Yu Zhan's heart skipped a beat. Brother Xiao Qi, is it him?
What baffled him most was that his house had been completely renovated. Even if it were torn down and rebuilt, it would take time. It had only been a little over a month, which was too fast and felt a bit unreal.
Yu Zhan dared not go in, for fear of seeing Nan Qi.
If it really was him who helped, I'm afraid I could never repay his kindness in this lifetime.
He originally didn't want to have too much to do with him.
Just as the boy's thoughts were in turmoil, a familiar figure walked out of the door. Tall, handsome, and sunny, these words alone would not have been associated with him in the past.
When combined, they become an even more unattainable existence.
But that person just kept helping him.
Even without his knowledge.
Help him teach his roommate who bullied him a lesson, help him communicate with school leaders to get a single room, and 100,000 yuan...
Now they're even helping him renovate the place where his family lives.
When the little dog Sheng saw his older brother, his eyes lit up instantly, and he hopped over to him. From afar, you could hear his loud shout: "Big brother! Big brother's back!"
When the children in the family heard this, they all rushed out.
The Yu family has been making quite a stir lately, and the neighbors are all watching. Most of them are incredibly envious and are whispering among themselves. Some say Yu Zhan went to steal or rob, some say Yu Zhan sold his organs, and others say the Yu family dug up some treasure and made a fortune by reselling it.
Some neighbors even called the police, but after investigation, it turned out that nothing of the sort had happened.
The puppy barked once, and many people poked their heads out to see what was happening.
Let's see if Yu Zhan is missing any limbs.
When you fall on hard times, your neighbors may sympathize with you and give you handouts. But once you become wealthy, people's jealousy begins to fester, and they will constantly wish misfortune upon your family.
Just over a month ago, the Yu family lived in a dilapidated mud house.
During this period, they witnessed a large number of people building houses, faster than bamboo shoots after a spring rain, finishing in about ten days. There was also decoration work, with people working day and night in shifts.
It was all set up a week ago, and then seven or eight big trucks delivered furniture and air conditioners. They looked so valuable that they made some people's teeth ache.
Yu Zhan's younger siblings all changed into new clothes and shoes.
The speed was so fast that no one could adapt.
During the move, Nanqi took Yu's father to Kyoto to find the most authoritative experts to treat and regulate his parents' illnesses. The main thing was to avoid overexertion, and Yu's father's spirits improved a lot.
He didn't know how to express his gratitude to Nanqi.
Nanqi would always shake his head with a smile.
He calculated the time; Yu Zhan should be back from school by now.
He thought he would come back in the middle of the month, and was a little worried that Yu Zhan would be angry if she saw the demolished house. But he didn't come back for more than a month, and the house was all rebuilt.
"Big brother, you're finally back! Brother Xiaoqi built a big house for our family. My room has Ultraman figures, and Brother Xiaoqi also bought me lots of clothes. Big brother, you have a big room too, come and see!"
The little dog, Sheng, bounced around his brother's feet like a little dog.
He was so happy, he was holding his brother's hand.
He loves the new house, the new clothes, and the handsome older brother.
There used to be only two rooms. My parents and younger siblings slept in one room, and the other room was shared by several brothers and sisters.
Yu Zhan is getting older, and he needs to avoid his sister.
They could only use two long benches and a broken plank pieced together in the main room as a simple bed, and they slept there for nine years.
As Yu Zhan grew older, her younger brothers started sleeping outside, and her younger sister grew up and wanted more privacy, so the space she could sleep in became smaller and smaller.
The Yu family is destined for disaster, no matter where they are placed.
If it weren't for Nanqi, they would have continued to collapse.
Because no one in the family can handle things, even though Yu Zhan is an adult, he is weak-willed and would rather suffer in silence than face unbearable consequences.
Being bullied in college, without Nan Qi, would mean being trampled on at the very bottom in society as well. It's no exaggeration, because Yu Zhan really doesn't know how to handle people and can be easily manipulated.
Looking at the boy's dumbfounded expression.
Nanqi walked over, carrying a cotton coat in his hand.
Cover the remaining cup with it.
It's already winter, and I'm still wearing thermal underwear; my hands are turning purple from the cold.
"I'm back."
There was no excessive welcome, just a simple sentence that instantly brought tears to Yu Zhan's eyes.
Nanqi took the luggage from his hands and led the little girl home.
Yu Zhan followed in a daze.
While Mrs. Yu was cooking in the kitchen, Mr. Yu chuckled, “Xiao Zhan is back. How is he at school? Our house is all thanks to Xiao Qi. I don’t know how to thank him enough. Xiao Qi said he’s leaving tomorrow, and I can’t persuade him to stay no matter what I do. Can you talk to him?”
Nanqi told Yu's father that he was Yu Zhan's good friend.
Yu Zhan's already sore eyes burst into tears when she heard that the other person was leaving.
When a person is in the dark, and a beam of light suddenly appears to illuminate their path, they will subconsciously follow it, no matter where it leads them.
He makes your life better and provides you with the greatest convenience, especially emotional support. Once you get used to it, you can't break free. He pushes the light away once, and he can't bear to push it away a second time.
When Nanqi saw that he was crying, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and kindly wiped the boy's tears. Since he was a boy, Yu's father did not think much of it.
Yu Zhan was startled and instinctively looked towards his father.
Yu's father just looked at him with concern.
"What's wrong, Xiaozhan? Are you feeling unwell?"
Yu Zhan shook his head, took off his clothes and put them aside, then pulled Nan Qi outside. The neighbors were peeking in, and the new house was unfamiliar to him. In the end, he took Nan Qi to the bamboo grove and small pond.
Aside from doing laundry in the morning, hardly anyone comes here.
The two stopped.
Nanqi took off his cotton-padded coat and put it on Yuzhan, put his icy hands in his pockets, zipped it up, rubbed his little head, and smiled: "Don't worry, it won't cause you any trouble. I booked a flight for tomorrow night, we're leaving tomorrow."
"I probably won't be coming back. You need to eat well and dress properly. You should wear the clothes I bought for you, otherwise they'll be a waste. Are you getting used to living in the dorm?"
Yu Zhan's vision was already blurred; he couldn't see clearly because his eyes were full of tears.
He already had difficulty speaking clearly, and now his throat feels like it's stuffed with cotton.
The boy cried.
Nan Qi's smile faded, and he took a step back, saying:
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bother you. I just wanted to make your life easier. You're back for the holidays now, so spend the New Year with your family. Don't go out to work part-time anymore. I gave your dad some money, saying it was your competition prize money. You don't need to pay me back. Consider it compensation for your emotional distress."
After Nanqi finished speaking, he turned and left, and Yu Zhan was already crying with tears streaming down her face.

Yu Zhan ran over quickly, wrapped her arms around Nan Qi's waist from behind, and cried out in a trembling voice, "No, no, no, no..."
He wanted to say, "Don't go, don't leave, I don't want you to go, I'm willing..."
There were many, many things, but he was too emotional right now. He was afraid that Nanqi would leave, and in his anxiety, he could not speak properly and could only keep vomiting.
Nanqi's lips curled slightly.
She sighed softly, turned around, straightened the boy, and gently bent down. "Don't let gratitude cloud your judgment." She wiped away the boy's tears with her thumb. "Good boy."
