Chapter 256: Adoption
In the blink of an eye, on the evening of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Chu Jiaojiao accompanied Grandma Chu to eat the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and recently Chu Zhengliang also seemed to have opened his mind, and never went out to gamble again.
Chu Jiaojiao coaxed Grandma Chu to sleep, and accompanied the neighbor's children to set off fireworks.
The brilliant yellow sparks bloomed quietly in her hands, her eyebrows and eyes smiled, and there was a bright smile on her delicate face, which opened in someone's heart, which seemed to be a little more gorgeous than this fireworks.
Somewhere under a big tree, a man has a lollipop in his mouth and his eyes are fixed on a playful woman.
His eyes were domineering, hot, mixed with a hint of darkness, and a little affectionate.
She was laughing, and it was glaring.
He thought, sneered lightly, then turned and walked out into the night.
Chu Jiaojiao was having a good time, and she caught a glimpse of a long shadow, which she felt a little familiar.
The man in the sweatshirt, his back fell in the night, and there were fireworks not far away, which made his back even more lonely.
The nerves in her mind suddenly tensed, how could he be here?
The phone call between her and Qin Leshuang seemed to ring in her ears.
"Jiaojiao, is Ah Ci going to celebrate the New Year with you this year?" She asked, there were some other noises in the microphone besides her voice, and the Qin family seemed to be very lively.
"Nope." Chu Jiaojiao replied that she was eating snacks made by Grandma Chu at that time.
"Uh, you're not together?" Qin Leshuang also seemed surprised.
"Didn't he come home?"
"Since he became an adult, he has never had a New Year in the Qin family."
"Oh." Chu Jiaojiao didn't know how to answer, she lowered her eyes and thought again, "Sister Leshuang, I broke up with Jiang Ci." ”
It's not a way to do this, she has to draw a clear line with Jiang Ci.
The other side was silent for several minutes, Chu Jiaojiao thought she would hang up, but heard her shallow voice coming, "Jiaojiao, let me tell you a story!" ”
Chu Jiaojiao didn't refute, she could vaguely feel what story Qin Leshuang would say.
The memory was cut off in the middle, and the back in front of him gradually turned into a small dot.
Chu Jiaojiao hesitated to catch up, and a child pulled her clothes and asked, "Sister Jiaojiao, do you want to light fireworks?" ”
"Don't play, Sister Jiaojiao has something to do." The eyes are a little blurry, and the appearance of the little boy in front of him seems to slowly coincide with the story.
The children who were anxious to stay in the orphanage were picked by countless people with their heads down. The people around him went back and forth, but no one chose him.
He couldn't smile, he was small, he wore ill-fitting clothes, and he was covered in a down-and-out look.
His eyes were too cold, and he looked at others with arrogance and indifference, and everyone who walked by shook their heads, as if they disliked him.
Children who don't like to laugh are too gloomy, who knows if they can be raised.
The dean taught bitterly, "Jiang Ci, you smile at those people, so that there will be families willing to adopt you." ”
He didn't reply, as always.
It wasn't until the girl in the small white ocean group reached out to him that his life changed dramatically.
"Jiaojiao, Ah Ci has had a hard time in the past, although I don't know what happened to him, it took two whole years for him to say the first sentence, he said, 'I have no family'." Qin Leshuang was silent before continuing, "Later, I decided to be his family member and become his sister. ”
