"Childhood sweethearts?" Luo Qianyun was slightly puzzled. "Did you know them when you were in City A? Why are you talking about childhood sweethearts now?"

Lu Yunzheng: "I met them in City A before, and I really didn't expect them to be so close. The Meng family is a well-established wealthy family, and my mother and your grandmother have known each other since childhood. My mother once said that if the Su family's children hadn't gone astray, we could have been a couple."

"I doubt this statement." Luo Qianyun said.

Hearing this, Lu Yunzheng couldn't help but laugh, "How can you be so smart? You can see through any lie I tell."

"Who made us different generations?" Luo Qianyun rested his chin on his hand and tapped the table with his hands. "Now that I think about it, if we had known each other since childhood, wouldn't I have called you...uncle?"

After this, Lu Yunzheng remembered another thing, "Speaking of which, there are two people in the Meng family you have met."

Luo Qianyun paused and quickly responded, "Could it be Meng Chi and Meng Xirou?"

It's no wonder that Luo Qianyun thought of them. In fact, among the people she had met, there were not many with the surname Meng, and they were the only two who were related to Beijing.

"They are actually your uncle's children, and your cousins," Lu Yunzheng said.

Thinking of Meng Xirou who asked for her WeChat after the seminar, Luo Qianyun suddenly felt a little excited.

As the day went on, the rain gradually stopped, but everyone knew that stopping the rain was only the first step.

As the water recedes, things will only get busier.

And over there, things about the orphanage also gradually came to fruition.

The wrongly accused man had a cerebral hemorrhage and even though he had surgery, he is still in danger.

After all, it has been delayed for too long, and no one knows whether he can survive.

Cheng Dabiao has already explained everything that needs to be explained, not only his work in the orphanage, but also the trafficking chain in which he was involved.

Sure enough, he knew that the secret room in the orphanage was an accident, but when the orphanage was raided before, some people escaped, and he was one of them.

This time, he deliberately approached her with the intention of returning to his old business.

Shani had indeed been killed by him and thrown into a dry well in the backyard of the orphanage. The dry well had been abandoned for a long time and was usually covered with a wooden board and a large stone on top to prevent children from accidentally falling in.

But I never thought that one day it would be used as a place to dump corpses.

According to him, it was because Shani was pregnant and he was afraid that the matter would be exposed.

I originally wanted to take her away and sell her to anyone, but Sha Ni was very obedient that day.

After a struggle, Cheng Dabiao accidentally killed her and threw her into a dry well.

As for the children in the orphanage, they were examined one by one. Fortunately, although five or six girls had been molested, perhaps because they were relatively young, the only one who was sexually assaulted was probably dead.

The accomplice who was arrested with Cheng Dabiao was also a human trafficker.

After the typhoon, the accumulated water began to recede gradually, and post-disaster rescue work officially began.

Whether it is rescue search, clearing roadblocks, restoring electricity and communications, or medical assistance, health and epidemic prevention work, etc., each one is very important.

After two busy days, Director Geng and Granny Liu returned to the orphanage again. With the help of the rescue team, they brought Sha Ni from the dry well.

The highly decomposed corpse, soaked in water, had already made her appearance recognizable, but from the clothes she was wearing, Dean Geng and the others still recognized her as Shanni.

In the safe camp, Little Apple sat on the steps holding the unopened cake. People were coming and going, making her look very lonely.

Luo Qianyun had just finished his work when he saw her sitting alone on the steps, and he didn't know what she was thinking about.

"Little Apple, why are you sitting here?" Luo Qianyun walked behind the little girl, bent down and patted her shoulder twice.

"Sister, I'm waiting for Sister Shanni." Little Apple said softly.

Hearing this, Luo Qianyun was stunned, and remembered that Director Geng and the others had returned to the orphanage early in the morning.

But she didn't expect that they were going to pick up Shanni.

"You are little Apple. There are people coming and going here. You are so small that it is easy for you to be stepped on. Can we go to another place?" Luo Qianyun said softly.

But Little Apple refused. She held up the cake in her hand and said, "I want to give the cake to Sister Shanni."

"Your silly sister..." Luo Qianyun hesitated, "Maybe she will come back."

Hearing this, Little Apple said with disappointment: "I know, Sister Shanni has been adopted..."

Realizing that this was a white lie from the dean and the others, Luo Qianyun followed their words and said, "Yes, your sister Shanni was adopted, so you got to eat this little cake."

"Grandma said that she could ask Sister Silly, Dad and Mom..." Little Apple said in a low voice while looking at the cake in her hand.

Looking at Little Apple like this, Luo Qianyun really knew that she already knew the truth.

Do you, a child of this age, understand the meaning of death?

Luo Qianyun knew the answer to this question, and Xiao Pingguo couldn't answer her either.

But the dean and the others are too poor at reasoning. Even if you understand it now, you will understand it in two years.

At this moment, Meng Xian came over from the side and asked, "Why are you sitting on the steps?"

When Xiao Pingguo saw Meng Xian, she called out, "Auntie~"

Hearing this, Meng Xian pinched Xiao Pingguo's little face and said, "Xiao Pingguo, you have such a sweet mouth~ Auntie is old enough to be your grandmother."

Hearing her words, Little Apple shook his head and said, "Grandma has white hair."

Meng Xian couldn't help laughing, "Little Apple's target is the dean's grandmother, right?"

Little Apple nodded his head.

"That's true, but we are small and it's easy for us to be stepped on with so many people coming and going here. Good boy, Apple, can you change places with your aunt?" Meng Xian said in a soft voice.

Little Apple thought about it, looked at Luo Qianyun who had said the same thing before, and then nodded, then reached out to Meng Xian for a hug.

Meng Xian picked up Xiao Pingguo and went into the house. Luo Qianyun followed them to a place specially for children to play.

After Meng Xian put Xiao Pingguo down, she walked over to Luo Qianyun and said, "Qianyun, I never had the chance to ask you, were you okay in the welfare home during those years?"

"Don't worry, the welfare home where I live is very good, there's no chaos or bad things going on. The director is also very caring towards us. If I grew up there, I probably wouldn't be that bad, but studying medicine would be too much of a challenge." Luo Qianyun said.

"When we get back, I will definitely visit your grandmother, the dean." Meng Xian said with a smile.

"No, she passed away three years ago." Luo Qianyun said.

"Then we have to go to the Luo family, right?" Meng Xian asked.

Thinking of Luo's father and mother, Luo Qianyun felt a little depressed, "You can go, but there is no need to do it now."

Hearing this, Meng Xian was a little confused, "Is the Luo family good to you?"

"Well, they raised me. But other than that, they wanted me to marry my brother and they also drugged me." Luo Qianyun said bluntly, making Meng Xian turn pale.
