Chapter 273 Chapter 270: Life

"What? Are you feeling bored?" Li Ruo leaned over.

"It's okay!" Ye Chen smiled faintly and said, "It just feels that he is not in line with these people!"

"That's normal!" Li Ruo smiled and said, "They are all people in the circle, but you didn't integrate into it!"

"I'm afraid I will never be able to integrate into it!" Ye Chen shook his head helplessly.

"I hope you will never integrate into it!" Li Ruo held a glass of red wine and said, "Good drink!"

The two raised their cups, touched them gently, and then raised their heads to drink. At this time, the servant came to pass the message and the lunch was ready. Then, everyone immediately moved and entered the restaurant. The restaurant was large enough. More than ten people formed a circle and just filled. One was not much, and the other was not good. It seemed that the restaurant was temporarily customized. Ye Chen did not understand that the dining table could be adjusted according to needs, and at most it could accommodate twenty-two people to eat at the same time. After determining the number of guests, the servant would adjust it.

On the dining table, everyone was very elegant and spoke more implicitly.

After a meal, everyone offered to say goodbye and saw everyone go away. Ye Chen sat down on the sofa. Old Master Li Tianya drank too much, so he went back to his room to sleep, while Li Cheng disappeared, and Ye Chen and Li Ruo were left in the living room. The two of them snuggled up on the sofa, and Li Ruo leaned his head against Ye Chen's shoulder.

"Tired?" Li Ruo smiled and a blush appeared on his face.

"Yeah!" Ye Chen nodded and said, "Now Imagine the ladies in the public relations department. It's really hard to do it. Every day, I have to be with this boss and that boss. It's painful to think about this kind of life!"

"Life is like this. There is always something you think is painful!" Li Ruo smiled faintly and said, "A person's life cannot be smooth sailing, right?"

"That's true!" Ye Chen smiled, then turned his head and pecked Li Ruo's red lips.

Li Ruo looked at Ye Chen shyly and said, "I want it more!"

"Hehe, then I'll give it to you!" Ye Chen grinned and then kissed Li Ruo's red lips.

...

After leaving the Li family, Ye Chen went directly to the casino. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the casino was full of popularity and it was almost impossible to make a seat to move. Everyone gathered in the casino on this day, and even some students were crowded inside. They wanted to wait for a slot machine that used coins. Unfortunately, some people came to occupy a seat early in the morning, and they squatted in front of the slot machine for a day.

The younger brothers were all in the casino to control order. Some people were impatient and immediately stepped forward to occupy other people's machines, which would definitely cause disputes. At this time, the younger brothers of the Nitian Gang should take action.

The hot business in the casino made Feng Zhixiao excited. He thought to himself that if there was such a good business every day, the Nitian Gang would not have to worry about spending money.

"Brother Chen, happy new year!" Feng Zhixiao immediately greeted Ye Chen when he saw him come in. Feng Zhixiao was actually wearing a brand new suit. In the New Year, he made a handsome, thumping hair. He wore a pair of oily and smooth leather shoes on his feet.

"Yeah!" Ye Chen nodded and asked, "Are you okay last night, brothers?"

"It's pretty good!" Feng Zhixiao nodded and said, "Dahei returned to Chengnan District early this morning. Jiang Wei came in the morning and then went to the bar in Chengnan District."

"That's good!" Ye Chen nodded and said, "If you have any requirements, try to satisfy them. Everyone is poor, who is rich in gangs? Right?"

"Yeah!" Feng Zhixiao nodded. He had also passed by those days. So, he understood the hardships.

Ye Chen wandered around the casino and saw that Liu Bawang, the Four Heavenly Kings and others were used to their current life, so he left the casino. Ye Chen planned to go to the orphanage, which was not the place to raise himself after all.

When we arrived at the orphanage, the orphanage was remote and deserted. Although there were red couplets on the door of the orphanage and red lanterns were hung on the door, it can be seen from the color of the lantern that the lanterns had some years. The couplets posted on the wall actually had the year and date of the year in the corner, which made Ye Chen feel sad.

The rich are troubled by being able to get beautiful, sexy and charming women; the poor are crying in order to be able to fill their stomachs and wear warm clothes.

Ye Chen walked in, and some children were playing in the yard, wearing brand new clothes one by one. The children were looking forward to this day all year round, not only new clothes to wear, but also delicious food to eat. So, they were very happy. The children's inner world was completely different from that of adults. They just hoped that they could eat delicious food and wear brand new clothes to wear.

Lingzi's mother was packing up the tableware, while the children followed other staff to play games in the yard, and everyone was having fun. Seeing Ye Chen coming in, the children stopped and looked at Ye Chen curiously. Ye Chen immediately greeted the group of children: "Children, come and wish me a happy New Year. Those who wish you all have red envelopes!"

Everyone was stunned, surrounded them one by one, shouting: "Uncle, happy New Year!"

"Okay!" Ye Chen immediately took out red envelopes from his pocket and gave them to the children. One red envelope was 200 yuan. Although the money was not much, what he cared about was this kind of friendship. A child was 200 yuan, and it was tens of thousands of yuan if it was scattered. When Lingzi's mother heard that Ye Chen was coming, she hurriedly wiped her hands and walked out. Ye Chen looked at the aging mother Lingzi and said, "My mother Lingzi, Happy New Year!"

"Xiao Ye, Happy New Year!" Lingzi's mother hurriedly took out a red envelope and stuffed it to Ye Chen, saying, "This is a red envelope for you in the New Year, there is not much money. You can accept it!"

Ye Chen was stunned, and the things in the welfare home in his mind gradually emerged. Every New Year, Lingzi's mother sent red envelopes to everyone, and only twenty yuan was included in a red envelope. However, for the orphanage, it was a huge expense. Ye Chen held his wallet, held tears, and said, "Thank you, Lingzi's mother!"

"Come in and sit for a while, it's cold enough outside!" Lingzi's mother pulled Ye Chen into the house.

The facilities in the house are very simple, and the heating is all produced by the boiler in the kitchen. The hot water pipe is open in the room. Once the water is boiled, there will be a boiling heat wave on the pipe. Fortunately, the pipe is hanging high, otherwise it is easy to have accidents. Although there is heating in the room, it is still very cold. In order to reduce the burden on the orphanage, the heating tried to lower the temperature as much as possible.

Ye Chen and Tongzi's mother chatted in the room for a while. Ye Chen's memory was a little blurred about some of the past, but he was able to remember some of the orphanage. However, he forgot some other things. For example, he seemed to remember a woman named Yun Qi...

"Oh, some of the children in the yard used to behave like this now!" Lingzi's mother sighed and said, "Xiao Ye, except you, there is no other person coming back to see us old guys!"

As soon as Lingzi's mother said this, she couldn't help but shed tears.

"Maybe, everyone has their own ideas!" Ye Chen sighed: "I even forgot some things in the past!"

"Yes, they may not come back. I don't want to covet any reward from them. I just want to know how they are in society now!" Lingzi's mother's tears slashed, and the tears slowly slid down the wrinkles. Ye Chen took a tissue and handed it to Lingzi's mother. She took the tissue and continued: "This society is really cruel. They have been helpless since childhood, have no social background, and have no social experience. They go out to work when they are old. I don't know if they are hungry or have clothes to wear!"

Ye Chen sighed, but he didn't expect that Lingzi's mother would have such a broad mind. In such an embarrassing situation, she was still thinking about the children she used to be. These people have never come back once since entering society. Ye Chen gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, they must be very good!"

"Hope!" Lingzi's mother nodded. Then she put away her tears and said, "I just hope that if they are hungry outside, they will go back to the orphanage. Here, at least they won't be hungry."

Ye Chen finally couldn't help it. He quickly turned his head, fearing that Lingzi's mother would see her tears. Ye Chen gritted his teeth and said, "If one day I see them, I will definitely let them come back and take a look!"

"Yes!" Lingzi's mother nodded.

The two chatted for a while, and Ye Chen offered to say goodbye. After a while, Ye Chen returned to Xinhai Apartment. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, it seemed like it had passed like this. The streets were deserted, and most of the people who went to work in the city or who came to work in Jianghuai City from other places went back. Therefore, the whole city seemed to have been hollowed out.

The Chinese New Year is about the atmosphere, money, and when visiting relatives and friends, they bring each other a gift. In the past, the gifts were given by love, but now they gave each other a comparison. The joys were the leaders of some agencies; the pains were some employees of the unit.
