The next day.

Qin Bai was awakened by the laughter outside.

"Wow, Aunt Cheng is amazing! This dish smells so good."

Cheng Jing's eyes narrowed as she smiled.

"Didn't I tell you? You should call me Grandma Cheng."

"Aunt Cheng isn't that old; she looks to be only in her early thirties."

"It's not as exaggerated as you say. I'm much older than your sister."

"No, I think you all look equally beautiful."

Qin Bai leaned against the door, arms crossed, watching the three people in the kitchen.

Cheng Jing stood in the middle, with the two little ones standing on either side to help.

One sugar-coated bullet after another was thrown at this mother, who was clearly already stunned.

As I watched...

Qin Bai felt a stinging sensation in the corners of his eyes.

He learned these survival skills at a very young age.

Whenever the elderly people at the supermarket gave him waste paper, he would pull them aside and praise them for a long time until they were all smiles, only then would he calm down.

Only in this way could he ensure that these people's kindness would come to him again next time.

The visuals are remarkably similar to those from over a decade ago.

But Qin Bai didn't go over to tell them they didn't have to do that, and that they could treat this place as their other home.

Only in this way can they feel at ease living here.

Time will allow the two little ones to lower their guard.

When Wen Si turned around and saw Qin Bai, she immediately covered her mouth.

Then, he cautiously walked over and asked, "Brother Qin Bai, did we disturb your rest?"

"Yes, so tell me, how should I punish you?" Qin Bai squatted down and patted her head.

"I...I was wrong, next time..."

How about I punish you by making you each eat an extra bowl of rice for a while?

Wen Si stared at his gentle smile for a few seconds, then nodded vigorously.

Kindness is especially sensitive to children like her who live on the margins of society.

She can immediately distinguish between good and bad people.

Cheng Jing came out of the kitchen carrying dishes.

"Xiaobai, hurry up and wash up, we need to take them to school soon."

Xu Mingyuan quickly waved his hand and said, "No need, I've already checked the bus routes here, we can go by ourselves."

Cheng Jing maintained a smile on her face, but a slight pain lingered in her heart.

Qin Bai was like that when he was young, so sensible that it broke your heart.

Qin Bai smiled and said, "I'm just dropping you off at school because it's on my way; I also need to go to the company."

"There's no need for that trouble, we really..."

"Alright, alright, let's go eat, or I'll be late for work."

Without saying a word, Qin Bai pressed the two little ones into their seats.

"Whoever doesn't finish their rice in their bowl today can't go to school, understand?"

"Okay," they both agreed in unison.

During the meal, Cheng Jing kept putting food into their bowls, otherwise they would just eat in silence and not even look at the food in front of them.

After they finished eating, Xu Mingyuan first went to the kitchen to clean up the trash, and then picked up his schoolbag and pulled Wen Si outside.

Cheng Jing and Qin Bai exchanged a helpless glance, and both chose not to stop them.

After getting on the bus, the brother and sister sat in the back.

Qin Bai smiled as he looked at Wen Si's hesitant expression.

"Are you trying to ask about your sister's situation?"

"Is that alright? Isn't it a bit too much trouble?"

Qin Bai took out his phone and handed it over.

“Your sister sent me photos this morning and asked about your situation. Take a look.”

Wen Si took the photo as if it were a treasure and looked at the older sister in the photo carefully.

In the pristine white room, Ling Xiangxue lay on the hospital bed, a familiar smile on her face.

"Now you can rest assured."

"Yes, thank you, Brother Qin Bai."

"You should be able to video chat with her when you get back from school tonight."

"Really?" Wen Si happily placed her little hands in front of her chest.

"Of course, so you guys need to do your best today so you can show off in the video."

"good."

The car slowly started moving and headed towards the school.

As Qin Bai passed by the flower shop, he glanced at the tightly locked roller shutter and suddenly felt nostalgic for the time he spent eating steamed buns there.

Hopefully, the girl who can eat several steamed buns will be back in business soon.

Upon arriving at the school gate, Qin Bai led the two inside.

Some of the classmates who knew him greeted him with surprise.

I always see the brother and sister coming to school by themselves, so why did they get out of a luxury car today?

Upon reaching the railing, Qin Bai squatted down and straightened Wen Si's clothes.

"Listen to your teachers at school, and if anyone bullies you, remember to go to your older brother."

"If he can't solve it either, then just bear with it for now and tell me when you get home."

"I'll stand up for you, understand?"

Wensi's rosy cheeks were filled with emotion; it was the first time someone had told her these things.

Qin Bai turned to Xu Mingyuan and said, "Take good care of your sister. I'll come pick you up tonight. We'll stay in the same spot."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Qin Bai."

"Go to school."

After watching the brother and sister go inside, Qin Bai drove away.

When he arrived at the company, Fei Yangyang was already waiting for him in the office.

"Qin, why did you call me over so early? I drank so much last night, my head is still spinning."
