“Mom, I want to take a leave of absence these few days. I’ll accompany you to teach the children how to play the piano, okay? ” Du Anran had always been alone in the empty office these days. She was tired of it and wanted to go out for a walk.

She did not want to be like those precious fishes, just like a canary.

“You said you wanted to go before you went to London last time. Do you still want to go now? ” Bai ruyun smiled.

“Yes, I also want to meet the children that you often praise. Didn’t you always say that they are much smarter than I was when I was young? ”

“Then come with me tomorrow. I’ll bring you to meet them. I’m quite content to be with these children every day. ”

That night, after Du Anran massaged her mother’s shoulders, she sent a message to Xin Zimo. She wrote, “Zimo, why aren’t you answering my calls? ” Are you busy Can you call me back when you see it?

When Xin Zimo saw the message, he was flipping through the photo album that old Mr. Xin gave him. There were many photos in the photo album. He saw his grandmother when he was young, and the woman called he Zhilan that his grandfather had always loved. Of course, there was also his younger brother, Xin Zijun, whom he had never met before.

Xin zimo glanced at the text message. As usual, he did not reply, so he simply turned off his phone.

Du Anran had been waiting for him to call her back. When it was almost twelve o’clock, Xin Zimo did not reply. He must have seen the text message. Why didn’t he reply to her?

Du Anran was in despair. Why was it that when he returned to the country, he seemed to have become a different person… …

In the end, he still did not treat her as the person closest to him. He was still used to hiding things from her.

The next day, du Anran simply did not even apply for leave and did not go to work at the Xin Corporation. She followed her mother to the art school. When she arrived, it was time for class. The children entered the school one after another. Some of them were sent by their parents, while others came by themselves.

As far as the eye could see, the age of these children was uneven, but they all looked to be under the age of ten.

“Anran, sit in the back of the classroom and listen in. I’ll teach the children the violin, ” Bai Ruyun said to Du Anran.

“Okay, if I learn quickly, I’ll quit my job at Xin Zimo and come over to teach the children. ”

“If you dare to quit your job at the Xin Group, Xin Zimo will skin you alive. Why would he like you to do such a public job? ” Bai ruyun smiled.

“He’s not that overbearing. ” Du Anran smiled.

In fact, what she wanted to say was that he didn’t care that much. He didn’t even reply to her text messages or answer her calls. Why would he care about her quitting her job.

If she were to disappear from the world at this moment, would he call?

“Alright, it’s time for class. ” Bai Ruyun brought the violin into the classroom, and Du Anran followed closely behind.

There were usually not many children in this art class, not more than twenty in a class. Bai Ruyun liked to have them sit together in class, and the children seemed to be quite happy with it.

However, children were still children, and they were still chasing and quarreling when the bell rang.

Not only did Bai Ruyun have to teach them to play the violin, but she also had to teach them theoretical knowledge. It was undoubtedly a huge challenge for such a young child to accept boring knowledge.

However, Bai Ruyun was approachable, and she had her own way of treating children. She was always able to combine the two very well. Du Anran had never listened to her mother’s lecture. Today was an eye-opener for her.

During the second piano lesson, Du Anran requested for her to attend, and Bai Ruyun agreed. However, Du Anran had never interacted with so many children before. The lesson was only halfway through, and some of the children could not sit still.

“teacher, I need to go to the toilet! ” Some children raised their hands.

“teacher, I need to go to the toilet too! ”

“Teacher, duo duo hit me… ”

“Teacher, I’m hungry… ”

The noise from the commotion had already drowned out Du Anran’s lecture. Before du Anran gave them permission to go out, one by one, the little ones had already run out.

“Hey, all of you, come back! ” Du Anran had no choice but to chase after them. This was not a school, it was clearly a foster care center.

After one class, du Anran was completely exhausted. She did not know why her mother was so obedient in class.

Du Anran thought of a way. She decided to use incentives. For children who could listen to the entire class, she would reward them with small gifts. For those who could answer a correct question, she would also reward them with small gifts.

Sure enough, the enthusiasm in class immediately increased.

Bai Ruyun looked at her daughter and suddenly smiled. She was in a trance. Back then, du Anran was still the same age as these children. In the blink of an eye, so many years had passed.

“Mom, these children are so difficult to teach… ” Du Anran finally breathed a sigh of relief during the break. She could not help but complain to her mother.

“When you get used to it, you will figure out a method that suits them. These children will naturally listen to you. However, you have to be strict when you need to be strict. You can’t always rely on rewards. ”

“Oh, I understand. ” Du Anran stuck out her tongue and remembered when she was naughty when she was young. When her mother scolded her, she immediately became obedient.

“There’s a team activity in the afternoon. You’ll lead them to do the activity, ” Bai Ruyun said.

“okay, it’s always more interesting to do the activity than in class. ”

Sure enough, when it was time for the team activity in the afternoon, this group of children ran out of the classroom like a swarm of bees. Du Anran couldn’t stop them.

Du Anran first led them to do exercises, then led them to play games, sing songs, and cut paper.

Bai Ruyun saw that Du anran still liked children very much, so she couldn’t help but take a lot of photos for them.

There was a little girl in the class who was very obedient. Du Anran liked her very much, so she hugged her and took a lot of photos.

“Teacher Du, are you coming tomorrow? ” A boy asked.

“If you’re good, then I’ll come. If you’re not, then I won’t come! ” Du Anran coaxed.

“teacher, you play the piano so well. It’s so beautiful. ”

“Teacher, your candy is so delicious. I want more. ”

Before they left, the group of children surrounded Du Anran and talked about everything. They were not as active as they were in class. Some children held du Anran’s hand, and some children drew a picture for her.

Du Anran was very touched. She could not help but promise them, “teacher will come back to see you whenever she is free. ”

“teacher, you have to come every day. ” “teacher, don’t forget to bring delicious food. ”

Du Anran smiled and patted their heads. “Okay, you just have to be good. Next time, not only will there be candy, but there will also be biscuits, jellies, chocolate… lots of delicious food. ”

The children could not help but cheer. They had surrounded Du Anran and did not let her go. It was not until their parents came to take them away that they reluctantly said goodbye to Du Anran.

“Mom, these children are so fun. ” Du Anran smiled knowingly when she followed her mother home.

“You will suffer if you have been here for a long time. ” Bai ruyun smiled. “They are like little white rabbits. Once they go crazy, no one can stop them. ”

“But I finally understand what you mean. ” Du Anran felt that today was much better than when she was at the Xin family.

“come again when you’re free. Even if you’re unhappy, come over. Children are always the most sincere. Just like when I was born and went bankrupt, there was a period of time that I couldn’t get out of. But every day when I see these children, all my worries are gone. ”

“Mom, I’ll definitely come again. ”

The unhappiness in Du Anran’s heart disappeared, but a day had passed. She didn’t call or text Xin Zimo, so he didn’t look for her.

She felt that it wasn’t a good idea to continue like this. She lied to her mother and said that she was going out to have dinner with her friends. Bai Ruyun didn’t probe further and let her go.

It was already dark. She did not know where Xin zimo would be, at the Xin Corporation building, at home, or in his villa Or maybe he was not at all. He was socializing again… …

She first went to the Xin Corporation. Sure enough, his car was still there. The lights on the thirty-sixth floor were also on. The lights were bright and the stars were shining brightly.

Du Anran bought some snacks and brought them up. It was so late, he should not have eaten dinner. He was always busy with work. Sometimes he forgot to eat breakfast, sometimes he forgot to eat dinner. His meals were irregular.

When she arrived at the door of the president’s office, she knocked on the door. She was not sure if he was there.

It had been so many days since she last saw him. She was at a loss.

Xin Zimo was indeed in the office. When he heard the knock on the door, he initially thought it was Sun Ping. However, he thought that Sun Ping would not knock on the door directly. The person who could be here so late must be du Anran.

He pretended not to hear and continued to read the documents in his hands.

Du Anran waited for a few minutes. She knew that he was clearly inside. She had no choice but to call him. Sure enough, not long after, she heard the ringtone of Xin Zimo’s cell phone in the office.

Xin Zimo knew that he could not hide anymore, so he opened the remote control door.

The moment du Anran saw him, it was just like when he gave her a subpoena and she came to look for him.

He lowered his head and flipped through the documents. When he knew that she had come in, he did not look up. The faint light shone on his body and contrasted with the dark night behind him. Everything was as quiet as water.

“Are you still busy? ” Du Anran smiled and walked forward to open the snacks that she had brought.

Xin zimo frowned slightly. “I’ve eaten. ”

Du Anran’s hand paused, feeling a little disappointed. After a moment, she calmed down. “Oh, do you want to eat some more snacks? There’s a cake that you like. ”

“You can go back. I still have work to do. ” Xin Zimo declined bluntly.

“Are you really very busy? ” Du Anran looked at him. Ever since he came back from London, he had been like this. He was neither cold nor warm, treating her as if she was a stranger.

“Yes, I have a lot of things to deal with. ” Xin Zimo did not raise his head and continued to review the documents in his hands.

There was indeed a large stack of documents on his desk, but only Xin Zimo himself knew that being busy was just an excuse.

“Then I won’t bother you… ” Du Anran lowered her head and placed the snacks on the coffee table at the side. She could not describe the feeling in her heart.

Before she left, she glanced at him again. The gentle light poured on his body, making him look perfect. The lines on his face were firm and handsome, and the outline was clear.

He was clearly close to her, but it was as far away as the horizon.

Du Anran was powerless as he closed the door. Du Anran, who was very natural in the office a moment ago, entered the elevator as soon as she stepped out of the door. She leaned against the elevator, her eyes red.

There were many things she wanted to tell him, but he did not even have the desire to listen.

It was exceptionally cold in city a in winter. The moment she stepped out of the Xin Corporation building, the cold wind blew straight into her neck. She forgot to wear a scarf when she came out, so du Anran had no choice but to wrap herself in the collar of her coat.

The cold wind was bone-piercing, and even the pedestrians on the streets were much fewer. It looked bleak everywhere.

Two days later, the Xie Corporation held a live press conference as scheduled. This press conference was very similar to the Xin Corporation. At the press conference, Xie Chenjin, as the CEO, announced his collaboration with the popular movie star of Guanghua Media, Miss Mi Li.
