Chapter III

Outside the window, the sun is shining strongly, and inside the car, the air conditioner is on, and the cool feeling forms a strong contrast with the outside.

As a child, it is always easy to get sleepy, especially in such a comfortable environment, Ji Ruojin was held by Shen Chenglin and fell asleep inadvertently.

Shen Chenglin watched, without any thoughts in his heart, and sat there until the car stopped in a certain courtyard.

At this moment, he was already holding Ji Ruojin in one posture, his whole body was numb, and he felt uncomfortable when he moved, but he was still unwilling to let others come over to hug Ji Ruojin, and he insisted on hugging Ji Ruojin to get out of the car.

Because he didn't want to wake her up, he directly carried her into the room he had prepared and let her continue to sleep in bed.

The maids, the first time they saw him like this, they only felt incredible, they usually didn't have much contact with Shen Chenglin, and Shen Chenglin didn't come here often.

Ji Ruojin was still asleep in the room, Shen Chenglin had already left, and before leaving, he explained everything to the maid clearly.

When Ji Ruojin woke up again, it was already six o'clock in the evening, and the sun had set, but because it was summer, the sky had not yet darkened.

When she woke up at a glance, she saw the unfamiliar environment, but she did not panic, because these days, she has woken up several times, all in a strange place, and she is used to being unfamiliar.

So this time she got out of bed with ease, tiptoed open the door of the room, and looked at the world outside the door with curious eyes.

But all I saw was an empty corridor, which looked gloomy because there was no light.

I was too young, and in the face of this long and dark corridor, I only felt scared, and I cried out directly, which startled the maid downstairs.

"Miss is awake, go up quickly. The butler spoke first.

One of the maids simply put down the work in her hand and trotted up to the second floor.

"Miss. Seeing the little Ji Ruojin lying on the door crying, the maid was also panicked and hurriedly stepped forward to speak.

"Woo woo~" Ji Ruojin was still crying, seeing that the maid was not relieved.

"Miss, don't cry, let's make you something to eat. The maid whispered in a comforting voice.

Ji Ruojin looked at the maid crying, did not nod or shake her head, but the crying voice gradually disappeared, leaving only a pair of eyes that looked moving because she had cried.

The maid looked at it and felt deep pity in her heart, whether she agreed or not, she carried her downstairs directly.

Walking through the dark corridor, I saw the light at the staircase, probably too dazzling, and when Ji Ruojin saw it for the first time, her first reaction was to bury her little head deep in the maid's arms.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" asked the maid, puzzled.

Ji Ruojin didn't answer, her little hands dragged the maid's clothes, and when she looked up again, her eyes were full of flickering uneasiness.

Anyone can see the feeling of fear.

"Miss, don't be afraid, we'll make you something to eat. The maid's restless eyes drifted to the housekeeper, and then to Ji Ruojin, before she said a word.

"Brother. Ji Ruojin only uttered two identical words.

The housekeeper understood as soon as he heard it, and went directly to comfort him.

"Miss, the young master will be back in a while, the young master is at home and waiting, and the elder brother can come back. ”

"Really?" Ji Ruojin didn't believe it.

"Really. "The housekeeper is sure.

The child believed it, nodded reluctantly, and struggled out of the maid's arms again, and obediently sat on the big sofa in the living room and waited, just as when he was still with his mother, he sat on the sofa every day and waited for his mother.

However, she no longer has a mother, and her brother says that she is dead.

Thinking that she didn't have a mother, she felt sad, and when she was sad, the corners of her mouth drooped directly, and she looked like she was about to cry.

When the maid saw that the whole person was in a hurry, she hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her.

"But, sister, Jin Jin will not have a mother anymore, and my brother said that Jin Jin's mother is dead. The child had a flat mouth and a crying voice, saying words that even adults could not help but feel sad when they heard it.

"Miss......" The maid did not know what words to use to comfort her.

"No, Jin Jin won't have a mother anymore. ”

"There will be no more mothers. ”

"Not anymore. ”

......

The child kept repeating the same words, accompanied by words and broken crying, tears in his eyes that could not be stopped.

It was at this time that Shen Chenglin walked in with her favorite red panda doll.

The maid's gaze touched him, and she noticed the anger hidden in his eyes, and the whole person panicked, as if she could see the blame for herself in Shen Chenglin's eyes.

"Young master, I'm ...... I ......" she panicked and spoke incoherently.

"Go down, and I'll comfort her. Shen Chenglin was not angry, but replied a little helplessly.

"Yes, young master. The maid was relieved.

After answering Shen Chenglin, she quickly escaped from the living room and ran to a place in the huge villa.

Shen Chenglin looked straight at her back and fled, shook his head, and then changed to an extremely gentle appearance, walked to the sofa, squatted down, and looked at the little girl who had been crying.

"Jinjin, tell my brother why you're crying?" he asked with great patience.

"Jin Jin has no mother, my brother said that Jin Jin's mother is dead, Jin Jin wants a mother, why can't my brother find Jin Jin's mother?" the little girl replied crying, also crying and questioning.

"Jin Jin, Jin Jin will understand when he grows up in the future. Shen Chenglin still had great patience.

He thought, in this life, in addition to treating Ji Ruojin, he has grown so big, and he is not so patient with anyone, it is clear that Ji Ruojin is the child of his enemy, but since he saw Ji Ruojin today, he has a heart that does not want to hurt him.

How cute and innocent a child is, how can he really be so cruel to hurt?

However, what does a child understand, and what is wrong with needing a mother.

So Ji Ruojin still cried and asked him about his mother, and gradually exhausted his patience and let him wander back and forth on the edge of anger.

"Jin Jin, is it bad to have a brother without a mother?" he asked her one last time.

He thought that if Ji Ruojin said that he wanted his mother again this time, he would throw Ji Ruojin into the utility room on the second floor and close it for a night, he wouldn't care if she was a four-year-old child or not.

Ji Ruojin seemed to see his impending anger, held back her tears, looked very aggrieved, nodded, and stretched out her cute little hand, looking like she wanted to hug.

Shen Chenglin finally got a little better, and gave her the red panda doll in his hand, and then picked her up, coaxed her like a child, and kept walking back and forth in the living room.

The sky gradually darkened.
