Chapter 690: The Leg will Grow Out

Chapter 690: The Leg will Grow Out

“Brother, do you know magic just like Mommy?”

Rainy pulled the boy’s hand and asked strangely, “Mommy used to make one sweet become two sweets: one for Mommy and the other for Rainy.”

The boy still did not understand, but the girl smiled immediately. She nodded her head repeatedly.

“Brother is the most amazing. He knows how to make sweets appear. He will turn one sweet into two: one for Guo’er, the other for himself.”

Amidst the chatters of the children, it would be filled with all sorts of imaginations and thoughts. In actual fact, they were still young and simply did not understand that there was no such thing as magic and fairy tales in the world. This world was much more complicated and cruel than they thought it to be. Their so-called ‘magic’ was all lies by the adults. All the fairy tales were pure lies and trickery.

However, these children believed them all without a single suspicion, just like Rainy in the past and this girl with a missing leg.

Rainy thought for a while before taking out two more candy from her pocket and placing it in the boy’s hand.

“Rainy will give Brother another two more so Brother can make more for his sister to eat.”

“Yes.” The girl looked up. “Brother will definitely whip up many sweets for Guo’er.”

The boy placed all the sweets in his hand into his pocket; they were all for his sister.

The director walked over and patted the boy’s head lovingly.

“His name is Lin Qing while the sister is called Guo’er. They were involved in a car accident with their parents. Their parents passed away at the scene, leaving the two of them alone, while Guo’er had injured one of her legs. Both of them are very well-behaved and mature.

“Their father used to be a teacher who taught art. Both of them had also touched art since they were young, under the influence of their father. I think both of them would be very willing.”

Xia Ruoxin walked over and squatted in front of Lin Qing. This child was a bit bigger than Rainy, and the other girl seemed smaller than her.

“How old are you?” she asked.

“Hello, Auntie,” Lin Qing replied politely, “I am ten while Guo’er is almost six.”

Xia Ruoxin patted Lin Qing’s head. After such a huge blow, he could still take care of his sister really well as a brother; it was really rare. Also, both of them look a lot younger than their actual age.

“Auntie would like you to learn how to draw and would even hold an exhibition for you in the future. Would you be willing?”

“Can I earn money from it?” Lin Qing did not care about what he learned or whatever exhibition. All he wanted to know if it was profitable.

“You want to earn money?” Xia Ruoxin did not understand how a child as young as him learned about making money. Even though her Rainy had matured early, she still had no clue of what earning money was. She only knew what money was for and did not think much about it.

“Yes.” Lin Qing held Guo’er’s hand. “The doctor said that as long as Xiao Qing had money, I could get a leg for Guo’er so she could walk by herself in the future.”

Uncontrollably, Xia Ruoxin felt a pang in her heart. She walked over and squatted in front of Guo’er.

“Does Guo’er want to learn how to draw from Auntie? You can make money with that together with your brother in the future.”

“Really?” Guo’er’s eyes lit up. “Can I really earn money?”

“Yes, you can.” Xia Ruoxin believed that if these children could hold an exhibition of some sort in the future, it would be related to charity. As long as Chu Lui could find some random people, the children’s paintings could be sold for quite a substantial amount of money.

“Thank you, Auntie.” Guo’er smiled shyly. This smile really looked like the old Rainy sometimes. However, Rainy was now a bit older and was braver than last time.

After thinking for a while, she took out a card and placed it in Lin Qing’s hand. “This is a new card that Auntie has made, and I have not used it yet. In the future, I will deposit a part of my salary every month. It can help treat Guo’er’s leg and allow her to carry on with the physiotherapy. Auntie does not have a lot of money, but I’ll try my best.”

“Thank you, Auntie.” Lin Qing’s eyes started to tear, but he held them back and did not make a sound. He held his sister’s hand tight and would remember Xia Ruoxin for the rest of his life.

Rainy bit her lower lip before carrying her piggy bank and placing it in front of Lin Qing.

“Brother, this is the money that Rainy had saved up. You can use it for this sister’s illness.” As she said, she squatted down and stared weirdly at the empty half a leg of Guo’er’s.

“Rainy was sick before, too. Mommy said it would not hurt if I—hoo, hoo.” As she was talking, she used all her might to blow at Guo’er’s leg. However, this was not an illness; it was not pain. No matter how many times she blew, it could not be saved. Guo’er had already lost one of her legs.

“Let’s go, baby. We’ll find other children.” Xia Ruoxin helped her daughter up and squeezed her small hand. She still did not want her daughter to find out the harsh truth.

Guo’er’s leg could never be re-grown.

As for why she gave the card to Lin Qing… perhaps it was fate, but she really could not do much. However, she was willing to dedicate a part of her earnings to Lin Qing.

The four years after leaving the Chu family, none of her so-called relatives had helped her. The ones who did were strangers that she had never seen before. They gave her hope, helped her, and gave her and Rainy the chance to live on.

She believed good people would get good karma.

Lin Qing lowered his head and held the card of the savings bank tight, his tears about to fall dangerously.

“Brother.” Guo’er pulled on her brother’s sleeves.

“Brother’s fine.” Lin Qing helped his sister sit in the wheelchair before brushing her hair. “Brother will definitely treat you so you can walk and run just like Brother and become a normal child.”

Guo’er smiled happily, and her eyes shone brightly like the sky.

Just that, her smile had drooped suddenly; and she tugged on Lin Qing’s sleeve and hid behind him. Even though her brother was not very tall and did not have a wide shoulder—ever since they came here, it was always her brother protecting her.

Lin Qing turned back and saw a bunch of people. He pressed his lips tightly together and stood in front of his sister, shielding her from the rest of the world. He would protect his sister, his only relative.

…

Chu Xiang was actually very reluctant to come here and had cried for a really long time as she thought that Granny wanted Mei Mei and not her. After listening to Song Wan’s explanation, she then realized that it was not that Granny did not want her anymore. She just needed to come to the welfare home and visit the other children.

She really hated this place. Even after Granny’s explanation, she still did not believe it so she grabbed tightly to Song Wan’s hand and refused to let go. It was only until after Song Wan talked to the director that she understood.
