Chapter 1: Encounters in Welfare Homes

Next Chapter

There were 8 volunteers from other colleges and universities. In fact, there is nothing in particular that needs to be done, just to play with toys and read storybooks with the children.

Lin Xi brought some snacks bought from abroad, and the young children circled around her.

"What's your name, sister?" asked a little girl sweetly as she took a cookie.

"Lin Xi. She patted the girl on the head and smiled in reply.

"Sister, we make games, I want to play with lost handkerchiefs. The four or five-year-old girl said that it was innocent and romantic, and Lin Xi felt very good, without the gloom of the children in the orphanage.

But not every child is like her. Children who are born with a disability, or who are deaf or have poor nerves. There are also those who are reluctant to communicate with volunteers, hide in the corner and read by themselves, and are wary and reluctant to let people approach.

She looked at it with pity and laughed at herself for having so many hearts, but she still walked towards the little girl who was cowering in the corner with a bag of snacks. Sure enough, the little girl felt the figure and looked up at her vigilantly from the book.

Lin Xi bent his knees and sat down, meeting the little girl's eye level, and put the pink strawberry-flavored snack in front of her. The little girl looked like she was nine or ten years old, and she glanced at the snacks and didn't take them.

Lin Xi's hand hung in the air, and she saw that the sight suddenly drifted behind her, her eyes lit up, she quickly got up with her hands on the ground, passed by Lin Xi's side, and ran away.

Turning her head, the girl spread her arms and threw herself into the arms of a man. Maybe the girl is thin, or the man is tall, the little girl is only up to his waist, and she looks up and is excited around him, without the previous indifference and guard, and happily calls "brother".

Dark jeans and a simple black short-sleeved T-shirt, light wheat complexion, smooth and firm arm muscles, and broad shoulders.

The man seemed to notice her, and for a moment when his eyes met, Lin Xi didn't dodge, opened his mouth slightly and said "ah" gently. The other person looked away first and sat around the small table with the children.

Lin Xi held his bent knees and wanted to stand up. Although she didn't squat for long, the congestion still made her dizzy for a moment, and she walked to the window to lean on, and the weeds and wildflowers in the flower bed outside the door grew wantonly in the sun.

Behind him, there are children playing, volunteers telling stories and piano playing, all together chaotic and chaotic. She thought that a year ago, in the night, her heart was already heartbroken, but she couldn't cry.

and the man's sentence, "The people who are worse than you in this world are still alive." ”

The corner of the clothes was suddenly pulled by a small force, and when she turned around, the little girl who was going to play with the handkerchief ran back to her, dragging the corners of her clothes, with a soft and cute expression, "Sister, can you also give me this pink snack?"

Lin Xi bent down, scratched her little nose, and replaced it with a soft voice to talk to the child, "Yes, but don't eat too much, it will cause tooth decay." ”

The little girl took the snack, smiled sweetly, and replied in a crisp voice, "It's not me who eats, I'm going to give it to my brother." With that, he ran away.

Following the direction she ran away, Lin Xi looked at the man again. He was sitting at the edge of the small white round table, surrounded by five or six orphanage children, and a pair of long legs curled up on the children's chair seemed very abrupt. The heroic face is full of warmth at this time, and even the outline is much softer.

The eyebrows and eyes are deep, and the face is handsome and vivid in the sun, no longer a shadow in the night.

Lin Xi was distracted, and was interrupted by Han Yuan's hands appearing in front of him, "Look at the handsome guy?" Seeing that Lin Xi came back to his senses, Han Yuan leaned against the window with her and looked at the man, "Wow! It's really handsome, do you want to ask for a phone or something?"

Han Yuan naturally grabbed her arm, and Lin Xi's body suddenly stiffened. Before high school, she was also a member of the bathroom with her little sisters holding hands, but the four years abroad made her gradually reject holding hands with the same sex, not to mention that she and Han Yuan had only known each other for less than a week.

"I'll just take a look, if you're interested, why don't you ask for it?"

"You said before that you don't live on campus, so where do you live?" Han Yuan also said, quickly changing the topic. She met Lin Xi at the meeting of graduate students, and after sitting down, she found that the girls around her were so beautiful, and when she couldn't help but glance at her a few more times, Lin Xi spoke up first, and the two learned that Lin Xi was one of the few freshmen who did not live in the school dormitory.

"I was used to living alone, so I found a small apartment outside the school. Lin Xi only felt that the arm held by Han Yuan was getting stiffer and stiffer, and he wanted to get out quietly.

Foreign same-sex friends don't like to hold hands, Xu is more independent with them, and he is afraid of being recognized as homosexual, and gradually Lin Xi is not used to unnecessary physical contact with the same sex he has newly met.

Lin Xi watched the little girl jump up and run to the man's side, and her little hand brought him the pink snacks. The man had a pair of thick eyebrows and tenderness in his eyes, and tore the package for her to feed. The little girl took one out of the bag and fed it to him, and the man opened his mouth to eat it. When chewing, the gills bite, the jawline is as clear as a knife, and the swallowing action rolls with the Adam's apple.
