Chapter 1 Running away from home


Chapter 1 Running away from home

"No, you really want to run away from home!?"

Lin Yan promptly lowered the volume of his earphones to avoid damaging his eardrums due to Qiu Yi's uncontrollable high-pitched sound due to too much shock.

She packed her backpack unhurriedly, zipped the lid and locked it in one go. After Qiu Yi on the other end of the phone finally recovered from the shock, she replied: "What, you don't welcome me to the capital? ”

"This is not a question of welcome or not..." As an old Jianghu (crossed out) uncle who has experienced the ups and downs of society, Qiu Yi felt that he still needed to help Lin Yan correct his thoughts.

So he began to persuade with earnest words, trying to make the other party give up the idea of ​​"running away from home":

"You said that you are a little kid who just graduated from high school. You don't understand anything. You can't play at home during the summer vacation, so you have to travel a thousand kilometers to the capital. You must know that the summer vacation after the college entrance examination is often the most lax and the weakest in safety awareness. I can't afford it if something happens for a while... Not to mention that people are evil now! Even if I have a conflict with my family, what can't be solved if I have to run away from home? …”

(500+ words omitted below)

"Tonight's flight, I will go to your store tomorrow, remember to save a good seat for me, hang up."

"Hey!? Wait——"

"Du-du-du..."

Lin Yan took off his headphones and breathed a sigh of relief.

She flexed her fingers and lifted the suitcase upright.

After more than a year of adaptation practice, my daily activities are completely unrestricted and I am no different from ordinary people.

In a few days, someone from the Lu family will come to discuss the engagement. Grandpa is really confused. He has to say that the Lin and Lu families are family friends. That kid Lu Xingye has a pure character and you were childhood playmates and childhood sweethearts... …

Mao Xian’s childhood sweetheart!

In my impression, when I was a child, I and him were obviously incompatible, right?

As we all know, if Lu Xingye and Lin Yan were allowed to stay in the same room, they would definitely fight.

Lu Xingye was that annoying guy. When he thought that he was the one he was going to be engaged to, Lin Yan immediately got angry reflexively.

But my father is not at home yet.

If you don’t leave now, wait until later.

Unexpectedly, she, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, would one day run away from her marriage.

As for the sinister nature of people's hearts and so on.

Lin Yan smiled.

She never cared.

Before opening the window, Lin Yan finally picked up a photo frame on the bedside table.

In the photo frame, a woman with hair as white as snow is smiling quietly. Even in a two-dimensional photo, her peach blossom eyes are infinitely gentle.

Passionate yet ruthless.

Mom, I have to say goodbye for a while.

Lin Yan said softly in his heart.

She put on her backpack, jumped out of the window, and used the strength of her hands to hold on to the window lattice.

Now her entire body was hanging in mid-air five stories high.

After visually checking the distance between each window lattice, Lin Yan released his hands, lowered his hands, and stepped on the next window lattice accurately with both feet.

Before she lost her balance, she jumped down again, grabbed the window lattice with her hands to buffer her speed, and repeated this action. She quickly and easily climbed down from the fifth floor along the wall under the moonlight.

In the end, Lin Yan landed lightly on the ground, releasing the last of his strength with a roll, as agile and graceful as a ghost.

The sound of her landing was very soft and did not disturb anyone in the house, but a small dog sleeping under the fence was attracted by the movement.

The police dog's excellent reflexes were immediately activated, and it quickly arrived at the scene of the crime in an attempt to stop a guy who was trying to escape overnight.

Even though its left hind leg had been injured, it was still so well hidden that Lin Yan didn't notice its approach until he turned around——

"Xiaotian, why are you running here!"

After discovering that it was the owner, the tall and mighty Xiao Tian immediately squatted down and let out a confused hum.

Obviously it couldn't understand Lin Yan's abnormal behavior tonight.

"Shh!" Lin Yan quickly lowered his voice, and she squatted down, "Don't make a sound, Xiaotian, just stand there and don't move."

Xiaotian stuck out his tongue obediently.

Lin Yan quickly got up and ran away while it wasn't paying attention. But dogs' reaction is obviously much faster than that of humans.

There was resistance at my feet.

really.

Lin Yan lowered his head helplessly, "Relax and obey~"

Ah, it would be troublesome if grandpa was alerted.

No, my escape plan must not be interrupted!

She emerges with wisdom in her haste:

"Xiaotian, stand at attention!"

Due to the good quality in the bones of police dogs, such instructions will be absolutely obeyed.

So our little princess immediately took the opportunity to sprint to the door at a speed of 100 meters, climbed over the wall neatly, and stepped on the skateboard that had been prepared.

Xiaotian, who stayed where he was and stood at attention: "..."

The summer night wind blew Lin Yan's long hair. She put on a baseball cap and skated through the quiet old streets of Chang'an.

The corners of her mouth curved, and the exposed fangs looked a bit cunning.

The escape plan officially begins.

Target, Beijing!

……

The next day, Lin Chen had just finished attending an exhibition and booked a flight to the capital.

At noon, the plane landed.

Lu family villa.

"You are so fast. I just received your message in the morning, and you came here at noon." Lu Zhizhou added a new cup of tea to the man in front of him.

"I know you don't usually drink, so this is a rare occasion, so I specially left the golden buds for you."

Lin Chen took it with a smile.

"Starfall's VR engine technology has just been upgraded, and it will be busy for a while again recently."

"It just so happens that Xiao Yan is causing trouble for me again at this time." He shook his head helplessly, "Running away from home, this little brat really deserves her."

"This is not quite what you were like back then." Lu Zhizhou also smiled.

"Don't make fun of me." Thinking of how young he was, he couldn't help laughing.

"Actually, that girl knows in her heart that if she disagrees with the engagement, her grandfather will naturally respect her opinion. He is just trying to find an excuse to go out and have fun"

He put down the teacup and sighed, "During this period, Lin Yan will have to trouble you to take care of me."

"Don't worry, I've already made an arrangement with Chen Yu. These two children can be considered childhood playmates. We haven't seen each other for thirteen years, and we just got to know each other well again."

Lu Zhizhou said, "By the way, I heard that you will stay in the capital for a while this time. How about it, have you found that thing?"

"We have some clues." Lin Chen nodded, "But we are still waiting and watching. After all, Ke Yue's incident back then was too high-profile to be easy to alert."

"That's right." Lu Zhizhou expressed his approval, and then sighed, "After you retired, you could have spent the rest of your life peacefully, but you were forced to reappear in the media's sight. Even the Lin family was affected. affected.”

"It doesn't matter." Lin Chen didn't care, his eyes were still warm and clear, "In a society where interests are paramount, you still have to be a little snobbish to better protect your family."

He raised his eyes and said, "You and I both have a deep understanding of this."

Lu Zhizhou was silent.

Yes, thirteen years have passed since that accident.

"Right now, all I want is that Lin Yan can grow up safely until he can stand alone."

Perhaps as a father, the happiest thing in his life is to watch his daughter smile in front of him and watch her grow up day by day.

Look at the shadow of that person in her eyebrows.

Ke Yue, I will take good care of our daughter.
