"Found it!" Ye Qingning took out a box from the bookshelf. It can be seen that the owner takes great care of it. The contents inside are sparkling and there is no trace of dust.
Without hesitation, she took the box to the door of Ye Lin's room and knocked on it.
There was no response from inside, but Ye Qingning didn't give up and knocked on the door again.
"Second brother, I'm Qingning, can you open the door? I have something for you."
Still no answer inside.
Ye Qingning frowned, holding the box unconsciously with his hand.
When Ye An and Ye Ke heard the noise, they also came up and what they saw was this scene.
"Sister, what did you get?"
"Important stuff."
"You want to go in?" Ye An asked.
"Do you have any idea?" Ye Qingning's eyes lit up.
"His balcony is side by side with mine. You can cross over from my balcony."
"Are you crazy? What if you fall?" Ye Ke retorted without thinking.
Ye An rolled his eyes, "Then wouldn't you find a ladder to set up and let her climb over?"
Ye Ke shrank his neck and curled his lips, "You are the only one who is smart."
Although the voice was small, it was still captured by Ye An. Ye An glanced at him, and the latter immediately looked away, not daring to refute.
He realized belatedly that his status in the family seemed to have declined recently.
But Ye Qingning couldn't care about that at the moment. She grabbed Ye An's arm, her eyes full of anxiety.
"Ye An, help me."
Ye An curled his lips and asked Ye Qingning to wait for her on the balcony of her room while he went to the storage room to carry out a ladder.
"It's so heavy, why didn't you call me?" Ye Ke ran over to take it, and Ye Qingning also hurriedly supported it, but Ye An disliked the two of them getting in the way and told them to stay away.
"Can you handle this with your small body that sits in front of the computer and types on the keyboard every day?"
Ye An's words were full of disdain, and Ye Ke was so angry that he grinned, but Ye Qingning hurriedly took his hand to comfort him.
Ye An didn't waste any time. He put the ladder up on the balcony and patted it after making sure it was stable.
"come over."
Ye Qingning walked over holding the box.
"Do you dare?" Ye Qingning looked down, swallowed, and silently took a step back.
"Dare." She said this with fear in her eyes and a firm tone.
Ye An sighed and patted her shoulder. "Don't look down, I'm here to hold you up so you won't fall."
Ye Qingning has rarely done anything out of the ordinary since she was a child, let alone such a difficult thing from the beginning. She had a straight face, a sad and solemn expression that said 'A strong man is gone and never comes back', and nodded towards Ye An.
Ye An lowered his head and concealed the smile on his lips.
"Shall I go up now?" Ye Qingning asked.
"Ye Ke, bring me the stool and my bag."
As soon as Ye An finished speaking, Ye Ke took it over. Ye Qingning put his backpack on his body and put the box in it to make sure it wouldn't fall down. He stepped on the chair and knelt on the ladder. Ye An and Ye Ke held down one side to fix the ladder.
"Sister, be careful."
"Don't look down."
"good."
Ye Qingning swallowed, looked forward, and carefully grabbed the pole and moved it step by step. Ye An and Ye Ke stared at her closely, not daring to speak. They were relieved when Ye Qingning arrived on the other side.
Ye Qingning squatted on the ground, his heart beating wildly, his face pale, and it took him a while to recover.
"OK?" Ye An gestured.
Ye Qingning nodded, Ye An received it, pulled Ye Ke out of the room.
"Why are you dragging me?" Outside the door, Ye Ke stared at Ye An dissatisfied.
"You must be a bit discerning." Ye An closed the door and went downstairs. Ye Ke made a face at her back, turned around and entered his room.
On Ye Lin's balcony, Ye Qingning, who had slowly come over, wanted to open the door, but found that the door was locked. The thick curtains were lowered, and Ye Qingning couldn't see what was going on inside. In desperation, Ye Qingning had no choice but to knock on the glass door.
There was no response, so Ye Qingning knocked again.
This time there was some movement inside, and Ye Qingning was overjoyed and stood up immediately. When Ye Lin opened the curtains, he saw Ye Qingning smiling and waving to him, and was stunned for a moment.
He opened the lock, his tone full of shock. "Ning Ning? How did you get here?"
Ye Qingning scratched his head and pointed to the ladder next to him.
This look almost gave Ye Lin a heart attack. He gritted his teeth, pulled Ye Qingning to sit on the chair, and looked left and right.
"Brother, I'm fine!"
"You've been with Ye An for a long time, and you've gained courage, haven't you!" Ye Lin angrily poked Ye Qingning's forehead, full of fear.
"How can we involve Ye An?" Ye Qingning subconsciously defended Ye An, but received a glare from Ye Lin.
Ye Qingning pouted, smiled flatteringly at him, lowered his head, took out the box from his bag, and stuffed it into Ye Lin's hand.
"What is this?" Ye Lin frowned.
"open to take a look."
Ye Lin glanced at Ye Qingning suspiciously, sat on the bed casually, and opened the box.
Ye Lin was stunned when he saw what was inside. He took out the gold medal inside and rubbed it with a little nostalgia. He looked at the box again and realized that there was still a group photo inside. They had taken it with a Polaroid, a small photo.
This was his first game, and it was also the first photo he took with Lip and the others. They were still very young at the time.
Ye Lin took out the photo and his eyes suddenly became very nostalgic. At that time, he was just a fledgling e-sports newcomer who got suspended because he got into trouble at school. Because he was bored, he started playing games, but he didn't expect that this would change his life.
As a talented player, his ranking rose quickly. Within a week, he was chatted privately by the club's manager. At that time, he was in a rebellious stage, but he was only 16 years old, and Ye Qingning was only in the first grade of junior high school.
Being suspended from school, he felt humiliated on the one hand, and boring on the other. In addition, he and Ye Shaohua had a small quarrel every day, and a big quarrel every three days, which made him extremely irritable.
【No matter what, as long as I can leave. 】With this feeling in mind, he accepted the invitation to join the club.
As expected, he encountered strong opposition from Ye Shaohua. He even said that if he dared to go, he would never set foot in the Ye family again.
Going to the club required parental consent, but Ye Shaohua couldn't do it, so he went to ask his mother. My mother has a simple and soft personality, and he is used to making her happy, so she followed his wishes and signed the consent form.
He was carrying his luggage and was about to set off, but Ye Shaohua discovered it at some point. He tore up the consent form in front of him and locked him in his house.
"Ye Shaohua, let me out! I tell you, you have the ability to lock me in there for the rest of your life and starve me to death." Ye Lin roared, but could do nothing but smash the decorations in the room.
There were bells and bells ringing inside, but Ye Shaohua didn't care. He had a dark face and held the key in his hand, "Little bastard, I can't cure you yet."
"Ye Lin, if you're not clear-headed, just sober up in your room and take a break from school? You can tell me! Do you want me to be laughed at when I go out? Your son only has a high school diploma, but he still doesn't do his job to play games?"
"Ye Shaohua, aren't you afraid of being laughed at if you lock your son in the room?"
Ye Lin's roar received no response because Ye Shaohua went downstairs. He was watching financial reports in the living room and deliberately turned on the TV loudly to cover up Ye Lin's voice.
Knowing that Ye Shaohua was determined not to let him go this time, Ye Lin covered himself with quilt and planned to sleep and think of a solution later. All his mobile phones and computers were taken away, and there was nothing else to do except sleep.
The messy room fell into an atmosphere of silence, but a gentle knock on the door rang, followed by a rustling sound, as if something was squeezed in through the crack in the door.
Ye Lin was a little impatient, but he also knew that it couldn't be Ye Shaohua. He rolled out of bed and saw the A4 paper stuffed through the crack in the door.
The slightly immature notes and the simple drawings of two little people in the lower right corner made Ye Lin laugh out loud and calm down his anxious heart.
【Brother, don’t worry, Ning Ning will find a way. 】
"Find a way, what can you, a little girl, do?" Ye Lin murmured, with a smile on his lips. He knocked on the door to show that he understood.
