The car was speeding along the country road. Yu You, sitting in the passenger seat, looked at Qin Zhiheng with great interest, staring until the tips of his ears turned slightly red.

"There's something wrong with you. Tell me, where are you taking me?"

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was extremely busy because of the unexpected incident at the bidding meeting.

Even the minister was treated like a soldier, and Qin Zhiheng was able to take a vacation at this critical juncture.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer houses along the street, Yu You finally realized that they had reached the outskirts of Beijing.

"I promised someone to come visit a child."

Qin Zhiheng gently stepped on the brakes, and the slightly dilapidated building in front of him gradually became clear, and finally the entire building was revealed.

Beijing Catholic Charity Orphanage.

The huge red cross hanging high above the gate is very old and even a little faded.

Yu You raised his eyebrows and got out of the car silently.

He took the fruits and pastries from Qin Zhiheng's hand and led the way inside.

There were not many adults in the orphanage. As the sun was shining brightly in the morning, the director gathered all the children in the playground to bask in the sun.

There was only one exception, a child about twelve or thirteen years old. She squatted in the dark with her head down, motionless, staring straight out of the yard.

Qin Zhiheng spotted her at a glance and walked over.

"Heroic."

The little girl looked up suddenly, her eyes full of excitement, but they quickly dimmed after she saw Qin Zhiheng's face clearly.

Yingzi...Kong Yingzhe, is this child related to Kong Yingzhe?

"Mr. Qin, right? We talked on the phone. I didn't expect you to come so early."

The director's mother came forward to greet him. The moment she saw Yingzi, her face looked a little ugly, mixed with helplessness.

"That's her on the phone. Including the one here, she's been to more than ten orphanages, from Jincheng all the way to Beijing, across seven or eight provinces and cities."

Ten years ago.

Yingzi was only three years old at that time and had nowhere to go except the orphanage.

But she is pretty and has no physical problems, so she is adopted almost everywhere she goes.

She can't stay in anyone's house for long and will run away soon.

He ran aimlessly, and if he met a kind person, he would be given food. If he met a policeman, he would be sent to the nearest orphanage.

This went on repeatedly until she settled down in Beijing, and she didn't run away for four or five years.

But also because of her previous situation, no family was willing to adopt her.

"Hubby, do you think she knew Kong Yingzhe was in Beijing, so she..."

"It's almost certain. I saw the donation receipt and scammed Kong Yingzhe. He only had one request after being imprisoned, hoping that his sister would be protected."

Qin Zhiheng and Yu You had roughly guessed the situation, but they were still worried when they heard the headmistress's words.

"This child won't talk to anyone now. The doctor says if this continues, he'll definitely get sick."

“It’s a bit autistic.”

Yu You also noticed something. Most autistic patients are geniuses in certain areas.

For example, Yingzi in front of us was able to reach Beijing at such a young age. Although it was all thanks to the orphanage, the hardships involved were unimaginable to ordinary people.

If she encounters any human traffickers on the road, she will suffer a bad fate.

If Yingzi really wanted to find Kong Yingzhe, then she probably ran away on purpose in order to move to a safe area.

Qin Zhiheng had not anticipated such a situation and felt somewhat helpless.

"Can it be cured?"

“Yes, but the effect is not good.”

The current development of psychiatric medicine in China is of no help to Yingzi's illness.

She is waiting for someone.

No one except Kong Yingzhe can restore her to health.

Qin Zhiheng frowned slightly. "Although he made meritorious contributions in the end, the crime of espionage is a serious one. Not sentencing him to death is already the most charitable act."

The implication is that there is no possibility for Kong Yingzhe to be released from prison early.

"They are not biological siblings. Kong Yingzhe was adopted by Yingzi's biological parents and later abandoned, so Yingzi has no right to visit him."

"Then we can only start with psychological intervention treatment. Director Ma, we will cover all medical expenses."

Yu You looked at those empty eyes and took on the responsibility that did not belong to her without hesitation.

Kong Yingzhe deserved the punishment, but Yingzi was really pitiful.

The two of them learned many details from the director's mother until someone else came to the hospital and interrupted their conversation.

The visitor turned out to be a familiar face.

"Director Fang."

"Deputy Minister Qin."

The two men shook hands briefly. Qin Zhiheng and Fang Cao had no work-related dealings, but they knew each other because of Xi Feng.

From the Fang family's perspective, Xi Feng was unwilling to marry Fang Zifei because of Qin Zhiya.

When the Qin family fell into the quagmire in the past, they naturally looked down on it.

But things are different now. Thirty years in the east and thirty years in the west, the Qin family is now at its peak. It can only be said that Xi Feng has good vision.

As for Zhao Wen, who was following behind Fang Zifei, he was ignored by everyone.

Qin Zhiheng still remembered the evil deeds he had done to Qin Zhichu.

"Once we have finished what we need to do, we won't bother you anymore."

Qin Zhiheng and Yu You walked away together, looking like a couple from heaven, which made Fang Zifei jealous.

How come other couples can be so loving and loving, but she found a scheming person?

"Mr. Fang, Ms. Fang, you said on the phone that you wanted to adopt a healthy boy. We only have one in our orphanage. You should go and take a look."

Most of the abandoned children have congenital disabilities and are abandoned because their biological parents cannot afford to support them.

Apart from that, there are girls. Even though the country has been promoting that having a boy or a girl is the same, many people still hold on to their own opinions.

Family planning was strictly enforced, so they had no choice but to abandon their child and lie about the child's death in order to get a new birth permit.

The Fang family's request immediately expelled all the children from the orphanage.

The only one left, Fang Cao, took a look and then walked out.

The boy didn't look like he was missing any limbs, but he was almost three years old, still crawling on the ground with a silly grin on his face, and he didn't look very smart.

Fang Cao needs to train a successor to the Fang family, and he has no interest in raising a waste.

I might as well ask someone to check in the hospital to see if there are any babies who are being sent away as soon as they are born.

He walked away, but Fang Zifei pointed at Yingzi in the corner and shouted:

"Dad, look how beautiful this child is! She's the prettiest among all the orphanages out there. I want to take her in as my daughter. It would be so prestigious to take her out."

Fang Cao rejected it without a second thought.

"No, the child is too old to be raised well, and even when he grows up, he may not be very close to you."

"It's too young for me to raise. Do you want me to breastfeed the baby?"

Zhao Wen was musing to himself, since the child was already as old as Yanyan, it would be better for him to raise his own daughter.

But Fang Cao was still there, so he didn't dare to say a word and only responded submissively:

"I think Zifei is right. It's easier to raise a child when he's older."

"If you want to find someone younger, take one more, then you'll have a boy and a girl."

Fang Zifei was unwilling to give up the child she loved.

It would be better to raise a beautiful daughter than to take the trouble to raise a boy.

As for passing on the family line?

As long as the child is born by her daughter, he is 100% her own. Isn't he more useful than a man?
