C10 Care Around You

"Young Master, Young Master?" Qin Kai came home from school, left his schoolbag and came to find Shu Haoran, but Shu Haoran was not there.

"Kai, Young Master went over to the old man's side." Nanny Aunt Zhao was leaning out of the kitchen, holding a spoon in her hand.

"Oh, will the master come back for dinner tonight?" Qin Kai nodded and walked into the kitchen to help. Looking at the dishes on the chopping board and in the sink, he couldn't help but ask.

"Teacher said that there will be a social gathering, but the Old Master will come over and let your father eat with you tonight. It's said that there will be guests too, hehe ~" Aunt Zhao loved the liveliness. Usually, there would be two little guys, Shu Haoran and Qin Kai, eating at home.

"Grandpa is coming!" "I'll probably have to ask about my grades and performance again. In addition, with dad here, I'm going to be recited …" Qin Kai had a depressed look on his face. His grades were actually pretty good, placing him in the top ten in the class. But since the old man had high expectations, he always felt that he could be better. Oh yeah, young master went to the hospital in the morning, how was the result of the examination? "

"I heard that everything is normal." Aunt Zhao smiled and handed the potatoes to Qin Kai to flay, "To be honest, since young master came back from being kidnapped, he has become more sensible and not as reckless as before. If there's nothing wrong with his body as examined by a doctor, then young master got lucky from this disaster."

"Mmm mmm, I also think that young master came back as if he's a completely different person. I can't say for sure, but I like the young master now. Ah, no, I like all kinds of young masters!" Realizing that he said the wrong thing, Qin Kai stuck out his tongue and quietly peeled his potatoes. He was wondering what kind of customer it was.

"After you finish peeling the potatoes, go and do your homework. I can busy myself with your homework. "Also, help me take a look at young master's homework. It's not impossible for you to talk about him occasionally." She understood Qin Yuebin's stubbornness, but she did not agree with what he said. Staying stress on the relationship between the young master and the servant between the two children would only make the two children more uncomfortable, what's the good?

"Okay, Aunt Zhao is the best ~" Qin Kai laughed, but in his heart he stuck out his tongue as he thought about who would dare to scold the young master.

Time passed slowly, and in the evening, when Shu Haoran and the old man had brought their guests home, Qin Kai dropped his homework and trotted out to find that it was Ling Mu'an and her mother. The last one to enter was Qin Yuebin. Knowing that it was a celebration for Ling Mu'an tonight, his face turned stiff. He didn't talk much, and the mother and daughter pair did not look friendly either.

The dinner was very sumptuous. Aunt Zhao served the dishes one by one, filling the table to the brim. Ling Mu'an, who was invited to be a guest, was still in disbelief. Shu Haoran actually knew it was her birthday.

"Auntie, Ann, you guys don't have to be so polite. Take a seat." Shu Haoran pulled the old man's sleeve and winked at him.

"Mhmm, right, there's no need to be polite. That Ah Bin, don't scowl. This is a guest that I invited." The old man sat at the head of the long table and winked at Qin Yuebin.

"Yes, Old Master." Qin Yuebin was not even forty years old, but he looked a little old. He wore a pressed gray shirt and pants in a straight line. He didn't like to laugh, and liked to talk about rules and regulations. He had followed his mother, Qin Kai's grandmother, to the Shu Family and worked for it all the time. He was honest and did not understand changes and was very paranoid about family rules. This was also the main reason why Qin Kai's mother could not stand it and divorced him.

"No, no, it's fine." Mother Ling quickly accompanied her by smiling face as she gently pulled Ling Mu'an to sit down. Of course, it was impossible for her to say anything that wasn't courteous.

"…" Qin Kai helped to carry the dishes and put down the bowl and chopsticks. Looking at his unhappy father, he swallowed his saliva and didn't dare to say anything.

"Come on ~ The cake is coming ~" Aunt Zhao opened the box in the kitchen and brought the cake that the old man asked for onto the table.

"About that, I'm really sorry. It's actually just a small birthday. There's no need to spend so much money, and you even invited us here for a meal. Thank you. Thank you so much!" Mother Ling felt flattered and stood up again to thank her left and right. Ling Mu'an also followed behind her mother and stood up to thank everyone.

"Sit down, sit down. Don't be so polite. What small birthday is it? How is ten years old a small birthday? Hao told me that the other day, thanks to Ann's help, he wasn't going to lie down on the road and blow the wind, heheh heh heh. The old man waved his hand and pushed the candle in front of Shu Haoran so he could put it on the cake.

"No …." "I didn't do anything …" Ling Mu'an was already blushing. She stole a glance at Shu Haoran, who was inserting candles, and tried her best to suppress the joy in her heart, not daring to act too rashly.

"Aunt Zhao, don't be so busy. Come here, let's have a seat. Ah Bin and Xiao Kai are here too. Everyone, light the candles and turn off the lights!" The old man was very playful. He thought about how it had been a long time since Shu Haoran's mother passed away and how it had been since someone's birthday was celebrated at home.

"It's here, it's here."

Everyone sat down at the table. Qin Yuebin took a lighter and lit the candle. Qin Kai ran to the side and turned off the light. The living room immediately turned dark, leaving only the orange glow of the candles to shine on the faces of everyone at the table.

"Let's start with a birthday song." Shu Haoran took the lead and suggested.

"Yes, yes. Alright ~ Auntie Ling will start now!" Qin Kai replied immediately.

"Happy Birthday ~ I wish you a happy birthday ~"

Ling Mu'an covered her face as she giggled foolishly. She felt as if her entire face was burning red.

[When I was young, my family was poor and I never celebrated my birthday. At most, my mom would cook me a bowl of noodles. I was already very happy.] If you keep accumulating energy, you won't have the habit of celebrating your birthday. Therefore, if you didn't mention it today, I would have forgotten about it. Hur Hur ~]

Shu Haoran looked up at the cute blush on Ling Mu'an's small face. He still remembered her moved expression when he pretended to celebrate for her a few years later. Back then, he took a photo and showed off to his friends, saying that it wouldn't take much effort to get rid of Ling Mu'an.

He felt a dull pain in his chest, as if he wanted to stop Ling Mu'an from continuing to treat him well.

Gradually, he understood that the pain was related to his behavior. If it didn't hurt, then it was the same as before, such as his relationship with his grandfather and his initial good relationship with Ling Mu'an. There were many things that he could not remember, but through this kind of judgement, he began to understand that he was not that useless when he was young. At the very least, he was a gentle person, and he had indeed helped the Ling Family's mother and daughter, and he had also followed his grandfather's earnest teachings and wanted to work hard to become the successor. However, later on, he became a selfish and weak person, a person who was completely numb to other's harsh criticism.

"Come, make a wish."

The old man's voice interrupted his thoughts as he looked at Ling Mu'an. Coincidentally, Ling Mu'an's gaze met with his. The little girl's eyes reflected the light of the candle. He did not know what she wished for, but it had something to do with him.

He sang a birthday song, made a wish, blew a candle, and ran to turn on the light. The living room suddenly lit up again. Ling Mu'an kept bowing and thanking him. Mother Ling had a gratified smile on her face and her eyes were slightly red. She was already so moved that she could not control it. In this world, which parent didn't want to give their child the best thing, but since life was so difficult and realistic, what they wanted to give might not be something they could give.

The dinner afterwards was also very pleasant. Although Qin Yuebin had been eating in silence with an unfriendly expression, the liveliness of Qin Kai, the wit of the old man, and Aunt Zhao's hearty laughter had dispelled the burden on everyone's mind. Shu Haoran, who had mixed feelings, could not help but smile happily.

"This longevity noodle, I'll have to trouble Auntie Ling to show it to me ~" When Aunt Zhao was done eating, she decided to cook the noodles, but Shu Haoran suddenly suggested.

"Right, right!" Ann's longevity noodles would be better if Mom had it! " Aunt Zhao was stunned for a moment before she agreed with a smile.

"Then, I'll be making a fool of myself." Mother Ling and Ling Mu'an were also stunned for a moment before they looked gratefully at Shu Haoran once again.

"An An, next time I'll treat you to Aunt Zhao's noodles, it's delicious ~" Waiting until Mother Ling entered the kitchen, Aunt Zhao pointed a few times before coming out again. Shu Haoran raised his eyebrows and smiled, making Aunt Zhao happy with a single sentence.

"Yeah, I like eating Aunt Zhao's noodle soup the most. The sauce and soup are simply the best in the world ~" Qin Kai refused to be outdone while Wu La spoke in an extravagant manner.

"You two little brats, you're smearing honey on your mouth!" Aunt Zhao was grinning from ear to ear as her heart turned sweet. It was not in vain that she had spent so much time and effort on these two children.

"Is it really that delicious? "Speaking of which, I don't think I've eaten Aunt Zhao's cooked noodles before!" The old tutor joined in the jeering. He'd obviously only drunk his fill, but his expression was one of slight drunkenness.

"Old Master, why didn't you move in together? Aunt Zhao and I can take care of you." Qin Yuebin, who had always been a transparent person, couldn't help but to open his mouth. Actually, he had always been worried that the old man would live alone and not be taken care of.

"I'm used to it, I'm used to it. I'm used to living by myself, haha ~" The old man started acting sloppy again. Actually, the few of them understood that the old man and Shu Jingyu were at odds on a lot of things.

"Grandpa, come live ~" Shu Haoran hid the fluctuations in his eyes and requested. Then, he smiled innocently and shook his grandfather's hand, "This way I won't have to go to grandpa's house every day and have to come back here at night ~"

"You, with a car to take you out, you're too lazy to bother!" The old man pinched his cheek, showing his love and affection, "Since my good grandson has spoken, then I'll think about it, hahaha ~"

Why would he loathe and be afraid of such a grandfather? Shu Haoran thought, there should also be Shu Yichen's "credit".

"The noodles are here ~"

Everyone had a bowl of noodles. Honestly speaking, Mrs Ling's cooking skills were mediocre. However, this bowl of noodles was Ling Mu'an's birthday noodles. Shu Haoran ate it and treated it as his birthday noodles.

Celebrating the day they had truly been reborn.

"Young Master, there are some things I need to talk to you about."

It was late, and the old man had gone home to see the two of them off. Aunt Zhao was in the kitchen cleaning up the remains, and Qin Kai had been sent away by Qin Yuebin to help Aunt Zhao. Shu Haoran had more or less guessed what Qin Yuebin was going to say about the other two.

"Perhaps Miss Ling really did help Young Master, but we also helped them solve the problem, so we should settle it now. Young Master should not have any further contact with them, people are greedy, you treat them well, gradually, will be taken for granted, and then pester, trouble is endless. Young Master, you are the future successor of Shu Family, you have to have rules when making friends, and you can't mess around. The old gramps pampered you so much, but there are some things that even if Young Master doesn't like to hear, I still have to say. " Qin Yuebin had been holding it in all night, so his words were already very polite.

"Uncle Qin." Shu Haoran slightly lowered his head, not wanting to show too much of his mature expression, "I understand what you mean. I promise, only Ling Mu'an, because …" Because she saved my life. "

"Young master …" Qin Yuebin sighed. Now that things had come to this, it was not good for him to say anything more. I am doing this for your own good, for the sake of Shu Family. In short, don't be so easy to treat someone too well. You don't know what they are really thinking, so it might just be money for Shu Family. "

"Mn, I will remember this well, Uncle Qin." Wu Tie nodded. Qin Yuebin had summed it up very well. He really didn't understand this logic before he died.
