Chapter 51 Chapter 51 Jin Man doesn’t want to talk more…
Jin Man didn't want to talk any more, and he was speechless facing Lu Zhi. He was about to leave with the child in his arms, but Lu Yanlin followed him: "I'll take you back."
Jin Man thought about it and refused: "No thanks."
Regarding the transfer, he didn't want to ask Lu Yanlin about his choice. They could always easily enter other people's world and leave easily. The one who had no right to choose was Jin Man.
"You don't have a child safety seat in your car. That's inconvenient."
"It's nothing."
Jin Man opened his second-hand Wuling, stuffed the child into the passenger seat, fastened the seat belt, and there was a bag of candied hawthorns on the back seat, which he had promised to buy for Jin Duoduo after school.
Lu Yanlin watched Jin Man arrange the children and hail a taxi with an expressionless face.
Jin Man turned the steering wheel with one hand and saw Lu Yanlin staring at him, her hair ruffled by the wind.
He opened his mouth but said nothing in the end. He drove past him and the person in the rearview mirror gradually became smaller.
Jin Duoduo chattered about kindergarten, and he found that Alpha hadn't responded to him for a long time.
The car window opened slightly, and Jin Man took a few puffs from a cigarette between his lips. It was the first time Jin Duoduo had seen Jin Man smoking, and he coughed uncomfortably. A flicker of annoyance and melancholy flashed across Jin Man's eyes, but without hesitation, he extinguished the cigarette in the wind.
When he woke up the next day, Jin Duoduo found that he had cleared a wall in his house, with his domineering black apple pasted in the middle.
He jumped down with a wow, put his hands on his hips and watched for a while, and decided to draw one every day.
But kindergarten teachers don’t arrange handicraft activities every day, and they have classes this afternoon.
The teacher taught everyone how to wash hands, wash face, and wring out towels.
Jin Duoduo volunteered and got a small red flower made from handmade paper-cut, which he always put under his pillow when he slept.
He didn't see Lu Zhi in class today, but when school was over, Lu Zhi appeared again, standing behind the children queuing to go home, just like yesterday, ignoring everyone.
Jin Duoduo had no time to care about the children. As soon as Alpha appeared, he jumped up excitedly, his heart and eyes full of him.
"Tanghulu!"
He quickly tore open the candy wrapper and couldn't wait to eat it.
The children went home one after another and waved goodbye to him. Little Jin Duoduo was puzzled to find that they were still there.
He looked up and found Manman looking inside the gate.
"Manman goes home."
Jin Man picked him up.
At that time, they were about to leave; later, he and Lu Zhi sat together in the guard room, watching cartoons on Jin Man’s mobile phone.
The person who came to pick up Lu Zhi was late, and he looked very pitiful as he was all alone.
Jin Duoduo accepted this explanation with a confused look.
Lu Yanlin did not show up, and the driver who picked up Lu Zhi from school was ten minutes late.
Lu Zhi stood up on his own initiative, insisted on seeing Jin Man off to the car, and greeted Jin Duoduo. When he was showing off his little red flower, his eyes suddenly fixed and he fell silent as if angry.
His back was straight, his head lowered, and after a moment he looked up with a calm smile on his face: "I asked Dad to buy a set of child seats for you."
Jin Duoduo thought: How strange, I clearly haven’t talked to him.
"I don't want it."
"Of course you do. You have to take the bus every day. Safety is very important. Teacher Yang also told us about it when we were leaving school."
Jin Duoduo muttered, "You're obviously not here."
Lu Zhi's smile faded and he looked at him with cold eyes. Suddenly, his head was rubbed and his expression froze.
"Go back. Those really nice seats won't fit in my car. I've already bought one."
Jin Man's face was calm and his words were half true and half false. He would eventually let go of the entanglements and hesitations of the past.
The Lu family can do much more than he can, and Lu Zhi is not a child who can be measured by ordinary people's thinking.
He did not cry because of Jin Man's departure, nor did he collapse because of his broken family, which shows that Lu Zhi understood and accepted everything.
In the past, Jin Man did not learn to respect the child well, but now he is willing to give him more tolerance and respect.
Humans are animals that live facing the sun.
It is instinctive to yearn for a bright and beautiful world full of flowers. Lu Yanlin is like that light, shining even brighter in the brighter place. She is the sunflower that will never fade in Lu Zhi's heart.
No one will hug a person who has nothing and is covered in mud.
"Manman go home, go home."
Jin Duoduo tugged at his sleeve, and Grandpa said he would make braised pork buns and sweet potato rice when he got home today.
Jin Man carried him into the car. The driver accompanied the young master and watched the broken Wuling drive away.
In the evening, the old man really made braised pork buns and a large table of dishes. Several comrades-in-arms came to Zhou Yu's house. These people probably haven't retired yet and they have a military smell on them.
Jin Man went into the kitchen to help.
There was a burst of hot steam coming from the stove. He was bending over to sweep the water. His apron was tied neatly at the back of his waist, swaying with his movements, scratching an inexplicable itch in his heart.
Yue Wei crossed his arms, and his thick eyelashes cast a butterfly-like shadow under the light.
His eyes no longer had that hunting light, nor were they filled with heavy desire. They were as quiet as if he was appreciating a painting.
Home is something both concrete and abstract.
From birth to death, a person is born and learns to walk. His life is consumed like running water in countless sufferings, getting closer to death day by day. The closer he is to the abyss, the more he experiences the extreme coldness of the world and the more he longs for warmth.
When his comrades came to visit Zhou Yu and condemned him for not saying a word when the accident happened.
After the burly men finished their drinks, they linked their arms around each other's shoulders, crying and laughing.
Jin Man and the children finished their meal and did not rush to join the drinking party. He held Jin Duoduo in his arms, lying on a rocking chair not far away, looking at the stars in the sky.
Zhou Yu noticed that Yue Wei's gaze had shifted, but he did not miss the direction of his gaze.
He smiled, and draped his long arm lazily over Yue Wei's shoulders: "When will the promotion be?"
Yue Wei turned around and said, "After the New Year."
"Have you made your plans?"
"Well, if I don't change my job, no matter how hard I try, it will all be over. After changing my job, I still have a chance to climb up."
"That's fine. I can't do those office jobs. You are well educated and can do it better than me."
Yue Wei hummed, then suddenly said something without context: "I suddenly want to get married."
Zhou Yu knew about the mess he had done and looked at him as if he had seen a ghost.
Yue Wei: "Tell me, if I were imprisoned, would Jin Man help me as desperately as he helped you?"
Zhou Yu looked at him in mockery, and Yue Wei also found it funny. He knew the answer and just wanted to ask.
Jin Man didn't look at him with that warm gaze.
His heart was beating fast, conflicted and cold.
There is no point in forcing or forcing others. He wants a unique relationship without any flaws or retreats.
Zhou Yu’s matter has come to an end, and Yue Wei and his comrades who have taken leave are also about to return to the team.
The station was still the same station. Yue Wei bought a ticket and went through security before entering the station. Suddenly, his eyes caught a glimpse of a figure.
He walked over to see Jin Man, who was carrying a bag of food and water and looking around. He took the initiative to walk over and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
The other teammates had already passed security. As they gestured through a glass door, Jin Man waved and shoved his belongings toward Yue Wei. "Zhou Yu said you were leaving at ten o'clock. I thought it was still early, so I came over to see you off."
No one in the world loves matchmaking more than Zhou Yu.
What is this?
Yue Wei felt irritated, his suppressed thoughts swelling uncontrollably. He grabbed Jin Man's arm, his eyes as deep as the sea, dangerous and surging: "Are you always so nice to others?"
Jin Man sensed the danger and nodded instinctively.
Yue Wei's concentrated sharpness and malice were defeated by his frank and blank gaze, and he was almost laughing at himself.
Zhou Yu was really good at pushing him, making him lose his temper: "Okay, I'll ask directly, Jin Man, do you like me? Can I pursue you?"
Jin Man paused for a moment and shook his head calmly: "Sorry."
Yue Wei had his own pride. He was slightly stunned, unwilling to let his pride be shattered again: "Why?"
Jin Man's answer was a little slow this time. He must have thought carefully: "I can't get hard with Alpha."
Just because he can't smell Omega's pheromones doesn't mean he can be aroused by Alpha; it's innate.
Yue Wei was silent for a long time this time, with a malicious look in his eyes.
He lowered his head and kissed Jin Man on the face, speaking in a harsh tone, but his words were soft: "Stinky Alpha, forget it."
Yue Wei walked with his long legs, decisive and fast as the wind. On the way back, Jin Man felt something strange. He touched his cheek, unable to explain what he felt.
It seemed like she was envious, envious of that kind of open love, and envious of his carefree withdrawal.
At that moment, he even felt a little fond of Yue Wei, but Jin Man knew that kind of fondness was a joke, a bit of a hero complex, a role model. Perhaps a little fondness, a little love, could build a tower of sand and wear away stone with water, but it was only a little, like raindrops dripping from the eaves, blown away by the wind without a trace.
A new playground was built in the kindergarten, and many children's activity facilities were added. The chef and the principal were replaced, and several new teachers came.
These things happened little by little without causing any waves.
In the fourth week of Jin Duoduo's school, there was a new child in the class. Lu Zhi sat among the children with an expressionless face, clapping and doing the finger dance with the teacher.
One child said: "You dance like a zombie."
Lu Zhi ignored him. When he was queuing for water, he found that his water cup was taken by another child by mistake.
This kind of stupid thing would have been impossible in the past. Lu Zhi didn't drink a sip of water in the morning, and his throat was dry and sore at noon and he couldn't sleep.
He was the easiest child to take care of, so the teacher naturally didn't notice.
Lu Zhi turned over, hugged the whale doll and buried his face in it. The brand new fresh air conditioner in the room was buzzing, but it couldn't cover up the sounds of him turning over, talking in his sleep, and yawning. After a while, someone poked his shoulder.
He raised his head, and a nasty little round face came over, like a little dog wagging its tail, and said in a tangled and expectant tone: "Do you want to go to the toilet?"
Jin Duoduo was naughty today, and Teacher Li was mean to him, so he didn't dare to raise his hand.
But Lu Zhi was very well behaved, so Teacher Li rewarded him with a little red flower today. Jin Duoduo was very envious, because people with little red flowers would definitely not be scolded when going to the toilet.
Lu Zhi stared at him for a while, trying to read the subconscious meaning behind his face, but he failed.
He frowned and asked, "What were you doing when the teacher asked us to go to the bathroom?"
Oh my god, how could a five-year-old still question?
Jin Duoduo felt embarrassed, ashamed, and angry. He lay down with his pillow in his arms and said in a tangled manner: "Huh, if you don't want to go, forget it."
He tossed and turned in bed, his face flushed red, and he realized in despair that he might be about to wet the bed.
"Teacher, I want to go to the bathroom."
Jin Duoduo quickly threw off the quilt and followed Lu Zhi like a little tail. The teacher was probably tired and didn't care about how the two children went out.
As soon as Jin Duoduo went out, he ran to the toilet. After running a few steps, he suddenly stopped moving.
After a while, Lu Zhi came in quietly with an expressionless face, and left with his schoolbag in his hand with an expressionless face.
When Teacher Li couldn't help but go to take a look, Lu Zhi came back with Jin Duoduo, whose face was red and obviously she had been crying.
"What's wrong?"
Teacher Li asked gently and found that the two children were wearing the same blue whale pants, which seemed to be different from what Duoduo was wearing just now.
