Chapter 111 Cold Uncle and Handsome Uncle
The guests fell silent for a moment.
Jiang Hong's expression turned serious, and he had completely abandoned his casual attitude.
He had always guessed that the guest star would be an entertainment celebrity, but he never expected it to be like this...
The other guests had similar expressions.
I always thought strange beasts were far removed from us; this is the first time I've heard of such orphanages...
I'm suddenly very grateful to live in a safe environment.
[Our safety is also due to the presence of protectors, such as Marshal Ling.]
Yes, someone has to go to the front lines.
Ke Mo stood up, his faint smile returning: "Alright, go find your partners."
He gestured with his hand to the corner of his mouth, saying, "Remember to smile, don't scare the children."
Ye Jingxi asked, "How do you know who's whose partner is?"
"The staff at the orphanage have already paired the children up according to their wishes; you'll find out when you get there."
Everyone got up and walked to the corner.
The women in long skirts were actually teachers and caregivers at the welfare home.
Upon seeing them approach, the tallest woman stepped forward slowly, her smile gentle: "Hello everyone, my name is He Rui, and I am the director of the Third Children's Welfare Institute on Flora Star. I hope you will all take care of the children today."
Wen Wei waved her hand: "Hello Dean He, it's no trouble at all. This will definitely be an unforgettable experience for us as well."
His gaze fell on the four children being led by staff members.
There were two boys and two girls, all of whom looked to be around four or five years old.
He Rui turned around and said gently, "Say hello to my uncles."
"Hello, uncles!"
Because there were few people, the childish voices could be heard sporadically.
He Rui also asked them to introduce themselves.
Wen Shumu stood quietly to the side.
You can tell the personalities of these four children just by how they greet each other.
The little girl with the loudest voice is named Xiaoqin. She looks very outgoing and has a bright, sunny smile.
The other two children also possess the liveliness and energy typical of their age, seemingly unaffected by the passing of their parents.
There was also a rather introverted boy, a little boy who had just turned four. When he introduced himself, his voice was very soft. He only said that his name was Yuanyuan and kept looking timidly at the adults' trouser legs, not daring to look up.
"Today you're going to play with your uncles all day, remember to listen to them, okay?"
"knew!"
After instructing the children, He Rui looked at the guests with a slightly bitter smile: "Because we still don't have enough staff, and considering safety issues, we can't bring the children out to play often."
She said solemnly, "I entrust this to you all. I hope you have a wonderful day."
"Don't worry, we will take good care of them." The speaker was Jiang Xun.
He had taken off the headphones he usually wore around his neck at some point, and his expression was more serious and focused than ever before he had participated in the show.
He Rui smiled and nodded, indicating that the children should go to their respective groups.
Wen Shumu had a strange premonition and subconsciously looked at Yuan Yuan, just in time to meet his gaze.
Yuan Yuan was so frightened that she immediately lowered her head and hesitated to come over.
The other three children have already found their respective groups. The most outgoing Xiaoqin even chatted with Ludwig, saying that she admires them and wants to build mechs in the future.
Ling Suyu suddenly moved and walked towards Yuanyuan.
Wen Shumu, with his gentle features, followed.
If the children are too scared to come over, then let them go and pick them up.
Walking up to Yuan Yuan, Wen Shumu squatted down and looked him in the eye: "Yuan Yuan, hello, my name is Wen Shumu, and this uncle's name is Ling Suyu. Let's play together today."
Yuan Yuan fidgeted nervously with her fingers and whispered, "I know you."
Wen Shumu realized that Ke Mo said the allocation was based on the children's wishes, which meant that Yuan Yuan had chosen him and Ling Suyu.
"Is there anywhere you'd like to go?" Wen Shumu asked him in her gentlest voice.
Yuan Yuan shook her head, still saying timidly, "Anything is fine with me."
Wen Shumu knew that since they had just met, it was normal for the child to be shy.
He straightened up and looked at Ling Suyu, wanting to ask for his opinion.
Ling Suyu raised his hand to check the time and said, "It's still early before lunchtime. Let's leave the church first and then decide."
The church is so big that it would probably take more than ten minutes to walk from the altar to the entrance.
Wen Shumu said "okay," and the other groups also had their own schedules, so they parted ways here and went their separate ways.
After taking only two steps, Wen Shumu caught a glimpse of Yuan Yuan taking big strides with her short legs, seemingly afraid of falling behind and being left behind by the two of them.
Ling Suyu naturally saw it too.
He stopped immediately and reached out to pick up the baby.
Yuan Yuan's eyes widened, her fair face tensed, and her hands gripped Ling Suyu's clothes tightly.
"Uncle, I can walk by myself, I can keep up with you."
He knew that the cold uncle holding him was the Grand Marshal, a very powerful person.
I can't cause trouble for my uncles.
Wen Shumu smiled and leaned closer, reaching out to ruffle the boy's smooth hair: "I believe Yuanyuan can keep up, but there's a long flight of stairs later. Yuanyuan is still small, and climbing those stairs will take a lot of energy, so you won't have the energy to play anymore. That's why Uncle Ling will carry you across this section first, and we'll put you down when we get to the door."
Yuan Yuan stared at him blankly for a moment, and finally nodded slightly.
At first, he didn't dare to relax. Even when Ling Suyu was holding him, he kept his back straight and didn't dare to move his hands.
Wen Shumu was very observant and kept a close eye on Yuan Yuan's condition.
As soon as no one speaks, Yuan Yuan becomes extremely tense, as if she is afraid of quiet environments.
Wen Shumu then started chatting with Ling Suyu, about everyday topics that a child could understand.
Ling Suyu understood his intention and cooperated fully.
As Yuan Yuan listened to the occasional conversation between the two, she gradually relaxed and somehow ended up leaning on Ling Suyu's shoulder.
He discovered that as long as he chatted with the handsome uncle, the cold uncle would stop being cold.
Uncle Leng's embrace was also very warm.
In the past... his parents would carry him and chat as they walked.
When we arrived at the church entrance, there were significantly more people than in the morning, and quite a few tourists were taking photos.
Their appearance immediately drew everyone's attention.
"Mumu!" "It's Marshal Ling! Ahhhhh!"
Wen Shumu waved in the direction they were being called, as a greeting.
Noticing that someone else was approaching, Wen Shumu looked up and exchanged glances with Ling Suyu.
The next second, the two walked quickly to the roadside in perfect unison, where a black hovercar was parked, with Heck standing guard beside it.
Wen Shumu took quick strides, whispering, "Run! Run!"
Yuan Yuan quickly grabbed Ling Suyu's shoulder, watched Wen Shumu pass them, then turned around and called to them with a smile, "Hurry up!"
A gentle early summer breeze carrying the scent of flowers blew in, and the sunlight seemed to be especially gentle on the Omega before it, its glaring white light gone, leaving only a comfortable warmth.
Yuan Yuan stared blankly at Wen Shumu until she got into the car and came back to her senses.
They sat in the back row, and Ling Suyu placed Yuanyuan between him and Wen Shumu, helping him adjust the seatbelt to child mode.
Wen Shumu calmed his breathing and asked Yuanyuan again, "Is there anywhere else you want to go?"
Yuan Yuan shook her head again.
Wen Shumu lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then changed his question, asking, "Why did Yuanyuan choose us?"
