Chapter 1224 Return the Bell

Watching Brother Jin walk into the kitchen, Su Xun lowered his eyes and looked at his open palms, on which lay a pair of silver bells.

The red ropes on the two bells were tied together into a bow.

He suddenly felt a little emotional and murmured in a low voice, "The child's sister left a bell for the child as a memory. Now, the child also left his own bell."

"The two bells are still there, but the two children are gone."

……

"Master Xiao."

He turned to look at Xiao Xiao, with some hesitation and hesitation between his eyebrows, "This pair of bells-"

“Is it returned to the children’s parents?”

"Or...put it directly on their graves?"

The reason he asked this was because he still had some resentment towards the child's parents... right?
Thinking that Dangdang was not only experiencing the pain of losing her sister, but was also being accused of false charges and suffering from the malice of people around her, including her biological parents, he felt sorry for the child.

The parents who should have protected their children turned a blind eye to their children's pain.

How could he feel at ease handing over his child’s last belongings to such parents?

But, they are still the children's parents after all.

They have the right to take back their children's belongings.

Moreover, "these bells were originally given to the children by their mother."

Su Xun touched the smooth surface of the bell with his fingers. It was no longer cold as it was at first, but warm instead. "It would be best if the parents of the child return the bell to them, right?"

"Will the two children be happier then?"

……

"Master Xiao."

He raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Xiao, "Sorry, I'm going to take up some of your time again."

"I have to go and return the bells to Dangdang's parents first."

"Ok."

Xiao Xiao looked at the bell in Su Xun's hand and said, "Those two children will be very happy."

"Ah."

The corners of Su Xun's mouth curled up slightly, "After all, they like this bell so much."

……

"How can there be no bells around the bells?"

……

"You're done eating now?"

Hearing Su Xun asking for the bill, Brother Jin, who had just walked out of the kitchen, was a little surprised, but then he understood a little, "You guys are in a hurry to go home."

He completed the task of collecting money and making change neatly. Just as he had said before, he gave Su Xun and his friend a 12% discount on their meal, saying it was for good luck.

Su Xun thanked him with a smile, and then asked Brother Jin about the location of Dangdang's home.

In the past few days, it was the child Dangdang who came here to look for him, and he had never been to the child's home.

Naturally, it is impossible to know the location of her home.

"Hey, are you going to Old Yan's house?"

Brother Jin shouted in surprise.

"Well, Dangdang left something with me, so I'll return it to her parents."

Su Xun's words made Brother Jin suddenly realize, "That child actually left something with you?"

"What a sloppy kid."

Brother Jin shook his head, his brows dimmed, and he muttered in a low voice, "He is also a very daring child."

If the child wasn't so daring, how could he dare to go into the dark forest alone in the middle of the night?

Moreover, that forest had just claimed her sister's life half a year ago.

Thinking of some bad comments, he shook his head.

As a child, are they being too harsh?
Moreover, the dead are the greatest, so it is better to forget those unfounded words.

……

"...I also want to go to Dangdang's grave to see the child."

Su Xun carefully put the bell into his pocket.

Brother Jin nodded in understanding, "I'll take you to Old Yan's house."

"Brother Jin, tell us the location-"

Su Xun was interrupted by Brother Jin's wave of his hand before he finished speaking. "That would be too much trouble." "I'll take you there. It's not that far away."

"Besides, with me following you, you can explain some things more clearly."

"Okay, let's go."

Brother Jin walked towards the door, "Aren't you guys in a hurry to get home?"

"…Sorry to bother you, Brother Jin."

Brother Jin’s reason made it impossible for Su Xun to refuse.

Indeed, if only he and Master Xiao went to the door.

Who knows how the child's family will be wary and suspicious of them.

It would take quite a while just to explain.

If Brother Jin follows them, then there will be no problem with their identities.

……

Brother Jin’s concerns are correct.

When Dangdang's parents heard that Su Xun was their little daughter's friend, their faces turned grim.

If it weren't for Brother Jin's intervention, Su Xun thought that he would probably have been turned away.

"Old Yan, you don't even believe what I say?"

Brother Jin frowned.

In fact, he was also a little dissatisfied with the attitude of Old Yan's family towards the child.

It’s okay for others.

It's your own child. Even if he or she has done something really wrong, there is no reason for a parent to ignore such a young child.

That's just a kid who doesn't understand anything.

Rather than an adult who can be responsible for his own words and deeds.

Sometimes when he saw the child's appearance, he felt a little bit sorry.

But what can he say about other people's family affairs?
As for other people's attitudes, he couldn't change them.

All he could do was sigh at the child's situation.

"Brother Su and Dangdang get along well."

"When Brother Su was staying at my hotel, Dangdang came to play with Brother Su every day."

"This time, Brother Su came all the way from Yanjing to return the things that Dangdang left behind."

"What's with your attitude of wanting to kick people out?"

"What could that child have left behind?"

The strict father looked a little impatient.

The young woman next to him gently touched the strict father with her arm. She was Dangdang's mother.

The woman's attitude was much better, with a polite smile on her face, "Old Yan means that children's toys are not worth much."

"Even if that child really left something behind, young man, if you don't mind, I'll give it to you."

"Why do you need to make this special trip?"

"I'm really troubling you."

Su Xun's hand, which had already reached into his pocket to wrap the bell, was a little stiff.

For a moment, he wanted to follow the other party's wishes and just turn around and leave.

But after thinking it over, he took his hand out of his pocket.

"Dangdang fell-"

He raised his hand in front of the Yan family and then flattened his palm and slowly spread his five fingers, "This is a pair of bells."

He observed the expressions of the Yan couple, and seeing their rather indifferent reactions, he couldn't help feeling disappointed and a little depressed.

"Dangdang attaches great importance to this pair of bells."

He continued, “I almost never leave my body.”

"It is said that it is a bell that I have worn since I was a child."

"I think she will be very worried if she loses the bells."

"what?"

The woman was somewhat confused by the man's words. She asked uncertainly, "Don't you know that Dangdang is no longer around?"
