After two months, the days of being raised like pigs will come to an end, and the pigs will have to go back to school!
Leng Yue dragged her suitcase, turning back every few steps. "Mom, I don't want to leave. I don't want to go back to school. I can't bear to leave you and Dad."
"You can come back during the National Day holiday, okay? My daughter is the best!" Leng's mother pinched Leng Yue's face, which had become a little chubby but had also regained its former fair and tender appearance.
"Yueyue, Yuyu, don't study so hard. Take good care of yourselves, and listen to your aunt. Okay?" Actually, Leng's mother was also very reluctant to let her daughters go. Although they didn't say it, they were always thinking about them.
However, the quality of education in Wei City is better than in Bin City, and my daughters' future is more important.
Leng Yue nodded obediently, "Mom, you and Dad shouldn't work so hard, and you should take better care of yourselves."
Leng Yu didn't say anything, but stayed snuggled in her mother's arms the whole time, unwilling to come out.
"Mom, I don't know why, but I always feel like I'm a pig being sold off. It's so painful! I want you to keep raising me!" Leng Yue blurted out her true feelings in a moment of madness.
Leng Yu chuckled and stopped snuggling sadly in her mother's arms. "Sister, you really are a pig, a pig raised by Mom and Dad."
"Xiaoyu, you're not allowed to talk about your sister like that!" Mother Leng said, but she also chuckled.
Even the usually serious father, who was following behind them, clenched his fist and coughed a few times in a mock manner.
"Alright, let the children get in the car," said Mr. and Mrs. Leng.
Leng Yu gave her mother a final hug, and Leng Yue hesitated before finally hugging her mother as well. Afterward, the two sisters boarded the bus.
The car started quickly, and the two sisters waved goodbye to their parents outside the car.
In the past two months, Leng Yue has deeply experienced how wonderful it is to have parents who love you! Although she gets scolded occasionally, Leng Yue still feels happy.
Leng Yue had heard people say that home is where mothers are, but she didn't understand. Because the orphanage always had a director, a kind of "mother." But Leng Yue didn't know if that was truly her home.
Leng Yue understands a little now; with her mother around, she has a psychological support.
With Mom around, I can be a child again, without worrying about anything. With Mom, I can wear any emotion on my sleeve; I don't need to wear a mask or pretend to be strong! I can cry when I want to cry, laugh when I want to laugh, because Mom always has a way to comfort me!
Home is where my heart finds peace! My mother is the place where my heart first found peace in life! Therefore, it is a place that one will always cherish throughout their life!
The scenery outside the window rushed past, the passengers inside the car were snoring, and even Leng Yu was nodding his head frequently.
Leng Yue gently placed Leng Yu's head on her shoulder to rest, then fell into deep thought again.
For a full two hours, until the car arrived at Weicheng Central Station, Leng Yue's mind raced. She felt she had thought about many things, yet she couldn't quite put her finger on what she was thinking about.
It wasn't until all the passengers had disembarked and Leng Yu woke up with a soft moan that Leng Yue realized they also had to get off.
Leng Yu was still half asleep and followed Leng Yue blankly all the way to her aunt's house, seemingly not fully awake.
"Go take a nap, I'll wake you up when it's time to eat." Leng Yue found it amusing that Leng Yu was always a beat slow to react.
Leng Yu mechanically walked into the bedroom and actually went to sleep.
As soon as Leng Yu entered, there was a knock at the door. Leng Yue assumed it was her cousin leaving work early and opened the door. But it was Qi Zhe!
"Mr. Qi? What brings you here?" Leng Yue was taken aback for a moment, then ushered him in. "Come in and have a seat!"
She poured Qi Zhe a glass of water and said with a smile, "You've come at just the right time. Xiao Yu and I just arrived."
Upon hearing this, Qi Zhe's expression became somewhat unnatural. Could he say that he had been secretly observing her all along? He only knocked on the door after he saw her.
"You went back to your hometown?" Qi Zhe asked knowingly.
"Yes, Xiaoyu and I didn't want to come back!" Leng Yue said, her eyes crinkling into crescents with happiness.
Leng Yue already had a round face, and after two months at home, she gained a lot of weight, making her face even rounder. Plus, with her life going smoothly and her hormones back in balance, the acne on her face completely disappeared. Her skin was fair and smooth, like an adorable steamed bun.
Qi Zhe looked at Leng Yue's face, his fingers twitching slightly. He really wanted to pinch her! She must feel amazing!
“Mr. Qi? Mr. Qi?” Leng Yue waved in front of Qi Zhe.
Qi Zhe realized that Leng Yue was talking to him. "Just call me Qi Zhe."
"Oh, Qi Zhe, I just asked you if you needed to see us? What brings you to Wei City all of a sudden?" This guy just sat down as soon as he arrived, and he didn't seem like he had nothing to do. Since he wouldn't answer, Leng Yue had to ask him herself.
Qi Zhe pushed up his glasses, "Xinghui has opened a branch in Weishi..."
"A branch office? Here? Why?" Leng Yue was stunned. Xinghui, an entertainment company, opening a branch office in this third-tier city? Are they crazy?
Qi Zhe choked. Could he say that he opened the shop specifically for her?
"It's the company's decision." Qi Zhe perfectly shifted the blame to the company.
“Your company… no, our company is really impressive, with a unique vision! We might just be pioneering something new, hehe, hehe…” Leng Yue chuckled.
"So, from now on, you'll have to report to the company every day and practice music every day." Qi Zhe said this with a serious expression, but a different kind of brilliance was hidden behind his black-rimmed glasses.
"Oh, that's all? Okay, no problem." Leng Yue nodded readily.
"Do you have any other questions?" Qi Zhe was somewhat dissatisfied. Why didn't you ask more questions?
"Huh?" Isn't that a common question asked by customer service representatives when you hang up on them?
But Qi Zhe isn't in customer service, is he? After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Are you in charge of the branch office? Don't you have connections in Beijing?"
Qi Zhe nodded in satisfaction, "Don't worry about Beijing, the company will handle it."
Leng Yue thought to herself, "Who's worried? She's just being polite!"
Leng Yue had already asked, but Qi Zhe was still staring at her and wouldn't leave.
Leng Yue felt helpless. What was this person trying to do? Was he coming or not? Why didn't he just say what he wanted to say? What was the point of staring at her like that?
"Qi...Zhe, is there anything else?" Leng Yue rubbed her chubby cheeks and got straight to the point.
Qi Zhe saw Leng Yue rubbing her face, and her fingers unconsciously twitched. He wanted to try rubbing his face too. It would definitely feel nice!
"You haven't asked me my company address or where I live yet?" Qi Zhe pursed his lips, revealing his unhappiness.
Leng Yue sighed, "Is this person a child? Why be so hesitant? Why not just say it directly?"
Leng Yue rubbed her face again and repeated Qi Zhe's question in its entirety. Qi Zhe indeed stopped making a fuss and answered the question with a slight smile.
However, even so, Qi Zhe still didn't mention leaving.
Leng Yue waited for a long time, then finally ignored him and went to pack her things.

Qi Zhe: Why does she always ignore me? I'm unhappy!
