Liu Yuhan returned to the downstairs of the residential complex where she lived and ran into Jiang Lu, who seemed to be waiting for her.

He was holding two large plastic bags in each hand, looking at her with a face full of joy and a little shyness.

"Why are you back so late? I brought you something to eat."

Liu Yuhan smiled at him and replied, "Something delayed me today. Why are you here?"

Jiang Lu hesitated and said, "I'm just passing by. Isn't tomorrow your birthday? I have to go to City C early tomorrow morning and may not have time. I bought you some food in advance to celebrate."

Liu Yuhan stopped five steps away from him, looking at his tall and burly figure, his face slightly red with embarrassment, and Liu Yuhan felt a little warm in his heart because someone was thinking about him.

Jiang Lu was one of her warmth in the orphanage.

They entered the orphanage at about the same time. According to the director, Grandma Jiang, she was placed at the door of the orphanage when she was only a few months old. There was a note inside the cloth that wrapped her body, which read "Liu Yuhan" and her birthday.

Jiang Lu was about two years old when he was found on the roadside near the orphanage. Children of around two years old have a vague memory. JC couldn't find anyone else, so he had no choice but to take the orphanage grandmother's surname, Jiang Lu.

Jiang Lu and she stayed in the orphanage for six years. Jiang Lu was tall and big since childhood. Seeing that she was young, he often took care of her and played with her. For Liu Yuhan, Jiang Lu could be said to be an older brother.

Later they were taken away.

Liu Yuhan was adopted by an elderly professor and his wife from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences who had no children, and called them grandpa and grandma.

Liu Yuhan has been exposed to this since he was a child. Apart from the time he goes to school, he spends most of his time in the fields, orchards, laboratories, the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and the mountains of the old professor and his wife's hometown.

She fell in love with nature because of habit, and became obsessed with it because of love. She fell in love with being in nature and the joy she felt when she saw plants grow.

Seeing Liu Yuhan's talent and love for farming, the old professor and his wife were very patient and explained everything she didn't understand.

So more than ten years later, she naturally applied to an agricultural university, where she had more practical knowledge than others.

After graduation, she officially started working at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences and achieved some success. After she graduated, the old professor and his wife retired and settled in their hometown village, leaving her alone to live in a residential complex in the city.

Jiang Lu's story is a bit complicated. The couple who took him away were unable to have children for some reason, so they decided to adopt a child. Seeing the healthy body of seven-year-old Jiang Lu, the couple was very satisfied. They also had the surname Jiang.

It took a year to get the adoption approved. The couple opened a Taekwondo gym. They have a very hot temper.

Besides attending boarding school, Jiang Lu spent his time doing odd jobs at the Taekwondo gym. Because of his height advantage and talent for martial arts, he gradually became a sparring partner and coach...

Until the year he graduated from high school. Finally, one day, without Jiang Lu there to stop them, one of the couple who often had violent encounters was unfortunately beaten to death in the fight, and the other was sentenced.

Jiang Lu became an orphan again. At the age of 1, he was already 9 meters tall, tall and strong. After graduating from high school, he inherited a Taekwondo gym.

In the same year, he got his driver's license. Through the visiting phone number of Grandma Jiang from the orphanage and the address he memorized on a piece of paper, he bought a lot of supplies needed by the children and drove a hundred kilometers to the orphanage.

At the orphanage, I met Liu Yuhan, who had come to visit the orphanage after many years. She often went to the orphanage with the elderly couple of professors.

The boy and girl recalled their childhood, remembering the days when they kept each other warm and played together, chatting with each other and leaving their phone numbers and addresses, and were surprised to find that they were not far apart.

Liu Yuhan, motivated by her own interests, took up Sanda and Taekwondo under Jiang Lu. She studied on and off for seven years, during both summer and winter vacations, and has become quite capable of defending herself.

Liu Yuhan is already 25 years old and is no longer at the age of innocence and romance.

She could see Jiang Lu's care and concern for her, but deep down, she always treated him like her own brother and never thought of anything else. Liu Yuhan told him clearly what she was thinking.

What could Jiang Lu do? He could only accept it with a wry smile.

He had never been in a relationship. Perhaps he had always considered her a younger sister, because her smile was so beautiful and bright. In those years, in the sad days, that smile always gave him strength and brought a ray of light to his life.

He thought how wonderful it would be if he could see her always happy and joyful.

Jiang Lu is a loyal and authentic man. He never embarrasses or makes things difficult for Liu Yuhan. Liu Yuhan has long regarded him as a family member!

After chatting and giving him a few more instructions, Liu Yuhan took the two bags from Jiang Lu's hands and watched him walk away. Suddenly, she felt dazed. She shouted, "Brother, thank you! Take care of yourself!" Jiang Lu turned around and grinned at her, waving his hand vigorously, telling her to hurry upstairs.

Can we meet again, brother?

After returning to her room, she washed up, put on her clothes, and at 11:30 pm, she opened two large bags, one containing her favorite bread and cakes, and the other a bag of fruit.

Liu Yuhan didn't feel sleepy at all and had palpitations all day long.

I walked to the balcony and saw a light drizzle outside. Looking at the dark night, there was occasionally a flash of light in the populated areas. When will every household have a light of their own?

That's all. I walked to the bookshelf in the room and put away the entire shelf of agricultural books and important notebooks. I also put away the large amount of pens and A4 paper, as well as all the prizes I'd won from calligraphy competitions over the years.

The wardrobe and all the clothes were swept into the space. A high-powered telescope was put away in the bedside table.

I have collected eight famous Chinese medicine books that must be read before going to bed: "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Shennong's Herbal Classic", "Songtou Gejue", "Huangdi Neijing", "Qianjin Fang", "Treatise on Febrile Diseases", "Golden Chamber", and "Treatise on Warm Diseases".

These medical books come with color illustrations, making learning more efficient.

The quilts and bedding were put away. The three umbrellas used at home were put away, as were the pots, pans, knives, scissors, and several thermoses in the kitchen.

She also collected the emergency lights, flashlights, and two packs of candles. These were things she had bought over the past three years, so if they were suddenly gone, it wouldn't be a big deal.

I walked closer to the old professor and his wife's room and put the photo of the three of them into the space.

She felt a little sad. They were so old, and it was unfilial of her to not be able to provide for them in their old age. She didn't know if they could withstand this blow. She wanted to go see them!

It was midnight. I lit the candles on the cake and said a few silent prayers in my heart: May the country be peaceful and the people be safe, may my relatives and friends live in good health, may there be no disasters or illness in the world, may the cold rain no longer be cold...

Before leaving, put the food on the table and the refrigerator full of food into the storage space and turn off the main switch.

I went to the first floor and put the mountain bike that was locked on the first floor for riding into the space.

Before visiting the old professor and his wife, I passed by their workplace and thought about how there were still many things I needed on my workbench.

The corridor was dark, so I used my phone for lighting, opened the office door, tried not to make a mess, walked to my workstation, put everything I considered important into the space, and grabbed a stack of A4 paper next to the printer.

I walked out of the office and into the storage room at the end. It was quite large. I opened the door and put away the farm tools in the corner: five hoes, five machetes, and five large pruning shears.

Used as rainproof and moisture-proof cloth for greenhouse vegetables, umbrellas, raincoats, tents, all bundled together and stored in the space.

Walking to the shelf on the other side, there were all kinds of high-yield seeds on the shelf. Many of them were developed by her, her colleagues and previous elders through repeated practice. She took out half of each.

Fortunately, these things can be created at any time.

Liu Yuhan had never taken a single penny from the public, so he felt a little uncomfortable and quietly closed the door and left.
