In the office, Pei Shen put his hands behind his back, listening to the head teacher's nagging silently with a relaxed expression.
He had a good relationship with the old man. When he didn't attend classes in the study room before, the head teacher would come over from time to time to check on him.
The homeroom teacher wasn't as affable as usual. Pointing at the phone, he said sternly, "Even if you're confident of your performance in the chemistry competition, you can't blatantly break the rules by bringing your phone to school. And you're so engrossed in reading it in the classroom."
At this point, the head teacher's expression slowed down, and he leaned forward and asked curiously, "What on earth is it that has you so fascinated?"
Pei Shen curled the corners of his lips, "Do you want to see it?"
"certainly."
Pei Shen bent down.
The head teacher thought Pei Shen was going to tell him the answer, so he quickly put his ear to the ground. But Pei Shen suddenly straightened his face, put away his smile, and said seriously, "Keep it a secret. We won't show it to anyone else."
"Hey, you little brat! You even dare to play tricks on your teacher." The head teacher patted him on the head with a book, moved his phone over, and said disdainfully, "Take your phone and leave now. If you bring it to school again, I'll definitely teach you a lesson."
"I know, I know."
Pei Shen put his phone in his pocket and slowly returned to the classroom.
As I was about to reach the door, the phone in my pocket vibrated.
Pei Shen glanced at it subconsciously and stopped.
The huge words "Jiang Ying" on the screen made him so angry that blood rushed to his forehead.
hehe.
Aren’t these the disgusting parents who used Cancan’s happiness to force Qi Sen to go home?
Oh, he bumped into me.
As soon as he answered the phone, Jiang Ying said straight to the point: "I have something to talk to you about."
Pei Shen sneered twice.
"Our Qi Sen is a very busy man and has no time to waste his precious time on you."
"Your Qi Sen? Who are you? Qi Sen's friend?" Jiang Yingying asked again.
Pei Shen then realized what he had just said.
We are Qi Sen.
"We" is a warm word that declares sovereignty.
Without even realizing it, Pei Shen had already subconsciously regarded Qi Sen as an inseparable part of the family.
No matter who is missing from this home, it can no longer be called a "home".
They are all members of this family and none of them can be missing.
Downstairs, on the playground outside the teaching building, ginkgo leaves were scattered all over the ground.
Qi Sen hurriedly walked through the building with two boxes of milk in his arms and headed towards the teaching building.
Pei Shen noticed that one box was the pure milk he had been drinking every day these days, and the other box was Cancan's favorite plain yogurt.
His heart moved, and he stared blankly at the place where Qi Sen walked.
Everyone says Qi Sen is cold, harsh, and emotionless. But only those who get along with him know that all of Qi Sen's unknown tenderness and care are given to Cancan and this family.
Pei Shen raised his voice a few notches and seriously corrected: "I'm not his friend, I'm his family."
"If you are still a human being, please don't bother him again in the future, thank you."
Without waiting for Jiang Ying to speak, Pei Shen hung up the phone and blocked the call smoothly. When Qi Sen came back, he naturally took the milk from his hand and handed the phone to him without mentioning Jiang Ying at all.
Qi Sen took the phone without thinking much.
In the next two days, he ran back and forth between the police station and the school, and was so busy that he was dizzy. Fortunately, the Qi family did not bother him again, and they had no idea that this was a moment of peace that Pei Shen had gained by blocking Jiang Ying.
I went to the police station twice in two days, and each time I cooperated with the police in finding Cancan's parents.
I told the police where I met Cancan, what he was wearing when he came out, what he liked to eat, and even his favorite catchphrase.
The police have been looking for Cancan's parents for four or five days. They have posted a message about Cancan's missing family on the official website, but the message fell on deaf ears and no one came forward to claim Cancan.
Everyone in the police station understood that Cancan had been abandoned by his parents.
Thinking of this, the police station was filled with cries of grief, and everyone was sighing for Cancan.
Cancan came to the police station three or four times. Every time, she didn't cry or make a fuss and was well-behaved and cute. She called everyone she met brother or sister. When she left, she waved her white and tender little hands to them and said goodbye before leaving.
How could anyone be willing to abandon such a soft and adorable little cub?
Fortunately, there is a wealthy family who wants to adopt Cancan. Out of selfishness, the police are eager to let Cancan go to that family as soon as possible and grow up happily from then on, but some procedures have to be followed.
The announcement of Cancan's abandonment has been posted on the official website of the police station. According to the rules, if no one comes to claim Cancan within 60 days, Cancan will be judged as abandoned and sent to an orphanage.
At that time, that wealthy family will be able to legally adopt Cancan.
The police station was not quite sure about Gu Chi's worth, they only knew that this family was wealthy and they heard that they would have to wait two months before they could adopt Cancan, so they came to the police station every day to negotiate with them.
Every sentence conveys the same meaning: as long as Cancan doesn't have to stay in a miserable welfare home for two months, they will do anything.
But this is against the rules, and no one dares to let Cancan leave.
Gu Chi repeated all of this to Qi Sen word for word. Qi Sen frowned slightly and asked, "What are they worried about?"
"They're worried about abusing her and treating her badly. There are so many perverts out there now, some of them would even beat their own daughters, let alone adopted daughters. If Cancan breaks the rules and gets into trouble in our hands, they don't have the ability to take responsibility."
Gu Chi sighed, "Don't worry, I'm negotiating with my lawyer to see if I can issue a letter of guarantee or something like that."
Qi Sen said "hmm".
Although Cancan stayed in the hotel these days, she would wait for him at the school gate with Taotao at night. The time they spent together was not long, but this did not affect Cancan's happy mood.
"Brother, are we really going shopping?"
After the evening study session, Qi Sen and Pei Shen each held Cancan's hand as they went shopping. Cancan raised her head, her clear almond eyes bright and pretty, and smiled sweetly as she said, "Are you here to buy a dress for Cancan again?"
Qi Sen shook his head: "No. Today is the day when your third brother's chemistry competition results are announced. He won first place, so we came out for a big dinner to celebrate for him."
Cancan lowered her voice: "Okay."
It turns out that I didn’t buy her a princess dress.
But soon, Cancan returned to her previous cheerful appearance, breaking away from Qi Sen and Pei Shen's hands. She took out a lollipop from the small bag she was carrying and raised her little hand high: "Third brother, this is a surprise for winning first place."
Cancan didn't know where she learned the word "surprise". Recently, when she saw her brother and father, she said seriously, "Cancan wants to give you a surprise."
Other people keep their surprises hidden and only bring them out at the critical moment to surprise people, but Cancan is different.
She was always generous in giving surprises. Last time, when she got slippers for Taotao, she held a pair of slippers high in her hands, trotted over to Taotao and said excitedly, "Sister Taotao, Cancan is going to give you a surprise!"
In her little head, a surprise meant something that made people happy.
I can't learn the high-level thinking that adults use to hide things and surprise people.
Pei Shen took it with amusement and pretended to be surprised: "Thank you for the gift, Cancan. Third brother is very happy today."
Cancan smiled sweetly, and her thick and long eyelashes moved slightly, like a soft feather sweeping across the corners of her mouth, making the corners of her mouth unconsciously rise.
The little baby's voice was soft and sweet: "Then Cancan gives Third Brother a surprise every day."
With such a well-behaved and sweet little girl around, Pei Shen and Qi Sen’s life happiness index can be raised by eight degrees.
The child is so well-behaved that people can't help but give her all the fun, delicious and beautiful things.
When Qi Sen and Pei Shen passed by a store selling Barbie dolls in a department store, they looked at each other and stopped at the same time.
Pei Shen pointed at a row of Barbie dolls neatly arranged at the door and asked with a smile, "Cancan, do you like them? Brothers 2 and 3 will buy them for you."
Barbie dolls are an indispensable companion in the childhood of many children, and dressing up and changing clothes for Barbie dolls has become a favorite play-house game for little girls.
Cancan looked at it for a few seconds, shaking his little head like a rattle.
"Don't like it?" Qi Sen asked in surprise.
Cancan turned around and said in a baby voice, "I don't like those black-haired princesses."
Qi Sen, Pei Shen:?
Black hair...monster???
Taotao was the first one to laugh out loud.
Phew, the little princess's idea is too weird!!
Qi Sen and Pei Shen stared at the row of Barbie dolls carefully. The more they looked, the more they felt that the name Cancan made sense.
Barbie dolls are designed in an exaggerated way. Their eyelashes and hair... are indeed quite black. After taking a look at them, the only thing you remember is their thick, long, black eyelashes.
Cancan didn't want it, and Qi Sen didn't insist.
After dinner, Qi Sen and Pei Shen sent Cancan and Taotao back to the hotel, and they each went home.
They only had a short time to meet, and Cancan sat on the sofa, swinging her little feet a little unhappily.
Tao Tao comforted her, "Little princess, go to sleep quickly. We will be able to meet the gods tomorrow. If you sleep too late and can't get up tomorrow, you won't be able to go."
Cancan's drooping little head suddenly raised up, and she looked visibly more energetic.
Yes~
Tomorrow is the award ceremony for the third brother's first place, and the second brother's father said he would take her to see it.
Cancan hurriedly climbed onto the bed with a strong whoosh, clumsily took off her clothes and pants, and when she was about to lie down with her little hands holding the quilt, she suddenly climbed down from the bed and carefully put away the little slippers that were thrown aside.
"What is this for?" Taotao asked.
Cancan responded in a baby voice: "Shoes need to sleep too."
Taotao laughed: "Okay, okay, come to sleep."
Cancan crawled into the bed and slowly moved to Taotao's side like a little pink pig. "Sister Taotao, let's sleep together."
A good night's sleep.
**
The commendation ceremony for the 38th Chemistry Competition was held at the activity center of the provincial key school listed middle school.
The students sat in their seats with great anticipation, waiting for the awards ceremony. The parents who were watching the ceremony were all smiling when they saw how promising their children were.
In the crowd, Pei Shen, with his stiff expression, pursed lips and silence, attracted special attention.
Many parents heard Pei Shen’s name in the congratulatory notice issued by the province.
He stood out among a group of top students with his outstanding result of being the first in the province, and his fame soared. Anyone who paid a little attention to the competition knew Pei Shen, and he became very famous for a while.
But even when he was on the podium, Pei Shen still had a frown on his face and his lips were tightly pursed.
The parents watching the ceremony were whispering to each other.
"If our child won first place, they would probably be so excited that they would be speechless. There is no way they would look sad."
"Don't make such a sad face. My child would probably jump up and down with excitement on the podium."
The parents' metaphors became more and more exaggerated, with things like jumping up and down and being unable to speak coming into the picture. They looked at Pei Shen with more admiration, and each of them wanted to know what it would take to make Pei Shen smile.
On the stage, Pei Shen's lips were tightly drawn.
In the morning, Qi Sen took Cancan to sell breakfast. Pei Shen heard from Taotao about everything Qi Sen had faced during his hospitalization.
It turns out that the biological parents were not just using Cancan as a threat, but one of the reasons why Qi Sen left was to pay for his hospitalization fees.
At that moment, I was overwhelmed with emotion and sadness. When I heard that Qi Sen was really planning to leave, all my emotions turned into anger that accumulated in my chest.
Angry at his own powerlessness, and even more angry at Jiang Ying's parents.
Pei Shen is not as mature as Qi Sen, he has the mentality of a teenager.
Since someone bullied him, he naturally wanted to retaliate.
He knew his own limitations and that it wasn't his place to challenge the powerful. Fortunately, Cancan had a good father who always outmaneuvered his parents. He could make them die of anger.
Before Pei Shen came, he called Gu Chi and told him about everything Qi Sen had been facing during this period with some exaggeration.
Gu Chi was silent.
He never expected that after he showed off in front of Qi Xiuming for the first time, this damn old man would actually take revenge on Cancan.
Gu Chi felt ashamed to let his beloved daughter and rebellious son bear the consequences for him.
He gritted his teeth and said to Pei Shen, "Leave the dog parents to me."
Gu Chi was eating at home. Gu Jueyan, who was watching the news and eating breakfast, frowned and asked what happened.
After hearing Gu Chi's passionate and indignant retelling, Gu Jueyan was silent for a long time.
After a while, he asked calmly, "Negotiate with the police and let Cancan go home the day after tomorrow. In the next two months, if Cancan's parents come looking for me, I'm willing to return her to them as long as she agrees. It doesn't matter if she's been raised for free for a while. Talk to them. What's important now is whether Cancan can live a comfortable and happy life in the next two months."
Gu Chi nodded and suddenly asked, "Why the day after tomorrow?"
Gu Jueyan smiled slightly, "There's a dinner party the day after tomorrow. The Qi family has accepted the invitation and will attend."
Gu Chi didn't understand the meaning of these words.
"So you want to..?"
"Take Cancan to mess things up." Gu Jueyan whispered what Gu Chi didn't say.
A round of applause rang in Gu Jueyan's ears.
Gu Chi clapped his hands, as excited as a sea lion: "As expected of my dad, he's not afraid of anything."
"Go away, finish your meal first."
"Well, our conversation rhymes."
Gu Jueyan: ....Having a child like this is really a headache.
**
There was also thunderous applause in the activity hall of Shangshi Middle School.
Pei Shen stood on the podium, indifferently accepted the certificate and trophy, then took a step back and stood in the same row with the other award recipients.
His expression was much softer than before, but still a little stiff.
He stared blankly into the distance, his eyes gradually coming into focus as a small, white, and tender hand appeared in the audience.
In the second row, Cancan sat in Qi Sen's arms, shaking her head and waving at him, her mouth wide open, and the sound of her shouting was like a surging wave that suddenly disappeared into the distant sea.
The spoiled little princess was obviously aggrieved and angry that Pei Shen didn't notice her.
Cancan simply sat in Qi Sen's arms, covering her ears with her little hands to block out the thunderous applause around her, her mouth still opening and closing.
After shouting a few times, the beautiful almond eyes gradually became more confused.
She sat in Qi Sen's arms with her hands on her face, and pinched her lips foolishly, "Cancan is shouting so loudly, why can't Third Brother hear it?"
Qi Sen behind him smiled but said nothing.
This was not the first time he had seen Cancan act like covering one's ears and stealing the bell.
The little princess thought that if she covered her ears, the noises of the people around her would become quieter and Pei Shen would be able to hear her cries. When she played hide-and-seek with Taotao before, she also liked to squat in the corner with her eyes closed, as if as long as she closed her eyes, she could not see others and others could not see her.
Silly and cute.
Cancan covered her ears and shook her head like a rattle. The movement was so loud that it was difficult for Pei Shen to ignore it.
Countless people's attention was focused on Pei Shen, who had just won the gold medal, with admiration, congratulations, and envy all mixed in.
Under the gaze of thousands of people, Pei Shen's lips, which had been tightly pursed all morning, gradually curved. Gradually, his smile became bright and dazzling like a night-blooming cereus blooming in the dark night, brighter than the rising sun.
In the activity hall that can accommodate a thousand people, the sound of conversation gradually subsided, and it became as calm as the sea after the tide has receded.
The event hall suddenly became extremely quiet.
What happened to Pei Shen?
She had such a serious face just now, but now she's smiling like a sunflower?
The audience in the front and back rows all followed his gaze. Some people in the back rows who couldn't see left their seats and squeezed into the aisle, wanting to see what could have made Pei Shen, who didn't smile even after winning the gold medal, suddenly smile so brightly.
What caught my eye was a little child wearing an apricot-red children's Tang suit skirt. His airy bangs made his chubby face look even rounder.
She looks like a cute little Tang-style princess, with her eyes narrowed in a smile, and a pair of crescent-shaped almond eyes that are so sweet that they make people bubble with sweetness.
It's so cute, like a walking marshmallow. When you take a closer look at it, you will feel relaxed and happy, and you will forget all the sorrows.
No wonder Pei Shen on the stage was laughing like that.
Some students secretly took photos of Cancan and posted them on Weibo, excitedly shouting on Weibo that they had seen such a cute little kid today.
It's another day that tempts me to raise a cub.
The students of Shangshi Middle School naturally saw the gentle Qi Sen sitting with the little Princess Tang Feng in his arms, and they were all stunned.
In his lifetime, the two most handsome boys in school actually got along well for Cancan. This kid is so charming! !
Before long, Cancan's photo spread quickly throughout the Shangshi Middle School forum. Any post that mentioned the words "zai zai" or "little friend" received a flood of replies, as if someone had hired internet trolls or written an automatic message-messaging program.
[Ahhh, my idol's sister is so fucking pretty! Sorry, I couldn't help but swear. It's really because I'm not well-educated, so I had to use vulgar Chinese to express my inner excitement.]
No wonder I heard the other day that Pei Shen, in order to get a glimpse of this kid, went to great lengths to beg Qi Sen for his phone. It felt like my chemistry genius filter was shattered on the spot. After watching it today, I can only say: It was truly worth it!
I've heard the bookstore owner mention Qi Sen's sister many times, saying she's a super cute little princess, the kind that makes you like her twice as much after reading her. I didn't believe it before, but today I have to apologize to this lovely little princess for my former arrogance and disdain. I'm sorry, I was reckless, and my dismissive attitude was a bit indecent.
[Ten thousand people signed a petition asking Qi Sen to open a Weibo account and post his daily life raising his child there! Even Moments is fine!! Give the child a friend status!]
I see many adults who have children can't help but show off their babies on WeChat Moments. Why doesn't Qi Sen learn from them?!
[Such a cute little princess, wouldn't it be fair for you not to show off a little bit? ? ]
For a while, the number of replies to Qi Sen's WeChat Moments and Weibo posts gradually increased, and soon even his classmates sent private WeChat messages expressing their excitement:
[Hand over the photos and videos of the little princess in your phone! !]
Qi Sen turned off his phone with an indifferent expression, rubbed Cancan's cute little face and snorted in his heart.
Cancan’s cute videos and photos will never be leaked.
**
After the award ceremony, Qi Sen left holding Cancan's hand.
When we left, there was naturally another small climax.
Many people took pictures of Cancan and waved goodbye to her. Cancan was also happy and did whatever she was asked to do.
"Little princess, smile." Someone excitedly said while holding up a mobile phone to take a video.
Little Cancan sometimes has no opinions of his own, but when he heard this, he squinted his eyes and smiled sweetly at the camera, and shook his head proudly.
The girl taking the photo was so happy.
Ahhhh the little princess smiled at me!!!
Starting with her, the people behind her picked up their phones to take videos, all shouting, "Smile."
More than a dozen of them happened in a row, and Cancan walked out laughing. If someone laughs so much, even the youngest will start to feel numb.
The smile gradually became fake, and in the end, only a soulless fake smile remained with eight teeth showing and tense facial muscles.
Everyone laughed when they saw it.
The little princess understood the difficulties of life and even learned how to fake a smile!!!
Cancan touched her tired little face and said in a crisp voice: "Brother, Cancan, you don't have to laugh anymore, right?"
Taotao was the first to answer: "No, no."
After saying that, Taotao pointed at Cancan's skirt and asked proudly, "Little Princess, do you like this skirt? If you do, I'll buy it for you on Taobao tomorrow~!"
Taotao has been surfing the Internet faster and faster recently. She can understand many Internet terms and jokes. She has transformed from a person who knew nothing to a little expert on the Internet.
I also saw Hanfu on Taobao the other day when I was browsing the site called "Guess What You Like".
It was then that Taotao realized that there actually were clothes in this world that were similar to the ones the little princess had worn before, so she asked Pei Shen for money and placed an order to buy one.
As for why not looking for Qi Sen...
There's no way, the gods in this world seem to be quite poor.
Cancan spun around in place, her skirt fluttering as she raised her little head and said matter-of-factly, "Of course I like it~"
Qi Sen thought for a moment and said, "I'll buy it for you later."
He has no money now.
Although Gu Chi was his father when he was a god, he was only two years older than him. It was weird and awkward to ask for money from a peer of similar age. So during this period, apart from Gu Chi paying for Cancan's hotel bills and buying snacks and toys for Cancan, Qi Sen had to figure out other expenses on his own.
There is not much savings left in the bank card. If I continue to spend like this, I might really have to rely on Gu Chi to survive one day.
It's so... so embarrassing.
Qi Sen frowned.
"What's wrong?" Pei Shen asked from backstage.
When he saw Pei Shen, Qi Sen's eyes suddenly lit up.
Yeah. Pei Shen is thick-skinned, so I'll let him handle the job of asking for money from now on.
Pei Shen, completely unaware that he had been labeled "thick-skinned" by his second brother, happily walked out holding Cancan's hand.
Many envious eyes fell on him along the way.
Everyone around him looked back at Cancan every few steps, and was extremely envious of Pei Shen who could hold Cancan's little hand.
Pei Shen straightened his back, and the world seemed refreshed.
"Taotao, go look at some Hanfu costumes online and buy all the ones you like."
Tao Tao happily agreed, but a few seconds later, she looked worried: "But Third Prince, we have no money."
They are probably the first gods to live such a poor life.
Taotao sighed, life is not easy.
Pei Shen couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Our Cancan is about to move into the richest man's house, and saying that you are short of money is a great insult to Gu Chi."
After all, his father, a naughty boy who loves to argue with others, has nothing but money. Forgetting his remaining capital for showing off, Gu Chi can use money to kill Tao Tao.
Taotao suddenly understood.
Yes.
The emperor of this world has plenty of money.
Thinking of this, Taotao asked, "When will Cancan be able to move in?"
Qi Sen said calmly: "Just these few days."
In the distance, the wind blew the leaves off, and the leaves danced in the wind. It was clearly a season of depression and defeat, but Qi Sen saw some warmth in it.
A new life is about to begin.
**
Just after lunch, Qi Sen and Pei Shen received a call from Gu Chi, asking them to start packing their things in the next two days and move directly into the villa.
Cancan cannot live without Pei Shen and Qi Sen. Gu Chi understands this, and Gu Jueyan, who agreed to adopt Cancan, also understands this.
In addition, when Gu Jueyan heard from his son about Qi Sen's forbearance and his protection of Cancan and Pei Shen, he felt that this child was no ordinary child, and felt inexplicably distressed.
Qi Sen thought that Pei Shen had just been discharged from the hospital and had always been in poor health, so he put down his clothes and went upstairs to help him.
I never thought that there was someone else in the room besides Cancan and Pei Shen.
Wu Hongcai, Pei Shen's chemistry teacher smiled kindly.
Cancan held a few pieces of paper and asked seriously, "This is my brother's treasure. Why should I give it to you?"
After saying that, he pointed to his little head and said, "Cancan is my little baby, and I can't give it to you. You can't take your brother's baby."
Wu Hongcai came here specifically to pick up his thesis.
He knew that Pei Shen's thesis was nearing completion and he could handle the finishing touches. As long as he could successfully submit the thesis to the magazine, a bright future would be ahead of him. He would no longer have to live in a middle school and be a chemistry teacher in mediocrity.
Wu Hongcai was obviously very excited after waiting for too long. "I am your and your brother's teacher. This time I just want to help him find out if there are any mistakes in the paper."
Thinking of this little boy, he felt very dissatisfied.
After several years of getting along, Pei Shen trusted him very much. In addition, he had previously given Pei Shen the full text of his thesis to read, and every word he said had sincerely expressed his trust in Pei Shen. This time, Pei Shen had no reason to refuse his reasonable request.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin came and ruined his plan.
Cancan didn’t quite understand, and her little hands tightly held the white paper that her third brother took out of the room.
She had vaguely dreamed about this white paper, as if her third brother treasured it very much.
At this moment, no matter what Wu Hongcai said, she just pouted and didn't even look at him.
"I won't give it to you." Cancan raised her head and said coquettishly. She turned her head and saw her second brother coming. Dada ran behind Qi Sen and pointed at Wu Hongcai with her little hand accusingly: "This bad guy wants my brother's treasure. I won't give him any big or small treasures, humph!"
After saying that, she put her hands on her hips and snorted several times to express her anger at the moment.
The little princess was very angry and the consequences were serious.
Pei Shen smiled helplessly and said, "How about I finish the paper myself and you take a look after I check it?"
Seeing that there was still a chance to get the paper, Wu Hongcai pretended to be helpless and sighed repeatedly: "That's all we can do."
After saying this, he walked away.
Qi Sen looked at his back calmly and pushed Cancan in front of Pei Shen. "Look after Cancan. I have something to do."
**
Downstairs, when Wu Hongcai was about to leave, a voice called him.
"Teacher Wu."
Qi Sen ran over to him and introduced politely: "I'm Pei Shen's friend."
"Hello." Wu Hongcai smiled amiably.
Qi Sen said calmly, "It was my sister who was wrong just now. I'll bring her to apologize to you."
"It's okay, it's okay."
Qi Sen smiled faintly, but there was no trace of smile in his eyes: "Pei Shen was just discharged from the hospital recently. If he is busy with the thesis again, I am afraid he will faint again. You just said that you are willing to help him finish it. Is it true?"
Wu Hongcai's eyes lit up: "Of course. I've been with Pei Shen for several years, how could I possibly harm him?"
Qi Sen raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Then give me your contact information. I'll send you Pei Shen's paper later. I'll trouble you with the finishing touches."
"What's the trouble? It's okay."
**
Inside the house, Cancan placed her third brother's most precious thesis on the table. She sat on a chair, sipped yogurt, and sang a nursery rhyme she had learned from cartoons to her third brother: "My dear mother, you come home from get off work after a hard day's work."
At this point, she put down the yogurt and ran to her third brother, pulling him to sit on a chair and continued singing: "Mom, mom, please sit down and have a cup of tea."
Pei Shen looked at the empty little hands curled up into a circle and felt a little confused.
"What are you doing, Cancan?"
Cancan said seriously: "Drink tea."
She poured the air in her hand into his mouth and asked in a baby voice, "Is it delicious?"
Pei Shen laughed.
Children's pretend games are everywhere.
"But brother didn't get to drink the water." Pei Shen wanted to tease her for the first time.
Cancan blinked and said, "Of course, this is fake. Just pretend that you are drinking it."
Pei Shen's eyes flashed.
He suddenly realized that children don't care about truth or falsehood.
She knew that playing house was fake, but children don't think about the meaning of truth and falsehood. As long as the happiness they get from it is real, that's enough.
Adults think too much and always encounter many troubles.
For example, a few minutes later, Qi Sen came in and asked him for his paper.
"What do you want a paper for?"
Qi Sen said calmly, "There's something wrong with your teacher. Change a few values in the paper and send it to him. If he finishes it and returns it to you, it proves that he's a good person and I wronged him. But if he publishes the incorrect paper privately, you should be able to understand his purpose in approaching you."
Pei Shen frowned: "I don't believe it."
The teacher was very good to him. Before Qi Sen and Cancan came into his life, he acted like a half-father to him. How could such a person lie to him?
Qi Sen withdrew his hand. "You don't have to believe it, and don't feel guilty about it. This is just a simple test."
"Cancan and I don't trust him, so what's the harm in taking a gamble?"
Pei Shen lowered his head and his throat rolled twice.
After a long while, he uttered a word: "Okay."
**
Wu Hongcai was obviously excited after receiving the paper from Qi Sen. He smiled and replied, "I will send the paper to you in two days."
Qi Sen replied indifferently with "OK".
The content in the paper was revised by Pei Shen for him. Not to mention Wu Hongcai, even Pei Ze himself would not be able to find any problems unless he read it carefully twice.
If Wu Hongcai submitted the erroneous paper, not only would his own reputation be damaged, but once Pei Shen published the paper, would he still be afraid that the academic community would not know about his scandalous act of plagiarizing the paper?
How could he continue to live with the shame of his scandal being spread all over the place?
Qi Sen doesn't like the way of resisting the enemy in a light-hearted way. He is good at killing the enemy with one move.
Pei Shen frowned the whole day, and his mood only improved slightly when Gu Chi came to pick them up the next day.
Sitting in the passenger seat of the car, Gu Chi looked back and smiled, revealing eight snow-white teeth.
"Cancan, we can live together from now on."
"Cancan remember, she lived in that castle!"
"Yes, yes, yes. When you get there, just tell me what you want and I will buy it for you." When Gu Chi spoke to Cancan, he never used words like "talk to dad".
It was fine for him to treat Cancan as his precious little daughter in his heart, but he always felt a little uncomfortable as a young man in his 20s calling himself a father in front of a three-year-old child.
But when facing Qi Sen and Pei Shen, Gu Chi felt much more relaxed.
Being a "Dad" to a friend is different from being a "Dad" to a child.
The former is status, and the latter is responsibility.
In a group of good friends, there is always one person who calls himself the "father" of the others to show his superior status.
The word "rebellious son" comes out of Gu Chi's mouth right now.
"Rebellious son, my father will be home later." Gu Chi said, "He is the one who adopted Cancan. I am not yet 30 years old and do not have the qualifications."
Thinking of something, Gu Chi rubbed Cancan's soft hair and said with a smile: "My father also lives in that castle. He has a bad temper. Don't be afraid when he is angry. Just hide behind me."
Cancan nodded her head heavily.

Inside the villa, Gu Jueyan was already dressed and waiting.
The news that the family was going to have a little girl and two older brothers spread throughout the villa.
Gu Jueyan liked Cancan very much. He and his wife wanted to have a soft daughter, but considering the dangers of childbirth, they did not have a second one.

Cancan raised her head slightly, and her confused little face became a little clearer.
The little princess smiled softly.
Gu Jueyan's heart was about to melt.
This daughter is worth raising!
If only I could hear such a sweet little princess calling him daddy!!
Gu Jueyan was full of anticipation, but the next second, a clear and loud voice pierced the sky:
"grandfather!"
Gu Jueyan:?
Where is the household registration book? Where is his household registration book?
Let this little guy see whether they are grandfather and grandson or father and daughter!!
After thinking about it, his expression became dispirited.
oh.
It will take another two months before I can become a "father" in the legal sense.
