He put the phone back under the pillow, turned to look at the bed next door, Ning Junyan still maintained a quiet sleeping position, his eyes were closed as if he had not woken up.

Chen Yuncheng lifted the quilt and got out of bed. The moment he stepped on the ground, he felt that his left ankle still hurt, but it didn't seem to be as swollen as last night.

He originally wanted to go to the bathroom, but just looking at Ning Junyan on the opposite bed, he suddenly felt that from this angle, when he slept with his eyes closed, it was very similar to when he was a child. They all slept together at that time. Sometimes when Chen Yuncheng woke up, he and Ning Junyan were face to face.

At that moment, Chen Yuncheng found some childhood warmth from his memory, he squatted down beside Ning Junyan's bed, tilted his head to look at his sleeping face, couldn't help laughing, and called him softly: " words?"

Ning Junyan didn't respond.

Chen Yuncheng felt that he was a little funny, stood up and planned to leave, at this time, the person on the bed suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist. He lowered his head and saw Ning Junyan lying on the bed, opening his eyes and looking at him.

"What did you call me just now?" Ning Junyan asked him.

Chen Yuncheng said, "Yanyan?" After speaking, he quickly explained, "I just suddenly remembered that I didn't know your name at that time, I always called you that."

"Well," Ning Junyan said, "call again."

Chen Yuncheng looked at him and didn't speak.

Ning Junyan was very persistent, "Call again."

Chen Yuncheng said softly, uncertainly, "Yanyan?"

Ning Junyan said, "Well, I'm here." Then he let go of Chen Yuncheng's hand and pulled up the quilt to cover half of his face.

They eat breakfast directly at the hotel.

Today, no matter if Zhou Yan and his parents can be found or not, Chen Yuncheng doesn't plan to stay, so he checked out of the room after breakfast, and the two of them drove out of the hotel.

It was almost ten o'clock in the morning when he returned to the community where Zhou Yan's parents lived. Chen Yuncheng went upstairs and knocked on the door with a sprained foot. There was still no response from the house, so he and Ning Junyan came out of the community door again.

There were a few chairs outside the gatekeeper's room. Chen Yuncheng spoke to the gatekeeper and asked him if he could sit for a while.

The uncle nodded generously.

Chen Yuncheng immediately said to Ning Junyan, "Sit down for a while."

Ning Junyan sat down on a chair, while Chen Yuncheng was standing by the doorman's window, chatting with the doorman.

He said they were waiting for the lady Li they were looking for yesterday.

The uncle of the doorman put his head on one hand, lay on the table by the window, and said, "I started to think that you are collecting debts."

Chen Yuncheng smiled and said, "Do I look like a debt collector?"

The uncle of the doorman said: "There is no regulation on what the debt collector must look like. It's hard to say whether you look like it or not. Anyway, I don't think the young man with you is very similar."

Chen Yuncheng glanced at Ning Junyan and said with a slight smile, "He really doesn't look like him, he's a doctor."

The uncle of the doorman clapped his hands, "Yes, I said that other people are so good-looking, so they can collect debts and become a star. It's good to be a doctor, and a doctor makes money."

Chen Yuncheng joked with him: "Then you think I'm not good enough?"

The uncle said: "I didn't say it, you are also good-looking, but you don't have his temperament."

"What kind of temperament?" Chen Yuncheng asked.

The uncle thought about it and said, "I can't tell."

Chen Yuncheng understood the meaning of Uncle Guard in his heart. He was used to everything from being lonely and poor since he was a child. He grew up at the bottom of the society, and naturally he didn't have some of Ning Junyan's temperament. No matter whether his face is good-looking or not, in the eyes of others, he looks like a gangster, and he will be regarded as a debt collector under such circumstances.

He was a little lost.

At this time, the uncle patted his shoulder, pointed to a woman who was walking along the street with a travel bag and said, "That's the sister Li you are looking for."

Chen Yuncheng raised his head and saw that the woman was in her forties or fifties, wearing a long down jacket with broken flowers, and her short hair was curled in small curls. Looking at her from a distance, she could indeed find some traces of Zhou Yan's resemblance to her face. .

"Wait for me," Chen Yuncheng said to Ning Junyan, he walked towards the woman, stopped in front of her, and said as gently as possible: "Hello, Auntie, my name is Chen Yuncheng, from Zhou Yan. friend."

The woman opened her eyes suddenly. The woman's surname was Li and her name was Li Yanping. She was indeed Zhou Yan's mother.

She was very vigilant about the appearance of Chen Yuncheng and Ning Junyan, and kept repeating: "Zhou Yan has not been back for a long time."

Ning Junyan stood beside him and didn't speak, Chen Yuncheng patiently said to her, "Have you been out of contact?"

Li Yanping shook her head, "He ran out when he was in his teens. If there is any connection, he didn't call back."

Chen Yuncheng said, "Has he come back to find you recently?"

"No, no," Li Yanping, carrying her bag, wanted to bypass them and continue walking towards the community, seemingly not wanting to continue the conversation.

Chen Yuncheng said to her, "Do you know that he has a child? The child is in the hospital now. I think he may come back to ask you for help."

Li Yanping stopped and said subconsciously, "I don't have any money either."

Chen Yuncheng suddenly felt sad, he looked at Li Yanping and didn't speak for a while.

Ning Junyan looked at Chen Yuncheng's profile silently, and then said to Li Yanping: "I don't need you to take the money, I just want to know if he has come back to find you. I know you are not at home recently, you can ask Zhou Yan's father if Haven't you seen him?"

Li Yanping looked embarrassed.

Chen Yuncheng said, "We will leave immediately if asked."

Li Yanping said: "He should be at home now, you come with me."

Chapter 30

Li Yanping asked Chen Yuncheng and Ning Junyan to follow her home. When walking in the community garden, she said, "My husband is not Zhou Yan's biological father."
