Chapter 379: Chapter 379 New Year’s Day (3)

"Little girl! You finally made it! Grandpa has been waiting for you since this morning!" Old Master Gu said with a beaming smile, standing in front of An Yiqing, examining her with great interest; the more he looked, the more he liked her.

An Yiqing peeled off the sticking-to-her Gu Tingting from her arms and greeted Old Master Gu politely with a smile, "Grandpa Gu, Happy New Year! And to all the uncles and aunts, Happy New Year!"

"Good, good! Come on in quickly! Tingting, stop clinging to your sister-in-law, let her come inside and rest a bit!"

Sister-in-law?

The words of Old Master Gu made An Yiqing’s lips twitch uncontrollably, twitch after twitch. This kinship...

She glanced up at Gu Yelin and saw a smile curling on his lips, as if very satisfied with the address. An Yiqing glared at him playfully, then turned to look at the Gu family members, who were all giving them ambiguous looks.

And so, An Yiqing’s face turned red.

After enjoying a hearty and noisy family lunch with the Gu family, she stayed a little while longer. An Yiqing politely said her goodbyes.

Leaving the Gu Family Mansion, Gu Yelin drove An Yiqing towards the orphanage.

"Ah Lin, let’s first go buy some New Year’s goods for the kids," An Yiqing suggested, unable to forget yesterday’s visit to the orphanage, the dilapidated house and the shabby furniture, all of which touched her deeply. Even though she had been separated from her parents at a young age, Ye Chenghong had never let her suffer financially. He provided the best for her in all aspects of life. Therefore, when she saw the spark of life in the eyes of those children under ten years old the day before, a wave of tenderness uncontrollably welled up in her heart.

As the perfect husband, Gu Yelin of course agreed without hesitation. He immediately turned the steering wheel toward the direction of the mall.

Orphanage

Today is New Year’s Day. With schools and offices closed, everyone has the day off and isn’t leaving the house. A group of children led by Ah Yi and a few adults are preparing to celebrate a modest but warm-hearted New Year.

"Ah Yi bro, do you think that girl from yesterday will come?" After lunch, a few older boys sat at the table, chatting idly.

Ah Yi looked at Ah Jiu, who had asked the question, and shook his head: "I don’t know. But I think she might."

The eighteen-year-old Ah Jiu scratched his head in puzzlement and turned to Ah Shi, who was reading in his chair, and said, "Ah Shi, we all know you’re the smartest one here, stop reading and give us some advice."

Raising his head slowly from his book, Ah Shi pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "She’ll come." Then he lowered his head silently and continued reading.

"That’s it?" Ah Jiu was dumbfounded, black lines forming on his forehead as he stared at the silent Ah Shi, gaping but unable to find words.

The other boys looked at the two of them—one calm and the other taciturn—and couldn’t help but start laughing.

Suddenly, a sports car’s engine roared into the yard. An excited boy, about thirteen or fourteen years old, burst in from outside.

"Bro! Bro! There’s a super cool sports car outside! It’s incredibly beautiful!" The boy gestured wildly as he spoke, bubbling with excitement.

Ah Yi and the others exchanged glances and got up to go outside.

As soon as they exited the doorway, they were astonished by the sight of the silver-black Aston Martin in the courtyard.

Now grown-up, these boys had an intense fascination with cars and weapons. Though they doubted they would ever get to touch them in their life, they always drooled over these things when watching TV or reading.

They never expected to see one in real life today!

"Wow! An Aston Martin One-77! There are only five of them in Xuanjin!" Ah Ba, the most obsessed with sports cars, exclaimed in awe. His innocent baby face paired with his height of nearly six feet made for a comical sight as he ran over. He didn’t dare to touch it, his eyes fixed firmly on the car, unblinking.
