Shi Yunnan and Yuan Rui stayed at Jing City for a whole week, and then they continued to rush to Fu City according to the original plan.

Yuan Rui put down his luggage and lazily stretched his body. His relaxed voice sounded, “It really is a coastal city. I smelled seafood as soon as the plane landed.”

Shi Yunnan smiled and walked forward to the exit, “What kind of dog nose do you have?”

“Hey, if you don’t believe what I said, just look at the atmosphere. It’s clearly different from the Imperial Capital…”

Yuan Rui said as he followed him. Then the two of them heard a brittle voice calling out from the airport entrance.

“Little Uncle!”

Shi Yunnan almost thought he had hallucinations.

He hurriedly looked towards the source of the sound, only to find that there were big and small figures less than ten meters away from the exit.

Luo Lingsheng sat quietly in his wheelchair, while Little Goldfish, with a small cap on, was bouncing around on the side.

Little Goldfish saw that Shi Yunnan had discovered them and hurriedly waved again, “Little uncle! Here, here!”

Yuan Rui was stunned, “Isn’t that Mr. Luo? Yunnan…”

Shi Yunnan didn’t hear his friend finish his sentence. He just dropped his luggage and ran over.

Little Goldfish hurriedly ran up and opened his arms to beg for a hug, but he didn’t expect Shi Yunnan to pass him and rushed straight in front of Luo Lingsheng without saying a word to confirm his presence.

Luo Lingsheng stroked the side of his neck and asked with a smile, “You don’t recognize me anymore?”

Shi Yunnan came close and quickly kissed Luo Lingsheng. He couldn’t help but chuckled, “Who are you borrowing Anywhere Door1Doraemon reference. It’s a popular gadget that is used to move instantaneously between places. from? When I called you two days ago, you said you would wait for me at home when you returned to the country.”

Luo Lingsheng was delighted by the short kiss just now, and felt that this trip was not in vain, “I don’t want to interrupt your work or waste the time that we can both spend together.”

At the end of the first rehabilitation cycle, there are only ten days for adjustment and rest.

Shi Yunnan was scheduled to stay in Fuzhou for another week or so, so after thinking about it, Luo Lingsheng bought a ticket to Fuzhou as the first thing he did after landing in the Imperial Capital.

“Little Goldfish was spoiled by you and insisted that I take him along.” Luo Lingsheng added another sentence.

The pair of uncle and nephew’s flights were half an hour earlier than Shi Yunnan and Yuan Rui’s, so they had been waiting here.

When Shi Yunnan heard the name ‘Little Goldfish’, he suddenly remembered his little nephew who had just been ignored by him.

He turned around quickly and saw Little Goldfish pouting and sullenly complaining, “Humph! Little Uncle only likes uncle and doesn’t like me anymore!”

Shi Yunnan felt a little helpless and hastily picked him up, “Nonsense, I miss our Little Goldfish the most in the past two days.”

Little Goldfish was instantly coaxed into being happy again, and hugged Shi Yunnan’s neck, refusing to let go, “Little Uncle, I miss you the most too!”

Yuan Rui came up with Shi Yunnan’s luggage and looked at Little Goldfish with interest, saying, “Yunnan, who is this kid? His chubby milk fat looks quite funny.”

Shi Yunnan squeezed Little Goldfish’s soft milk fat and deliberately teased his friend, “This is your little brother. Did you notice? Both of you have the same milk fat.”

The implication was that Yuan Rui was regarded as his son again.

Yuan Rui snorted, “Stop doing this. Where do I have milk fat? It’s been gone for 800 years.”

Only Little Goldfish believed this joke and called out obediently, “Hello, big brother.”

“….”

Yuan Rui, whose seniority was demoted, was tongue-tied.

Shi Yunnan was amused by the ‘two sons’ and couldn’t help but look at Luo Lingsheng, who was beside him. His fatigue from the past few days was swept away at this moment.

Yuan Rui glanced at the time and asked Luo Lingsheng cautiously, “Mr. Luo, have you settled on a place to stay?”

Their destination tonight is Dehua County, and it will take four hours to drive from Fu City’s airport. It’s estimated that it will be late when they arrive there.

Because it is a county town, there are no starred hotels, so Yuan Rui found a local homestay with relatively high ratings and characteristics, which was approved by Shi Yunnan.

“Yunnan reported the homestay address to me before. I already asked Qin Jian to reserve an additional room.”

Because it’s not the peak season, it’s not hard to book a room.

Although Luo Lingsheng was picky about the accommodation conditions, he didn’t want to disrupt Shi Yunnan’s original work plan because of this. This time he wanted to take Little Goldfish out to play, so lodging at a homestay can be counted as a unique experience.

Yuan Rui nodded, “That’s good.”

“I asked Qin Jian to book the car in advance. He and Yuan Meng just went to pick up the car. Why don’t we wait for them outside?” Luo Lingsheng said.

Shi Yunnan and Yuan Rui looked at each other and nodded in unison.

“Yeah! Go out and play!” Only Little Goldfish was especially excited.

Since meeting Shi Yunnan, he has completely unleashed his playful nature.

Luo Lingsheng can’t do anything about his playful nephew. Fortunately, Little Goldfish is a clever child and he was only in the middle kindergarten class, so he could afford to miss some of his curriculum.

“Let’s go, Qin Jian and the others should be back soon.”

“Ok.”



Yuan Meng and Qin Jian took turns driving. It took them almost four hours and a half to reach their destination tonight.

Yuan Rui was still quite reliable in this regard. The environment and hygiene of the homestay he booked were very good. In order to take care of Little Goldfish, Shi Yunnan and Luo Lingsheng stayed in a family room.

Under Qin Jian’s advance instruction, the boss also prepared a sumptuous dinner.

Yuan Rui chose to go out for a stroll after the meal.

Facing the sincere invitation from his friend, Shi Yunnan chose to “return to his family” and waved his friend goodbye. Then he followed Luo Lingsheng and Little Goldfish back to their room.

In the bathroom.

Shi Yunnan looked at Little Goldfish splashing around in the bathtub, and said with a smile, “I’ll let you mess around for a while. You have to stop after ten minutes, ok?”

Bathing for too long isn’t good, with cold water on top of that.

Little Goldfish, with foam on his nose, nodded cutely, “Okay.”

Shi Yunnan didn’t close the bathroom door so that he could hear Little Goldfish’s every movement. He walked out of the bathroom and unexpectedly saw Luo Lingsheng resting his hands against the wall, moving slowly toward the bed.

Luo Lingsheng caught a glimpse of Shi Yunnan out of the corner of his eye and was distracted for a moment, causing his body’s center of gravity to shift.

“Be careful!”

Shi Yunan quickly approached him.

Fortunately, Luo Lingsheng adjusted his body posture in time and fell on the bed, which was very close to him.

Shi Yunnan quickly stabilized him and asked, “Are you okay? Did you hit your leg?”

“I’m fine.”

Luo Lingsheng replied in a low voice, pressing his hands lightly on his legs.

Shi Yunnan let out a sigh of relief, but recalling the gesture of his lover just walking against the wall, an obvious look of joy appeared on his face, “Are your legs all right?”

Luo Lingsheng sighed and laughed, “Not so fast. According to Dr. Bence, it will take a long time to rehabilitate. It’s not clear how far I can recover.”

It may be the beginning of good luck, or it may end up being just this one step.

When all is said and done, Luo Lingsheng had been in a wheelchair for several years, and his legs were definitely not as good as ordinary people’s, but compared to the previous situation of numbness and powerlessness, there was indeed a rapid improvement now.

Shi Yunnan’s smile widened, and he didn’t say any discouraging words, “It’s good to be able to reach this step. We have so much time, so let’s just take it slow.”

Luo Lingsheng nodded and glanced at Shi Yunnan’s empty ring finger.

Compared with the contentment of his lover, he still hoped that he could return to the best state as quickly as possible, preferably in time for their marriage certificate anniversary.

There were things he had been preparing.

He should wait until the right time to speak some words that had been hidden for a long time.

As he was thinking about it, Little Goldfish’s soft, sticky voice asking for help came from the bathroom, “Uncle, Little Uncle, I’m ready. I didn’t bring in my clothes.”

Luo Lingsheng took the initiative to say, “I’ll go get it for him. I just saw that there was no drinking water in the room. Can you go downstairs to get some?”

“Ok.”

Shi Yunnan readily agreed, got up and went downstairs.

The first floor of the homestay was an open-plan hall and kitchen. The boss wasn’t there at the moment. Shi Yunnan was just about to search for the drinking water when he saw Yuan Rui walk in with a wooden expression.

The two looked at each other.

Yuan Rui lost his usual energy and just pulled the corners of his mouth, “Yunnan, why aren’t you in your room?”

“I came to find some water.”

Shi Yunnan quickly approached him and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong? Weren’t you just fine when you went out?”

“I just… I seem to have seen my brother… I think I saw Lu Zhao’an.” Yuan Rui stammered, and then denied himself, “It’s nothing, it’s just from the back. I must have seen it wrong.”

After all, before Yuan Rui returned to his senses, the man had already disappeared.

Yuan Rui spit out the turbid air in his chest. He was afraid of appearing ridiculous in front of his friend, so he quickly put on a smile of indifference, “Okay, I’m going to my room to rest. I’m very exhausted today.”

“There seem to be bottles of mineral water in the kitchen; go take a look.”

Shi Yunnan nodded silently.

After watching Yuan Rui’s departure, he took three bottles of mineral water and walked towards his room.

The family room was arranged in the innermost part of the second floor.

Shi Yunnan was walking when suddenly the lights in the corridor went out, plunging everything into the darkness for no reason.

“…..”

power outage?

Shi Yunnan was stunned. The instinctive resistance made his chest suddenly stuffy. His hands were clenching the water bottle too hard, causing it to fall off.

As luck would have it, the water bottle smashed on his toes through the fabric of the disposable slippers, and a heavy dull pain came through.

Shi Yunnan’s eyes were shrouded in darkness, and he could not see the surroundings at all. In desperation, he could only squat down slowly in the original position, just like every time before—trying to curl up and give himself a sense of security.

Suddenly, there was the sound of a door opening in the darkness, and the light of the mobile phone was quickly revealed.

“Yunnan?”

Luo Lingsheng’s tense voice was full of worry.

Shi Yunnan narrowed his eyes and saw the person coming through the light. He reacted at once and ran over regardless.

Luo Lingsheng immediately put his lover in his arms. He kept soothing his nervous body with his hands and whispered, “It’s okay, I’m here with you. It’s probably just a circuit breaker trip.”

“It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have asked you to fetch water… It was so dark just now. Did you fall somewhere?”

Luo Lingsheng arrived just in time this time. Shi Yunnan stabilized his heart with his few words of comfort. He cleared his throat, which was somewhat dry due to physiological reasons.

“I’m fine. I just dropped the mineral water on the floor.”

As soon as his voice fell, the lights in the corridor returned. It was indeed a temporary trip.

Luo Lingsheng first observed Shi Yunnan’s situation, and after confirming that the other party’s face was okay, he kissed his lips again, “It’s good that you’re fine. Let’s go back to the room.”

He thought about it for a while, but still persuaded, “Tomorrow let’s go back to the city hotel. Even if it takes more hours to travel, it doesn’t matter.”

Shi Yunnan nodded wordlessly.

The half-opened door was pushed open again.

Little Goldfish came out holding his little quilt, the fear in his eyes disappearing at the sight of the two parents.

“Uncle, it’s so dark just now.”

Little Goldfish belatedly complained.

Just now, remembering Shi Yunnan’s fear of darkness, Luo Lingsheng had to temporarily leave his nephew, who hadn’t fallen asleep, and rushed out with his wheelchair.

“It’s alright, don’t be afraid.”

Shi Yunnan withdrew from Luo Lingsheng’s arms and got up to rub the Little Goldfish’s head.

The pain in his feet hadn’t completely dissipated. He lowered his eyes and said casually, “Tsk, I was hit by a mineral water bottle just now, and my toes still hurt.”

Luo Lingsheng frowned and immediately took his hand, “Come in, I’ll help you take a look.”

He paused, “Jin Yu.”

“Ah? Yes!”

Little Goldfish opened his eyes wide, thinking that his uncle was deeply apologetic and wanted to say something comforting to him.

Luo Lingsheng asked, “Go and pick up the water bottle in the corridor.”

Little Goldfish made an “oh” sound. After the two uncles entered the room, he slowly went to pick up the mineral water bottle.

The little ahoge2Ahoge(literally translated to “dumb hair”) is a lock of hair that sticks out of an anime character’s head. It adds cuteness to a character. on his head twitched, as if declaring Little Goldfish’s current mood—

Hmph!

Sure enough, both Uncle and Little Uncle are the most biased!
