Chapter 16: Innocent Scumbag (16)

"Nothing, just... A funny joke came to mind. ”

Qiu Gujun restrained a little smile and replied to Chen An seriously.

"Here it is."

Chen An pointed to the building in front of them.

-Umewon Welfare Center-

As soon as the two got out of the car and looked up, they could see the name of the welfare home, and those five words flashed straight into Qiu Gujun's eyes.

Chen An took Qiu Gujun into the welfare home, and gave him science as he walked.

“... Don't you think it's strange to call a welfare home called Mei Yuan? ”

Chen An chuckled and continued.

"This Mei Yuan is actually the name of the founder/wife of this welfare home, and it is also the name of the current director."

"It is said that after the death of the first director, the orphanage was put into the hands of his wife."

"Actually, I know all of this."

Qiu Gujun's head was lowered all the way, and he slowly raised it, and his eyes were faintly red.

"My father brought me here when I was 10 years old."

Qiu Gujun's face showed nostalgia, "At that time, I was both picky and naughty, I should be the bear child that everyone calls now." ”

"Before my father brought me here, I was still picking up all kinds of bad food at home, but..."

He looked at Chen An and smiled, "When I got here, I realized that there are still some children in this world who don't have parents. ”

"My father also told me that during the most difficult days of the home, it would take days for the children to take a bath, or should I say simply wipe it."

There was a hint of admiration in his eyes, "My father is the greatest man I think in the world. ”

However, he saved many people, but in the end he failed to save himself.

Chen An stepped forward and hugged Qiu Gujun, "Your father is great. ”

Just two days ago, she accompanied her parents to the restaurant for dinner, and took time to go to the toilet.

But when passing by a box that was not closed, he overheard Qiu Gujun's name.

Her steps couldn't help but pause, and at this moment she heard the reason why Qiu Gujun had become weak and timid.

During this period, she also heard his father's name, and when she looked it up on the Internet, she found out that Qiu Gujun's father.

It turned out to be the firefighting hero Qiu Kazumasa who was simulcast in the newspaper and the news station five years ago.

Qiu Gujun, who was only eleven years old at the time, was only a fifth-grade elementary school student, and he couldn't accept the news of his father's death at all.

From then on, it was like falling into the circle I had drawn for myself, and the painting was a prison.

Neither willing to come out, nor willing to let others come close.

"Since you've been here before, let's go and see if there are any people you are familiar with in the welfare home, okay?"

Chen An smiled, and pulled Qiu Gujun to some places where the children played.

And one of the children who knew Qiu Gujun shouted uncertainly, "Brother Qiu? ”

Qiu Gujun looked in the direction of the voice, which was an eight-year-old boy in a wheelchair with a blanket on his legs.

"Xiaozhi?"

"Brother Qiu, it's really you."

Xiao Zhi pushed the wheelchair over with his hand, and said with a bright smile, "Why hasn't Brother Qiu come for so long, Xiao Zhi hasn't seen Brother Qiu for a long time, and he almost didn't recognize it just now." ”

Chen An stood on the side a little farther away from Qiu Gujun, and did not interject into the topic of the two.

She watched from the sidelines with crooked eyebrows, and a smile appeared on her face from time to time.

Xiao Zhi told Qiu Gujun about the changes that have taken place in the welfare home in the past five years, and when several of his former good friends were adopted.
