Chapter 191
her voice soft as a mosquito's whine, audible only to Huo Mingzheng."Let me go..."Ho Mingzheng leaned down and kissed her parted lips. He glanced up carelessly, the moment the elevator door closed re...She crouched on the ground, holding Xiaoxing in one hand and gently pushing away Jilin's hand that was playing with Xiaoxing's little tuft of hair on his head. She smoothed out the frizzy baby hairs.
Ji Lin watched the scene with appreciation and suddenly exclaimed, "The more I look, the more I feel that Xiaoxing and you look alike."
Have you ever heard a wise saying
"Expand on that," Ji Lin raised an eyebrow.
Fu Yan held Xiao Xing close, their faces pressed together, stifling laughter. "Beauty is a shared language," she whispered. "They say beauty is uniform and ugliness is diverse – we three are a perfect example."
Ji Lin reacted for three seconds, then scoffed: "Who did you say was ugly"
"I look like Xiaoxing, of course I'm beautiful," Fu Yan said with a smug expression, then turned to Xiaoxing and asked softly, "Right"
Xiao Xing nodded forcefully, "Yes!"
Ji Lin sneered, "Little thing, you were just praising me for being handsome"
"Cool!" Xiaoxing said confidently, but her eyes darted around, and she furrowed her brow in distress, then changed her mind. "No, that's not right."
"Huh" Ji Lin feigned anger.
Xiaoxing wasn't afraid of him at all. She pointed to the dormitory building not far away and said in a milky voice, "That uncle is even more handsome!"
Ji Lin and Fu Yan followed the direction she pointed. They saw the headmaster and several teachers from the orphanage leading Huo Mingzheng and Li Qin out of the reception room and towards the dormitory building.
"Mr. Huo, Miss Li, this is where the children live."
The dean opened a door, and the room was painted in shades of pink. A lilac wind chime hung by the window, and each small bed was a pale blue with railings around it to prevent children from rolling out while they slept.
The headmaster explained: "This is the room for younger children. There are teachers who take turns on duty at night to look after them."
Li Qin nodded and slowly walked past each small bed. Each bed had a child's photo and nameplate at the foot, and each child was assigned to sleep in a specific bed.
When she reached the bed in the middle, Li Qin stopped her steps and asked, “Are these blankets warm enough”
"That's enough," the director walked over and stood by Xiaoxing's bedside, saying, "There is heating in the house, and the thickness of this quilt is completely enough."
Li Qin nodded, and she turned her head to motion Cao Fang to bring over the things she bought.
The bag was filled with fluffy dolls.
Li Qin immediately took out a doll from her bag. The first bed had a white teddy bear, the middle bed had a little rabbit, and the third bed had a panda.
"Miss Li is so kind, the children will be very happy to see the presents when they come back."
Li Qin smiled faintly, "What I did is insignificant. It's just that Azheng has a kind heart."
A person walked out of the dormitory. The cheerful laughter of children could be heard from the playground. Laughter is the most touching, especially the innocent laughter of children, which is particularly healing.
A group of people unconsciously looked in that direction.
The director smiled and said, “Miss Fu has come to see the children again.”
Li Qin also saw Fu Yan. She was playing games with the children. Ji Lin acted as an eagle, and she acted as a mother hen, protecting a group of excited 'chicks' behind her.
They were having a blast.
"Does Dean Feng know Fu Yan" She asked without looking back, her gaze falling on the group of people laughing and chatting.
The director explained, "Miss Fu often comes."
"How often do you come"
"Yes. Ms. Fu often comes to the orphanage to play games with the children, cooks delicious food for them, and especially takes care of girls in their adolescence. The children are very fond of her and call her 'Sister Yan Yan'."
The sunlight was blocked by the dormitory building, casting a shadow over the area.
There wasn't a glimmer of light in Li Qin's eyes.
She smiled faintly, "Is that so."ythmic heartbeat amplified.A child's heart beats.Ho Mingzheng's eyes flickered slightly.He looked down at Fu Yan, his eyes taking in her tear-rimmed gaze and the subtle sigh of relief she let out.When...
