pocket to take out a pack of cigarettes, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth.

Vice Principal Zhang's hand stopped in mid-air, his face looking very ugly.

Chang Shu Ping: "Sir, smoking is strictly prohibited inside the teaching building."

"Oh, I hold it in my mouth." Lao Lin laughed, "It makes me look more impressive."

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand again, spread his five fingers, and placed it on Zhang Shuping's chest. Vice Principal Zhang had already put his hand down, and for a moment he had no intention of raising it again, and just frowned and said nothing.

Lao Lin: "Teacher, please shake hands. It's basic etiquette."

After being chatted with by Old Lin, Lin Chaoxi's nervous mood was relieved a lot. The director of the party also came forward and raised his hand politely: "Dang Aiping, the director of the Red Star Welfare Home."

Facing the two parents, Vice Principal Zhang could only helplessly shake hands again and responded: "Hello."

"Which school did you graduate from?" Old Lin asked, leaning against the windowsill with a cigarette in his mouth.

Vice Principal Zhang: "I'm afraid this has nothing to do with you."

"I'm just asking, most adults either ask about salary or how many houses they have, I have nothing, so I can only ask this."

"As for my teaching qualifications, if the party president questions me, I can..."

Lao Lin interrupted him: "No, I saw you confessed to peeing, and I thought you have some ideas, not like a fool, so I asked out of courtesy."

"It's not Xiaojie! That word is pronounced as xie!" Jie Ran protested behind him.

Chang Shu Ping was very frank: "I didn't recruit Teacher Jie Ran."

Lao Lin: "Oh, that's because we have different teaching philosophies. But you can't just kick my students and me out so casually."

Lin Chaoxi talked to Lao Lin and quickly interrupted: "Master, we have finished talking. You just said 'OK'."

"I just heard 'If you can do it, start...', what did it say before that?" Lao Lin asked.

Lin Chaoxi thought you agreed without knowing it, so he repeated the agreement they had just made.

"So, your average score has to be higher than Zhang Liang and his team's, and it will take you 5 days?"

"right……"

"Okay." Lao Lin said straightforwardly, "No need to drag it out and hesitate."

Lin Chaoxi: "Master, we can't make a decision on our own. We need to ask for other people's opinions."

"Just asking, it's quite interesting. In life, there are only a few opportunities to really work hard, and it would be a pity if you missed them."

The sun is shining brightly today, the lake breeze is refreshing, and what Lao Lin said is even more refreshing than the lake breeze.

He said to William Chang: "I want to stay."

"Can."

Lao Lin nodded: "Okay."

He finished speaking, looked at them and said, "Let's go."

"Why are you leaving? Who are you?" the party director asked Lao Lin.

Lao Lin didn't answer her, turned around and left.

Lin Zhaoxi hurriedly asked her, "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to pick you up." Dean Dang said unhappily, "I received a call at 12 o'clock last night saying that my child had violated the law and was advised to leave. They asked me to come and pick him up at 8 o'clock this morning."

When it comes to "My Child

When he heard the word "son", Lao Lin's leisurely figure paused for a moment, and then quickly returned to normal.

"The school is really going too far! Disturbing you with such a trivial matter in the middle of the night!" Lin Chaoxi glanced at him and asked sternly.

The party president glanced at her, but still couldn't come to his senses.

"Why did you come with my master?" Lin Zhaoxi asked in a low voice, "Did you know each other before?"

"I don't know him. He came to the welfare house, pretending to be someone willing to adopt you. He looked at your basic information and left." The party director has always been well-mannered, but at this moment he couldn't help but complain, "Where did you know this messed-up person?"

Lin Chaoxi didn't hear the second half of the sentence.

Yes, she has been pestering Lao Lin for so long, wouldn’t Lao Lin be suspicious?

Lao Lin is not a fool.

She raised the corners of her mouth. Old Lin was really cunning. He must have been paying attention to her silently, right?

She quietly let go of the party director's hand, ran behind Lao Lin, patted him on the back, and asked with a smile: "Master, how did you know I was from the Red Star Welfare Home?"

"I'm not stupid." Old Lin was speechless, almost mumbling, "No one sent me home early in the morning, I didn't go home at night, I wandered around all day, either my parents were careless or no one took care of me."

"Sir, we give children great freedom, which is something no other welfare home can do!" the party director shouted from behind.

"I got it, thank you!" Lao Lin also shouted.

The two were shouting at each other across the corridor, and it was probably during this pause that Lin Chaoxi came to his senses a little and felt that something was wrong.

The director's mother said that Lao Lin pretended to be someone willing to adopt a child and went to the welfare home on purpose. He must have done so out of suspicion.

But after that, Lao Lin just left and his attitude towards her didn't change much, so there must be something wrong with the file...

File?

Birthday?

Thinking of this, many things that could not even be called clues came together, and she seemed to understand something.

In the corridor, Lao Lin was almost at the end, and there were two small holes on the back of his sweatshirt.

The footsteps sounded light, but also heavy.

Time is like a pair of hands, kneading the entire space together.

The old Lin who secretly picked up the pork chop in the noodle shop, the old Lin who told her that it was never too late to start, the old Lin with a look of world-weariness and indifference in the park, the old Lin who appeared with an umbrella on a rainy day, the old Lin who described the magnificent world of mathematics to the children in the cafeteria...

Many faces overlapped and became her father. No matter what time or what space, he would always be her father.

Then the father's feelings towards his daughter will never change.

Lin Chaoxi looked at his back and asked, "Master, why do you want to look at my file?"

"Just taking a look." Lao Lin did not stop.

"Would you like to adopt me?"

"Oh."

"Do you want to adopt me, or do you want to find someone?"

Courage comes suddenly and does not require any preparation or psychological construction.

For Lin Chaoxi, she didn't know why she chose such a time and place, but since she had decided to do whatever was difficult, she would be a brave person and not make excuses to avoid any problem, even if it was only for one day.

Lao Lin finally stopped walking. When he heard her last question, his hands on the stairs trembled.

Lin Chaoxi walked forward slowly, and with every step, he seemed to grow a little bigger.

She saw herself in elementary school, celebrating her admission to a prestigious junior high school, giving up science and switching to liberal arts in high school, participating in various activities in college but deceiving herself when faced with the choice of life path before graduation...

Those happy and cheerful her and those sad and depressed her, those are her and they are not her...

She walked up to Lao Lin, took the big hand and placed it on her head.

Leaning forward slightly, she rested her head on Lao Lin's chest and said slowly, "Master, I don't know if you have lost someone very important. If so, can you take me to get a DNA test to see if I am the person you are looking for, okay?"
