Hao Xiaohong lowered her gaze slightly, her eyes darting around nervously.

With ulterior motives, she certainly wasn't there to genuinely help.

It's the weekend, the kindergarten is closed, and the children are all at the orphanage.

Just then, the children came out to play freely.

When Hao Xiaohong's malicious gaze fell on Xiaojun, her eyes lit up.

She had seen his photo beforehand.

He naturally knew that this Xiao Jun was his target this time.

"Ouch! My stomach hurts, I need to go to the bathroom."

Hao Xiaohong suddenly clutched her stomach and made an excuse to leave.

The dormitory supervisor and the other two volunteers glanced at her briefly and then ignored her.

……

Xiao Jun sat alone on the bench.

He gently swung his legs, his eyes fixed straight ahead.

Not a word.

very quiet.

A hint of worry, beyond his years, flickered in his eyes.

He was homesick.

Hao Xiaohong secretly moved closer to him and sat down next to him.

Then, she turned her head and looked at him with a smile, "Little friend, your name is Xiaojun, right?"

Xiao Jun was a little reserved and shy, "Mm!"

"Your dad will be coming to pick you up soon, you must be so happy!"

Xiao Jun looked bewildered. "Auntie, why do you say that? There's still no news of Dad."

The voice gets quieter and quieter.

It exudes a sense of loneliness.

How he wished that what this strange woman said was true!

"What?" Hao Xiaohong feigned surprise. "Didn't Yan Niannian tell you? She's already found out about your father, He Baoli."

"Okay, I get it now."

Hao Xiaohong paused, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping herself.

Although the expressions are exaggerated, they are enough to fool children.

Sure enough, Xiao Jun panicked. He grabbed Hao Xiaohong's hand, "Auntie, what do you know? Tell me quickly! Has Niannian's mom really found out about my dad?"

"Yes!" Hao Xiaohong nodded. "But she didn't contact your father."

"Do you know why?"

Xiao Jun shook his head.

"Because Yan Niannian still wants to use you kids to make money. If you are all sent home, there will be no orphans in the orphanage, and how will those big shots donate money?"

"As for whether you are happy or not, she doesn't care at all."

“No, Nian Nian’s mother is not that kind of person.”

Xiao Jun exclaimed in surprise.

He couldn't accept it for a while.

If it weren't for Yan Niannian, he would have died long ago.

"Oh! Silly child, you're too naive. You don't understand the utilitarian world of adults." Hao Xiaohong looked at him with pity, raised her hand, and gently rubbed his head.

Then, she changed the subject and deliberately hinted, "Xiaojun! If you want to go home, you can only fight for it yourself. If that doesn't work, go and make a scene with Yan Niannian."

"do you know?"

After saying that, Hao Xiaohong left.

Xiao Jun stood there, his eyes filled with confusion.

Is what this strange auntie said true?

He didn't know, he just... really wanted to go home.

So after thinking about it, Xiaojun jumped off the chair and ran straight into the building.

He approached the dormitory supervisor, "Teacher, could I borrow your phone? I want to call Aunt Zhang."

The dormitory supervisor was taken aback.

Should I call Zhang Xintong?

"What do you want to call Aunt Zhang about?" the dormitory supervisor asked, puzzled.

"I..." Xiao Jun's eyes flickered, "...I have something to do..."

Hao Xiaohong glanced at it and quickly jumped in to chime in, "Since the kid wants to borrow the phone, just lend it to him! Why ask so many questions?"

"Hurry up, this place hasn't been cleaned up yet."

"All right!"

Urged on by the other party, the dormitory teacher couldn't hesitate any longer and handed the phone to Xiaojun.

Then she followed Hao Xiaohong and the others to the side to tidy up.

Xiao Jun also moved to the side.

Holding his phone, he let out a long sigh.

He had previously heard Yan Niannian tell Zhang Xintong to help him find his relatives.

and so……

If there were any news, Aunt Zhang would definitely know.

After unlocking his phone and finding Zhang Xintong's number, Xiaojun dialed it...

……

At this moment, Zhang Xintong was with He Xue.

He Xue and Yan Niannian are close friends, and Zhang Xintong is also a good friend of Yan Niannian.

Things cluster together.

Therefore, He Xue and Zhang Xintong became fast friends and hit it off immediately.

In addition, He Xue was out of danger and wanted to celebrate, so the two found a private room in a bar and sat down to drink.

While they were chatting, Zhang Xintong's phone suddenly rang.

She took it out and looked at it.

It was the dormitory supervisor calling.

Could something have happened at the orphanage?

Not daring to be careless, Zhang Xintong quickly answered the phone.

But it was Xiaojun's voice that came from inside, "Aunt Zhang, you've found my dad, haven't you?"

Completely unprepared, Zhang Xintong was stunned.

Her brows were furrowed with worry.

This Ho Po-lee is truly a complicated person.

Hey!

For Xiaojun's sake, let's continue to leave him in the orphanage for now.

"Xiaojun, nothing of the sort happened. Don't overthink it. You know, the orphanage is a warm and loving family, and every one of us loves you very much."

"Aunt Zhang, have you really not found my father?"

"No, I already said no. Okay, I have something to do, I'm hanging up."

Forced by circumstances, she had to deceive a child, which naturally made her feel bad, so her attitude towards others was noticeably worse.

Zhang Xintong went to hang up the phone.

The signal was bad, and the call interface froze.

After taking a sip of beer, He Xue looked at Zhang Xintong curiously, "Tongtong, you're such a skilled hacker, didn't you really find the child's father?"

"found it."

Zhang Xintong remained silent in the face of He Xue.

"Then why not contact the child's father and have him take the child away?"

"Oh! Xiao Jun... it's better to leave him at the orphanage for now."

With that, the call was finally disconnected.

But Xiao Jun on the other end of the phone heard it all, clearly and completely.

His young face was filled with shock.

Then, biting his lip, Xiao Jun's eyes reddened.

Yan Niannian lied to him.

fake.

It's all fake!

After putting down his phone, Xiaojun ran out crying.

Meanwhile, Zhang Xintong was completely unaware of the phone bug, and by a twist of fate, Xiaojun misunderstood.

Seeing the hesitant look on Zhang Xintong's face, He Xue became even more curious, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the child's father?"

"Okay!" Zhang Xintong nodded.

Her face was filled with anger and righteous indignation. "That Ho Po-lee is a beast."

"He lost a lot of money gambling, so he borrowed money from loan sharks. The interest kept piling up and he couldn't pay it back, so he chained his wife to the bed and then took one man after another into the bed..."

"Years of torment have caused Xiaojun's mother to become mentally unstable."

"One day, taking advantage of He Baoli's inattention, he hit him with an axe and injured him. Then he ran out naked and was hit by a car and died."
