Finally, when Shen Zhou had finished cooking, Ye Ya sat at the small table and ate with a small bowl in her arms.

She ate very quickly. Her cheeks were stuffed full. Shen Zhou was afraid that the child would choke, so she hurriedly poured a glass of water for her.

While she was eating, Shen Zhou contacted Ye Qinghe on WeChat.

[Shen Zhou: Your sister is with me.]

Shen Zhou's renamed Ye Qinghe as Yaya’s older brother on WeChat. After three or five minutes, Ye Qinghe replied.

[Yaya’s older brother (Ye Qinghe): Is Yaya okay?]

Shen Zhou glanced at Ye Ya as she ate, and sent a video call request. After connecting, Ye Qinghe's face appeared on the screen.

He was lying on the hospital bed. He had a handsome face yet an unhealthy paleness on his skin.

“Are you sick?" Shen Zhou rarely cared about his tablemate.

“I'm fine." He replied lightly.

Ye Qinghe had a bad heart since when he was born. It was common for him to be at the hospital. He had long been accustomed to this kind of life.

“Where's Yaya?”

Shen Zhou handed the phone to Ye Ya, “Talk to your brother."

Ye Ya was eating happily, but when he saw Ye Qinghe weak on the screen, her developed lacrimal glands were at work again.

“Brother, are you uncomfortable?" Ye Ya suddenly felt that the big white steamed buns in her hand no longer tastes good. “Brother, you wait. I will go to you now." She held back her tears and stuffed the steamed buns into her mouth, “Wait...wait until I’m done and I’ll go find you."

Ye Qinghe, who was in a depressed mood, smiled when he saw her like this, “Yaya, eat slowly, be careful not to choke."

Ye Ya drooled, but obediently slowed down the chewing speed.

Ye Qinghe stared at the camera, “The nanny came in the morning, and I saw Yaya's letter." He thought of the contents of the letter, and his eyebrows appeared even more gentle. "But it is very dangerous for you to sneak out alone. You can't do this in the future, Okay?"

Ye Ya flapped her eyelashes gently, stared at him, and whispered in a moment, "I wanted to find my mother..."

Ye Qinghe felt a sour sensation in his heart, and he didn't know how to tell her that their mother would never return to the world.

“Yaya can live in Brother Shen Zhou's house for now. I will find you when I get better. You have to listen to Brother Shen Zhou and stop running around." He exhorted, his tone full of anxiety.

Ye Ya didn't nod even after the screen went dark.

Shen Zhou retrieved the mobile phone and saw another message from Ye Qinghe.

[Yaya’s older brother (Ye Qinghe): My dad may send someone to pick up Ye Ya today. She is safe with you now. Sorry to trouble you Shen Zhou, but please take care of her. ]

After a while, Shen Zhou received a transfer record.

Three thousand yuan.

Shen Zhou frowned and looked at the few pieces of spam left on the table. In the end, he only received 300, and the rest were returned.

[Shen Zhou: Yaya can't eat much, so you don't have to give so much. ]

Ye Qinghe originally wanted to say that there were still you and Ranran, but after thinking about it, he finally gave up the thought.

“Brother Shen Zhou, I'm full." Ye Ya put down her chopsticks, took out a paper towel, wiped her mouth and fingers carefully, jumped off the chair, and began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.

Shen Zhou hurriedly sat up and took the small bowl in her hand, “Yaya, go play. Brother will wash the dishes."

“The teacher said that I should do my own things and should not let Brother wash them." The online teacher who taught human study said so. The teacher taught her: Humans like polite children and hard-working children, so she must be polite and hard-working, otherwise humans will dislike her.

Shen Zhou said, "But the sink is very high."

Ye Ya said, "I can step on the chair."

Unable to convince her, Shen Zhou moved a chair in front of the pool and stood up with her in his arms. Ye Ya lifted up her sleeves, squeezed a little detergent into the pool, and carefully washed up the dishes and chopsticks.

The little child was not familiar with adult works. Her every action was laborious and clumsy. Water stains were everywhere. Ye Ya raised her hand to wipe her face, but ended up dipping the foam on the tip of her nose. Looking at the water all over the floor and Ye Ya's clothes, Shen Zhou sighed secretly. Now there were more things to do afterwards.

After Ye Ya washed the bowl, Shen Zhou began to deal with the mess she left behind. Since the foam on the bowl was not rinsed clean, he flushed it again under the faucet.

Shen Zhou, who was taking care of the work at hand, did not notice the little girl who was secretly observing behind him.

“Brother Shen Zhou." Ye Ya gently pulled his sleeve.

“Hmm?"

“Am I causing you trouble?" She raised her little face, her eyes appeared cautious.

Shen Zhou was taken aback, and squatted down to look at her, "No, Yaya is doing a great job."

Ye Ya lowered her head, “I want to be a polite child."

Shen Zhou laughed with a puff, “Yaya is a polite child."

Ye Ya shook her head, “It's not polite to cause trouble." She wanted to help, and she wanted to be a hard-working child to help relieve Brother Shen Zhou's burden, but it seemed to make Brother Shen Zhou busier. This was to add to the trouble, not to be polite.
