CHAPTER XXXVI
After Xiao Jinluo and Li Junmo sat down, their eyes looked at the children in the distance. Xiao Jinluo even liked this place a little. She has been a child who is afraid of loneliness since she was a child, and having so many children in the orphanage is not another kind of happiness!
"Luo'er!" Li Junmo interrupted Xiao Jinluo's thoughts, Xiao Jinluo turned her gaze back to look at Li Junmo, this was the first time she had looked at him seriously since she was discharged from the hospital.
"Remember the first time you came to the orphanage?" Xiao Jinluo shook his head, and Li Junmo continued.
"When you first arrived, you were like a frightened fawn, and no one could approach you. You often hide in the corner alone, and you don't even dare to come out to eat with everyone. I'm always in charge of bringing you food, and slowly you stop refusing me. Later, you followed behind me every day and called me Brother Jun Mo. ”
Li Junmo said very emotionally, and this emotion also infected Xiao Jinluo.
"You must have been very important in her heart, so later your indifference to her made her lose the courage to live." Xiao Jinluo muttered unconsciously.
"Luo'er, what did you say?" Li Junmo opened his eyes wide in disbelief and saw Xiao Jinluo ask.
"Nothing! Did I really seduce you? ”
Li Junmo's face turned red all of a sudden. No more talking.
Looking at Li Junmo's expression, Xiao Jinluo probably understood. At least Xiao Jinluo may have done something out of the ordinary.
"Luo'er, am I still your brother Jun Mo?" Li Junmo asked expectantly.
Xiao Jinluo thought, if it was Xiao Jinluo in the past, I don't know how happy I would be at this moment. But she is no longer the Xiao Jinluo she used to be.
"Didn't you already believe the gossip that was circulating at school? We're no longer kids, and now we have our own lives. The dead will never be recovered! ”
Li Junmo's face turned pale after hearing Xiao Jinluo's words.
"But I still want to protect you all the time!"
"I'm grown up, and I don't need protection anymore. In the future you will meet someone who needs your protection, but that is not me! ”
"Luo'er, maybe I did something to make you sad, but there is a reason for that, you deceived me first! Can't you forgive me? ”
"I just want to leave behind the baggage of the past and live a good life!" Xiao Jinluo's eyes were full of determination. After saying that, he stood up and walked over to the children who were playing happily, and played with them like crazy.
Xiao Jinluo didn't know when Li Junmo left. She stayed at the orphanage and had a meal with the children. Before leaving, the director took out a sum of money for her.
She finally asked the doubts she had always put in her heart.
"Principal, does every child in the orphanage have so much living expenses? Is our orphanage well funded? ”
The director looked at Xiao Jinluo for a while and said, "Xiao Luo, you have really grown up. I won't hide it from you. You may not remember how you got to the orphanage. ”
"It was such a cold winter, and I saw you sleeping wrapped in a blanket at the entrance of the orphanage. You have a letter on you. ”
"And a bank card. The letter has your name and the password to the card, which is your birthday. And explained that half of the money in the card was donated to the orphanage. The extra money will be given to you slowly after you live independently. When you reach adulthood, the card will be returned to you. ”
"Then I checked the money in the card. A full five million, also lost this money, and the orphanage has not had financial difficulties in recent years. Originally, I wanted to wait until you were 18 before giving you the money. Now that you've asked, I'll give you the card now! ”
After listening to the principal's words, Xiao Jinluo was completely stunned, happy or shocked. Inexplicably, he went from a poor kid who had to bargain for even a train ticket to a millionaire.
It came too suddenly.
But soon she regained her emotions. I thought in my heart: "Xiao Jinluo, Xiao Jinluo, you are still a person who has lived for 26 years, and this money shocked you?" In 10 years, this money is only a house of more than 100 square meters in Furong City. ”
Seeing that Xiao Jinluo was not excited by the sudden sum of money, but was so calm. The principal felt that he had made the right decision.
Xiao Jinluo held the card, his mind full of doubts.
She wondered what the original Xiao Jinluo's identity was, judging from this money. It was ruled out that her parents abandoned her for financial reasons. So what is the reason why parents can cruelly abandon their children?
After thinking about it for a long time, I can't think of a clue, so let's put this matter aside for the time being.
After two days and two nights of turbulence, Xiao Jinluo finally came to K City.
Xiao Jinluo took a few deep breaths of air. Ten years ago, the air in K City was much cleaner. This is the city where she has lived for seventeen years, and every street and alley is so familiar. Every flower and tree wafts the smell of home.
Xiao Jinluo has never been so anxious when he goes home, and he has never been so anxious when he sees his parents. She had many, many imaginaries in her mind about what it would be like to meet her parents. Thinking about this, he seemed to forget that he was here, and his real self ten years ago still existed!
Xiao Jinluo walked through the familiar streets. The streets are narrow but not crowded. The faces of the various snack bars, fruit shops, and vegetable shops are all so familiar. In the past, when she passed by the door of these shops, they always greeted Xiao Jinluo warmly.
Xiao Jinluo walked over one shop after another, and she stopped at the door of a snack bar that crossed the bridge rice noodles. This is what she has loved since she was a child.
"Girl, you want to eat some sprinkles, come in!" An enthusiastic voice sounded, it was Aunt Zhang who lived in the same unit. Xiao Jinluo was about to open his mouth happily.
Only then did I suddenly remember that I was no longer my original self.
"I want a 10-piece cross-bridge rice noodle!"
"Sit down first, and I'll be right away!" Aunt Zhang greeted with a smile.
Xiao Jinluo was in the position where he used to sit every time he came, a position by the door against the wall. She always likes to sit in this position, and while eating, she can observe the leisurely or hurried pedestrians on the roadside.
Soon, a large bowl of chicken soup and stacks of side dishes, as well as a bowl of rice noodles, were served.
"Girl, look at your face, you're not from here! Have you ever eaten this? Put the meat in a bowl first, then add vegetables and rice noodles! ”
Aunt Zhang is still so warm-hearted and has a good service attitude.
"Okay, thank you, Auntie!" Xiao Jinluo said with a sweet smile.
As usual, she looked out as she ate. As soon as she put the first bite of rice noodles in her mouth, she froze.
Because the family of three who are walking into the store at this time, aren't they their parents or themselves ten years ago?
If you were 10 years ago, who is you now?
She just looked at them blankly, ten years ago, she held her parents' hands affectionately, sat down and leaned on her mother's arms for a long time.
"The older Xiao Luo gets, the more sticky he becomes! What a good boy! Aunt Zhang said after seeing it.
"That's right, especially in the past few months, this kid is like a different person, he didn't make love to us before, and now he can't wait to stick to us twenty-four hours a day! The older you get, the more you look like a child! Xiao Jinluo's mother stroked Xiao Jinluo's hair as she spoke. With a happy smile on his face.
Wait a minute...... What's wrong. When did I stick to my parents like this? Xiao Jinluo has been an independent child since he was a child, he lived in junior high school, went to other places in college, and met his parents less often after work.
It seemed to feel Xiao Jinluo's gaze.
Ten years ago, he raised his head from his mother's arms and looked at Xiao Jinluo.
