Not long after, the door of the police station was opened, and the chief and the old man walked into the police station together.

The director's usually serious face now showed a rare smile, and he said softly: "Congratulations, congratulations! We are finally reunited!"

The old man nodded slightly, and the wrinkles on his face relaxed a little. A barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he responded in a low voice: "Yes, I didn't expect this day to finally come."

"But, Old Hu, are you really willing to stay here like this? After all these years, it's time to move up a level and get a higher position. That's when you'll truly be worth your money."

The chief was silent for a moment, his eyes fixed on the row of silent police cars in the distance, as if recalling the past.

"How high is considered a high position?" he said calmly. "This is enough. I'm old now, and I'm no longer as arrogant as before."

"As I got promoted, I felt like I couldn't keep up with the young people in terms of thinking."

"But you have to find a partner and enjoy a peaceful life. You can't just live like this."

"You've worked in this position for most of your life, so you have to have some private time to spend with your family and enjoy life."

Before he finished speaking, Director Hu waved his hand and smiled, interrupting the old man's thoughts.

"Don't mention these things. I am not as lucky as you."

I can't help but sigh, "I'm so envious of your two granddaughters."

The old man smiled and said, "Everyone has their own destiny. It is indeed a blessing to have a granddaughter to accompany me."

“However, sometimes fate may not go the way we wish.

"You said you could stay here peacefully. I admire you a little."

"Yes," the director took over, "as you said, life is always full of complexity and changes. Only when your mind is clear can you truly walk on a path that you can walk safely."

The old man pushed open the door of the observation room.

The two granddaughters were sitting on the serious-looking chair, chatting and laughing, completely ignoring the atmosphere around them.

Ye Shihan's face was full of embarrassment, but her smile couldn't hide the joy flashing in her eyes. Her relaxed and carefree look made the atmosphere in the whole room much more relaxed.

When the police officers in the room saw the chief coming, they hurriedly stood up and stood in awe.

Although the director's majesty was silent, it was particularly obvious in such occasions.

He looked at the two "guilty" children in front of him - one was Yun, whom he had seen grow up, and the other was the granddaughter of the Yun family whom he had not seen for many years.

He was caught red-handed setting off fireworks near the Second Ring Road moat.

With a smile on his face, he leaned over and walked towards the desk.

The director looked down at the clearly written fine ticket and said softly, "The fine can be deducted from your salary."

Then, the chief raised his hand to signal the police officers in the room to leave, his expression still serious.

The room suddenly became quiet, the air seemed to be frozen, and only the ticking sound of the clock in the corner could be heard.

Although the police officers standing by felt a little puzzled, they still left as instructed.

Yun Yiruo had already run to the old man's side and instinctively snuggled up to him like a well-behaved child.

His neck was hunched, but there was a mischievous smile on his face, which was extremely vivid in this quiet environment.

Ye Shihan stood by and smiled awkwardly.

The director's gaze shifted from Yun Yiruo's smile to Ye Shihan, his tone softening a bit: "Shihan, you have to set a good example for your sister."

“While we should celebrate the New Year, we must also follow the rules.

"But you two are quite clever. You're quite brave to do something like this in a place like this."

"Forget it. Since you didn't do anything serious this time, I'll teach you a lesson. Don't do it again next time."

After the director finished speaking, he patted Ye Shihan's shoulder gently and said, "However, since you are all here."

"Let's just have a peaceful New Year today. The bureau has some New Year's goods, and you can take some back with you."

Ye Shihan and Yun Yiru looked at each other, and both felt a sense of relief.

He turned to the police officer beside him and said, "Okay, prepare some simple snacks and New Year's goods for them as a goodwill gesture for the New Year."

"Thank you!"

Yun Yiruo and Ye Shihan thanked him in unison.

After Director Hu finished handling the matter, the old man standing aside spoke.

"You two are so carefree. Go out and wait for a while. I want to talk to your Uncle Hu."

Not long after, the office door was gently closed again. Inside, the director and the old man had already started talking.

The old man withdrew his gaze from the window and said slowly: "Old Hu, you are really a persistent person."

"How many times have I wanted to persuade you not to bear this responsibility any longer?"

"I'm old now, I should enjoy my life in peace and contentment."

"Yes, peace of mind is the most important thing."

The old man was silent for a moment, then asked, "Are you planning to stay here forever?"

"Yes."

"After all, this is my roots."

After a while of silence.

"Your two granddaughters are really kind-hearted. I can see that they have their own thoughts, even though they are still young."

At this moment, a police officer suddenly walked in and interrupted the conversation between the two: "Chief, the New Year's goods are ready and can be delivered to the two young ladies."

As the police officers prepared New Year's goods, the two granddaughters went back into the house.

They held bags filled with snacks and New Year's goods, although there was still a hint of embarrassment and uneasiness on their faces.

"Thank you, Uncle Hu!" Yun Yiruo and Ye Shihan said in unison.

Director Hu patted Yun Yiruo on the head and said, "You have to be obedient next time, okay?"

Yun Yiruo smiled and replied sweetly, "I understand, Uncle Hu."

Ye Shihan also smiled and said, "Thank you, Director Hu, and I wish you a happy new year."

The director nodded and said, "Happy New Year, remember to follow the rules."

Yun Yiruo and Ye Shihan looked at each other and decided to go home with their things.

However, just as they were about to step out of the door, they suddenly caught a glimpse of a car that was so familiar that it couldn't be more familiar - that was the car their mother drove every day!

Their hearts skipped a beat, and they instantly became nervous. It was too late to pretend they hadn't seen it, so they had no choice but to lower their heads and look around as if nothing had happened.

Just as they were looking around pretending to be calm and moving slowly, they suddenly felt a powerful aura coming from behind.

Then, a voice that sounded slightly reproachful but also full of doubts rang out in my ears: "You two guys, you actually bought a sugar painting and ended up in the police station?

"How come I never knew the police station had a business selling sugar paintings?"
