224: Chapter 36: The Thief Leaves No Trace_2 224: Chapter 36: The Thief Leaves No Trace_2 “As a result, your attitude not only affected your subordinates but also your children, causing your sister’s absence to lead the three kids into their current plight.” What he didn’t ntion was, wasn’t their cousin also hard by him?
At least give him so face.
“Hold on, how did all the bla end up on ?” Han Kuang was a bit confused.
“How is it not your fault?” Gu Xinseng looked at him.
“You always think that as long as things look fine on the surface, they are okay, but you fail to realize that many tragedies stem from neglecting the details.”
“Wait, you’ve been criticizing all day, but what does this have to do with you wanting to adopt Shoulu?” Han Kuang finally snapped out of it.
Seeing that he still hadn’t absorbed his words, Gu Xinseng sighed in disappointnt and said indifferently, “It’s not much related, I just felt like saying sothing.”
“You!” Han Kuang felt blocked, realizing this little brother-in-law was making fun of him again.
But he heard Gu Xinseng say, “Seeing you’re not in a position to make decisions for Shoulu, I won’t trouble you.
I’ll go find him myself.”
Leaving that infuriating remark behind, Gu Xinseng gracefully departed.
“Mom, I don’t want to go to kindergarten anymore.” That night, Lin Xiaoguai was drying Little Niangao’s hair after his bath when he suddenly made this statent.
“Why?
Is the teacher not nice to Little Niangao, or is soone bullying Little Niangao?” Lin Xiaoguai was startled.
Although Little Niangao, with his intelligence and physique, was surely the one who would bully others, as a parent, she couldn’t help but worry.
“Nope,” Little Niangao shook his head, “but the food Teacher Wen makes isn’t tasty.”
Lin Xiaoguai was puzzled, “What do you an?”
“It ans just what it sounds like,” Little Niangao mimicked an adult’s tone: “Everything is so sweet, she puts too much sugar, it’s sickeningly sweet, and that dummy Xu Wei is happily eating it.”
Lin Xiaoguai sort of understood, “You an Teacher Wen’s food is too sweet?”
“Yep, very sweet.”
“I see, I’ll call and talk to her about it.” Lin Xiaoguai thought that the food being too sweet was possibly due to personal taste and habits, or maybe to cater to children’s tastes, considering children like hers who don’t enjoy sweets are indeed rare.
Hearing that his mom was still planning to send him to kindergarten, Little Niangao climbed onto her, hugged her neck and pleaded, “Mom, can we not go to kindergarten?
I want to be with mom.”
The little guy had been missing his mom a lot, as he had barely seen her for two consecutive weeks.
Lin Xiaoguai laughed, “Mom wants to be with Little Niangao too, but now it’s not possible.
Mom has to stay at school.
I can co ho next year, can you wait a bit longer?”
Little Niangao looked disappointed but obediently nodded, “Okay then, Mom, you must keep your word; be with all the ti next year.”
“Absolutely, I promise,” Lin Xiaoguai chuckled in response.
After a brief reunion with her family, Lin Xiaoguai returned to school.
As soon as she entered the gates and before reaching her hostel, the loudspeaker announced that she needed to go to the guardhouse to answer a phone call.
“What’s up, Xiao i?” Hearing the voice on the other line, Lin Xiaoguai breathed a sigh of relief, worrying that there might be more bad news from back ho.
“Well, I forgot to ntion when I last visited your house; my family’s house renovation is complete.
We’re inviting your family over this Sunday for a housewarming party, and Yi Feng’s family will join us too,” Jiang Xiaoi said a bit sheepishly over the phone.
“I’ll be there for sure,” Lin Xiaoguai smiled, “Speaking of which, I might be moving too.”
“You’re not planning to leave the Capital, are you?” Jiang Xiaoi was taken aback.
“Don’t be silly.
Shen Chi got a promotion, so we’re changing houses.
Help move when the ti cos.” They had moved from Shanghai to the Capital using a military vehicle from the defense area, and the soldiers from the Capital Military District had helped unload their stuff into the yard without much hassle.
But this ti it was different, though fortunately, it was still within the sa compound, not far from their old place.
“No problem,” Jiang Xiaoi relaxed and laughed.
“My dad plans to buy a big tricycle to sell breakfast.
I’ll co over and help you move, but it’s best to choose Saturday or Sunday because I’m not free otherwise.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t miss giving you the chance to play the porter,” Lin Xiaoguai teased.
Feeling good, Lin Xiaoguai returned to her dorm.
Seeing the nice sunshine outside, she was just about to take the quilt out for airing when Zhu Huixi stord in furiously, followed a few steps behind by Yang Xiaoli.
Lin Xiaoguai instinctively thought it must be sothing Lu Rong had caused.
“Everything’s gone because of her!” Indeed, without waiting for her to ask, Zhu Huixi exclaid angrily.
“What happened?” Lin Xiaoguai turned to Yang Xiaoli.
Yang Xiaoli found it a bit embarrassing to speak, glanced outside, then whispered into her ear, “A few guys from the male dormitory lost money and valuables.
Huihui and I didn’t pay much attention initially, but later we accidentally heard Chen Xiaohua ntion Lu Rong had visited Zhou Wei’s room.”
Lin Xiaoguai understood everything; it must have been Lu Rong who stole the items.
She really lived up to the saying, ‘A thief does not leave empty-handed.’
“What was stolen from the male dormitory?” Lin Xiaoguai asked frowningly.
“Over two hundred yuan in cash, al tickets worth over fifty yuan, a wristwatch, and a bottle of perfu,” Zhu Huixi ca over and said.
“Why would there be perfu in the male dormitory?” Lin Xiaoguai thought incredulously, are n nowadays really that flashy?
Zhu Huixi’s face turned red, and Yang Xiaoli giggled, “It was a gift Wang Han intended for Huihui.” (To be continued.
