When Li Mingxuan woke up the next day, he had a splitting headache. Only vague fragments of the previous night's events remained in his mind; he couldn't recall losing his ID card at all. At that moment, he was filled with worry about the future and helplessness about life.

Meanwhile, the woman slowly woke up in her hotel bed. She opened her eyes, initially confused, her gaze wandering over the unfamiliar surroundings.

"Where am I? How did I get here?" She tried to recall the events of last night, and those painful memories came flooding back like a tide.

Then, she gradually recalled the scene of drowning her sorrows in the bar, and a wave of regret and fear washed over her.

"How could I be so indulgent and foolish?" She bit her lip hard, blaming herself for her impulsiveness.

She sat up and nervously checked her clothes. She breathed a sigh of relief when she found them intact.

"It seems I've met a kind person," she thought to herself with relief, filled with gratitude for the stranger who had helped her.

The woman got up, quickly washed up, and then went to the front desk to check out. The receptionist handed her an ID card and said, "This was left behind by the man who was with you last night."

The woman took the ID card, her gaze falling on Li Mingxuan's photo and information. His handsome and sunny face made her eyes light up, and a sense of gratitude and curiosity welled up in her heart.

"Li Mingxuan," she murmured, then clutched it tightly in her hand before carefully placing it inside her bag.

Stepping out of the hotel, the morning chill made the woman instinctively tighten her coat. She took out her phone and saw that it was turned off, presumably because it was out of battery.

She hailed a taxi and, following the address on her ID card, arrived at an orphanage. She carefully checked the address on her ID card before going inside.

The orphanage was somewhat dilapidated, with paint peeling off in many places on the walls, and a few children running around scattered about. A large locust tree in the square looked half-dead, giving it a desolate feel.

"I never expected him to come from this background."

Looking at the scene before her, and thinking of that handsome, sunny face, the woman felt a mix of emotions. She had intended to return his ID card and thank him, but seeing this, she suddenly felt a lump in her throat. She found a five or six-year-old girl, asked her for directions to the director, and after circling around a bit, finally arrived at the director's office.

The dean was a middle-aged woman in her fifties, with a kind face, half-gray hair, and somewhat worn-out clothes.

"Hello, who are you?" Liu Wenyuan looked up and saw the beautiful woman who came in. A look of amazement flashed in her eyes, and then she asked in confusion.

A captivating smile graced Lin Yue's beautiful face as she spoke in a gentle, sweet voice.

"Are you the dean?"

Liu Wenyuan nodded, looking at the beautiful woman in front of her with some confusion.

"I'm here to return something," Lin Yue said with a smile, then extended a fair and slender hand, on which lay an ID card.

Liu Wenyuan took a look, her expression faltered slightly, and then her doubt deepened.

“Li Mingxuan dropped me off at the hotel last night, but he forgot his ID card, so I brought it over to the address on it,” Lin Yue said with a faint smile.

"This, this..." Upon hearing this, Liu Wenyuan stood up in a panic, a look of surprise appearing on her face.

Li Mingxuan was the most sensible and obedient child she had ever met. He had always helped her take care of her children since he was little, and he also had excellent grades. He never did anything bad.

Even now that he's grown up, he often comes back to visit her and the children, and frequently sends money to the orphanage. Liu Wenyuan treats Li Mingxuan like her own son.

But now, suddenly a woman came with his ID card and said she would take him to a hotel. How could Liu Wenyuan not be alarmed?

Could it be that Li Mingxuan has gone astray, started a relationship with someone and then abandoned them, and now that person has come knocking on his door?

"Auntie, please don't misunderstand. I don't know Li Mingxuan. I drank too much last night and passed out on the roadside. Li Mingxuan took me to my hotel room. He was just trying to help me. He was in such a hurry that he left his ID card at the hotel." Lin Yue saw the dean's expression change drastically and immediately knew that she had misunderstood, so she quickly explained.

Upon hearing this, Liu Wenyuan immediately relaxed, and her complexion gradually returned to normal.

"That's right."

“That’s right, I’ve never met him before, so I couldn’t contact him. I came here based on the address on his ID card. Could you please give him your ID card and tell him thank you for me?” Lin Yue said with a smile.

Liu Wenyuan was completely relieved. She looked Lin Yue up and down. Lin Yue had long hair, a beautiful face, and a tall figure. She wore a light green dress and exuded a cool and noble temperament, just like a TV star.

"No trouble at all. This brat has always been clumsy and forgetful, and he's made you come all this way." Liu Wenyuan said, criticizing Li Mingxuan, but in her heart she was very pleased and satisfied.

"It's only right. I should thank him for his righteous help. Dean, this is my phone number. Please give it to Li Mingxuan and tell him that I want to thank him in person." Lin Yue replied with a smile, randomly taking out a business card and gently placing it on the table.

"Dean, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. Thank you for your help."

Lin Yue bowed slightly to express her gratitude, then turned to leave.

Upon seeing this, Liu Wenyuan quickly stepped forward to see them off, saying words of urging them to stay.

"You're leaving already? Why don't you stay for lunch before you go?"

Lin Yue smiled and shook her head, saying she had other things to do, and then left with a graceful sway.

Watching the figure gradually disappear into the distance, Liu Wenyuan smiled and occasionally uttered words of praise. When she turned around and picked up the business card on the table, she was immediately surprised.

"Wow, this girl is really a star!"

The neatly printed business card featured rows of light gold lettering, with "Lin Yue - Top Agent" prominently displayed in the most eye-catching position. There was also a striking blue logo in the upper right corner, and four smaller characters below: Starlight Entertainment.

……

After leaving the orphanage, Lin Yue turned around and glanced at the dilapidated courtyard behind her. A strong feeling suddenly welled up in her heart, and she wanted to learn more about the man who had helped her in her predicament.

At this moment, Li Mingxuan was completely unaware of what had happened at the orphanage. He was cooking porridge with disheveled hair and a tired look on his face.
