Chapter 626 Hello, Auntie
Yan Zixi could sense the two children whispering to each other and said cautiously, "Since your friends are here, you should hurry back home. There are still a lot of human traffickers around."
She turned and entered the dilapidated neighborhood.
Yiyi's heart tightened, and she asked anxiously, "Auntie, can we go to your house to rest for a while?"
Yan Zixi paused, wondering, "Why?"
Yiyi rolled her eyes and quickly took off her Little Genius phone watch. "That girl just stole my phone watch, and we're separated from our family. Can you let us go to your house to make a phone call? We're so thirsty from running... Oh, and don't worry about me stealing anything. I can give you money. My name is Yan—"
Yan Zixi: "Come on, you don't need to pay. Our family is very poor, and you can't take anything even if you want."
Yan Laiyi choked and swallowed his self-introduction.
So cold.
But she didn't hate it.
Because it seems like a living mother.
Yan Laiyi was a little delighted, and followed with small steps. He reached out to grab Yan Zixi's hand, hesitated for a moment, and then grabbed the corner of his clothes and quietly pressed against her.
Nice gentle laundry detergent scent.
She laughed secretly.
Gu Huai: "..."
For some reason, he felt that Yan Laiyi was more perverted than him.
They turned left and right and came to the innermost building.
The first floor is where Yan Zixi lives.
Yan Zixi opened the door and saw some junk piled at the entrance.
But it is neatly placed and not dirty at all.
Xiao Yiyi wanted to take off her shoes.
Yan Zixi said calmly, "Please wear your own shoes. There are no shoes for guests here."
A somewhat weak voice came from the inner room: "Xi, did you bring your friends back?"
Yan Zixi said calmly, "I'm back. I found two lost children. They called their families and waited for them to come pick them up before leaving."
Yan Laiyi leaned out to take a look.
There was a frail old woman on the bed.
The old woman looked to be in her seventies and opened her eyes drowsily to look at her.
She was worried: "Hello, grandma, are you sick?"
The old lady's face was pale, and she couldn't even see Yan Laiyi's face clearly: "Child...stay away from me, or you won't be infected with this disease."
Yan Zixi closed the door to his grandmother's room. "She has a viral stomach flu, which is contagious. Don't get infected, or you'll have to come to us again."
Seeing her so indifferent, Yan Laiyi felt a little embarrassed: "No, Auntie, we are not that kind of people. It's just that I think the old lady looks a little too pale. My mother told me that if the stomach flu is not treated properly, it may be life-threatening. Why don't we take her to the hospital?"
Hearing this, the old lady said with difficulty: "Don't send me to the hospital, I will be fine after taking some medicine..."
Yan Laiyi opened his mouth and wanted to persuade him.
Gu Huai pulled her aside and said, "Don't talk for now. They must be the only two people in their family who depend on each other. One is blind and the other is elderly. There are so many waste items here. It's obvious that the elderly person makes a living by selling waste. A trip to the hospital can easily cost hundreds of yuan. She's so old, it might cost even more."
Yan Laiyi nodded: "But I can pay."
Gu Huai frowned: "You can't just give it to someone casually just because you have money. This will easily insult their dignity."
Yan Zixi felt that the two children were still whispering, and frowned and said, "You two should sit on the sofa. The phone is next to the sofa."
It's still an old-fashioned tone-dial phone.
Gu Huai said, "I'll fight."
He had to buy time and let their driver come slowly.
The driver could understand his code words.
Yan Laiyi looked around the small but cozy environment and looked at Yan Zixi curiously: "Auntie, what do you do for a living? It must be hard for you to be blind."
Yan Zixi had no expression on his face and sat at a distance. "It's okay, I'm used to it. I do blind massaging."
Yan Laiyi nodded, feeling the atmosphere was a bit strange. "Excuse me, may I ask your name? You look so much like my mother, except for your different voices."
Yan Zixi frowned warily: "Even if I told you my name, I am not your mother. Your mother has passed away. You should just live your new life."
Yan Laiyi suddenly realized and lowered his head in disappointment: "Then let me introduce myself. My name is——"
Yan Zixi: "Aren't you guys finished your call yet?"
Gu Huai gave her an awkward look and put down the phone: "The driver said he would pick us up in thirty minutes."
Yan Zixi raised his eyebrows. "Your family is quite wealthy, and your parents even provided you with a driver. But why are two rich kids here?"
Yan Laiyi chuckled foolishly: "Because I saw you by the river that day, it was last night, I was still nearby! You didn't notice me, did you?"
Yan Zixi said calmly, "I didn't notice. After all, I'm blind."
Yan Laiyi: "..."
Her breath was blocked, and she lowered her head in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, Auntie, I don't mean anything else, I just want to say a few more words to you."
Then, she regained her energy: "By the way, do you know the Yan family and the Gu family?!"
Yan Zixi's face darkened: "I don't know him."
Yan Laiyi's smile froze on his face. He looked at Gu Huai sadly and whispered, "Doesn't Auntie like me? She seems to really hate me."
Gu Huai had a dark face and was very unhappy.
Everyone can see Yan Zixi's vigilance.
He patted the back of her hand: "Auntie is just being cautious. After all, you are blind. You are asking a bit too much."
Yan Laiyi nodded and quickly apologized to Yan Zixi in a baby voice: "I'm sorry, Auntie. I asked too much about your private life. I offended you, but I meant no harm. To express my apology, I think grandma's health is not very good. I will transfer the medical expenses to you. You can take grandma to see a doctor. This is also my way of repaying you for saving my life."
Yan Zixi's eyes flickered, as if he had thought of something, and he smiled a little sadly: "Times have really changed. At only four years old, you can easily squander money on us poor people. Children from wealthy families are different. Your family must love you very much."
Yan Laiyi did not deny it: "They love me very much, but the money I spend now is all earned by myself. I am an artist."
Yan Zixi perked up a bit after hearing this: "You're an artist? You sing well? Do your parents like to train you?"
Yan Laiyi shook his head: "Forget it, I entered the entertainment industry just to earn my own living expenses, and I am mainly an actor, but I can sing too. Do you want me to sing for you?"
Yan Zixi opened his mouth, then thought about the time he still had and nodded: "Perhaps it's my honor?"
Yan Laiyi breathed a sigh of relief.
She finally had a good attitude towards her.
She quickly stood up, cleared her throat, and began to sing Scarborough Fair in a very formal manner.
Gu Huai's expression gradually softened as he looked at her with pride.
Yiyi's voice is clearer and more pleasant than it was a few months ago.
Ethereal and powerful.
