Chapter 31: The Chosen One of Sin (5)
A sentence of "I'm here" made the cold air around Mu Xue's body gradually dissipate, she met his worried eyes, and then held his hand soothingly, and said softly: "I'm fine." ”
"Dean, do you have any other photos here?" Leng Yan asked.
The dean thought for a while and said, "We don't have one here, maybe we can ask the old dean, the old dean likes to collect old photos, maybe she still has some there." ”
"Where is the old dean now?"
"I live in the old living quarters of the orphanage. ”
"Thank you, Dean. ”
"You're welcome. ”
Leng Yan and Mu Xue said goodbye to the dean and went straight to the old living area, and they came to the old dean's house.
The old dean's hair is all white, she is too old, she speaks very slowly, she walks even slower, there is no elevator in the old living area of the orphanage, the old dean is weak, it is difficult to climb the stairs, she rarely goes out.
"You are ......" The old dean saw Leng Yan and Mu Xue, and said suspiciously.
Mu Xue helped the old dean to sit down on the chair: "Old dean, I am Mu Xue, Ankang's daughter, do you remember Ankang?"
When Ankang was mentioned, a smile appeared on the old dean's face, and when she laughed, the wrinkles on her face were piled up with a lot of folds: "Of course I know Ankang, that is a good boy, a very good child, very smart, very capable, and very kind, he is an angel......"
Listening to the old dean's praise of Ankang, Mu Xue was moved, she held the old dean's hand and asked softly: "Old dean, do you have a photo of my father when he was a child? ”
"Wait a minute, I'll look for it. The old dean stood up tremblingly and walked slowly into the bedroom.
After a while, she took out a brown paper envelope, which was very old, but very clean, and it was evident that the old dean had kept it well.
The old dean poured out the photos inside, and the old black and white photos were scattered on the table.
"Child, I'm old, my eyes are not good, you help me find it, I remember there is a photo, it was taken when your father first came, that day, he was wearing a beautiful set of clothes, but he couldn't find a home, he looked sad, in order to commemorate his arrival, we took a group photo, and also took a single photo for him. The dean recalled the past with a smile, "It was the most beautiful child I have ever seen, and I liked it at first sight, but that child, really pitiful, finally lived a good life, but died young......"
The old dean recalled Ankang, which was both regretful and heartbroken, and he smiled and smiled, and shed tears.
Mu Xue took a tissue and carefully wiped her tears, and at this time, Leng Yan had already found the photo Mu Xue wanted from those photos.
It was a black-and-white photo, and the people in the photo were not particularly clear, but fortunately, they could still recognize the appearance of the person, and in those days, it was already very good to be able to take it like this.
Mu Xue took the photo and looked at the little person in the photo, and was in a trance for a moment.
It was her father, the father she dreamed about countless times at midnight, and she didn't dare to think about it, because every time she thought about it, she was full of self-blame and pain, which was the most unbearable pain in her life.
