Chapter 143 What a scumbag
"I'm curious about this place and plan to go around and have a look." Xu Yangyang smiled, withdrew her hand, and stood beside Jiang Linan.
Teacher Li glanced at Xu Yangyang suspiciously, then finally fixed his gaze on Jiang Runan. "It's quite desolate here, and the welfare home covers a large area. Don't wander around, or you might get lost."
"Okay." Jiang Linan agreed. Somehow, he always felt that Teacher Li looked at him strangely.
If they were caught by the people from the welfare home, they would attract attention if they continued to walk inside, so the two of them discussed it and decided to go back to the room to rest first.
"Do you think the director really went to the hospital?" Xu Yangyang asked on the way back. "I have a feeling he wouldn't just leave us here with only a few aunts watching over us."
"Whether he went there or not, we can only believe it for now." Jiang Linan took Xu Yangyang's hand, and the two came to the area in front where the children were playing.
At this time, the children had been taken away by their aunt to rest. It was indeed getting late, and several teachers who had just arrived here also returned to their rooms.
Perhaps because there are more people than before, the welfare home is much more popular than before.
It's funny to say, the orphanage is full of children, it should be a lively and popular place.
But under the dean's management, this place has become lifeless, and the only energetic people are adults.
At night, Xu Yangyang tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Once she closed her eyes, all she could see were the scars on the children's bodies and their lifeless faces.
"Go to sleep." Suddenly, Jiang Runan's big hands covered Xu Yangyang's eyes, making her fall into gentle silence.
"I'm worried about those children." Xu Yangyang pursed her lips and snuggled into Jiang Runan's arms. Only by being by his side did Xu Yangyang feel a little safe.
"Think of it this way. Before you came, the children didn't even have any hope of survival. Now that you are here, you can save more children. This is a good thing." Jiang Linan hugged Xu Yangyang and said in a low voice.
"Convince myself? I can't do it." Xu Yangyang has a strong personality, but when encountering things related to children, she will still mobilize the maternal side of her body.
Besides, the situation of the children here is heartbreaking for anyone who sees it.
Under Jiang Linan's persuasion, Xu Yangyang finally closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
She was very tired after spending the whole day scheming against the people in the welfare home.
The director, as Auntie had said, seemed to be gone from the orphanage. But the children there didn't seem any more lively after the director's disappearance. Instead, they seemed more reserved, caught in a kind of fear.
Xu Yangyang sat on a bench in the yard, looking at the children from the shade of the trees. "They seemed even more frightened after the director left the orphanage."
"What you mean is..." Jiang Linan couldn't guess what Xu Yangyang was thinking. In his eyes, the behavior of these people was no different from before.
However, the attentive Xu Yangyang noticed something amiss: "Look at the expressions of those children. Although they are playing as usual under the guidance of that teacher, their bodies are even stiffer than before. It seems that they know where the dean has gone."
"Why don't you ask?" Jiang Linan felt that Xu Yangyang was overthinking it.
"No." Xu Yangyang shook her head, her eyes seemingly inadvertently fixed on Teacher Li. "She's been staring at us since we sat down here. Even though she looks like she's playing with the kids, her gaze is always on us."
Jiang Linan observed Teacher Li for a while and found something wrong.
At this moment, Xu Yangyang nudged Jiang Lunnan with her elbow: "Teacher Li seemed very shy when you looked over."
Suddenly, a look of disgust flashed across Jiang Runan's face, as if he thought of Bai Ranyin.
Xu Yangyang suddenly smiled: "This is a manifestation of your charm, why are you not happy?"
"Why are you so happy? The person I like has always been you. Other women had better not get close to me!" Jiang Linan was really fed up with these women, each of whom came to him one after another.
All he wanted was Xu Yangyang, and he wished these women were as far away from him as possible!
But Xu Yangyang seemed to have thought of some strange tricks, and whispered in Jiang Runan's ear: "I think this is a good opportunity. The aunt here trusts Teacher Li very much. If you can get her, it will be very convenient for us to do anything in the future."
"I won't." Jiang Linan refused without a second thought. He couldn't take the initiative to sell his body to seduce a woman!
"No, you're the only one I can rely on now. Didn't you tell me that you would listen to me before you came to the welfare home?" Xu Yangyang pouted pretending to be unhappy. Jiang Linan knew that she was pretending, but he couldn't refuse her coquettishness.
While Xu Yangyang was saying this, her eyes were also on Teacher Li. Seeing that she was unhappy because of her approach to Jiang Runan, she was even more certain that she fell in love with Jiang Runan at first sight.
In other words, he fell in love with Jiang Lunnan's appearance at first sight.
Jiang Lunnan still disagreed: "Let's postpone it for now. It seems that the director won't be back in the short term. We can take this opportunity to walk around the welfare home more. Maybe we can find the location of the children."
After failing to persuade Jiang Linan, Xu Yangyang had to give up and took the initiative to go to Teacher Li to see if she could ask anything.
"Where did Teacher Li go before? Why did she give up her job at the welfare home?"
Teacher Li only retracted her gaze from Jiang Lunnan after Xu Yangyang approached. "I have children at home, and although the dean is a nice person, he can't afford to pay her. It's a huge pressure on my husband, so I'm resigning and looking for another job."
According to Teacher Li, after leaving the welfare home, she worked as a tutor for some wealthy families and earned a lot of money.
"Being a tutor is more flexible, and I can also teach online. This way I have time to go back to the welfare home to help the director take care of the children." Teacher Li smiled gently, "The director and the aunts must be very tired taking care of the children. I understand, so I rushed back as soon as possible."
Xu Yangyang saw with her own eyes that Teacher Li was angry because she was close to Jiang Linan, and she pinched the child's flesh hard.
Otherwise, I would really believe what she said!
"Really? Is it the same for other people?" Xu Yangyang asked curiously because she didn't see anyone else who came back with Teacher Li.
"These kids need to learn too. The other two teachers are preparing lessons." Teacher Li said with regret, "Ever since we left here, the dean hasn't been able to call on other teachers, so these kids have fallen behind in their studies."
"You guys have worked so hard..." Xu Yangyang complimented Teacher Li while looking at the children around her.
