Chapter 252 Uncle, Don’t Be Sad

It is definitely hard to leave this place where I have lived for a long time.

At about seven o'clock in the morning, Fu Yuling and his four children finally arrived in the town.

Qi Rui was waiting at the intersection leading to the town. When he saw them coming, he hurried forward.

"Go ahead. The accommodation is ready."

Qi Rui's eyes fell on several children. In the days to come, they would live with him. And their mission was to protect them temporarily.

"Is Luo Xiao here?"

“It should still be on the way.”

Fu Yuling hummed, and seeing He An staggering and about to fall down while holding the things he was holding, he quickly reached out with a hand to hold him up.

This allowed him to steady his shaky body and avoid falling.

"Uncle, hold me."

Seeing this, Qi Rui squatted down and hugged He An.

He An was carrying a heavy bag and was used to tilting his head and blinking.

After a while, he spoke, "Uncle, little An An can walk by himself."

He did not forget to add, "Little An An is not stupid."

Qi Rui was amused by his behavior. He put his big hand on his head, but instead of rubbing it, he measured his height.

"Little An An is only this old, so he can ask his uncle to carry him on his back."

Qi Rui actually likes children very much, probably because he is the youngest in the family.

Even when thinking of children, the first person that came to his mind was Li Yan. He didn't know if that person was the same as he is now when he was a child, liking to have a blank expression, and he didn't know how he grew up like this.

But then he thought that this person was the one he liked, and he was secretly happy. This was good, because no one could stand him except himself.

His thoughts returned to He An, and he turned his back to him.

"Come up, little An'an, uncle will carry you on his back."

Fu Yuling received He An's gaze and nodded.

Now, He An grabbed the bag with one hand and put his whole body on Qi Rui's back.

This back was solid and reliable. He An was reminded of the handsome man he had met before.

There was a look of loss in his eyes, and I never saw him again after that time.

No one told him who that man was.

Because the bag was a bit uncomfortable, Qi Rui pulled it back and brought it to the front, holding it across his own hand.

Qi Rui originally wanted to help carry the luggage of He Wen and others, but was stopped by Fu Yuling.

"Let them get it themselves."

He Wen nodded, "We are all big kids and can do our own things."

He Qiu looked very similar to Li Yan, both of them were the type who would not talk unless they could. He glanced at Qi Rui and just nodded coldly.

Qi Rui "ridiculed" her for this, saying, "You will easily be friendless if you continue like this."

"unnecessary!"

Qi Rui: forehead...

"Ignore Xiao Qiu, he's just like that. He thinks talking to unimportant people is a waste of time."

So Qi Rui = unimportant person = waste of time.

Qi Rui was shocked and didn't say a word along the way, but He An on his back began to comfort him.

"Uncle, you are very important, don't be sad."

He An is a warm-hearted person. He said soft and cute words of comfort and even took out some candies from his pocket.

As he spoke, he peeled it off and reached his hand in front of Qi Rui, "Uncle, eat it. Mom said that you can just eat a candy. If you are unhappy, you will leave."

Qi Rui held the candy in his mouth, and the sweetness spread in his mouth, instantly dispelling the depression just now.

The candy is indeed very sweet. I kept my eyes on the packaging, thinking of bringing some for Li Yan when the time comes.
