Chapter 16 The New Neighbor Upstairs

"Old Ling, it's so hot, let's move the things first."

From the back row of the truck, Ling Heping's wife, Chen Ting, called out.

Seven-year-old Ling Xiao sat next to Chen Ting.

At this moment, Ling Xiao was looking at Ji Yuan and Li Jianjian by the roadside.

Ji Yuan and Li Jianjian were also looking at Ling Xiao.

"Oh, this is my wife Chen Ting and my son Ling Xiao."

Ling Heping responded to Chen Ting, and then introduced his family to Li Haichao.

"Wow, this young man is quite handsome."

Li Haichao nodded with a smile.

Then he pulled Ji Yuan and Li Jianjian in front of him and introduced them to Ling Heping: "This is my daughter, Li Jianjian, and my godson, Ji Yuan."

"Hello, uncle."

Ji Yuan greeted Ling Heping politely.

"Hello, uncle."

Seeing this, Li Jianjian immediately followed suit and shouted.

Ling Heping's smile widened: "These two children are so polite."

Li Haichao smiled happily and ruffled the hair of Ji Yuan and Li Jianjian.

He's happier when others praise his child than when others praise him.

"Well, Mr. Li, I'll have to go now, I still need to move some things."

As Ling Heping spoke, he picked up the folding chair from the ground and put it into the truck.

"Okay, you have so much stuff, I'll come help you move it later."

Li Haichao said enthusiastically.

"No, no, no, that's too much trouble, I'm so sorry."

Ling Heping felt a little embarrassed.

Li Haichao smiled and said, "Don't be so polite. We'll be neighbors from now on. You go ahead, I'll pack up and come over."

"Well... okay, thank you so much. This whole truckload of stuff would be a real struggle for me by myself."

"fine."

"Then I'll go there first."

As they talked, Ling Heping got into the car and sat down.

The truck started moving and headed towards the residential buildings inside.

Li Haichao looked down at the two little ones.

"What are you two little rascals doing playing by the door?"

Li Haichao asked with a smile.

Li Jianjian pointed to the ground: "Dad, we're drawing. We haven't finished yet. We're about to draw you and Brother Jiyuan."

Li Haichao followed the gaze.

Then I saw a painting on the ground, depicting two people, one big and one small.

The drawing was very rough, but Li Haichao still understood what Li Jianjian had drawn at a glance.

It is obvious that this is a drawing of Li Jianjian's mother and herself.

Looking at the painting, Li Haichao thought of his wife who had recently passed away, and his eyes reddened.

"The painting is really good."

Li Haichao smiled and praised him.

Li Jianjian chuckled.

"You drew such a good picture, you should be rewarded. I'll reward each of you with an ice pop."

As Li Haichao spoke, he took out a dollar and handed it to Ji Yuan.

"Xiao Ji, take your sister to buy popsicles."

Ji Yuan took the one yuan and nodded.

"Oh, off to buy popsicles!"

Li Jianjian immediately pulled Ji Yuan and ran towards the convenience store.

……

Ji Yuan and Li Jianjian soon arrived at the convenience store.

In 99, popsicles at the convenience store were basically two cents each.

Li Jianjian arrived at the convenience store and immediately chose two popsicles.

Ji Yuan paid, gave them change, and then the two children each ate an ice pop and went home.

Just as they were slowly approaching the residential building, Ji Yuan and Li Jianjian saw Chen Ting throw a box away by the trash can and then turn back.

Li Jianjian curiously ran towards the trash can.

Opening the trash can, Li Jianjian saw the box inside and handed the popsicle to Ji Yuan: "Brother Ji Yuan, can you hold this for me?"

"What are you doing? Picking up trash?"

Ji Yuan asked.

"I want to see."

Li Jianjian blinked and said.

"Let me pick it up for you."

Ji Yuan took a bite of the popsicle stick and then took the box out of the trash can.

There wasn't anything messy or random in the trash can; there was a broken fan underneath, so it wasn't really a matter of cleanliness or uncleanliness.

Li Jianjian immediately leaned closer and saw what was inside the box.

A few old toys, and a torn photograph.

"Brother Ji Yuan, why did that aunt throw these toys away?"

Li Jianjian asked, puzzled.

"Who knows..."

Ji Yuan shook her head.

"Then let's take it back!"

Li Jianjian immediately smiled and said.

“Dad Li will definitely not allow you to take back things that other people have thrown away.”

"Oh, Brother Ji Yuan~"

Li Jianjian grabbed Ji Yuan's hand and shook it.

At such a young age, she already knows how to act cute.

"If I don't agree, you won't pick it up?"

Seeing this, Ji Yuan smiled and asked.

Li Jianjian shook her head without hesitation.

Even if she doesn't agree, she'll still pick them up.

That's just how rebellious she is.

If she were obedient, she wouldn't be Li Jianjian.

"Then why did you ask me?"

Ji Yuan said irritably.

"Hehe, since you agreed, then we picked it up together, and Dad won't scold us."

Li Jianjian said proudly.

"Your little brain can be quite clever sometimes."

"Hmm~"

Li Jianjian gave a proud, soft hum.

"I didn't praise you. Never mind, don't drag me into this. I'll just take the blame for you."

If Li's father sees it after I take it home, tell him I found it.

Ji Yuan said with a smile.

"hey-hey."

Li Jianjian smiled happily.

The two returned quickly.

……

Jin Ding Lane is the name of the neighborhood where Ji Yuan and his friends live.

Li Jianjian's home is at Unit 202, Building 3, Jinding Lane.

Ling Xiao's house is upstairs from Li Jianjian's house, specifically unit 302 in building 3, door 2.

As for Ji Yuan's family, his parents left him two houses, one of which was opposite Li Jianjian's, unit 201, building 3, door 2.

The other apartment is unit 301, building 3, unit 2, opposite Lingxiao's house.

However, Ji Yuan's family had always lived in 201, and Ji Yuan still lives in 201 now, while 301 has always been empty and uninhabited.

202.

Ji Yuan and Li Jianjian went back to Li Jianjian's house. Usually, Ji Yuan only goes back to his house at night when he goes to sleep.

Normally, after getting up, I just stay across the hall.

The two went to the living room, and Li Jianjian began to examine the toys inside the box.

The toy didn't really matter; she was more interested in the torn photograph.

She took out all the photo fragments and then found a piece of tape and a pair of scissors in the living room.

It looks like they want to piece the photos together.

Ji Yuan looked at the photo and quickly pieced it back together.

Seeing this, Li Jianjian praised Ji Yuan without reservation.

Wow! Brother Ji Yuan, you're amazing!

"Brother Ji Yuan, you're amazing!"

"It was put together in no time, I didn't even see it clearly..."

Faced with Li Jianjian's flattery.

Ji Yuan quickly interrupted her: "Alright, alright, do you want to stick the photo back together?"

Li Jianjian nodded vigorously immediately.

"Give me the tape and scissors, I'll help you."

Ji Yuan needed to use tape and scissors.

Then the two of them worked together to painstakingly glue the photo back together.
