After being abandoned by my parents, I became a top boss

As if she had thought of something, the girl's eyes were full of shock and she looked at the person in front of her in disbelief.

There was a fierce gun battle that day, many people died and a lot of blood was shed, and she thought she would die there too.

But no, someone rescued her.

The man was holding a gun and wearing clothes similar to those in the jungle. He held her tightly in his arms and broke through the hail of bullets.

Although she didn't know whether that man was a good person, she knew that he was saving her.

But it was too chaotic that day and she couldn't see his face clearly.

Is this the person in front of me?

If it was really him, could she trust him?

What if he is also a wolf in hypocritical sheep's clothing?

She was not sure if she was safe now, nor was she sure if she had fallen from one wolf's den into another.

It’s no wonder she thinks this way. Even her family has abandoned her, so who can she trust?

Moreover, after she turned five, she was either being resold or on the way to being resold.

She really didn't have the courage to trust anyone anymore.

Without hope, there will be no disappointment.

Li Chen saw the scrutiny in her eyes and smiled, "Don't you recognize me?"

The girl's expression remained the same, and he added: "It doesn't matter if you can't recognize her. Let's get to know each other again."

Then he stretched out his hand, "Hello, my name is Li Chen."

The hand was suspended in the air for more than half a minute, and the girl didn't react at all. He had to withdraw his hand, "It's okay, we'll take it slow."

After a long time, Li Chen said again: "Little girl, if you really don't know where your home is and who your family is, why don't I find a home for you, okay?"

The girl's eyes were full of shock and disbelief. Home?

He said he wanted to find her a home.

She hadn't heard the word "home" for a long time.

"If you don't say anything, I'll take that as your consent." He smiled brightly, like sunshine, shining into the girl's heart, making her feel warm.

The girl seemed to be infected by this smile. How long had it been since she saw such a warm and sunny smile?

A corner of the protective wall she had built in her heart collapsed. She wanted to try to believe him. At least at this moment, she chose to believe him.

The worst outcome is death.

She'd already been through the gates of hell twice, so she wouldn't mind one more time.

On the day of discharge, Li Chen did not wear the army green clothes, but changed into casual clothes, a black leather jacket, a black shirt inside, and black pants on the bottom. His legs looked straight and slender, and more noble than usual.

Lin Qiutang and others came to the hospital early and brought her some daily clothes.

At this time, the clothes were spread out on the bed for the girl to choose from.

There are white princess dresses, nice work clothes, and simple shirts + sweatpants, which were chosen by Su Tian, ​​Li Qian, and Lin Qiutang respectively.

Knowing that she was going to be discharged from the hospital and would have no everyday clothes, they went to the mall the day before. Originally, the three of them wanted to pick out an outfit together, but after choosing for a while, they all had their own opinions and could not reach a consensus.

In the end, it was decided that each of them would pick one set and see whose the little girl would choose in the end.

The girl looked at the three sets of clothes on the bed and finally picked up the simplest one.

Su Tian was shocked. "Little sister, why don't you choose a princess dress? Princess dresses are beautiful."

"It doesn't look good. Overalls look good."

The girl didn't say anything, but just looked at Li Chen beside her.

Li Chen understood and looked at the three people in the room, "Let's go out and wait."

Having said that, he took the lead and walked towards the ward door.

Seeing this, the other three followed out.

Su Tian could never understand why there would be a little girl who didn’t like princess dresses?

Seeing her confused face, Lin Qiutang raised his hand and patted her shoulder, "I won this round."

"Lin Pai, that doesn't count." Su Tian retorted, "That little girl is different from other little girls. If it were any other little girl, she would definitely choose a princess dress!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Qian slapped her on the back of the head, "Who are you calling weird?"

Li Chen raised his eyes to look at her, and Lin Qiutang's gaze also fell on her.

Feeling the gazes of the crowd that seemed to want to peel off her skin, Su Tian no longer had the momentum she had just now. Like a wilted flower in the sun, she lowered her voice and said, "It's my bad taste. The clothes I picked are not liked by the little girl. I'm different, it has nothing to do with the little girl."

Li Chen then lowered his eyes and looked at the ground, not knowing what he was thinking.

Lin Qiutang also retracted his gaze, but Li Qian at the side couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Look at what you can do, let's see if you dare to speak nonsense next time."

Su Tian glared at her and said, "You are the only one who talks too much."

Just at this moment, the door of the ward was opened.

The clothes were a little big for the girl and they were baggy on her. Her sweatpants were also a little long and reached her ankles. Her hair was disheveled and her face was sallow from years of malnutrition.

"This..." Lin Qiutang wanted to explain, but when the words came to his lips, he took them back.

She bought the clothes according to the size of an eight-year-old girl, but she didn't expect them to be too big.

The little girl has indeed suffered a lot in the past few years. Although she is only eleven or twelve years old, her size is not as good as that of an eight-year-old child.

She was too small, had a bad complexion, and her hair was a little frizzy.

After a moment of silence, Lin Qiutang said, "Sister, let me comb your hair!"

She squatted down, and her tone was obviously much gentler than usual.

She felt a little sorry for the child. An adult would have found it hard to endure what she had gone through, but she survived.

Perhaps they expected too much and always wanted her to speak.

But she is just a child. She has suffered so much inhuman treatment in the past. It is already very strong for her to survive. Why should she ask for so much more?

As long as I can grow up healthy and safely, that's enough.

The girl did not refuse. She turned and walked into the ward, climbed onto the bed, and then turned sideways. She was small and sat there obediently.

She was waiting for Lin Qiutang to come and comb her hair.

After understanding what she meant, Lin Qiutang followed and took out a wooden comb from the drawer of the bedside table. She moved very gently for fear of hurting her.

"Sister will be gentle. If you feel any pain, just raise your hand."

The girl did not respond, but just sat there obediently, her little back filled with stubbornness and bitterness.

Lin Qiutang tied her hair into a high ponytail, and she didn't raise her hand once the whole time.

Her hair was tangled and very difficult to comb out. Even though she was very gentle, it sometimes pulled her scalp. She thought she would raise her hand to be gentler.

But no, she didn't move at all the time. She just sat there quietly and let her comb her hair.

Maybe those past experiences were a thousand times more painful than the pain of hair pulling on scalp?
