As the days passed and the snowflakes fell all over the ground, Ye Tianru and Ye Yushu had turned one year old. The two little ones had learned to walk, but they wobbled and looked like they might fall over at any moment.
Three adorable puppies followed happily behind the two of them. Behind the puppies, Liu Jin and Fu Bao also spread their arms to protect their younger siblings as they walked forward.
Especially Liu Jin, who kept turning left and right, was keeping a close eye on Ye Tianru. This younger brother was too naughty. Fu Bao, on the other hand, was looking at Ye Yushu and was obviously much more relaxed.
Bei Nan rushed in excitedly. In the past few days, Bei Nan's mood has also adjusted. When Nan Nan was kidnapped, Bei Nan was also very excited. He even prepared to recruit soldiers to find Nan Nan.
But in the blink of an eye, Bei Nan was forced to go inside for tea. If Yan Xiaonan didn't come back, Bei Nan wouldn't have to come out either. He was so angry that he wanted to bang his head against the wall and die. Was this a sign of doubt?
But later Yan Daqiang came to tell him that it wasn't that he doubted him, but that he was worried that his impulsiveness would ruin things. Bei Nan scoffed, "Have you guys ruined things enough already?"
Yan Daqiang was so ashamed by what he said. If he hadn't mistaken Yan Aiguo for his son, none of the subsequent events would have happened. But Yan Aiguo was his son, and seeing him standing alive in front of him, he couldn't control his emotions for a moment.
Bei Nan glanced at Yan Daqiang, and that one glance brought tears to her eyes. When did her uncle's hair turn to middle age, and the wrinkles on his face begin to deepen? More importantly, it seemed as if all of his energy and spirit had been drained away.
I still remember more than ten years ago, when my uncle came to Mushroom Village to visit my grandmother with more than a dozen bags. His spirited appearance left an indelible impression on Bei Nan. I'm sure my patriotic brother was still alive at that time.
Bei Nan's heart suddenly ached terribly. She pulled Yan Daqiang to sit on the makeshift bed and comforted him, "Uncle, go ahead and do your work. I can take care of myself. And you don't need to worry too much. Nan Nan is very capable."
Yan Daqiang's eyes lit up. He suddenly remembered that Nan Nan had discovered the fake bear at Mushroom Mountain in Beijing. Nan Nan had even saved his life that time.
Yan Daqiang patted Bei Nan on the shoulder: "Bei Nan, thank you. Just stay here and rest assured. Let me know if you need anything."
Yan Beinan nodded. For Nannan's sake, he had to cooperate with his uncle and stay here obediently. Otherwise, if the enemy took advantage of the situation, it would be a loss.
Baoguo ran in and out, bringing back a lot of supplies, including food, drinks, clothes, and books. Reading in his spare time was the best choice.
Yan Daqiang left, and the desperate man suddenly had confidence. He believed that Nan Nan was definitely waiting for him to save her and for Xia Guo to send someone to pick her up.
Bei Nan was locked up inside, but he was constantly on edge. He kept saying that Nan Nan was very capable, but he was still worried about Nan Nan's safety and whether his grandmother and parents would be able to hold on. He couldn't sleep all night.
The doctor prescribed me a tranquilizer, and after taking it, I was finally able to fall asleep. But I had nightmares every night, always dreaming that Nan Nan was tortured until she was covered in blood, that her mother was unconscious, that her mother was devastated, and that her father was dumbfounded.
He knew it was a nightmare and kept trying to wake himself up, but he just couldn't. When he finally did wake up, he was soaking wet and eventually developed a high fever.
Later, when he learned that Nan Nan had returned and he had finally been released, he was overjoyed. However, he didn't dare to look at Nan Nan, as if he had made a terrible mistake and couldn't face her.
In the end, Yan Xiaonan came to Bei Nan's door and apologized, saying that because she had been kidnapped, her third brother had been imprisoned and had a high fever. Bei Nan was surprised, wondering if Nan Nan was angry that she hadn't gone to rescue her.
Yan Xiaonan secretly rolled her eyes at him. There were some things she couldn't say. Her identity was that of a special department's superhuman. The kidnapping of government personnel had escalated into an international issue, something that he, as an individual, couldn't handle.
"Third brother, I'm worried that you might impulsively recruit soldiers to rescue me, because I know that my third brother would never stand by and watch me be bullied. But my third brother has no choice but to stay here because he's been locked up."
Bei Nan felt a warmth in his heart upon hearing this. His younger sister understood him best. He just couldn't get over this hurdle, always feeling that his sister was suffering in dire straits while he was powerless to help, which was incredibly frustrating.
Bei Nan gradually recovered after Yan Xiaonan's visit. Just then, the chain hotel he invested in was about to be topped out, so he finally left home.
"Nan Nan, the hotel's interior decoration is finished, and the landscaping is done too. Do you have time to go and take a look?"
His eyes caught sight of the two little ones in the yard, and he rushed over in a flash. He first hugged his sister and gave her a big kiss, then picked up his brother and wanted to give him a good kiss as well.
Unexpectedly, the older brother shook his head, trying his best to avoid being kissed by Bei Nan. When he couldn't avoid it and was kissed, he even wiped the spot where he was kissed with his hand, looking disgusted.
Yan Xiaonan's eyes widened in astonishment. Was this really a one-year-old baby? He was so quirky!
Bei Nan was unhappy. How dare the little girl, who wasn't even as tall as her knees, look down on her? So she started kissing Tian Ru wildly on the face, and Tian Ru cried, feeling utterly hopeless.
Ye Chenming snatched his son away: "Are you sick? Why don't you have your own child? What's the point of always bullying my son?"
Seeing that he had made the little guy cry, Bei Nan scratched his head and smiled somewhat embarrassedly.
Ye Chenming carried Xiao Tianru into the bathroom, dampened a towel with hot water, and wiped her face: "Baby, Daddy has cleaned you up, okay? Now let's put some lotion on Tianru, alright?"
Tianru answered in her childish voice, "Daddy, Xiangxiang."
Ye Chenming's heart softened: "Baby, can Daddy kiss you?"
Ye Tianru gave Ye Chenming a quick kiss on the cheek, then pointed to her own cheek and said, "Daddy, kiss."
Ye Chenming held his son's face and kissed him: "My Tianru is so sweet."
Ye Chenming carefully applied the lotion to Tianru and then carried her out. However, his little sister was outside, crying pitifully. Her face was dirty, and her father hadn't washed it for her.
Ye Chenming glared at Bei Nan, thinking, "It's all your fault! You made my little darling sad." He put his son in Yan Xiaonan's arms, picked up his little girl, and went into the bathroom.
Cuihua chased after Beinan with a broom, yelling, "You bullied Tianru! You bullied Yushu!"
Xiao Tianru grinned as she watched. Seeing the little guy smile, Bei Nan had even more fun. This nephew is so much fun.
