Grandma Xu was sitting on the sofa when she saw Qin Yubo coming back with Qin Huai and Xiao Liyue.
She excitedly stepped forward to check and said, "Erya! Are you okay? Let me see if you are hurt anywhere."
Xiao Liyue held her old hand tightly and smiled: "I'm fine, grandma, don't worry."
Grandma Xu patted the back of her hand happily and said with a smile, "Okay... I'm relieved that you're okay. You must be hungry! Grandma will cook for you." After saying that, she walked towards the kitchen.
Mother Qin immediately stopped her and said, "Grandma, I'll let Xiao Zhao do it. You can chat with Erya."
Granny Xu nodded, and pulled Xiao Liyue to sit on the sofa, then handed her the strawberries and cherries: "You must be starving, Erya, come and eat some fruit to fill your stomach first."
Xiao Liyue shook her head and said, "I'm not hungry, grandma, the police station provides meals."
Mother Qin thought she was embarrassed, so she said softly, "You're welcome, Erya, just treat this place as your home and eat whatever you want."
Seeing that they misunderstood her as being shy, Xiao Liyue had no choice but to take a strawberry, say thank you, and start eating.
Mother Qin looked at Xiao Liyue. She was wearing the dress she used to wear. She looked very beautiful, quiet and polite. She could tell from her face that she was a good girl, so she liked her very much.
After the meal was ready, Xiao Liyue's dining etiquette at the table was even more standard than Qin Huai's. She ate calmly and in an orderly manner. Finally, she wiped the corners of her mouth gracefully and put the napkin aside the bowl.
"Thank you for your hospitality and your help today. I, Xiaoyue, will return the 500,000 yuan in compensation in full one day."
Qin Huai looked at her with admiration. He didn't expect her to be so strong-willed. You know, an ordinary family may not even have a savings of 500,000 yuan. For an orphan like her who has never been to school, it is simply a fantasy to earn 500,000 yuan.
Looking at her serious look, Qin Yubo admired Xiao Liyue very much, so he spoke.
"Actually, we want to ask your opinion on something. Grandma likes you very much, and we like you too, so why don't you live with us from now on and we will adopt you."
Mother Qin also smiled and said, "Yes! We want to adopt you and live with us in the future. Are you willing?"
Qin Huai saw that his parents wanted to adopt her, but he didn't care. After all, her life experience was indeed pitiful. Besides, his family could afford to raise her. At the same time, he could still learn from her openly in the future. How could he kick someone away with one kick?
Grandma Xu held her hand and said kindly, "Erya, it's too dangerous for a little girl to be outside alone. You are still young, don't you want to go to school? Listen to grandma and live with us."
Xiao Liyue knew their good intentions and that they were all kind-hearted people, but she still rejected their kindness.
"Thank you, Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin. I have hands and feet, and I can make money on my own. I will definitely go to school, so you don't have to worry about me, grandma."
When Grandma Xu heard that she was unwilling, a look of sadness appeared on her face.
Qin Huai was shocked to see that she refused. He could not think of any reason why she would refuse. If she lived in his house, she could go to school and would not have to suffer anymore. Why would she not want to do that?
So he stood up and said, "Are you stupid? If my family adopts you, you can go to school and no longer have to live the hard life you had before. Any smart person would agree to it. Why did you refuse?"
Qin Yubo glanced at him and said, "How do you talk like that, Xiao Huai? Sit down quickly."
Qin Huai sat down angrily: "Dad, I'm telling the truth! She can't tell good from bad."
Mother Qin did not blame her for refusing. Instead, she smiled gently and said, "Well, Erya, can I ask you why you don't want to?"
"Nothing, I just don't like to rely on others. I can support myself, so I don't want to trouble you. Besides, we are not related, so you have no obligation to support me."
Seeing her answer like this, they no longer mentioned adopting her.
When she was about to leave, Qin Yubo handed her a bank card: "There is a hundred thousand in this card, and the password is six sixes. If you want to go back to City A, the money in here will be enough for you to spend for a while. Don't rush to pay it back, just pay it back to us when you have money. It's okay if you don't pay it back, so don't refuse, otherwise grandma will worry."
Xiao Liyue looked at Grandma Xu, took the bank card from Qin Yubo, thanked him, and was then taken out of the villa area by the driver.
Looking in the direction she left, Grandma Xu showed a sad look. She didn't know how long it would take for them to see each other again.
Qin's thoughtful mother noticed her strange mood and quickly comforted her: "Grandma, if you miss Erya, we will bring her to the Imperial City to see you."
"Okay." Grandma Xu said with satisfaction.
Qin Huai could no longer learn kung fu with Xiao Liyue, so he went back to his room and played games out of boredom.
Qin Yubo also went back to the company. After all, he had been busy with Grandma Xu and Xiao Liyue's matters for the past two days, so it was time to go back to the company.
Xiao Liyue asked the driver to take her to the bus stop and then got off the car.
Her appearance stood out in the crowd. A beautiful girl wearing an exaggerated floral dress and two big braids, she would definitely attract everyone's attention.
Young people have basically seen her on the trending search list, so they can't help but take a few more glances at her.
However, Xiao Liyue didn't care about other people's stares and comments at all, but took the bus to the bustling street.
Seeing a mobile phone store, he went in and bought a mobile phone for over 5,000 yuan. After applying for a credit card, he went to a nearby clothing store to buy a few clothes and a few pairs of shoes. Then he carried his small bag and checked into a nearby hotel.
After booking a king-size bed room, Xiao Liyue put down the things in her hands and went to the bathroom to wash her hair and take a good bath.
After washing and changing into clean pajamas, I lay on the soft big bed and played with my mobile phone.
Along the way, I saw many people watching videos on a certain platform on their mobile phones, so when she bought the phone, the clerk also downloaded it for her.
Just by entering her ID card and mobile phone number, Xiao Liyue logged into the video platform.
While watching videos, she saw herself on the trending search list. She clicked on the comments of the video and saw that there were quite a few people scolding her.
Although Qin Yubo had already paid the compensation to the yellow-haired woman's family on her behalf, the incident of kicking someone away was still a hot topic.
She even saw a blonde woman broadcasting live, so she curiously clicked into the live broadcast room.
Seeing her lying on the sickbed with a pale and haggard face, a group of people came to feel sorry for her and gave her various gifts to comfort her.
"Don't be afraid, Auntie. The person who hit you will be punished."
"She was so cruel at such a young age. Auntie, you must not accept her apology. People like her should be sent to jail."
"Auntie, you are so pitiful. If my mother was beaten like this, I would definitely fight back."
In the live broadcast room, a young male voice kept thanking everyone: "Thank you for the gifts, and thank you for your concern for my mother. If it weren't for your gifts, my family would not have the money to treat my mother. I am really happy that there are still so many people supporting us. Thank you very much."
