After Lai San and Lai Si were arrested, they quickly explained their actions. The two brothers usually drove tricycles to pick up jobs and make money, and moved around Fengcheng. When they met a child who was alone and suitable for attack, they would coax him if they could, and use drugs if they couldn't. Xiao Shitou was lucky. Lai Si had an accident with drugs some time ago, and Lai San lost half of his money because of this. He was distressed and refused to let Lai Si use drugs again. Otherwise, after a shot of anesthetic, Xiao Shitou would be useless no matter how smart he was.
With the explanation from Lai San and Lai Si, Fang Lei and his colleagues immediately split up and destroyed several human traffickers' bases around Fengcheng on the same day. At the same time, they followed the clues and caught the buyers. Among these people, the arrest of Lao Yaotou was the most gratifying. It was said that he specialized in sending little beggars to Zhongjing. Many of the children who fell into his hands were very miserable. In Fang Lei's words, Lao Yaotou was a scumbag.
Fang Lei called Lu Lingxi to tell him all these things at night. As soon as Fang Lei's colleagues arrived at noon, Lu Lingxi took Xiao Shitou back to Lingshui Village. Fang Lei knew that Lu Lingxi was concerned about the follow-up of this matter, and he also wanted to plead for Xiao Shitou. Lu Lingxi had a stern face when he left. Fang Lei had known him for a while, but it was the first time he saw Lu Lingxi angry. He thought that Xiao Shitou would be beaten up when he returned. Originally, Fang Lei thought that Xiao Shitou deserved a lesson, but after he caught all these scumbags in the afternoon and rescued nearly 20 children, Fang Lei had to admit that Xiao Shitou had done a good thing.
Fang Lei vaguely expressed on the phone that he should give Xiao Shitou a chance and not beat him too hard. He knew that Yu Xiaojuan was Lu Lingxi's employee and Lu Lingxi could definitely have a say in front of Yu Xiaojuan. Lu Lingxi heard what he meant and couldn't help but laugh. "Don't worry, Xiao Shitou is fine."
As soon as he brought Little Stone back to Lingshui Village in the afternoon, Little Stone started to make a fuss about going to find his grandmother. Yu Xiaojuan rolled up her sleeves after hearing what Lu Lingxi said, but Grandma Dong stopped her from beating him, saying that she could remember to beat him first, Little Stone had just come back and needed to calm down, and she could beat him in a few days. Judging from Little Stone's appearance, Lu Lingxi thought that he would get over it in a few days. But Grandma Dong praised Ah Huang again and again for this matter. Grandma Dong didn't agree with Little Stone raising Ah Huang before, but this time she didn't object. She bought bones and built a dog house, and regarded Ah Huang as their family's great benefactor. After a whole afternoon of noise, it was not until the evening that Yan Yue took Lu Lingxi back from Lingshui Village.
Lu Lingxi described it vividly, and Fang Lei couldn't help but laugh when he imagined what Xiao Shitou and Ah Huang looked like.
"Okay, then I'm relieved. After this is over, I'll try to apply for a commendation for Dahei and Ah Huang, so that their efforts are not in vain."
The so-called commendation was a certificate of honor, and Lu Lingxi thought it didn't matter whether there was one or not. But it was Fang Lei's kindness, so he didn't refuse.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Lingxi was still thinking about Xiao Shitou. Yan Yue closed the file in his hand and smiled at Lu Lingxi: "What did Fang Lei say?"
Lu Lingxi sat next to Yan Yue and said absentmindedly, "I briefly talked about their actions in the afternoon and the matter of Xiao Shitou."
Speaking of Xiao Shitou, Yan Yue shook his head and said, "Xiao Shitou is really too brave this time."
This is exactly what Lu Lingxi is most worried about. He thinks that Xiao Shitou is brave, mostly because he thinks he can communicate with Ah Huang. This unique ability gives him confidence and makes him do things that he shouldn't do at his age. This is not the first time. Uncle Li mentioned before that Xiao Shitou relied on Ah Huang to scare Xu San. At that time, Lu Lingxi and Uncle Li's educational direction was to tell Xiao Shitou that he couldn't do bad things just because he had this ability. But now, Lu Lingxi thinks that he should teach Xiao Shitou how to correctly understand this ability. Even with Ah Huang, he is not omnipotent.
Hearing Lu Lingxi's worry, Yan Yue seemed to be thinking about something. "It's not as serious as you think, Xiaoxi. It's probably because Fang Lei often goes to Xiao Shitou to talk about solving cases, and Xiao Shitou subconsciously regards the characters in Fang Lei's stories as idols. Boys will go through this stage in their growth process, worshiping and yearning for heroes. He will understand when he grows up."
When he said this, Lu Lingxi was a little confused, but more curious, "Really, Brother Yan, do you have one too?"
Yan Yue curled his lips and chuckled, "Brother Yan has it too, doesn't Xiaoxi have it?"
Lu Lingxi shook his head subconsciously, and halfway through he thought of something, and said hesitantly: "I forgot."
Yan Yue noticed his expression, his eyes darkened, he stretched out his arms to hold Lu Lingxi in his arms, lowered his head and kissed him on the face, "Just forget it."
Lu Lingxi hummed softly, curled up in Yan Yue's arms and found a comfortable position, half lying on the sofa and picked up a flower illustration book to read. He seemed to be reading, but his attention was not focused at all, and he kept thinking about what Yan Yue said. The longer he lived in this life, the more he realized that his life in the previous life was abnormal. This abnormality was not only because he could not go to school and had to stay at home all year round, but... Lu Lingxi didn't want to think about it anymore, put down the book, turned over, hugged Yan Yue's waist, and buried his head in Yan Yue's arms.
His dependent look made Yan Yue feel satisfied. He gently touched Lu Lingxi's back again and again, his eyes so gentle that they seemed to be dripping with water.
Neither of them spoke. A faint warmth surrounded them, and the only sound in the room was from the television.
"The rainy season is here, and it's mating season on the grasslands again!"
Lu Lingxi burst into laughter, and the warm atmosphere before was gone. He looked from Yan Yue's arms and saw Dahei squatting in front of the TV, watching "Animal World" with the remote control, while Xiaohei was lazily curled up on top of Dahei's head, biting the tip of his tail with his head down and enjoying himself.
The big and the small get along harmoniously. Lu Lingxi curled his eyes and the smile on his face became more and more brilliant. Yan Yue lowered his head and looked at him in fascination, hoping that the boy would always look so happy.
The reason why he went to An Jie today was to ask An Jie to help him investigate the affairs of the Zhongjing Lu family. He didn't go back to China often before, and he had nothing to do with the Zhongjing Lu family, so he didn't care about the news of the Lu family at all. But since he had that guess, he wanted to investigate the affairs of the Zhongjing Lu family overnight, especially Lu Guangjing's family.
An Jie was very surprised by Yan Yue's order, but he said nothing. The Lu family's affairs were not a secret, and many people in Zhongjing knew about it. Of course, Yan Yue asked for a detailed investigation starting from 18 years ago, which would take some time. But from a few well-known things at present, Yan Yue could infer the growth experience of another "Lu Lingxi", which was a life he did not want to experience as a teenager.
Yan Yue thought of the boy's unusual concern for Donglingcao, and her heart softened. She lowered her head and kissed the boy gently.
"Su Lang and his team are making very good progress in their research. They treasure the pot of first-grade wintergrass we sent them. Based on the current progress, we will be able to test it on mice soon."
Lu Lingxi was a little surprised why Yan Yue suddenly mentioned Su Lang's research, but he was still very happy to hear that they had made progress.
“Are we going to start planting on a large scale?”
Yan Yue stroked Lu Lingxi's face and whispered, "Don't worry, they have a small amount of cultivation in the laboratory. We will plant it on a large scale after the mouse test."
Lu Lingxi smiled, "Brother Yan, you invested in Dr. Su's laboratory while cooperating with them in the name of micro-horticulture. You are simply moving money from your left pocket to your right pocket. It's really a huge profit."
Yan Yue looked at Lu Lingxi with deep eyes and chuckled, "Xiaoxi is right. Brother Yan's business has been developing smoothly since he met Xiaoxi. It seems that Xiaoxi has a face that brings good luck to her husband."
Lu Lingxi: “…”
When it comes to shamelessness, he is definitely no match for Yan Yue.
Yan Yue's lips curled up, and there was a gentleness in his eyes and eyebrows. He gently pinched Lu Lingxi's chin and lowered his head to cover it again.
The next morning at breakfast, Wang Shuxiu also asked about Xiao Shitou. Lu Lingxi briefly mentioned it, and Wang Shuxiu sighed after listening. Fortunately, Xiao Shitou was lucky, otherwise, if he hadn't been found, I couldn't imagine what would happen to Yu Xiaojuan. After talking about Xiao Shitou, Wang Shuxiu cursed the human traffickers a few more times. As a mother, Wang Shuxiu really hated human traffickers. As she spoke, she remembered something and poked Lu Lingxi with a finger.
"You were almost lost once when you were a child, but you were brought back in the end."
She spoke vaguely, and Lu Lingxi looked confused. Wang Shuxiu seemed unwilling to talk about it. "Forget it, it's all in the past. If it weren't for Xiao Shitou, I wouldn't have remembered it. Eat. Eat."
Lu Lingxi looked at Wang Shuxiu in confusion, then lowered his head and ate obediently.
After dinner, Wang Shuxiu and Lu Lingxi talked about going on a honeymoon with Xiao Feng. They had been preparing for this before the wedding. It was Xiao Hong who suggested it. The two families just wanted to go out together. They didn't go far, just to see a few cities around, and to help Zhou Xiaoman check her health.
Lu Lingxi had no objection to this. He supported Wang Shuxiu to go out and have fun while she was still young. Now that the family had no financial burden, Wang Shuxiu should enjoy life.
"You don't have to worry about the small restaurant. Yi Hang and I have settled everything. Hu Zi will help if anything happens. Xiaoxi, you just need to take care of the micro-gardening." Wang Shuxiu said as she cleaned up the dishes.
Xiao Feng rolled up his sleeves and went to wash the dishes. Lu Lingxi stood up a little embarrassedly and wanted to help, but was stopped by Wang Shuxiu. "It's just a few dishes, why bother? Your dad can wash them clean."
Lu Lingxi suppressed his laughter and nodded. Xiao Feng smiled at Wang Shuxiu and tacitly agreed that he had washed the dishes.
The date they decided to travel was the day after tomorrow, and Xiao Hong drove there directly. One car was enough for four people, but the only problem was what to do with Xiao Baiwan? It was so big that it had to take up a seat for one person, and it would be a bit crowded in the car. Xiao Hong thought about it and decided not to take Xiao Baiwan with him.
"How is it? Is there any problem taking care of Xiao Baiwan?"
Lu Lingxi nodded. He knew there was no problem, but he didn't know if Xiao Baiwan had any problem.
