Chapter 932 Home Is Where the Heart Is
Hearing Lin Yi's voice, Wang Cuiping walked out of the kitchen.
However, as soon as she stepped out of the door, she was stunned and did not speak for a long time.
At the same time, Guo Ningyue, Chen Xuanyu, and the others also ran out from another room and were also stunned on the spot.
"Mom." Wu Feiyue's breathing quickened.
Wang Cuiping's tears fell.
She went forward and hugged Wu Feiyue.
"You d*mn child, you're finally willing to come back."
"Mom..."
His voice this time was different from the first time. This time, Wu Feiyue choked.
"Brother..."
Guo Ningyue, Zheng Yawen, and Wen Wanting also walked up and hugged Wu Feiyue, crying.
Lin Yi had a headache. "Hey, what are you guys doing? It's almost the new year. Why do you look like you're going to a funeral?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Do you believe that I'll kick you?"
Lin Yi laughed. "Hurry up and cook. We haven't eaten yet."
"Wait, I'll make something for you."
Dinner was obviously much more enjoyable after this.
Dinner was definitely more joyful. With Wu Feiyue's return, the topic naturally revolved around him and the orphanage, almost as if it was already the Lunar New Year.
He also drank a lot of alcohol during this period.
Lin Yi even poured half a glass of white wine for Wen Wanting and the others, causing them to shed even more tears.
When they were almost done, Chen Xuanyu and Wen Wanting were a little dizzy and went back to bed early.
Other than Wang Cuiping and Zhao Quanfu, only Lin Yi and Guo Ningyue were left.
Guo Ningyue, on the other hand, cried from the beginning to the end.
If it weren't for her back then, Big Brother wouldn't have ended up like this.
She was the one who destroyed her brother.
She had ruined the best five years of his life.
However, during the meal, there was no mention of his prison life over the past few years.
The conversations stopped at the few months of his life after he was released from prison.
After hearing about his experiences in the past few months, Wang Cuiping kept wiping her tears.
She could accept Zhao Quanfu working hard to earn money, but she could not accept her child being like this.
Other than that, Wang Cuiping also asked a lot about his future plans.
She hoped that Wu Feiyue could stay in Yangcheng.
After all, their home was here. No matter what happened, they could take care of each other.
Moreover, he had suffered a lot outside for so many years. From now on, she wanted to keep him by his side.
Wu Feiyue did not have any specific plans for the future.
However, his thoughts were very simple.
He would decide on either Yanjing or Yangcheng. After all, the former was a place he had stayed in before and was very familiar with.
However, there was no clear plan yet, so they had yet to decide where to stay.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, Wang Cuiping laid out a blanket for Lin Yi and Wu Feiyue and went back to rest.
However, the two of them drank for a while more before stopping at almost midnight.
Lin Yi had just laid down on the bed when he heard the system notification in his mind.
[New Profession Activation (Yes/No)]
[Profession: Police.]
[Profession Completion: 0%]
[Host, please receive the professional gift bag. 10 million yuan, Criminal Investigation (Master).]
Hearing the system notification in his mind, Lin Yi felt that this profession was quite interesting.
However, before he could finish his tasks as a farmer, a new profession was offered.
He was quite busy.
Lin Yi didn't care too much about his new profession.
'Even if you're the system, you have to follow my rhythm.'
For the next two days, Lin Yi's daily routine revolved around shopping for new years goods. There was nothing special about it.
Wu Feiyue's return was like a drop of water merging into the sea. It did not cause much of a stir.
The children quickly accepted this new big brother. He bought them some food and successfully settled in with them.
Although he had left for many years, in the eyes of Lin Yi, Guo Ningyue, and the others, he was still the good big brother from before.
Other than that, Lin Yi also chatted with Ji Qingyan.
When they were together every day, he did not feel anything. Now that he had not seen her for a long time, he really missed her.
As for the remaining time, he spent in dealing Liang Ruoxu, Li Chuhan, and Wang Ying.
He could even spare two hours to play games with Guo Ningyue and the others.
In terms of time management, he could be said to be a master.
On the night before the new year, Wang Cuiping hid the scissors, fruit knife, and other sharp objects, leaving only the necessary tools in the kitchen to prevent anyone from getting hurt.
Otherwise, the year would be inauspicious.
Other than that, she also found the clothes she wanted to change into for the new year in advance and prepared to wear them the next day.
The so-called festive atmosphere was hidden amongst the people's busy lives.
On New Year's Day, the surrounding families hung up big red lanterns.
Moreover, because it was in the suburbs, people had started to set off firecrackers one after another since morning. It was very festive.
If they were in Zhonghai, they definitely wouldn't be able to experience such fun.
When he video-called Ji Qingyan, Lin Yi garnered a lot of envy.
This was because fireworks were banned in the downtown area Zhonghai.
Lin Yi's mission was to bring the children to play and take care of them to make sure no one got hurt.
In Wang Cuiping's words, the firecrackers were all bought by Lin Yi, so he naturally had to be responsible for them.
After playing with the child for a while, Lin Yi handed this difficult task over to Guo Ningyue and went to the kitchen to help.
Wang Cuiping couldn't handle more than a dozen dishes alone.
In the afternoon, a total of six tables were set up. They were all gathered together according to their age.
As for the two babies, Wang Cuiping and Guo Ningyue took care of them while they ate.
While they were eating, one of them even peed on Guo Ningyue, causing her to break down.
"I'm wearing Chanel's clothes! Brother, you have to compensate me!"
"Huh? I didn't pee on you. Why should I compensate you?"
"Then I'll ask my sister-in-law to do so."
Lin Yi, "..."
Was she possessed by He Yuanyuan?
After lunch, it was time for the distribution of traditional red packets.
Unfortunately, a grown child like Lin Yi didn't receive a single cent.
Kids like Chen Xuanyu who went to university didn't receive anything either.
Even so, the denomination of the red packets was relatively small. Children in high school would be given 50 yuan, those in junior high school would be given 30 yuan, and those in elementary school would be given 10 yuan.
As for those who went to kindergarten, they were given two bags of candy each.
In Wang Cuiping's worldview, children of their age, no matter how much money they are given, children could spend it all in a short amount of time.
Therefore, she only gave out the red packets as a token of appreciation. It was the new year after all, so she had to observe traditions.
However, she was still very generous in terms of food and drink. There was meat for every child. Even ordinary families might not eat as good as the orphanage on this day.
Soon, the joyous red packet session ended, and Lin Yi stood up to leave.
"Lil Yi, where are you going?"
"I'm going out to meet a business friend," Lin Yi said, "I might be back later. Don't wait for me and just eat your food."
"Why are we still talking about business during the Lunar New Year?" Wang Cuiping complained. On this reunion day, it wasn't right to talk about work.
"They're from Yangcheng. I'm going over to play mahjong and discuss business."
"Alright, go ahead."
Wang Cuiping did not say anything else after he mentioned that he would play mahjong during the new year. This was an entertainment event that should be done during the new year.
After leaving the orphanage, Lin Yi took the things he had bought in advance and took a taxi to the airport.
"Boss, hurry up and drive to the airport," Lin Yi said.
"That won't do. Although there aren't many cars on the road, there's a speed limit."
"I'll give you an extra 200."
"30 minutes, guaranteed!"
Twenty-eight minutes later, Lin Yi got off at the airport and boarded the private plane that he had arranged for in advance. Then, he flew straight to Zhonghai.
Two hours later, when Lin Yi got off the plane, it was already past five in the evening. He took a taxi to Li Chuhan's house.
Lin Yi was not worried about the many people he knew.
Only Li Chuhan.
Everyone else had a home, but she didn't.
