Xiao Yun said to Lin Xi, “Xi Xi, Big Brother Xiao Yun isn’t going to play today. Xi Xi, why don’t you go home with your mother tonight?”

Lin Xi shook her head like a rattle-drum. “I want to go with Big Brother Xiao Yun too. I promise I won’t disturb Big Brother Xiao Yun.”

Xiao Yun was now put in a difficult position too. He understood Li Ping’s concerns.

Li Ping could leave Lin Xi to him at home because she could see the child wherever she looked.

But to suddenly leave her own child in the care of a three-year-old in a place further from home was something hardly any parent would be willing to do.

Moreover, Xiao Yun was not playing around this time. He had something important to do.

Li Ping was afraid that he would not be able to take good care of Lin Xi.

Although Xiao Yun knew that he could take good care of Lin Xi, he knew that the credibility of these words coming from his mouth was too low.

Lin Xi knew that brother Xiao Yun could not make the decision, so she shifted her gaze to Li Ping and blinked pitifully at her.

Seeing this, Li Ping eventually compromised and said, “Alright, alright. You can go with Big Brother Xiao Yun. Once I’m done with my work, I’ll come to accompany you guys.”

When Lin Xi heard this, she instantly beamed with joy. She held Xiao Yun in one hand and Li Ping in the other and ran forward.

She even said, “Yay, Mom is too awesome.”

“Slow down, slow down,” said Li Ping with a smile.

The three of them chatted and laughed all the way home.

That afternoon, Lin Feiyang and Xiao He didn’t come back for lunch. Instead, they had lunch in the factory.

So today, the mother and two children had lunch together.

After lunch, Li Ping didn’t let Xiao Yun go home. Instead, she arranged for Xiao Yun and Lin Xi to take an afternoon nap in Lin Xi’s small bed.

After that, they were sent to the kindergarten.

The moment they entered the classroom, Chubs excitedly said to Xiao Yun, “Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao, I talked to my mother and she agreed.”

Xiao Yun was obviously a little surprised, although he felt that having more people would make work lighter.

After all, how could a parent of such a young child be at ease not coming home from school but staying outside instead?

Xiao Yun guessed that Chubs must have used all his skills to persuade his mother.

But it did not matter. When it was over, he would send Chubs home himself.

He wouldn’t be at ease anyway if Chubs went home alone. Moreover, Chubs didn’t live too far away from him.

The situation in the afternoon was not much different from the morning. There were still many children crying, especially girls.

At this time, Xiao Yun thought to himself, “As expected, these children are not as cute as Lin Xi. They only know how to cry all day. Xi Xi is better.”

The afternoon passed quickly. After school, Xiao Yun and Chubs went straight to Lin Xi’s classroom to pick her up.

Lin Xi was already quietly waiting for Xiao Yun at the classroom door.

Chubs saw Lin Xi and greeted her in a playful manner. “Hello, there. I’m Xiao Yun’s friend. Everyone calls me Chubs.”

Xiao Yun rolled his eyes at him speechlessly. He needed to pay attention to Chubs’ behavior at all times.

After Xiao Yun hammered at his tummy, Chubs clutched his stomach and cried out, as if he was seriously injured.

Xiao Yun took the bag from Lin Xi’s hands and said to Chubs, “Let’s go. Don’t fool around here.”

Chubs immediately returned to his original state.

There was actually nothing in the school bag of kindergarten children, so Xiao Yun did not find it difficult to carry two school bags on him.

Lin Xi smiled and greeted Chubs. “Hello, Big Brother Chubs, my name is Lin Xi. You can call me Xi Xi like Big Brother Xiao Yun.”

“Okay. Let’s go then,” said Chubs as he walked out of the school.

Sure enough, the peddlers outside the kindergarten had already set up their stalls.

The parents who came to pick up the children would also satisfy their children’s wishes and buy some knick-knacks for them.

“Let us wait for a while until there are fewer people before acting,” said Xiao Yun.

So the three of them found a place to wait at the gate of the kindergarten.

“Brother Xiao, help me look after my schoolbag,” said Chubs right before throwing down his schoolbag and running away.

“Hey, where are you going?” Xiao Yun called after Chubs from behind but couldn’t stop him.

Then, he shouted. “Be careful and come back quickly.”

“Okay, got it.” Chubs shouted back.

After a while, Chubs ran toward them with a white plastic bag.

“Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao, what do you think this is?” asked Chubs proudly as he handed the white plastic bag to Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun suspiciously asked, “What is it?”

Then he opened the bag and saw three deep-fried golden pig intestines inside. “Did you just run off to buy this?”

At this time, Lin Xi also took a closer look. She took a deep breath and said, “Wow, Big Brother Xiao Yun, it smells so good.”

“Yes! Brother Xiao, hurry up and eat. It won’t taste good once it gets cold,” said Chubs as he wiped his forehead.

Xiao Yun looked at Chubs with an indescribable expression in his eyes.

“Alright, let’s hurry up and eat.” Then, he opened the plastic bag and gave Lin Xi and Chubs one each.

Lin Xi took a big bite and said, “It smells so good.”

Xiao Yun watched as Lin Xi ate so contentedly. He touched the top of her head and said, “Big Brother Chubs bought this for you. You should thank Big Brother Chubs.”

“Thank you, Big Brother Chubs,” said Lin Xi sweetly.

Chubs smiled foolishly and then took a big bite of his share of the intestines.

The three of them sat at the side and watched the people passing by in front of them

These vendors’ businesses only flourish when the children were out of school.

In just a few minutes, the crowd grew smaller and the vendors had become less busy.

When Xiao Yun was putting the last bite of his intestines into his mouth, he saw a dirty figure that was nearly 1.7 meters tall swaying on the side of the walkway not far away.

His entire body was disheveled as he looked at a stall, constantly drooling. He even used his dirty hands to wipe off the drool, only making his hands and face even dirtier.

When Xiao Yun saw this, he could not help but recall the events of his past life.

This disheveled man was called Dumbo. He was also a pitiful person because he was given this name by parents who thought naming their child a cheap name would make him easier to raise.

And it seemed that some people really do grow into their names. Unfortunately for Dumbo, when he was about three years old, a high fever damaged his brain. His mental aptitude had been severely damaged, thus making him a person who lived up to his name, so to speak.

His mother decided to divorce his father around the same time and refused to take custody of Dumbo.

Although he still had his father, Dumbo constantly reminded his father of his wife, making his father angry every time he looked at his son.

Sometimes, his father would get so angry at Dumbo that he would kick and beat the poor child up.
