Chapter 16: Supporting the Yangguang Orphanage

ped away from the camera, made a phone call to have charity workers quickly forward and verify their donation slip.With such a commotion, Director Liu naturally saw it. When things weren't so serious...Aunt Su, we're back!" A few older children came back with their backpacks. Before even entering the house, their voices could already be heard.

In the office, Aunt Su quickly wiped away her tears and dabbed them off of Xinxin's face. She reminded Xinxin, "Xinxin, remember what your soft-soft sister said!"

Perked up, he limped to the door, placed his hand on the doorknob, took a deep breath, and replaced his face with a loving smile. He turned the lock and pushed the door open.

"Welcome back! Come and see, come and see, who's back!" Auntie Su stood at the top of the stairs, one hand holding onto the railing, the other waving at the children with their backpacks coming up from downstairs.

Before they could even react, Dodo and Pingping skipped over, pulling Baby along with them. They said excitedly, "Soft-soft sister is back! Soft-soft sister is back!" Even though Baby couldn't speak, she was beaming with happiness.

"Really Soft-soft sister She's back Wasn't she studying at university abroad"

"Where's Sister Soft Where is she Just so happens I have a few problems I can't solve today, could she explain them to me!"

"Soft soft sister, soft soft sister~"

The more outgoing children were already shouting, while the more introverted ones stood on the side twisting their fingers, but their expressions betrayed their happiness. Looking up at the building, there was a twinkle in their eyes like stars.

“I'm here! Here I come, it seems you all missed me!”

Ruan softened and led Xinxin out of the office on the second floor. As they passed Aunt Su, Ruan let go of Xinxin's hand, gesturing for Xinxin to go down first. He then helped Aunt Su downstairs.

"Soft Sister! I miss you so much!"

"Soft soft sister, you're back Are you leaving again"

"Aren't you talking nonsense SoftSoft sister still has to go to school, she must be thinking of us today, right"

"I'm just asking."

"By the way, Soft-Soft Sister, are you back this time because of Grandma院長's illness"

Ruan softly embraced the past, they hadn't seen each other for a long time. This group of kids were really tough. Because of Grandma院長's illness, they all thought about dropping out of school to work and earn money to pay for Grandma院長's medical treatment.

"That's right! But you don't have to worry, I've already paid the headmaster's medical bills. Your current mission is to study hard and listen well, alright!"

Auntie Su also chimed in: "That's right, you all have to study hard. Your Soft Sister has brought you so many learning materials, you must study them well. When you grow up and succeed, you must repay and protect your Soft Sister!"

"We know!" The children replied loudly, they would study hard. Now the grandmother, Auntie Su, and Soft Sister were taking care of them. In the future, it would be their turn to protect and take care of them.

No one could have imagined that years later, they would all become outstanding figures in their respective fields.

In media interviews, they constantly mention their upbringing at the Sunshine Orphanage and the orphanage director, Auntie Su, as well as their most beloved Soft Sister.

Ruan softened smiled brightly, so beautiful that it dazzled the eyes of this group of children in front of her. These children had long been Ruan softened's little sister-worshippers, each one was their elder sister's heaven and earth.

At this time, Ruan Soft suddenly noticed the boy holding a backpack at the back of the crowd. Ruan Soft had always called him MoMo because the child had never liked to talk since he was little. It was probably because of a congenital eye condition.

Ruan softened forward, touched MoMo's head gently, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong, MoMo Why don't you play with everyone else Did they bully you"

Before MoMo could even speak, the little ones, afraid of being wrongly accused, rushed to speak first.

“We didn't bully him! Soft soft sister! We all remember what you said, we can take care of him!”

One by one, they tilted their little heads back, looking proud. Even the older ones nodded in agreement with a look of certainty.

"Alright, alright, you're all good children. Go play first, I have something to ask MoMo." Ruan Soft smiled at the group of children.

After they left, Ruǎn turned back to Mòmò, her voice softer than before. "Mòmò, tell your older sister, what's wrong Why are you so unhappy Don't you like Sister Ruǎn the most"

Mo Mo was still silently bowing his head, not saying a word. Ruan Rou sighed softly and didn't force him anymore, just gently hugged him, stroking his head. In fact, Ruan Rou could also guess the reason, it should be because of his eyes.

After a long while, just as Ruan Rou thought he wouldn't speak anymore, Mo Mo quietly spoke up: "Sister, do you ever feel that I'm useless Do you ever wish you didn't have me"

"How could that be Why would you think that We're so handsome, the prettiest boys in the whole courtyard. And we're talented with our hands and kindhearted too."

"Yes, but... I won't be able to see anything in the future, I won't be able to do anything, and I'll even hold you back."

She has always known about her condition, knowing that she would slowly become unable to see anything. Then, she would become a burden.

He didn't want this. He also wanted to be a great person in the future, to repay them. But because he had these eyes, he was destined to become a burden.

"No, MoMo, trust your sister, I have money now and will definitely be able to cure you. Don't be disheartened, I'm still waiting for you to protect me!"

Ruǎn Yuan originally thought that MoMo was just insecure because of his eyes, but she didn't expect him to have thought so much about it.

"Really Sister! Will I get better Won't it cost a lot of money Maybe we shouldn't treat it at all."

Having silently heard Ruan Soft's words, a spark of hope ignited within him for a fleeting moment. However, upon considering the exorbitant cost involved, he retreated once more.

"Don't worry, I'll find a way to cure all of your illnesses. You said I'm a little fairy, right So I have magic! That's why you should study hard, grow up happily, and don't think too much about it, okay!"

He silently nodded, "Okay, sister. I will grow up well and in the future, we will protect you!"

Those who were supposed to be out having fun but stayed huddled on the other side of the door, all silently exchanged glances and chuckled softly.

Seeing that it was almost dinner time, Ruan Soft stopped Aunt Su from going to cook. She ordered some takeout on her phone instead. She let the older one play with the younger one for a while and then took Aunt Su aside to talk about what she had originally wanted to say.

"What's wrong, Ruannuan Pull me aside. Is there something you want to say"

"Su Yi, you see, I'm not poor anymore. I have several shops now. I remember you used to bring the children here to make some small handicrafts and sell them. What they made was really beautiful. I want to give your orphanage a shop so that you can sell things and keep it running."

Aunt Su was first surprised to learn that Ruan Rou still had several shops. Before she could process this, she heard Ruan Rou say that she wanted to donate one of the shops to the orphanage and quickly refused.

"You've already done so much for the orphanage, this simply won't do. We can't let you do this, there are so many children here who need looking after."

"Auntie Su, don't worry and refuse right away. If you feel overwhelmed, just rent out the shop or hire two people. You must keep the shop."

"There are several disabled children in the orphanage, we need to think about their future. You could teach them your skills, and then we could start a business together. Consider it an investment from me."

Su Yi also thought about it, looking at Ruan Ruan's so determined eyes, she still agreed, "Then if the shop opens up, you have to take half of the profits, or else I won't agree."

"Okay, we'll draft the contract then." Ruan Rou said this and immediately started smiling cheekily at Aunt Su.

After everyone finished dinner, they played for a while longer. As it got late, Auntie Su urged Ruan Ruan to head home quickly.

Before leaving, Ruan softened and said to Aunt Su, "I want to raise money for the sick children in the orphanage. We'll treat those who can be treated, and I'll find other ways for those who can't."

Auntie Su knew that Ruan Rou was a strong-willed person who had her own ideas, so she nodded.

"Alright, let's schedule a hospital check-up for you. We'll have to wait until the head doctor is discharged though. And don't push yourself too hard, and don't be fooled into giving away all your money."

When Ruan's soft car arrived, she said goodbye after that, and then drove away. Aunt Su took the children to the door to see her off, each of them waving their arms with all their might until she was out of sight. at all.He directly fired back, not caring at all about Lu Weiwei and the power of the Lu family behind her.After all, in her eyes, the assets of the richest man in City M were nothing like that.I com...
