Chapter 212 A life of dependence on each other
"Wow! Thank you, Brother Xiaoyan." She didn't understand the value of this jade. In her mind, it was just a gift between good friends. This was the first time she received a gift from a friend, so she must keep it well.
In this short period of time, Xiao Ji Shiyan has already made a preliminary exploration of this abandoned house. There are many scattered books and other items in it, and he is trying his best to gain more information from these things.
Little Ji Shiyan took the steamed bun and started to eat it in big mouthfuls. The steamed buns that he had noticed before were surprisingly delicious. He hadn't eaten for a long time and was physically and mentally exhausted. However, his uneasy and panicky mood kept supporting him and he couldn't just fall down and rest.
After finishing their meal, the two children began to yawn, looking sleepy. He actually felt safe next to this little girl.
"Go to sleep, little brother. I secretly got a small quilt here." After saying that, the little girl fell asleep directly.
Little Ji Shiyan smiled. Was this little girl so defenseless against him? What should he do if he was a bad guy?
But what he didn't know was that when the little girl met him, there was a thought in her mind saying that this person was a good person.
He picked up the little girl and put her on the quilt, covering her belly. He turned around and lay down not far from the little girl, then slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep peacefully.
When the two woke up, it was already the next morning.
The little girl must appear in the orphanage, and Xiao Ji Shiyan also has to go out and see if he can earn some silver, that is, money.
The two agreed to reunite here in the evening.
In the evening, when the two met again, Xiao Ji Shiyan received a large meal.
"This is something I bought for you." Xiao Ji Shiyan handed the little girl a pile of food.
"So much! Brother Xiaoyan, you are so awesome. You can make so much money in just one day!" A seed was planted in the little girl's heart at this moment. If she could get away from here, she would also be as awesome as Brother Xiaoyan.
"This is the food I bought for you." He heard yesterday that this was the snack the little girl wanted to eat, so it should be this. He didn't know if he bought the right thing, so he asked many people to confirm it.
"They are all what I like. Thank you, Brother Xiaoyan!" The little girl jumped happily.
"As long as you like it." He saw a lot of people setting up stalls outside. With his good looks, he earned some money by standing outside to promote some shops. At first, those shops didn't want him because he was a child, and just gave him some money to tide him over the difficulties. However, after his explanation, they saw how difficult it was for him and agreed to let him help for a day.
He bought a brush, ink, and some paper, preparing to sell paintings tomorrow. His painting skills were quite good, and he also saw those people who set up stalls on the roadside to sell paintings and made a lot of money.
When I told this to the little girl, she became very happy.
In this way, the life of two people relying on each other began.
The two of them gradually became better and better, and they would secretly meet in a secret base every night and became best friends to each other.
Every time, the little girl would leave all kinds of delicious food for little Ji Shiyan. Little Ji Shiyan would go out to sell paintings every day. Because he was a good-looking child and had superb painting skills, his paintings were very good and not expensive, so many people would buy one and take it home to use as a decorative painting.
Every day when he went back, Xiao Ji Shiyan would buy some food and small things for the little girl.
The little girl also learned some knowledge from little Ji Shiyan, becoming smarter, and also learned some basic body-building exercises, making her stronger and able to protect herself.
The two of them often sneak out to eat delicious food, and they are each other's little sunshine.
They smiled at each other more often.
Until one day, Xiao Ji Shiyan suddenly disappeared.
The girl tried desperately to find him, but could not find any trace of him. All that was left were the various items that they had decorated together in their secret base.
At this moment, Su Mu was already in tears.
At first I was shocked listening to this magical story, but the more I listened, the more I felt something was wrong. Why did this little girl feel so familiar? Then I continued listening and thought, wasn’t this herself!
"You are actually that little boy!" Su Mu couldn't stop crying and choked.
"You know, I've been looking for you for a long time but couldn't find you." Su Mu couldn't hold back his emotions anymore and started crying.
That period of time was a rare time of happiness and joy for her. The little boy warmed her time in the orphanage. Later, she successfully established herself among those children with the knowledge and martial arts taught by the boy, and no one dared to bully her anymore.
Later, after being reported, the orphanage ceased to exist.
"I thought you left without saying goodbye and went home." Su Mu hugged Ji Shiyan and cried.
Ji Shiyan patted Su Mu's back and said bitterly, "I really wanted to say goodbye to you at that time, but things happened very suddenly."
As he walked back to the secret base, the road became more and more familiar. Gradually, various shouts, hawkers carrying loads on their shoulders, horse-drawn carriages, and pedestrians appeared. Everything was so familiar.
He had returned home, but he felt very sad. What about that little girl? They didn't even have time to say goodbye.
"We finally meet again." Ji Shiyan hugged Su Mu tightly. He no longer needed to restrain himself and held Su Mu tightly in his arms.
Tears were already welling up in his eyes. During that time, Mumu was his salvation, his sun. Because of Mumu, he was able to quickly become familiar with that society and find peace of mind. She was a ray of warm sunshine in his coldness.
"Don't cry, don't cry." Ji Shiyan's big hands gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Su Mu's eyes, just like she did to that little Ji Shiyan.
"What happened to you later?" Ji Shiyan asked with concern.
"It's okay." Su Mu roughly described what happened next.
The director of this orphanage is actually someone hired by a big family to look after the place. He doesn't care much about things, so he turns a blind eye when his subordinates withhold food or beat and scold the children. As long as the child is safe and sound, it's fine.
The people here are engaged in some gray industries. Good-looking children are taken away by people with special fetishes. Various things on some children are also very useful.
Because of Su Mu's later prestige and power, and because she was indeed disobedient, he also vaguely knew the problem here. Many people came to adopt her, but she kept making a fuss, and she was very serious. Even when she was beaten, she would resist. Others were too lazy to find a disobedient child and get hurt, so they gave up.
"After this place was investigated, it closed down."
Ji Shiyan listened to Su Mu's calm and relaxed words, but he knew in his heart that this process would definitely not be easy.
