He died to save me, and was reborn to be favored by him

Wen Boyu and An Ning are the same as they were back then.

Each class for the children lasts two hours.

No fees are charged.

They also provide various painting supplies themselves.

I am truly doing charity and have been doing it for many years.

Finished class.

Wen Boyu made an invitation: "Teacher An, it's almost noon. I wonder if I would have the honor to invite you to lunch?"

"Okay." An Ning had a good impression of Wen Boyu, who was her father's favorite student and his current colleague. He did the same thing as she did back then. When she was not in the country, he continued the children's hope of learning painting.

Successful invitation.

Wen Boyu almost couldn't suppress his excited and irregular heartbeat.

An Ning added: "But I have something else to discuss with Dean Bai, so I may have to wait a while."

"Okay." Wen Boyu asked curiously, "Is it about the children? Can I help?"

An Ning thought for a few moments and said, "If you are interested, come and listen together."

A few minutes later.

The three of them strolled on the 800-meter track of the welfare home.

It's not a secret.

An Ning went straight to the point: "Dean Bai, some of these children are really talented in painting. AI has replaced many professions, including modeling and comics. I agreed to teach them to paint because I was inspired and thought it was meaningful, and also to cultivate their sentiments. It is difficult to really make a living by painting.

"I have a good friend who is engaged in intangible cultural heritage crafts. She recently opened a new studio and wants to recruit some apprentices. Her skills are very good. If I can be selected by her, I will not be rich, but I will have no problem supporting my family in the future.

"I want to discuss with you. If you are willing, I will talk to my friends and let the children run for election."

"This... of course it's good." Dean Bai was so happy that he was incoherent and suddenly grabbed An Ning's hand: "Some of these children were abandoned after birth and their biological parents have not been found until now. Another part was born with defects and was abandoned after being raised for a period of time. Another part had their parents have accidents and there are no relatives to raise them.

“They are all poor children.

"Although the welfare home provides them with food, accommodation and they can go to school like ordinary children, I think you all know how complicated the society is today. They can't compete with those children who have their parents' love and support. I am old and can't give them good resources. When they grow up and enter the society, it will all depend on their own luck.

"If this can be accomplished, it will be a great deed."

Dean Bai said this with tears falling from his eyes.

She stayed with these children all day long, watching them grow up little by little, just like their mother, and naturally felt sorry for them.

An Ning and Wen Boyu were both very moved.

An Ning felt an itch in her throat and sniffed: "Dean Bai, I have to say something in advance. Learning a craft is very hard and requires a lot of suffering. I heard from my friend that when she was a child, all ten of her fingers were worn out. And this thing requires talent, not every child can do it. And I haven't discussed it with my friend yet, whether she is willing or not is another matter.

“I just saw them and it occurred to me.

"If there's no problem on your end, I'll contact her later.

"I can't guarantee how many of the children will be selected."

"I understand, I understand." Dean Bai said hurriedly, "These children have not been spoiled, they are all hardworking. As for talent, of course it depends on your friend's standards. She has provided a path for the children, but whether they can take this path depends on whether they are destined to do so. Don't worry, I will make it clear to the children in advance."

"Yeah." An Ning nodded.

Dean Bai looked embarrassed: "Teacher An, I have another request."

An Ning looked at her: "You can talk as you like."

Dean Bai smiled awkwardly: "There are two welfare homes near us, and I have some friendship with the two directors. These children are all very pitiful. I am not saying that you must provide opportunities for the children. It is just that there is this opportunity, and I want all the children to try. You must not lower the standards because of sympathy. I just..."

"I understand." An Ning saw that she was embarrassed, and understood what she meant: "They are all children from the welfare home, so let them all try. My good friend usually looks easy-going and gentle, treats people very gently, and is very well-educated, but she has always been very principled in dealing with people. She will not lower her standards for any reason. If the standards are lowered, it seems that the children are given a chance now, but if they cannot successfully complete their studies and become apprentices, wouldn't it be a waste of the children's energy and time?"

Dean Bai held An Ning's hand and thanked her repeatedly: "I am also afraid of wasting your time and energy. Training craftsmen must cost a lot. What if the standards for us are particularly low because we are a disadvantaged group? It will be time-consuming and laborious, and I will feel bad. Teacher An, you are really a great benefactor to these children. Thank you on behalf of the children."

An Ning's eyes were slightly red. "Don't say that. I'm just going with the flow. It's not certain whether it will work or not. It's getting late. I'll leave first. I'll come back when there's more to this matter."

"Okay, I'll see you off."

Dean Bai saw her and Wen Boyu off.

They both came by car.

The welfare home is located in a remote area.

So they both drove back to the city.

Wen Boyu's car is in front.

An Ning followed him.

The two men parked their car one after the other in the marked parking area outside a Chinese restaurant.

This Chinese restaurant is very large and decorated in a very stylish way. You can tell at a glance that the owner has excellent taste. It is a quiet place in a bustling city.

The two found a deserted place and sat down by the window.

Wen Boyu handed the menu to An Ning: "My colleagues and I have been to this restaurant several times. The food is delicious. What do you want to eat?"

"Thank you." It was noon and An Ning was hungry. She was always generous and open-minded, without any false politeness. After taking the order, she quickly ordered two dishes.

Wen Boyu added two more dishes, a soup and a dessert.

The order is completed.

The waiter left with the menu.

Wen Boyu poured hot tea for An Ning and said in a very gentle and gentlemanly manner: "Drink some water first."

"Thank you." An Ning held the cup politely.

Wen Boyu also poured himself a cup of tea and took the initiative to find a topic: "I heard from Dean Bai before that you taught in the welfare home for more than three years, and went abroad to study after graduation?"

"Yeah." An Ning felt a little guilty when she thought about her decision back then: "I was just a volunteer at the welfare home at first, and it was Dean Bai who suggested that I teach the children to draw. I was young at that time, and I always thought too simply about many things. Now that I think about it, I taught them for more than three years on a whim. I left right after graduating from college, which was so irresponsible. At that time, I only thought about the colorful world outside and what I wanted to do. Many things... were not well considered."
