After the acupuncture session, Lin Feng went out.
An Lan hurriedly had Liu Bo help her to the bathroom. She glanced at the toilet and almost threw up. But afterward, the discomfort in her lower back and abdon was gone.
Liu Bo asked, "How are you feeling now?"
An Lan chuckled, "It's working! Go get the dicine from Director Lin for . I need to get my body back in shape right as my month-long confinent ends."
Lin Feng had already written a prescription and gone to get the dicine himself, leaving the children at ho.
An Lan's mother ca over and asked, "What were you two discussing in the room just now?"
"We weren't discussing anything. Director Lin was treating ."
An Lan's mother laughed. "Treating you? He knows how to practice dicine?"
"Yes, he was the one who cured Guo Guo's colic before. And just now, the few needles he gave
worked wonders..."
Hearing this, An Lan's mother was overjoyed. "It's good that it's all out. Those are all toxins. You're weak during your confinent, so who knows what illnesses could have lingered."
An Lan's mood suddenly beca exceptionally bright.
"Wow, after I drink the dicine and recuperate, these annoying problems won't bother
anymore."
Lin Feng went to several pharmacies and filled three prescriptions for An Lan. He would check on her again when he returned at the end of August.
An Lan's mother was at a loss for how to thank him.
An Lan said with a grin, "Let's have the two children recognize Director Lin as their godfather! Hahaha!"
Their relationship had reached a point where simple words of thanks felt inadequate.
「The next day.」
Lin Feng took the children and flew to Modu. They had their own house there. Previously, Zhang Yuxi and Third Treasure had been staying at her mother's ho. Now that Lin Feng and the others had arrived, they naturally moved back in.
Third Treasure's musical instrunts, Second Treasure's workshop, and a taekwondo room were all available. The children all had their own activities now. As parents, their main job was to ensure the children were well-fed and to be there to solve any problems that arose.
Lin Feng now busied himself preparing a variety of als for the children and occasionally acted as Second Treasure's handyman. When Second Treasure stayed indoors, Zhang Yuxi would watch over him and Third Treasure at ho.
Lin Feng took First Treasure and Fourth Treasure out to play. They went wherever looked fun, especially since the weather was perfect.
In a city as vast as Modu, Lin Feng never expected to run into an acquaintance. Who could it be? Lu Boyu, out playing with his daughter. It seems his daughter is a few years younger than the quads... Two years?
Lin Feng and the children were flying kites by the river, and he pretended not to see Lu Boyu and his daughter. First Treasure's kite flew the highest, with Fourth Treasure's close behind. As for Lin Feng's kite, the string had already snapped, and it was off on its own happy adventure.
This was the first ti the children had flown kites. The original plan was just to enjoy the spring weather, but they saw a kite vendor by the river and decided to play.
The little girl's kite landed near Lin Feng. She ca running over but went too fast and tripped. Anyone would help a small child who had fallen.
Lin Feng picked her up. "Are you okay?"
The little girl shook her head. "Thank you, Uncle. I'm fine!"
Lu Boyu ca over and said gratefully, "Thanks a lot!"
Now a single father living alone with his daughter, Lu Boyu had a string of new relationships. Lin Feng had learned all this from An Lan. To get the divorce, Lu Boyu had transferred the two apartnts and the storefront that Du Qian had bought for her parents back to her. Later, after Du Qian left Modu and supposedly found a wealthy man, she had returned to relentlessly hound Lu Boyu, trying to squeeze more money out of him.
But that was their family business; Lin Feng had only listened in passing.
"It was nothing."
Lu Boyu hesitated before speaking. "What's your email? I have sothing I'd like to show you."
Lin Feng glanced at him, slightly surprised.
"It's about Du Qian and !" Lu Boyu explained. "You've probably heard so of it. When I had her investigated, I found so things."
Lin Feng had a vague idea of what it was and gave him his email address.
Lu Boyu politely took his daughter and left.
Lin Feng checked the ti; it was about ti to head ho and cook dinner. He took the kids to a nearby supermarket, and after a round of shopping, they went ho to make a al.
After nine o'clock that night, once the children and Zhang Yuxi were all asleep, he opened his email. A ssage had arrived an hour ago.
Lin Feng opened it, and his brows furrowed tightly.
「That evening.」
When Lin Feng returned to the bedroom, Zhang Yuxi keenly sensed that sothing was off.
"Honey, what's wrong?"
Lin Feng seed to have sothing on his mind. Zhang Yuxi had to call his na several tis before he snapped out of his daze.
"It's nothing, just thinking about so things."
"What's on your mind? Can I help?"
"It's nothing, just so minor things. Why are you still awake?"
Zhang Yuxi put her dical book away, sat up, and looked at Lin Feng with concern in her eyes. "If it has you this lost in thought, it can't be a minor thing. Is there anything I can do for you?"
Lin Feng stroked her cheek with imnse affection. "Honey, I appreciate the thought, but it's really not a big deal!"
Zhang Yuxi was silent for a few seconds, then she smiled.
"Alright then. But if you need my help with anything, please tell , okay?"
"Of course!"
「The next day.」
Second Treasure still didn't want to go out, choosing instead to tinker in his workshop.
Lin Feng repeatedly emphasized, "Let Dad handle that equipnt and those tools. You are not to touch them, understand?"
Second Treasure nodded obediently. "I got it, Daddy. Don't worry, I'll be good!"
Only then did Lin Feng feel at ease. He took First Treasure and Fourth Treasure to a law firm. It was Modu's largest and most prestigious firm, with hourly consultation fees far higher than any average firm.
Lin Feng arrived at the office with the children and gave the receptionist a faint smile.
"I want the best lawyer here," he stated. "Rember, the very best."
It was already past four o'clock when Lin Feng ca out. The staff had taken the kids downstairs to eat hamburgers, so the little ones were full.
"Daddy, I want to learn how to surf!"
Lin Feng was sowhat surprised to hear Fourth Treasure say this. "Surfing? Why the sudden interest?"
Fourth Treasure thought for a mont. "I just saw surfing on TV and it looked really fun. I want to learn!"
Lin Feng had no objections. "Alright. When we have ti, Daddy will take you surfing. You'll need an instructor for that."
Second Treasure quickly chid in, "Daddy, I want to learn too!"
Lin Feng nodded. "Okay, okay, you can all learn!"
On their upcoming trip to Sydney, Lin Feng planned to take Second Treasure to visit a painting exhibition and a jewelry exhibition.
Back at ho, while Zhang Yuxi was bathing Second Treasure and Third Treasure that evening, she learned from her chat with Second Treasure that Lin Feng had taken First Treasure and Fourth Treasure to a law firm, though they didn't know why.
A law firm?
Zhang Yuxi didn't dwell on it. She figured Lin Feng was just taking care of so business. Since he hadn't ntioned it, it would be improper for her to pry. As a result, she beca even more tender and understanding, which left Lin Feng sowhat puzzled.
But hey, as long as she was happy, that was all that mattered
