Abstinence Admiral Don't Bite, the Softer Mermaid Top Thug

Chapter 108 I am your biological baby

After a silence of about one or two seconds, Lu Lianbai pulled the quilt that the little guy had just pulled back up and said, "Go to sleep."

Jing Xiaoyu hid half of his face under the quilt and tried to sleep for a while. He thought his father was just embarrassed to ask him.

The soft little face lay on the pillow, and he thought for a while with his eyes closed. He couldn't help but stretched out his little hand from outside the quilt and secretly pulled at his father's sleeve.

Lu Lianbai stared motionlessly at the little fish tugging at his sleeves, and heard the little guy continue to whisper comforting words.

"Dad, don't be sad. Mom hasn't come to see you yet because she still has a lot of things to do. But Mom misses you too."

Lu Lianbai lowered his chin slightly, his face still cold and his eyes downcast, but he did not break free from the cub's hand.

He let the little fish cling to his hand, mumbling something about his mom and dad, and then slowly fell asleep.

Lu Lianbai had been sitting by the bed, watching over him. When he saw that the little guy's hands, which were holding his hands, had drooped limply, indicating that he had fallen into a deep sleep, he put the little guy's hands back into the quilt, got up, closed the door and went out.

The alleys of the slums are crowded and messy, and it is pitch black at night, so dark that you can't see your hand in front of you.

Lu Lianbai stood outside the iron gate. The cold wind was howling outside. The dark figure stood there from beginning to end, without a word.

It was unknown how long it had been, but finally, Lu Lianbai opened the old communicator, flipped to the number at the bottom, dialed it, and spoke in a low voice.

"...Well, it's urgent. Please get it done as soon as possible."

The next morning, Jing Xiaoyu woke up to the familiar smell of milk. He climbed up from the bed. Since the room was not big, he could see his father standing in the narrow kitchen of less than one square meter next to the small window, heating milk in a milk pot.

Jing Xiaoyu watched silently for a while, then folded the quilt obediently, straightened the messy corners of the quilt with his little fingers, and put them neatly before getting out of bed.

Without waiting for his father's help, Jing Xiaoyu went into the bathroom, washed his face and hands, and came out just in time, his father had already heated up the milk and brought it over.

Jing Xiaoyu just sat on the stool, took the bottle from his father, took a sip, and noticed that his father's other hand was empty. He asked curiously, "Dad, where's your breakfast?"

"Ate."

After Lu Lianbai finished speaking, he went into the bathroom.

Jing Xiaoyu held the bottle and drank it while it was still hot. His eyes kept turning towards the bathroom. He never waited for his father to come out. After a while, he heard his father's voice talking on the phone from the bathroom.

Jing Xiaoyu pricked up her ears to listen, and couldn't help but climb down from the stool. She walked to the outside of the bathroom while drinking milk, and then she saw this scene -

Lu Lianbai stood in front of the cement faucet, his head slightly tilted, a worn communicator clipped to his left shoulder and ear. He was talking on the phone while washing the cub's clothes in the basin by hand.

"Count the goods and send it to me later."

"Okay, can I send it over tomorrow?"

"Boss Rong, a new batch of goods will arrive at 5 pm. Do you need to come and take a look? Okay, I'll ask someone to keep it for you in advance." Each of Lu Lianbai's phone calls was very short. After each call, he would free up one hand to dial the next number on the old screen, and the other hand was not idle either, continuing to wring out the washed clothes.

Until Jing Xiaoyu finished drinking the milk, Lu Lianbai came out with a basin of washed clothes to hang out to dry. Seeing Jing Xiaoyu standing at the door, his expression did not change at all, and he just gave her a faint reminder.

"I'm going out to go on a boat trip soon, so I won't be back soon."

Lu Lianbai's implication was that Jing Xiaoyu should go find Nan Ya, but Jing Xiaoyu eagerly followed after hearing this, "Then can I go with Dad? I won't cause any trouble!"

Lu Lianbai paused slightly while hanging the clothes, then continued.

"I don't have time to accompany you. If you can't stand it anymore, just tell me and I'll take you to the station anytime."

Jing Xiaoyu shook his head vigorously as if stressed out, "No!"

Then she couldn't help but grumble, "I won't go with Daddy. Why do you always chase me away? I'm your biological baby."

Lu Lianbai didn't say anything. He hung up the clothes, took the keys and was about to go out.

Jing Xiaoyu followed him all the way to the door, "Dad, will you be back for lunch?"

"No."

Jing Xiaoyu watched his father's figure on the motorcycle quickly disappear at the end of the alley, and sighed heavily like a little adult. He returned to the house and saw a kettle filled with boiled water on the table. Next to it was a mixture of milk bottles and milk powder, so that Jing Xiaoyu could make milk whenever he was hungry.

Jing Xiaoyu packed the water and milk bottle into her small shell backpack, put it on her back, and planned to go out to find a job.

Things are different now. He can't put the burden of supporting the family on his father alone. He also needs to make money.

However, Jing Xiaoyu promised his father that he would no longer go to the garbage area to pick up trash, so he carried his schoolbag and looked for a suitable job in the neighborhood.

Soon, Jing Xiaoyu saw a stall on an old street in the slums where several broken cars waiting to be repaired were parked in a mess. Outside the door was a sign with the words "Recruiting" written crookedly in red pen.

Jing Xiaoyu's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he walked in with his schoolbag and asked politely.

As a result, A Miao, the woman who was sitting on the dirty ground looking for tools to repair a tire, paused when she heard the sound. She looked up and saw the baby standing in front of her, her eyes wide open. It was obvious that she had never seen such a fair and beautiful baby in the slums. Before she could come to her senses, she heard the little guy say something even more ridiculous.

A Miao was immediately annoyed. "Whose family in the upper city are you from? Why are you running off to a shabby place like the slums for no reason? And you're applying for a job as a mechanic. You're not even breastfeeding yet, and you're running out? Do you think this is a game? Call your family and pick you up!"

Jing Xiaoyu was scolded, but she didn't get angry. Instead, she pleaded sincerely, "Sister, I really can repair this simple little car. I'm not here for fun. My dad's work is not easy right now, and I just want to earn some money to help him. Please let me give it a try?"

Ah Miao frowned and glared at the child in front of her, a complex expression on her face for a moment. She didn't know whether to question whether this little thing, still nursing, treated these as toys at home? How dare they call these cars "small cars" and say they were simple and easy to repair...

I should ask why the child, who looks fair and tender, and is obviously well-fed by his family, is so poor that he needs to work to earn money...

But A Miao didn't hesitate for too long. She put down the tools in her hand and said, "Okay, if you can fix the tire of this truck, I will pay you by the hour."
