Chapter 309: Chapter 309: True· Embrace the Wind and Sleep

In the absence of Mao Sanmei’s confirmed identity and without official procedures, Xu Liangyou should not have let Mao Sanmei take the child away.

But due to the relationship between Shen Siyuan and Ruan Hongzhuang, he agreed to the request. After all, with Jiang Yingxue, the major sponsor around, both Eastern Shipping and Ruan Hongzhuang’s Red Hearts International could be verified.

Still, he decided to drive and help by dropping them off at Sea Breeze District, partly because there were too many people to fit and also as a precaution.

His cautious attitude did not upset Shen Siyuan; rather, he appreciated such vigilance as it further safeguarded the children’s safety.

"I won’t go up, you can come over on Monday to handle the procedures."

After dropping them off at the building, Xu Liangyou chose not to go upstairs.

"Do you have time tomorrow?" Shen Siyuan asked.

He needed to go to Ruan Hongzhuang’s company on Monday.

"Some departments are off tomorrow," Xu Liangyou replied.

"It’s fine, Miss Song has already arranged everything, we can proceed tomorrow," Shen Siyuan said.

Hearing this, Xu Liangyou was somewhat surprised but didn’t comment further; instead, he nodded, "No problem, I’m available tomorrow."

"Thank you for your trouble," Shen Siyuan politely said.

"It’s no trouble, it’s part of my job. I’ll leave you to it," Xu Liangyou responded with a smile.

Then he turned to look at Tang Tang, who was held in Mao Sanmei’s arms.

"Tang Tang, say goodbye to grandpa," Xu Liangyou knew she couldn’t hear, but he still waved at her.

"han~"

Tang Tang also smiled naively and waved her little hand.

Xu Liangyou looked at Tang Tang with a complex expression. After all the time he’d spent caring for her, he found it hard to let go.

Ruan Hongzhuang seemed to notice Xu Liangyou’s expression and comforted him, "Tang Tang will be living here with her mom, and you can visit her at Rainbow House during your rest."

Xu Liangyou nodded with a smile and left without looking back.

Watching him go, Ding Simei said to Ruan Hongzhuang, "Uncle Xu is really a good man."

Having learned about the situation at Rainbow House, she felt admiration for the couple’s actions.

Ruan Hongzhuang corrected her, "This whole family is good."

With that, she said, "Let’s go inside."

Saying this, she turned and walked towards the staircase, where Dou Dou and Duoduo were tiptoeing, trying to reach the doorbell.

But they were too short and even on tiptoes, they couldn’t reach.

Ding Simei watched Shen Siyuan approach, thinking he would either open the door or press the bell himself, but instead, he bent down and lifted the two little girls so they could press the bell themselves.

This surprised Ding Simei, as adults rarely notice such details, often making decisions for children themselves, showing that Shen Siyuan must be a very gentle person in his daily life.

This made her feel quite reassured about the future life of Tang Tang and her mother.

Upon reaching their floor, Duoduo was the first to run to her home’s door and pounded it with her little fists.

"Mommy... Mommy..."

Hearing the noise, Song Qingwei opened the door for her.

Duoduo immediately squeezed in, with Dou Dou following closely behind.

"Eh?" Duoduo exclaimed with wide eyes.

Somewhat nervously, she said, "This is my home."

Dou Dou: →_→

Seeing their reactions, Song Qingwei found it a bit amusing, wondering if they were afraid the home would be stolen.

She really guessed right, Duoduo was indeed a bit worried.

"I came to play at your house, and I am a rich person, so bring out all the delicious and fun things." Dou Dou stood with her hands on her hips, like a little bully.

Song Qingwei didn’t bother with them, and curiously glanced at Ding Simei and the others before asking Shen Siyuan, "Would you like to come in and sit?"

"No thanks, I have some other matters, I won’t disturb you," Shen Siyuan replied.

At this time, Ruan Hongzhuang had already opened the door.

Xiao Yue tried to pull Dou Dou back, but Shen Siyuan said, "Let her be, let her play with Duoduo."

Hearing this, Xiao Yue backed off.

Once inside, Ding Simei immediately noticed the huge balcony, and even with her wealthy background, she was still amazed at the sight of such a luxurious house. Mao Sanmei felt completely out of place, not knowing where to put herself.

Tang Tang struggled wanting to get down, then dashingly ran straight towards the balcony.

Mao Sanmei wanted to chase her but realized she hadn’t changed her shoes, and quickly stopped, anxiously uttering "Ah... ah..." continuously.

Fortunately, Shen Siyuan, who had entered the house first, had already changed his shoes and immediately walked towards Tang Tang.

Seeing Shen Siyuan go over, Mao Sanmei finally breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly gestured and bowed repeatedly, apologizing to Ruan Hongzhuang.

Because Tang Tang hadn’t changed her shoes, she ran straight out to the balcony.

Shen Siyuan no longer bothered with Ding Simei and Mao Sanmei, leaving everything else to Ruan Hongzhuang to handle.

"Hoo~ Hoo~ Hoo~"

Tang Tang tiptoed, clinging to the balcony rail, tilting her little head up, blowing wind towards the sky.

Then the wind arose from the sky, diving straight down, narrowing Shen Siyuan’s eyes as Tang Tang turned her head to look at them and let out a hearty laugh.

The wind swept through the railings, over the tree tops, towards the distant beach, across the sea surface, confronting the seabirds, tearing them in half then merging them back together, freely soaring in the sky.

They are free, and so is Tang Tang.

The wind carried her, crossing rivers and mountains, showing her the Mortal World, she was never lonely.

Shen Siyuan reached out to lift her higher, allowing her to stand taller and see further...

She stretched out her palm, seemingly trying to touch the seabirds in the distant sky, her mouth emitting an "oh oh" sound, the wind conveyed it to the whole world...

Except for Xiao Yue, whether it was Ding Simei, Mao Sanmei, Ruan Hongzhuang, or Jiang Taoshi, upon seeing this scene, an unusual sentiment suddenly surged in their hearts...

These two people, seemed to want to ride the wind, embracing the vast land and skies.

Apart from Ruan Hongzhuang, the others shook their heads, dismissing such a ridiculous thought.

However, they could confirm one thing, that at this moment, Shen Siyuan and Tang Tang had an indescribable harmony, like father and daughter, like siblings, and like kindred spirits, exceptionally carefree...

In that instant, Ruan Hongzhuang suddenly had the illusion of Shen Siyuan riding the wind away, and her heart immediately surged with an indescribable panic.

"Ruan Ruan, what’s wrong?" Jiang Taoshi asked with some confusion.

Ruan Hongzhuang shook her head, then told Jiang Taoshi, "Please take care of Sister Ding and Sister Xiao Mao for me."

Saying so, she walked straight towards Shen Siyuan.

Coming up next to Shen Siyuan without saying a word, she just held his hand.

Shen Siyuan turned around and seemed to understand the meaning in her eyes, smiling and asking, "Do you still remember ’Embrace the Wind and Sleep’?"

Ruan Hongzhuang immediately nodded, how could she forget when Shen Siyuan repeatedly emphasized it, she had been practicing it daily.

"Relax your body, and silently recite the mantra of ’Embrace the Wind and Sleep’," Shen Siyuan instructed.

Ruan Hongzhuang followed the instructions, closed her eyes, relaxed her body, and silently recited.

Tang Tang puffed her cheeks, and blew a few more times towards the sky.

A gentle wind brushed over their faces, lifting their clothes...
