[beep, beep, beep]

However, this time, the other party didn't even finish the sentence, and the "hissing" noise turned into a busy tone again. Lin Yun was left standing in the crowd, looking at the phone in his hand, which had been turned off, with a gloomy face.

Pull the cross bar

I’m too tired from work, my schedule is too messy, my head hurts, and I can’t write.

Everyone should be able to see that now

Also, posting cross-bars in the main text every day and then deleting them seems to cause the directory to reset and affect the reading experience, so in the future, cross-bars will not be posted in the main text, and will be explained in the pinned post in the book review area.

Of course, if possible, try not to overdo it ()

Chapter 129 Returning Home

2023-04-30

A few months ago, before he resigned from the elevator company, Lin Yun received calls from various unfamiliar numbers every week.

Most of them were negotiation calls from clients or cooperative enterprises, so even if the two parties did not know each other at first, these unfamiliar numbers would be added to Lin Yun's address book for the next contact.

And in Lin Yun’s address book, there has always been a number with no remarks.

This number has even become an empty number, but he saved it in his address book to prevent himself from being unable to find it when necessary.

And it was the unknown phone call five months ago, on the night when Lin Xiaolu was in danger, that revealed the location of the attack to Lin Yun.

Lin Yun had never forgotten this matter. Rather, he had actively investigated the identity of this number, but unfortunately found nothing. In the end, he could only save it in his address book.

What he didn't expect at that time was that after such a long time, he would receive a call from the other party again, and this time, the other party actually changed his number.

What is the other party's purpose? Why is he unwilling to reveal his true identity while providing information to me? And why must he act in the dark?

Thinking about these questions all the way, Lin Yun took a car back to his home.

Even though he had many questions in his heart, he could only suppress them for the time being. The most important thing now was to go home and see his daughter.

Whether it was for the scheduled holiday or to prevent the crisis warned by the mysterious call, he needed to keep Lin Xiaolu under his sight to prevent accidents like the previous one from happening again.

But this also means that he may not be able to take Lin Xiaolu out tonight. Otherwise, according to the original plan, he actually intended to go out to enjoy the moon with his daughter.

Every year during the Full Moon Festival, Fangting City will plan a large-scale moon-viewing event. The government will designate a venue, attract investment, and hold a Full Moon Festival celebration and party.

The celebration does not charge any entrance fee, but it provides a variety of exhibitions and performances, and has a special moon-viewing venue, so a considerable number of people will go with their families to participate in the event. Lin Yun, who passed by in the past, is no exception.

Rather, it was because he had had good memories of watching the moon during the celebration that he wanted to take Lin Xiaolu there again today.

There was nothing wrong with this plan originally, but after receiving the second unknown call, Lin Yun was forced to give up the idea.

Let’s talk about it next year, if there is still a chance then.

With this thought in mind, Lin Yun returned to the high-rise apartment where he lived, then heaved a long sigh and inserted the key into the keyhole.

Before he could take the next step, he felt the door lock suddenly turned, and the security door in front of him suddenly opened, and the light from inside the door immediately shone into the corridor.

——"Ah, you're back?"

What appeared behind the door was a figure that Lin Yun had never expected. It was his nominal junior, Hong Siyu.

Then I saw Hong Siyu wearing home clothes, standing at the door lazily. Her already youthful appearance looked even more beautiful against this outfit.

Seeing that it was Lin Yun outside the door, she opened the door with a bit of sarcasm and asked with a smile: "The busy man is finally home. They say that a long absence is better than a new marriage. Do you want to eat first or take a shower first?"

"Stop it."

Lin Yun was somewhat helpless: "You are already old, why are you pretending to be young?"

"You bring this up right after we met?"

Hong Siyu opened his eyes wide: "Is this what a gentlemanly adult man should do? Come up and criticize a lady's age?"

"Do we have to argue about this every time we meet?"

Pushing her aside, Lin Yun walked into the house and said, "You should explain first, why are you in my house?"

"What do you mean why am I at your house..."

Hong Siyu stepped aside and said somewhat dissatisfiedly, "Because today is the Full Moon Festival."

"I know today is the Full Moon Festival."

After changing into slippers at the entrance, Lin Yun looked at Hong Siyu while carrying his luggage bag: "But what does this have to do with you being in my house?"

"The connection is that I'm coming here to celebrate the festival."

Hong Siyu was a little puzzled, and asked with her head tilted: "Do you want me to spend this time alone in my own home?"

"I hope you can go back and spend time with your parents."

Lin Yun sighed helplessly: "They should still be in Fangting City now, right? Don't you go back to your own home to visit them during the holidays?"

"Haha, Senior, you don't understand me at all."

Hong Si smiled and waved, "I don't have any elders to visit right now."

"……so."

He didn't know whether he should be surprised by the facts in Hong Si's mouth or puzzled by her seemingly indifferent attitude, but Lin Yun realized that he seemed to have mentioned something he shouldn't have mentioned. So he was silent for a while and changed the topic:

"Okay, I have no objection. Have you discussed this with Xiaolu?"

"She was quite critical, saying hurtful things like 'I don't want a woman with bad intentions to come to my house for the Full Moon Festival.'"

Hong Siyu crossed her arms and said proudly: "But I didn't care at all! I persuaded her to agree!"

"This is not a topic that can be ignored. Pay attention to it."

Glancing at her, Lin Yun narrowed his eyes and said, "And you can actually do such a thing as coaxing a child... Can you have a little awareness that you are an adult?"

"I am 16 years old this year."

"Ah."

"why are you laughing?"

"Nothing, it's a good thing to have a young mindset."

"You dislike my age again?"

"I just dislike your pretense of being young."

Lin Yun hung the bag in his hand on the sofa, took off his coat, and untied his tie: "So why are you the one who opened the door? Where's Lulu?"

"Maybe it's because of telepathy? I felt someone coming at the door."

Hong Siyu lowered her voice and asked, "I'll ask again, dear senior, do you want to eat first or take a bath first?"

"Stop making such silly jokes."

Lin Yun couldn't help but gasp: "If you really want to talk, let's arrange dinner first. Did you do it?"

"I didn't do it." Hong Siyu said with a smile.

"Then what are you asking?"

"I just asked if you wanted to eat, I didn't say I made it."

"...Okay, then I'll order food." Lin Yun took out his cell phone expressionlessly.

"Oh, there's no need to order food, it should be ready soon."

"Ready? Who? Don't tell me Lulu has learned how to cook."

"It might not work if Xiaolu is alone, but this time we are all together."

"Everyone?"

After a brief pause, Lin Yun realized what Hong Siyu meant and looked at the closed kitchen sliding door.

He strode forward, gently opened the door to both sides, and saw the scene inside:

——The three girls are busy cooking dinner, each doing their own job.

"Xiaolu, carrot!"

"Here he is!"

"Xiaoxuan, egg liquid!"

"Ready!"

Xia Liang was stir-frying in front of the stove, Lin Xiaolu was slowly cutting vegetables in front of the chopping board, and Bai Jingxuan was holding bowls and mixing seasonings according to the recipe.

Perhaps because everyone was too focused, no one noticed Lin Yun's arrival.

Finally, it was Mo Ke, who was floating around doing nothing, who saw Lin Yun. He flew to Lin Xiaolu's shoulder and patted her, which made her come back to her senses and look behind her at the kitchen door.

After seeing Lin Yun, she was stunned for a moment, then opened her mouth, somewhat awkwardly not knowing what to say, and finally looked away before saying stiffly, "Dad, welcome home."

Her words then attracted the attention of two girls nearby. They also stopped what they were doing and looked towards the kitchen door.

"Hello, uncle!" Bai Jingxuan greeted politely and crisply.

It was the first time she met Lin Yun, but that did not prevent her from judging the identity of the man in front of her through Lin Xiaolu's words.

"Uncle, long time no see." Xia Liang smiled imperceptibly and greeted Lin Yun with her usual good girl image.

Of course, the premise is to ignore the shape of her mouth which is still opening and closing silently after she said this, as if she is still saying something.
