Chapter 67 Woodcarving



well.

Lin Yian tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.

Half an hour later.

Still can’t sleep!

Lin Yian sat up angrily, lit the oil lamp, opened the kang cabinet and took out the gift that Lin Jiancheng had handed over.

Don’t think about it anymore. Maybe one day I’ll let it slip.

"It's quite light. I wonder what's inside it?"

Lin Yian first opened the relatively small wooden box. There was nothing else in the box except a wood carving and a piece of paper.

"hedgehog?"

Lin Yian picked up the hedgehog wood carving from the box. It was well carved and looked lifelike.

But what is the meaning of giving this?

Lin Yian remembers that when she was in school, the girls around her received dolls such as rabbits, bears, or their zodiac signs on their birthdays or anniversaries.

It’s really creative.

“It’s pretty cute.”

Lin Yian placed the wood carving in his hand on the kang cabinet and opened the note in the box.

On the kang cabinet were already placed the scarf and hat knitted for her by Fan Zhu, the mirror bought for her by Lin Anguo, the comb bought for her by Lin Jiancheng today, and a paper box containing vanishing cream and hairpins bought by Lin Jiancheng.

The wood carvings don't seem so out of place when put in there.

On the note were four words written in a swift and graceful handwriting: "Happy Birthday."

"It's a greeting card. No wonder you think my handwriting is ugly."

Don’t think she didn’t see Ji Zebai’s expression when he saw the test paper she made, but having good handwriting is really a plus.

At least Lin Yian's initial resentment towards Ji Zebai for investigating her had dissipated a little.

Even if there was a reason for it, Lin Yian still felt somewhat disgusted with this behavior.

So only a trace of it dissipated.

Lin Yian originally wanted to fold the note and put it back in the box, but the light shining on the note highlighted some extra words on the back.

There is another side?

Lin Yian turned the note over and found only one word on it: "Change."

What to change?

This is to remind myself to remember to give him a gift in return.

Lin Yian turned the note in his hand over and over again, and even leaned in to smell it to see if there was any smell of medicine or something.

After I smelled it, I wanted to slap myself. What was I thinking?

I've really lost my mind.

Lin Yian folded the note and stuffed it back into the box, which just happened to serve as a base for the wood sculpture.

Lin Yian moved to another pocket and asked her to see what was there.

Tsk, I have to ask big brother someday if he knows when Ji Zebai’s birthday is, and then I’ll give him a gift in return.

This is the first time I've seen someone asking for a return gift.

You have to ask this person too.

"Report!"

"Enter."

Ji Zebai opened the door and walked in: "Chief."

"Zebai is back, sit down."

Ji Zebai sat on the chair as he was told.

Tao Hanyi took out his precious teacup and made two cups of tea: "How about Jiancheng after returning home?"

"It's pretty good. His family understands his work, and the Tong'an County Police Department has already handed it over. It's just that his injuries are a bit troublesome, and he needs to take care of himself."

Tao Hanyi knew how serious Lin Jiancheng's injuries were, and it could be said that it was already very good that he could survive.

"That's good. The reward for the two wanted criminals you captured this time is already going through the process and should be sent to that kid before the New Year. I think your and Fang Chi's injuries are almost healed."

"It's up to you if you think it's good."

Tao Hanyi almost threw the cup in his hand directly at the head of this brat who didn't take his life seriously.

If you don't take your life seriously, what do you mean by "it's fine as long as he feels good"?

"You little brat, you were injured and hospitalized in Beijing this time, and you didn't even come home. Your dad even called me."

The faint smile on Ji Zebai's face faded a little, and there was a hint of coldness in the depths of his eyes.

"I told my mom that I wasn't seriously injured. And I'm almost healed now. If you don't believe me, I'll take it off and show you."

The tea in Tao Hanyi's hand almost spilled all over his pants.

"Get lost, you just want to cause trouble for me."

Tao Hanyi still didn't intend to believe what this kid said, so he took him to the military doctor for further examination.

Ji Zebai and Fang Chi were surrounded by several military doctors who examined them carefully from head to toe. Then they came to the conclusion that the injuries of the two comrades were basically healed and they just needed to rest well and change the dressings regularly.

Tao Hanyi took the two boys back to his office.

"Commander, you couldn't have called us back in a hurry just to check our wounds, right?"

Fang Chi almost got groped just now. Those military doctors looked at him like an animal, and it felt like they could use knives to dissect him in the next second.

The relief on Tao Hanyi's face disappeared completely, and he took out a document from a locked drawer and handed it to the two of them.

"Take a look at this first."
