Chapter 839: Holding an umbrella for Mimi



"No need, we applied for fund assistance for the cost of his operation. Then, we posted his condition to our platform, and many kind-hearted netizens also donated part of it, which is enough to offset it. However, after you take it back, you have to Take more videos of him and send them to us to let us know how he is doing, and we will also send them to the platform to let everyone know how he is doing. Is this okay?" This was his only request.

"Of course it's no problem. Thank you very much. Then I'd better pay out the two thousand dollars..." The girl took out a dozen hundred-dollar bills from her pocket: "Here are one thousand and one dollars in cash, and I'll send the rest to WeChat change……"

"No, there is no need for the surgery fee. You can use the money to buy some cat food and necessary supplies for Mimi at the front desk. It will be needed in the future. It is still very weak and needs to supplement its nutrition..."

After hearing this, the girl was stunned for a while, then walked out happily, completed the formalities at the front desk, and when she was about to go back, she brought the little guy to Lu Jingxing to see before she left with satisfaction.

Xiao Liu walked in: "Can she raise it well with her conditions? Master..."

Lu Jingxing didn't even raise his head: "Yes, you can raise someone with love..."

Xiao Liu touched his head and walked out muttering.

When school was about to end, it started to rain. Lu Jingxing held an umbrella and went to pick up Lu Chen and Lu Xi.

He walked to the entrance of the alley entering the school and saw the brother and sister walking out holding an umbrella.

Lu Jingxing felt a little strange.

Seeing the two people approaching, Lu Jingxing asked, "Lu Chen, where is your umbrella?"

"Brother, we just saw a cat sleeping in the frame in front of a bicycle in the carport. Brother held his umbrella for Mimi..." said Lu Xi, pointing to the carport not far away.

The carport belongs to the community next to the school, because there are many college students living nearby, and most of them like to ride bicycles, so the area against the wall is the parking area.

Most of the stray cats in this area have been sterilized, many of which were done by Lu Jingxing and others. However, the stray cats after sterilization still returned here, which is required by the community.

The carport didn't have a roof, but there were a lot of cars parked, and they were quite neat.

"Is that so? If you hold an umbrella for it, won't it run away?" Lu Jingxing asked in surprise. He didn't think there was anything wrong with the decision of the two brothers and sisters.

"It doesn't run away. It likes to sleep in that place the most. I once heard a young lady say that the bicycle belonged to her, but every time she came out she saw the cat sleeping in it, so she later I bought a new car and gave that one to the kitten..." Lu Xi gave her umbrella to Lu Chen and jumped under Lu Jingxing's umbrella.

"Brother, do you want to go take a look at it? It's not wet. I covered it just after it started raining..." Lu Chen raised the umbrella as high as Lu Jingxing and asked Lu Jingxing with his head tilted.

"You haven't disturbed it, so I won't disturb it either. Let's go back. Dinner is about to begin..." There was no wind at that location, so Lu Jingxing wasn't worried that the umbrella would be blown away by the wind. Looking at it from a distance, , Lu Chen’s umbrella with a cartoon pattern was placed on top of the bicycle. There was a cat underneath. The picture was quite friendly.

The two brothers and sister were very happy to see that their own initiative was not criticized by their brother.

After walking for a while, Lu Jingxing said, "Why did you come out on your own? Didn't you say you have to wait for me to pick you up before you can leave the school?" He said belatedly, and after finishing speaking, he looked serious. This was a very Serious question.

The two siblings looked at each other and finally felt guilty: "I'm sorry, brother, we will never leave school early again. Today we came out with Wu Xizheng's mother. We saw it was raining, so we wanted to go back by ourselves. From now on we It won't happen anymore..." The two apologized very quickly.

Lu Jingxing felt a little scared after thinking about it. It seemed that he still didn't explain enough. He pretended to be angry and said, "Next time this happens again, I will punish you by not eating KFC..."

The brother and sister stuck out their tongues: "I promise I'll never do it again..."

Seeing that the two of them seemed to have realized their mistake, Lu Jingxing felt a little more comfortable, and he quickly returned to the store with the two of them.

Lu Jingxing resumed his life of picking up and dropping off his younger brothers and sisters. After he got home and took them to wash up in the evening, his aunt called him.

"Xiao Jing, have Chenchen and Xixi slept?" My aunt also called after putting Xiaobao to bed.

"They just went to bed, what's wrong, aunt?" Lu Jingxing was a little surprised to receive a call from his aunt at this point.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just asking, and then I have something to discuss with you..." the aunt said in a relaxed tone.

"Tell me, what's the matter..." Lu Jingxing was about to take a shower, but when he heard his aunt say that he had something to discuss, he sat down on the sofa, not knowing what her aunt was going to say.

"Well, I discussed it with my uncle. You have several stores now. There are already a lot of things in the store. And then, there is such a big paradise. You also have to watch how Xiaochen and Xiaoxi interact. You don't worry about showing it to outsiders, and we don't worry either. They finish school early and you are always too busy. I'll discuss it with your uncle. You'd better send them here to me on Saturday. On Sundays, if you have time, you can take care of them. On weekdays, if you miss them, or when you really have nothing to do, you can pick them up..." Auntie said for several minutes.

Lu Jingxing listened quietly without interrupting his aunt. When he heard his aunt stop, he continued, "But you have to take care of Xiaobao. They are naughty at this time. I am afraid..."

"Children, we are a family and don't say two things. Besides, they are very obedient now. You are in the rising period of your career now. If we don't help you, who will? Last year, Xiaobao was still young and I had a baby. It was indeed inconvenient to take care of them, but now it is different. Xiaobao can let go. I have to get up early every morning and take Xiaobao back with me in the afternoon. Don't worry..." The aunt analyzed the situation with him.

Last year, there was a kind of lunch care training institution next to the school, but since the second half of last year, the Education Bureau has banned all of them. Now children can take a nap at school at noon, but after school, there is no such after-school tutoring institution next to the school. Lu Jingxing needs to pick them up on time every day.

In fact, he was indeed distressed.

Because sometimes his surgery time is not so accurate, he can't leave in the middle of an operation to pick up his brothers and sisters. He is not at ease to let others pick him up, and he is even more worried if he lets them go back by themselves.

Aunt and uncle should also know this, so they raised this question.

"But this will make you too hard..." Lu Jingxing felt that this was really too difficult for his aunt.

"Silly child, no, we don't feel hard, they can help me take care of Xiaobao sometimes when they come back, Xiaobao likes them very much, as for their homework, my uncle and I can guide them, at least, we have no problem guiding elementary school homework, after all, we are all in college, right? I am not ready to go out to work at present, at least I will be at home before Xiaobao goes to elementary school..." Aunt really loves her nephews and nieces, and knows Lu Jingxing's difficulties.

"Xiao Jing, don't worry about it. I usually get off work early, so I can help pick you up and send you off in the morning. So don't worry. We are all family, so let's not say such polite words..." Uncle loves his wife and his family, and he also loves his children.

Seeing that it has come to this, Lu Jingxing can't insist on it, after all, his difficulties are indeed in front of him.

"Then how about this, aunt, uncle, don't refuse, I have to pay for hiring people, so let me do my best, I will pay aunt, and I will be responsible for insurance and other things, how about this, otherwise I will feel bad..." Lu Jingxing thought, if so, it can be regarded as helping aunt and others to bear some family expenses, so that uncle will not be too hard to earn money alone.

"Xiao Jing, what are you talking about..." Uncle was about to refuse.

"Uncle, I'm sincere too. I know you're doing this for my own good. It costs money to hire someone. Besides, I'm really worried. I'm not even sure if someone from my store picks me up. But you and my aunt said you'd help pick me up, and I'm very grateful. If you don't even agree to this, I'll have to pick you up myself..." He knew that only in this way would my aunt and uncle reluctantly accept it.

My aunt and uncle looked at each other and nodded helplessly: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, kid..."

Lu Jingxing then relaxed and said with a smile: "Then I'll talk to them tomorrow and pack their things and send them over this Sunday..."

"Okay, we have everything ready here, and the room is ready too, so just come directly, or you can come to dinner on Sunday..."

Tomorrow is Friday, and it will be fine starting next week.

After discussing it, the few of them hung up the phone.

In fact, Lu Jingxing was relieved.

Although he originally planned to return to Longan because of Lu Chen and Lu Xi, and he really wanted to take good care of them, but now the business has grown so big that he has to pick them up and drop them off every day, he sometimes feels a little overwhelmed.

The two little ones are still young, and sometimes he has to go out at night. He is not at ease leaving them at home, but in today's society, he is even more worried about asking someone to take care of the two siblings. It is said that you can know a person's face but not his heart. If you don't know his roots and ins and outs, how can he feel at ease?

Now that his aunt and uncle have proposed it, he naturally thinks it is the most appropriate.

When he first returned to Longan, he was embarrassed to leave the two siblings to his aunt and uncle because he had no money. Now that his pockets are more abundant, he can give his aunt and uncle some subsidies, even if he helps them hire a nanny. He will feel more at ease when the two children are with his aunt.
