The little boy stopped crying.

He sniffed in grievance as he picked up his damaged blocks, but at the same time he firmly occupied the position in front of Ye Kong, refusing to move a step to put the blocks away.

"Eleven Eleven, you haven't told me what I think of my painting? Is it good-looking?"

"Eleven Eleven, my paintings are better looking! When your paintings on the wall start to peel off, I can help you fix them! This way, the flowers in our flower box will never wither!"

"Eleven! Do you want an apple or a banana?"

"Eleven," Xiaocao, who had been silent like a shadow beside Ye Kong, suddenly spoke. Her voice fell into the air. Although her voice was childish, her tone was clear and cool, with a calmness that was completely inconsistent with her age. "Now that you are back this time, are you still leaving?"

When the woman heard her daughter speak, she immediately straightened her back and looked over nervously.

Ye Kong supported his chin and answered casually in front of all the children's expectant eyes: "Let's go, we'll leave in a few days."

Xiaocao stopped talking again, and the children became visibly depressed.

The woman thought this was an opportunity, and she said to Xiaocao, "Xiaocao, look, this sister also found her home, so she couldn't stay in the orphanage forever. Isn't it the same for you? Now that mom and dad have found you, you should also be like this eleventh sister, and go back to your own home with us, instead of staying in this orphanage forever, don't you think?"

Xiao Cao looked up at her with a very quiet look in her eyes, then turned to look at Ye Kong quietly: "Eleven, have you really found your home? Is that home good?"

"..." The girl tapped her chin with her slender fingers a few times, and under the woman's pleading and expectant gaze, she slowly answered, "It's fake, not good."

These four concise words made Dean Sun's eyes dim instantly.

Xiao Cao's eyes lit up: "Then shouldn't I leave too?!"

She even moved forward.

Before Ye Kong could reply, the woman collapsed first: "What do you mean?! What are you talking about? Don't you want Xiaocao to go with us? Then why did you come back?!"

Her eyes quickly turned red, and she pointed at Ye Kong and said, "You are not that old, how can you be so bad-tempered? You just dared to bully a child openly, and my daughter has been bullied by you before! Do you think you can treat her like this just because you paid for her medical expenses?!"

"You..." Qu Wu's eyes turned cold and she was about to speak, but Ye Kong stopped her by raising his finger without even raising his head.

The old dean also remained silent upon seeing this.

So the whole hall could only hear the woman's sharp voice with a crying tone: "What's that word called? PUA! Yes! You are PUAing these kids! You rely on your age and money to order them around! You bully them like kittens and puppies! Or you... By the way, weren't you found by a rich family? Why did you say it was fake just now and that your family is not good? Are you..."

She continued without pausing, "Were you kicked out by a rich family? So you can't bear to see my Xiaocao happy? But Xiaocao is different from you! You are not a good kid, so normal people won't like a daughter like you. But just because you are unhappy, you can't prevent other children from finding happiness! Aren't all the children here your brothers and sisters? How can you be a sister like this?! You are simply... simply a piece of shit!"

At the end she slapped her thighs twice, angrily.

The crisp sound like high-fives echoed in the hall for two seconds.

Then, the room fell into complete silence.

Ye Kong didn't even raise an eyebrow and let her scold him. Seeing her calm reaction, the man who was originally sitting behind the woman with vigilance also relaxed. An unlit cigarette was pinched between his rough, calloused fingers, and he was now pacing back and forth anxiously, but his expression looked silent and steady.

After Ye Kong's eyes swept across the couple's faces, the woman finally calmed down her breathing, which had become rapid due to anger.

The silence in the room finally made her feel something was wrong, so she looked up.

——The sky outside is very bright and the lighting inside is also very good.

But in such a bright and childlike room full of children's toys, at this moment she felt as if she had fallen into the scene of a horror movie.

She met each child's eyes.

Some of them stared at her with anger, while others just looked at her coldly. The same thing was that all the children stopped what they were doing, turned around and stared at her silently as if she were an enemy.

Even the little boy who had just been bullied by Ye Kong was staring silently with a pair of tearful eyes.

And her daughter—

The woman looked over with a chill all over her body and saw Xiaocao rushing towards her silently, like a reckless calf.

But just when he rushed out half a body, Ye Kong beside him grabbed the clothes without even looking at him, pulled him back and forced him to sit down.

"you are right."

Ye Kong finally spoke, his tone as calm as a lake without ripples, "I just bully them recklessly because I'm the one paying - so what?"

The corners of her mouth curled up, and she smiled wickedly: "You want to speak up for them, fine, give me money first."

She let go of the grass, spread out her bandaged hand to the woman, and hooked her fingers.

woman:……

Her face, which had turned red due to anger, soon turned pale. After a while, she bit her lip and said, "I... I don't have any money at the moment, but, but I will definitely pay you back for Xiaocao's medical expenses!"

Ye Kong's eyes moved and he took his hand back.

The woman knelt down and moved forward a few steps. Her eyes were filled with eager desire. She looked at Ye Kong and said, "Ms. Ye - I heard that your last name is Ye, and you grew up here. You must know best what it feels like to be without a father or a mother. Since you are willing to pay for Xiaocao's surgery to save her, it means that you definitely treat her as your sister. As a sister, you should always hope for your sister's happiness, right? I beg you, Xiaocao is young and ignorant now. When she grows up and knows how important a complete family is, she will blame you for stopping her..."

Ye Kong smiled: "When did I stop her?"

She spread her hands and said, "I'm not her sister, I'm not anyone's sister. I'm just an investor in this orphanage, but I never stop these children from making their own choices."

"You..." The woman was angry again, "You are simply lying with your eyes open! Don't they all listen to you?!"

"So you want me to convince your daughter to go back with you." Ye Kong lowered his eyelids, but the corners of his mouth curled up, "Instead of relying on you - the so-called fatherly and motherly love and the happiness that a complete family can bring her?"

"You're taking shortcuts even in finding your child." The girl said with a smile, raising her eyes, but her gaze was like a needle in the snow, "No wonder it was so easy when you lost it."
