"Wait a moment." Xu Moyan quickly returned to her room and came out with a big bag. "These are the clothes I bought for the children. You can bring them over too."
"Okay." Lin Chu didn't stand on ceremony with Xu Moyan and left with these things.
Even after leaving the orphanage, he would bring things back to the orphanage from time to time after he had the financial ability. After finding a job, he wanted to go back. He had already bought the things, and since he had nothing to do today, he decided to go back today.
The orphanage teachers came and went a lot, but the old dean was always there. He was someone Lin Chu respected from the bottom of his heart. He only treated the old dean as his real family.
Lin Chu carried the big and small bags and called a taxi.
Twenty years ago, the land price of B City wasn't exaggerated, so the location of the orphanage wasn't remote. It was still in the urban area. It wasn't the top of the city center, but it wasn't far by taxi.
Before the taxi reached the entrance of the orphanage, Lin Chu saw an old lady standing at the door, looking in his direction.
Lin Chu's eyes were a little red, and his heart immediately warmed up.
That was the old dean of the orphanage. The old dean had been a teacher at the orphanage since he was young. Later, he took over the previous dean's class and stayed at the orphanage without leaving. He didn't get married or have children. He treated the children in the orphanage as his own children.
In the past few decades, the children who walked out of the orphanage were heartless ingrates. They didn't recognize anyone, and some even came back to borrow money. The old dean didn't have much money, but he still borrowed money. But that person disappeared from then on and never appeared again, let alone return the money. There were also those who kept trying to please the old dean, but once they didn't get any benefits, they felt that the old dean owed them and never contacted them again.
But the old dean never lost trust in the children because of this and treated them well as usual.
Fortunately, there were also people who remembered the old director's kindness. There were many people like Lin Chu, who might not be rich or powerful, but he would still come back to the orphanage from time to time to visit and do what he could.
The taxi stopped at the entrance of the orphanage. Lin Chu handed the change to the driver and quickly got out of the car. He didn't want to let the old dean wait for long.
"Why did you come out to wait for me again? Every time we come over, you always have to welcome us at the door. Don't you make us feel bad? Next time, I won't tell you in advance. "Lin Chu supported the old dean and walked inside together.
The old dean lovingly patted Lin Chu's hand on her arm. She looked up at Lin Chu and saw that she looked good. She was relieved. "I have nothing to do now. Other than taking care of the children, I've been looking forward to your arrival. I'll come out and wait. That way, I'll feel more at ease. "
"It's fine if the weather is good, but it's getting colder and colder. You have to take care of yourself," said Lin Chu.
The old dean smiled and was about to say something when the two of them entered the door. A few children who were playing in the courtyard immediately came up to them.
"Chu Chu!"
A few children called out in a childish voice. They had been calling her that since they were young. Now that they were five or six years old, they still hadn't changed. Lin Chu didn't mind.
Lin Chu looked at the children who were playing outside and their faces were red from the wind. He said, "Come in with me. I brought gifts, and Mo Yan also bought clothes for you."
"Go tell the other children too!" Ol 'Amos said with a smile.
The children clapped their hands and ran into the house happily.
Ol 'Amos stopped smiling and looked at Lin Chu with concern. "How have you been recently? I heard that you and Ziming … "
Lin Chu was a little surprised. "How did you know?"
Ol 'Amos smiled. "He Xuan came back a few days ago and told me about it."
Lin Chu pursed his lips. It was obvious that he didn't like Zhu Hexuan being so talkative. Ol 'Amos didn't mind and only said, "No matter what she was thinking, she still let me know about your situation —"
Lin Chu held Ol 'Amos' arm. "Don't worry. I didn't tell you before because I didn't want to bother you with such a small matter. I really didn't think much of it. I won't force it if it's not mine. Besides, I don't think it's a pity to lose a man who would abandon me for money. "
Ol 'Amos saw that Lin Chu didn't seem to care, so she was relieved and didn't say anything more.
If it wasn't for the news and Zuo Qiu's selfie, Lin Chu would have told Ol 'Amos that she was with Yan Beicheng. At least she would have told him that she had a boyfriend again to reassure Ol' Amos.
But regarding the news, even if it wasn't true, before Yan Beicheng came back and confirmed it with her own eyes, she didn't want to say it out loud. In the end, she still wasn't sure.
"You haven't been here for a while. Why don't you sleep here tonight? There are quite a lot of empty rooms in the yard, "Ol 'Amos said after the two entered the house.
Lin Chu thought about it and agreed. Ol 'Amos was very happy and went to clean up Lin Chu's room.
After a while, Ol 'Amos came out and went to the kitchen. Lin Chu quickly stopped her. "Don't be busy. You haven't been idle since I came."
"I'll be here in a while. I'm going to the kitchen to get some snacks. I made them myself. Don't you always like my pumpkin pancakes? I made some this morning and was waiting for you to eat, "Ol 'Amos said with a smile.
After a while, she came out with a plate of pumpkin pancakes. "Try it and see if my cooking has deteriorated."
Lin Chu picked it up and took a bite. There were so many snacks nowadays and they could be bought online from all over the world. Pumpkin pancakes really weren't that delicious anymore.
But when Lin Chu was in the orphanage when she was young, the orphanage didn't have much funds. Ol 'Amos always used the existing ingredients and made her own snacks. Lin Chu always missed the taste of Ol' Amos's snacks and the kindness of her grandmother.
Recently, she had been wronged at the Lin family. Eating the pumpkin pancakes that Ol 'Amos made early in the morning, she choked up and went straight into Ol' Amos' arms. "You're so nice. My favorite snacks have always been the snacks you make."
"Silly child." Ol 'Amos gently stroked her hair. "If you're wronged outside, come back here. I'll always be here."
Lin Chu nodded silently. "If it's possible, I'd rather grow up here and be with you."
Ol 'Amos stroked her hair and regretted it. If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have let the Lin family adopt her. So what if they were rich?
All these years, Ol 'Amos had been blaming herself. But he didn't say this to Lin Chu. He didn't want her to feel worse.
In the afternoon, Lin Chu coaxed the children to take a nap. Previously, she played with the children and coaxed them to sleep. She was also a little sleepy. Ol 'Amos urged her to go back to the house to rest for a while. When the children woke up from their nap, they were full of energy again.
Lin Chu was half asleep in the afternoon. She faintly heard laughter coming from downstairs, as well as Ol 'Amos's laughter. She didn't know who he was chatting with, but he was so happy.
She rubbed her eyes. She was curious and didn't feel sleepy anymore. She got up and opened the door. She heard the laughter getting clearer and clearer. That elegant voice that was like a breeze brushing the willows was also very familiar.
Lin Chu walked downstairs and saw a man sitting on the sofa with his back facing her. His back was straight, and his light gray suit was well-fitting. From the back, there was a smell of forbidden bathing. Next to the sofa, there was a camel cashmere coat and a plaid scarf.
Looking at that comfortable back, how could Lin Chu not recognize who it was?
Ol 'Amos saw Lin Chu walking down first and quickly greeted her with a smile. "Lin Chu, come over quickly. You child, you didn't even tell me that you found such a good boyfriend."
It could be seen that Ol 'Amos was really happy. She didn't know how Yan Beicheng coaxed him. He had just come to visit, but he was able to make Ol 'Amos so happy.
Hearing this, Yan Beicheng slowly stood up, turned around, and smiled at Lin Chu, who was still a little confused. Even if it was just a slight curl of his lips, coupled with the watery tenderness in his black eyes, it was like the warm sun in June, warming the room.
