The two walked to the gate of the welfare home. Fu Xiangze looked at the decoration of the gate, which seemed to have just been renovated.
Fu Xiangze asked, "How much do you remember about these things?"
Bian Li looked at the surrounding environment, with a subtle emotion flashing in his eyes, "I don't remember, it was more than ten years ago."
However, the people inside saw them coming and came to greet them, "Who are you looking for?"
Fu Xiangze took a look and saw that it should be a staff member here. He asked politely, "Hello, are you looking for the dean?"
"The dean just went out and will be back in a while. Why don't you wait here?"
"How long will it take?"
"About 20 minutes."
"Okay, thank you."
Afterwards, the two of them found a stone bench in the yard and sat down.
Fu Xiangze asked, "Do you still remember this place?"
Bian Li shook his head, "I have forgotten everything before I was ten years old."
Fu Xiangze's eyes became a little warm, "Yeah."
"There's a basketball court over there. Let's go take a look?"
"Okay." The two of them walked over there holding hands. It was autumn now and the weather was a bit cold. The cold wind blew past Bian Li and he sniffed.
Fu Xiangze took a look and took off his vest and gave it to her. Bian Li didn't hesitate and put it on. She buried her face in his vest, which was full of his scent. She felt at ease instantly.
When Bian Li saw those children, he was touched and seemed to remember something, and his eyes became a little red.
Fu Xiangze was always quick to notice her emotions and said calmly, "If you don't want to go in later, just go in and ask."
"No, I'm not that fragile."
Fu Xiangze stood up, looked around and smiled, "So this is where you lived when you were a child."
For some reason, Bian Li didn't like this place very much. He always felt depressed and uneasy here. He walked forward and held Fu Xiangze's hand tightly.
Fu Xiangze felt her hand was very cold and put it in his pocket, holding her hand all the time, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"I just feel that it's a good thing that you are by my side now." Otherwise, I might not be able to hold on.
After a while, someone shouted from behind, "Sir, the dean is back."
"Okay, let's go over now." Fu Xiangze responded.
Fu Xiangze led Bian Li over, and when they were at the dean's door, Fu Xiangze rubbed her head soothingly, "If you feel uncomfortable, just hold your palm and you will know."
Bian Li nodded...
After entering, the dean looked at the beautiful couple in front of him with some surprise. He walked over and said kindly, "Is it Bian Li?"
Bian Li couldn't remember who this was now. "Who are you?"
"Oh, 놖 is the old dean, don't you remember 놖?"
Bian Li smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Dean, I don't remember much before I was ten years old."
What did the dean think of?
"It's okay if you don't remember. It's okay if you don't remember." At this time, the dean had tears in his eyes.
Fu Xiangze turned around and said to Bian Li, "Can you wait outside first?"
Bian Li nodded, "Okay, then hurry up."
"Um."
After Bian Li left, the dean asked Fu Xiangze, "Who are you to Bian Li?"
"He's her husband."
"Oh, well, you're all married, girl."
Fu Xiangze smiled and said, "Yes, we have been married for two years."
"Oh, that's good."
Fu Xiangze didn't beat around the bush and asked directly, "Dean, I want to know what happened when she was adopted."
The dean looked embarrassed. "She was sent back because she didn't get along well with that family. There's nothing else to it."
When Fu Xiangze is not smiling, he is actually very serious, giving people a feeling of majesty without anger. The dean looked at the outstanding man in front of him in silence.
Fu Xiangze continued, "Dean, you can't hide it."
Finally, under Fu Xiangze's earnest request, the dean said:
"In fact, Bian Li came to us when he was a little over one year old.
It was a cold winter day. When I was coming back from an errand, I passed by a trash can and heard a heart-wrenching cry next to it...
At that time, I followed the crying sound and walked closer to see that there was actually a child inside...
I don't know how long the child cried. When I went to see her, her face was already red from the cold. Next to her was her name, a letter, and some money.
The letter said that she was abandoned by her husband and did not want her child to suffer with her, so she asked kind people to help take her in. Later, she took her back to the orphanage.
He grew up in an orphanage until he was eight years old.
When she was eight years old, a Chinese couple came to adopt a child, introduced by our administrator Zhang Shen.
At that time, we were also happy, because at that time we also wanted our children to have a happy family.
놖I still remember that when the couple came over, they were dressed very elegantly. When I saw the row of children, I liked Bian Li very much.
The man said he wanted to adopt her, but she never expected that the man was actually a beast in human clothing.
During the half year that Bian Li was adopted by them, he was often beaten and kicked by him, and his wife was not spared either.
Then one day, when his wife was out and he and Bian Li were the only ones at home, he almost, almost... laid hands on the child.
Later we found out that he was a pedophile who specifically targeted children." The dean also started crying.
Then she sobbed and said, "Fortunately, the neighbor saw it and came to help rescue Bian Li. The police said that at that time, Bian Li had been shaking a fruit knife in his hand, and his whole body was trembling...
How could a child do that? She couldn't match an adult like him in terms of strength. How desperate must she be...
Later, the police took the man away and found out that he had been doing XD and helping FD. Due to long-term drug abuse, he contracted AIDS.
…
After that, Bian Li came back and had nightmares every night and refused to sleep. We took her to see a psychiatrist, who said she had mild post-traumatic stress disorder.
After she came back, she seemed to have become a different person. She didn't like to talk, always stayed alone in the dark, and even didn't like people to get close to her...
Before, a child approached her, and she later had a fight with that child. Everyone was afraid of her and didn't dare to play with her. Then her uncle came to her house and said he wanted to take her home.
It's Fang Yixing, the brother of her adoptive mother Fang Ting. Now that I see she's doing well, I feel relieved."
…
After going out, Fu Xiangze saw Bian Li standing on the basketball court. He walked over and saw that Bian Li was distracted. He hugged her from behind and whispered, "What are you thinking about?"
Bian Li trembled noticeably, then smiled and said, "It seems like you were playing here with a little boy a while ago?"
Fu Xiangze was a little surprised, "Do you still remember?"
Bian Li smiled and said, "Are you jealous?"
"A little bit, after all, you didn't remember me when you went to pick me up after we got married, and now you're actually thinking of a little boy here."
Bian Li turned around and hugged him, "You're actually bringing up the past. What about those girlfriends you mentioned dating? Are you jealous too?"
Fu Xiangze rubbed her head and said, "Nonsense."
"Are you done talking?" Bian Li was a little worried at this moment but didn't dare to show it.
"Yeah." Fu Xiangze just responded lightly.
"What did you talk about?"
"She said that she would donate a sum of money to them every year in the future. In the name of both of us."
"Why?" Bian Li's eyes suddenly turned red.
"What's wrong? I just want to thank this place for giving my wife a temporary home."
Suddenly, Bian Li stopped and hugged Fu Xiangze, and tears started to fall from his eyes...
In fact, she was very scared that he would not want her after knowing it... She never dared to show it, and kept asking herself in her heart: Should I be honest with him?
He seemed to have been carefully protecting what was deep in 놖's heart...
But how should I talk about this? If he doesn't ask, what should I say? Where should I start?
