Chapter 64 Li's Parents
Father Li looked at Li Changan, his eyes filled with reminiscence of the past.
He took another puff of his cigarette, looked outside the house, and his voice was a little vague.
"That year, your mother and I came back from working outside. We heard a baby crying on the road. We followed the sound and saw you in the bushes. You were so fair and tender at that time, and your face was red from crying. It just so happened that your mother and I had been married for several years and had no children, so we decided that if someone came looking for you, we would return you. If no one came looking for you, we would keep you and raise you ourselves."
Father Li retracted his gaze and looked at Li Changan with loving care.
"It just so happened that we hadn't been home for two years, so when we got home we lied and said we gave birth to you outside. So, the neighbors didn't know that you were adopted by us. Since we had you, your mother and I thought that it would be okay even if we didn't have children in the future. Who would have thought that after more than ten years, your mother actually gave birth to your sister. Chang'an, it must be your blessing that helped us bring your sister."
After saying this, Father Li let out a long sigh of relief. After Chang'an was brought home and raised for a while, the child grew up to be as beautiful as a beautiful jade. The child's mother was reluctant to let go and worried every day that the child's relatives would come looking for him.
Finally, as the child grew up, no one came to look for him, and I gradually put my mind at ease. Unexpectedly, the child's relatives came at this time.
But it’s also good that the child’s biological parents are actually the famous Lin family in Beijing. From now on, you don’t have to worry about your children’s future anymore.
Mother Lin wiped her tears and looked at Li Changan with reluctance in her eyes.
"Changan, if your biological parents ask you to go back, just go back. Don't worry about us."
Li Changan raised his head and looked at his parents, a hint of warmth in his eyes. He grinned, showing his usual sunny side.
"Mom and Dad, don't worry. No matter what happens in the future, I will always be your son. As the saying goes, the grace of raising a child is greater than the grace of giving birth to one. I will never abandon you no matter what."
Mr. and Mrs. Li smiled with satisfaction, as they knew their son's character very well. However, the two couldn't help but feel a little worried.
It is said that there are many grudges among wealthy families. Chang'an is a kind-hearted and straightforward child. Will he be bullied if he goes there? Will anyone look down on him?
The couple tossed and turned in bed at night, their hearts full of worries. The hearts of the loving father and mother were almost broken.
Li Changan lay on his simple little bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. He was still hesitant about whether to return to the Lin family.
He had no lack of love from his parents during his growth, so he had no feelings of admiration for the relatives who suddenly appeared.
The Lin family already has two sons. Will there be conflicts if I go back and affect their interests?
I didn't grow up in the Lin family, so I definitely don't have any feelings for those so-called relatives.
The environment I grew up in was simple and innocent. If I had to face all those intrigues, I would feel a headache just thinking about it.
"Brother, I want to sleep with you."
Just when Li Changan was lost in thought, Lele came over with a small pillow and climbed onto his bed.
Li Changan came back to his senses, smiled and picked her up and laid her beside him. He scratched Lele's small nose and laughed.
"You are already a grown-up girl and you still want to sleep with your brother. Aren't you ashamed?"
Lele giggled out loud, then hid under the quilt and spoke in a muffled voice.
"She's still a child. Why can't a child sleep with her brother?"
Li Changan took her out from under the quilt and ruffled her hair.
"Is this child stupid? He is still hiding under the quilt in such hot weather."
Lele pouted and slapped his hand away unhappily.
"Brother is bad. I told you not to mess up my hair."
"Okay, okay, little Princess Lele. Brother is wrong. Go to sleep quickly!"
Lele then closed his eyes in satisfaction and lay down obediently. Soon, the sound of regular breathing could be heard.
Li Changan looked at Lele's innocent and well-behaved sleeping face, and his mood instantly improved a lot.
I sorted out my chaotic thoughts and closed my eyes and fell asleep. Things will work out when the time comes, why think so much?
......
As soon as An Ran walked down the stairs, everyone in the living room looked at her like a searchlight. An Ran smiled a little awkwardly.
"Good morning, why is it so early today?"
Qin Shuhe didn't sleep all night last night, feeling very nervous. The child said yesterday that he wanted to ask his current parents, but he didn’t know how they were doing.
She got up early in the morning and waited in the living room for news, becoming extremely anxious. When she saw An Ran coming down, her eyes suddenly lit up and she rushed forward to grab An Ran.
"Of course, give Changan a call to see what's going on there."
An Ran looked at everyone, all of them were looking at her anxiously, so she could only take out her cell phone and make a call.
The call was connected quickly. Li Changan woke up very early because he had something on his mind.
"Cousin, did you ask your parents about what happened yesterday?
“Yes.”
Li Changan responded straightforwardly.
"My parents said they picked me up from outside."
An Ran's cell phone was on speakerphone, and Qin Shuhe immediately became anxious when he heard it.
"Changan, when are you going home? Mom has already cleaned up your room yesterday."
Everyone stared at their phones nervously, afraid to hear Li Changan's refusal.
"hehe."
Li Changan's chuckle came from the phone.
"Don't worry, I don't plan to go back to live there for the time being."
"Why, child? Grandma knows that you have suffered a lot outside. When you come back, grandma will definitely compensate you well."
Mother Lin also became anxious and asked quickly.
Li Changan said after a moment of silence.
"I also want to spend time with my parents. They are usually busy and don't have time to be at home. My sister is still young, so I want to stay at home to take care of her."
"Changan is right."
Old Master Lin also spoke at this time. He was very pleased with Li Changan's approach. He did not abandon his parents who raised him just because he was going to have a rich life. This is a good character.
"Changan, go back and talk to your parents. When can our two families meet and get to know each other? It wasn't easy for your parents to raise you, and you are a good child for knowing how to be grateful. From now on, our family will treat your parents' family as relatives. Changan, wouldn't it be nice for you to have a few more relatives in the future?"
What Mr. Lin said was very soothing and almost touched Li Changan's heart.
Now Li Changan is less averse to returning to the Lin family. His mood has also become quite good. He hung up the phone when he made an appointment to meet with Old Master Lin.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Li were sitting nearby watching Li Changan answer the phone. Seeing the kindness shown by the Lin family, their worries were put at ease a little.
At least, the Lin family really wants Chang'an to return, and that is enough.
"Mom and Dad, the Lin family and I have an appointment for us to meet tomorrow night."
"How can this be good?"
Mother Li was a little uneasy. Thinking about the Lin family's family background, she felt a little inferior.
"Yes, what kind of family is the Lin family? What kind of family is our family? This is not appropriate."
Father Li also agreed with Mother Li's words. They were just ordinary people and were not from the same world as the Lin family.
Li Changan, however, strongly disagreed with his parents' words. He held his mother's calloused hand.
"Mom and Dad, we don't steal or rob. We support ourselves through our own labor. We are no worse than anyone else. In the future, when I have a promising future, I will definitely let you live a good life."
"Okay, okay."
Both Mr. and Mrs. Li's eyes were wrinkled from smiling, and Mother Li looked at Li Changan with a loving face.
"You don't have to worry about your parents. As long as you live a good life, your parents will be satisfied."
