After the divorce, I trained my dog, and the scumbag father and son knelt down at my door.

"My darling, I'm so sorry. I wasn't paying attention when I was working hard to earn money to raise you, and you were kidnapped by human traffickers and suffered so much!"

He glanced at Yan Niannian, then started howling at the top of his lungs.

He wasn't ashamed at all when he lied.

Xiao Jun's eyes reddened.

Coming to his senses, he turned around and hugged He Baoli tightly.

"Dad, I don't blame you at all. I know you've worked very hard!"

Xiao Jun was very happy.

Dad is finally starting to care about me.

that's nice!

He had finally waited for this day; from now on, he would be a child with a father who loved him.

Watching the scene of father and son recognizing each other, Yan Niannian's eyes also began to sting and feel sore.

At the same time, I'm genuinely happy for Xiaojun.

This is a great start.

In the future, she will definitely help more children find their homes and their biological parents.

"Mr. He, please stay with Xiaojun for a while. I'll go prepare some food for you." Yan Niannian said softly with a faint smile on her lips.

"Okay, thank you for your help, Director Yan."

He Baoli turned to look at Yan Niannian.

His gaze lingered on her, and he couldn't bear to look away even after she had walked away.

Gee!

That slender waist...

If I could just give it a good rub, I'd die happy.

"Dad! Dad!" Xiao Jun looked at He Baoli in confusion, gently tugged at his sleeve, and called out to him a few times. "You're amazing, how did you know I was in the orphanage?"

Yan Niannian was malicious and had no intention of sending him home.

It's amazing that Dad managed to find his way here.

who knew...

He Baoli did not answer him. Seeing that no one was around, he stopped pretending and revealed his true colors.

"Listen, you little brat!"

He grabbed Xiaojun by the collar and dragged him behind a tree.

"If you want to go home, you have to do what I told you to do."

With his head down, He Baoli glared fiercely at Xiao Jun.

Xiao Jun was dumbfounded.

He couldn't help but shiver.

The狰狞恐怖 (zhengning kongbu - hideous and terrifying) face merged with the one in his memory. Xiao Jun cried out in a mournful voice, looking utterly pitiful, "Dad..."

What the young boy couldn't understand was why his father, who had just smiled at him and shown him tenderness and care, had suddenly reverted to his old self.

He Baoli didn't give Xiao Jun a chance to just stand there dumbfounded.

He leaned close to his ear and quickly gave him a brief explanation.

Finally, Ho Po-lee couldn't resist asking, "Did you understand?"

Xiao Jun was stunned.

Dad... he actually wants me to trick Yan Niannian into going to their hometown to be his mother and his wife?

This is too...too crazy!

Seeing Xiao Jun's silly and useless appearance, He Baoli was furious.

He gave him a push.

"Useless thing, what are you daydreaming about! Don't you want a mother too?"

"Do you really want the other kids in the village to keep calling you a little bastard?"

"Bastard?"

Upon suddenly hearing those two words, Xiao Jun's face turned pale instantly.

His body stiffened.

It's very cold, very chilly.

The feeling was like being thrown into an icy river in the dead of winter; intense fear, accompanied by a suffocating sensation, overwhelmed him and swallowed him whole.

He has had no mother since he can remember.

This is also one of the main reasons why other children bully him.

They would follow him around calling him "bastard" over and over again, and would constantly throw stones at him and spit on him.

Those days...

It's really terrible.

He didn't want to live that kind of life anymore.

So, Xiao Jun was tempted.

If Yan Niannian could keep him in the orphanage just to make money, why couldn't he trick her into going back to his hometown and becoming his mother?

However, when Xiao Jun thought of the powerful people around Yan Niannian, such as Zhuo Yuchen and Fei Siyu, he was filled with awe.

He was intimidated again.

"Dad, Niannian's friends are very powerful. If they find our hometown, they definitely won't let us off the hook!"

"Look for? Where are we supposed to look?"

He Baoli looked disdainful.

Furthermore, they are fearless and emboldened.

"When the time comes, we'll take that woman and hide in your grandfather's village. There are mountains everywhere there, and even a tricycle can't get in."

"The villagers are very united, what's there to be afraid of!"

Xiao Jun did not refute this point.

Although he was young and didn't understand the intricacies of the situation, he had seen quite a bit of it.

Pretty young ladies or pretty aunties are often "led" into my grandfather's village.

Actually, "leader" isn't the right word. What Xiaojun saw was that they were tied up with ropes, like piglets being caught for the New Year, all white and without any dignity.

These people have made a scene, cried, and tried to escape.

But no one has ever succeeded.

In the end, they all obediently accepted their fate.

Getting Yan Niannian there to be my mother will definitely work.

"Come here, I'll tell you what to do!" He pulled Xiaojun over and whispered a series of instructions in his ear.

Then, he left.

Standing still, Xiao Jun turned his head to look in the direction of the classroom.

He cracked his knuckles and subconsciously bit his lip.

Yunyun came to mind.

She was his only friend in the world.

Now he has to go home, and he's afraid he'll never see her again.

Hey!

I just treated her like that!

Xiao Jun felt extremely guilty.

After thinking it over, Xiaojun decided to go find Yunyun, apologize to her, and say goodbye properly.

……

Yunyun was leaning on the windowsill, idly poking at the small succulent plant in front of her.

She pouted.

She was initially very happy that the kindergarten had started summer vacation.

But now...

Xiao Jun made me unhappy again.

snort!

He's gone too far. I'm not going to talk to him anymore. I'm going to cut ties with him.

Just then, a soft voice called out from behind, "Yunyun..."

Upon hearing the sound, Yunyun turned her head to look.

It's Xiaojun.

After secretly feeling a little happy, Yunyun frowned and muttered, "What?"

Scratching his head, Xiao Jun moved over.

He sat down next to Yunyun and said, "I'm sorry!"

"It's okay! I forgive you, after all, you're my best friend!"

Yunyun immediately beamed with joy.

Just moments ago, she was thinking of breaking off her friendship with Xiaojun, but now the two have made up again.

Although Xiao Jun was too young to truly understand the bitterness of parting, the feeling of unhappiness still brought tears to his eyes.

"Yunyun, I will miss you." Xiaojun lowered his head, looking somewhat dejected.

"What do you mean?"

Tilting her head, Yunyun looked confused.

She couldn't understand.

"I'm going home." Biting his lip, Xiaojun turned to look at Yunyun.

Yunyun was stunned for a moment, and then she was genuinely happy for him, "That's great, Xiaojun, you can finally go home."

"From now on, you must be incredibly happy!"

As she spoke, Yunyun opened her arms and gave Xiaojun a big hug.

"Can I still visit you in the future?" Yunyun asked sincerely as she released Xiaojun.

She really cared about him as a friend.

I don't want to lose him.

Xiao Jun hesitated for a moment.

My father had instructed me not to tell anyone the location of my grandfather's house.

But Yunyun is my best friend!

Tell her it should be fine.
