Chapter 431

u Yan had not returned to the sofa but was sitting on the high stool beside the partition, staring blankly into space.After a few minutes, Fu Jing placed a bowl of noodles in front of Fu Yan.For some...Li Qin suddenly turned around. Standing at the door was a little girl about half her size. She held onto the doorknob with both hands, tiptoed on her toes, and looked at Li Qin with a confused expression.

She was bathed in sunlight streaming through the window, standing in a halo of light. Her skin was as white and smooth as porcelain, like a little angel.

Xiao Xing suddenly let go of her hand, apparently recognizing Li Qin. She was scared and wanted to run away.

Before she could take two steps, she bumped headfirst into Li Qin who was striding towards her and stopped right in front of her.

"Hmm..."

She touched her forehead about to cry out in pain, but was suddenly embraced by Li Qin.

Little Star screamed in fear, "Let me go! Let me go!"

Li Qin, in a flurry of panic, let go of her.

Her voice attracted the life teacher from not far away, and as a result, the life teacher recognized her as Li Qin, "Ms. Li, what are you doing here"

Li Qin said calmly, "I was doing some business nearby and stopped by to see the children. I forgot what time they were having breakfast."

Life teacher suddenly realized, "Oh, that's how it is, Xiaoxing, this is Ms. Li, you forgot She came here before to see yours, the rabbit doll you like, was bought for you by Ms. Li."

Xiaoxing still didn't dare to approach Li Qin. She quietly walked behind the life teacher, tugging at the corner of her teacher's clothes, and timidly peeked at Li Qin. As she looked, she suddenly felt that Li Qin looked a lot like Sister Yanyan.

Then I'm not so afraid.

Li Qin glanced at the washbasin in the life teacher's hand, "You go busy first."

Life Teacher’s voice, again reminded Xiaoxing, “Don’t be afraid, Ms. Li is a good person.”

A good person

Xiaoxing was fidgeting with her fingers, but this auntie had pushed her last time.

Li Qin crouched before Xiao Xing, her hands hesitating for a few seconds before gently landing on Xiao Xing's shoulder. She spoke in a hushed voice, "Why aren't you eating"

Xiaoxing lowered her head, silent, but couldn't help stealing glances at Li Qin's face.

Why did she have a sense of familiarity when she saw this aunt, a feeling she had never experienced before

That's so strange, why is that

Xiaoxing thought about what happened last time, and her heart felt wronged. Her eyes suddenly became wet, and she questioned her: "Auntie, why did you push me last time"

Li Qin choked back a sob, "Auntie didn't mean to, I just... I just wasn't prepared. Seeing you suddenly..."

"Don't you like me" Xiaoxing tilted her head and asked her.

Li Qin shook her head. "No, I never have been, Xiaoxing. I don't dislike you."

Xiaoxing smiled, “Then I forgive you.”

Li Qin held her little hand and looked carefully. The Lilin Welfare Institute was founded by the Huo family, with conditions much better than other welfare institutes. The life teachers also took meticulous care of everyone.

She took Xiao Xing into the dormitory and sat down on her small bed.

She endured the pain of the whips on her body, holding Xiaoxing in her arms, her voice soft. "Xiaoxing, shall we play a game"

Hearing the word "game," Xiaoxing excitedly exclaimed, "Great!"

"This game is our secret, you promise not to leak it."

Xiaoxing nodded and happily agreed, "Okay!"

Li Qin took out a palm-sized rabbit plush toy from her pocket. It was delicate and beautiful. Xiaoxing loved it very much, “It’s so cute!”

Li Qin smiled and, in a voice almost only Xiao Xing could hear, whispered, "I'll give you a little rabbit. Just call me Mama, okay"ould someone have come in after she fell asleepJust then, Cao Fang walked in, looking surprised. "Miss Fu, you're awake I was just about to bring you some porridge."It turns out to be Cao Fang."The po...
