rustling --

Officer Zheng took the thick filled-in application form in his hand and read through it page by page.

In the Household Registration Office, the passing sheriffs and other residents conducting business, pressured by the silence of Officer Zheng's desk, all lowered their voices and movements, fearing to disturb them.

Officer Zheng, who was at the center of the silence, remained unmoved by the expectant and nervous gazes of the crowd, and continued to carefully check the application information page by page at his own pace.

Bai Yu held Fu Fu's hand and watched Officer Zheng's movements closely. After turning to the last page and completing the inspection, Officer Zheng picked up the steel stamp and knocked it on the form with a clang.

The onlookers gasped and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

"I passed! I finally passed!" Anton excitedly clenched his fist and waved it in front of his chest, wanting to find someone to share his joy.

But he found that among the people watching together, Grace was celebrating with his company president, Keleida, by high-fiving, Fu Fu was happily hugging Bai Yu's arm and jumping around, and the sheriff Miss Susan, who had a good relationship with the little benefactor, was hooking her arms around Bai Yu's neck and rubbing his head hard.

Just when Anton was feeling a little lost, he felt a fist reaching out and bumping into his fist.

Anton turned around in surprise and saw Officer Zheng slowly withdraw his hand, unscrew the lid of the thermos, blow on it, and calmly take a sip of tea. He was so calm and composed as if nothing had happened.

But in Anton's opinion, the fine lines at the corners of Officer Zheng's drooping eyes revealed an indescribable kindness.

"I didn't expect the guardian application form to be so complicated and require so much information to be filled out. If I had known, I should have asked Ben to come along." Grace wiped the sweat from her forehead due to nervousness and sighed.

Grace and the others had oversimplified the matter, believing it was just a matter of filling out a form. They hadn't anticipated the details, which even made Keleida doubt herself as the president of Baizhi Heavy Industries.

Fortunately, Ben was thoughtful enough to give them a large package of company information before leaving, so that this trip would not be in vain.

"If it was just a simple 'Formal Resident Sponsorship Application', it wouldn't be that troublesome, but since you also involve 'Guardianship Rights of Minors', there's naturally more information to fill out," Susan explained.

"Congratulations. Once the application materials are reviewed and approved, they will be submitted. The review process will take seven working days." Officer Zheng scanned the delighted faces of the people one by one, then looked Bai Yu in the eye and said seriously, "I've reviewed the materials and there's no problem. If the review goes well, then within seven days, you two will receive your official residency certificates for New Ailidu.

It may be a little late, but welcome to New Eridu, children."

"Thank you." Bai Yu's voice was hoarse, and he didn't know how to express his mixed feelings. In the end, he could only say a simple thank you.

Three months had passed since he traveled through time. He was finally about to obtain the resident certificate that would signify his true acceptance into this city.

When the huge stone in his heart finally fell, Bai Yu felt a little light and unreal.

He turned his gaze to Susan beside him. On the second day after his time travel, it was with the help of this earnest and kind sheriff that he realized the reality of this world and truly accepted it.

And now, still under Susan's watchful eyes, Bai Yu was accepted by this city, truly took root in this land and began to grow.

Susan felt Bai Yu's silent gaze and just smiled and touched his head.

His eyes, bloodshot from staying up late and crying, were now filled with a gentle light, reflecting Bai Yu's small figure.

Bai Yu, who was staring at her, felt a pang of pain in his nose. He lowered his head, closed his eyes, and swallowed back his tears.

Susan touched her a few times, then withdrew her hand and touched Fufu's head. Fufu gave Susan a warm hug, which made Susan feel that little girls were more caring and lovely!

Although this well-behaved little sister is also a black-hearted sesame dumpling.

"We should have gone out to celebrate the approval of the application." Keleida looked at Baiyu, Fufu, and Susan and said apologetically, "But a lot of things happened today. Lao Hei and the others are probably back at the construction site.

And Baizhi Heavy Industry still has some things that we need to go back and deal with.

I think you guys, Bai Yu, need a good rest too. Why don't we wait until next time, when we officially get our IDs, and then we can celebrate together."

"Of course no problem. I'm really sorry to bother you today." Bai Yu turned around and sincerely thanked Keleda and the others.

"Don't say that. From now on, we're truly a family," Grace said with a smile. "Then it's settled. We'll celebrate together in seven days. Miss Susan has to come along!"

"Are you inviting me too?" Susan was a little surprised.

"Of course, Miss Susan is an important person to Brother Bai Yu, which means she is also a family member of Baizhi Heavy Industry. I have a feeling that we will communicate frequently in the future. Naturally, we should get to know each other better." Grace said sincerely to Susan.

"Communicate frequently... Is it necessary to be so subtle about asking 'parents'?" Keleda stood beside Bai Yu and Fu Fu and whispered to them, "That's what Grace told my homeroom teacher when she sent me to school."

"...Looking for, parents?" Bai Yu said with empty eyes, "What a fresh word. I've never been called parents before."

The two "parents" over there acted like adults and had a polite and friendly conversation.

They were ready to take their "own children" home.

"Well...Brother Bai Yu, little sister Fu Fu. Remember to come to Baizhi Heavy Industry to play with our president! Ouch!!" Anton shouted at Bai Yu before leaving. But before he could finish his words, Keleida, who was standing beside him, kicked him in the calf.

"Anton!! Think carefully before you speak!" Keleda growled, but her ears turned red.

"We will! Goodbye, Koleda!" Fu Fu, who has gradually revealed her social gangster nature, immediately responded loudly.

When Keleda heard Fufu's voice, she didn't turn around. She turned her back to them and raised her hand in a cool wave.

"Keleda's moves are so cool!" Fufu sighed, holding her face. "Next time I say goodbye to someone, I want to do the same thing."

"...Don't learn everything." Bai Yu complained weakly.

"Let's go back too. Ah, I'm so sleepy." Susan yawned, finally letting go of the things in her heart, and sleepiness swept over her. "Oh, right. We haven't finished discussing this yet. You two can talk about it after I wake up."

"Yes, we haven't finished discussing this yet." Fu Fu nodded in agreement. "Sister Susan, you haven't told me yet. What's your answer?"

"...No, isn't this matter over?" Susan looked down at Fu Fu in horror.

"Didn't Sister Susan say we still need to talk about it?" Fu Fu blinked her clear golden eyes and answered innocently.

Bai Yu, who was silent on the side, quietly gave Fu Fu a thumbs up.

It’s really beautifully done.

"I knew you two were in cahoots." Susan put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "Talk! Why not?! Who's afraid of who?"

"Hehe~Okay!" Fu Fu said happily.

Susan: “…”

Bai Yu: "..."

Oops, I seem to have been tricked.

The two people thought in unison.
