Chapter 45 Orphanage

"It is about to arrive in Danyang Station. Please prepare your luggage in advance and get off the bus..."

A pleasant female voice rang out. Ji Qianming slowly stood up from his seat with his backpack on his backpack. He looked at the familiar scenery outside the window and felt a little moved.

I've been away for two months without realizing it. Now I've returned to my hometown again, and I feel like I'm a different life.

"Before opening Gou Chen's door, go and cut off your nostalgia for the world."

Ji Qianming gently said the last sentence of the admission notice. He had nothing to nostalgic for at first, but he decided to go back to his hometown and see where he once lived.

After leaving the train station, he directly stopped a passenger tricycle. It was not that he had no money, not to mention the salary he earned for a month and a half, just before leaving, Chen Ge gave him a big red envelope of 2,000 yuan. It was just that Ji Qianming's living environment since childhood made him develop the habit of thrift.

Sitting on the bumpy electric tricycle, a small and old building gradually appeared in front of him. The rusty iron door, the moss-covered wall, and even the big words at the door faded into discoloration.

Changshan Orphanage.

Looking at everything familiar in front of him, Ji Qianming couldn't help but see every bit of childhood in his mind. He jumped off the tricycle and walked quickly into the orphanage with his backpack on his backpack.

Walking through the rugged playground, he walked to the door of the small building, and could vaguely hear the children's play.

"Little Qianming!" A surprise voice came from one side of the corridor. Ji Qianming turned his head and looked, with a bright smile on his face.

"Auntie Li!"

Aunt Li quickly walked forward, gave Ji Qianming a big hug, and then looked at him carefully: "Little Qianming has grown up, much stronger than when he was a child."

"Aunt Li is still as young as before." Ji Qianming said with a smile, but his heart felt sad. Aunt Li in her memory was still full of black hair, now she was white, and her wrinkles on her face were also extremely obvious.

"You are just sweet-mouthed, why are you back today?" Aunt Li covered her mouth and smiled and asked.

"I'm in college, I'm here to see it."

Aunt Li was stunned, and a look of joy suddenly appeared on her face. She clapped her hands and said, "Okay, another college student has been out of our orphanage. Go and see the dean. He is so happy to know the news."

After saying that, he took Ji Qianming to the dean's office, and the wind blew under his feet.

The dean’s office was a cramped small office. The sign at the door could no longer be seen clearly, so Aunt Li knocked on the door.

"Please come in." An old voice came from the house, and Aunt Li walked in quickly.

"Dean, see who is coming!"

Ji Qianming walked in from outside with a little embarrassed, and saw an old man with golden silk eyes sitting behind the shabby desk, holding a newspaper in his hand, his face full of wrinkles and old man spots. Seeing Ji Qianming squinted his eyes and looked at him carefully for a while.

"Is this Xiao Qianming?" The dean spoke tentatively.

Ji Qianming bowed respectfully: "Dean, Qianming is back to see you."

"Dean, Qianming has been admitted to university!" Aunt Li reminded with a smile.

"Oh?" The dean's turbid eyes lit up. He walked to Ji Qianming and laughed, "Okay, I thought Qianming had a future before. Qianming, have you been admitted to a good university?"

Ji Qianming was silent for a while and nodded heavily: "Dean, I am in the best university."

The dean nodded with relief, suddenly remembered something, took out a metal box from the locked drawer on the desk, and slowly placed it on the table.

"Qianming, in fact, even if you don't come back today, I will have to call you back. You are already an adult, and you can tell you some things." The dean's old voice sounded, and Ji Qianming was shocked.

"Director, is it about my parents?" Ji Qianming's mind instantly flashed countless possibilities and he asked hurriedly.

The dean nodded and said, "Because you were too young, I didn't tell you that this may be a bit cruel to you."

Ji Qianming's heart was beating wildly, "parents" were such a strange word to him. What kind of people were they? Why did they abandon their infants and abandon their orphanage to live a hard life without fathers or mothers?

He once hated his parents. No matter what the reason was, since he brought himself to this world, why did he not want to be responsible for himself? As he grew up, his heart became more and more mature, and his hatred for his parents had disappeared. He just thought it was two strangers. However, when he heard the dean mention it again, he still couldn't control his excitement in his heart.

"It was one night in 1999. I was resting in the office when I suddenly heard a cry of a baby. I followed the sound to the door of the orphanage and saw a man in weird clothes knocking on the door with a baby in his arms."

“We’re dressed weirdly?”

"Yes, he was wearing a kind of clothes I had never seen before, like a robe with many mysterious patterns embroidered on it, and the most important thing was that his body was covered with blood."

Ji Qianming felt that his heart was pounding. Who was his father? Is the blood on his body his own or someone else's? Ji Qianming vaguely felt that his father's identity must not be ordinary.

"Later he entrusted you to me and told me that your name is Ji Qianming, and asked me to raise you well. He left you something."

As he said that, he pushed the metal box on the table over, Ji Qianming swallowed and slowly opened it.

Inside is a jade pendant. The jade pendant is very large and carved with a pattern that Ji Qianming had never seen before. It looks like two Yin and Yang fish, but it is far more mysterious and mysterious than that.

Ji Qianming carefully held the jade pendant in his hand, and a cold touch came from his hand, making people feel inexplicably at ease.

"At that time, he also gave me a night pearl as alimony, but I have never been willing to sell it for so many years. Let's give it to you together now." The dean took out an exquisite red box from somewhere, and there was a night pearl inside. A stream of light overflowed from it. You can tell at a glance that it was not an ordinary product.

Ji Qianming was about to refuse, but the dean spoke first: "Don't refuse. Although I am old, I also know that this night pearl is very valuable. The cost of raising you over the years is far from worth its value. When you make a fortune in the future, just come back and see us old people more."

The dean's old face grinned and forced Ye Mingzhu into Ji Qianming's hand. Ji Qianming could only accept it with a wry smile.

"He also asked me to bring you a word."

"What's the matter?"
