The little dumpling is five and a half years old, which made his father so angry that his head split

Since the law does not punish the masses, Li Yuanchao had no choice but to step aside and block Li Tian.

"Let's go, they should have seen it."

Li Tian smiled and followed along.

With her appearance, she wasn't suited to be an undercover agent, so her superiors let her improvise.

Each role has its own charm.

After meeting, the brother and sister each gave each other their dormitory address and phone number.

They're not in the same department, they don't take classes together, so it won't be as convenient for them to see each other in the future.

Li Silin didn't interrupt the siblings' conversation, but instead started chatting with Li Yuanchao.

It was a rare occasion for the siblings to get together and have a proper chat.

The two little ones chattered away in front, while the two older ones followed quietly behind.

"Sister, Dad asked me to persuade you to take another step. The children are grown up and have their own lives. You deserve to live a better life too."

Li Silin neither said no nor agreed.

"Let it be. If I meet someone I can have a good chat with, I might consider it."

Li Silin didn't give a definitive answer, so Li Yuanchao didn't try to persuade her any further.

It seems like fate is truly at work when two people end up together.

Good relationships and bad relationships are all fate.

"Sis, are you still having those kinds of dreams?"

"You can dream about things in the future."

Li Silin shook her head.

In her previous life, she was trapped at home. Although she knew many important things, she only scratched the surface. Given a second chance, she would be content to change the fate of her loved ones. She had no grand ambitions and did not intend to tell Li Yuanchao more.

Sometimes, knowing too much isn't necessarily a blessing.

"Yuan Chao, the path is right under your feet. When you encounter a fork in the road, don't waver, don't stop, and don't be tempted. Just keep walking firmly towards your goal."

Li Yuanchao nodded.

His eldest sister was one of the few people he admired.

They broke off all ties cleanly back then.

After ten years of honing her skills, she returned to the stage, having achieved great success. Who would dare to utter a single word of criticism against her?

Her younger brother advised her, and she naturally had something to say to him in return.

"You're not planning to have another one?"

Li Yuanchao smiled.

"I don't care. Chang Yuan likes children, but she just hasn't been able to get pregnant yet."

"Two years ago, Dr. Shen said that my constitution wasn't in good shape and that I needed to rest. But in the past two years, I've tried many methods, but none of them have worked. We've all had checkups, and there's nothing wrong with them."

Li Silin was relieved.

If there's no human intervention, then it's just that the time isn't right yet.

No one in her family is pressuring Chang Yuan, probably because she's putting too much pressure on herself.

The more nervous you are, the harder it is to succeed.

"I'll try to talk to Xiao Chang when I have time. After getting to know her these past few days, I think she's a nice person and a good wife. No matter how busy you are, you should take care of her more."

"Being a stepmother is not easy. As long as she doesn't have bad intentions, try to be more understanding."

Li Yuanchao nodded repeatedly.

Shen Yi appeared out of nowhere.

She tried to squeeze between the brother and sister, but Li Muchen forcibly pulled her to the left.

Li Yuanchao quietly introduced a few words to Li Silin.

Li Silin was familiar with the name Shen Yi.

I've heard a lot about their herb-gathering trips these past few days, and the Shen family grandfather and grandson are, of course, among the main characters.

I was supposed to bring my son to visit, but it got delayed because of this and that.

When they reached the fork in the road, the boys stopped.

Li Muchen introduced his mother to Shen Yi.

Li Silin praised Shen Yi a few times.

Since the two parents didn't say they were leaving, they couldn't very well kick them out.

But it's quite strange to take your parents everywhere you go.

Young adults who have just grown up love to play the role of independence.

"Dad, Aunt, are you eating at the school cafeteria before going home?"

Li Yuanchao and Li Silin exchanged a glance.

Although they didn't say it outright, they were still trying to get rid of people.

Li Silin shook her head.

"No, after we've settled you in, we should head back."

"If you need someone to pick you up on the weekend, just call home."

"Just let me know if you need anything, and I'll bring it to you."

Li Tian smiled and thanked her.

Li Silin is also busy, so it's more convenient to ask Liu He or Liu Wei to deliver things than to ask her to do so.

Li Silin waved to the children.

"Do whatever you want, don't worry about us."

The siblings strolled back to their car.

Then they went to the east and the west, each returning to their respective workplaces.

Now that she's sent her child to school, Li Silin should go back to report for duty.

She will also embark on a new beginning.

Without parental supervision, the three children first walked around the campus, and then found the nearest cafeteria.

"It's not even as good as mine. This will definitely help me lose weight."

Shen Yi chewed on the bland shredded potatoes and rummaged through the rice and vegetables in his bowl.

Li Tian and her brother also had a hard time expressing their feelings about the meal.

"We're not too busy these next couple of days. Let's check out all the school cafeterias. We're sure to find one that's even slightly better. If we can't find one, we'll just have to make do. Steamed buns and rice won't kill us."

After Li Tian finished speaking, the three of them sighed together.

I used to bring my own lunch from home and never experienced the harshness of the cafeteria. Some pitfalls are destined to be encountered sooner or later.

Shen Yi put down his chopsticks and broke off a piece of steamed bun to put in his mouth.

"If there's nothing better to eat, I'm thinking of ordering food off-campus; it won't cost much more. Do you want to come along?"

"I can't stand eating only steamed buns every day."

Li Muchen remained silent.

Li Tian thought this method was feasible, but did not make a decision immediately.

Although the food in the cafeteria is terrible, it does have its conveniences.

When you're busy, do you have time to think about all that?

"Shen Yi, let's not rush to make a decision. We need to make an arrangement that is both convenient and doesn't waste time."

"Teachers also need to figure out how to eat, right? Do they all go home to eat?"

Shen Yi nodded reluctantly.

He can endure the hardships of hard work and studying, but he just can't eat bad food.

I can't stand it even a little bit.

If you're not full, you won't have the energy to do anything.

After managing to eat a meal, the three of them went their separate ways.

We agreed to meet again by the lake after dinner to continue discussing the cafeteria food.

It was early September, and the midday sun was still blindingly bright. Li Tian returned to her dormitory.

After Li Tian entered the dormitory, all six of them were present.

At that time, Li Tian only met Ning Xia and Shen Wan, and then greeted the other three.

None of these three people are as easy to get along with as Ningxia and Shen Wan.

He was lukewarm towards Li Tian.

There was even a pretty girl who looked at her with a provocative gaze.

Li Tian didn't care at all.

After saying hello, I took the towel and washbasin and went out.

I've sweated a lot, so I need to shower before my lunch break.

When Li Tian returned to her dormitory, she realized that she hadn't brought a thermos and couldn't get hot water. She could wash her face with cold water, but she couldn't really take a full shower with only cold water.

Furthermore, you shouldn't drink cold water.

I didn't bring one; I must remember to buy one when I go out this afternoon.

"Ningxia, Shen Wan, have you prepared hot water? Could you pour me a cup first?"

Shen Wan accepted the enamel mug from Li Tian.

"You can get hot water at the cafeteria. If you don't know the way, I'll take you there this afternoon."

Just as Li Tian was about to thank her, she heard the girl who had provoked her say something.

"Shen Wan, they have acquaintances here, they don't need your fake kindness, mind your own business."
