Everyone was talking and laughing just now, and the restaurant was quite far away from the courtyard, so Mrs. Xiao and the others didn't hear the knock on the door.
Now the restaurant is quiet and no one is talking.
Only then did she faintly hear the knock on the door.
...
"Xiaoxiao, this kid's ears are really good."
The old lady sighed.
Too.
Young people.
If she was as deaf as an old man or an old lady in her seventies or eighty, she would be worried.
...
Xiao Xiao quickly returned to the restaurant.
Zhang Bo followed behind.
...
"Big brother!"
After Xiao Xiao left, the girl who had been paying attention to the direction in which her elder brother left showed a surprised smile.
In any case, the only person she is familiar with here is her eldest brother.
The eldest brother left, and it seemed that the food in his mouth was no longer as delicious as it was at the beginning.
...
Xiao Xiao frowned at the girl.
...
"Linlin."
Zhang Bo walked out from behind Xiao Xiao, "Did you only see the eldest brother?"
After confirming with his own eyes that the girl Lao San found was indeed the Linlin they were looking for, Zhang Bo breathed a sigh of relief.
The smile on his face became even wider.
But there was still a bit of surprise in his eyes.
The third child is so lucky...
It's absolutely amazing.
...
The girl was stunned.
His body subconsciously stepped back.
Then his eyes for help turned to Xiao Xiao.
...
Xiao Xiao walked to the girl's side.
...
Zhang Bo:......
All right.
He is actually used to this treatment.
He smiled gently.
"Linlin."
Zhang Bo lowered his voice and spoke softly.
"Don't remember me?"
"We have met several times in the community before."
"You even said hello to me."
It was precisely because the girl took the initiative to say hello to him that he was deeply impressed by this girl.
He knew that his size and appearance would frighten most children and keep them away.
He doesn't mind either.
Although the child was complying with his parents' request to say hello to him, he also felt a little surprised.
After all, it is not like he has never encountered a situation where a child hides behind his parents and refuses to come out to say hello even if his parents ask him to do so.
He admired the girl's straightforwardness.
She is an energetic girl.
He remembered some of Zhang's mother's chats at the dinner table.
God can't bear to look at this couple's terrible son.
So I gave them another smart and sensible daughter.
...
He later met the girl several times.
not much.
Another time it was just a girl.
The girl would say hello to him seriously every time.
Even when she was alone, she would not avoid him.
It's really hard not to like a kid like this.
Not only is it a stark contrast to her brother.
It is also in sharp contrast to the little princess from his neighbor's house.
...
The girl blinked.
Xiao Xiao smiled at the girl.
"It's your brother who lives in the same community as you, don't you remember?"
…
A community...
The girl swallows the food in her mouth.
He looked at Zhang Bo cautiously again.
…
ah!
…
"I remembered?"
Xiao Xiao saw the girl's sudden realization.
…
"Uh-huh."
The girl nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
She remembered.
"Hello, brother Zhang Bo."
The girl smiled a little sheepishly.
She was a little happy in her heart.
She met an acquaintance.
I always feel like...she is really going home.
Although I had a lot of fun playing in the amusement park these days.
but……
I'm going home……
The girl's eyes and eyebrows showed a little bit of excitement.
…
The girl really called out his name...
Zhang Bo was a little surprised, but also a little happy.
"Linlin."
He originally wanted to say something.
For example, when she was out for so many days, her parents were almost going crazy...
For example, why did she stay in the amusement park for so many days but never thought of telling her parents that she was safe...
But he gave up.
The child in front of me has a ruddy face and a bright expression.
Obviously these days, as the third child told him on the phone yesterday, the child is doing well.
This is enough.
I believe that parents who see their children will also feel relieved and happy.
As for other details, Lao San basically told him yesterday. If he wants to know anything else, he can ask Lao San.
The child is here, and the parents of the child are waiting to inquire.
He didn't want the child to explain it again.
…
"Eat."
Zhang Bo swallowed what he originally wanted to say and said instead.
His eyes fell on the half-empty bowl of porridge in front of the girl.
"The porridge won't taste good when it gets cold."
"I'll take you to the airport with my big brother later."
Zhang Bo borrowed the girl's name for Xiao Xiao.
…
oh.
The girl nodded.
Then she realized, "Brother Zhang Bo wants to give it to me too?"
…
"yes."
Zhang Bo sat down in his seat.
"I guess we know each other after all."
"You will feel happier when you see me."
Children outside always feel more at ease when they see people they know well.
"However, seeing as you get along well with your elder brother, I may be being pretentious."
Zhang Bo joked to himself.
He didn't miss the look in the girl's eyes asking for help from the third child as soon as she saw him.
…
"ah?"
The girl didn't quite understand what Zhang Bo said.
But there's one thing she knows.
"happy."
The girl said matter-of-factly, "I'm very happy to see Brother Zhang Bo."
…
"Yeah?"
Zhang Bo was stunned.
Then he grinned and said, "That's good."
oops.
Sometimes children's frankness is really embarrassing.
…
Xiao Xiao raised the corners of his mouth.
"Boss, have you had breakfast?"
…
"I ate."
He finished breakfast on the way.
…
"Eat more?"
The old lady smiled and said, "It took a lot of time on the way here, right?"
"Young people digest quickly."
Maybe those breakfasts will be digested on the way.
Even if it's not...
"It's okay to have another bowl of porridge, right?"
…
It’s hard to refuse such kindness.
Zhang Bo still picked up the porridge bowl.
Don't say it.
As he entered the mouth of the soft and glutinous white porridge, he found that he actually had a bit of an appetite.
…
The arrival of Zhang Bo made the girl feel more relaxed.
…
"Let's go."
Xiao Xiao was the first to walk out of the restaurant.
It's almost time for them to set off.
…
The girl sitting in the car looked out the window frequently.
There was a complex expression on his face that was a mixture of excitement, eagerness and a little nervousness.
To be honest, such a "colorful" expression on a child's face made Zhang Bo, who had been looking at the rearview mirror because of the girl's movements, twitch his lips.
He turned around.
Xiao Xiao turned his head and looked at Zhang Bo if he realized it.
He was also looking out the window.
…
Zhang Bo motioned to Xiao Xiao to look at the girl.
He was sitting in the passenger seat, making it difficult to communicate with the girl.
The third child was sitting in the back seat with the girl.
Moreover, this task of communicating with children is obviously more suitable for the third child.
…
Xiao Xiao looked at the girl.
The girl puts her hands on her knees and sits upright.
Just the frequent twisting of her head revealed the girl's unsettled heart.
