After rebirth, my new love and I made it real

"Xu Mushi, if you have been to a children's welfare home, you will know that healthy children are a minority. Most of them are deaf-mute, sick, or need surgery or long-term medication..."

"The welfare home mainly relies on government support and social assistance, but if the social assistance it receives is not enough, then food, clothing and other expenses will be very tight. It is even more common for it to have no money for medicine or surgery when it is sick."

"There, I had a friend who I grew up with. His nickname was Azhi. He was two years younger than me, not very tall, and always looked malnourished. When I was sixteen, he got a rare disease and needed a lot of money for surgery."

The children who grow up together there are a family and call each other brother and sister or younger brother and sister.

Azhi called him brother.

After learning about the high salary from his boss, Lu Siheng came up with the idea of ​​saving money by working to pay for his brother's surgery.

He could save enough money for the operation in just one year.

So after going to Country M with that boss, he worked very hard.

Even though he was doing hard labor, and even though the goods he carried every day were much taller than those of a person, he never felt tired because he had hope in his heart.

He was even grateful to his boss for giving him such a job and the opportunity to help his brother.

Even though the boss said that the performance was not good and that the salary would have to be delayed until the end of the year, he didn't care.

There were many other children of similar age there, from various countries.

After working hard day after day, the end of the year, which he had been looking forward to the most, arrived.

He thought he could get the money, and he even called the dean and said that he would soon get the money for Azhi's surgery, and once he got the money, he could get treatment.

He even planned that if he had extra money, he could buy some living and study supplies for the new children in the orphanage.

"But when the day came to pay the salary, the boss ran away."

After nearly a year of hard work, in the end, I got nothing.

Lu Siheng was heartbroken.

Xu Mushi looked at him with a complicated expression, "I only know that you grew up in an orphanage, but I didn't know you had experienced this kind of thing."

Such things are common in society.

Lu Siheng just suffered from his youth and ignorance.

He thought the world was too beautiful.

Lu Siheng clasped his fingers together, his expression calm, "Actually, now it seems like that incident wasn't such a big setback."

"It's just a pity that Azhi died in the winter of that year."

Actually, it’s not his fault.

No one blamed him.

Because he had no obligation to pay for the surgery. The dean was not able to raise the money, so how could he, a child, do it? And earning money for the surgery for Ah Zhi was just a sudden thought for him. Besides, even if the disease was operated on, the success rate was less than 10%.

He comforted himself while blaming himself.

He thought more than once, if he had gotten the money, why would the boss cheat him? Why did he run away? If the boss had a little more sense of responsibility, would Azhi not have died?

While he blamed himself, he also resented his boss and even hated the world, thinking that it was full of bad people.

Hatred and regret kept entangled in his heart, making him feel that there was no light in this world.

"My ability to withstand stress was really poor at that time. After this incident, I didn't want to go back to China. I had no money to go back, and I didn't know how to go back." Lu Siheng said, "I wandered the streets of Country M like a wandering soul. Sometimes I thought, I might as well die on the side of the road."

It was a cold winter day and he had no money to buy clothes. He was still wearing the thin coat he wore when he arrived. He sat on the side of the road with a dull look in his eyes for the entire day.

That was the first time he was so disappointed with himself and the world.

His enthusiasm for this world seemed to be destroyed.

"But that's not scary. What's scary is that I developed a desire for revenge and fell into depravity," Lu Siheng said as he recalled. "After failing to earn money through labor for the first time, I started to work as a pickpocket at the train station."

"I stole wallets, cell phones, and did the most vile things, exchanging the stolen things for food and drink, and I became addicted to it."

They are like rats in the gutter who are afraid of the light and become guilty and mean when they see the police.

"Now that I think about it, I was probably confused at the time, or maybe I just let myself go. I had already received an admission letter from a top university in China. As long as I returned to China and finished college, I could at least be a normal person after graduation, instead of living a miserable life like this."

"But I just didn't want to go back. At first I didn't have the money to go back. Later I stole the money to go back to my country, and I didn't want to go back anymore."

Xu Mushi looked at him, feeling indescribable emotions in his heart, "It's hard to imagine that the current Chief Strategy Officer of Lu Group has also had such a dark time."

Lu Siheng shrugged, "That kind of day didn't last long. As the saying goes, if you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet."

One day, he failed.

The man whose wallet he stole just shouted at the top of his lungs, "Help me catch that thief!", and the next second, he was pinned to the ground by two middle-aged men.

The man broke his hand that was used to steal things.

The man kicked him in the head and spit on him, cursing him with the most offensive words, saying that he was a scum and that he deserved to die because he could do anything good instead of coming out to hurt others.

The onlookers clapped and cheered, saying that he deserved to be beaten so that he would learn his lesson.

Who told him to steal? He was wrong.

For a moment, he himself felt that perhaps he really deserved to die.

"One of my arms was broken, so I couldn't continue stealing. I simply stopped stealing because I didn't plan to live anymore. I was walking on the side of the road, hoping to hit a random car."

"Then I set my sights on a tank truck because no one could survive being crushed by such a huge vehicle. When it drove over, I walked towards it with a dead heart."

"The truck didn't have time to brake. Even if the driver had stepped on the brakes, the truck would have hit me due to inertia because of its heavy weight."

Xu Mushi's heart was lifted when he heard this, "Did you really want to die at that time?"

Lu Siheng laughed, "Yes, I was determined to die at that time."

“But I didn’t die.”

Xu Mushi opened his eyes wide and looked at him, "Why?"

Lu Siheng laughed, "Because Lin Qingran appeared out of nowhere and pulled me back by my clothes."
