Chapter 0002 Children

What a racket early in the morning... It's so noisy that it gives me a headache... Even Lei Zhentian was awakened by their noise. He lifted his somewhat heavy head, furrowed his brows and eyelids, and helplessly complained. He still needed more sleep, and at first, he even started speaking in a muddled Northeast dialect.

Fortunately, Yang Yan raised his gaze and made eye contact with the female police officer

However, after this bout of stimulation, Yang Yan's thoughts became much clearer. Although his head still felt a bit heavy, this did not hinder his contemplation: "Wait a minute! How did I end up sleeping here?"

Fang Hexu emerged from the covers with a disheveled head and a thin upper body, peering out with bleary eyes and casting an annoyed glance at Jiang Yuan

They were buzzing and discussing something, and Yang Yan felt a bit dizzy, unable to hear clearly

The dormitory at Nanyue University consists of four-person rooms, featuring a standard layout of upper beds and lower desks. However, Jiang Yuan is not as tall as Lei Zhentian, making it impossible to see the situation on the upper bed.

Reality is not wrong, it's just ... ...

Yang Yan did not pay attention; at this moment, he actually murmured aloud

child

How could I end up sleeping in a garbage heap

Yang Yan still felt a bit dazed

He has never encountered such a situation

However, not everyone is able to get up that early; most dormitory doors remain tightly shut, seemingly without any movement.

"My car is in front." The female police officer shot a fierce glance at Yang Yan and said irritably, "What are you still dawdling for? You hold the child, I will drive, hurry up, let's go to the hospital!"

Yang Yan also lowered his head to look at the child now in the arms of the female police officer. He had not noticed earlier that the baby's small face was slightly wrinkled. Although the long eyelashes were beautiful, the tightly closed eyelids and the pale, dry little lips made Yang Yan's heart ache involuntarily.

What should we do?" Yang Yan asked foolishly.

About a few minutes later, a thunderous exclamation came from outside Dormitory 506: "What the hell, did we leave Yanzi behind last night?"

The bright sky lazily drifts with a few white clouds

The female police officer could not have anticipated such a reaction from Yang Yan. Caught off guard, she instinctively reached out her hand, and Yang Yan handed over the swaddled infant. However, he still felt a bit uneasy, retracting one hand while gently supporting the swaddle with the other.

Father ? Child ? ( O )

He still got up early as usual, feeling his belly, and after going to the bathroom for a big release, he brushed his teeth and came out of the washroom. He approached Yang Yan's bed, raised his left hand high, patted the edge of the bed, and mumbled, "Get up, Yan Zi, this morning is the big boss's thesis presentation class..."

Gradually, without knowing when it began, the desert turned into a swamp. Yang Yan found it difficult to move an inch, and the swamp, having accumulated silt for too long, emitted a stench that made his head spin. However, Yang Yan did not give up; he held onto the little kitten and continued to strive forward.

He used his free right hand to pat off some trash from his body while lowering his head, not daring to meet the beautiful gaze of the female police officer

Hand it over to the state

The other party could not help but frown, and then stared at him as if examining a suspect, asking seriously: "Comrade, I am a police officer from the Shaping Street Police Station. I received a report from the public... May I ask why you are lying in this garbage heap with the child? Is there anything you need help with?"

First, the short hair that reaches the ears gives a sense of competence and ease. Without any makeup or embellishment, under the plain face, there is inevitably a lack of captivating delicacy. However, those eyes, as clear and clean as a spring, still shine brightly, making one feel flustered and unsettled.

Yang Yan slept in a garbage heap for an entire night. Although no one threw garbage on him, he still smelled foul, and when approached, the female police officer frowned.

The anxious words of the elderly woman caused both Yang Yan and the female police officer to cease their argument

Although the other party was serious and unsmiling, and did not possess the typical oval face or pointed chin of an internet celebrity, Yang Yan was still taken aback.

Yang Yan stared blankly, his dazed mind seemed to have crashed for a moment, unable to provide any response

Is there a father like him? If my son-in-law were like this, I would immediately break his legs

Jiang Yuan called out several times, but there was no response. Instead, he woke up Fang Hexu, who was connected to Yang Yan's bed.

At this moment, the noisy discussions of the surrounding onlookers also reached Yang Yan's ears

The female police officer, who was previously serious, is now becoming anxious, and some of her true emotions are beginning to show.

The birds scattered in the corridor, leaving behind a vast expanse of white fencing

... ...

When Yang Yan frowned, she had already regained her composure, for he was not blind. As his gaze shifted away from the other person's face, he noticed the blue-black uniform that exuded a sense of elegance and vigor, along with a circle of onlookers surrounding them.

Sleeping in a garbage heap

Later, Yang Yan did not know when it started or what had happened in between, but inexplicably, a small and helpless kitten had appeared in his arms. Of course, Yang Yan did not mind; he instinctively protected it in his embrace while fighting off the monsters that came from the desert with one hand holding his sword.

It is getting closer, with the mottled walls and the swaying branches...

It seems that someone has been drinking; the smell of alcohol can be detected from quite a distance

Yang Yan was taken aback for a moment. When he looked down, he realized that he had been holding not a cat with his left hand, but a swaddled infant, whose tiny face was peeking out...

Out of the blue, how could there suddenly be a child in one's arms

Yang Yan felt her face burning with embarrassment, wishing she could dig a hole and hide in it

Ugh... Ugh... Yang Yan, whose head was a bit dizzy from the shaking, finally woke up. He snorted through his nose, frowning in a daze as he opened one eye halfway.

But she held back, not paying attention, and only earnestly reminded Yang Yan: "Hold on tight, don't let the child fall!"

The female police officer was confused by Yang Yan's words. She frowned, preparing to sort through what Yang Yan had said, but when she looked down, she saw the child that Yang Yan had handed over, which made her a bit angry. She questioned, "What do you mean? Are you trying to be irresponsible?"

"Comrade police, you must help me..." Yang Yan held the infant's swaddling in both hands, as if cradling a priceless antique, both helpless and cautiously approaching the female police officer

Before the female police officer could finish her question, among the onlookers, a woman carrying groceries could not help but remind them: "Young lady, young man, look at the child! When that person called the police just now, I noticed she seemed to have a fever. She has been lying outside for so long, her face is so red, this is serious, she could get burned..."

The bright eyes of the female police officer left a deep impression on Yang Yan, making it somewhat difficult for him to meet her gaze directly. In his flustered state, he became somewhat incoherent, awkwardly scratching his head.

Yang Yan's evasive gaze, along with the genuine expression of worry reflected on his dirty face, was clearly perceived by the female police officer, causing a trace of doubt to arise in her heart

Child

The female police officer heard this, looked at Yang Yan's confused expression, and slightly furrowed her elegant brows. She said in a deep voice: "This is exactly what I just asked you, why are you sleeping on the street with a child?"

"Is Yanzi not in bed?" Jiang Yuan pulled out his toothbrush, looking at Fang Hexu in surprise. With foam in his mouth, he mumbled, "How is that possible? I was the first to get up! Yanzi isn't in the bathroom either..."

The infant's condition is critical, and Yang Yan understands this. He cannot afford to comprehend his own situation; instead, he obediently nods and reaches out to take the swaddled baby from the female police officer's arms

His eyes gradually opened, slowly refocusing, and finally settled on a charming face

Dormitory 506 is just like this, with curtains drawn tightly without leaving a single gap, preventing the sunlight from entering, making the interior dim as if it were night. The air conditioning emits a faint chill, accompanied by the lingering scent of alcohol and the snoring sound resembling a tractor engine from Lei Zhentian, creating an atmosphere that seems perfect for sleeping!

By seven o'clock the next morning, the bright sunlight had already spread across the east wall of the second dormitory building at South Guangdong University. Early-rising students were also downstairs, mounting their bicycles, swaying gently as they set off to pick up the girls they admired

At around 7:20, the phone vibrated beside the pillow, and Jiang Yuan rubbed his eyes and woke up

Without the time to sort out his chaotic thoughts or to understand what had happened, and disregarding the astonished and amused gazes of the onlookers beside him, Yang Yan hurriedly got up

Yang Yan, whose mind was as muddled as porridge, did not know what to do

Now, Yang Yan, who was taken aback, dared not perform such a dangerous action. He was afraid of not being able to hold on securely, and even feared injuring this seemingly fragile infant. In a panic, he held the baby with both hands, as if facing a bomb that could explode at any moment, being extremely cautious. However, his body still trembled slightly, and his head turned left and right in search of help, feeling utterly at a loss.

Yang Yan looked at the baby in his arms, whose face was somewhat unusually flushed. He observed the thin eyelids that were tightly shut, as if devoid of life, and the small mouth. His mind, which had just managed to clear a little, instantly became a chaotic mess.

As the aunt said, this baby seems to be unwell

The child is too pitiful to have such a father

A man in a suit and leather shoes, carrying a bag; a worker from the power supply bureau in work attire; and several elderly men and women carrying large and small bags of groceries, along with a chubby little boy being pulled by an elderly man

Yang Yan quickly withdrew his left hand, which was still extended, awkwardly scratching his head, and hoarsely said: "No, police officer, please let me explain... This child, I truly do not know what is going on! I am not a human trafficker; I was just drunk... Yes, I remember now, I was drinking last night..."

Yang Yan, who was only remembered by this group of unreliable brothers, was still lying in the soft "comfortable" pile of garbage. After falling asleep drunk last night, he had a rather arduous dream: at first, it seemed that he had crossed over and become a solitary warrior

It is extremely irresponsible to drink alcohol while taking care of children

Wait, what did that policewoman just say? Garbage heap

Yang Yan finally caught a whiff of the nauseating stench coming from behind him ...! ... It was not some swamp that he needed to challenge, but truly, as the police officer in front of him said, he had been sleeping in a pile of garbage

Two rows of dissipating clouds, those are the traces left by the airplane passing through

What is going on

It should be noted that Yang Yan was still in a daze just now, thinking that he was merely holding a small kitten. Therefore, he adopted the same posture as the lonely warrior in his dream who was trekking with a kitten, simply cradling that child in his arms

But now is not the time for exploration; after being reminded by her aunt, she understands that the child's situation cannot be delayed

This dream lasted for a long time, until a hand reached out to touch Yang Yan's face and nose, and then, in a state between dreaming and waking, gently shook his shoulder.

Jiang Yuan is quite different from Lei Zhentian and Fang Hexu, who sleep like pigs. He is a typical diligent student who never skips classes, and if it weren't for Shi Yun being present, he would have been reluctant to go to the internet café yesterday

Yang Yan became anxious. He raised his head and looked at the female police officer, saying urgently: "Comrade police, let's call the police, no, no, let's call 120 instead!"

What are you doing? The female police officer reacted, raising her eyebrows involuntarily, and scolded in a clear voice

The air conditioning in the dormitory was set to a very low temperature. Fang Hexu adjusted his blanket, wrapped himself up snugly, rubbed his eyes, and yawned as he said: "Jiang Yuan! What on earth are you shouting about so early in the morning? Yan Zi... Yan Zi isn't even in bed, okay?"

Now call 120, there is no time... The female police officer first shook her head, then looked at Yang Yan with a hint of suspicion

Like a sunset samurai, he wore wooden clogs and carried a broad sword, walking through the desolate and barren desert. He was very thirsty, yet the desert stretched endlessly before him. He walked for a long, long time, but could not find an oasis where he could drink a sip of water
