Chapter 138 Extra if line (3)

Ji Min's request is not impossible.

But it needs to be reported to the relevant departments.

That day, Ji Min called Ji's nursing home.

After the age of twelve, Ji Min has not made any requests to his grandfather.

Most of the things are handled by himself.

This time is an exception.

Grandpa Ji seems to be less involved in things. He

is also very tolerant of Ji Min, the heir, most of the time.

But the premise is that Ji Min can take on the position of heir.

Ji Min wants to bring a lost child home.

The old man just asked about the child's age, and after learning the process, he agreed to Ji Min's request to take the child back for temporary stay.

The next day, housekeeper Chen took all the materials to go through the formalities.

In the afternoon, the doctor confirmed that the child was fit to be discharged.

Ji Min took the child home.

The car slowly drove away from the hospital.

The child sat in the safety seat in the car.

He was very quiet, did not cry, and did not ask where to go.

He seemed to have learned about his situation from the words of the adults around him. He

knew that he was a child without a home.

So he became more attached to Ji Min, the only person he knew.

Wherever Ji Min went, he would follow closely.

On the contrary, Ji Min was somewhat excited.

It was as if he had picked up a little life that belonged to him.

The car entered the Ji residence.

The Ji family's house is a large duplex courtyard.

There are several courtyards and many rooms.

When the child got off the car and saw such a large and complex courtyard, he was a little confused.

The surroundings were completely unfamiliar.

This made him unable to help but take a small step back and stretched out his hand to tightly grasp the corner of Ji Min's clothes.

Sensing his fear, Ji Min lowered his head and called softly: "Ranran."

"Huh?" The child immediately perked up, looked up at him and asked, "Are you calling me?"

"Who else if not you?"

Ji Min simply bent down and picked up the child.

The child's eyes lit up when he heard that he had a name.

He repeated in a low voice: "My name is Ranran?"

He was a little happy again, and said to Ji Min: "Then next time the police sister comes to ask me, I can tell them."

Ji Min smiled.

As soon as he walked into the door, a servant came to greet him and bowed respectfully: "Young Master is back."

Ji Min's smile faded, and he said "hmm" in a slightly cold tone.

The child in the arms shook his feet and wanted to get down when he saw people.

He said a little embarrassedly: "Ranran has grown up and can't let others hold her."

The servant also came forward and stretched out his hand to take the child.

Ji Min waved his hand but didn't let go.

He pinched the child's face, showed him the long and winding road in the yard, and asked:

"Are you sure you want to walk by yourself?"

The child turned his head and took a look.

The environment in front of him was large and unfamiliar, as if he would get lost if he was not careful.

He tried hard to nod, but his two little hands still honestly hugged Ji Min's neck.

Ji Min couldn't help wanting to laugh, but was afraid of scaring the child.

So he whispered to the child's ear: "The road ahead is too difficult to walk, big brother is very scared, can you let big brother hold Ranran?"

Hearing this, the child immediately stood up. He

patted his shoulder sympathetically and said: "Big brother, don't be afraid, Ranran will accompany you."

Ji Min continued to carry the child and walked forward.

But servants kept greeting him along the way.

The child lay on his shoulder for a while, and his ears gradually turned red.

After a while, the child whispered: "Big brother, are you lying to me? Are you really scared?"

Ji Min didn't expect this kid to be so smart.

He paused, leaned close to the child's ear, and whispered: "Really, I'm scared every time I come back, but I just pretend that I'm not afraid at all."

This made the child laugh.

The child also whispered in a whispering voice: "Ranran is also scared, and he is pretending not to be scared at all."

Ji Min hugged him and laughed, thinking that you are not pretending at all.

From the gate to Ji Min's residence, you have to pass through two courtyards.

The child is not heavy, and Ji Min is not tired to hold him.

But after holding him for a while, he felt that the child's limbs in his arms were a little stiff.

Ji Min had no experience in taking care of people, and thought that his holding posture was wrong, so he lowered his head and asked: "What's wrong, where do you feel uncomfortable?" Unexpectedly

, the child blushed and said: "My shoes, my shoes are going to fall off."

After saying this, the child's feet that were trying hard to hook finally used up the last bit of strength.

The small shoes on his feet fell to the ground with a "pop".

Ji Min looked at the shoes on the ground, feeling a little amused.

He held the child and placed him on the edge of the flowerbed.

He bent down to pick up the shoes, then squatted down to put them on the child.

Only then did he realize that because the shoes were prepared temporarily, the size was a little bigger and they didn't fit the child's feet.

After putting on the shoes, Ji Min looked up and stared at the child in front of him for a while.

The child was embarrassed because his shoes fell off, and his ears were a little red.

Ji Min reached out to touch the child's forehead and asked him:

"Since your shoes are about to fall off, why didn't you tell me? It's not a big deal."

"But...but big brother is already very tired just holding me." said the child.

Ji Min didn't know what to say for a moment.

He stretched out his hands and rubbed the child's face for a long time before he stood up and said, "Don't worry about these things in the future." He

entered the living room.

Butler Chen had already arranged for someone to clean up the room.

Ji Min didn't like outsiders to stay in the yard.

After the servants were done with their work, he closed the gate and played with the child in the yard for a while.

The child was a little restrained at first.

But after all, he was young and curious, and soon he couldn't help but strolling around in the yard.

When it was time for dinner, the child was still very easy to take care of.

He sat obediently on the chair and ate whatever the adults gave him.

But Ji Min always felt something was wrong.

After watching the child eat for a while, Ji Min finally understood.

The child would eat when Butler Chen gave him food.

If he didn't, he wouldn't ask for it.

Children of this age are the noisiest when eating, often making a lot of noise and pointing at a certain dish to eat.

But this kid has been silent and never said what he wants.

How is this the same as when he was a child visiting other people's homes?

So polite.

Ji Min's eyebrows slowly raised as he watched.

But he is a child after all, no matter how well he pretends, his eyes will be flawed.

Seeing Butler Chen holding the serving chopsticks and picking up the candied pineapple in the middle of the table.

The child's eyes lit up instantly.

Ji Min suddenly felt playful.

He reached out and took the serving chopsticks from Butler Chen's hand, and the child's eyes immediately shifted to his hand.

Ji Min secretly curled the corners of his mouth.

The tip of the chopsticks stayed on the candied pineapple for a moment, and then made a sharp turn and picked up the spinach and tofu next to it.

The child was confused by this operation.

The surprise of seeing the candied pineapple was still on his face, but his eyes could only watch with disappointment as the spinach and tofu were put into his bowl.

But this disappointment was small.

He still picked up the chopsticks obediently and ate all the spinach in the bowl.

But he obviously didn't like vegetables very much, and he ate very slowly.

Ji Min found it a little interesting.

He ate two mouthfuls of rice casually and picked up the serving chopsticks again.

The child immediately raised his head from the bowl and continued to look at the plate of candied pineapple.

But the serving chopsticks in Ji Min's hand made another U-turn and picked up the celery and pork shreds on the side.

And it was all celery.

The child stared at the green celery in the bowl and could only eat slowly again.

He must hate celery.

At the end, his little face wrinkled unconsciously, and he even pursed his lips and made a motion as if he wanted to vomit.

But he probably had been taught not to be picky about food.

The child finally ate it all.

After eating, he even showed a relieved expression.

Ji Min laughed in his heart.

He couldn't even take care of eating himself, and picked up food for the child.

But the housekeeper Chen standing by couldn't stand it anymore.

He coughed softly and reminded, "Master, you still have classes in the evening."

"Okay, got it." Ji Min rolled his eyes.

This time he didn't tease the child, but reached out to pick up a piece of pineapple.

But when he was about to put it in the child's bowl, he raised his chopsticks again.

Seeing that the pineapple that was about to enter the bowl was about to fly away, the child was a little anxious.

Ji Min smiled and said, "Hey, does Ranran like celery more? I'd better pick up celery for Ranran."

The child was so anxious that he wanted to stand up. After

holding it in for a long time, he uttered, "Ranran wants to eat pineapple, Ranran likes to eat pineapple."

Hearing this, Butler Chen who was standing aside also laughed.

Ji Min immediately put the pineapple into the child's bowl and said,

"Ranran likes to eat pineapples, but if Ranran doesn't tell me, how can I know?"

After watching the child finish the pineapple, Ji Min asked him again, "What else does Ranran want to eat?"

The child hesitated for a while.

The encouraging look of the boy in front of him gave him some courage.

He was a little embarrassed, but he bravely pointed to the plate of pineapples and said, "I want to drink the sugar water inside."

Hearing this, Ji Min directly brought the whole plate of pineapples to him.

At this moment, stars even flashed in the child's eyes.

Ji Min found it funny, but couldn't help but sigh what kind of life this child had lived before.

When he first saw the clothes Ranran was wearing, Ji Min thought he should have a good family background.

But seeing the child so well-behaved and independent in the hospital, he felt like a child from a poor family.

But his daily dining etiquette was too good.

Most importantly, Ji Min always felt that this kid was young, but he was willing to sacrifice himself to make others happy.

This was not common in children of this age.

The child had limited energy and began to feel sleepy after eating.

It was getting dark.

When it was time to go to bed, the fact that he was homeless weighed on him like a mountain.

The child became sleepy again.

At this time, Ji Min had already gone to the study to attend class.

Only housekeeper Chen was left in the living room.

Ranran walked around the strange and empty living room for a while.

As if he wanted to go home, he raised his foot to walk out of the living room.

But when he saw the dark yard outside, he stopped.

The child looked up at Butler Chen who was standing not far away and asked, "Uncle, will Ranran live here from now on?"

Butler Chen bent down, nodded at him, and said, "Do you want to see your room?"

The children's room was well decorated, with everything it should have, and there were many toys.

But the child stood by the door frame for a while, not very interested.

He looked up again, looked at Butler Chen, and asked, "Uncle, then... will big brother stay here too?"

Butler Chen nodded: "Yes, the young master has always lived here."

He pointed to Ji Min's room to the child.

Hearing this, the child seemed to have found someone to rely on, and finally felt at ease. He

stepped into the child's room obediently.

In the study, Ji Min listened to the lecturer's financial knowledge boredly.

He had no interest in this kind of thing that was obviously very simple, but had to be explained with difficult theories.

His mind was always wandering.

He was wondering where Ranran would sleep tonight.

Although someone had cleaned up the child's room.

But aren't children of this age very clingy?

What if... Ranran wants to sleep with him?

Ji Min likes this little guy very much.

But he has a very strong sense of boundaries since he was a child, and has never slept with others.

He is also not used to others entering his private space.

But... what if Ranran cries?

Ji Min was struggling for a long time, raised his hand and said to the tutor: "Take a break first."

Then he opened the door of the study and called Butler Chen over.

When Butler Chen came, he took off his coat and rolled up his sleeves.

Ji Min thought for a while, and said in one go: "If Ranran doesn't want to sleep alone later, can you please sleep with him, Uncle Chen?"

Unexpectedly, after hearing his words, Butler Chen was silent and said: "You worry too much."

"Huh?" Ji Min was puzzled.

Butler Chen turned aside and showed him the closed door of the children's room.

And added: "Ranran is already asleep."

"Ah?" Ji Min was incredulous.

He was a little unwilling and asked, "Didn't he insist on seeing big brother and asking big brother to tell him a bedtime story?"

Butler Chen was silent again.

But he still shook his head honestly: "No. He brushed his teeth by himself, I helped him take a bath, and then he went to bed."

After saying that, he didn't forget to stab him: "Very well-behaved, not difficult to pester at all."

Ji Min: "..."

The boy slammed the door and went back to class angrily.

Until the next morning, Ji Min still found it incredible.

He got up, ran out without washing, opened the door of the children's room and took a look.

The child was sleeping soundly.

Ji Min was very annoyed when the child insisted on sleeping with him in his mind, and didn't know how to refuse.

Now he found that the child didn't want to sleep with him at all.

Ji Min was even more troubled!

No way, why should such a young child be so independent?

After being indignant for a long time, Ji Min went back to wash up with a sigh.

It is summer vacation now.

But Ji Min still has heavy schoolwork every day.

Part of it is the courses he was originally scheduled for.

Part of it is the "price" he has to pay for bringing Ranran back to Ji's house.

Ji Min sat in the study early.

Today the lecturer is talking about a very famous acquisition case in the industry, and Ji Min is a little interested.

But occasionally he would be distracted and look at the time.

The door of the study was not closed.

After the acquisition case was finished, Ji Min finally heard the "click-click" footsteps coming from outside.

Ji Min's mouth curled up slightly.

The footsteps outside stopped and started, and finally, stopped in front of the study door.

Ji Min turned his head to look over.

He thought the child would come in, and was about to wave.

But he saw that the child just stopped outside the study obediently.

When he looked up and met his gaze, he turned around and ran away.

Ji Min was stunned for a moment.

He waited for a while, but the child did not come in again.

It seemed that he was taken to the restaurant for breakfast by Butler Chen.

Ji Min could feel that the child should want to come in.

When he first came to a strange place, Ranran had a natural attachment and closeness to him.

Sure enough, after a while, Ji Min saw half of a furry little head by the window of the study.

The window of the study was a bit high, and the child should be standing on tiptoe to look inside.

Ji Min couldn't help but want to laugh.

On the one hand, he thought the child was so cute and wanted to look at him for a while longer.

On the other hand, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. If he wanted to come in, he could come in. But if he

didn't come in, he couldn't help but peek. What was this?

But when Ji Min wanted to talk to the child, the child immediately retracted his head as soon as he noticed his gaze.

Outside the window.

Ranran squatted cautiously.

He didn't know why he had to hide, but he hid subconsciously.

As if he had done something wrong.

Ranran was still a little scared.

I don’t know if the big brother will be angry if I peeked.

But Ranran really wants to see the big brother.

Very, very much.

Finally, the child can’t help it, so he stood up again, tiptoed and carefully looked into the window.

When he raised his head, he bumped into the boy’s smiling eyes.
