Chapter 8 Chapter 8

Lu Yi's family lives on the edge of the city, or in the fringe of urban and rural areas.When He Yihan followed him into the dilapidated and narrow house, he felt very uncomfortable.He still remembers the two villas that the Lu family used to occupy exclusively in the family courtyard. He didn't know how Lu Yi calmly accepted such a plummeting life.

Dong Jing went to work, only Lu Yunran stayed at home.When the little girl heard the door open, she ran out bouncing to meet her brother.Seeing Lu Yi's hand in plaster, she froze for a moment, and then saw He Yihan who came in behind, she froze again.

Lu Yi laughed and scratched her nose: "Stupid? I'm fine, I just fell, and I'll be fine in two days. Guess who this little brother is."

Lu Yunran blinked her big eyes and looked at He Yihan, asking her to guess, which meant that she had heard of this brother, but she didn't remember Lu Yi mentioned which classmate matched He Yihan's temperament and appearance.

He Yihan was not as boring as Lu Yi, so he took the initiative to tell his identity: "Hello little sister, I am your elder brother, and I am in the same school as him now. My surname is He, He Yihan."

Lu Yunran was well-behaved: "Hi brother, my name is Ranran."

He Yihan conjured two chocolates out of nowhere, the little girl took them happily and immediately upgraded him to "Brother Hanhan".Lu Yi said with a straight face, "At most two bites a day."

Lu Yunran made a grimace, and said to He Yihan reciprocally: "Brother Hanhan, let me make you some soup at noon."

He Yihan was a little surprised: "You can cook at such a young age?"

"Of course, otherwise my brother is so lazy, I will starve to death."

Lu Yi pressed the top of her hair: "What do you know? I'm cultivating your self-reliance. You can cook because I taught you well." Turning his head, he said to He Yihan: "You're welcome , stay here for lunch, my mother won’t come back until evening.”

He Yihan nodded.

During the whole day, except for lunch time, Lu Yi lay in bed to catch up on sleep. Due to the limited space in the house, he and Lu Yunran shared a room, but they were separated by a big brown board in the middle.He Yihan took out his textbooks and notes, and reviewed them on the other side. Lu Yunran was also doing homework, and occasionally asked He Yihan a few questions that he couldn't solve.She felt that Brother Hanhan spoke more clearly than the teacher, and she understood it completely after listening to it once.

As the sun set, Dong Jing finished her day's work and returned home. Lu Yi also woke up, got up to wash up, and formally introduced He Yihan's identity.Dong Jing has long forgotten that "Yuanyuan" is such a person—Lu Yi was a king of children when he was a child, and there were countless followers around him—but she remembered He Shanhu.

The two came from the same dance troupe. At that time, they were young and their careers were on the rise. Dong Jing was fascinated by Lu Yonglai's fanatical pursuit and decided to retire to become a full-time wife.He Shanhu disagreed, thinking it was a pity for her to do so, and love that required giving up her career was not true love at all.Dong Jing quarreled with her and said very unpleasant things. She felt that the other party was jealous of her receiving a lot of money. Why is it that only the romance she pursues is sex, and hers are nothing? ?

Dong Jing finally left, broke up with He Shanhu, and had no contact with him again, until he appeared in front of her with a big belly a few years later.He Shanhu met "the love of his life", a Frenchman who wandered to China, claimed to be an artist, and traveled around the world just to find a soulmate.He Shanhu spent an unknown amount of money on him, helping him hold art exhibitions, concerts, and buying him various collections.The French found their self-confidence in her, determined to return to China to develop again, and they were bound to stand out, and then took her to live together.

After he left, He Shanhu found out that she was pregnant.Someone in the dance troupe had long been envious of her title of "First Sister", and took this opportunity to expose the matter with some dirty tricks.He Shanhu was fired, and the few remaining savings were used as a fine, and the "pure and clean fairy" fell away.

When Dong Jing saw such a down-and-out ex-girlfriend, she laughed and neither scolded nor scolded her. She said angrily, "Anyway, I have a lot of houses, so you can live if you want. Don't pretend to be pitiful with me." He Shanshan lived in Lu's house for a while. In the past year and a half, Lu Yonglai was busy running around to do business, and she and Dong Jing were basically the only two people in the villa.Not long after He Yihan was born, He Shanhu found a new job, moved out, and rented a small house nearby.

Dong Jing did not expect that the legendary French swindler would actually fulfill his promise one day, just as she did not expect that her family would suffer a sudden disaster, and her husband's relatives would flock to extort all their savings.

He Yihan, who has grown into a young man, appeared as abruptly as his mother, Dong Jing thought, you are really her own.

He Yihan completely regarded Dong Jing as his future mother-in-law. Even if the other party didn't speak for a long time and just looked at him in a daze, he showed great respect and stood there obediently.

Lu Yi rubbed his nose: "Mom? Are you tired? Then you sleep for a while, I'm going to work." After speaking, he pulled He Yihan out of the room, and said apologetically, "My dad has an accident. Afterwards, my mother may be stimulated, and sometimes it will be like this, she will not speak, and I don’t know what she is thinking. If you want to say something, I will convey it to you. The bus will be gone in a while, and I will take a taxi back to school It's expensive over there."

"Then I won't go back."

"??"

Lu Yi wondered: "Xiaohan, I didn't kick you out, you have also seen that my house doesn't have any extra beds to entertain you." Of course there is no sofa.

He Yihan was extremely calm: "I'll sleep with you, I won't squeeze you." Before Lu Yi refused, he said again: "Are you going to work now, Tiancha?"

Sweet Tea is the name of a bar.Lu Yi was stunned for a moment, and stretched out his hand to lock He Yihan's neck: "Be honest, you have investigated me so clearly, are you plotting something wrong? Are you still taking the initiative?"

"I have no plans."

"That can't be done for free, you have to pay."

"..." He Yihan sighed silently, "Is it okay for your hand to go to work?"

"It's no problem, and riding a bicycle is completely fine." Lu Yi squeezed his face, and continued jokingly, "I'm going first, remember to wait for me on the bed in vain."

At nine o'clock, Lu Yunran turned off the alarm clock that sounded on time, and while tidying up the dining table used as a study table, she curiously asked He Yihan who was sitting opposite: "Brother Hanhan, did my brother borrow from your house yesterday? Is he wearing your clothes too?"

"Yeah." He Yihan raised his head, "Are you going to sleep?"

"Yeah, it's okay, I can fall asleep with the light on."

He Yihan took a book and stood up: "It affects the quality of sleep, I'll just read it in the living room, you go to sleep."

Lu Yunran eagerly watched the back of him leaving, thinking that this friend of her brother's is too good-looking, smart and cool, her brother is so happy to have a childhood with such a person, right?

But then again, why does he have to share a bed with his brother? It's so uncomfortable.

He Yihan in the living room didn't know that the little girl had substituted himself into Mary Su's love story. He was so focused on the grammar book in his hand that he didn't even notice that there was someone beside him.

Dong Jing sighed quietly: "You and Coral really look alike."

He Yihan was frightened and stood up: "Auntie...you are awake." To be honest, he inherited more from his father, only his nose resembles He Shanhu, but there is no need to argue.

Dong Jing pulled a chair and sat beside him: "Have you returned to China?"

"No, I'm the only one coming back to school. My mother is still in France." He Yihan recalled his purpose of coming, took out an exquisite pink gift box from his bag, and pushed it in front of Dong Jing, "This is what my mother asked me to hand over to you." of."

Dong Jing froze for a moment, reached out to take it and opened it.Inside is a bank card.She was silent for a moment, then pushed the box back: "I admit that I am short of money, but I can't take this."

He Yihan expected that she would reject it, and was not in a hurry: "Auntie, you deserve this. If you hadn't extended a helping hand to my mother, we might have starved to death on the street—or there would be no me, mother and mother at all." I said frankly that she had no choice but to have an abortion, and you saved my life."

Dong Jing shook her head: "At that time, it was just a little effort, not for your repayment and gratitude. To be honest, if my family had no money, no matter how miserable and pitiful Coral was, I would not talk to her."

"I understand. But my mother also has her thoughts. No matter how you say it, even if you think it doesn't matter, in fact, you are kind to us. The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by the spring. Besides, this sum of money is not much, which is far away. But back then, Auntie, please don’t embarrass me.” He Yihan looked towards the bedroom intentionally or unintentionally, “If you don’t need it, leave it to Ranran, she is a smart child, if she keeps her current grades, she must be able to go Good high school and college, can this money be used as her tuition?"

Dong Jing stopped talking.

He Yihan added the last sentence in a timely manner: "If Auntie still refuses to accept it, I will keep it for Lu Yi directly."

"Don't tell him." Dong Jing didn't want her son's dignity to be overwhelmed by money at all. She accepted the gift box and said bravely, "Please tell Shan Hu, I will return the money to her."

He Yihan followed her and said, "Okay."

Dong Jing went back to the bedroom, weeping secretly.It's so sad, she still lost to He Shanhu, why did she end up like this?
