Chapter 862 - 862 Meeting Her Again
862 Meeting Her Again
After a while, Shen Hanxing smiled again and knocked her forehead against Ji Yan’s broad shoulder. “Thank you, Mr. Ji. I’ve been coaxed!” What could a person’s betrayal represent? She had friends, relatives, siblings, and, more importantly, she had Mr. Ji. Having him was already the best gift that the heavens had given her.
Seeing the relief in Shen Hanxing’s eyes, Ji Yan’s thin lips curled up slightly. He pressed one hand against his chest and bowed to Shen Hanxing in a standard gentleman’s manner. “Then may I have the honor of inviting Mrs. Ji to walk the stairs with me?”
“Sure.” Shen Hanxing raised her chin and pretended to be a noble and elegant lady. She placed her hand on the back of Ji Yan’s hand and could not help but smile. Ji Yan also smiled. The two of them held hands and walked together in the empty stairwell. The sound of leather shoes and high heels falling on the ground sounded one after another, synchronized and harmonious.
When they reached the second floor, a familiar female voice was heard. “Lele might be shy. It’s okay. I’ll get along well with him. I believe that after we get to know each other, he will open his heart to me, and we will become good friends!”
Immediately after, a middle-aged woman sounded, “Miss Shen is right. Lele has always been eccentric and strange. She doesn’t get along very well with us. I believe that under Miss Shen’s guidance, she will get better and better.”
Shen Sisi? What was she doing? Who was Lele? Shen Hanxing squinted her eyes and exchanged glances with Ji Yan. She was in no hurry to leave, so she pushed open the corridor door and stepped into the corridor on the second floor.
Shen Sisi was still wearing the white dress. Beside her stood an exceptionally thin, vigilant, and stubborn six or seven-year-old child who looked like a wolf cub and a plump middle-aged woman.
The little boy was probably the “Lele” that Shen Sisi and the middle-aged woman had mentioned. He was overly thin, making his eyes appear especially large. When he looked at people, his eyes were filled with wariness, unlike a child’s. Shen Hanxing could not help but squint her eyes.
Shen Sisi was utterly oblivious to Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan’s arrival. The makeup on her face was very light. In the eyes of the camera or some men, it was probably as if she had no makeup on, making her appear even more clean and soft.
At this moment, Shen Sisi’s looked at Lele with concern and said to the doctor beside her, “Doctor, no matter how much it costs, we must cure Lele. Doctor, please.” It was as if she was Lele’s family.
“Miss Shen, you are kind-hearted.” The doctor looked a little touched, and his eyebrows relaxed. “It’s the patient’s blessing to meet Miss Shen. Miss Shen, don’t worry. The hospital and I will do our best to treat Lele.”
“Thank you, doctor. Thank you so much.” Shen Sisi’s already radiant face instantly blossomed with a smile. She bowed and thanked the doctor in a humble manner that Shen Hanxing had never seen before. Her eyes were red as if she would cry tears of joy the next second.
The doctor quickly stopped Shen Sis from thanking her and praised Shen Sisi before leaving to make arrangements for her hospitalization.
“It’s all thanks to a kind person like Miss Shen.” The middle-aged woman’s eyes were also a little red. Her hand fell on Lele’s shoulder, and she said with half emotion and half sadness, “Many of the children in the orphanage were abandoned by their parents because they were physically disabled or had congenital diseases. Their biological parents had given up on them, but Miss Shen was willing to bring new life to these children …” She paused as if sobbing. After a while, she pushed Lele’s back and urged, “Lele, did you hear that? You have hope of curing. Hurry up and thank Miss Shen. If not for Miss Shen, what would you have done? You’re only ten years old…”
Ten years old? Lele was ten years old? He looked skinny and small, and it was apparent that he had suffered a lot.
Lele pursed his lips, revealing a maturity and stubbornness that did not match his age. His wolf-like eyes stared at Shen Sisi without saying a word. Not only was there no gratitude but there was also a little resentment. His thin shoulders were pushed by the middle-aged woman twice, and he staggered forward. He stopped. Not only did he not move forward, but he also grabbed the wall tightly. His voice was indescribably stubborn. “I won’t!”
