The children hopped to his feet and surrounded him.
For a moment, Pei Ming was at a loss for what to do. He had seen so much commotion before, but he was the only one who had never been surrounded by so many children asking for candy. His body seemed stiff, his expression awkward as he looked at Guan Youyou who was laughing at the side blankly.
Of course, the children did not know the value of this card. They helplessly spread out their hands and quickly left.
Pei Ming frowned and crouched down to grab the boy's collar. "Hey, kid. Do you know the value of this card?"
As he spoke, he waved the gold-edged card in his hand. His expression was somewhat fierce.
The child was frightened by his appearance. He covered the corner of his eyes with his small hand. "Wa ~ ~" and started crying loudly.
Pei Ming loosened the boy's collar and looked puzzled. He was already very calm. Normally, this wouldn't be the case.
Well, children are trouble.
Seeing that the child was crying, Guan Youyou immediately walked in front of the boy, squatted down, and hugged him. A hand gently caressed his head, consoling him in a soft voice: "Xiao Yang, stop crying, Yo Yo-jie is here."
"Let's punish this smelly big brother, let's punish him to use that card to buy things for everyone, okay?"
The boy stopped crying and pouted, asking Guan Youyou with some doubt: "Can that card really buy a lot of things?"
"Really? Not only can you buy candy, you can also buy books, buy toys, anything is fine."
"Then can we treat Xiao Qi?" The boy's eyes shone with an innocent light as he looked at Guan Youyou in anticipation.
"Of course, that's fine. That's a universal card. Whatever Little Yang wishes for him can be fulfilled."
The boy was already smiling, and the children who had heard him all ran up to him, holding up their small hands and saying that they too wanted to make a wish.
Guan Youyou smiled and looked at Pei Zi Ming mischievously.
She extended her small hand and spread it out in front of Pei Zi Ming, "Young Master Lu, you won't ruin our children's mood, will you?"
Of course, Pei Ming wasn't such a petty person, but this was the only card that he had just signed after handing over the share transfer agreement to Lu Zhenhua. If he gave it to them, he would definitely be penniless again.
However, looking at Guan Youyou's brilliant smile, Pei Ming felt that he was willing to give her anything, even his life.
Pei Ming handed the black card in his hand to Guan Youyou.
Guan Youyou was happy, she knew the value of this card. Although she was a young miss of the Guan Family, but for a long time, Lin Wanyi had been controlling her pocket money, other than eating and dressing like a young miss, the only other thing she could do was to be the daughter of an ordinary well-off family.
In the past, she had been short of money trying to buy anything for the children of the orphanage. When he wanted to buy large items for them, he could only hide it from his sister and his mother and sell them his luxury goods. Now that she had Lu Yiming's card, she could finally do whatever she wanted. Thinking of this, Guan Youyou couldn't help but smile like a child who had just eaten a candy.
"Young Master Lu, aren't you afraid that I'll swipe your card?" she said mischievously.
Pei Ming looked at him coldly with a disdainful look on his face, "This card will not explode."
Guan Youyou lowered her head and played with the black bank card in her hand.
On the front of the card was written "dibaifirst," and on the left and upper sides of the card were gold trim, showing a very noble credit card.
Guan Youyou took a closer look and saw that there was a diamond embedded in the middle of the card. Although the diamond was small, one could tell that this card was extremely valuable.
"You really give me this?"
Pei Ming snorted, "You don't want it?" "Don't give it back to me."
"Of course, of course!" Guan Youyou, this little money grubber, would not give up on this chance, she said repeatedly as she immediately put the card into her pocket.
Seeing that she was so happy, her gloomy face changed, as if flowers were about to bloom. Pei Ming couldn't help but want to tease her for a while. He rolled his eyes, rested a hand on his cheek, looked thoughtfully at the sky, and said: "I remember you saying that the money you owe me would be paid in instalments."
"When did I owe you money!" Guan Youyou reflexively replied.
"Oh ~ really?" "I remember someone saying that they would give me a sealing fee."
Speaking of the fee for sealing his lips, Guan Youyou thought of that morning, the morning after a night of passion. On the morning after her first affair with Pei, she tried to hide it from her family by offering to use her money to silence Pei.
The dignified young master of the Lu family was not someone that her small amount of money could satisfy. If she really had to pay her, wouldn't that be a bottomless pit? She was afraid that she would never be able to pay it back in her entire life.
She tilted her head, pretending to be trying to remember, "But I remember that everyone still knew about it in the end. I don't need to give you any money to cover your mouth anymore …" She stuck her tongue out at him and ran off mischievously.
The corner of Pei Ming's mouth curled up slightly. He liked to see little idiot acting shamelessly.
… ….
Following closely behind Guan Youyou, Pei Ming walked into the shabby house.
When he reached the end of the corridor, Guan Youyou turned into a room that was facing the north.
As he walked slowly, he felt that this place was so stifling that he found it difficult to breathe. The palpable roof, the dim light, and the musty smell of it all made him, a man with an obsession with cleanliness, feel deeply uncomfortable.
On either side of the hallway was the children's bedroom. Through the half-open door, he could see that the walls of the bedroom had fallen off one by one, and were somewhat dilapidated. There were a total of six crude iron double beds, and the pillows and sheets were all grayish white with one or two stitches left over from the repairs.
Pei Ming had seen many luxurious and luxurious scenes, but had never seen such hardship. Although the Lu Family had always supported poor families, they had only donated money and had never truly entered into their lives.
Looking at the scene before him, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion. He had the thought of starting a charity for orphans.
Pei Ming stood on the spot and thought for a while before suddenly thinking of something. He made a phone call and had someone go to the hospital to check Xiaoyu's surgical records.
… ….
When he turned into the small room at the end of the corridor, he saw a haggard looking man holding Guan Youyou's hand.
He could not help but feel jealous. Just as he was about to go up and teach this man a lesson, he realized that this man was actually only a boy, even younger than Guan Youyou, rather than a man. It was just that his face looked very old, as if he had aged quite a few years.
Seeing that the boy's eyes were white, Pei Ming realized that he was blind and stopped.
His eyes were wide open, and an extremely pained expression could be seen on his face. His countenance was ferocious, and the only word that could be used to describe him was despair.
"Ah Bing, I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of Xiao Yu …" Guan Youyou cried in guilt.
Ah Bing didn't say anything, he only took a deep breath. It was unknown if he didn't want to cry or if he couldn't, but he felt that the boy in front of him had already died. He could feel his despair, but could also feel his calmness.
After a long while, Ah Bing seemed to have calmed down. He patted Guan Youyou's hand, and said with a calm tone of voice. "Miss Guan, it's not your fault.
Guan Youyou cried again after hearing this "wow".
Pei Ming frowned. Although his heart ached, he couldn't disturb them at this time.
"I want to see her one last time, to see her off at her funeral." Ah Bing seemed to be asking for Guan Youyou's consent.
Ye Zichen nodded, and after staring blankly for a second, he realized that the other party couldn't see him. He immediately said, "Alright, I'll come pick you up in two days."
"Xiaoyu has some of my things, can I trouble you to bring them as well?"
"Okay, I will arrange it when I get back and bring it to you." Guan Youyou immediately replied.
… ….
After bidding farewell to Ah Bing and the children of the orphanage, Guan Youyou and Pu Zi Ming set off on their journey back home.
Before he left, Guan Youyou had no choice but to tell the children of Xiao Yu's death.
Hearing the news of the sudden death of elder sister Xiaoyu, who had been taking care of them for many years, the children all cried like they were about to cry.
When the old dean heard this news, he remained silent for a long time. He asked, "Yo, what are you planning to do after this?" He wanted to bring Xiaoyu's ashes back to the orphanage and bury them. He wanted to hold a memorial meeting at the place he was most concerned about. The old dean agreed.
Guan Youyou bade farewell to the big and small orphanages and promised to bring delicious and fun things to the children next time.
… ….
On the way back.
Guan Youyou sat in the front passenger seat with a sad face. During her silence, the atmosphere had become very strange.
Pei Ming wants to amuse her.
"If you ever become a blind old lady, I won't leave you alone." He thought that he was saying words that were deeply moving, but who knew, that when Guan Youyou heard it, she would cry even more sorrowfully.
Because she thought of Ah Bing who was left alone in that old and broken little room. Hearing the news of Xiao Yu's death, he must have felt despair.
Seeing how Guan Youyou was crying, Pei Ming was at a loss for what to do.
He pulled up close, unbuckled his seat belt, unbuckled her seat belt, and threw his arms around her head.
"Sorry, I said the wrong thing." His voice was somewhat deep, but it was also very gentle.
Guan Youyou pounded his chest lightly, not saying a word.
"Let's go back and tidy up Xiaoyu's things and then send it over to him, okay?" Although he didn't really understand how to comfort people, he was an expert in psychology. He knew that only by asking Guan Youyou to do something for Ah Bing at this time would it alleviate the guilt in her heart.
The two of them headed back to the Guan Family's mansion with a soft "hmm" sound.
… ….
At this time, the sky had already darkened.
Along the way, Pei Ming repeatedly asked Guan Youyou if he was hungry, but she was enveloped in a sorrowful mood. She repeatedly shook her head, and he accompanied her to starve.
When they finally arrived at the Lu household, Pei Ming accompanied Guan Youyou in entering.
Just as they entered the door, they bumped into Lin Wanyi who was in a hurry.
When Lin Wanyi saw Guan Youyou, she shot a glance at her and scolded her in a bad mood, "Your sister is already like this, you didn't even know where she went the whole afternoon. You didn't even know how to take care of your sister, and you only knew how to go out to meet a ghost …"
Lin Wanyi wanted to say "messed around" at first, but when she felt the terrifying aura of Pei Zi Ming, she paused and changed her words, "I only know how to date, why don't you go over and see your sister."
Guan Youyou panicked and replied: "Mother, Xiao Yu, she … "He died."
"Oh." Lin Wanyi said indifferently, her eyes dodging, not daring to look at Guan Youyou. She didn't say anything else as she drove off.
Her abnormal behavior was all witnessed by Pei Ming, who was standing at the side.
