keep the moon

Soyaodu District, a slum area

Jiang Shouyue did not reveal his whereabouts to anyone, nor did he go looking for Lu Xiuming.He understands that what he is doing now is very important, and after he and Draper divorced in a few days, he will completely lose power. If he contacts Lu Xiuming at this time, it will only hurt the other party.

When Jiang Shouyue found the orphanage based on the information, he explained the situation to him, saying that he had already made an appointment to adopt a child, so he was welcomed in by the staff.There are not many orphanages in the slums. After all, it is such a place, and the probability of children being abandoned is high. When Jiang Shouyue entered the orphanage, he could see many children, but most of them looked dull. Seeing Jiang Shouyue When he came in, he just stared blankly, with a bit of fear even appearing on his face.

Jiang Shouyue had seen many desperate and gloomy people in his previous life, but such a child was extremely rare. Jiang Shouyue tentatively approached the girl closest to him.Seeing Jiang Shouyue approaching, the girl subconsciously wanted to back away, but the next moment, the voice of the staff next to her sounded: "Xiao Qi!"

Should be a girl's name.Hearing the employee's cry, the girl's figure froze instantly. She raised her eyes, her deer-like eyes were full of fright, as if Jiang Shouyue was some scary monster.

Jiang Shouyue tentatively wanted to hold the other party's hand, but the other party's skinny little hand was pinched by him, and it was trembling faintly. This made Jiang Shouyue realize that something was wrong, but the staff beside him didn't take it seriously, and smiled apologetically: "Xiao Qi She is very timid, after all, she is only five years old, sir, would you like to see other children?"

"Why are you so skinny at the age of five?"

Jiang Shouyue squeezed the opponent's hand lightly, only to feel that the small hand in his hand looked like skin and bones.

"This kid is a picky eater, and there's nothing we can do about it." The employee replied quickly, which inevitably made Jiang Shouyue suspect that this was not the first time the other party had said such words.

But Jiang Shouyue couldn't pierce the opponent face to face, after all, he still had important things to do:

"Can I take a tour? I want to know about the living environment of these children. After all, I have never raised children."

"of course can."

The employee nodded quickly, "I'll show you around."

"no need."

Jiang Shouyue refused aloud, then squatted down and looked at the girl in front of her, and asked softly, "Is that Xiaoqi? Can you take me to visit?"

Xiao Qi was terrified. She was about to shrink back, but she was glared at by the staff next to her. Then she nodded stiffly.

"So good." Jiang Shouyue reached out and rubbed the other person's head lightly, trying to make the other person not be so scared.

"I'll come out after the visit, you wait here."

Jiang Shouyue gave orders to the employee, then took Xiaoqi's hand and walked towards the orphanage.

There were quite a few children in the orphanage. Jiang Shouyue looked around and found that most of them were looking at Jiang Shouyue with terrified eyes.Jiang Shouyue is not a fool, he understands that there must be something weird about this orphanage.

"Xiao Qi, take your brother for a walk, don't be afraid."

Jiang Shouyue lowered her head and smiled softly at the girl. The pure and non-aggressive smile made the girl's eyes flash with doubt, and her immature face was as cute as an angel.

Looking at the girl, Jiang Shouyue thought that he was not the type who likes children, but at this moment, for some reason, he was inexplicably moved.He thought back to Draper, and if he and Draper hadn't had a purposeful marriage from the start, they might have had a child already.

Draper hadn't completely marked him yet, and Jiang Shouyue didn't understand how possessive the other party was towards him, but the other party had always respected him very much. Even in his estrous period, the other party only temporarily marked him.

"Xiao Qi, how are you doing here?"

Jiang Shouyue asked the other party inductively. Even though he already had the answer in his heart, he still wanted to get some clues from the girl's mouth, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you."

"..."

Xiao Qi didn't reply, just lowered her head and clenched her empty hand slightly.

"It's okay, if you don't want to say it, don't say it."

Jiang Shouyue stretched out her hand to gently stroke the other person's hair. Although she was only five years old, her hair became yellow and dry due to lack of nutrients. This made Jiang Shouyue faintly distressed.Just about to comfort the other party, but her eyes fell on the other party's neck suddenly, and the pupils dilated instantly. Jiang Shouyue stretched out her hand and gently lifted the other party's collar, only to see that there was a large patch on the other party's fair and tender skin. bruises.

His brows were furrowed, but before Jiang Shouyue could speak, footsteps suddenly came from the side.The next moment, a fist fell straight towards Jiang Shouyue. Jiang Shouyue couldn't dodge it in time, but still swallowed the punch and groaned in pain. Make him slightly uncomfortable.

Looking up again, I saw a short-haired young man in his twenties looking at him fiercely, and then guarding the girl behind him.

"Pervert, what do you want to do to Xiao Qi?"

Jiang Shouyue endured the pain and looked at the other party for a long time, and finally could only smile helplessly: "Don't worry, I didn't want to do anything, are you also a child of this orphanage?"

"What's none of your business? A pervert."

The youth's attitude towards Jiang Shouyue was very bad. For some reason, the other party seemed to preconceive Jiang Shouyue as a bad person.

"My surname is Jiang, I'm not some pervert."

Jiang Shouyue looked up at the other party, smiled slightly, and did not feel resentment for his behavior just now, "I want to donate to this orphanage, so I came to visit."

"Donate? Visit? To put it nicely, you demons in human skin are hypocritical and disgusting."

The young man seemed to be very angry, and his words were quite unrestrained. Even Jiang Shouyue was a little dissatisfied when he heard it, but he quickly grasped the key point of the other party's words, and said softly: "You are staying in this orphanage. How long?"

"Huh? What's none of your business?" The young man didn't intend to answer.

"I'm here to help you, so you should answer carefully."

Jiang Shouyue looked up at the other party with a serious look, "Or do you know Xiao Xun?"

Hearing this name, surprise flashed across the young man's face, and the next moment he rushed forward and grabbed Jiang Shouyue's collar: "How do you know Brother Xiao? Where is he now?"

He is dead now.

Jiang Shouyue answered in his heart, but obviously, he couldn't tell the other party: "You know him, so can you tell me why he committed crimes and went to jail?"

"What do you mean he committed a crime!"

The young man's words were extremely angry. He tugged at Jiang Shouyue's collar and shouted, "If he doesn't kill that man, we will all die!"

"So I want to ask what the hell is going on?"

Jiang Shouyue was not angry, the calm and gentle eyes gradually stabilized the young man's emotions, he turned his head away, looking hesitant.

"I didn't come here to do bad things, but this matter is very important. I must be clear about what happened that year."

Jiang Shouyue stretched out her hand towards the other party, and smiled at the other party, "Tell me, in return, I will help all the children in this orphanage."

"……You can do it?"

The young man was a little skeptical.

"I can." Jiang Shouyue nodded affirmatively, "And there will be no one else but me. You should know how precious this opportunity is."

There was a long silence between the two, and finally the young man shook his head: "I don't believe you."

"But you only have this one chance." Jiang Shouyue spoke extremely calmly. He was a thoughtful person. The Jiang family wiped out his hopes little by little, but at the same time taught him how to think and control. A gleam flashed in Danfeng's eyes, and Jiang Shouyue revealed his most cunning side, "So tell me, do you agree?"
