The holiday isn't over yet, but the real time for the family is yet to come.

Even though Lusca's identity was exposed, He Xun's identity was also stripped away.

Undoubtedly, he remains the exclusive distributor of Mochale Pharmaceuticals in the Xiangshi area.

If time is not taken into account and Lusca refuses to concede, his lawsuit with Progress Pharmaceuticals will be a protracted battle measured in years.

The process not only consumes the company's human and material resources, but also the trust of consumers in the company.

This is the most deadly.

"I have some business to attend to at the company, so I have to go now. Remember to lock the doors and windows and don't let outsiders in."

Yu Lian always felt that his words before leaving were meaningful, but she had no evidence.

"Mom, can my brother and I go to the corner store to buy snacks?"

"An'an, what's missing?"

He Ning'an shook the notebook in his hand, which was full of writing on the last page.

She was so busy lately that she forgot to prepare school supplies for the children.

"Okay, you can't buy too many, you can only choose one."

There is a small street at the entrance of the community with a few scattered shops, which is convenient for nearby residents.

Whenever He Ning'an went out, three little tails always followed behind him.

Unbeknownst to them, the four siblings grew closer and closer.

This was something that had never happened before Yu Lian appeared.

"Brother, can I have one? Please don't tell Mom!"

He Ningxi clasped her hands together and looked at her brother innocently, her mouth full of pleading words.

Looking at his younger sister, He Ning'an had no intention of helping her whatsoever.

"No way, you had a nosebleed the night before last, didn't you?"

"Oh……"

He Ningchuan watched his sister get the short end of the stick and laughed all the way.

This community used to be almost entirely populated by elderly people.

The community used to be quite quiet, but now that there are a few kids around, almost every household knows them.

People were particularly surprised by triplets, as they are rarely seen in daily life.

"Going to the corner store to buy snacks again? Does Mom know?"

Once, He Ningxi secretly went to buy snacks and was discovered by her mother. The two women were locked in a standoff from the community gate all the way to their home.

On the way, the two gloating brothers told the residents along the street about how their sister had been sick and had been caught by her mother for stealing food instead of following the doctor's orders.

Now, when I occasionally run into residents or neighbors in the community on the street, I sometimes tease a few of the children.

"Hello, Mother-in-law. Mom knows and agrees."

The children are well-behaved and sensible in front of others, and are deeply loved by the elderly in the community.

Walking in the community often results in being fed various things.

"That's good, watch out for cars when crossing the street."

"Okay, Mother-in-law, please take your time."

The children walked and stopped frequently, their attention drawn to the greenery along the road.

"How about I go first, and you guys stay here and play?"

He Ning'an was in a hurry to buy his own notebook to do his homework. His younger siblings always wasted his time when he went out.

"No, what if we get kidnapped by bad guys if you leave?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure slowly appeared around the corner.

"It's you guys?"

"Hello, Uncle Li!"

The children greeted each other in unison.

Li Yanshen looked terrible; even the youngest child, Manman, could tell.

"Uncle Li, why aren't you resting at home?"

Li Yanshen waved his hand, "Alright, An'an, hurry back. I'll look after your younger brother and sister for you."

He Ning'an hesitated for a moment, and only after Li Yanshen repeatedly assured her did she turn around and run away.

They were only a few dozen meters from the gate, and if there weren't many people at the convenience store, he could be back in less than three minutes.

He Ning'an quickly ran to the small shop across the street, bought notebooks and snacks for her younger siblings, and then returned to the community.

The group remained standing in the same spot, observing the ants on the ground.

The only difference was that, as the adult watching the children, Li Yan was now squatting down next to them, explaining in a soft voice the reasons why the ants behaved this way.

"Uncle Li, you're amazing! I wish you could be my dad!"

He Ningchuan was just expressing his feelings, but was scolded by his older brother behind him.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Uncle Li, my brother is prone to saying things he doesn't mean. Don't take it to heart. Let's go back together. I heard from my mom that you've been feeling better lately because of your medication?"

Like a mature adult, He Ning'an skillfully changed the subject and began to inquire about Li Yanshen's health.

"Yes, your mother is really amazing. She led a professional team to develop such a powerful medicine. If it weren't for your mother, I would be lying on the ground right now."

Li Yanshen's words were filled with gratitude.

But then he suddenly changed the subject, "An'an, how old are you this year?"

"Big brother is twelve years old!"

He Ning'an not only has a little tail, but also a little mouth that loves to answer questions. Their favorite thing is to answer questions.

"Twelve years old... soon. In a few more years, when you're an adult, you'll definitely be taller than Uncle Li."

He Ning'an nodded. He was used to it because he had grown a little taller after starting junior high school.

So during the Chinese New Year, many relatives and elders were talking about this.

"We've arrived. You can go back now."

There was no lengthy farewell; as usual, the group turned and left.

But a small truck was parked on the side of the road.

"Is this Mr. Li's home?"

Li Yanshen turned his head and heard the continuous chirping of cotton in his ears.

"Yes, are you delivering a dog?"

"Yes, should I give it to you at your door or inside?"

Li Yanshen glanced at the iron cage inside the carriage; he clearly couldn't move it by himself.

"Could you please help me move it into the yard?"

After receiving confirmation, a driver got off the bus.

The two men moved the deaf man into the yard and then removed the black cloth.

"Sir, we have already checked it before you came. Please sign here after you have confirmed that everything is correct."

Li Yanshen signed his name without checking.

Thank you.

After seeing off the dog deliveryman, Li Yanshen stood at the door for another ten seconds or so.

Unable to contain his curiosity, He Ningchuan peeked out from the opposite side and asked, "Uncle Li, why did you buy such a big cage?"

"I bought a dog so it could keep me company."

Upon hearing that Li Yanshen had bought a dog, He Ningchuan immediately ran to his side.

Then, with practiced ease, they entered the courtyard.

"Wow! Uncle Li's dog looks exactly like Cotton. It's just a little smaller. Is it Cotton's brother or sister?"

"It's my younger brother."

"Great! I'll go tell Cotton and Mommy."

Li Yanshen just smiled and didn't say anything, watching He Ningchuan run home.

Soon after, even Yu Lian, out of curiosity, came to see the dog.

This dog looks expensive, just look at its shiny fur and physique.

"How many months?"

"More than three months."

"It's only been a little over three months and we've already caught up with half of the cotton harvest," Yu Lian shook her head. "It must have cost a lot of money, right?"

Yu Lian wasn't worried about the money; before raising cotton, she didn't realize that raising a dog required paying attention to many things.

Seeing this dog reminded her of something a professional had told her.

"Your health has improved a lot now. Getting a dog would be nice, at least you'd have something to think about. By the way, come pick up your medication at home promptly. Take care of yourself."

Yu Lian didn't stay long, and Li Yanshen didn't try to stop her. They followed the children and watched the little dog frolicking in the cage.

That's exactly what he was waiting for.
