    Chapter Index

    Li Min was brought back to the Li family in this way.

    Different from the rough brick houses, the independent villas have gardens, small swimming pools, and even a greenhouse built due to Zhang Enlin’s interest, which is filled with various herbs and plants that can be used to make tea and dishes.

    Li Min has never seen such a big house, not even comparable to the village chief’s house.

    Just like Li Zhi’an seemed out of place when he arrived at Lijia Village, when Li Min arrived at Lijia Village, he felt like a wild rabbit that had strayed into the concrete jungle and didn’t even know where to look.

    “Is he Li Min?”

    Li Min raised his eyes.

    Zhang Enlin was very different from what he imagined.

    With neat short hair and piercing almond eyes, Li Min still remembers the way she stood on the stairs looking down at him while wearing dark blue, slim-cut trousers.

    The look in his eyes couldn’t be called friendly, but it wasn’t repulsive either. It just made Li Min feel uneasy instinctively.

    “Yeah.” Li Zhi’an patted Li Min’s head.”This is my wife, you can shout…”

    “Is my brother here?”

    Before Li Min could answer, a round little head poked out from behind Zhang Enlin.

    “Wow! So cute!”

    “Xiao Yong!” He jumped up to Li Min, but Zhang Enlin stretched out his hand and failed to catch him.”Be careful!”

    “I know, I know.” Li Yong turned around and smiled sweetly at Zhang Enlin, then turned around and held Li Min’s hand.”You are Xiaomin, right? We will be a family from now on!”

    Zhang Enlin’s face darkened, as if he was about to say something, but Li Zhi’an shook his head at her.

    Facing Li Yong’s enthusiasm, Li Min seemed at a loss.

    Rarely had he felt such direct and sincere kindness from his peers.

    Li Min shrank and wanted to take back his hand, but Li Yong directly pulled him over.

    “Come on, I’ll take you to see your room!”

    The corner of his mouth curled up, and his neat white teeth and crooked smiling eyes were clearly reflected in Li Min’s eyes.

    “It’s right next to my room!”

    This is probably what is called sincerity for sincerity.

    Li Min later became inseparable from Li Yonghao, even closer than ordinary brothers.

    Li Yong is an only son. Although his family is well off, Zhang Enlin is usually very strict and does not have many opportunities to go out to play or meet new friends. Most of his interactions are within his parents’ interpersonal network.

    After Li Min arrived, Li Yong’s smiles became more numerous and brighter. Zhang Enlin and Li Zhi’an saw this and fell in love with Li Min.

    And Li Min is indeed a child who doesn’t need anyone to worry about.

    At the beginning, Li Min was a little behind in his studies, but Li Yong took him to study every day, and Zhang Enlin also hired top private tutors for his children. The primary school subjects were not difficult, and Li Min quickly caught up.

    The two children are smart, cute, clever and lovable, and everyone who sees them will praise them a word or two.

    Gradually, Zhang Enlin also began to take Li Min to attend some gatherings and social occasions.

    After discussion, the couple decided to hold a large birthday party on Li Min’s tenth birthday. This was also the first time that Li Min appeared in the eyes of relatives and friends as the son of Li Zhi’an and Zhang Enlin.

    “I really envy you, Enlin. Your husband lives up to your expectations, and your two children are so smart and beautiful. Next time, remember to teach me some secrets so that I can share in your blessing.”

    “What are you talking about?” Zhang Enlin covered his mouth but couldn’t hide the thick smile between his eyes and brows.”There’s no secret. It’s not always like this.”

    After saying this, she lowered her head and took a sip of coffee.

    No one doesn’t love being touted, especially in front of a sister who was once an invisible contender.

    “This is called polite words.” Li Yong and Li Min, who were sitting on the side playing checkers, bit their ears.”That’s how adults talk. It’s very boring.”

    After pausing for a few seconds, he said, “It would be nice if I didn’t have to grow up.”

    Li Min tilted his head, his eyes showing confusion.

    “Isn’t it good to grow up?”

    Since he was a child, he hoped that he could grow up quickly so that he could lessen the burden on his grandmother.

    “Is it good to grow up?”

    Li Yong asked back.

    This question stumped Li Min. After all, it contradicted his long-held understanding.

    Seeing Li Min’s little face wrinkled up and looking like he was thinking hard, Li Yong burst into laughter.

    “Don’t think about it, you will know when you grow up.” Li Yong, who was clearly less than three years older than him, patted Li Min’s head like a young adult.”Of course, it would be better if you don’t know.”

    “Huh?”

    “Never know that growing up is not a good thing.” Li Yong whispered, “Just always think that growing up is a good thing.”

    “Only later did I understand what my brother meant by what he said.”

    Li Min sat on the floor, shaking the beer bottle in his hand casually.

    Looking out of the floor-to-ceiling window of Xue Xue’s room, one can see the stars sparsely shining on the clean sky that has been washed away after the heavy rain, decorating the city at night.

    “Indeed, it would be nice if we could never know.”

    He lowered his eyelids.

    “But every time I have such a thought, I feel too selfish.”

    “I just want to live in the appearance of happiness and cannot understand my brother’s mood. I am too selfish.”
