Tang Ning plundered the words in his mind and smiled embarrassedly: "I said it casually."

She has always been very thoughtful. In order to cover up her panic, she pretended not to care and said: "Young uncle, you won't be angry, right?"

After all, the saying "I have no conscience" is quite true.

But since she has taken the initiative, Cheng Huaishu shouldn't be so stingy, right?

Unexpectedly, Cheng Huaishu was calm and he was really exhausted with her: "Well, I'm still a little angry."

Tang Ning's eyelids twitched and he looked at him at a loss. His agile eyes seemed to be filled with clear moonlight.

The tip of his tongue pushed down his upper palate. He became more and more arrogant and snorted: "Or why should I coax my uncle?"

Cheng Huaishu bent down slightly, his eyes level with her, and the dragging tail sound was a bit inappropriate.

Tang Ning asked in a daze: "Why... coax it?"

A strange feeling surged in my heart, pounding.

Cheng Huaisu straightened up and glanced at her: "Just don't hide from uncle."

In recent years, he returned home during holidays and reserved red envelopes and gifts for the little girl, but he never met Tang Ning.

I just learned about her recent situation from Su Hui.

Slowly piece together what she looks like when she grows up.

The unexpected meeting a while ago made Cheng Huaishu more sure that the child was hiding from him.

Is he that scary?

He refused to even come over and say something.

Tang Ning was indeed deliberately avoiding Cheng Huaishu.

Because she knew clearly that people could not control their hearts.

If the inner balance is biased towards him again, Cheng Huaishu will still regard her as a child in the family, and she will face the ending of repeating the same mistake.

After losing all the game, this time, she lost even the courage to bet.

Tang Ning fell into a tangled situation and felt that he was so awkward.

She should not think about anything, and she would not be disappointed without expectations.

Tang Ning tried his best to show a graceful and generous attitude and replied, "I know Uncle Cheng."

Afterwards, Cheng Huaishu drove her back to Yujiangyuan.

When Meng Yasong saw someone getting out of the car, he finally couldn't help but begged: "Captain Cheng, let me be honest, is the little girl really your niece?"

Cheng Huaishu said without changing his face: "The children who are fostered in our family are called uncle in terms of generations."

Meng Yasong thought of the innocent pure face of humans and animals, and sneered: "It looks like a minor."

"It's twenty, not too young."

His words drifted with the night wind, and I don’t know who he said to.

When Tang Ning opened the door with the key, his mind was filled with Cheng Huaishu's close breath and the bewitching words "coaxing uncle" full of intrigue.

His eyelashes are long, his thin lips are as thin as slim, and his smile always makes him laugh as if he is joking with a child.

At the age of sixteen, the gap between her generation and age between her and Cheng Huaishu was there, becoming an insurmountable gap.

What about now?

Tang Ning was not sure, so he let out a long sigh after changing his shoes, intending to throw these doubts out of the sky first.

In the living room, Xia Tao was bored and was practicing basic skills. Her figure was light and soft.

"Ningning, I bought peaches, do you eat them?"

Because of that bowl of seafood ramen, Tang Ning didn't eat much at night and was indeed hungry.

After thanking him, Tang Ning sat on the sofa and bite the peach full of juice.

Xia Tao leaned over and looked at her eyes: "Look at your red face, are you going to have a date tonight?"

"Where is there any red face?"

Tang Ning said vaguely, "Just have a casual meal."

Xia Tao had an expression that I understood but didn’t say it, everything was in the process of not speaking.

"By the way, the leader asked you to take a job."

After Tang Ning washed his hands, the coolness made the so-called red light disappear a lot. She took the opportunity to ask: "What job?"

"I heard that the leader's relatives and children had to hold a performance in elementary school, so he had to arrange a separate dance for her."

Xia Tao signaled, "You just came to the dance troupe. If you can help the leader in this matter, you will not only be rewarded, but you should not be far from becoming a regular person."

Tang Ning agreed with a look of expression: "Okay."

Two days later, Tang Ning met the person he needed to help with the dance arrangement.

The little girl is about seven or eight years old, wearing two braids, wearing a soft and puffy skirt, calling her sister one by one, which is very likable.

"Sister, my name is An An."

"Hello An An, then my sister will arrange a dance for you next. Will you learn it well?"

Tang Ning half-squatted and talked to her, even his tone was light.

An An nodded, her soft little face full of joy.

In fact, Tang Ning didn’t have much confidence in teaching. After knowing this, he just went online to check out a few classical dances suitable for performances in this age group, and also slightly changed the movements to make it quick and easy to learn.

Fortunately, An An cooperates and is very obedient, and he can digest the basic dance movements in one afternoon.

After the dance rehearsal, An An took out a box of milk from her bag and handed it to her: "Sister drink milk."

Tang Ning was stunned and took the fun and said, "Sister, thank you An An."

An An himself also has a box, and after taking it out, he has to toast to her.

As she bit the straw, she swallowed a few sips. Thinking of the leader's advice, An An's parents were about to come to pick her up.

The night is thick, and a few stars dotted in the sky with light occasionally.

After waiting for a few minutes, a black jeep stopped steadily.

Before Cheng Huaishu's combat uniform was replaced, the brim of the hat was pressed down and a layer of shadow casted a shadow, just covering the emotions in his eyes.

Tang Ning pulled the corner of his lips. What kind of parents are An An’s?

!

Cheng Huaishu was not surprised to see that it was her. After all, it was him who asked the leader to ask him to take the lead, and he also mentioned Tang Ning in the middle.

Seeing her almond eyes wide open, her face was full of incredible words, but there were still milk stains on her lips, Cheng Huaisu smiled so hard that her shoulders trembled: "Have you not been weaned yet?"

Before she could react to what happened, the heat between her fingertips was applied and the milk stain was wiped off.

Tang Ning was frozen in place, her cheeks were hot, and the place he touched just now seemed to have sparks ignited.

But she was said to have not been weaned yet, and she was a little angry again.

Isn’t it just eight years older than her! Old man!

Just so happened, An An ran over with her schoolbag on her back: "Sister, this is Uncle Cheng."

Of course, Tang Ning knew that the person opposite was Cheng Huaishu, and she had to call him uncle like a little girl of this age.

Cheng Huaishu glanced over and said, "Get in the car, I'll take her home first."

An An also begged: "Sister, let's go together."

Once An An acted coquettishly, Tang Ning became soft-hearted and she had no choice but to refuse.

She sat in the back seat with An An. The little girl of this age loved to fantasy and asked questions. Tang Ning patiently told her fairy tales.

When she told a story, her tone was soft and her ending sound was rising, making people feel numb.

Cheng Huaishu glanced at his fair cheeks from the rearview mirror and laughed silently.

Finally, maybe I was tired of practicing dancing in the afternoon, An An gradually fell asleep.

Cheng Huaishu explained: "An An's father is my comrade-in-arms. He died a few years ago. This dance rehearsal was something her mother asked for, so I will ask your leader for help."

No wonder.

Tang Ning's thoughts were clear for the time being. Looking at An An's sleeping look, she held the hair behind her ears.

When she was eight years old, she also experienced the feeling of her parents leaving her, and she inevitably felt more distressed.

When they arrived at the place, neither of them woke up An An who was sleeping.

A short-haired woman opened the door for them and looked a little haggard: "Huaishu, come in and sit for a while."

Cheng Huaishu said politely: "No need, An An is asleep, carry her up to sleep."

The woman then noticed Tang Ning who was with him and asked with a smile: "Is this a girlfriend?"

So beautiful.”

Tang Ning felt embarrassed, but heard Cheng Huaishu reply to her: "Not yet."

Forget it, why not for the time being?

!

Tang Ning's face was red and he didn't have time to think deeply about what he meant.

"Huaishu, after so many years, you have never been able to take care of someone around you when you join the army. You are not young and it is time to consider personal matters."

Cheng Huaishu responded: "Yes, I will hold on to it."

"Sister-in-law, we won't disturb you and An'an's rest."

He watched the mother and daughter enter the room, and then gently brought the door.

At that moment, Tang Ning heard Cheng Huaishu sigh with slightest sigh.

Peace is hard-won, and every inch of mountains and rivers carries the blood of sacrifice and is safe.

He had seen the most vicious person on the peacekeeping field, but he still couldn't bear to face it after seeing his comrade-in-arms' widow.

My comrade-in-arms told him before his death that he would go back to hold his daughter in more than ten days.

But in the end, he fell forever in a foreign land. That year, An An was only three years old.

Tang Ning was afraid that he would be sad to stay here, so he lowered his eyelashes and said, "Little uncle, let's go."

As soon as she went downstairs, she felt that she had stepped on something soft and slippery, and she was even squirming.

It was not until a cold feeling came from his calf that Tang Ning was completely panicked.

This is the suburbs. Cheng Huaishu needs some time to drive, but she actually stepped on a snake in the dark.

Her voice trembled, and she swallowed her saliva and asked for help, "Little uncle, there is a snake at my feet."

Once this situation is rash, it is very likely that it will not be able to get rid of it, and it will be bitten by a snake that is unknown whether it is poisonous.

Her mind was blank and she didn't dare to look down.

"I'll handle it."

Cheng Huaishu stabilized her mood and quickly squatted down to observe the situation.

When the troops were training for outdoor hiking, he had seen this breed of snakes. They were not poisonous, but they were also troublesome to be entangled.

Cheng Huaishu neatly took out the Swiss army knife he carried and stabbed it seven inches away. Then he let the snake roll the knife and threw it away into the grass again and again, probably not able to climb.

The whole process was extremely neat and there was no possibility of Tang Ning being injured.

Tang Ning wanted to see the situation but was afraid, so he could only grit his teeth and ask, "Uncle Cheng, are you okay?"

Cheng Huaishu blinded her eyes and felt her crow-like eyelashes scratching her palm like a brush.

The moonlight was hazy, and the tiny fluff on the little girl's cheeks were subtly visible.

Although she was trembling, she was trying hard to restrain her fear.

A side face that Tang Ning told An An just now suddenly flashed through his mind.

And when I was upstairs, I wanted to comfort him and stopped talking but feeling distressed.

Cheng Huaishu also felt that he was crazy.

I did feel guilty about not wanting to continue to be her uncle when I was fostered.

He said in a muffled voice: "Okay."

Tang Ning breathed a sigh of relief, and when he took a step back, his lips accidentally touched his palm.
