Chapter 5 Dark Orphanage
It was like a cold tide sweeping over him, and Xie Ziyu's fingertips felt chilled.
"Are you an orphan, in an orphanage?" He took a deep breath, squatted down, and put his arms around the stars.
The child was crying and gasping for breath, sobbing and unable to utter a word.
Her little face turned red, her body trembled, and her fingers tightly grasped the hem of Xie Ziyu's clothes, her fingertips turned white.
"I'm sorry." Xie Ziyu couldn't help frowning with distress, and raised his hand to wipe her tears awkwardly, "I'm sorry, don't cry, it's not that I don't want you."
But he didn't expect that such a delicate and pretty little dumpling was actually an orphan.
He also grew up in an orphanage.
Being abused, being traded, escaping, being beaten, and there was a lot of blood -
Until I met my father.
"Is this the Blue Sky Orphanage?" He held the little girl in his arms, touched her head, and asked in a low voice.
When Xingxing heard that her brother didn't abandon her, her tears stopped.
But I cried so hard just now and was twitching.
“Yes, yes…”
Xie Ziyu clenched his fingers.
This was the place he dreamed of destroying.
He is not yet able to compete with it.
He never thought of seeking help from his father or brothers.
They were a family, but they were never a family.
Xingxing seemed to be living well in the orphanage, but he knew what kind of orphanage this was.
Xingxing is so cute, and was raised so that she can trust others easily, just like a little angel.
In a place like that, you must be given special care.
I'm afraid it was prepared for someone.
Xie Ziyao gently patted Xingxing's back to help her calm down, then he lowered his eyes and said nothing.
The policeman also rushed over and said, "This child is quite strong. Okay, you carry her back to the police station. I'll drive the car."
"No need." Xie Ziyu picked up Xingxing and looked over. "She is a child from the Blue Sky Orphanage. I'll send her back."
When Xingxing heard this, her eyes widened, and she grabbed Xie Ziyu's collar with her little hands, pouting as if she wanted to cry again.
Xie Ziyu leaned close to Xingxing's ear and whispered to her:
"Xingxing, be good and don't cry. Brother will take you home."
The police frowned: "You kid..."
Before he could finish his words, Xie Ziyu stopped a car and got in with the sobbing little Tuanzi in his arms.
"Blue Sky Orphanage." Xie Ziyao said to the driver.
The driver stepped on the accelerator, and at the same time, Xingxing's soft sobs were heard.
"Brother...I still don't want the stars..."
Although she is small, she is not stupid.
Although she liked her brother very much, her brother seemed to dislike her and wanted to send her back.
The little hands clenched sadly, then slowly loosened.
The child lowered his head, tears falling down:
"Stars are bad, right... So mom and dad don't want stars, and my brother doesn't want them either..."
Although the dean was very nice to her, she didn't like it there.
The kids there were always skinny and small, and they looked at her in a way that made her feel particularly uncomfortable.
The aunties also didn't allow her to talk to other children.
Sometimes, she always feels a little scared.
So she finally found her brother, and she wanted him to take her back to her real home...
"No," Xie Ziyu frowned, his heart aching.
"No, Xingxing is the cutest kid in the world. My brother likes him very much."
He wiped away Xingxing's tears and looked into her watery eyes that looked like the starry sky.
"I am sending you back because they will definitely find you. I am not able to fight them now. I am still a student and I am not qualified to take you home.
"But believe me, Xingxing. I will get you out of the orphanage, definitely, and soon."
The boy's voice was hoarse and soft, and the stars inexplicably became quiet.
Her little head didn't quite understand what Xie Ziyao said, but she caught the last two sentences.
"Brother, will you come and take Xingxing with you? Let's go?"
"Yes, within three days." Xie Ziyu nodded.
He is certainly not a good person, but he always does what he says.
Xingxing's eyes lit up and she nodded vigorously: "Okay! Hook!"
He stretched out his little finger in a baby voice and put it in front of Xie Ziyu.
Xie Ziyu lowered his eyes to look at her, pursed his lips, and hooked his slender fingertips with hers.

The entrance of Blue Sky Orphanage.
As soon as Xie Ziyu got out of the car holding Xingxing, several people at the door ran over.
"Hey my star! Where have you been?"
Dean Li, who was in the lead, looked particularly anxious.
The middle-aged woman had a kind face, but the moment Xie Ziyu saw her, he pinched his palms tightly.
I really want to slit this woman's throat and watch her fall to the ground and die with her eyes open.
But he quickly lowered his eyes and passed the stars by.
They will not harm the stars for the time being, and he will definitely bring the stars out as soon as possible -
Dean Li hugged Xingxing, but Xingxing held Xie Ziyu's neck tightly.
She pursed her little lips tightly, not crying, but not letting go either.
Dean Li smiled with relief: "Thank you, young man. Our Xingxing was spoiled and ran around everywhere.
"Okay, Xingxing, say goodbye to your brother and let's go home."
The stars still don't let go.
It was the first time that Dean Li saw Xingxing being so disobedient, and his face darkened slightly.
Xie Ziyi keenly noticed the change in Dean Li and gently held Xingxing's hand.
He pulled the star off his neck and whispered something in her ear.
The stars really listened.
She was held in Dean Li's arms, and Dean Li carried her back.
Xingxing twisted her head and looked at Xie Ziyu who was standing at the door.
Brother won’t lie to her. He said before that if she counted to thirty, she would win. Now he says, count to a hundred every day, and when she counts to three hundred, he will come to catch the stars.
The stars will definitely count obediently.
Surrounded by the crowd, Xingxing was taken back to her own private room.
As soon as the door was closed, Xingxing was about to apologize to the dean.
But suddenly, I felt a strong sense of weightlessness!
She was thrown onto the bed!
Although the bed was very soft, Xingxing was still scared!
She had never seen the dean aunt like this before.
She swung her short limbs erratically, trying to get up from the bed, but was suddenly pressed on the chest by Dean Li's big hand.
Dean Li, who always had a smile on his face, looked down at her with a blank expression.
"Xingxing, you have really grown up, become naughty, and have your own ideas.
"So, it's almost time to find an adoptive parent for you."
Dean Li was standing with his back to the light, and his usually friendly face turned grim and cold.
For a moment, she seemed to coincide with the monster that eats children in fairy tales.
"Waaaaaa——" Xingxing was so scared that her little face turned pale and she couldn't help crying loudly.
But in the next second, Dean Li covered his mouth.
"Shut up." Dean Li's voice was cold. "Be good."
Xingxing's nose was already blocked from crying, and now her mouth was covered tightly. She struggled with her little hands to pry free the big hand that was clamping her.
But how can a small ant compete with an elephant?
The frightened child's limbs gradually became limp, and his dark pupils began to become dazed, and only then did Dean Li let go of his hand.
Xingxing was breathing heavily and coughing continuously. His pale little face turned red again and his little body curled up into a ball.
"S-Sorry... Dean, Auntie..."
The child's instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm made her subconsciously begin to apologize.
Dean Li looked down at her and nodded with satisfaction:
"My good star is to be obedient."
Having said that, she strode out.

Outside the orphanage, Xie Ziyu dialed a number.
"Brother, do me a favor."
