Wandering among the heavens, learning has no end.

In the afternoon, Li Haichao took his three children home.

He Ziqiu moved back into that small room, 202.

In the evening, Ling Heping and Ling Xiao arrived at 202.

Ling Heping saw He Ziqiu, paused for a moment, and went to the kitchen: "What's Ziqiu doing here?"

"I brought him back."

Li Haichao said this while cooking.

What are your plans?

Ling Heping asked.

"From now on, he will be my son, and I will take care of him."

Li Haichao replied.

After hearing this, Ling Heping gave a thumbs up.

This is not a decision that an ordinary person could make.

After all, if you raise a child who has nothing to do with you, that child can completely ignore Li Haichao once he grows up. In that case, all your hard work might be for nothing.

Li Haichao knew this, but he didn't care. He decided to support He Ziqiu, not with the expectation that He Ziqiu would take care of him in his old age.

All he needs to do is have a clear conscience.

Whether others think he's stupid or foolish, he's happy with it.

……

at night.

When Li Haichao got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, he saw that the toilet light was still on.

Upon closer inspection, I saw He Ziqiu washing clothes in the toilet.

Li Haichao felt very uncomfortable seeing this.

He also knew that He Ziqiu no longer had He Mei to rely on, and felt like he was living under someone else's roof.

"Ziqiu, it's so late, stop working and go to sleep. Dad will wash the clothes tomorrow."

Li Haichao began to speak.

Hearing the sound, He Ziqiu turned to look at Li Haichao at the door and said with a smile, "Dad, it's okay, I can do the laundry, I'll do it."

"Listen to Dad, don't wash anymore, go to sleep."

Li Haichao spoke again.

He Ziqiu had no choice but to put down his work and obediently let Li Haichao take him to his room.

……

In the following days, He Ziqiu was very careful to behave well every day, and he would rush to do any chores around the house.

I don't even dare to eat meat when I'm eating.

He wouldn't eat, so Ji Yuan and Li Haichao put food on his plate.

Then one evening, the situation began to improve.

……

night.

It was getting late, and the noodle shop was about to close, so Li Haichao had already started cleaning it up.

He Ziqiu was also there. Now he not only helps with chores at home, but also often works at the noodle shop.

Inside the noodle shop, there was one last table of customers: Grandma Qian and another neighbor lady.

The two were eating noodles when they noticed He Ziqiu wiping the table.

The neighbor lady, wanting to tease He Ziqiu, said with a smile, "Ziqiu, behave well, or your dad might send you away."

She probably just wanted to tease the child.

Li Haichao became somewhat angry upon hearing this.

He was a kind person, so he didn't lose his temper directly. Instead, he politely told her not to joke around with the child like that.

The older woman just laughed and said, "They're just kids, what do they know? They're just playing around."

In response, Li Haichao simply said that the child would take it to heart, a rare instance of him contradicting others.

As Li Haichao spoke, he came to He Ziqiu, who was already bursting into tears.

Li Haichao began to comfort He Ziqiu.

This old lady, as if she had no brains, was still muttering, "Oh dear, I was just joking with you, but you actually cried?"

This angered Li Haichao so much that he interrupted the woman and told her to eat her noodles quickly.

If Li Haichao had even a slightly worse temper, he probably would have already turned on him by now.

Even though Li Haichao's words were so obvious, the older woman was still being sarcastic, saying something like, "That's really funny."

Compared to this older woman, Granny Qian was more intelligent. She noticed that Li Haichao was angry and told her to stop talking.

Li Haichao pulled He Ziqiu behind the counter, squatted down and looked at He Ziqiu, saying, "Dad won't send you away. You won't go anywhere. You'll stay by Dad's side."

From now on, you'll be Dad's own son, just like Jianjian. How could Dad bear to send you away? Listen to Dad, Dad definitely won't send you away."

After what happened that night.

Perhaps it was because he had cried, or perhaps it was because of Li Haichao's comfort, but He Ziqiu gradually became less reserved.

It gradually returned to the way it was when we first moved in.

Although he was no longer reserved, he still remembered Li Haichao's kindness and was always eager to do any chores around the house.

……

Time flew by and it was September 2000.

Ji Yuan and Li Jianjian officially became primary school students.

Less than a month after starting elementary school, Ji Yuan and Li Jianjian encountered an incident.

On their way back, the two encountered two human traffickers.

He thought it wouldn't happen.

After all, this happened in the original drama because Li Jianjian wanted to eat candy, but Ling Xiao wouldn't buy it for her. So she became willful, refused to walk, and squatted down by the roadside, which is why she was left alone and was pulled into an empty alley.

This time, even though the two of them were together, they still encountered human traffickers.

The two were walking along the road when they came to a secluded spot.

Two human traffickers, a man and a woman, appeared and tried to take the two away.

Just kidding. Although Ji Yuan is only six years old, he has an attribute panel, so his strength is actually greater than that of most adults. The two human traffickers couldn't move him at all.

Ji Yuan showed absolutely no politeness when dealing with human traffickers.

Ji Yuan immediately punched the man, killing him instantly.

The pain was so intense that he collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.

"Damn it! That hurts like hell!"

The human trafficker was wincing in pain.

The other woman was punched directly in the eye by Ji Yuan, and then kicked down.

At the same time, Ji Yuan took out his phone and called Ling Heping.

Catching two human traffickers is a significant achievement; it's better to let Ling Heping benefit from it than to let others benefit from it.

After making the call, Ji Yuan stayed with the two of them.

At this moment, passersby came over and saw the man clutching his groin and rolling on the ground in pain, while the woman tried to get up. Every time she tried to get up, Ji Yuan would kick her.

Goodness, this left passersby completely stunned.

Whose child is this, so cruel?

"What's going on?"

A passerby asked.

Ji Yuan shouted, "Uncle and Auntie, these two are human traffickers. They want to kidnap me and my sister. I called my uncle. He's a policeman and he'll be here soon."

"What the hell!? Human traffickers!?"

Hearing this, one of the men who was nearby glared at the man and went straight over to give the trafficker who was covering his groin a kick.

"what!"

The beast cried out in pain again.

"Human traffickers deserve to die. Does anyone have any rope? Let's tie them up first."

"Yes, yes, we can't let them get away."

When passersby heard that the two were human traffickers, they immediately gathered around and wanted to help.

Many people then proceeded to punch and kick the two of them.

Not long after, Ling Heping arrived. He had rushed over in a hurry after receiving the call.

Seeing that Ji Yuan and Li Jianjian were alright, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, surrounded by onlookers, Ling Heping took the two human traffickers away.
