Marry Before Love - Chapter 5
The box is unlocked and can be opened with a single push. Inside is a small stack of photos in a transparent bag and three candies. He liked this kind of candy very much when he was a child, but his parents were afraid that he would only give him one big tooth decay in a week, but when he grew up, he had no preference for these milk candies and milky things, and he didn’t expect to see it here.
He picked up the photo in the bag again, which should have been put into the bag from the back, because the back was slightly yellow. The first photo is a group photo, many children of different ages and a few adults crowded together, with the words Venus Orphanage on the back. He looked suspiciously at Cheng Yuan, who was looking at the photo with him. The other party didn’t seem very surprised by the photo.
Noticing the look in his eyes, Cheng Yuan said, “When that woman first became pregnant with Qiao Shu, she asked my father for his last name, but my father gave her a sum of money to sent her away. He was thrown into an orphanage, and he was taken back for no apparent reason until he was seven years old.”
Cheng Yuan clicked on the Qixing orphanage in the photo, “This orphanage is the orphanage where Qiao Shu was thrown away back then.”
It turned out to be like this, no wonder the relationship between Qiao Shu and Cheng’s mother was strange, and the reason why Qiao Shu helped him also meant that he was against his mother.
He took a closer look again, and sure enough, he found Qiao Shu’s figure among a group of children. Qiao Shu grew up almost the same, but he was even thinner, and a small group was squeezed in the middle, which looked extremely pitiful.
The second photo is a single photo of Qiao Shu, probably because he is not used to facing the camera, Qiao Shu’s eyes are a little dodgy, his body is also timid, wearing ill-fitting loose clothes, he is looking more like a poor boy.
He turned to the next photo with a smile, and then his eyes widened slightly. The child in the photo was very familiar. He had seen it in his photo album and met countless times in the mirror. In the photo, Qiao Shu and the child held hands, hiding slightly behind the child, revealing only half of their body, but with an unmistakable happy smile on their face.
But he really didn’t have a single memory of this in his mind. Suddenly, he put down the photo in his hand as if thinking of something, and flipped through the chat record with his mother. If he remembered correctly, it seemed like…
right!
He turned to the record of his brother’s birthday two years ago. At that time, his brother was still in school, so they sent gifts and ordered cakes remotely, and celebrated his birthday in the group. In the video together, his mother accidentally mentioned, He cried and begged for a younger brother. He found it interesting and asked his mother after the video ended.
The mother said that he followed them to the orphanage to do charity work when he was a child, and he played very well with one of the children. Later, he went to play with other people several times. They all wanted to adopt the child home, but he got his wish. Unexpectedly, just as he was about to go through the formalities, he learned that the child was taken by his mother. For this reason, he was crying and begging for his younger brother, and he was sad for a month.
It’s just that time has changed, and he has no impression of his own dark history. H noe didn’t expect Qiao Shu to be the child back then. No wonder he kept helping him by changing the law. It seems that the other party still remembers the time in the orphanage.
He seemed a little heartless, having forgotten everything for a long time. Most of the photos that followed were taken by the two of them together. Looking at these photos, he also vaguely remembered the little boy who didn’t like to talk and was bullied back then, but the mood of wanting to bring the other party home did not follow. Memories came back.
“It seems that Qiao Shu told us this information, and it is very likely for you.” Cheng Yuan silently read the photos and said beside him.
