Chapter 18 Chapter 18 The children were very happy and praised...
The children walked forward happily, holding the boxes.
Shen Xiao and Xu Zhi were worried about the two children running around by themselves, so they had no choice but to leave with them.
There were a lot of people at the garden party, and the Lu family's stall was very eye-catching, but the person accompanying Lu Zhi was a strange Alpha. By standards, he was extremely handsome, and his background and conversation seemed to be very impressive.
They collected a stack of amusement tickets that could be redeemed for the prize placed on top.
Xu Zhi only had time to take a quick look before being dragged away by her daughter to help her sell cookies.
Among a large number of overly beautiful snacks, some unattractive food suddenly appeared.
The children had long been ordered by their parents not to eat too many sweets and to be polite and clean in front of other people's stalls.
But it doesn’t matter if it’s the cookies from the mobile stalls. It’s that kind of ugly food, and there’s no psychological burden to eat it in an ungraceful way.
Moreover, the cookies are baked super soft and crispy, and taste like various fruits. They are simply the Quasimodo of the cookie world.
At this kind of gathering where rare items are valuable, coupled with the children's strong curiosity, the cookies were sold out in no time and exchanged for colorful amusement tickets.
The two little girls screamed with joy and spun around hand in hand like little groundhogs.
They took their parents to the place where they redeemed the amusement tickets. One of them hesitated for a long time and exchanged for a bubble gun, and the other exchanged for a golden crown and a fairy wand. Then they trotted all the way to find Jin Man.
"For uncle!"
A child who values win-win cooperation so much will naturally gain the support of his parents.
Jin Man was very surprised that something that no one wanted could make a child happy. While he was stunned, he couldn't help but smile as he touched the things in his pocket.
He tentatively pinched the two children's smooth cheeks, and his rough fingers tickled the little girls so much that they couldn't stop laughing.
Not only were the two children patted on the head, they were also rewarded by their uncle by being lifted up high, and received two bottles of strawberry milk made by their uncle, with blue whale stickers on them.
Jin Man was originally made for Lu Zhi, and there was no chance to take it out. He might not like it even if he took it out, and he doesn't like to drink it because it's sweet. It's just right for coaxing children.
Now, the children were even happier and didn’t know what to do.
When I was dancing and showing off to others, a little kid wearing a brown bear apron suddenly came over.
There are people in kindergarten who are very popular with teachers and children, and Lu Zhi is one of them. However, Xu Zhi and Shen Xiao's daughters, one is timid and the other is a lone wolf, don't even know Lu Zhi.
"Excuse me, where did the cookies you just sold come from?"
Lu Zhi's head was covered with sweat. He was holding the big rooster stuffed animal that he had exchanged for the amusement ticket. It was really huge and he could only hold it with difficulty.
He had a tense face and looked calm, but when he saw the strawberry milk with a whale sticker on it in the little girl's hand, his eyes suddenly turned red and his mouth opened slightly, looking shocked and unbelievable.
"The biscuits were given by my uncle! And this one too, just take a look at it. I don't want to share any with you."
"I'm not drinking!"
The little girl proudly hid the bottle behind her back and made a face: "You are a little liar, you lied."
Lu Zhi's arms around the doll tightened, his tone filled with a hint of stubbornness and unwillingness: "Nonsense, I didn't!"
The two children had a dispute and neither of them was willing to give in, but the little girl had a companion, and good friends helped good friends, so she easily pushed Lu Zhi, who was holding the doll, to the ground.
Lu Zhi's big rooster doll had its tail stained. He gritted his teeth, stood up quickly, and pushed the little girl hard.
The little girl was like a healthy calf and was not pushed down at all. She pushed him back with her backhand. At this moment, Lu Zhi suddenly felt a gaze from behind him and he turned around abruptly.
There are a lot of bubbles floating in the sky.
Dad was standing not far away, holding a few blue balloons in his hands, carrying his backpack and small water bottle.
He stood there in a daze, lowering his head and saying nothing. But his father, who was always tolerant and had no temper, ignored the crowd and squatted down, forcing him to look up and asked him: "Lu Zhi, why did you push the child?"
Lu Zhi's throat seemed to be blocked by something, and his heartbeat quickened. He lowered his head, not daring to look into Jin Man's eyes again. His fingers tightly grasped the big doll, and an indescribable guilt and sadness surged in his heart.
He bit his lip tightly and said nothing. The little girl, on the other hand, didn't show any fear at all and hung on Xu Zhi's hand. She leaned over to see if he was about to cry, then looked at Jin Man and said, "Uncle, I pushed him too. I'm sorry."
Jin Man didn't know the whole story. It was normal for children to have conflicts with each other.
He rubbed the little girl's fluffy head comfortingly. The little girl giggled, hung on his arm, put her little face against his, and reached out to pat the blue balloon he was holding.
Lu Zhi's eyes widened. Such beautiful eyes, but one could clearly see shock and loss. However, he was not patted on the head. Instead, his father distanced himself from him and said to him in a very serious and unfamiliar tone: "Xiaozhi, you have to apologize too."
Lu Zhi was stunned for a moment, then turned around. His tone was very calm, and his movements were restrained and elegant, but his eyes were not keeping up. Two small drops of water fell on the floor with a plop.
"sorry."
Lu Zhi had a blank expression on his face and red eyes. He held the big rooster doll and stared at Jin Man.
But the little girl was too clingy. She hugged Jin Man's thighs and begged him to hold her to reach the white windmill above her head.
Jin Man picked her up, and the little girl raised the bubble gun. A gust of wind made the white windmill spin, and she looked so happy that she looked like a little sunflower.
Lu Zhian watched quietly. Seeing his father smiling so gently at others, a sour feeling suddenly surged in his heart, as if he had drunk a big sip of lemon juice, so sour that his eyes swelled.
He lowered his head, trying to drive away the uncomfortable feeling, but it was no use. He wanted to call Dad, but the words turned into an even harder silence when they reached his lips.
"Uncle, he ran away!"
Jin Man was stunned for a moment. He turned around and saw Lu Zhi running away with the doll in his arms. Halfway through the run, he was tripped by the doll, but he stood up and continued running.
His smile gradually faded. He put the little girl down, patted her head, and whispered, "Go play."
Then he walked quickly along the road towards Lu Zhi, but there were so many parents and children that he couldn't find Lu Zhi for a while.
Jin Man felt very uncomfortable, but he couldn't explain why. The feeling of loss was like a very small and thin chisel, which kept hitting him when he felt unhappy.
When he saw Lu Zhi stumble heavily to the ground, he wanted to pick him up quickly.
Sometimes I feel like I'm too soft-hearted, but whether it's short-sightedness or a lack of dignity, I just instinctively don't want my children to be hurt like that.
Having experienced so many setbacks in his childhood did not make him an outstanding person. Instead, he suffered more and looked more ordinary.
He walked through the crowd but couldn't find Lu Zhi. The child must have hidden himself and he couldn't find him no matter how hard he looked.
He had no choice but to call Lu Yanlin.
Lu Yanlin asked what happened and after listening, he said: "I know, don't worry."
Having said that, safety is most likely not a problem. Instead of running around for the rest of the time, it’s better to wait where you are.
Jin Man simply sat on the bench next to the charity stall, where there was a piece of sunflower dessert.
A little kid stood on tiptoe and stuck his head out to exchange for an amusement ticket.
Jin Man was stunned for a moment, packed the snacks and handed them to the child. He took the amusement ticket, thinking that Lu Zhi would really want it, folded it and gently put it in his shirt pocket.
He didn't have to wait long. A tall, handsome man in a suit and tie soon appeared, holding a yellow rooster doll in his hand. He said in a calm and composed tone, "Lu Zhi has gone back. I'll send him to live with his grandmother for a while."
Jin Man didn't understand why it was so sudden, but Lu Yanlin had always been a very principled person, and he probably had his own reasons for doing this.
Thinking this way, I felt an indescribable disappointment.
He couldn't change Lu Yanlin's mind, and if he wanted to comfort her, Lu Zhi probably didn't need it.
Rather than saying that Lu Zhi was a child raised by him and Lu Yanlin together, it would be better to say that the child was more like a child of the Lu family.
Jin Man moved his lips but said nothing. His lips were very pale, his ears were thin, and when his face had no expression, he looked most like an Alpha.
But he has never been youthful and energetic, and has always been non-aggressive.
Lu Yanlin didn't think he was perfect, but after looking at him for a long time, he felt very fond of him. This somewhat angry look also made him look at him for a while. He walked closer, lowered his eyes, and suddenly said lightly: "It seems that someone likes you very much."
Jin Man was a little surprised and looked up at him: "What?"
Alpha's eyes were very black, pure and beautiful in color. He stared at Lu Yanlin blankly, looking a little at a loss.
He has always been a good-tempered and righteous person, and many people like to get along with him, but after the mansion was robbed, he has not made any new friends.
Lu Yanlin slowly lowered his eyelashes and smiled lightly. He calmly brushed off the ribbon on his shoulders and said gently, "Your Omega friend seems to be unable to control his pheromones."
Jin Man subconsciously lifted up the clothes and smelled them, and sure enough, he smelled a very light fruity scent. He didn't know when it was acquired.
He reached out and patted it, but the smell wouldn't go away at all. It lingered around him until he got on the bus home.
Lu Yanlin didn't seem to mind. He didn't lose his temper, nor was he angry. He handled his work calmly and indifferently, as if the reminder just now was just out of good intentions.
There was no displeasure or curiosity towards the Omega who left the pheromone.
But, would you react like this when facing someone you like?
Jin Man sat at the other end of the car, looking at the scenery passing by outside the window. He wondered if this was another hint from fate.
Neither Lu Zhi nor Lu Yanlin needed him.
He remembered the kite with its string cut in his childhood. Jin Man felt neither sad nor heartbroken when it flew away.
Instead, I feel that it would be better if it could fly a little higher and a little farther, just like a real bird, always circling high in the sky and not falling into the ditch.
