Xiao Hai had no idea what was going on, his mouth still full of food. He only knew that Ye Yun wanted to take him out, so he nodded obediently.

Ye Yun put down her chopsticks.

He wiped his hands with a wet towel and wiped the oil stains from Xiaohai's mouth.

Holding Xiao Hai's hand, she stood up and told Gu Yingying: "Take care of the child and eat slowly first, we will be back soon."

"Okay, come back as soon as possible."

Knowing that Ye Yun was going to pick up Lao Mao, Gu Yingying had no objection. She even thought that Ye Yun brought Xiao Hai with her because she didn't dare to go out alone and wanted someone to accompany her.

"Come on, Dongdong, let's eat it all!"

When Ye Yun went out, Gu Yingying was still instigating Dongdong to do bad things with her.

At the factory gate.

Xun Xiangbin was standing at the factory gate holding a sealed cardboard box, looking anxious and expectant.

Finally, Ye Yun's figure appeared in front.

But there was a child about four years old following Ye Yun, who was obediently and well-behavedly walking towards him step by step, holding Ye Yun's hand.

It was a little dark, and Xun Xiangbin couldn't see the child's appearance clearly, so he couldn't help but push up his glasses.

It was not until Ye Yun brought the child closer that he could suddenly see the child's appearance under the warm light of the incandescent lamp at the door.

His expression was stunned for a moment.

"Mr. Xun."

Ye Yun took Xiao Hai to the door, her lips curled up just the right way, and she looked at Xun Xiangbin with a smile.

Looking at Xun Xiangbin's dazed face when he saw Xiao Hai, her smile did not reach her eyes.

Xiao Hai is not used to looking strangers in the eye.

Being stared at by Xun Xiangbin, he became frightened and tightly grasped Ye Yun's hand, and involuntarily hid behind Ye Yun.

He only poked out half of his head, and looked at Xun Xiangbin quietly with a pair of confused big eyes.

Xun Xiangbin stared at the child in astonishment.

After a long while, he moved his mouth and murmured, "Director Ye, I wonder who this person is..."

"A child from a distant relative's family."

Ye Yun still had a decent smile on her face, and answered calmly and fluently so that Xun Xiangbin could not find any fault with her.

Xun Xiangbin stared at Xiao Hai for another two seconds, then moved his mouth, wanting to ask more questions.

"Why do you ask these questions, Mr. Xun?"

Before he could ask, Ye Yun asked first, her smiling tone carrying a subtle sense of oppression.

Xun Xiangbin knew he had lost his composure, so he quickly apologized with a smile: "Nothing, I just thought this kid looked familiar, he looks a bit like an old friend..."

Thinking of what Ye Yun said beside the stinky ditch at noon, he couldn't help but purse his lips.

“There are many people in this world who look alike.”

Ye Yun sneered, and her eyes were filled with a hint of sarcasm: "Mr. Xun has been to the countryside before, not far from us, maybe he is in the team of my distant relative. You think this child looks familiar, maybe he is the child of someone you know, don't you think so?"

“Yes, yes…”

Xun Xiangbin didn’t know whether he understood what Ye Yun said, he just said yes.

This child looks a lot like the Luo family, vaguely... a bit like him. No, he must have seen it wrong.

"By the way, Director Ye, I caught the old cat for you."

Xun Xiangbin seemed to have just remembered the purpose of his visit tonight, and quickly picked up the cardboard box in his hand and handed it to Ye Yun.

He also added: "This old cat had been looking for kittens for a whole day and was so tired that he had no strength left. When I stuffed him into the box, he didn't resist at all. I was riding a 28-inch bicycle and it was hard to carry him. I was afraid he would run away, so I sealed the box with tape and poked a few holes to let him breathe."

"To be on the safe side, you should wait until you are inside the house and close the door before letting it out."

At this point, he added, "Old cats are not easy to raise. They are not as easy to recognize as young cats. You should lock it in the house for a few days first, let it get familiar with the environment, let it know that this is its new home, and then you keep feeding it, and it will naturally recognize you as its owner."

"Will it bite?"

A childish voice sounded. It was Xiao Hai who had been silent all along.

Ye Yun couldn't help but lower her eyes.

Xiao Hai still held her hand tightly, frowning and showing a trace of worry, and said, "Uncle Chen said that cats with bad tempers will bite people, Aunt Yun, I don't want you to get hurt."

Ye Yun felt a little warm in her heart, "You also said that Uncle Chen was talking about cats with bad tempers."

She gently touched the top of Xiao Hai's head and glanced at the cardboard box, "Do you want to help Aunt Yun take it back?"

Xiao Hai looked at his own hands, then at the cardboard box in Xun Xiangbin's hand. A look of deep embarrassment emerged between his childish eyebrows.

The carton was for wine, and it was a little too big for his little arms to hold.

"Director Ye, I'll take you in."

Xun Xiangbin spoke.

He saw that Ye Yun was in poor health and had a child with her, so it was only right for him to send a pregnant woman and a child in.

"No."

Ye Yun refused flatly.

She winked at the security guard next to her, and the security guard immediately stepped forward and took the cardboard from Xun Xiangbin.

Ye Yun lowered her eyes, raised her hand and gently touched Xiao Hai's head, and said meaningfully to comfort him: "Our Xiao Hai is still young, and for the time being, he can't bear such a heavy burden."

Xiao Hai seemed to understand, but he still nodded obediently:

"Whatever Aunt Yun says is right."

Ye Yun couldn't help but laugh.

She withdrew her gaze from the child, raised her eyes, looked at Chen Zhenxing meaningfully, then turned and left, holding the child's hand.

The security guard followed her holding the cardboard box.

Standing there, Xun Xiangbin kept staring at the direction where Ye Yun and the child left.

For some reason, his attention was inexplicably attracted to the child brought by Ye Yun. He followed the child involuntarily, and even felt a little reluctant in his heart.

This emotion made him panic.

The child in front seemed to notice his gaze. Being led by Ye Yun, he turned around and looked at him.

This look made Xun Xiangbin's expression freeze.

In the dim light, he seemed to see an old friend in his memory, and his face suddenly turned pale.

"How is this possible..."

…

"You're back?"

The door curtain was lifted, and Gu Yingying saw Ye Yun and Xiao Hai coming back, and greeted them indifferently.

The security guard followed him into the house.

Putting the cardboard box next to the kittens' box near the stove, the security guard said hello and left. Before leaving, Ye Yun enthusiastically handed him a braised chicken leg.

Maybe it was because the noise was a bit too loud.

The kittens that were sleeping soundly together suddenly cried out in discomfort, and the others also started whimpering as if they were frightened.

Now, the originally quiet cardboard box immediately began to make loud flapping sounds.

“Meow…”

As if hearing the cry of the kittens, the old cat in the cardboard box lost its composure and let out a cry full of resentment.

It scratched the carton with its claws, leaving a hole in the tape seal.

Whoosh~

A raccoon head popped out.
