Yun Xiaoruan quickly nodded, "Understood."
Qin Zheng did not say anything, packed the medicine box and got up, then turned and left.
Yun Xiaoruan anxiously said: "Fourth Uncle!"
Qin Zheng stopped and turned to look at her, "Is there something else?"
"Fourth Uncle... "I have something that I don't know if I should ask …"
"Then don't ask!"
Qin Zheng said indifferently, and then left without even turning his head back.
Yun Xiaoruan stared blankly for a moment, as she could not believe that Qin Zheng had just turned around and left.
Oh my god!
He left just like that?
"Do you know? Have you ever seen such a person? I already said that I don't know whether I should ask or not, but he actually said, "Then, don't ask anymore!"
"Damn it!"
Yun Xiaoruan could not help but complain into her phone.
Su Ling called Yun Xiaoruan while wearing her earphones, but her hands were still busy.
"Alright, alright, Xiao Rou, don't be angry anymore. I'll come to your house to visit you when I leave school tomorrow afternoon!"
Yun Xiaoruan felt a bit of comfort in her heart.
"Alright, Su Ling, you are the best!"
Su Ling laughed, "I'm going to busy myself, my mom is too busy."
"Alright, then busy yourself. I'm hanging up!"
Yun Xiaoruan hung up the phone, feeling much better.
Looking at the night sky outside, Yun Xiaoruan once again thought of Qin Yao and Yang Fen.
It was really difficult to live in the Qin family.
However, she still thanked Qin Yao and his wife. If they hadn't adopted her in her most difficult times, she might not have been able to grow up safely.
Yun Xiaoruan sat on the bed, holding a straw and stirring the fruit juice in her cup.
Some bad memories came to mind.
At that time, she was wrongly accused of stealing something, but she didn't do it.
However, the most popular child in the orphanage had come forward to testify that he was a thief.
A lie.
Just as Yun Xiaoruan was about to be chased out by the Principal, the Qin couple appeared.
Just like that, she had changed from a fate that nearly made her turn into a beggar, and with a shake of her body, she became the daughter of the clan with the largest Green Harbor City.
Although the Principal didn't trust him, the orphanages were places where he could live in the past. Thus, when Yun Xiaoruan was able to make money, she would save half of the money she had spent and half of it would go to the orphanages to buy some things for the children.
Later on, the dean had also brought out the monitoring system to prove his innocence.
But what good was that?
The shadow of his childhood had already been left behind.
Even now, he would still have that dream.
Yun Xiaoruan bit her lips, extended her hand and placed the cup on the bed, preparing to sleep.
It was summer, and the air smelled hot.
Yun Xiaoruan laid on her bed, only then did the wind start to blow, and raindrops started to fall.
Yun Xiaoruan used the blanket to cover her face, and then she heard the sound of thunder coming from outside.
She was a little scared.
A person's bedroom, and thunder again …
After settling the company's matters, Qin Zheng leaned back in his chair and pinched the center of his brows.
The clock on the wall stopped at ten.
Qin Zheng frowned, "Why did it end so early today?"
It had been hard for him to fall asleep before midnight, after what had happened five years ago.
Qin Zheng reached out and turned on the computer, wanting to see if there was anything else he could use to pass the time.
Someone knocked on the bedroom door.
Qin Zheng said: "Come in."
The door was pushed open gently, and a timid Yun Xiaoruan stood at the entrance.
Qin Zheng was startled, then shifted his gaze downwards.
Yun Xiaoruan was wearing a pure white nightgown with edges while holding onto her slippers at the door.
His small face was filled with cowardice.
Qin Zheng looked at her, "What are you doing here?"
Yun Xiaoruan bit her lips, "Fourth Uncle … "I'm a little afraid of the thunder outside …"
Qin Zheng looked at the sky outside in the blink of an eye.
I was so focused that I didn't notice the rain and thunder.
No wonder this little girl could come and find him.
"I still have some work to do. If you're afraid, wait here for a while. I'll coax you to sleep after I'm done."
Yun Xiaoruan quickly nodded her head, closed the door and walked in.
She obediently walked to the sofa opposite Qin Zheng and sat down, then hugged her pillow and leaned on the sofa.
Qin Zheng raised his head and looked at Yun Xiaoruan, who was nodding his head.
When the sound of thunder came from outside, she was jolted awake. Her round eyes looked especially adorable.
There was even a piece of gauze stuck to the corner of her left eye, which made her look a little pitiful.
Qin Zheng tried to focus his attention back onto the computer, but to no avail.
In the end, Qin Zheng still stood up, looked at Yun Xiaoruan, and said: "Go back and sleep."
Yun Xiaoruan suddenly woke up and blinked her eyes as she looked at Qin Zheng, "Fourth Uncle, are you done?"
Qin Zheng replied.
Yun Xiaoruan smiled sweetly and jogged forward a few steps to walk beside Qin Zheng.
The two of them returned to the bedroom.
Yun Xiaoruan lied on the bed and looked at Qin Zheng with blinking eyes.
Qin Zheng's face was extremely cold.
"Sleep."
The voices were cold, as if giving orders.
Yun Xiaoruan looked at Qin Zheng, and said: "When my father coax me to sleep, he always sits …"
Qin Zheng was helpless, he could only sit down and look at Yun Xiaoruan.
"Can I sleep now?"
Yun Xiaoruan laughed and said: "Fourth Uncle, I especially want to ask you … What did you do to that son of a bitch today? "
Qin Zheng was expressionless.
"That's not something you should care about."
"I'm just asking …"
Yun Xiaoruan said softly and immediately sat up.
"Fourth Uncle, are you from the underworld?"
Qin Zheng did not make a sound.
The light on the bedside lamp was yellow, warm and gentle, but it still could not melt Qin Zheng's resolute and cold temperament.
"Fourth Uncle, I saw you take out a gun in my house that day …"
Yun Xiaoruan whispered, "Fourth Uncle, if you are a gangster, can you protect me in the future?"
"Yun Xiaoruan!"
Qin Zheng's face suddenly became extremely serious.
Yun Xiaoruan anxiously looked at him sternly.
"Do you know that curiosity can kill you?!"
Just as he finished speaking, a flash of white lightning flashed in the room, followed by a loud 'kacha' sound.
Yun Xiaoruan screamed in fear and threw herself into Qin Zheng's embrace.
"I … I … I …" "I don't dare …"
The girl was very soft, very small.
She curled up in his embrace and said with a sobbing tone.
Qin Zheng suddenly wanted to laugh.
This girl was only a child that had yet to reach adulthood.
Qin Zheng slowly reached out and stroked her hair.
"So cowardly, do you still have to ask? "Ask yourself and be afraid …"
Yun Xiaoruan whimpered a few times before withdrawing, raising her head to look at Qin Zheng in grievance.
"Fourth Uncle... Aren't you curious? "
Qin Zheng nodded, "No!"
Yun Xiaoruan curled her lips, "That's right, you're different from normal people."
Qin Zheng did not speak, he only looked at her.
She leaned against herself, her small hands playing with the hem of her blouse.
