The car returned to the military region.
Li Huai had to attend a meeting, and after dropping his son and grandson off at home, he went to attend to official business.
He also kept the takeout hamburgers at home.
However, when he was about to leave, he gave his son and grandson some instructions.
"You've already eaten, so don't sneak any more."
Sanwa answered expressionlessly, "I know." His father is getting more and more childish.
Li Huai then left with peace of mind.
Knowing that the father and son were taking care of their own meals, Zhao Qinglan and her daughter were in no hurry to come back. After getting a beauty treatment, they went shopping before returning home.
They had only been home a short while when Li Huai also got off work and went home.
Zhao Qinglan had just finished putting away the things she bought while shopping when her husband came in carrying a paper bag.
"Today, Sanwa, Xingxing, and I went to eat that fast food hamburger. I thought it tasted pretty good, so I brought one for you too."
Zhao Qinglan was surprised, but quickly smiled.
"Okay, then I'll try it too."
The food inside was actually cold, but Zhao Qinglan still ate some, thinking to herself that she should get a microwave oven for the house.
Seeing his wife eat the food he brought back made Li Huai feel very happy.
Xiao Duo was a little confused when she saw her father carrying an old man's paper bag upstairs. Her younger brother explained the whole story to her, and it was quite funny.
However, she quickly changed the subject.
"Sanwa, isn't there a single woman in your workplace that you find attractive?"
Sanwa glanced helplessly at her older sister. "I'm going to the research institute to work, not to find a partner."
"You're trying to balance work and dating? Are you really going to stay single forever?"
"Why not? I think I'm perfectly fine on my own."
"Fine, I can't argue with you." Her younger brother was truly beyond saving.
However, since her parents didn't urge her, she, as the older sister, would only ask a few questions at most.
Xiao Duo couldn't just abandon her own family and company, so after staying there for a few days, she took her son back home.
Sanwa resumed his routine work life.
The weather is getting colder, and it's almost time for winter break.
The final exams are before the winter break, and the three kids need to attend one more class at the university before the exams.
Because of the heavy snow outside, the roads were difficult to travel on, so Zhao Qinglan mentioned it to him when he went out.
"Let's go together. I have some errands to run, and I'll pick you up after your class."
Sanwa nodded.
It would be more comfortable to ride in his own car, but he felt it was unnecessary to have someone pick him up and drop him off regularly.
When they arrived at the school gate, Zhao Qinglan put her son down and arranged a time to pick him up.
"Sanwa, if Mom is late, don't just stand there waiting at the door. Find a warm place to stay first."
"Okay, Mom, I'm not stupid."
With a wave, the third child walked into the school.
Not far away, Yunyun, who had run out with her roommate to buy roasted sweet potatoes, raised an eyebrow.
Such a handsome Professor Li has such a down-to-earth nickname.
Wait a minute, she felt like she had a third brother in her memory, something from when she was little, but her memory was hazy and she couldn't remember exactly what happened.
Yunyun's mood improved even more after meeting a handsome fellow villager while buying roasted sweet potatoes.
Back in her dorm, she remembered she hadn't told her family she'd bought a train ticket home, so she made a phone call.
After exchanging pleasantries with her parents, she suddenly asked, "Mom, when I was little, did we have a neighbor with a brother named Sanwa?"
On the other end, Xie's mother was silent for a moment before saying, "There are no neighbors, but you got lost once when you were little, when you went to the temple fair with me and your grandma. The family that helped you had a child named Sanwa. After you came back, you talked about your brother Sanwa for many days until you slowly forgot about him."
Children's memories are not strong, but Xie's mother still remembered the adult she asked.
What made it so memorable was that my daughter was crying and fussing, wanting to go play with her older brother, Sanwa.
It turns out she really does know a guy named Sanwa. Considering that Professor Li and she are from the same hometown, could it really be that coincidental that he is the same person?
Yunyun suddenly had the idea to ask a question.
After making the call, Yunyun hesitated for a while in the dormitory before putting on her coat, hat, and scarf and heading out.
"Yunyun, it's not time for class yet, why are you out so early?"
"I have something to do, so don't wait for me in class."
Because she had previously interacted with physics students, she also remembered where her handsome fellow townsman was teaching.
When she arrived outside the classroom, there was still some time before get out of class ended, so she had no choice but to wait outside.
It was still very cold outside, so she could only walk around, stomp her feet, and rub her hands to warm herself up.
When the bell rang to signal the end of get out of class, Yunyun felt as if it were heavenly music.
Sanwa is a teacher who ends get out of class on time and never goes overtime, but his enthusiastic students always have many questions to ask.
With no other option, Yunyun had to continue waiting outside, glancing inside every now and then.
When Sanwa finally finished answering the students' questions and came out with the items, Yunyun immediately followed.
Fearing that there were too many people at the classroom door, she stopped Professor Li, which would have a bad influence.
When they reached a secluded spot outside, Yunyun called out, "Professor Li, Professor Li, wait!"
Sanwa turned around and saw a chubby girl running towards him.
"Hey classmate, what's up?" Although he was in a hurry to get home, Sanwa still asked patiently.
"Professor Li, I'd like to ask you something," Yunyun said generously.
Since you've already brought it up, just ask openly and honestly.
"Let's talk as we walk." He was also worried that his mother might arrive too early and be waiting at the door.
Yunyun didn't deny it and quickly walked alongside him.
"Professor Li, may I ask you, have you ever helped a lost little girl at a temple fair in your hometown before?"
Sanwa stopped in his tracks and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
"Little girl?"
"Yes, just a few years old." How could she have forgotten to ask her mother how old she was when she got lost? Yunyun was a little annoyed.
Thanks to his good memory, the third child actually remembered.
It's just because that little girl left such a deep impression on me.
He didn't answer whether it was true or not, and continued walking. "Why did you ask that?"
"Professor Li, is it true or not?"
"Maybe, maybe not."
"Is it that you can't remember?"
"Hmm, I can't remember," Sanwa said directly. It was a small matter from many years ago, and no matter why the girl asked, he didn't want to investigate.
"Are you really not able to remember? Why don't you think about it again?"
"Even if I can remember, so what?" Sanwa said impatiently.
He can never be enthusiastic when facing outsiders.
Zhao Qinglan had just arrived at the school gate when she checked her watch and saw that it was time to leave. Looking into the school, she saw her son walking towards her.
Her eyes lit up too.
If she wasn't mistaken, her son was not only accompanied by a young woman, but the two of them were also talking!
