Vol. 1 - Ch. 58 - The person I trust most

When Ye QiuXue saw the orphanage HuMing had mentioned, she realized that the boy was indeed doing something significant.At first, she suspected that HuMing was making up an excuse and had managed to find a reputable welfare institute in the city to trick her.

However, as she gazed upon the rundown structure in front of her, the words she had planned to utter became trapped in her throat.

Her eyes flickered as she observed the boy encircled by a group of children.

HuMing cradled a child in his arms, his face beaming with an undeniable joy.

In addition, the children clung to HuMing in admiration, reluctant to part with him.

Such genuine affection was not something that could be faked.

Without realizing it, Ye QiuXue found herself smiling, radiating warmth, as she looked at HuMing with a softened gaze.

She couldn't help but acknowledge that she had never seen such a caring HuMing before.

He was opposite to the arrogant person she knew from school as if he had been possessed.

And Ye QiuXue was not the only one surprised.

Han YunXi's mouth was slightly ajar, and her expression displayed a hint of confusion. It was evident that she had not expected HuMing's popularity with the children.

Given HuMing's past actions, it's difficult for Han YunXi to fathom that he would engage in such behavior!

"Oh, we have two new students today. Is little Xin not here?"

The old director's wife approached the two girls with a friendly expression.

She welcomed them into the courtyard. Han YunXi appeared somewhat reserved, while Ye QiuXue followed openly.

The interior was similar to the exterior, but it was equipped with all the essential learning tools.

"What is your relationship with Ah Ming? This is the first time I've seen him bring anyone other than little Xin here."

"Um, grandma, are you referring to KangXin?"

"Yes, yes, do you know little Xin too? She is a wonderful child and has helped us solve many problems."

Han YunXi was at a loss for words, her mouth slightly agape.

HuMing and KangXin had done so much while she was unaware.

"I'm Han HuMing's friend."

"I'm HuMing's sister!"

Upon hearing their responses, the old director's wife had a sudden realization. However, just as she was about to speak, HuMing showed up.

"Grandma, you're not talking bad things about me, are you?"

"You're so well-behaved. How could I say anything bad about you? But why did you bring your classmates here?"

The old director's wife spoke with a mixture of delight and reprimand. 

However, HuMing first looked at Ye QiuXue before saying.

"I brought them to persuade the old director to see a doctor." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ NʘvᴇlFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

"Hey, you know that old man's character; even ten oxen couldn't drag him back!"

When talking about this, the old director's wife became angry.

The director appeared to be in poorer health than before. She wanted to take him for a check-up, but he refused because the children here still needed care, and he couldn't leave.

HuMing came to persuade him, saying he would watch over the children. But the old director said HuMing couldn't do that for even himself and should hurry home.

Though his words were well-intentioned, the old director's wife found them unpleasant.

HuMing was kindly trying to help, but he was driven away!

"That is why I brought a good helper this time!"

HuMing gave Ye QiuXue a look, but her expression remained unchanged, as if she didn't get HuMing's hints.

In fact, HuMing wasn't very confident himself, as this matter still needed Ye Qiuxue's approval.

The wife of the old director cast a curious gaze toward Ye QiuXue, carefully assessing the remarkable and elegant young lady before her.

Out of all the girls the old director's wife had encountered, she was indeed exceptional. However, she couldn't grasp why HuMing referred her as a good helper.

"Ah Ming, this young lady..."

"Grandma, Ye Quixie is the president of our school's Student Council, a top student in the city, excelling in both academic achievements and athletics. Also, she is the person I trust most in school!"

Ye QiuXue glanced at HuMing, and his words brought a sense of happiness to her.

Meanwhile, Han YunXi's lips pursed together, wearing a bit of a sad face.

She quickly glanced at HuMing, filled with regret for not appreciating him before. If she had shown more concern for him in the past, could the person he mentioned have been her?

HuMing stared at Ye QiuXue with genuine sincerity, prompting a helpless sigh from Ye QiuXue before smiling at the old director's wife.

"Grandma, don't worry. Although HuMing isn't very reliable, as he said, I can help with this matter."

"Ah, this!" The old director's wife has indeed not expected HuMing to bring the student council president of his school.

In addition, upon hearing HuMing's introduction, she became aware of how remarkable this young lady was.

"No, no, this is too much trouble for you. Actually, it's not a big deal. We can just find some free time to go for a check-up."

"It's no trouble. If we schedule it for the weekend, I can come to take care of these children. I can also help with their studies, though I may not be as experienced as the old director."

The old director's wife genuinely thought Ye QiuXue was being modest. How could the city's top student fail to teach those children properly?

However, Ye QiuXue had spoken honestly. She is skilled in studying, not in teaching others.

There is a notable distinction between these two.

HuMing stepped forward, supporting the old director's wife's shoulder, and said with a smile,

"Oh, it's no big deal, really."

"No, I still need to speak with the old man. Knowing his temperament, if he discovers I agreed without his permission, he will most likely scold me to death."

The old director's wife shook her head as she headed toward the classroom.

Watching her retreating figure, HuMing placed his hands on his hips and smiled faintly.

Ye QiuXue looked at HuMing, who she thought had only recently turned a new leaf. But it turned out that he had been doing admirable things for quite some time.

She felt that by accompanying HuMing this time, she might get to know another side of him.

Meanwhile, Han YunXi grabbed HuMing's arm, shaking it.

"Brother, did you forget about me? Although my grades aren't as good as the president's, I can also help you!"

Han Yunxi pursed her lips together, and her expression clearly showed her displeasure.

In HuMing's original plan, Han YunXi was not there. She being here today was purely coincidental.

But seeing her look of grievance, HuMing found it amusing.

This girl is rushing to do hard work, huh?

"YunXi, this is hard work. Are you sure you want to do it?"

"Yes!"

Hearing HuMing's words, Han YunXi's face instantly brightened.

'A Chance!'
