Chapter 50 Clues to Life

Shang Yuze's gentle voice was like a gentle breeze: "Yueyue, Grandpa and I will always be your family."

Gu Qingyue was slightly stunned. She turned around and looked at the handsome man's profile. Her heart was churning. She suddenly asked, "Shang Yuze, will we be together forever?"

Shang Yuze raised the corners of his lips, his brows relaxed: "Yes, you are my wife, I am your husband, we must be together forever."

Gu Qingyue lowered her eyes shyly.

If I could really be with Shang Yuze forever, it would seem quite exciting.

Shang Yuze saw from the corner of his eye that the little girl's earlobe had turned red due to shyness, and the curve of her lips deepened a little.

The atmosphere in the car was ambiguous and charming.

It wasn't until Shang Yuze brought her a bowl of Chinese medicine after they returned home that Gu Qingyue's face instantly fell, and the ambiguous atmosphere disappeared.

When it comes to principles, it's useless to act coquettishly or pretend to be pitiful.

Under the threat and pressure of a certain man's eyes, Gu Qingyue had no choice but to drink the bitter medicine.

Oh my god! What sins did she commit in her previous life that she has to drink Chinese medicine in this life?

…

Early the next morning, the two went to the orphanage. Shang Ming and Shang Ye each drove a business car and followed behind their car.

The things inside were all specially prepared by Shang Yuze, including new clothes, fresh food, medicine, toys, milk, snacks... and some daily necessities.

The orphanage was indeed located in a remote area, and it took them an hour and a half to drive there.

Everyone's first impression of the orphanage was that it was dilapidated, desolate and small.

The outer wall showed obvious signs of peeling, and the gate was corroded by rust, swaying in the wind and looking precarious.

There is a sign at the gate that says "Renxin Orphanage", and the sign is also covered with rust.

Perhaps they heard the sound of the car, as two children around eight or nine years old popped their heads out from inside.

"Someone's coming."

"What a beautiful sister."

Although the two children were wearing clothes that were washed white, they were very clean and tidy.

One of the girls with pigtails timidly tugged at Gu Qingyue's clothes: "Pretty sister, who are you looking for?"

Gu Qingyue squatted down, touched her little head, and said gently: "I'm here to see your dean, is she here?"

The little girl nodded: "The director's mother is in the room. I'll go call her for you."

She ran in and shouted, "Dean Mom, there's a beautiful sister and a handsome uncle looking for you."

Shang Yuze's eyebrows raised slightly: "Am I old?"

They called Gu Qingyue sister, but called him uncle.

Gu Qingyue laughed: "I'm only seven or eight years old, it's normal for me to call you uncle."

Shang Yuze has been working in the business world for many years, and has developed an aura of authority that comes from his indignation, so he looks mature and steady.

Shang Ming and Shang Ye took all the things out of the car.

The shouting just now made all the children in the orphanage run out of the house. There were more than twenty children in total.

The oldest is only eleven or twelve years old, and the youngest is only three or four years old. Most of them are girls, and several of them are born with deficiencies and disabilities.

Although their clothes were worn out, each of them kept them clean.

Gu Qingyue said with a smile: "These are gifts for you."

The children were delighted: "Thank you, pretty sister, thank you, handsome uncle."

Shang Yuze frowned and corrected, "Call me brother."

A child tilted his head and blinked his big innocent eyes: "But you don't look like a brother."

Shang Yuze: “…”

Gu Qingyue couldn't help but laugh. She suppressed the smile on her lips and said to them, "He likes people to call him brother. From now on, you have to call him brother when you see him. Remember?"

The children said in unison: "I'll remember. Thank you, handsome brother."

Shang Yuze was satisfied now, and his frown relaxed.

Gu Qingyue didn't expect that this man had such a childish side. It seems that not only women care about age, but men care about it too.

A middle-aged woman walked out of the house. Her hair was gray, her face was covered with wrinkles, and her back was slightly hunched. She was only in her fifties, but she looked like she was in her sixties or seventies.

The dean saw Gu Qingyue and walked towards her quickly: "Miss, you really spent a lot of money."

Gu Qingyue hurried forward and held the director's arm: "This is a small token of our appreciation. It's what we should do."

"Let's go inside and talk." The dean led the two of them into the house, and the children gathered around Shang Ming and Shang Ye to pick out gifts.

The dean rummaged through boxes and cupboards to find his treasured tea. After brewing the tea, he poured it for them in a chipped teacup: "What's your name, young lady?"

"My name is Gu Qingyue," Gu Qingyue pointed to the person next to her, "This is my husband Shang Yuze."

The word "Mr." made Shang Yuze very happy, and he secretly pinched the little girl's fingers under the table.

Gu Qingyue grabbed his mischievous hand, then glared at him, signaling him not to move anymore.

The dean looked at them with his old, cloudy eyes: "Why are you here today?"

Gu Qingyue's voice was soft and gentle: "Dean, do you still remember the little girl who was adopted by the Gu family twenty years ago?"

"Gu family." The dean kept muttering these two words.

"I remember that when the Gu family came, they brought a monk with them. They said they wanted to find a little girl with a legitimate relationship, preferably a baby."

Over the years, the Gu family was the only one to bring a monk to the orphanage, so she was particularly impressed.

She looked at Gu Qingyue in surprise: "Are you the little baby from back then?"

Gu Qingyue nodded: "Yes, Dean, do you remember how I came to the orphanage?"

The Gu family adopted her to protect Gu Jiaxin from disaster, so it was normal for them to bring a monk with them.

The director pondered for a moment, then said slowly, "You were abandoned at the door of the orphanage. It had just snowed heavily, and it was freezing cold. You were lying in the snow, crying until your voice was hoarse. Luckily, I was delayed that night and came back late, so I found you."

"I brought you back home. You stayed in the orphanage for two months, and then you were adopted by the Gu family."

After hearing this, Gu Qingyue sat in the chair in a daze, her fingertips gripping the teacup tightening.

It was snowing heavily and he was abandoned at the door of the orphanage.

Was she really abandoned?

Shang Yuze held her slightly cold hand, took the cup from her hand, and wrapped her hand in his palm.

The warmth from the man's palm spread throughout Gu Qingyue's body. Gu Qingyue's eyelashes trembled, and she raised her eyes to meet Shang Yuze's.

His phoenix eyes were as gentle as water, as if they could heal all the wounds in her heart.

At this point, the dean seemed to have thought of something. She stood up with the help of the table, turned around and went back to her room, and found a small box in a shabby drawer. Inside was a small amulet.
