"Then how did he get here?" Xiaoke's face turned even uglier. Only Xiao Ken and the dean knew that she brought back a box of Swiss francs from the practitioner's market. The other workers in the orphanage didn't know about it, so how did Lin Yi know about it? Xiaoke's face darkened even more.
Although Lin Yi had a lot of information channels, why would Lin Yi pay attention to her if he had nothing to do? Could it be …
Xiaoke had once suspected that Lin Yi was interested in her, but Lin Yi denied it, which made Xiaoke feel a little relieved. But no matter what, Xiaoke still felt uneasy. After all, Lin Yi wasn't someone she had a lot of contact with, and Lin Yi didn't look like someone who liked to meddle in other people's business. Why would he help her?
What reason would he have to help the orphanage? And why would he go to such great lengths? His pharmaceutical company must have invested a lot of money into it, right? And he didn't ask for anything in return. Why?
Xiaoke couldn't think of any reason for Lin Yi to do this. What was the value of this orphanage? There were many people who did good deeds. Even if Lin Yi was doing good, there was no need for him to do this, right? Lin Yi wasn't doing a good deed anymore, he was doing everything he could.
And Lin Yi suddenly appeared, saying that he was here to help her solve her problem. This made Xiaoke worry even more. If Lin Yi didn't pay attention to her, how would he know that she needed Swiss francs? It seemed like Lin Yi had been paying attention to her!
Unless Lin Yi had sent people to follow her, and knew that she had been going to the bank and the black market every day to find out how to exchange money.
But since Lin Yi was here, Xiaoke had no reason to reject him. Lin Yi was here to help her, and no matter what his purpose was, if Lin Yi could really help her exchange money, it would solve a lot of Xiaoke's problems.
"I don't know either. Sister Xiaoke, why do you look so pale?" Xiao Ken smiled bitterly in his heart. 'If you knew that Big Brother Lin Yi is a male thief, I'm afraid you would have already rushed out, right?'
However, Xiao Ken couldn't get involved in this kind of thing.
"It's fine, let's go." Xiaoke sighed and left the room with Xiao Ken.
Coming to the guest room downstairs, Xiaoke saw Lin Yi drinking tea on the sofa and chatting with the dean of the orphanage. The dean had a smile on her face and nodded from time to time. It seemed like she had a good impression of Lin Yi.
"Lin Yi, you're here …" Xiaoke's attitude wasn't cold, but it wasn't friendly either.
"Xiao Ke, it's very troublesome to exchange those foreign currencies, right? Let me exchange it for you. " Lin Yi said straightforwardly. After coming to the orphanage, he still had to go to school to visit Ziyu and Chen Xi, so time was tight.
"En, how did you know I had foreign currency to exchange?" Xiaoke asked casually.
"I …" Lin Yi was about to say that Xiao Ken told him, but he saw Xiao Ken standing behind Xiaoke and giving Lin Yi a look. Lin Yi paused and smiled bitterly, "I … I heard it from someone else."
"Someone else?" Xiaoke frowned. As expected, if he didn't keep an eye on her, how would he know that she needed to exchange foreign currencies?
"Alright, let's not talk about this. I'll make a call first!" Lin Yi didn't want to sell Xiao Ken out and changed the topic. He took out his phone and called Pengzhan.
Lin Yi's actions, on the other hand, looked like a guilty conscience in Xiaoke's eyes. Avoiding the question meant that he was keeping an eye on her and refusing to admit it! Xiaoke didn't know what to do- what should she do? If she rejected Lin Yi and Lin Yi stopped funding the orphanage, what would she do? What would she do if he asked for her money back?
Xiaoke fell into a dilemma. She knew that Lin Yi might be interested in her, but she couldn't turn back now! Once she went against Lin Yi, it wouldn't just be her problem- it would affect all the children in the orphanage!
Did she want all the children to live on the streets? Xiaoke was scared just thinking about it …
And so, Xiaoke had no choice but to nod dejectedly, "Alright, thank you …"
Lin Yi, on the other hand, didn't notice the change in Xiaoke's facial expression. He thought that it was because she couldn't exchange the money out. He didn't think too much about it and turned to Pengzhan after the call connected, "Uncle Chu, do you have time now?"
"Now? Yeah, what's up, Yi? "Pengzhan asked.
"It's like this- my friend has a lot of Swiss Franc that he wants to exchange, but the amount is a bit large. Do you have a way?" Lin Yi asked.
"That's easy, just ask your friend to come to me directly. But I'm in Songshan right now, can your friend come over?" Pengzhan asked.
"Uncle Chu, I'm in Songshan right now, I'm in the orphanage, you see …" Lin Yi said.
"Alright, I'll ask Faubert to come find you, and he'll help you with the exchange," Pengzhan said.
"Alright, thank you, Uncle Chu." Lin Yi hung up and turned to Xiaoke, "Alright, one of my elders will be here soon, he can help with the exchange."
"Oh …" Xiaoke nodded. Although the problem was solved, she couldn't feel happy. She couldn't understand why Lin Yi would help her like this. If he didn't like her, then what was it?
But what if Lin Yi liked her? What should she do? She didn't want to do anything to betray the male thief, and she didn't want the orphanage to be destroyed. She was in a dilemma, and naturally, there wasn't any joy in solving the problem.
"Xiaoke, what's wrong? Why do you look so worried? What's the problem? Tell me and I'll solve it together? " Lin Yi, on the other hand, didn't think much of it- Xiaoke did mention this once, but he treated it as a joke and didn't take it to heart. Plus, Lin Yi's other identity was that of a male thief, so naturally, he would show more concern for Xiaoke.
Xiaoke, on the other hand, didn't think the same. The more Lin Yi treated her well, the more he wanted to help her solve her problems, the more she felt that Lin Yi was doing this for no reason. She said coldly, "No, thank you."
"Xiaoke, why are you talking to Lin Yi like that?" The dean frowned. (To be continued)
