Huo Yan's narration was very plain, and there was no emotion in it, but when he heard this, Ning Shuyi had already expected it, looked at Huo Yan without saying a word, and listened to him carefully, but his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by a hand, a little trembling, and a little out of breath.

"That wonton shop, we've been to dinner before, and I've always wanted to eat family photos, but because family photos are the most expensive wontons in the store, I know that I am the child they adopted, and I have to be sensible, so I never dare to order expensive ones.

My adoptive father took the initiative to order me a bowl of family photos that day, and I was almost eight years old at the time, stupid, I didn't realize anything, I just felt very happy, and I was very happy to eat."

Huo Yan's eyes were staring at the lights of the thousands of homes in front of him, but he seemed to look into the endless distance through the tall buildings in front of him, and he had been passing through the tunnel of time and space, as if he had seen his young self back then.

"We went back after dinner that day, and I slept very well that night, and I was very happy in my heart, and I felt that my father was so good to me, and they had accepted me as a foreign child." His voice exuded a weakness that he didn't usually have, "The next morning, my adoptive father took me out on a motorcycle.

I didn't know where he was going to take me, I only knew that I had to be obedient, so I followed him, and when the car arrived at the door of the welfare home, I felt a little uneasy in my heart, and comforted myself, saying that maybe my father was coming back to do something.

My adoptive father asked me to play in the yard, and he went in to talk to the teacher at the welfare home for a while, and after a while he hurried out and got on his motorbike and left.

I chased after me, but I couldn't catch up no matter how much I chased him.

The teacher at the orphanage took me back and told me that there was a big change in my adoptive parents' family and they couldn't afford to raise me anymore, so they had to send me back."

Ning Shuyi frowned, she still remembered the woman she saw in the hospital, she was a little haggard, but it didn't seem that there was anything wrong with her health.

If it was because the adoptive mother was seriously ill that she could not continue to raise the adopted child, it is really surprising that she can recover to this extent now.

"For a long time after that, I was thinking about my adoptive parents, wondering what had happened to them, whether the problem had been solved now, and if so, whether they would come and take me home.

But they never showed up.

Later, a couple of adopters came to the welfare home and said that they wanted to adopt me, and the teachers at the welfare home were very surprised, because I was more than nine years old at that time, and I was about to be ten years old.

A boy who is about to be ten years old is definitely not the most suitable age group for adoption, or the most popular age group, and the teacher at the welfare home was also surprised, so he took them to the office and wanted to talk to them more carefully, so as not to encounter regrets later.

I snuck out of the office to hear what they had to say.

At that time, I didn't believe that I was so likable enough that people would come to me and adopt me.

Then I heard the couple talking under the interrogation of the teacher in the welfare home, and finally accidentally said nothing.

They said that my ex-adoptive parents had always had infertility problems and that medication had never worked, but after adopting me, my ex-adoptive mother miraculously became pregnant in less than two years......

Bell ——。

A small stone flew out quickly from under Ning Shuyi's feet and crashed into a sound cover disguised as a stone not far in front of the pavilion.

Huo Yan stopped and turned his head to look at her, Ning Shuyi frowned, his face was gloomy, and he waved his hand at him: "You said yours, don't pay attention to me."

It was the first time Huo Yan had seen Ning Shuyi's face so stinky, and he looked angry, even the last time he bumped into Fang Zhiyang at home, he didn't look so angry.

But I don't know why, seeing Ning Shuyi's dark and gloomy face, Huo Yan felt that his heart seemed to be suddenly lighter.

"The new adoptive couple thinks I'm the kind of person who can bring 'popularity' to the family.

; quot; people, so I deliberately inquired about which welfare home I was in, and as soon as I heard that I hadn't been adopted yet, I quickly brought it up.

At that time, the teachers at the welfare home were very angry, although the two of them repeatedly promised that they would not cross the river and tear down the bridge like my former adoptive parents, and even if they got pregnant and gave birth to their own children, they would always be grateful for the blessings I brought to my family and raised me well, but they were still reprimanded by the teachers of the welfare home and rushed back."

He continued, but his tone unconsciously began to calm down: "I heard these words, but I couldn't believe them.

At that time, I still clearly remember where my previous home was, so the next day I skipped half a day's class, followed the path I remembered, returned to the place where I lived in the evening, and stood downstairs for a long time, and finally I saw the former adoptive parents, pushing a stroller, on which was a small baby, looking very similar to the adoptive father.

Both of them looked happy, talking and laughing as they pushed the strollers, and the smiles on their faces were like they had never seen before.

The adoptive mother was a little fatter than she was, and she looked red and refreshed.

Only then did I believe that my adoptive mother was not seriously ill before, but was pregnant to protect the fetus, and they were because they had their own children, and the family conditions were not good enough, and if they continued to raise me, there would be no way to give their own children the best conditions."

"Did you go up and confront them?" Ning Shuyi couldn't help but ask.

Huo Yan shook his head: "No, I will be ten years old at that time, not so brave, I quietly ran back to the welfare home alone, as if nothing had happened, no one knew that I had ever gone to see my former adoptive parents.

It's just that since then, I have known that my ex-adoptive parents will never come back to take me back, and that the home will never belong to me from beginning to end.

I don't want anyone to adopt me anymore, and as long as no one adopts me, no one will return me.

For me, being adopted means a countdown to the next abandonment.

Since the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, I would rather leave no hope at all.

So since then, every time the welfare home comes to an adopter, I have been very negative and resistant, and as I get older, no one wants to adopt an older boy with a bad temper, so I am completely uncared for."
