Chapter 3755 - 3746: I Want to Go Back and Take a Look
Chapter 3755: Chapter 3746: I Want to Go Back and Take a Look
In the next three days, Liang Ruoxu stayed at the orphanage, playing with the children and solving some problems the orphanage faced.
But somehow, Liang Ruoxu’s schedule got exposed, and people visited every day to greet and chat with her.
This made Wang Cuiping and Zhao Quanfu nervous, so they pulled Lin Yi aside.
"Son, what exactly does Ruoxu do? Why are people coming to see her every day? And judging by their demeanor, they seem to be officials."
"She’s just a civil servant. Those who come to see her are local colleagues."
"The problem is, these people seem to hold significant positions. Why are they all looking for her?"
"Because she’s competent." Lin Yi laughed heartily,
"You don’t need to inquire about these things. Your future responsibility is to maintain your health, look after the orphanage, and ask me if you need money. Don’t worry about anything else."
"Try to talk some sense into him." Zhao Quanfu said with a cigarette dangling, speaking sarcastically:
"I tell him every day, but he won’t listen, always sticking his nose into everything."
"Don’t worry about me," Wang Cuiping spat, "I need to get to the bottom of this."
"It’s none of your business how it goes. It’s their young people’s stuff. Just mind your own business."
"My dad’s right. At our age, you should worry less."
"There’s nothing in the orphanage to worry me. My worry is all focused on you," Wang Cuiping said:
"You brought back two, and if you meet, you’ll be caught in the middle, not having a good time."
"Relax, I can handle this small matter. You don’t have to worry about it."
"There’s already a child; worrying won’t help. But you must be careful not to mess up."
"Don’t worry, I know."
"I heard from Ruoxu you plan to go back tomorrow? Not staying a few more days?"
"Her unit has work, can’t stay long. A few days is enough."
"It’s not that I don’t want you here, but I want to spend more time with my grandson."
"That’s simple, next time you get a chance, head to Jing City and have her host you."
"Forget it, their parents are officials, and I’m just an ordinary folk. We’re not on the same level. I don’t want to make things awkward."
"You’re wrong there. Before we came, her parents said they’d like to visit you. Even though the social classes differ, they’re very kind, not as exaggerated as you think."
"Nonetheless, it’s better to see them less. I feel guilty seeing their parents — don’t know what to say. As long as you two are happy, that’s what matters most."
Lin Yi laughed heartily and put his arm around Wang Cuiping’s shoulder.
"I know how you feel, but we don’t care about these things. You shouldn’t, either."
"As a mom, how can I not think about it?"
"Thinking won’t help. You can’t solve the problem, so just stop thinking altogether."
"Alright, you handle your own affairs; I’m too tired to manage you."
"That’s the spirit."
The mother and son chatted for a while, then went on with their business.
After greeting all the visitors, Liang Ruoxu returned to Lin Yi’s side.
"What’s Yaoyao’s deal? She told me yesterday she wanted to take the civil service exam, but today she says she’s going for graduate school."
The person Liang Ruoxu called Yaoyao is also a child from the orphanage, currently in her senior year, planning to take the civil service exam for a stable job.
"I had my mom talk to her, to avoid mentioning this in front of you."
"Why can’t she mention it? Not treating me like family?"
"How could she not see you as family? Just didn’t want to burden you."
"Can’t handle big things, but small ones like this are doable."
"It mainly depends if she’s cut out for it. If she’s not capable or too careless, you’ll have to clean up the mess."
"Then let her go the conventional route. She can take the exams first. If she passes the written part, it shows she’s got some ability. We can give her special consideration during the interview. Shouldn’t be too risky."
"You don’t need to worry about their affairs. I’m their older brother; I’ll handle it."
"No matter what, as a sister-in-law, I should help them in some way."
"President Ji hasn’t done anything either, so there’s no pressure on you."
"Alright then, if you need help, just ask. No need to keep it hidden." Liang Ruoxu said:
"But with your skills, organizing things for the orphanage kids shouldn’t be a problem."
"Definitely, I can manage these small issues."
After chatting for a bit, Ning Yue arrived and took Liang Ruoxu out to have fun, taking the kids along to experience the local scenery and cuisine.
These days, Liang Ruoxu was having a blast, having not had an outing like this in a long time.
Early the next morning, Liang Ruoxu started packing, ready to return to Jing City with Lin Yi.
Wang Cuiping was a bit reluctant, mostly to part with Little Lin Cheng.
But there’s no choice; both are busy with work, and staying so many days already was nice.
Before they left, Wang Cuiping and the others prepared gifts for the kids, and in this situation, it wasn’t the time to be polite, so Liang Ruoxu accepted them all.
After lunch, the two prepared to leave.
Wang Cuiping held the child and wiped her tears for quite a while.
She consistently said to bring the child back often.
After leaving, Wu Feiyue drove them to the airport, and the family of three flew back to Jing City.
After landing, Shen Shuyi didn’t let them go home but asked them to bring the child to the Group, having missed him during the few days apart.
While having dinner together at night, they talked about the recent days’ happenings, enjoying the family time.
The next day, Lin Yi called Ning Che, and they went together to the Central Guards Brigade.
"How are groups two and four doing?"
"In about two days’ time, they’ll reach the first search point. No idea if there’ll be new findings." Ning Che said offhandedly.
"That depends on luck." Lin Yi pondered:
"Where are the people from the White Bear Organization? Have they turned back?"
"Haven’t heard anything like that. They probably wouldn’t dare." Ning Che commented:
"The Kaijie Group folks aren’t dumb; they’re targeting you. Attacking the Central Guards Brigade indiscriminately would be insane."
Lin Yi sat in the passenger seat without saying a word, seemingly thinking about other matters.
"I’m wondering if it’s necessary to go back and have a look."
"Hmm?" Ning Che paused, looking over at Lin Yi:
"What do you mean? Thinking of supporting them? Yuluo and Tao Cheng might not match your strength, but they’re not bad either. No need for support."
