Chapter 28

“Like ah, they’re very well behaved and super cute looking, you’re the one who didn’t see them, you’ll definitely like them a lot when you see them too.”

Lin still was going to say that he would invite them to come and play at home when he comes back from his business trip, just thinking that people’s families are special, surely they are afraid that they won’t randomly allow their children to come and play at a place like theirs.

“Well,” Huo Jinlin’s heart is also pleased to hear her say that she likes Dabao and Xiaobao, “So do you like children a lot?”

Lin still thought about it and nodded, saying, “Little kids are very cute and cuddly, much more simple than adults.”

Adults have complicated minds, but children are different, their joys and sorrows are all written on their faces, no need to guess.

Speaking of this, she suddenly remembers the children in Huo Jinlin’s old family, and her face instantly becomes a bit heavy.

“Whenever it’s convenient for you, it’s better to bring the old family’s children to your side as soon as possible!”

Huo Jinlin is unsure: “Why are you suddenly mentioning them?”

Lin still sighed and said faintly, “I saw these two children come out alone to look for their father today, and suddenly had a feeling that although this family is rich and powerful, their father must be very busy and doesn’t have the time to accompany his children, so these two children thought of coming out on their own to look for him.”

Huo Jinlin is silent, the time he spends with Dabao and Xiaobao is indeed too little, from the time they were born it was the maid at home who was bringing them, he only went back to see them occasionally when he had the time, and almost never accompanied them to go out and play, he thought that in his heart, he still owes a lot to them.

Seeing that he didn’t say anything, Lin still thought that he was hesitating, worried that two more children would be too much for them to bear in their current situation.

“Children shouldn’t be a burden, no matter how bad our current situation is, we shouldn’t force this on the children, companionship is the most important thing, a child’s childhood is only those few years, after this stage, you can’t even accompany him if you want to.”

When Huo Jinlin heard these words, his heart was really quite touched, and he was touched to know that Lin was still thinking of him and his children in every way.

Since this period of time, Huo Jinlin can also see that Lin still is a kind-hearted girl, and he is relieved to have the children in her hands.

“I know, I’ll find a suitable time to pick them up after a while.”

“Well,” Lin still looked at the time, it was already late, she was also a bit tired, “Then I’ll hang up first if there’s nothing else, you rest early.”

“Hmm.”

Huo Jinlin has always been a man of few words, even when they sit opposite each other, they speak very little, let alone on the phone, Lin still has gotten used to it on weekdays, and didn’t think much about it, hanging up the phone directly.

Listening to the sound of beep beep beep coming from the cell phone, Huo Jinlin fell into deep thought, his heart unconsciously began to calculate to tell Lin still the truth, to bring the child formally in front of her.

As the night deepens, Lin Still, who has been tired for a day, goes to sleep with the hazy moonlight, and after a dreamless night, she wakes up and almost oversleeps.

Getting up in a panic, Lin Yi Yi had already gotten up on her own and was washing up, seeing her standing in the doorway, Lin Yi Yi only spat the toothpaste foam in her mouth into the sink.

“Sister, you’re up, I was about to call you!”

Compared to those six or seven year olds, Lin Yi Yi was obviously much more understanding, she knew how hard her sister worked on weekdays and was all heartbroken.

Lin still scrambled to pick up a comb and start bundling her hair, “You clean up quickly, I’ll take you out for breakfast later, I still have to help out at the fried chicken restaurant later!”

The sisters hurried out of the house, Lin Yi Yi sent her to school, then bought some breakfast for Xu Juan and fed her, before rushing to the fried chicken store again.

The store just happened to have some goods, Lin still did not say anything and rushed to help collect the goods, organize the things into the freezer and put them in categories.

After doing all this, it was already noon, a few people were tired and panting, Guo Nuan casually made some home-cooked meals, and everyone ate around the table.

“Still, you need to eat more, you’ve lost weight lately.”

Ever since Xu Juan got sick, Lin still’s body has been wasting away at a rate visible to the naked eye, Guo Nuan’s heart aches when she looks at it.

“Have you? I don’t feel like it!”

Lin still pinched her face, still fleshy ah, not thin, right?

Guo Nuan gave her a blank look, “You don’t know how much you weigh? Weigh yourself on a scale and you’ll know. Your collarbone is exposed, not thin?”

As the words fell out of her mouth, Guo Nuan directly gave her a piece of meat: “Eat more! Take care of your own body, Auntie and the girls need you, if your body collapses, then who will take care of them?”

Her nagging didn’t make Lin still feel annoyed, on the contrary, it warmed her heart, other than her mother, there wasn’t anyone who had cared about her so much.

“Thank you, Sister Nuan, I know, I’ll take care of myself, no need to worry about me.”

“Right, there’s one more thing,” Guo Nuan looked up at her seriously, “Starting tomorrow, you shouldn’t come over to the store, it’s not very busy lately, a few of us can get busy.”

“Ah?”

Lin was still listening to the clouds, still not sure, looking at Guo Nuan, not knowing what she meant.

Guo Nuan added: “You still have to take care of Auntie on weekdays, I’m afraid you’ll be running back and forth, your body won’t be able to cope, now since you’re not busy, you can rest assured that you’re at home taking care of Yiyi and Auntie on the line, the store’s matters have us!”

The other sister in the store also nodded and said, “You also have to transport your sister to and from school on weekdays, it’s quite hard, you don’t have to worry about the things in the store, there are a few of us on the line.”

Their store had been open for a while now, and everyone took care of each other, so there was a harmonious relationship in the store, and the other sister was also an old employee here.

However, Lin still never thought of using this privilege, she firmly refused, “No, I can be busy, I appreciate your feelings, it’s just that there are usually so many things to be busy with in the store, and you guys are also working very hard, I’ll come over as long as I have the time to do so, it’s also my duty.”

Guo Nuan still wanted to persuade her further, but Lin still directly spoke up and stopped her words, “Sister Nuan, stop it, I’m also a member of the store, no matter what happens, I should come to the store to help.”

Seeing that she insisted on doing so, the crowd couldn’t persuade her any further, Guo Nuan could only say, “Then take care of yourself, pay more attention to rest, if there is really anything you need help with, just say so, we can all help.”

Hearing this, Lin still moved in her heart, Guo Nuan has been helping her a lot, for so long, encountered so many things, but also thanks to their help, she can get through.
