Yan Beicheng had sunk into her sadness for a while. Soone knocked on the car window several tis before Yan Beicheng lowered it and saw Zuo Qiu bending down to him. His face was right outside the car window. “Master Yan, we’ll be late if we don’t leave soon.”

Yan Beicheng allowed them to enter the car with an impatient expression.

Yan Beicheng glanced at Zuo Qiu. He did not say anything, but this put Zuo Qiu on edge.

So ti had passed before he muttered, “Don’t post so many selfies online next ti. If you’re going to do it anyway, make sure to pay attention to the things behind you!”

Zuo Qiu was shocked. He instantly reacted and opened his WeChat. He carefully observed the photo he took earlier and was surprised to discover that Yan Beicheng and Miss Chen were in the fra as well.

Zuo Qiu’s first instinct was to delete the picture, but Yan Beicheng shot daggers at him imdiately. “You’ll make it seem like I’m guilty if you delete it.”

Zuo Qiu selected Lin Chu’s contact on WeChat and sent her a ssage.

“Miss Lin, Master Yan and Miss Chen are really innocent. T.T”

Lin Chu did not have ti to check her WeChat ssages at work. She only opened it on the way ho after work when she was bored in the subway.

She ended up seeing nineteen unread ssages from Zuo Qiu.

“Miss Lin, Master Yan was really stern when he sent Miss Chen away.”

“Miss Lin, Master Yan didn’t even touch her fingertip.”

“Miss Lin, why aren’t you replying? Are you really angry, Miss Lin? OTL”

Lin Chu remained silent as she read those ssages that were all sent at noon. She did not reply because a long ti had passed since then. She discovered that the last na of the young woman whom Yan Beicheng t in Ning City was Chen.

Lin Chu told Xu Moyan about this once she returned ho. Only then did Xu Moyan calm down.

...

Lin Chu woke up early on Saturday and freshened up. Once she had finished eating her breakfast, she saw Xu Moyan who was still dressed in her pajamas with bed hair walking out of her room yawning. When she noticed that Lin Chu was already neatly dressed, she rembered what was going on. “Oh yeah, you’re going to visit the orphanage today.”

Lin Chu smiled and walked to the doorway. The gifts that she had prepared to bring to the orphanage were already placed at the entrance. They were not expensive items. Just so snacks, fruits, and little toys.

“Hold on.” Xu Moyan quickly returned to her room. Monts later, she brought out a large bag. “These are the clothes that I bought for the children. You can bring them over as well.”

“Okay.” Lin Chu did not have to be modest around Xu Moyan. She left the house with those items.

Her financial status improved after she left the orphanage. She could occasionally return to the orphanage with gifts because of that. Once she had found a job, she thought of visiting them again. The gifts had already been bought a long ti ago. She decided to go today when she realized she did not have anything to do today.

The teachers at the orphanage ca and went, but the old principal remained where she was always. Lin Chu truly respected her for that. The old principal was the only person whom she considered as a real family mber.

Lin Chu carried the bags of various sizes and called a cab.

As the price of the land in B City was not exorbitant more than twenty years ago, the orphanage was not located in a remote area. It was located in the city instead. Although it was not in the expensive city center, she could travel there by cab because it was not too far away.

Before the cab reached the entrance of the orphanage, Lin Chu saw an elderly woman standing at the doorway from afar. The woman was glancing in her direction.

The rims of Lin Chu’s eyes turned red, and her heart ward up imdiately.

That woman was the old principal of the orphanage. The old principal used to be a teacher at the orphanage when she was younger. Later, she took the job of the previous principal and remained at the orphanage this entire ti without leaving. She never got married or had any children. She simply treated the children in the orphanage as her own.

When so of the children left the orphanage several decades ago, they beca heartless scoundrels. So had forgotten their roots while others returned to borrow money. The old principal was not rich, but she lent them money anyway. Sadly, those people vanished entirely after that and never ca back. It was impossible to ask them to return the money now. anwhile, there were others who constantly tried to butter the principal up by pretending to be obedient and respectful toward her. Unfortunately, they acted as though she owed them a favor when they were unable to benefit from their actions. They stopped contacting her after that.

Nonetheless, the old principal did not lose trust in the children because of this. She continued treating them kindly as she did in the past.

The old principal was lucky because there were many other orphans like Lin Chu who rembered her kindness all along. They were not necessarily rich, but they would occasionally return to visit the orphanage. They contributed to the best of their abilities.

When the cab reached the entrance of the orphanage, Lin Chu passed the loose change that she had already prepared earlier to the driver. She got down from the car right away, not wanting the old principal to wait for a long ti.

“Why did you co outside and wait for again? No matter which one of us returns, you’ll always be waiting at the entrance to welco us. Do you know that this makes us feel bad? Next ti, I’m not going to inform you beforehand.” Lin Chu helped the old principal as they walked inside together.

Lin Chu’s hand was on the old principal’s arm. The old principal patted it twice affectionately and lifted her head to look at Lin Chu. She relaxed when she noticed that her complexion was healthy. “I don’t have much to do now. Aside from taking care of the children, all I do is look forward to your visits. I feel relieved when I co outside and wait for you.”

“That’s fine when the weather is good, but it’s getting colder now. You need to take care of your health,” said Lin Chu.

The old principal smiled. She was about to speak when they entered the house together, but a few little children who were playing in the garden ran up to them imdiately.

“Chu Chu!”

Several children called out to her in child-like voices. They used to greet her this way ever since they were younger. They were about five or six years old now, but they continued doing that. Lin Chu did not mind.

Lin Chu noticed that the little children’s faces had turned red from the wind from playing outside. She said, “All of you should co inside with . I’ve brought gifts and Moyan bought clothes for you as well.”

“Go and tell the other kids!” said the old principal as she smiled.

The children clapped their hands and skipped inside the house.

The smile on the old principal’s face vanished. She looked at Lin Chu with a concerned expression. “Have you been well recently? I’ve heard that you and Cheng Ziming...”

Lin Chu was shocked. “How did you know?”

The old principal smiled. “Hexuan told when she ca over a few days ago.”

The old principal saw Lin Chu pouting. It was obvious that she disliked Zhu Hexuan for gossiping about her. However, the old principal did not mind. She rely said, “It doesn’t matter what her intentions were when she said those things. At least she inford about your situation...”

Lin Chu held the old principal’s arm. “You don’t have to worry. I never told you this before because I didn’t want these little things to worry you. I really don’t think of it as a big deal. I’m not going to insist on sothing that isn’t supposed to be mine. That man willingly abandoned for the sake of money so I’m not upset that I lost him either.”

The old principal stopped worrying when she realized that Lin Chu was truly unbothered. She dropped the subject after that.

Lin Chu would have told the old principal about her relationship with Yan Beicheng now if the news and Zuo Qiu’s selfie incident did not occur. The old principal would be relieved to discover that she had a boyfriend again.

The news might have exaggerated the truth, but Lin Chu did not want to ntion her relationship yet. She wanted to wait for Yan Beicheng to return so that she could confirm everything with her own eyes first. Truthfully, she had no confidence in this.

“There was a period of ti when you didn’t co. Will you be sleeping here tonight? There are a lot of empty rooms in the orphanage.” the old principal said once they had both entered the ho.

Lin Chu pondered for so ti before she agreed. The old principal was extrely delighted. She went to tidy up a room for Lin Chu herself at once.

After so ti, the old principal went to the kitchen once she had finished cleaning the room but was stopped by Lin Chu. “You shouldn’t overexert yourself. You haven’t rested at all since I arrived.”

“I’ll be done in a while. I’m just going to get so snacks from the kitchen. I made them myself. Don’t you like the pumpkin cookies that I usually make? I baked so for you this morning.” the old principal said happily.

Several monts later, she ca out carrying a tray of pumpkin cookies. “Try them and tell whether my skills have gotten worse or not.”

Lin Chu grabbed one and took a bite. There were various kinds of snacks out there in the world and those unique to other countries could be purchased online. These pumpkin cookies were not such a delicious delicacy anymore.

Nevertheless, the orphanage did not have an abundance of funds when Lin Chu was younger. The old principal would always use the ingredients that she had on hand to make snacks. Lin Chu missed the taste of the old principal’s food. She was also kind enough to treat Lin Chu as her real granddaughter.

Lin Chu had suffered ill-treatnt at the hands of the Lin Family nurous tis lately. She nearly was choked with sobs when she ate the pumpkin cookies that the old principal woke up early to bake. She pressed herself against the old principal’s bosom imdiately. “You’re so nice. I’ve always loved your snacks the most.”

“Silly girl.” The old principal stroked her hair gently. “You can co back here if you’re getting bullied in the outside world. I’ll always be here.”

Lin Chu nodded in silence. “If I could, I would have happily grown up here all along so that I could be with you.”

The old principal ruffled her hair. Her heart was also filled with regret. If she knew this beforehand, she would not have allowed the Lin Family to adopt her. They were an affluent family, but that ant nothing.

The old principal blad herself even after all these years. However, she never ntioned this to Lin Chu because she did not want to hurt her even more.

Lin Chu convinced the children to take a nap in the afternoon. After playing with them earlier, it was also exhausting for her to make them go to bed. She looked tired as well, so the old principal nagged her to return to the house and rest for a while. She would be energized and ready to run around again later once the children woke up from their naps.

Lin Chu was half-asleep during her nap when she heard the sound of laughter coming from downstairs. The old principal was laughing. She wondered who she was speaking to and what made her so happy.

She rubbed her eyes. She was more curious than sleepy now. After she opened the door, the sound of chatter and laughter beca more distinct. That refined voice resembling a cool breeze rustling through the willow tree’s leaves sounded very familiar to her.

Lin Chu went downstairs and saw that a man was sitting on the sofa with his back facing her. His back was straight, and he wore a light gray suit that fit his body nicely. The view of his body from the back gave off a desirable aura. A light brown cashre coat and a plaid scarf were hung on the side of the sofa.

It was impossible for Lin Chu not to recognize that familiar silhouette.

The old principal was the first one to notice Lin Chu walking downstairs. She bead and called her over saying, “Lin Chu, co quickly. You never told that you’d found yourself such a nice boyfriend.”

She could tell that the old principal was elated, but she did not know how Yan Beicheng managed to make a good impression on her. It was his first ti visiting the orphanage and he had already made the old principal this happy.

Yan Beicheng stood from his seat when he heard that. He turned around and smiled at Lin Chu who still looked confused by what was happening. The corners of his lips were curled upward while his black eyes were filled with a refreshing kind of gentleness. He resembled the pleasantly warm sunshine in June that ward up the entire room in the radiance of spring.

He was the epito of a gentle and refined person.

The old principal placed her hand on her chest and gasped in admiration when she saw him.

This young man was so handso!

Lin Chu suppressed the fury in her heart. She was still thinking about the incident with the photo, but her face was expressionless when she walked over. She simply glanced at Yan Beicheng flatly. However, she was the only person who knew about the indescribable relief in her heart. Yan Beicheng had co to see her at once when he returned. The comfort she felt in her heart was indescribable. It seed like everything had settled down once she saw him. The indecisive feelings and worries that she felt earlier were completely insignificant now.

He wore a simple and clean white shirt without a tie. His slender and graceful body was bathed in the sunlight shining through the room. Everything about him was magnificent.

It seed as though everything would be perfect as long as he existed and was a part of her life.

“How did you know I was here?” Lin Chu was stunned for a while before she walked to Yan Beicheng and asked him.

Although the old principal was present, Yan Beicheng did not restrain himself when he tried to curry favor with Lin Chu. He overlooked Lin Chu’s indifferent expression and reached out for her hand to pull her closer to him. “I went to your house straight away, but Xu Moyan said you were here. That’s why I ca over.”

Yan Beicheng did not tell her how incredibly nervous he was along the way. He rushed over to find Lin Chu imdiately after he got down from the plane. Lin Chu ending the call without making her feelings clear yesterday had made him unable to sleep. They had just gotten into a relationship recently, but Yan Beicheng was worried that he would lose his girlfriend today.

He had seen Lin Chu’s attitude toward Cheng Ziming with his own eyes. He knew that this woman would be wholeheartedly devoted to soone when they were on good terms. However, once soone had betrayed her, she would break up with them without any hesitation. It would be impossible for them to reconcile.

This incident was truly a misunderstanding. He never intended for this to happen, and he did not an to do anything that would disappoint Lin Chu. There was no need for him to cast curious glances at other won when he already had Lin Chu. Nonetheless, he was also partly responsible for the issue since he had given the other party an opening to exploit him. If he had done a better job, this misunderstanding would not have occurred.

He was terribly anxious during his journey to Lin Chu’s house. In the end, Xu Moyan told him that Lin Chu was not at ho but was at the orphanage. Xu Moyan left out certain details on purpose. This was Yan Beicheng’s fault. Who told him to be so careless as to involve himself in such a scandal? When Xu Moyan saw the shocked and panicked look on his face, she thought that it served him right.

Yan Beicheng assud that Lin Chu ran to hide at the orphanage because she was angry and sad. His mind was horribly tornted throughout his journey there.

He could only let out a brief sigh of relief when he saw Lin Chu now.

Lin Chu noticed that his luggage was still placed in the corner, and his clothes were stained with dust.

“Did you co here right after you got off the plane?” Lin Chu could not help but ask.

Yan Beicheng could not suppress a smile from forming on the corners of his lips. He knew that Lin Chu was not angry at him since she was so concerned about him now. He said, “I couldn’t wait to see you.”

Lin Chu blushed when she caught a glimpse of the teasing look on the old principal’s face. She mumbled, “I’d already planned to co back here for a visit today.”

Yan Beicheng realized that Xu Moyan had lured him here. He silently made a ntal note to get back at her. However, he was elated to discover that Lin Chu was not mad at him.

“Don’t just stand there, hurry up and sit down,” said the old principal happily.

Yan Beicheng imdiately tugged at Lin Chu and made her sit down with him. He sat very close to her.

The old principal looked at Yan Beicheng up and down. She felt that he was more than a hundred tis better than Cheng Ziming in every way.

Yan Beicheng took a check out of his suit pocket and passed it to her. “I know that this place is like a ho to Lin Chu. She’s very attached to it. I’m also very grateful to you for loving and protecting her. Lin Chu has suffered a lot, but it’s fortunate that she had you. This is rely a little token to the orphanage from .”

The old principal’s expression changed when she saw the numbers on the check, but she did not take it. “I took good care of Lin Chu because I treated her like my own granddaughter. I didn’t do it for money.”

“Please don’t get the wrong idea,” said Yan Beicheng sincerely. “This is just my donation to the orphanage. I don’t have any other intentions. I hope that this place will prosper because it was Lin Chu’s ho. I hope that the children will have better lives here as well. I’m aware of the hardships that are faced by orphanages. Why shouldn’t I help when I’m able to do that? When the orphanage prospers, Lin Chu will be happy and so will I. Moreover, I know about your contributions toward the orphanage too. Lin Chu doesn’t want you to always be troubled over the issues regarding the orphanage’s application fees.”

“That...” The old principal hesitated and looked at Lin Chu. In the end, she felt that it was not a big deal to accept the check in this case.

“Since Lin Chu considers you as her real grandmother, you’re my grandmother as well. It’s my duty to show respect to you and do things like this.” Yan Beicheng sounded extrely sincere when he said that. Nobody could harbor any ill feelings toward him when they saw his handso and refined face.

Lin Chusaw that the old principal was troubled, so she tried to drag him away after whispering, “Co with for a while.”

Yan Beicheng smiled at the old principal kindly. His smile made the old principal felt dizzy for a mont or two. Once she returned to her senses, Yan Beicheng and Lin Chu were not there anymore.
