On the weekend, Lu Anning couldn't help but go to the orphanage alone while Tang Jingyuan was out busy. She wanted to meet Ouyang Ying alone again.
The orphanage, which should have been bustling, was unusually quiet today. When Lu Anning arrived at the gate, she didn't see as many luxury cars as last time. The security guard had seen Ouyang Ying personally escort her away, so this time, they didn't try to stop Lu Anning.
She easily entered the orphanage and went to Ouyang Ying's office.
On the way upstairs, Lu An Ning didn't meet anyone else and was still wondering. When he reached the office door, he vaguely heard a strange panting sound, and Lu An Ning froze.
this……
How could she, a married woman, be unfamiliar with such a voice? For a moment, she stood outside the door, not knowing whether to knock or leave.
Ouyang Ying looked kind and serious, but she was actually so playful in private. This was the orphanage's office, and people could come in at any time. Wasn't she afraid of being discovered?
She was in a daze when a voice called her from behind.
"Who are you?"
Lu Anning turned around suddenly and saw a man walking towards her. He was one of the men who took Xiaoling away that time.
He looked at Lu Anning warily: "Are you... the Miss Lu from last time? Are you here to see Dean Ouyang?"
"Yes. I was about to knock when you came over."
The man looked at Lu Anning intently and asked, "Did you make an appointment with the dean?"
Before Lu An Ning could answer, the door opened and another male teacher came out first. He glanced at Lu An Ning casually, then looked at the man from before, smiled provocatively, and deliberately pushed him away.
"The dean invites Miss Lu in. You... wait for a moment!"
Standing aside, Lu Anning could clearly feel the gunpowder in the eyes of the two men, giving people the illusion that they were rivals in love meeting each other.
The man who came first frowned and ignored the man who came out of the office.
He glanced at Lu Anning and said, "Miss Lu, please go first!"
Lu Anning smiled and nodded. When she entered, Ouyang Ying was already dressed neatly. However, the desk, which was originally piled with documents, was too clean and tidy, and there were faint water stains. When she raised her eyes, she accidentally caught a glimpse of the smudged lipstick at the corner of Ouyang Ying's mouth, and felt uncomfortable.
Ouyang Ying smiled nonchalantly and asked Lu An Ning to sit down: "Miss Lu, is there anything else? Did you meet the old dean last time?"
Lu Anning looked at her quietly: "He did, but unfortunately, he didn't recognize me. He forgot everything and he's not doing well in the nursing home. Does Dean Ouyang know about this?"
Ouyang Ying had a kind smile on her face. "Miss Lu, you don't know. Ever since I took over the orphanage, I've been so anxious to make it better and provide the children with a better living environment. I've been so busy that I can't find the time to visit the old director. I really don't have the energy to do it! He's all alone, old, and has no one to take care of him. It's so difficult for him to live a good life."
Ouyang Ying recounted the difficulties she had faced over the years, and every word she said was about how difficult it was for her. The more Lu An Ning listened, the more ridiculous it seemed to him.
Looking at Ouyang Ying's kind face again, he felt even more disgusted, and a word suddenly came to his mind: a snake heart with a Buddha's mouth.
"The dean cares so much about those children. What do you think about Xiaoling's accident?"
Ouyang Ying's smile froze, and she sighed deeply, "What a shame! That child has no self-respect, what a shame. She originally had a bright future, but she chose to go astray, hanging out with shady people, and ended up losing her life. She refused to listen!"
"But I don't remember that when I came here that day, she grabbed my hand and begged for help. I clearly saw injuries on her wrist. It was the dean's men who dragged her away."
Lu An Ning stared at Ouyang Ying, wishing he could see through her.
Ouyang Ying was shocked: "Miss Lu, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want. She faked those injuries herself. She asked you for help so that she could find those people outside. You don't know the reason, so don't misunderstand my painstaking efforts. I watched these children grow up, how could I possibly harm them?"
"Who are those people?"
"Haha! How should I know! I'm just a dean. The children are grown up, and I can't enter their world."
"Really? Then why, ever since you became the director, has this orphanage only accepted girls?"
"Of course it's for easier management. Otherwise, if boys and girls live together, things could get bad when they get older. Kids these days mature very early. Miss Lu has never raised a child, so how would she know about this?"
"Since there's a gender difference, why are all the other teachers men? Doesn't this need to be taboo? Also, what about the old dean's head injury?"
Lu An Ning spoke in a resounding voice, approaching step by step. Ouyang Ying's answer was flawless. At this moment, their eyes met, sparks flew, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
Ouyang Ying looked at Lu An Ning and smiled mysteriously: "Miss Lu has so many questions today, from Xiaoling's matter to the old dean's injury. What are you hinting at?"
"That depends on what Dean Ouyang knows and what he has done over the years."
Ouyang Ying smiled and said, "I'm honest and never do anything that goes against my conscience. The old director was old and fell down the stairs and hit his head. I was the one who saved his life and took him to the hospital. Miss Lu, it's not your turn to hold me accountable for the orphanage."
The office suddenly became quiet. Lu Anning stared at Ouyang Ying for a long time before finally changing the subject.
"Okay! Then I want to see the records left by the old director when he was here. I think they should be there, right? I want to check all the information about my time at the orphanage."
Ouyang Ying shrugged. "I really can't help you with this. Those old records were lost long ago. They're all electronically archived now, and the old stuff can't be found anymore. Miss Lu, is there anything else? I have other plans. Goodbye, I won't see you off."
