When she woke up again, the man was no longer in bed.
She straightened her clothes and went outside, only to find him sitting back down at his desk, back to his original posture.
Why is it that I always end up getting completely taken advantage of?
Song Xingyao vowed never to come to Tiansheng to see him again.
However, Fu Siming's expression did not look good.
The stack of documents beside him was much taller than it had been that morning.
"Fu Siming?"
"You're awake?" He typed on the keyboard, then stood up, his expression slightly grave.
"What's wrong?"
...
Fu Siming looked at her without saying a word, but instead stood in front of her and helped her adjust her clothes.
"Was that pill taken from the orphanage?" Fu Siming asked.
"How...how did you know?!" It was Song Xingyao's turn to show a surprised expression.
He led her to the office chair, his slender fingers hovering over the pause button.
"Fu Siming? What kind of medicine is that?"
A large screen displays clear video footage from the vehicle's camera.
Song Xingyao didn't know what he wanted her to see until Sun Jiming appeared on screen with several prominent entrepreneurs.
They walked into Liangyan together, and then Sun Jiming came out alone.
The scene quickly cuts to the angle of another door, and there's Xiaowen!
Xiaowen was led out of Liangyan through the back door by a man, who held her timidly in his arms.
She looked up and glanced at Fu Siming.
She vaguely knew what Fu Siming had found out, and a growing unease rose in her chest.
The man was very close to her, and the faint sandalwood scent emanating from him made her feel somewhat at ease.
"Keep watching." He manipulated the screen, still at the same angle, showing a group of men in black leading several young girls into Liangyan.
Fortunately, the image was clear enough and magnified, and she recognized the girl in the lead after a little scrutiny.
!
"Fu Siming! It's her! Why?"
Song Xingyao was a little excited and quickly pressed the pause button.
The knowing look on the man's face put Song Xingyao's mind at ease.
"These children are from an orphanage. They were sent to Liangyan to work as paid companions, right?"
Her voice was soft, with a hint of disbelief in it.
Fu Siming nodded.
The office fell silent.
While Song Xingyao was still in shock, she heard Fu Siming's even colder voice: "Perhaps the orphanage, even the children who weren't sent away, couldn't escape either."
Song Xingyao recalled the exquisite makeup that didn't suit the age of those girls when she first met them.
I recall the child's hesitant and uneasy manner today.
"Fu Siming, that..."
"It's a birth control pill, and a specially made one at that, not the kind that's available on the market. It's a strong hormonal drug, and long-term use can not only prevent them from getting pregnant, but also cause uterine atrophy."
Song Xingyao covered her mouth, listening incredulously as he finished speaking.
What do these people want to do? They're just children!
Shock followed by anger.
"Then... what should we do?" Her mind went blank, and for a moment she could only ask this question.
He knew that Song Xingyao had always wanted to investigate the truth, but the truth, once it was laid bare before him, was cruelly unacceptable.
He pulled her into his arms and said, "Song Xingyao, listen to me. You still need to go to the orphanage as usual. Don't arouse suspicion. Liu Shanshan was sent by Sun Jiming to keep an eye on those children. Don't have any contact with her alone. I'll take care of it. I'll figure something out."
Song Xingyao wrapped her arms around his and nestled in his chest, nodding mechanically.
His embrace made me feel safe and secure.
Although I want to bring Sun Jiming to justice right now, after calming down, I realized that it was all speculation and there was almost no evidence!
Fu Siming drove her back to the Fu residence and watched her get out of the car in a daze, heading towards the Fu family's old house.
He regretted it a little. Knowing that this matter would have such a huge impact, why did he have to let her know everything at once?
He got out of the car, walked quickly to Song Xingyao's side, and pulled her into his arms.
I heard her sobbing in my arms.
The man's embrace made her instantly lose control, like a dam being flipped, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably!
“Fu Siming…how could they? How…how could they? They’re just a group of children…why?”
The cries mixed with accusations reached his ears, making him feel both heartache and annoyance.
She was incredibly empathetic, but he knew that she mostly blamed herself for not being able to help her.
His large hand gently stroked her back.
The two of them were now less than 20 meters away from the Fu family's house, trying to soothe each other's unease.
Until Song Xingyao stopped crying.
He leaned in and smelled her red, tear-filled eyes. "Song Xingyao, I never knew you could cry so much!"
"..."
She wanted to argue, but seeing his shirt soaked with tears, she avoided his gaze.
"...I'm going in, you...you should go back now!"
She reached out and pushed him away, then quickly ran back to her room.
Through the window, she saw Fu Siming still standing there, his dark figure bathed in a halo of light.
She thought that just the sight of this man standing there was enough to make her feel at ease.
Song Xingyao only heard about Li Xinyi's hospitalization from Luo Luo and her gossipy friends when she returned to the hospital the next day.
But when I saw Li Xinyi's condition in the ward, I realized how badly she had been injured.
The nurse was changing her dressing at that moment.
Grotesque wounds crawled across her long, fair legs.
"this……"
"You've arrived?" Li Xinyi looked up and saw that the person who came was Song Xingyao, who didn't look like she was seriously injured at all.
The nurses left them the space and carried out the tray of cleaning and disinfecting medicine.
I can't bear to see her like this. She was perfectly fine just a few days ago, how could something like this happen?
Song Xingyao wanted to ask something, but seeing Sun Hui beside her, she didn't say anything.
Not long after the nurse left, Yes came in. The ward was right next to his office, so he could check on the patient's condition at any time.
The place had been vacant for a long time, but when Li Xinyi moved in, everyone assumed that Ye Si moved in because she was the Mrs. Sun that people talked about.
Only Yes knew why he wanted her to stay here.
Li Xinyi, having arranged to meet Song Xingyao, spoke to the man who had just entered, "Dr. Ye, excuse me, could you please take Xiaohui out for a moment? I have some things I'd like to discuss with Xingyao alone."
"Hmm..." He didn't react much, and took Sun Hui's hand and walked outside.
Until only the two of them were left in the room.
Li Xinyi was still worried.
Song Xingyao took out her phone and handed it over.
When it was returned, there was an extra name in the memo.
Who is this?
She nodded, asked no further questions, and put her phone away.
The two chatted for a while longer, and Song Xingyao said she would come to see her again next time.
Unexpectedly, as he was leaving, he ran into Sun Jiming coming into the house.
An unfriendly expression lingered on the other person.
