003 The light that shines into life
As if thinking of something, the girl's eyes were full of shock, and she looked at the person in front of her in disbelief.
There was a fierce shootout that day, a lot of people died, a lot of blood was shed, and she thought she would die there too.
But no, someone saved her.
The man was armed with a gun, dressed in clothes similar to those of the jungle, and held her in his arms, standing out from the rain of bullets.
Although she didn't know if that person was a good person, she knew that he was saving her.
But it was so chaotic that she couldn't see his face at all.
Is it the person in front of you?
If it was really him, could she believe him?
What if he is also a wolf in the sheep's clothing of hypocrisy?
She wasn't sure if she was safe now, or if she had fallen from one wolf's den to another.
No wonder she thinks so, even her family has abandoned her, who can she trust?
Moreover, after the age of five, she was either resold or on the way to be resold.
She really didn't have the courage to trust anyone anymore.
Without hope, there will be no disappointment.
Li Chen saw that there was a look in her eyes, and pursed his lips and smiled, "Don't you recognize me?" ”
The girl's expression was still the same, and he said again: "It's okay if you can't recognize it, let's get to know each other again." ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, "Hello, my name is Li Chen." ”
The hand hung in the air for more than half a minute, and the girl was stunned without a trace of reaction, so he had to withdraw his hand, "It's okay, let's take our time." ”
After a long time, Li Chen said again: "Little girl, if you really don't know where your home is and who your family is, why don't I find you a home, okay?" ”
The girl's eyes were full of shock and disbelief, home?
He said he wanted to find her a home.
She hadn't heard the word "home" for a long time.
"If you don't speak, I'll take you by default." He smiled brightly, like the sun, shining into the girl's heart, warm.
The girl seemed to be infected by such a smile, how long had she not seen such a warm and sunny smile?
The protective wall built in her heart collapsed a corner, and she wanted to try to believe him, at least for this moment, she chose to believe.
The worst outcome is death.
She'd already been closed from the ghost gate twice and wouldn't mind one more time.
On the day he was discharged from the hospital, Li Chen did not wear the army-green clothes, but changed into casual clothes, a black leather coat, a black shirt underneath, and a pair of black trousers.
Lin Qiutang and a few people came to the hospital early and brought her some daily clothes.
At this time, the clothes were being spread out on the hospital bed, and the girl was left to choose.
There are white princess dresses, good-looking overalls, simple shirts + sweatpants, which were chosen by Su Tian, Li Qian, and Lin Qiutang.
Knowing that she was going to be discharged from the hospital and had no daily clothes, they went to the mall the first day, originally thinking that the three of them would work together to pick a set, but they could pick and choose, each with their own opinions, and their opinions were not unanimous.
In the end, it was decided to pick one set for each person, and it was up to the little girl to choose who she chose in the end.
The girl looked at the three sets of clothes on the bed, and finally picked up the most modest one.
Su Tian looked shocked, "Little sister, why don't you choose a princess dress?" The princess dress looks good. ”
"It's not good-looking, it's obvious that the pants and clothes look good."
The girl didn't speak, just looked at Li Chen on the side.
Li Chen understood and looked at the three people in the room, "Let's go out and wait." ”
As he spoke, he took the lead in raising his feet and walking towards the door of the ward.
Seeing this, the other three also followed.
Su Tian never understood, how could there be a little girl who didn't like a princess dress?
Seeing her confused, Lin Qiutang raised his hand and patted her shoulder, "This game, I won." ”
"Lin Pai, this doesn't count." Su Tian retorted, "That little girl is an alternative, unlike other little girls, if you want to change to other little girls, you can choose a princess dress!" ”
When her words fell, Li Qian slapped her on the back of the head, "Who are you talking about!" ”
Li Chen raised his eyes to look at her, and Lin Qiutang's eyes also fell on her.
Feeling that everyone looked like they were going to peel her skin, Su Tian lost the momentum she had just now, like a wilted flower, and lowered her voice and said: "It's because I have a bad eye, and the little girl doesn't like the clothes I picked, it's me who is different, and it has nothing to do with the little girl." ”
Li Chen lowered his eyes and looked at the ground, not knowing what he was thinking
Lin Qiutang also retracted his gaze, but Li Qian on the side couldn't help laughing, "Look at what you can, see if you dare to talk nonsense next time." ”
Su Tian glared at her, "You talk a lot." ”
Just then, the door to the ward was opened.
The clothes are a little big, the girl wears them, they are loose, the sweatpants are a little long, piled up to the ankles, her hair is scattered, and her small face is sallow and sallow because of perennial malnutrition.
"This ......" Lin Qiutang wanted to explain, but when the words came to his lips, he took them back.
She bought the clothes according to the size of an eight-year-old girl, but she didn't expect it to be older.
The little girl has indeed suffered a lot in the past few years, and she is obviously eleven or twelve years old, but her stature is not as good as an eight-year-old child.
She was too small, her complexion was not good, and her hair was a little frizzy.
After being stunned for a moment, Lin Qiutang said, "Sister, let's comb your hair!" ”
She crouched down, her tone noticeably softer than usual.
She felt a little sorry for this child, what happened to her, in a change to an adult, could not bear it, but she survived.
Maybe they had too much to expect, and they always wanted her to speak.
But she's just a child, she's been treated so inhumanly in the past, she's already strong enough to survive, so why ask for so much?
As long as you can grow up healthy and safe in the future, it's good.
The girl did not refuse, she turned around and walked into the ward, climbed into the bed, and turned sideways again, and the little one sat there obediently.
She was waiting for Lin Qiutang, waiting for her to comb her hair.
After understanding what she meant, Lin Qiutang raised her heel and took out a wooden comb from the drawer of the bedside table.
"Sister will be gentle, if you feel pain, raise your hand."
The girl didn't respond, just sat obediently, and her small back was full of stubbornness and bitterness.
Lin Qiutang tied her in a high ponytail, and she didn't raise her hand once during the whole process.
There was a knot in her hair, which was especially difficult to comb apart, and even though she moved lightly, sometimes it would pull her scalp, and she thought she would raise her hand to make her lighter.
But no, she didn't make any movement the whole time, just sat quietly and asked her to comb her hair quietly.
Probably those past experiences are thousands of times more painful than the pain of hair pulling on the scalp, right?
