President Yan? "

"Bring some gifts for Ningning."

Gu Ning's eyes lit up, and he sat up straight.

Feng Yi froze for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Ning couldn't help asking: "Who are you calling?"

Yan Dongting said, "Uncle Feng."

"Oh, so it's him," Gu Ning propped his face, his eyes flickering, "Is he coming here?"

Yan Dongting hummed and asked, "Why, you don't like him coming?"

Gu Ning shook his head and said with a smile: "How come, in fact, someone can come to play with Ning Ning, Ning Ning is very happy."

Although her tone sounded relaxed and cheerful, Yan Dongting felt a little lonely from inside.

In fact, she insisted on not letting him leave because she was afraid that she would be alone, right?Just like me before, I will always eat alone, sleep alone, and live alone, desperately waiting for a man who doesn't even want to talk to him.

In fact, this child is really similar to him, just as lonely and equally unaccepted.The only difference is that she also has a brother who loves her very much, but he... is alone.

A cherished kiss fell on her hair, and he said: "I will come to accompany you often in the future, and you will no longer be alone."

Clutching his clothes tightly, Gu Ning raised his face and asked uncertainly, "Really?"

"Really." He said very solemnly.

In Gu Ning's few memories, there is no one else besides Gu Liuguang who he relies on the most.Since she was a child, Gu Liuguang loved and protected her, and she didn't want her to suffer a little grievance. She also thought that her brother was everything to her.But now, leaning against Yan Dongting, she suddenly felt an indescribable feeling.

A feeling that she had always longed for, but dared not hope for.

"Uncle Yan," she called out softly, "Can you promise Ningning one thing?"

Yan Dongting said, "Say it."

Reaching out to him, Gu Ning said, "Hug Ningning."

Yan Dongting was startled, although he didn't understand why she made this request suddenly, he still opened his arms and hugged her into his arms.

Holding his neck tightly, Gu Ning buried his face in his arms, and said in a muffled voice: "Actually, every time I am alone at home, I am very scared. I am afraid that one day I will never be able to wait for my brother again. I am even more afraid that I will die suddenly when my brother is not around..."

Pulling her heart hard, Yan Dongting stroked her back and said in a hoarse voice, "With me here, you don't need to be afraid of anything."

"If one day I can't stand it and leave first, can you take good care of my brother?" Gu Ning begged in a low voice, "Don't let him always be alone, he will feel lonely."

"There won't be that day," Yan Dongting closed his eyes, "I won't let you have trouble. You will grow up safely and become the most beautiful girl in the world."

"At that time, can I marry you and be your bride?" Gu Ning pretended to be relaxed and smiled.

Yan Dongting was stunned for a long time before he said, "Why do you want to marry me?"

Gu Ning whispered: "In this way, you can be with us forever and will not be separated again."

"I won't be separated from you." Yan Dongting said softly, "You don't have to marry me, you deserve better people when you grow up."

Gu Ning asked persistently, "Then will you marry other big sisters in the future, have many babies, and take care of them when they grow up?"

Yan Dongting didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No way."

"Never?"

"Never."

"Uncle Yan, don't leave me and brother behind." He hugged the person in front of him tightly, hot tears fell from Gu Ning's eyes, soaked into Yan Dongting's skin, and burned his heart.

"I will always be with you." Yan Dongting kissed the top of her hair, "Until you get tired of me."

The depression accumulated in my heart for many years finally found a vent, Gu Ning hid in Yan Dongting's arms and burst into tears.

She obviously did nothing wrong, why didn't her parents want her?Why is she sick like that?Why did my brother bear everything for her?She was so scared, really scared, she was afraid that she would not be able to grow up, and that one day she would see her brother's painful face...

"Don't cry," Yan Dongting raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face, worried that she would suffer from a heart attack, and comforted her, "Your eyes are swollen from crying, and Uncle Feng will make fun of you when he comes."

His palm was wide and warm, with obvious love, healed the deepest pain in the girl's heart.

The mood stabilized, Gu Ning choked up and said: "Then drive him out."

Yan Dongting echoed, "Well, that's a good idea."

Wiping the tears off his face, Gu Ning raised his head and said, "Uncle, you must never tell brother what I just said, and don't say that I have cried."

"why?"

"I don't want him to lose his job because he is worried about me." Gu Ning said, "That way he will be sad and blame himself."

With a sour nose, Yan Dongting said: "I promise you, but in exchange, you have to promise me not to tell your brother about Uncle Feng's coming here."

Gu Ning raised his little hand: "Okay, then it's settled, this is a secret that belongs to the two of us."

After exchanging palms with her, Yan Dongting smiled softly.

Gu Ning was stunned for a moment, then suddenly broke away from him.

"Ningning?"

Going to the cabinet, he found his painting album and brushes. Gu Ning turned back to Yan Dongting, pulled him up, and said hastily, "Uncle, come with me!"

Being led by her to the tree outside the house, Yan Dongting lowered his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Sit down quickly." Gu Ning waved his hand.

Yan Dongting sat down on the stone chair without knowing why.

"Sit here and don't move." Gu Ning warned, then went back to the room and moved out a small stool, and sat opposite him.

Opening the album in her hand, she raised her head and asked seriously, "Uncle, can I draw a picture for you?"

Yan Dongting was taken aback, then laughed dumbly.

It's all like this, is there any room for him to refuse?

"Draw it."

Gu Ning erected the album, covered his face, only showing a pair of crooked eyes. "Uncle, just smile, you look better when you're not fierce."

With no other choice, Yan Dongting could only curl the corners of his lips.

"Is that all right?"

Gu Ning shook his head.

The corner of his mouth went up again. "how about this?"

Gu Ning responded with satisfaction, gestured to Yan Dongting, and began to draw on the paper.

The breeze blew by, and the leaves swayed gently, making a pleasant sound.Under the shade of the tree, the young man sat casually on the stone bench. Although the smile on his face was a little stiff, he looked at the girl in front of him with gentle and doting eyes, as if he wanted to give her all the good things in this world.

Leaning on the car body, Feng Yi admired such a scene from a distance, and couldn't bear to destroy it at all.

That was the Yan Dongting who he had never seen before. He broke away from that high-ranking identity, removed all the disguises on his body, and became the most ordinary person.

He thought, he probably knew why Yan Dongting cared so much about the siblings.

Is it because I really want to have the warmth between them?

"The painting is finished!" Gu Ning cheered, raised the album in his hand, and smiled brightly.

Yan Dongting under the tree breathed a sigh of relief, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all.Gu Ning came to his side holding the album, and raised his hand as if offering a treasure.Seeing the pattern on the drawing paper, Yan Dongting froze for a moment, and suddenly laughed uglier than crying.

Amused by the expression on his face, Feng Yi finally straightened up, walked over there, and asked loudly, "What are you looking at, so happy?"

Hearing his voice, Gu Ning and Yan Dongting turned to look at him together.

Gu Ning's eyes lit up, and he shouted, "Uncle Feng, you're here."

"Hey." Feng Yi responded, while looking at the album in Yan Dongting's hand.Sensing his intention, Yan Dongting snapped the album shut and said, "You've been standing there for so long, haven't you read enough?"

Feng Yi said solemnly: "That's different."

"Did you bring everything?" Yan Dongting asked after hiding the album behind his back.

Feng Yi raised the bags in both hands and said, "It's all here."

"Is there a gift from Ningning?" Gu Ning asked in a low voice.

Feng Yi laughed and said, "Of course, are you looking forward to it?"

"I didn't expect it." Gu Ning snorted, and then couldn't help asking: "What kind of gift?"

Feng Yi bent down, squeezed Gu Ning's face, and coaxed: "You call me Brother Feng, and I will tell you what the gift is."

Yan Dongting: "..."

But Gu Ning said: "I don't want it, I will call you Uncle Feng."

Feng Yi held back his disappointment and asked, "Why?"

"Because I only have one brother." Gu Ning laughed.

Yan Dongting was in a good mood immediately, and said, "Okay, let's take out the gift."

Feng Yi sighed pretending to regret: "Well, it seems that I am destined to be an old man." He took out the bag in his hand, and he took out a plush teddy bear with a very beautiful color, and pointed at her hand it over.

"Here, this is a gift from me."

Gu Ning blushed immediately, and tugged at the hem of Yan Dongting's clothes, she asked in a low voice, "Can I take it?"

"It was originally given to you." Yan Dongting said.

"But, I'm afraid my brother will be unhappy when he comes back." Although he longed for that beautiful little bear, Gu Ning dared not reach out to touch it.

After taking the teddy bear and solemnly handing it over to her, Yan Dongting said, "I'm here."

There was water in Gu Ning's eyes, and she hugged the soft little bear in her arms, and she said softly: "Uncle Feng, thank you."

Feng Yi was so heartbroken by the sound of Xie Meng, if Yan Dongting hadn't been staring at her from the sidelines, he really wanted to hug her up and kiss her hard.

"If you like it, you can have one yourself," Yan Dongting said coldly, sensing his intentions, "Didn't you have a hot fight with a certain female reporter from the newspaper recently?"

"Ahem!" Feng Yi coughed twice, and said, "I swear, I didn't plan to have a real relationship with her."

"That's the best." Yan Dongting said, "I don't want to see Dongtian's fierce news on the entertainment page one day."

Looking at the curious Gu Ning, Feng Yi suppressed his smile and said, "Yan, take a step to speak."

Yan Dongting hummed, lowered his head and said to Gu Ning: "Play by yourself for a while, Uncle Feng and I have something to talk about."

Gu Ning emphasized again: "You can't sneak away."

"Got it." Yan Dongting said with a smile.

Watching Yan Dongting and Feng Yi go away, Gu Ning lowered his head, lightly tapped the bear's nose in his arms, and said in a low voice, "I'll name you Papa Yan, is that okay?"

in the car.

Passing the information in his hand to Yan Dongting, Feng Yi said: "This is the plan for the charity project of the Provincial Hospital. It was just approved at the meeting this morning. You can see if it is suitable."

After receiving the information, Yan Dongting carefully flipped through it.After reading it, he said with satisfaction: "Very well, just follow this plan."

Feng Yi said: "Then I will bring the planning case to the person in charge of the hospital in a while."

"Call Chen Mo to go with him." Yan Dongting said, "I remember he has some friendship with Dean Zhang."

"Okay." Feng Yi replied.After a pause, he continued, "Actually, besides Director He, Director Zeng also called this morning."

"Zeng Kai? What does he want to do?" Yan Dongting frowned.

"It's nothing serious, I just want to show you the revised script, I've already sent him away." Feng Yi hesitated to speak, "It's just..."

"Say."

"Someone told me that he met Gu Liuguang yesterday, along with Zhang Heping, Li Mosheng, and Chen Dayou."

Yan Dongting's face suddenly changed: "When?"

"It should be when you took Gu Ning to the hospital for examination."

"Send someone to keep an eye on them." Yan Dongting said coldly, "Once they dare to cross the boundary with Liu Guang, stop them immediately and notify me as soon as possible!"

"Yes." Feng Yi replied.

Clenching the documents in his hands tightly, Yan Dongting cast his gaze out of the car window.Under the shade of the tree, Gu Ning was sitting on a stone chair, happily playing with the plush toy bear brought by Feng Yi.

Following his gaze, Feng Yi paused in his heart and couldn't help sighing softly.

"Yan," he called.

"kindness?"

"Are you really planning to keep going like this?" Feng Yi asked while holding the steering wheel tightly. "She and Gu Liuguang don't know your identity yet, do they?"

Yan Dongting narrowed his eyes and didn't answer, but Feng Yi already knew the answer.

"You like that boy named Gu Liuguang so much, are you willing to approach him in such a humble way?"

Yan Dongting replied in a deep voice, "Yes."

"At first you asked me to investigate him and prepare the best contract for him. I thought it was your whim, but now I think I was wrong." A trace of sadness appeared in Feng Yi's eyes, "The things you did , has exceeded the limit of 'like'. For him, it is really worth it to make yourself so embarrassed every time, even risking your life? Yan, if you don't stop, one day you will put your whole Everyone paid for it."

"It's too late." Yan Dongting closed his eyes, the wound on his head was painful. "At the moment he was in danger, everything was a foregone conclusion."

"Then when are you going to tell him everything?" Feng Yi asked, "You can't keep hiding it like this. He and Gu Ning will notice it sooner or later. By that time, have you figured out how to end it?"

Looking at the swaying T-shirt under the eaves, Yan Dongting said indifferently: "I will naturally say when the time comes, but not now."

Feng Yi sighed: "I've already booked a flight ticket to City C tomorrow afternoon. After finalizing the charity project with the Provincial Hospital, I will fly there immediately to handle the things you asked me to do."

"it is good."

"Once the household registrations of the two of them are successfully registered in City A, everything will be completely hidden. You... have to prepare in advance."

"I know." Yan Dongting said.

Feng Yi wanted to say something more, but Yan Dongting opened the car door and said, "Okay, go get busy, don't worry about me."

The car door was closed heavily, and Yan Dongting walked further and further away with his back to Feng Yi.Although his head was wrapped in gauze and the shirt on his body didn't fit well, it didn't weaken his unruly and sharp-edged personality at all.

This is Yan Dongting, the top decision-maker of Dongtian Media, the object that countless people in the circle have tried their best to cling to.

Feng Yi gave a long sigh, started the car and drove away.

Yan, Yan, I hope that young man can feel your heart, and I also hope that everything can go smoothly, as you wish.
