Ji Ningyi’s task had been completed. He was holding a box in his arms. Xu Weiqing was standing beside him, bending down and talking to him with a smile, looking completely gentle and generous.
Ji Ningyi frowned, took half a step back, and looked away slightly.
“Ningyi.”
“Brother!”
When two voices sounded, Ji Ningyi turned his head and saw Si Tian and Ji Zhile standing outside. His eyes suddenly lit up. He didn’t care to say goodbye to the others and ran straight toward them.
Ji Zhile grabbed his hand and whispered, “Brother, I brought Mom to save you.”
Ji Ningyi’s eyes were slightly red, but he still said to Si Tian, “Mom, I’m fine.”
Seeing his appearance, Si Tian felt as if something had stabbed her heart and said to the staff: “Ningyi has completed the mission, right? I’ll take him back first.”
Xu Weiqing looked at the backs of the three of them leaving with joy in her eyes.
She wished that Si Tian and these two children would make more mistakes so that her camera wouldn’t be covered up.
Si Tian took her two children home. Although Ningyi comforted her and said that he was fine, Si Tian knew that this also had a big impact on him.
Ji Ningyi held the box in his arms and leaned against Si Tian. Si Tian reached out and hugged him. His body trembled slightly, then he recognized her breath and leaned against her softly. His voice was low and full of nostalgia: “Mom.”
Si Tian patted his back gently and comforted him softly: “It’s okay, Ningyi, Mom is here to pick you up.”
Ji Ningyi nodded, leaning his head on her body: “I know Mom will come.”
“Mom, I protected Zhile.”
Si Tian felt a pang in his heart: “Did Ningyi protect himself?”
Ji Ningyi hesitated for a moment before replying: “Mom, I’m not injured.”
After Zhile left, they put together the puzzle and handed it to the last taskmaster. They got a box containing the cultural specialties of Lingquan Town.
Xu Weiqing said that the treasure was given to them. Ji Ningyi originally didn’t want it. He didn’t want Xu Weiqing’s things, but then he thought about it. He and Zhile got it through their hard work. He wanted to take it back and share it with Zhile.
Under the close-up camera, Xu Weiqing played the role of a gentle auntie. She didn’t do anything or say anything that shouldn’t be said to Ji Ningyi.
He wasn’t injured at all, but his mind always recalled Zhile’s words, as well as his own many strange speculations in his mind, which made him tremble with fear, like a frightened bird.
But he was no longer afraid when he saw his mother. The safest place in the world was next to his mother.
Ji Zhile reached out and held Ji Ningyi’s hand. He was a little sad now: “Brother, when I grow up, I will also protect you.”
He felt that he was too young and couldn’t do anything, but he would grow up very quickly and reach an age where he was not afraid of anything.
Ji Ningyi smiled and said, “Okay, I will wait until Zhile grows up.”
Although Ji Ningyi felt that when Zhile grew up, he would also be an adult, so he would no longer need anyone to protect him.
The car stopped in front of the villa. Si Tian got out of the car with two children, holding one in each hand.
It was the two children who first noticed the figure standing not far away, and they immediately shouted in unison—
“Dad!”
Si Tian was stunned for a moment and looked up. Ji Jiangzhou was wearing a simple shirt and trousers, clean and bright, standing under the tree outside the door, with the sunlight scattered.
He came toward them.
