Shajin turned his head expressionlessly and stared at Cheng Che, "Have you already set your sights on our cornerstone?"
"Is it not possible? You won't lose out by exchanging a whole piece for a small piece." Cheng Che spread his hands.
Shajin thought for a moment and asked doubtfully, "You have been holding those amber bricks for so long, haven't they... changed their form?"
Is Cheng Che's will so unsteady?
"No." Cheng Che shook his head honestly, "That's why I want to change it. I feel that the cornerstone in your hands is unique."
I want to collect it even more!
Gold Dust: ...
Suddenly I want to give Diamond a report.
Let’s say Pinocchio met a crow by chance. Not only did it bang its amber at him, but it also did him a big favor. Now he really wants to steal the cornerstones of his colleagues and trade them.
Alas, it seems that Sha Jin’s will on this matter is not very firm.
It’s all Cheng Che’s fault!

[Transaction: Take Kakavasa to experience childhood life.]
"Ding--"
There was a slight sound, and the alarm clock on the bedside table trembled slightly, and time skipped to the hour.
Cheng Che curled up in the familiar bed, turned over, and quickly opened his eyes the next moment.
The sleepiness quickly dissipated, and Cheng Che looked at his small hands and fell into deep thought.
He...wasn't he following the train to explore? How could he be rejuvenated?
After a moment, Cheng Che sat up from the bed and looked around his bedroom carefully.
All the furniture was dark wood, with a large bed in the center of the room. The pillars at the four corners reflected the light of the night lamp. Heavy curtains were hung to block out the sunlight, and only the wind from the air-conditioning outlet blew a layer of gauze on the curtains.
Dark grey curtains, dark grey sheets and quilt covers, a floor-to-ceiling bookcase on the other side of the bedroom, and neatly arranged books on the desk.
Cheng Che was stunned for a moment, jumped out of bed, put on his pajamas, and walked downstairs in slippers.
It doesn’t look like a simulated universe, nor does it look like a Qiongguan formation. It’s... a memory?
"woke up?"
A young man who looked young was sitting on the sofa, flipping through some documents in his hands. His shirt was torn loosely, with only a piece of white skin exposed at his collarbone.
"Why are you here?" Cheng Che was slightly startled. He went to the kitchen to get a glass of water and came over. He looked at the date on the document before looking up at his brother in front of him. "Where's my mom?"
"My aunt hasn't come back from her business trip yet. Do you miss your mother?" The man lowered his eyes and reached out to rub Cheng Che's head. "I also have work to deal with later. Will I pick you up after I finish work in the evening?"
Cheng Che finished a glass of water and placed it on the coffee table. He squatted beside the sofa and rubbed his head on the man's knees. He closed his eyes and whispered, "Brother, what are we going to do tonight..."
"Charity party, I'll take you there." Tang Muqing moved his eyes back to the document, read two lines and signed his name before continuing, "Can your brother Su come over and stay with you later? He has a paper to write today, so be good and don't cause any trouble."
"I've always been very good..." Cheng Che nudged his head into the other's arms and couldn't help frowning, "You changed your perfume again, it doesn't smell good."
"Okay, I'll change it back later." Tang Muching responded. Just as he was about to say something, he heard a slight sound coming from the courtyard, followed by the sound of a young man mumbling in an unhappy tone.
"Who are you?"
"Whose child is missing?"
"Where's the bodyguard? Where's the babysitter?"
A moment later, a young man with short black hair came over with a frown on his brow, holding a thin little boy in his hands. His light blond hair hung down, his clothes were tattered, and his eyes were shining as if he was wearing colored contact lenses.
"Looks like a foreign child?" Su Ming muttered, throwing the child into the arms of the nanny who had prepared a blanket. "Clean up and call the police."
Cheng Che: ...
Cheng Che raised his head and met Sha Jin's confused and shocked eyes.
“Um…” Cheng Che quietly raised his hand. Although he was not confident, he was still confident of his brothers’ love. “A friend I picked up.”
Tang Muching finally turned his eyes away from his work, staring at Cheng Che with his calm light brown eyes. After a while, he sneered, "Are you sure?"
"I'm sure." Cheng Che nodded, and after careful consideration, he spoke, "A homeless child with an illegal household registration, can I raise him?"
Gold Dust: ...
Or let him wander?
These two strangers made him feel a little strange, a hidden sense of danger.
Tang Muching narrowed his eyes. Although he was smiling, his eyes looked cold and his tone was chilly.
He glanced critically at the child who was held in the nanny's arms, and after a while he raised his hand, "Just raise him. A wealthy family won't kill me."
"Obviously he's eating my dad..." Cheng Che muttered, raised his head to look at his brother but still lowered his head, "Can I raise him?"
"Raise him, raise him." Su Ming, who had just returned from washing his hands and changing his clothes, glared at Tang Muching and rubbed Cheng Che's head. "Raising a child is not a big deal. Why are you scaring him?"
Tang Muqing:...
"Which eye of yours saw me threatening you? He just relied on my love for him to make demands unscrupulously..." Tang Muching packed up his work documents, stuffed them into his bag and handed them to the driver. He then turned around and glanced at Cheng Che, his critical eyes sweeping over the gold dust, "Wash yourself quickly, your face is too dirty to look at."
As he spoke, Tang Muqing put on his coat, walked outside, and whispered to the assistant who followed him, "Check the surveillance and find out the identity. If there is a family, send the child back. If not...no, go and complete the adoption procedures. Get the household registration, school registration, and physical examination all done. Oh, and have someone buy two sets of clothes and send them over. If you are sure he can be kept, clear out a bedroom and renovate it."
It’s so annoying. There are no adults at home, just a bunch of little boys. Do we still need to raise children in this situation?
Do they know who is raising the children in this family?
The assistant raised his eyes and glanced, and whispered, "Master and Madam Cheng..."
"How dare my uncle and aunt have any objections? Isn't this kid our little ancestor..." Tang Muqing sighed helplessly, and after getting in the car, he whispered: "After checking clearly, notify the old people. At least there is a new child."
"But..." The assistant paused, "I'm not sure if he has any family members."
"Oh, yes." Tang Muqing nodded thoughtfully, his eyes sweeping across the villa nearby, "Let's check it out. Once we find out clearly... we can discuss it with his family and ask them to let their children come home to be Cheche's playmates. I only have one little brother like him, how can I make him unhappy?"
assistant:……
"The others are not considered brothers?" The assistant thought about the young masters and young ladies of the Cheng family, the young masters and young ladies of the Su family, and Tang Muching's own brothers and sisters who were living outside, and was a little speechless for a moment.
"They are all debt collectors." Tang Muqing sighed heavily and raised his eyebrows, "Why? Are you asking so many questions and planning to usurp the throne?"
The assistant lowered his eyes and said nothing. He quickly closed the car door to block the boss's sight and went around to sit in the front row.
inside the house.
Cheng Che looked up at Su Ming, "Will he be angry? I brought a child home without telling him, and he...he always gets angry when I change the sheets."
The desire for control is very strong, and it’s not the kind of control that makes you lose your temper, but the kind of control that makes you look cold and sarcastic.
"No way, you know he has a habit of nurturing children. He likes to catch a poor child and raise him to be fat and white. He has raised all the children younger than him in this family." Su Ming glanced out the window and patted Cheng Che on the head. "Take your little friend upstairs to wash up and rest. I'll ask Auntie to prepare the meal."
Cheng Che responded and then turned his gaze to the gold sand that was held in the arms of the nanny.
He looked at it and suddenly smiled, "Eh? Let's go, friend."
Gold Dust: ...
In fact, he could go back to being a company executive, and he wouldn't have to become a child and be raised by others.
Sha Jin sighed heavily and followed Cheng Che, quietly looking around.
It's a little simpler than his previous extravagant life, but very tasteful.
The solid wood furniture is neatly arranged, and there are no expensive ornaments. The porcelain vase on the table looks particularly elegant, and there are suitable flowers in it to match the environment.
"Call me brother." Cheng Che measured Sha Jin's height and pointed at Su Ming next to him, "My cousin, and also my guardian."
Shajin looked up and said, "Brother."
"Go ahead." Su Ming didn't have the slightest sense of greeting guests. He sat down on the carpet skillfully, pulled over the computer and started typing, "When the meal is ready, I'll ask Auntie to call you."
Cheng Che patted the dazed Sha Jin, grabbed his wrist and went upstairs, "Let's go, let's go!"
Sha Jin followed Cheng Che silently, and after closing the bedroom door, he lowered his voice and asked, "What's going on?!"
"Who knows? Maybe God heard my thoughts of having fun, but..." Cheng Che pushed open the bathroom door and squatted beside the bathtub to adjust the water temperature. Then he looked back at the gold sand. "But it's good too. I haven't seen them for a long time."
Sha Jin was stunned for a moment, then asked in confusion: "Do your family members spoil you so much? Do you buy things just because your kids ask you to? Yes..."
Shajin couldn't help but touch his neck and frowned, "Slave?"
Cheng Che: ...
Cheng Che was speechless for a moment, and looked at Shajin solemnly, "How could you have such a dangerous idea?"
In the confused eyes of Shajin, Cheng Che's eyes looked particularly serious, "Human trafficking is illegal! This is a society ruled by law! Gambling is also illegal!"
Gold Dust: ...
Oh, that's how it is.
Then he is the gold dust... an outlaw?
"It will take some time." Cheng Che looked at the water temperature and flow rate, stood up and walked towards the bedroom, not caring, "Don't be nervous, I am the boss of my own house."
Shajin remained silent for a while, but couldn't help but ask, "Are you showing off?"
"No, I just want to say that although I'm the boss, you still have to follow the arrangements for classes." Cheng Che lay down on the bed, patted the empty space next to him, and recalled carefully, "In half an hour, an aunt will come up to bring you porridge or dessert to fill your stomach. After eating, you will be taken to the hospital for a physical examination, and then to the barber shop to trim your hair, and buy clothes and shoes on the way, and then take ID photos. When you go home, the room will be cleaned up, and you will have a nap after lunch. In the afternoon, my brother will be free and come back to chat with you. Be careful not to let him find out your little secrets, because at this time your background will be found out..."
"Tonight... tonight we are going to attend an event. If I'm sure I'll introduce you to you, and if I'm not sure I'll just say you're my playmate." Cheng Che lay on the bed, pressing a doll under his head. "Then congratulations, you've started a miserable study life. Everything will be planned for you from the moment you open your eyes to the moment you close them, and you'll have to listen to the nutritionist about what to eat."
Shajin was slightly startled, "Is this how rich people raise their children?"
"No, I guessed." Cheng Che turned over and tucked himself into the quilt. "My brother's car has already arranged for you before it leaves the community. Even if you are someone else's child, he will help with the formalities if I want to play with you."
Shajin nodded, took a look at the tattered clothes he was wearing, and couldn't help frowning, "I haven't been so embarrassed for a long time..."
Weird.
It is clearly a scene that can bring back memories of childhood, but unusually there is not much reminiscence, but more curiosity.
"Hmm..." Cheng Che turned his head to look at Sha Jin. After hearing the sound of water in the bathroom, he got out of bed and quickly took out a bath towel and some clothes from the cloakroom and stuffed them in. "Go ahead, wash up and have dinner."
He looked back at Shajin again and said, "You were quite cute when you were little. You were skinny but had baby fat."
Gold Dust: ...
