"Why haven't you come yet? Did she say she would come?"
"She said she would come. I want to go home and sleep."
"I want, too."
Yan Yan was quite surprised. Could it be that Duoduo was really waiting for her here?
When I got closer, I saw sitting in the corner talking. It was Nannan next door and another little girl from the kindergarten who often stayed at Nannan's house.
"Teacher Yan." When the two little girls saw Yan Yan, they immediately gathered around her happily.
"How did you get in?" Yan Yan squatted down and asked.
"There." Nannan pointed to a wall.
Only then did Yan Yan realize that a wall of about one meter could not stop these children.
"Are you waiting for me here?" Yan Yan asked again.
Nannan shook her head, "Let's wait for Cheng Duoduo."
Yan Yan was stunned and immediately asked: "Where is Cheng Duoduo?"
Nannan shook her head again, "We don't know, she didn't come."
Yes, Cheng Duoduo asked them to meet here, so of course Cheng Duoduo came over.
At this time, the phone watch on Nannan's wrist suddenly rang. When Nannan saw it, she shouted happily: "Duoduo called."
"Nanny, is Teacher Yan back?" The voice on the phone was very clear late at night.
Yan Yan was very anxious, but she was not in a hurry to speak. She wanted to listen more to the children talking to each other.
"Teacher Yan is back, she is next to me." Nannan replied, speaking clearly.
Cheng Duoduo paused for a moment before continuing: "Ask Teacher Yan to pick me up."
"Where should I pick you up?" Teacher Yan asked.
"My cousin knows where I like to go," Cheng Duoduo hummed, "but if you don't come with my cousin, I will run away right away."
Yan Yan was speechless, "Why do you want me and your cousin to..."
Before he finished speaking, the caller had already hung up.
Cheng Duoduo is indeed a very independent child.
But Yan Yan was not at the mercy of others. She sent her two children home first, and then asked all the teachers in the kindergarten.
However, no one can tell where Cheng Duoduo likes to go.
At this time, a brake sound was heard outside the door, followed by footsteps, Bai Tang and A Jiang walked in.
Immediately afterwards, Cheng Yiming also came.
Yan Yan had already reported the situation to Bai Tang.
"Where do Duoduo usually like to go?" Bai Tang asked Cheng Yiming.
"A playground on the outskirts of the city." Cheng Yiming found the location of the playground on the electronic map. The location was very remote. To be precise, it was an abandoned playground.
Bai Tang frowned and seemed to have a headache, "At her age, isn't she afraid of being alone there?"
"Perhaps, some people naturally like certain places." Cheng Yiming replied.
Bai Tang pursed his lips and thought for a while, "Let's go there now... But obviously, the little girl doesn't like to see strangers. Mr. Cheng, you are in front, my assistant and I are hiding in the dark, if you can bring her back
, we don’t need to show up.”
Yan Yan couldn't help but glance at Bai Tang and felt that he was so attentive that he even took the little girl's thoughts into consideration.
Such police officers make people feel safe.
"Did the little girl also say that Miss Yan should go with us?" Then Bai Tang said again.
Yan Yan:……
She thought he would forget about this, but it seemed that being careful wasn't always a good thing.
"Teacher Yan, I need to trouble you again." Bai Tang looked at Yan Yan politely.
As a kindergarten teacher, she had no reason to refuse.
At this time, she couldn't say that she would take a taxi there, so she could only get into Cheng Yiming's car again.
Cheng Yiming's expression was very calm, as if their dispute had never happened two hours ago.
Along the way, none of them said much.
Late at night, it started to rain gradually.
At the entrance of the amusement park, Cheng Yiming tried to call Cheng Duoduo, but was hung up immediately after the call was connected.
Cheng Yiming glanced at Yan Yan.
Yan Yan understood and asked her to give it a try.
The phone rang several times, and when the phone was picked up, Cheng Duoduo's voice came, "Teacher Yan, I'm on the tree next to the carousel, and I don't dare to come down..."
The rain is getting heavier and heavier.
Yan Yan got out of the car and Cheng Yiming handed over an umbrella.
She hesitated whether to take it, but Cheng Yiming had already put the umbrella into her hand, "I have to take responsibility for catching Duoduo from catching a cold."
So, in order not to let him be responsible, she had to take the umbrella.
Anyway, she already had a target, the tree next to the carousel... She imagined that when she got there, she would see Cheng Duoduo trapped in the tree.
After arriving here, she realized that she had thought too much.
Next to the carousel is a small forest. It was so dark in the rainy night that it was impossible to see how many trees there were.
"Duoduo, Cheng Duoduo?" Yan Yan shouted loudly, and the only answer she received was the sound of rain.
"Search separately!" Cheng Yiming's voice came.
She turned around and took a look. Cheng Yiming had already walked to the right.
She was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses. Cheng Yiming didn't hold an umbrella, but just put on the hood of his hoodie.
There is usually only one umbrella in the car, so he gave it to her.
She clenched the umbrella in her hand, but her heart was full of bitterness.
To this day, does he think such a small concern has any meaning?
She put the umbrella aside and looked for it in the woods on the left.
However, after walking around for a long time, Cheng Duoduo was nowhere to be seen.
She called Cheng Duoduo, but no one answered.
She was soaked all over and had bouts of chills. She had a slight cold yesterday, and after being drenched by the rain, she gradually felt that even the breath exhaled from her nose was hot.
Vaguely, she felt something was wrong, but before she had time to think about it, her legs suddenly gave out and she fell to the ground.
I wanted to stand up, but I felt very tired, my eyelids were sore and heavy, and I couldn't help but close them...
She felt so cold, as cold as falling into an ice cellar.
Sometimes it feels so hot, like a burning fire.
I don't know when she started to feel comfortable and soft, and fell asleep like this.
When she woke up, she opened her eyes and found herself in a strange room.
Looking out the window again, the scenery outside is familiar, Cheng Duoduo's home...
So after she fainted in the woods, it was Cheng Yiming who brought her here.
She walked out of the room and as she arrived at the entrance of the living room, she heard Cheng Yiming's voice.
"...Don't do this again next time." His voice was very soft.
"Why didn't you seize the opportunity?" It was Cheng Duoduo who answered him.
Yan Yan felt relieved, Cheng Duoduo had been found!
However, Cheng Duoduo then said, "Now that you and Yan Yan can stay together, has she said she wants to come back to you?"
"Don't worry about this..."
"Is it okay if I don't care?" Cheng Duoduo interrupted Cheng Yiming, "If I don't disappear, will you and her have a chance to be together?"
"That's it!" Yan Yan stepped forward unceremoniously.
Cheng Yiming and Cheng Duoduo were stunned and immediately looked at her.
She left without looking back.
"Yan Yan!"
Cheng Yiming caught up with Yan Yan on the path outside the door.
Under the sun, her face, which had not recovered its color, looked even paler.
Cheng Yiming's eyes flashed with heartache, but the corners of his mouth turned up coldly: "You don't think that Duoduo and I planned this deliberately, do you?"
Yan Yan turned around and stared, isn't it?
"Don't think too highly of yourself," he sneered coldly, "Duoduo is just ignorant. However, after all, you are sick because of Duoduo. Recuperate here before leaving. I don't want others to point fingers behind her back."
Yan Yan couldn't help but sneer, what did he mean now, asking her to stay and be in the same room with him?
"Don't worry," he guessed what she was thinking, "I won't stay here."
He was unambiguous and drove away after speaking.
The car drove past Yan Yan, blowing up a gust of cold late autumn wind, which made Yan Yan shiver involuntarily.
Only then did she realize that she was still wearing pajamas.
"Aunt Li helped change your clothes." Yan Yan walked back to the living room, Cheng Duoduo followed behind.
"You were sweating all over last night, and Aunt Li wiped the sweat for you." Cheng Duoduo continued.
She wanted to explain that Cheng Yiming didn't do anything to her.
Yan Yan didn't answer any questions and went straight to the room where she slept, "I just want to sleep now."
After saying that, she closed the door with a bang.
She was so tired that she fell on the bed and slept until Fu Yuan'er called.
"I met Cheng Yiming at the cocktail party last night, and I didn't know what happened." Fu Yuan'er rubbed her forehead, "How is your health?"
This matter was really complicated and gave her a headache.
"Much better." Yan Yan sat up, her mental state was much better, but she was still a little hungry.
"...I feel like I have a lot to say to you, but I can't understand it on the phone. I'll come over later."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
Yan Yan sent Fu Yuan'er a location.
She knew Fu Yuan'er and came here mainly to see Cheng Duoduo.
This kind of difficult child is no different from a rare animal.
She found that her clothes had been cleaned and placed on the cabinet, so she got up to wash up and change her clothes.
She is almost well enough to leave, and Cheng Yiming doesn't have to worry about others judging Cheng Duoduo.
"Miss Yan, you're awake." Aunt Li was the first to meet her.
"Are you hungry? I made fish fillet porridge. Eat some quickly." Aunt Li's attitude was much better than before. As she said this, she had already served the hot fish fillet porridge.
Yan Yan had no need to vent her anger, so she sat down to eat.
"Miss Yan, how does it taste?" Aunt Li asked with a smile.
Yan Yan nodded, "Not bad."
Aunt Li added: "I just discovered that Miss Yan used to be an actress, and my daughter even took me to the cinema to watch your movie. You are even more beautiful in person than on the screen."
Aunt Li obviously wanted to get closer to her, Yan Yan smiled and remained noncommittal.
"Miss Yan, you have a lot of money, don't blame me," Aunt Li sighed, "I had a bad attitude towards you before. I am really worried about Duoduo, Duoduo is so pitiful..."
"How long have you been carrying Duoduo?" Yan Yan asked.
"Actually, it didn't take long," Aunt Li replied, "It was more than two months ago that Mr. Cheng found me and asked me to take care of Duoduo."
"Miss Yan, let me tell you the truth. I didn't like the child Duoduo at first, but later I realized that she is really pitiful. She..."
Yan Yan did not interrupt Aunt Li and wanted to hear her talk about how pitiful Duo Duo was. Suddenly, a woman came in wearing high heels.
The woman was in her twenties, stylishly dressed, with exquisite makeup, and she was holding two boxes of gifts in her hands.
"Duoduo, Duoduo?" As soon as she came in, she shouted anxiously in a high-pitched voice.
