you are so cute

Yunran returned to the restaurant and entered directly through the side door. After a while, Yuan Gui, the shopkeeper, got the news and rushed to the backyard dedicated to Yunran.

In the room with flickering candles, Yun Ran was propping his forehead, playing with the teacup lid in boredom.

Yuan Gui bowed his body, lowered his eyebrows and said pleasingly: "Little boss, you are back, have you used dinner? Do you want to make preparations..."

"No need." Yun Ran didn't have the appetite to eat. He wanted to refuse at first, but after thinking about it, the child who came with him was still hungry, so he changed his words again: "Take this child to eat something."

Yuan Gui looked at the little boy next to him, and couldn't help being very surprised, he brought the child back?Look at this age, isn't it...

Yun Ran raised his eyelids to see how his mind was active, and knew that he must be guessing wildly.

Yun Ran put back the lid of the teacup, stood up slightly and told Yuan Gui, "This child has no family now, so please take care of him for a few days first."

Yuan Gui nodded after listening, "Don't worry, I will take care of the little one with all my heart." Although he was still a little elusive about the boss's intentions, Yuan Gui didn't ask any further questions, and greeted the timid child with a kind smile. He waved and led him out.

Yun Ran turned her head and saw A Zhan's puzzled face, she couldn't help smiling, A Zhan scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

"Treasurer Yuan is already 50 years old. He has not had a son or a daughter. He has always wanted to adopt one. If this child is suitable for him, he can put it under his knees for foster care."

Ah Zhan suddenly realized.

Yun Ran tapped her fingers on the table, her eyes flickered slightly when she thought of something.

He has never been a soft-hearted person. If it weren't for...he wouldn't have brought this child back today.Now that he has brought it back, let him do the good thing to the end and arrange a good place for him.Yuan Gui is a loyal person, and his wife is also kind and kind. If the child really goes to his house, not to mention rich and powerful, at least there will be no shortage of food and drink, and he will not be beaten or scolded.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Yuan Gui came back again, slapped his head, and said to Yun Ran: "Little boss, look at my memory, I forgot to say something."

It turned out that before Yunran came back, there was a disturbance in the restaurant. Fortunately, a young hero came to help, so the restaurant did not suffer heavy losses.Yuan Gui thanked him for preparing a table of meals for him, but the young man asked him with embarrassment if there was anything he could do in the restaurant, in exchange for wages or a place to live.

"Thinking about it, the business has been getting better and better recently, and there are indeed not enough people working in the backyard of the kitchen. I think he is young and strong, and I sincerely decided to keep him. Moreover, he With a child by my side, I really need money..."

"Okay." Yun Ran interrupted him halfway through and waved his hand, "It's up to you to decide on such trivial matters, let's go down."

"Hey." Yuan Gui agreed, bowed and retreated.

After Yuan Gui left, Yun Ran asked A Zhan to go back to the hut next door to rest. He stared at the candlelight for a while, but his head was heavy but he didn't feel sleepy at all.

He got up and opened the door, walked out, he strolled and sat on the stone bench in the yard, swaying slightly back and forth with unresolved drunkenness, raising his face to look at the twinkling stars in the night sky.

A Zhan, who had just taken off his outer shirt, heard the movement here, and quickly ran out of his hut with the sword placed by the bed, and stood by Yun Ran's side.

Yun Ran turned her head and saw A Zhan's appearance, and suddenly bent her eyes and gave a very short smile.

That time, he just passed by and found a ten-year-old beggar fighting a dog for food, and suddenly thought of someone.In such a situation, that person will always go out of his way to help.At that time, he just did what he wanted, bought a few steamed buns on the side of the road and handed them to the child.

Then he showed kindness very rarely, and in exchange for the loyalty of the child named A Zhan, four years later, it is still the same.

If Yunran didn't hate having someone next to his bed when he was sleeping, he would probably stay by his side even at night.

A Zhan writes and knows martial arts, but he can't speak, and he doesn't remember his own life experience. When Yun Ran was looking for his father, he would also take a look for clues about A Zhan's life experience, but it was a pity that nothing was gained. .

At night, the wind began to bring some coolness.

Knowing that A Zhan found out that he hadn't slept, Yun Ran would definitely not go back to sleep, so he beckoned him to get another jug ​​of wine, lifted the lid of the jug, and drank it almost in one gulp. A Zhan was terrified.

After Yunran finished drinking, he laughed loudly and recklessly, with a touching blush on his cheeks.

Holding the flagon in his arms, he looked at the night sky flickeringly and began to talk to himself, word by word, in a very slow tone, "I really... really didn't expect to meet him here."

Occasionally, when Yun Ran was drunk, he would make A Zhan confide in some drunken words that he couldn't understand at all, but today...it seemed a little different, he seemed to be telling something quietly, without any sadness in his tone, but he could hear Ah Zhan felt inexplicably sad.

Moreover, Ah Zhan also vaguely noticed that there was a flash of water in his usually sharp eyes.

"... More than five years, almost six years."

"He's the same as before, still the same, so pissed me off."

"A Ci, why is it called A Ci? Is it because I left without saying goodbye?"

"Bastard! I'm not leaving because..."

"Why did he show up? I thought I had forgotten him, but, knowing that the person outside was him today, I ran out uncontrollably..."

"Lu Changting, Lu Changting, if you dare to appear in front of me again, I will never, never let you go..."

After raving nonsense, he finally couldn't hold his head and fell limply on the stone table.Fortunately, Yun Ran was very light, so A Zhan took Yun Ran, who had fallen asleep, into the room almost effortlessly. Still worried, he simply leaned against the bed with his arms around the sword and watched.

Yun Ran didn't wake up until noon the next day, drank the hangover soup prepared by A Zhan, took a bath and changed clothes, and then read the account book in the study.He didn't know whether it was because of the headache after the hangover, or because his mood was fluctuated and affected by seeing those two people. He read it for a long time, but the account book still stayed on that page.

Yun Ran was upset, so she simply got up, "A Zhan, let's go for a walk."

A Zhan nodded, silently followed behind him, and went out with him.

As a result, the two of them had just walked out of the yard, and within a few steps, they followed the sound and saw a child rushing in, yelling like his butt was on fire, "Don't follow me, don't follow me, go away!" Ferocious dog barking.

After Yun Ran took a closer look at the child's face, her pupils brightened slightly.

This is where Yunran lives, and the people in the restaurant dare not run in at will. Seeing someone running in, Ah Zhan was about to drive the child away, but Yunran stopped him with his hands and said: "Drive the dog away!" Just go."

Ah Zhan understood the meaning and followed suit.

The big wolf dog was chased away by A Zhan, and A Ci, who was chased by the dog until his face was flushed, finally let out a long breath with lingering fear, and sat down on the ground with his blushing little face tired.

Yunran didn't go there, but sat down leisurely on the big rock beside the lotus pond, unfolded the paper fan in his hand and shook it gently.

Without waiting for a moment, the child who came back to his senses got up and leaned over, stood a few steps away, looked at Yunran with some uncertainty, and then smiled in surprise, "It's you!"

"It's me." Yun Ran looked at his bright smile and nodded.

Ah Ci hurriedly moved closer, looking at Yunran's face with big black eyes and sincerely said, "Thank you for saving me just now."

Seeing his head covered in sweat from running, Yun Ran unconsciously changed the direction of the fan in his hand, fanning him while raising a slight smile and asking, "Are you afraid of dogs?"

"I'm afraid, I was almost picked up by a dog when I was a child!"

Children shouldn't joke about this, Yun Ran paused, his brows and eyes condensed, and asked: "Oh? What's going on? Doesn't your father care about you?"

When Ah Ci heard that his stupid father was wronged, he repeatedly denied: "No, in this world, only my father cares about me. He loves me very much... unlike my mother, who disappeared after giving birth to me." I haven't come to see me for so many years..." As he spoke, he deviated from the topic, and seemed to be touched by something sad, his tone dropped, and his eyes quickly turned red.

Yun Ran's expression froze, her eyelashes trembled twice, she retracted her fan with a snap, her eyes looked away unnaturally, and her voice was a bit stagnant, "Your mother...maybe I think it's only good to let you live with your father." It's the best choice."

Ah Ci rubbed his eyes, and after a while he said uncomfortably: "Your Excellency always has such and such difficulties, I know."

Yun Ran was startled when he heard the words, and looked back at his little face quietly, feeling like a stick in his throat.

"But even if you have difficulties... you should come back and see me secretly." The child finally couldn't help but pursed his mouth and complained, his voice was not loud, but there was a strong sense of grievance and loss.
