336th Starlight Welfare Home
"It's a bit windy today, don't catch a cold."
Seeing that he seemed to be in a good mood, Bai Yisha smiled and nodded. After getting on the motorcycle, she naturally put her arm around his waist and turned her head to ask, "Who is that person named Deng Rui just now?"
When this person was mentioned, Lu Mingxing's eyes turned slightly cold.
He started the motorcycle, his thin lips slightly pursed, and after a while he said, "Do you remember Liang Feiyu? He was the captain of the OVO team. Deng Rui was the vice captain of OVO. Since Liang Feiyu left, Deng Rui has been the current captain."
Bai Yisha grinned in disgust for a moment: "No wonder I hated him the moment I saw him."
It turned out to be rat droppings.
Lu Mingxing drove intently, a dark glint in his bright eyes. Suddenly remembering something, he said to Bai Yisha, "Yisha, if you run into them in the future, ignore them if you can, and walk away if you can. They're dirty."
He recalled Deng Rui's harsh words earlier and had a bad feeling about it.
Bai Yisha nodded solemnly and said nothing more.
Soon, they arrived at the Starlight Welfare Home.
After parking the car, Bai Yisha handed him the helmet and turned to look around the Starlight Welfare Home.
The welfare home is small, and although it shows signs of age, it has been renovated. If you don't look closely, you might mistake it for a kindergarten.
The doorway was covered with stickers and cute doodles.
The occasional laughter of children drifted out from here, and it was quite infectious.
Thinking of Lu Mingxing's background, Bai Yisha suddenly felt a little worried. Without the slightest hesitation, she reached out and took Lu Mingxing's hand, stubbornly inserting her fingers into his, their ten fingers intertwined.
Lu Mingxing was slightly taken aback. He looked down at the hand held by the little girl and chuckled softly for no reason, letting her hold his hand.
"It's been a while since I've been here. I wonder if the Dean's illness has improved. It's quite shameful to say that I didn't come even once when the Dean was sick."
Bai Yisha shook her head and said understandingly, "Back then, you were embroiled in scandals and had no choice. The reason you didn't come was to protect the Dean, and you've been sending money over all this time."
Lu Mingxing smiled faintly, her gentle gaze lingering on Bai Yisha, who was half a step ahead of her.
"Stars? They're my stars!"
A woman's voice came from ahead. She hesitated at first, but after confirming that it was Lu Mingxing, her tone rose slightly.
The dean stood up from her seat, somewhat excited.
"Dean Mom!"
The moment Lu Mingxing saw the dean, he tightened his grip on Bai Yisha's hand and quickened his pace as he walked over.
Bai Yisha also released Lu Mingxing's hand at the right time, watching Lu Mingxing hug his mother, the headmistress.
My nose felt inexplicably sore.
The children in the orphanage were either adopted or taken home by the family. Lu Mingxing, for example, was raised by the director from infancy, so their bond was naturally different.
Lu Mingxing wasn't without adoptive families, but he refused to leave. He escaped from other families three times and walked back to the orphanage on his own two legs, which finally stopped the director from letting him be adopted by anyone else.
To the dean, Lu Mingxing was like her child.
"Oh, my good boy, I saw you on TV! You're amazing! My baby is truly the best!"
The dean is sixty years old this year. She kindly stretched out her calloused hands and touched the back of Lu Mingxing's head, smiling with a satisfied expression.
Lu Mingxing's eyes were red and she could no longer hold back. Crystal tears slid down her cheeks, and her voice trembled slightly: "Auntie Dean, I'm so sorry. I couldn't come to see you before. I miss you so much."
His crying brought tears to the eyes of the dean as well.
As people get older, they tend to become more sentimental.
Bai Yisha was the most empathetic and couldn't stand these things. She started crying loudly, which startled the headmistress.
She paused for a moment, then turned her head and saw a delicate and lovely porcelain doll standing next to her. She blinked and hurriedly said, "Oh dear, why is Xiao Bao crying like this? Xingxing, is this your girlfriend? She's so cute, and she's even crying."
Xingxing regained her senses after Bai Yisha's loud cry, and was both amused and exasperated. She quickly turned around, hugged Bai Yisha, and gently coaxed her.
Bai Yisha buried her face in Lu Mingxing's arms and sobbed, "Waaah, Xingxing, I miss my grandma..."
That old lady, I don't know if she knew she wasn't from the Gao family, but anyway, the old lady treated her extremely well.
That was her only thought.
Lu Mingxing had heard her tell the story of how Yang Cuiping bullied her when she was a child, and how Gao Yaozu's grandmother protected her. Gao Yaozu couldn't be all that bad, and his grandmother deserves half the credit for that.
He held Bai Yisha in his arms, gently patted her back, and soothed her in soft, gentle voices.
The headmistress wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, looking at Lu Mingxing with some relief.
This kid has finally found his home.
"Dean..."
The voice behind the dean interrupted her gentleness. She turned her head and saw a man and a woman walking out of the inner courtyard. Her expression was moved, and she finally let out a long sigh.
Lu Mingxing naturally saw the two figures as well, and his body stiffened slightly.
The little girl in his arms was still crying loudly, rubbing against his shoulder with snot and tears.
Lu Mingxing lowered his eyes, and after a long while, he patted Bai Yisha on the back and said, "Shasha, do you want to see my biological parents? They should be them."
The simplest way to stop Bai Yisha from crying is to distract her.
Bai Yisha stopped crying abruptly, looked up sharply, and turned to look at the headmistress. Behind the headmistress stood two people, looking rather reserved.
Her eyes were filled with tears, making it impossible to see the person's face clearly.
She wanted to rub her eyes, so Lu Mingxing took out a pack of tissues from his pocket, pulled out two tissues, and gently wiped away her tears and blew her nose.
"Okay, little baby, stop crying, or you'll want to see me cry later."
Lu Mingxing leaned down slightly, staring into Bai Yisha's bright amber eyes, and smiled faintly.
Bai Yisha was amused by him, reached out and took his hand, and stepped forward with him.
"Your name is Lu Mingxing?"
Jiang Lai spoke hesitantly, taking two steps forward with a sense of unease.
She never imagined that the child she gave birth to more than 20 years ago would still be alive.
He's still a promising singer with a large following.
Su Xinci glanced at Jiang Lai, then at Lu Mingxing, who looked about five-tenths like Jiang Lai. After a long silence, she finally stepped forward and patted Lu Mingxing on the shoulder.
"It's windy outside. Letting the little girl out in the wind will make her catch a cold. What's the matter? Let's go inside and talk."
At this time of day, the children at the welfare home are playing games. Several seven- or eight-year-olds peek out and look at them curiously.
Lu Mingxing observed their calm expressions, concealing his disappointment, then turned and put his arm around Bai Yisha's shoulder, saying in a hoarse voice, "Then let's go inside first."
The dean's mother had a very complicated expression.
