After she left, the office fell silent once again.
Li Ruo took out her phone and pointed to the photo she had taken earlier.
Although the photo was taken in a bit of a rush, the woman's appearance is still clearly visible.
After staring at the photo for a moment, Li Ruo sent it to someone.
This person is the private investigator she hired when she was investigating Fu Zhiqing.
Shortly after she sent the message, the other party replied.
"Are you investigating this person's personal information?"
"right."
"Okay, within three days!"
Seeing that the other party agreed so readily, Li Ruo smiled slightly and put away her phone.
The following days were unusually peaceful. Three days later, Li Ruo received the CEO of Dingsheng Company. After discussions, the two parties immediately and smoothly launched their cooperation.
Not only that, but things have gone so smoothly these past few days that even Li Ruo finds it unbelievable, as if all those who had been in her way had disappeared.
This peaceful life continued until the weekend morning.
After the alarm clock rang, a hand emerged from under the covers and picked up the still-vibrating phone.
Li Ruo glanced at the memo with sleepy eyes and found that it said she was going to the Happiness Welfare Home for an activity today.
Li Ruo was still a little dazed, but the moment she saw the words, she suddenly woke up.
She was so busy lately that she almost forgot about it.
Indeed, she and Wen Huaiyan had previously agreed to attend this event, hoping to see if that man would show up.
Thinking this, Li Ruo jumped up and quickly went to the dressing room.
After all the trouble she had gone through, just as she was about to leave, the unpleasantness between her and Wen Huaiyan flashed through her mind.
Although she had long ago decided to thank Wen Huaiyan, she didn't know if it was because she was too busy or because she felt a little resistant.
Even now, she hasn't mustered the courage to make that call.
What if she went today, but Wen Huaiyan didn't show up? Wouldn't that be...?
Thinking this, Li Ruo couldn't help but frown.
But in the blink of an eye, he gritted his teeth and said, "Never mind..."
This matter has nothing to do with Wen Huaiyan. Even if he doesn't come, she can't just stop investigating.
Having made up her mind, Li Ruo didn't hesitate any longer and went straight out the door.
Soon, she drove to the entrance of the Happiness Welfare Home.
To her surprise, the number of cars parked at the entrance far exceeded her expectations; they were packed together.
Seeing this scene, Li Ruo couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement. Helpless, she could only drive the car to a nearby parking lot.
She had just stepped out of the car when she came face to face with Wen Huaiyan. They were only separated by one car and stared at each other.
The moment he saw Li Ruo, a dark glint flashed involuntarily in the man's eyes.
Li Ruo happened to notice this unusual expression and lowered her eyes.
Soon, the man walked over from the car with his hands in his pockets.
However, the tall figure suddenly stopped the moment he passed Li Ruo: "Let's go."
Upon hearing this, Li Ruo paused slightly, then let out a soft breath and walked side by side with him out of the parking lot.
As they approached the orphanage, the atmosphere between the two gradually became strange.
After glancing at Wen Huaiyan, Li Ruo noticed his still cold expression and pursed her lips. "Thank you so much for what happened to Mom. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid..."
Hearing Li Ruo's thanks, Wen Huaiyan's expression didn't change much, but the slight tenderness deep in his eyes betrayed his thoughts.
He hummed a few times without speaking, but when he looked up, a hint of tenderness flashed across his face.
After the two entered the welfare home, Li Ruo finally understood why there were so many cars outside.
Looking at the successful entrepreneurs standing inside, many of whom are big names who have been interviewed on television, Li Ruo couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Seeing this, Wen Huaiyan couldn't help but sneer: "They're all just good at putting on a show, they don't do anything practical."
Hearing the man's mockery, Li Ruo glanced at him in surprise.
Sure enough, when she turned around, she found that many reporters were interviewing these successful people with cameras and microphones.
Watching their every move, Li Ruo pursed her lips.
For some reason, she had a premonition that the man might not come again.
After all, such a large-scale event would easily be photographed.
At this moment, the director came out of the welfare home and was very surprised to see Li Ruo and the others: "You've come."
Li Ruo smiled and nodded, then asked, "Dean, are they also here for today's event?"
Upon hearing this, the dean became somewhat embarrassed and smiled, "Yes, quite a few people have come today."
Noticing his discomfort, Li Ruo smiled slightly and changed the subject: "What kind of activities are there today?"
When the topic came up, the dean relaxed considerably: "Today we've prepared a variety of activities, including making lanterns, paper-cutting, and dumplings."
