The sound of the fan turning seems to have gotten louder.
The summer heat was blown away, but the dull atmosphere seemed to bring substantial pressure, which weighed heavily on the hearts of the two of them.
It's been a long time since Xiao Yao deliberately forgot about it, and he didn't think about it for a long time.
After all, back then, the feeling of being betrayed by someone he trusted made him once doubt the value of the kindness he gave out of sympathy and appreciation.
When his parents had an accident, Jiang Chengkun and Lin Tong were not obligated to adopt him.
Xiao Yao didn't think about what his future would be like if he was not adopted by the Jiang family.
At that time, he was like a hedgehog, heavily armed with a hard shell and sharp thorns.
Not to mention that those nominal relatives did not want to adopt him, and Xiao Yao himself did not want to step into a new family and recognize new parents.
It's as if you can pretend that your parents are still alive.
In such a state, he met Jiang Chengkun and Lin Tong.
The two were dressed very solemnly, with a solemn expression and a sincere attitude. They did not fool him like a child, but talked to him face-to-face and earnestly, including those disturbing imaginations and conjectures.
"Your parents have a trust fund for you, which you can use when you become an adult."
"So, we just hope to take care of you before you reach adulthood. Of course, there are also some selfishness."
After listening to these two sentences, the boy who had been reluctant to look at them finally stopped being indifferent.
The long eyelashes were lifted, revealing the big black eyes.
Jiang Chengkun and Lin Tong were startled.
In the past, this child was always reluctant to meet their eyes, but now...
"You look like your mother, but your eyes look like your father." Thinking of the old man, Lin Tong's tone couldn't hide his sadness and choking. "You all have very beautiful, very bright eyes."
Jiang Chengkun hugged his wife.
His mood was obviously not very stable, but he tried very hard to control it.
Not for others, just because they face to face with children who have lost their parents forever.
No matter how sad it is, compared to Xiao Yao's pain, it seems to be sloppy.
They are there to help each other, not to make him more uncomfortable.
"We have a daughter named Xiao Tian. Because of the nature of work, Tongtong and I can't always accompany her."
"Although Xiao Tian is very independent and never bothers us, she is just a girl still in elementary school. She is left at home alone. Even if she asks neighbors to take care of her, she also hires an aunt to clean up and prepare three meals a day. , it is still difficult for us to rest assured.”
"So, if you want, we hope you can live with Xiao Tian and take care of each other."
"Besides, you are of the same age, so it should be easier to get used to it. Although the child is a little quieter, she mentioned to us when she was a child that she wants to have a brother."
"I think... this is probably a kind of fate."
Speaking of his daughter, Jiang Chengkun's voice unconsciously brought a smile, and so did Lin Tong. When the couple met eyes, the tacit understanding of trusting each other and relying on each other could not be faked.
Xiao Yao can also feel their intentions, which are much more sincere than those who came to visit him in the past.
I really want to adopt myself, and I really want to find someone to accompany my daughter.
Probably, this is the best option for now.
Xiao Yao thought.
"Okay." Compared with the ecstatic couple who reacted, Xiao Yao looked quite calm. "I promise you."
Later, he moved to Beijing to live with Jiang Xiaotian, where he met Xue Yayan.
The fate of life is really amazing.
Going around in circles, you don't know who you will meet, reunite, separate, and say goodbye to when you reach the next intersection. All you can do is to grasp the moment.
After coming to live in Jiang's house, Xiao Yao was particularly touched.
Although he is cold-hearted and does not like to have deep relationships with people, he will not hesitate to lend a helping hand if he encounters someone who needs help.
It's like Lin Mei'an, who is a work-study student.
Who would have thought that he would be bitten back in the end.
It would be a lie to say that there is no influence at all. It is not enough to be disheartened, but it is inevitable to feel disappointed and chilled.
Still a little dazed.
"I think it's not easy for her." Xiao Yao said with difficulty. "So take care of her in daily life, but there is absolutely no behavior that crosses the line."
"As for good feelings, it's not so much that I didn't notice it, it's better to say that I don't think it's anything."
Xue Xue could understand what Xiao Yao meant.
There are definitely not a few girls who have a good impression of Xiao Yao. As he said before, it is someone else's business that others are interested in him. All he can do is maintain a proper distance so that people will not be misunderstood.
However, Xiao Yao couldn't control what the other party thought.
Not everyone can think rationally, especially under impulsive, emotional will often prevail and dominate our will.
"As far as things are concerned, they cannot be confused." Xue Xue finally said to Xiao Yao: "There is nothing wrong with giving kindness, but kindness should be cherished instead of wasted."
"Her experience is indeed worthy of sympathy, but it should not be the reason for her to hurt you."
"You are innocent." Xue Xue lifted Xiao Yao's face and looked into the depths of his dark eyes. "You don't need to blame yourself for this."
