Zhu Wuhuan stared at him silently for two seconds, then protested coquettishly: "No, if I regret it, I will still be your beloved Huanhuan. If you regret it, you are a puppy."
Feng Changye indulged her shamelessness, "Alright, if I regret it, I'm a puppy, but you always have the right to regret it in front of me, is that okay?"
Zhu Wuhuan smiled sweetly at him, "Okay."
She looked at him happily. After half a minute, she asked, "When are you going to steal your skull? I won't let you go tonight. I'm in a bad mood. My husband, you have to stay with me all the time..."
She said to him tenderly, "If you weren't here, I would definitely lose sleep. My husband, you don't know how important you are to me..."
It was rare to see his wife acting like a spoiled child, and Feng Changye's heart softened.
Being needed so strongly by his wife, he felt that even if she wanted the stars in the sky, he would find a way to pick them for her.
He leaned in closer, looked at her, and answered softly, "Okay, I'm not going anywhere. I'll stay with our Huanhuan tonight. Let Huanhuan no longer be an orphan. Let Huanhuan be a baby who is loved and pampered."
Zhu Wuhuan hummed in satisfaction.
That’s great.
Even in the saddest times, he is always by my side.
With him around, the air is sweet, and every breath with him dilutes the pain in her heart. He takes away all her sadness and leaves only endless sweetness in her heart.
That night, Feng Changye sat at the head of the bed as he promised and did not go anywhere. He recited the gorgeous Book of Songs in a low voice to her in her ear.
It is full of ups and downs and rhythm.
She rested her head on the down pillow, looked quietly into his eyes, and soon fell asleep to the sound of his voice.
Wherever he is, she will never be alone.
He is her spiritual support.
…
After that, Feng Changye stayed with Zhu Wuhuan for the whole day, and finally helped her get over the unhappiness of her scumbag parents and smile again.
On the third day, it was time to entertain the uncles and aunts from the orphanage.
Zhu Wuhuan stood at the hotel entrance early in the morning, waiting to greet the uncles and aunts who had been so kind to her.
At ten o'clock, the dozen or so luxury cars sent by the hotel to welcome the uncles and aunts arrived on time.
Zhu Wuhuan was so excited that his eyes became moist as he watched the hotel staff open the car door and the uncles and aunts, some with black hair and some with white hair, get out of the car with the help of their children.
“Aunt Su…” “Uncle Zhao…” “Uncle Zhang…” “Aunt Sun…”
She walked up to them, calling them one by one, and hugged them one by one.
She was already full of respect and love for these elders, and now that she knew she had such a pair of scumbag parents and that her sisters lived such an unfortunate life, she felt even more grateful to these elders who had no blood relationship with her but were willing to kindly protect her as she grew up.
If it weren't for them, she wouldn't be who she is today.
Thank them for letting her know that there is still a lot of truth, goodness and beauty in this world.
Thank them for dedicating their lives and showing their love, making this world so colorful.
The uncles and aunts were more pleased than each other to see the skinny girl who used to be pale and thin turn into the fair-skinned and beautiful one now, and the ugly duckling who used to be self-deprecating turn into the confident and noble white swan now.
"Wuhuan, you're amazing! You're truly a flower blossoming from the mud. You refuse to yield to your fate, and you live out your most beautiful and powerful self!"
"Wuhuan, you make us proud of you!"
"Yes, Wuhuan, your success allows us to smile and say to those children in the orphanage, keep going! As long as you're willing to work hard and fight, even if you're a bunch of unloved wild kids, you can still carve out a glorious future! Because before you, there was already an older sister who did it. She went from being a helpless child with no one to support her to becoming a famous director known throughout the country. She'll be famous all over the world in the future!"
"Wuhuan, it's rare that you can find time to get together with us old guys despite your busy schedule. You're so busy, why don't you just focus on your career? Why do you have to have a meal with us? We're just happy to see you on TV!"
"That's right. We're retired now and have nothing to do all day. We have plenty of time, but you're different. You're a big director making hundreds of thousands of dollars a minute. It's such a waste of your time!"
"And you've booked such a nice hotel! Oh my god, how much is this meal going to cost us? I remember when you were little, you'd be like greedy cats, watching the popsicle vendors outside the iron gate every day, wanting to eat a ten-cent popsicle, but we were reluctant to pay. Now you're so generous, inviting us to dinner at such a nice hotel! I can already feel the pain of spending money before I even set foot inside!"
“…” The uncles and aunts surrounded Zhu Wuhuan, chatting and laughing with each other.
They truly treated Zhu Wuhuan as their own child, so some were proud of her success, some felt bad for her spending, and some thought she was too polite and didn't treat them as one of their own...
Zhu Wuhuan took their arms and responded to them one by one, smiling, his heart full of the happiness of being doted on by all the adults back then.
very nice.
After many years, she felt the long-lost happiness again.
After greeting everyone, she supported the oldest dean and walked into the hotel with everyone.
Because everyone was elderly, she didn't book a room on the tenth floor, but on the second floor, so everyone could reach it by stairs.
A group of carefree old people ruthlessly abandoned their children, leaving them to have fun in the other private rooms reserved by Zhu Wuhuan. They then walked into a private room with Zhu Wuhuan, closed the door, and talked about their time in the orphanage with a smile.
Zhu Wuhuan laughed along with them, making the group of old people laugh out loud.
We can't just sit there and chat, right? After a while, people from the hotel came in one after another, carrying plates of exquisite dishes into the private room and filling up the big round table.
Because the guests at the banquet are all elderly people, the dishes are soft and easy to chew, easy to digest, and mostly soft and glutinous, and in the form of soups.
Zhu Wuhuan didn't want any of the fish, shrimps and crabs in the sea.
Elderly people are in poor health as they age, and seafood contains a variety of foreign proteins and histamines, which can easily cause allergies in those with weakened immune systems. So, since she wasn't sure if the elders were allergic, she simply didn't order seafood, encouraging everyone to try other delicacies and healthy, green dishes. The same thing happened.
The main purpose of her banquet was to reminisce about the past, to express gratitude, and to give everyone money. She didn't do it to show off how rich she was now, and there was no need for her to be like a nouveau riche and order something expensive.
When the old people saw the dishes on the table, they all praised them highly.
The way they looked at Zhu Wuhuan became more kind.
As expected of the children they raised, even though they are rich, they still remember their original aspirations. She invited them to dinner out of her heart, not to show off. You can tell her sincerity by looking at the care put into the dishes.
"Huanhuan, don't keep telling us you're grateful. Actually, we're even more excited than you are to meet you today! To you, we're the kind people who took care of you as you grew up. But to us, seeing you succeed so well, seeing you become someone who contributes to our country, we all feel the joy of having lived a meaningful life and having made a contribution to our country!"
The old dean smiled and picked up the water glass. "You are grateful to us, and we should also be grateful to you. Thank you for your success. It has made us realize the value of our old bones! Thank you for making our lives more meaningful!"
The other elderly people also responded and raised their cups of water together with the old director.
Zhu Wuhuan was so moved that her heart was in a mess. She quickly picked up her water glass, clinked glasses with the old people, and drank half a glass of water with them with tears in her eyes.
After everyone drank half a glass of water, she walked to the small teapot on the side.
"Uncles and aunts, please sit down and eat. I'll serve you more."
Seeing that everyone asked her to sit down quickly and not to serve them, she smiled and said, "I'm happy today, and I want to fill the cups for the uncles and aunts. Uncles and aunts, do you remember when we were little, we children loved to scramble to fill the tea for the uncles and aunts. Can you let me regain the joy of my childhood, okay?"
When everyone heard her say this, they agreed with a smile.
She raised her hand and placed it on the small teapot.
[System, transfer the rejuvenation pill to the teapot.]
[Okay.]
The system had been prepared long ago. The moment she conveyed her thoughts, a round pill was transferred to the open teapot through the cover of her sleeve.
The pill dissolved in water immediately and became one with the water in the blink of an eye, leaving no trace of it.
Zhu Wuhuan picked up the small teapot and shook it gently without making any expression. Then he walked up to the elderly people with a smile, bent down and respectfully filled everyone's cups with tea.
There were more than a dozen elderly people, and a small pot of tea was just enough to fill everyone's cups.
There was still a little water left, so she walked up to the ninety-year-old dean and said with a smile, "Dean, please take a sip quickly. I still have a little water left, and I want to give you another drink!"
Everybody laughed and cheered, and the old dean's face flushed with joy. He picked up the cup and took a big sip.
The rejuvenation pill was diluted, so he didn't feel any magical changes in his body after taking a sip. He just vaguely felt that the water seemed to make his throat and stomach feel a little warm.
But the elderly who are used to drinking hot water don’t think there is anything strange about this.
Who doesn’t feel warm from the throat to the stomach when drinking hot water?
He didn't care, smiled and put the cup back on the table, "Okay, you can have more."
Zhu Wuhuan poured the remaining water into the old dean's cup, then smiled and said to everyone, "Thank you everyone for helping me regain my happiness. It's a blessing to have elders asking me to add more tea!"
Everyone laughed.
Then she put down the teapot, sat back, and chatted with everyone while eating.
The elderly like to drink water while eating. They take a sip from the cup while eating, and then continue chatting. When they feel thirsty for a while, they continue drinking.
So, as Zhu Wuhuan deliberately delayed time to chat with everyone, by the time the meal was over, everyone's cups were empty.
Seeing those empty cups, Zhu Wuhuan smiled.
It’s great that everyone has finished their drinks.
Go back and have a good sleep today, and you will feel more comfortable and lighter tomorrow.
But this kind of comfort and lightness is similar to a physical therapy session in a sanatorium. It is not too outrageous or surprising, and it does not make people notice that something is wrong.
Unlike physical therapy, which only works for a day or two and then rebounds, these elderly people, after drinking the water diluted with the rejuvenation pill, will maintain a light and comfortable physical condition from tomorrow until ten years later...
Those who are in better health can last for more than fifteen years.
She thought happily that this was the only thing she could do for the elderly without revealing her identity.
If she could reveal her identity, she would like to exchange a whole pill for each of the old people. Unfortunately, she can only stay here for more than ten days. She can't protect them, so she can't give them such a magical pill.
I gave the rejuvenation pills away secretly, and now, I only have one million left for everyone.
She had already prepared the money.
