"I … I'm not good enough …" the middle-aged woman cried.
The dean was unmoved. "Don't misunderstand. I'm not lying to you. I really can't remember. I have to go back and check the files. I'll definitely contact you when I find out. "
In short, she insisted that she couldn't remember. Even if the middle-aged woman didn't believe her, there was nothing she could do.
"Don't worry," the dean said again.
The middle-aged woman had no choice but to tell the dean her phone number.
The dean didn't invite her in. The middle-aged woman lowered her eyes sadly. She knew that the dean didn't like her.
Yes, she had ruthlessly abandoned the child. Even thinking about it now, she felt ashamed.
She really just wanted to see the child. She didn't want anything from the child. She knew that she wasn't good enough.
"Then … then I'll leave. Sorry to disturb you," the middle-aged woman said.
Principal Romuse nodded politely before closing the door and going back to his room.
The middle-aged woman turned around. She was a little dazed. She forgot the direction she came from and just walked around randomly.
"Hello." Suddenly, she was blocked by someone in front of her.
She lowered her head and only saw a pair of shoes in front of her. The shoes had exquisite lace prints. They were very beautiful, completely different from the leather shoes she had worn for several years.
A young female voice came to her ears. It was clear and pleasant, but it wasn't Lin Chu's voice.
Although she had only met him twice and each time she ran away, she still remembered Lin Chu's voice deeply in her heart.
Lin Chu's voice was gentle and pleasant. It was very pleasant and comfortable, making people unconsciously get close to him.
The voice in front of her was also pleasant but a little arrogant. Hearing it, people would unconsciously distance themselves from her. They didn't like to be too close.
Instinctively, she took two steps back. She looked up and saw a young and beautiful girl in front of her. She had a noble temperament.
Lu Weining didn't expect to have such a big harvest today.
Since the orphanage didn't work, she wanted to come and see if there was any other way. As soon as she stopped, she saw the middle-aged woman standing at the entrance of the orphanage and ringing the bell.
Lu Weining wasn't in a hurry. After all, she hadn't thought about how to tell the dean. Moreover, there was an outsider there. She couldn't say anything.
Not long after, she saw the dean come out. After saying a few words, the woman began to cry.
Lu Weining raised her eyebrows and felt strange. She thought that she might be able to seize the opportunity to get some dirt on the old headmaster. He quietly got out of the car and leaned closer to listen to their conversation.
The old dean was shocked by the sudden appearance of Lin Chu's mother, and the middle-aged woman's thoughts were all on Lin Chu. At the same time, she was worried that the old dean would be angry, so she didn't notice Lu Weining hiding at the side.
When the old dean and the middle-aged woman finished talking, they left separately. The middle-aged woman lowered her head and was stopped by Lu Weining.
Lu Weining took out a business card from her bag and handed it to the middle-aged woman. "I'm Lu Weining. I came here to see the dean, but I overheard your conversation."
The middle-aged woman's expression changed. It was hard to tell if she was unhappy or embarrassed, and she immediately fell silent.
Lu Weining quickly said, "Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I don't have any bad intentions towards you. It's just that I heard you mention Lin Chu — "
The middle-aged woman blurted out in surprise, "You know Lin Chu?"
Lu Weining nodded. The middle-aged woman asked hesitantly, "Are you … familiar with the orphanage?"
Lu Weining nodded and smiled. "I'm very familiar with Lin Chu and Bei Cheng. I'm also familiar with the orphanage."
They were indeed familiar, but their relationship wasn't good.
Lu Weining wasn't lying, but there was no need to let the middle-aged woman know the specifics.
"I also heard the old dean's words just now. It seems that she doesn't want you to meet Lin Chu, even if it's a secret meeting. However, it's understandable. After all, she doesn't know you very well. She's afraid that you might say that you don't want to acknowledge your daughter, but after knowing Lin Chu's current identity, you still want to acknowledge her and take advantage of her, "Lu Weining said.
"I don't —" The middle-aged woman was so emotional that she cried again.
Lu Weining didn't want to argue with her on the street. It wouldn't look good. Moreover, looking at the middle-aged woman's behavior, she wasn't a smart person.
Lu Weining's heart skipped a beat. The smile on her face was still kind, but she interrupted the middle-aged woman's words. "Why don't we find a place to sit down and talk slowly? It's not appropriate to talk about this on the street."
The middle-aged woman was still crying. Hearing this, she paused and quickly nodded. "That's right."
"My car is parked over there." Lu Weining pointed to her Audi that was parked by the roadside.
The middle-aged woman had originally thought that Lu Weining was rich when she saw the way she dressed. Now that she saw the car, she was even less suspicious.
Thinking about it, it wasn't strange. Lin Chu and Yan Beicheng's friends must be rich.
Lu Weining brought the middle-aged woman to a private club and asked for a private room. She was quite cautious.
It was the middle-aged woman's first time in such a high-class place. From the moment she got out of the car and saw the appearance of the club, she couldn't help but be amazed. She couldn't control her eyes and kept looking around, but she didn't show any greedy expression.
After entering the private room, the middle-aged woman looked around the luxurious and exquisite room and followed Lu Weining to a big round table.
The room was big, and so was the table. The middle-aged woman estimated that this big table was spacious enough to seat twenty to thirty people. This was just a place to eat. The side was like a small living room, with a sofa, a coffee table, and a TV.
The middle-aged woman had never seen such a high-class place in her life.
Lu Weining pointed to the chair. "Please sit."
The middle-aged woman nodded. She was a little embarrassed. She smoothed her clothes with both hands and sat down. Lu Weining sat next to her.
"This is a club under our company. We usually discuss business with our customers here," Lu Weining said.
To put it bluntly, some bosses wanted to have a meal with their celebrities, so Star Creation provided such a place. It was their own place, so they didn't have to worry about using it.
If there were celebrities who didn't care about the unspoken rules and wanted to use others to advance, it was also very good here. They were all people under Star Creation, so they wouldn't talk about it to others.
To put it bluntly, Star Creation didn't mind doing things like pimping for their own celebrities. The premise was that they were willing. Star Creation wouldn't force them. However, these celebrities would find their own ways in private. Instead of letting them mess around and having to deal with public relations when something happened, it was better for Star Creation to take on the job themselves.
"You … You're Lin Chu's good friend?" the middle-aged woman asked.
Lu Weining thought for a moment. "How should I say this? I have a very good relationship with Beicheng's mother and sister, so I got to know Lin Chu. Although we can't be considered good friends, we're still friends. "
The middle-aged woman nodded. She remembered something and said embarrassedly, "I kept forgetting to introduce myself. My name is Dai Huimin."
"Hello, Auntie," Lu Weining said generously.
Dai Huimin hesitated for a moment. Seeing that Lu Weining was pouring tea for her, she quickly held the cup and kept saying "Thank you". Then she asked, "You … Can you help me meet Lin Chu?"
Lu Weining lowered her eyes and pretended to think for a while before saying, "To tell you the truth, I have the same concerns as the old director. Do you really just want to see her and nothing else? You have to know that Lin Chu's identity is different now. She's with Yan Beicheng and has entered the upper social circle. I'm afraid she doesn't want … any changes. "
"Speaking of which, your identity will really be a burden to her. She's just an orphan now, so it's fine. But once people find out … "Lu Weining paused." I'll be straightforward. Please don't mind me. Looking at your clothes, I don't think you're rich. "
Dai Huimin nodded awkwardly.
"That's why I'm worried. You abandoned her in the beginning. Now that she has such a good home, I'm afraid she doesn't want anything to happen to her. Maybe she doesn't want to see you either, "Lu Weining said sincerely and took a sip of tea.
Through the rising white steam, she saw Dai Huimin's pea-sized tears fall down one by one.
"I really don't have any other thoughts, even if I don't let her know that I'm her mother. When you go to see her, bring me along. Even if you say that I'm a servant hired by you, just let me see her up close and say a few words to her. "Dai Huimin wiped her tears and said," Miss Lu, please believe me. How can I have the face to recognize her again? I cruelly abandoned her. All these years, I've been thinking about her as a baby. I've never done anything for her, and I don't have the face to recognize her. I won't bring her trouble and drag her down. Please believe me, please. "
