At midnight, the traffic on the road is sparse, and there are no pedestrians in sight for a long time. On the dimly lit old bridge near the welfare home, a series of terrible shadows were still wandering aimlessly, Luo Ying stood in front of the welfare house nervously, raised her hand and wanted to dial the old director's phone, but she was afraid of disturbing her, so she had to put the phone down.

She stood there and listened for a long time, and the cry of the baby from the courtyard never stopped. The cry that went straight into the depths of her mind kept echoing, and she couldn't help but dial the number of the old dean.

Zheng Rui, a female volunteer who stayed in the room to accompany the old dean, was woken up by the sudden ringing of the phone, got up from the bed with a sleepy face, and walked to the landline on the counter next to the old dean's bed. The glow of the bedside lamp pricked her newly awakened nerves, and with a skew of her gaze, she suddenly realized that the dean was not in the room.

"Hey, hello, are you looking for Ms. Dong?" she blinked at the old dean's empty bed, thinking that it might be convenient for her to go out, so she turned her eyes and picked up the phone.

Luo Ying paused as she listened to the female voice on the other end of the phone. "I'm Luo Ying, are you Aunt Zheng?"

"Luo Ying? Well, it's me, it's so late, do you have something to do with the dean? She is not in the room now, she should have gone to the baby room to watch the child. Zheng Rui, who has never heard very well, vaguely heard the cry coming from the direction of the baby's room, and replied to Luo Ying.

"I'm looking for her for something, I'm outside the courtyard gate now, can you come and open the door for me?"

"Uh, oh, okay, I'll go now, hang up. Zheng Rui listened to Luo Ying's anxious tone, but she was surprised but she didn't want to ask anything, so she hung up the phone first.

After she poked her head out of the door, she hurriedly came to the gate of the courtyard and opened the door for Luo Ying.

Dong Ping, the old director of the welfare home, was still holding the baby boy who was crying and coaxing him gently, but no matter how she coaxed, he still cried.

"Dean. ”

When she was exhausted, Luo Ying's voice came from behind her, and she hurriedly turned around. "Luo Ying, it's so late, why are you here?"

"I went to see my friends before I got ready to go home. Passing by here, I heard the crying and I came over, and Aunt Zheng opened the door for me. Luo Ying looked at the baby boy who was crying with his mouth open in the dean's arms.

The dean looked up at her and nodded, then took a tissue to wipe the tears from the baby's cheeks and looked at the room opposite. "He cried so hard that if I hadn't gotten up and brought him here, they would have all woken up. He's been crying for a long time, and it's useless for me to coax him. ”

"I'll hug him, you've been hugging him for so long, your hands are sore. Luo Ying smiled at the dean and reached out to take the baby boy in the blanket.

Seeing him crying, she thought it was very cute. However, he was also very tired and uncomfortable after crying for so long.

The dean nodded, handed the baby boy in his arms to her, and she stroked his cheek and carried him around the room slowly for two times before he stopped crying.

The baby boy closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep in Luo Ying's arms, the dean walked up to her, took him slowly, and whispered to her: "He usually doesn't cry, but today he suddenly cried non-stop, fortunately you can coax him." It's late, so hurry home. ”

"Hmm. She nodded and walked out of the room. If you don't go back, your parents won't see her when they get home later, and they'll be scared again.

She had just stepped onto the small playground when the cry of a baby boy came from behind her. She closed her eyes, lowered her head, sighed, and turned back into the room.

She took him from the dean's hand, coaxing him as she turned, and he quieted down before she handed him over to the dean. She stepped out of the room door again, and as she expected, he began to cry again.

"Dean, why don't you go and rest first, just let me accompany him tonight. I've slept enough during the day, and I'm not sleepy now. If I'm sleepy, there's a bed here, and I'll lie down when I'm tired. Luo Ying returned to the room and smiled and stretched out her hand to the dean. If this continues, the dean will really be suspicious.

Perhaps, she had suspected him for a long time, and he grew much faster than the other children.

The dean thought about it and nodded lightly. "Then I'll get you a new sheet and a blanket. ”

"Well, thank you. She took the baby boy, looked at the dean's departing figure, and sat down in a chair with heavy eyes.

She didn't bother to carry him around anymore.

After the dean changed her sheets, the baby boy in her arms stopped crying, and the dean left the room with peace of mind.

Luo Ying put the baby boy on the bed, and he stopped crying. She went to the corner and called her mother, then walked back to him and sat down.

Now, she's really getting bolder. Usually, when she can't go home for something special, she tells her mother that she is in the same school, and in the face of the vast night, she is calmer than before, and even, at this moment, she knows that he has a problem, but she still stays here alone to accompany him.

If Lin Zhe knew that she was no longer the timid girl who hid beside him in fright at the slightest hint of trouble, hugged his arm tightly, and dared to do anything alone, he would have been more worried about her.

If it weren't for the blood jade in her body, she wouldn't be what she is now, and all the awkwardness was caused by her. If those things hadn't happened during this period, her relationship with Lin Zhe would not have come to this point anyway. It wasn't that she hadn't thought that he wouldn't go to the end with her before, but she could really bless him as soon as she changed her mind. It's just that no matter how much she hates herself now, she can't let herself let go of him, and many times, she is determined to change the situation that is out of control, but she is no match for the power of the Underworld Jade.

She thought about things, and the baby boy next to her suddenly started crying again, disrupting her thoughts.

She smiled and lay down beside him, pulled the blanket over, and put the other half of the blanket over him. "I know you're different, I told you before to stop making trouble, but you're still making trouble for me. I'm very tired today, but I can't make any more noise. ”

She decided to tell Ming about him, and he made such a fuss. It was really impossible for her to believe that he had no special skills.

The night was long, and she didn't really sleep, she just closed her eyes and pretended to sleep and think about things. Every time she opened her eyes, the baby boy was honestly under her gaze. His breathing was getting more and more even, but she wasn't sure if he was really asleep.

She couldn't hold on until dawn, so she had to sleep desperately.

The baby boy next to Luo Ying woke up in the light, and after opening his eyes and turning over to see Luo Ying's sleeping face, he opened his lips with a happy face.

In a European-style independent villa, Nangong Yi woke up early in the morning, and until noon, he never went downstairs to eat breakfast, even if the housekeeper brought breakfast to his room, he let him take it all.

Murong Ling saw the housekeeper's message prompt, walked out of his room, and walked straight to Nangong Yi's door, without knocking on the door, opened the door and walked quickly to him in a deep voice: "What are you doing awkwardly?"

Nangong Yi, who was sitting on the sofa, glanced at her and quickly looked away. "Can you stop running around in a nightdress?"

"Why don't you eat again?" she ignored his question, raised her hand to straighten her skirt, and sat down beside him.

"Not hungry. He pursed his lips and said coldly.

"You didn't eat dinner last night, and you didn't eat breakfast this morning, how can you not be hungry?" Murong Ling didn't buy his perfunctory account, and asked quickly.

"Okay, I'll eat. He sighed helplessly, leaned over and took the landline on the coffee table, and asked the butler to take his breakfast upstairs.

"That's pretty much it. Murong Ling got up and walked out the door with a smile.

Since he promised her that he would eat breakfast, she didn't have to be here to watch him eat, and he knew anyway that if he didn't eat again, the housekeeper would report to her.

After the housekeeper brought breakfast to his room, assistant Yang Xuan also came home and came to his room. He instructed the housekeeper to take good care of Murong Ling, asked her not to disturb him for the time being, and walked to the balcony with the assistant.

The assistant waited quietly for him to finish breakfast before opening up to him: "Miss Luo Ying went to see Miss Ning Ying last night, and on the way home, she turned into the children's welfare home she frequented and stayed until this morning. ”

"Hmm. Nangong Yi looked at the muffled sound of the artificial lake under the balcony, his face was calm, and no one could see what emotions he had.

"As for Miss Xia Wei...... Do you want to find her again? I'll make some arrangements if I need to. The assistant saw that he was not emotional, and then spoke.

"Ho...... I'm not looking for her for a while. He let out a long sigh, turned around and put down his plate, and sat down on the sofa on the balcony.

"Then if she gets a boyfriend, I'll let someone do some sabotage, do you think that's okay?"

"Hmm. So be it. Before Yi Lan goes abroad, don't cut the people who protect her. He leaned back on the couch cushions, frowned and nodded.
