As soon as they opened the door, Bai Doudou rushed out. It looked at Yang Fenglin with some confusion, but immediately put that aside and rolled around next to Bai Jiaojiao's legs.

Sister, you're finally back!

We haven't seen each other for several tens of minutes.

Sister, sister, sister, touch me, touch me, touch me!

Yang Fenglin laughed: "Sis, your dog could be used as a chopping board if it were laid flat, it's so wide."

"..."

Bai Jiaojiao put down her schoolbag, speechless.

She glanced at Bai Doudou and thought it was alright. Why did Shen Heng say that, and Yang Fenglin also said that?

Could it be that she really fattened DouDou up too much?

Impossible. DouDou is so lively and active, and even when she's tired, she takes DouDou out twice a day, morning and evening. She gets enough exercise, so the puppy won't get fat.

As a future doctor, how could she possibly let her dog get sick from obesity?

"That's complete nonsense."

Yang Fenglin chuckled and squatted down to play with Dou Dou.

When Bai Doudou went out, the neighbor would pet it a couple of times. Knowing that Yang Fenglin was a good person, it would turn over and show him its belly.

Bai Jiaojiao finished tidying up and came out. Yang Fenglin hadn't finished playing with Dou Dou yet: "Sister, let me play with your family a little longer."

"We still need to go to the hospital to pick up my third brother. He can come and play with Dou Dou anytime. Don't let it interfere with our business."

Yang Fenglin stroked the dog's head reluctantly: "Little puppy, I'll bring you a big bone to eat next time I come back."

"Awoo!"

Whether Bai Doudou understood or not, it responded to Yang Fenglin, which made Yang Fenglin even more excited.

"Sis, you really are a college student; even your dog is smart."

"..."

Bai Jiaojiao thought to herself, Yang Fenglin is already twenty-two, how come he's still so silly.

"Let's go."

Yang Fenglin and Bai Jiaojiao went to Bai Shibao's ward at the hospital. Yang Fenglin recognized Bai Shibao at a glance as soon as he stood at the door: "Sister, is this Third Brother? He looks quite like you."

Bai Shibao's eyebrows and eyes resembled his mother's, only his features were more resolute. The wounds on his face had healed; after the gauze was removed, there was a scab from below his ear to his jawline, but it didn't detract from his inherited handsome face. Once the scab fell off, it would be even less noticeable.

"Third Brother, this is Yang Fenglin. I heard you were recuperating here, but my sister wouldn't let me come for fear I'd bother you. Today I finally get to see you. Third Brother, you look even more like me and Dad when we were young. It's true, they say nephews resemble their uncles, and that's absolutely true."

Bai Jiaojiao saw that Yang Changping had aged, and she really didn't think he resembled Bai Shibao at all. Hearing Yang Fenglin say this, she was a little curious about what Yang Changping looked like when he was young.

Bai Shibao wasn't very good at talking, and he felt a little embarrassed after being told off by the outgoing Yang Fenglin. He could only smile awkwardly.

On the way, Yang Fenglin, who had been so enthusiastic, was starting to lose his temper: "Third Brother, why are you ignoring me? I've always been a chatterbox, don't find me annoying. I'm a pretty good person, you can ask my sister if you don't believe me."

"No, I'm just a little nervous."

Bai Shibao had always envied those who were eloquent since childhood. He was bad at talking, and even when he was bullied by other children when he was young, it was Bai Shiqing who stepped in to scold them back for him.

"Don't be nervous. My dad was so happy when my sister told him that you were serving in this military region. He kept saying that there was someone to carry on the family line. Before we found you, I was the only one in our generation. I know I'm not good enough, and my dad couldn't bear to part with me. So their only hope for me was that I could live a peaceful old age, which would be a victory. But suddenly there's an outstanding child in the family, and he's so happy. It's like his fighting spirit has been rekindled."

Bai Jiaojiao admired Yang Fenglin quite a bit; this kid could lie flat so perfectly.

He's right. For a rich kid with little ability, doing nothing might be the biggest contribution to the family.

Yang Fenglin drove much faster home, knowing the way well, speeding all the way back. Bai Shibao, riding in Yang Fenglin's car for the first time, thought they were on some urgent mission.

Yang Fenglin parked his car in front of a row of two-story villas. Not to mention Bai Shibao, even Bai Jiaojiao's heart was pounding.

How can I not be nervous?

The matter of recognizing relatives never happened in the previous life.

“Let’s go. My dad and grandpa talked about this this morning. He kicked me out early this morning and told me to bring you home right away.”

No sooner had Yang Fenglin finished speaking than three people emerged from the small Western-style building next door.

Yang Changping, supporting his father, called out from the side, "Dad, slow down."

Du Ying lagged slightly behind, but as soon as she heard the car outside, she came out to greet it.

Seeing this, Bai Jiaojiao quickly jumped out of the car, opened the car door, and helped Bai Shibao out.

"Anzi!"

The aged voice was filled with uncontrollable emotion. Bai Jiaojiao didn't know why, but when she heard Grandpa Yang call out her mother's name, she was suddenly overcome with grief and a tear fell from her eye.

"Dad, this is Jiaojiao, Anzi's daughter! Look how much they look alike!"

Yang Changping supported Old Master Yang from the side. Old Master Yang was still quite healthy, but he was not as young as he used to be. Yang Changping was afraid that Old Master Yang would get too excited, so he kept supporting him and dared not let go.

"Grandpa, it's me, Jiaojiao."

Bai Jiaojiao went up and called out.

Old Master Yang tremblingly reached out his hand, and Bai Jiaojiao took it. Old Master Yang had already heard the news of Yang An's death from Yang Changping. He had been processing his emotions all day, but he suddenly broke down when he saw Bai Jiaojiao.

Bai Jiaojiao looked at Grandpa Yang and suddenly felt a pang of sadness.

Because of his age, he had lost a lot of height and weight. His eyes were red under his drooping eyelids. Although Grandpa Yang did not have a problem with trembling hands, his hand holding Bai Jiaojiao's kept trembling.

When Yang Changping heard Bai Jiaojiao call him "Grandpa," he felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders.

He looked at Bai Shibao and said, "You must be Shibao? Which unit are you in now?"

Bai Shibao stated the unit number of the new unit he was about to join, and Yang Changping nodded: "These are all elites. They truly deserve to be descendants of the Yang family! They've got guts!"

Yang Fenglin: "..."

So he isn't?

"Oh dear, why are you chatting outside? Let's go inside and talk slowly. Jiaojiao, quickly help your grandpa in. Your aunt bought a lot of pastries today, the little girl will definitely like them. I wonder if Shibao will like them too, come in and have a taste."

Du Ying urged everyone to come inside, and Bai Jiaojiao said, "Grandpa, let's go inside and talk!"

"Okay, okay." Although Grandpa Yang was old, he was still sharp of hearing and sight and had a clear mind.

Despite his excitement, he still possessed some analytical ability.

The group entered the house, where a sofa was packed full of people. The Yang family line had dwindled, and this scene was a thing of the past, more than twenty years ago.

The old man was very excited, grabbing Bai Jiaojiao with one hand and Bai Shibao with the other: "You two have been doing well all these years, haven't you? Why didn't you come to see your grandpa?"
