I transmigrated into the villain's white moonlight, but the protagonist is my brother.

The lunchbox was opened, revealing rice mixed with shredded potatoes and eggplant soaked in sauce, topped with a chicken leg. It looked delicious.

But He Fuguo could only sigh.

It wasn't that he wouldn't let the children eat meat, but when he thought about how the other children in the yard ate so well every day, while He Liang was reluctant to eat meat every day, he felt it was unfair!

Holding his anger in his heart, He Fuguo's face darkened. He muttered some reprimands before picking up his spoon with one hand and starting to eat.

He Liang didn't react much to his father's scolding; he just smiled and served He Fuguo water.

He is an extremely emotionally stable person.

Xie Yan, who was listening to the conversation between the father and son, also figured out something. It turned out that this unassuming boy actually ran an orphanage, and it seemed that he was about to go out of business because he didn't have any children.

She squinted her eyes.

...This is a good thing!

She's been thinking lately about what will happen to the children in the orphanage if Xu Mingli is really arrested; someone has to take care of them.

After all, according to the original plot, there are not many good people in the charity association where Xu Mingli works. Even if Xu Mingli falls, there are still others, but those people are definitely not good.

Isn't this a ready-made solution right in front of you?

"Big brother, do you run an orphanage? Do you know Director Xu of the Sunshine Orphanage?"

Xie Yan looked at He Liang with shining eyes, and at some point let go of Shen Yan's hand.

Upon hearing the voice, He Liang turned around and saw a cute little girl in a school uniform. A smile immediately appeared on his face.

He already had a very youthful, baby-faced appearance, and when he smiled, he had two shallow dimples, making him look even younger and more approachable.

"I know him. I occasionally go to Dean Xu's place to learn, but I haven't been lately, after all..."

He Liang only said half of what he wanted to say, since a lot of things had happened on Dean Xu's side, and the little girl probably wouldn't understand even if he told her.

The recent arrest of that pervert in the Haoting residential community has caused a huge uproar, involving several children, most of whom were adopted from the Sunshine Welfare Home. There must be something fishy going on here.

The police thoroughly investigated the Sunshine Welfare Home, took Xu Mingli in for questioning, and checked her private accounts, but found nothing unusual.

The only unusual thing was the large donations that the welfare home's public account received from time to time. The police sensed something was amiss, but Xu Mingli's accounts were very well done, and the donations were used where they were needed.

Therefore, even if the police sensed something was wrong, they had no choice but to release the person if they lacked sufficient evidence at the moment.

Xu Mingli was released after only 48 hours of investigation. On the surface, the Sunshine Welfare Home seemed to be the same as before, without any apparent impact.

However, after that, He Liang never went to study with Xu Mingli again.

He had a gut feeling that something was wrong. After all, according to the police report, at least the security guards and other staff at the Sunshine Welfare Home were problematic. It was all due to Xu Mingli's inadequate supervision that such a thing happened to the child right under her nose.

That's absolutely absurd.

"Hmm... but why are you asking this, little sister? Have you ever been there?" He Liang asked, changing the subject from what had just been said.

Xie Yan nodded, "I've been there a few times before, and I even spoke with the headmistress a few times—"

"Xie Yan".

Xie Yan was rubbing her hands together, ready to get some information out of He Liang, when she felt someone tug at her clothes from behind, the force was small and light.

It was Shen Yan calling her.

Xie Yan immediately turned to look at him and saw his two big eyes staring at her as he softly said, "I'm thirsty."

Upon hearing this, Xie Yan immediately forgot about the usual pleasantries, took two new cotton swabs to moisten his lips, and comforted him, telling him to bear with it and that he could drink water in the afternoon.

The little girl was quite young, but her movements were incredibly skillful, and her tone was gentle. The interaction between the two was particularly heartwarming.

Looking at the two of them, He Liang couldn't help but tease them.

"You two siblings have such a good relationship. Little brother, look how good your sister is to you. Other people's sisters bully their brothers every day."

This is true; children at this stage are the most mischievous, especially little girls who develop earlier than little boys, and it is very common for older sisters to bully their younger brothers.

When mistaken for siblings, Xie Yan didn't say anything, but instead smiled with narrowed eyes. However, she didn't expect that Shen Yan would actually give a low "hmm".

Hmm? Does this mean she's admitting she's been good to him?

Xie Yan smiled even more, reached out and stroked Shen Yan's soft hair a few times, and said, "Good girl."

She paused for a moment, then said even more quietly, "It would be even better if you could call me 'sister'."

Shen Yan looked away, refusing to look at her.

The lunch break was short, so Xie Yan quickly ate her fried noodles, said goodbye to Yang Huiyun, and went back to school.

Before leaving, Yang Huiyun told her that she could go straight home after school and didn't need to come over, and that the police would send someone to take care of her later.

Xie Yan could only say "okay".

In the afternoon, the police station sent a young woman who said she was Officer Zhou's sister to take over the care of Shen Yan until he was discharged from the hospital.

Only then did the He family father and son realize that Shen Yan was not Yang Huiyun's child, but an orphan.

She was an orphan who had just been rescued from that shocking and bizarre case that had gripped the entire city.

He Liang's expression immediately changed, and even He Fuguo, who had never liked children, couldn't help but feel sorry for them.

No wonder this child is afraid of the dark; he must have been abused.

Oh, what a tragedy.

"Then I'll have to trouble you. This child doesn't like to talk, so please take good care of him."

Yang Huiyun held the young woman's hand and explained things to her carefully.

No matter what, Shen Yan was a child who had lived in her house for a while. She was usually quiet and well-behaved, and she ate and slept very well without causing any trouble...

Oh wait, I think I need to worry about sleeping lately.

But all in all, he was a very well-behaved and pitiful child, and Yang Huiyun still felt a little reluctant to part with him.

After this surgery and discharge from the hospital, Shen Yan will probably have to return to the orphanage. If she is adopted by someone else in the future, I'm afraid I will never see her again.

I just hope that Shen Yan will meet a good family next time.

"Don't worry, sister. I will definitely take good care of him. My brother has told me about his situation, and I understand."

Zhou Yuting was only in her early twenties, with clear eyes, and like Officer Zhou, she looked like a righteous person.

Seeing that she seemed reliable, Yang Huiyun felt relieved.

She couldn't help but look back as she left.

Shen Yan lay on the small bed, his dark eyes staring blankly at the ceiling, not looking at her.
