Chapter 0363: Song Xin and Lin Le
Day 15.
Song Xin held the dying Lin Le in her arms. Seeing his extremely weak face, gasping for breath in her embrace, tears once again rolled down her cheeks. This is fine. To be able to meet Lele in my final moments. I’ve walked the world, and compared to those so called righteous people, this silly guy is what a real man should be. “Do you regret? If you saved the water and food for yourself, you could have lived for much longer…”
“You support the school for orphans and the orphanage. Even though I get bullied, and don’t get good clothes, or good food, but Lele still has happy moments. Like when they give out biscuits. Like when Lele is not first from the last in games…” Lin Le said weakly.
Song Xin couldn’t hold back her tears. “They beat you and bully you, don’t you hate them?”
Lin Le weakly but earnestly shook his head. “We’re all orphans. They are suffering too, thrown away by their moms and dads. Little Song looks very mean, but he often cries into his pillow at night, calling his mom’s name. Little Tai is violent, but he’s really good to his little sister. Lele can’t hate them. If bullying Lele can help them feel better, then Lele doesn’t mind…”
Song Xin figured there was no harm in crying now. This would be their final moments anyways. “Lele, you should know, you’re the same as them…”
“Lele wasn’t abandoned. Lele just got lost when he was born. Mom and Dad will definitely come find me. Definitely…” Despite being in a weakened condition, his voice was still firm.
Song Xin was choked with emotion, unable to say anything. She held onto Lin Le tightly. “Mm, definitely…”
“I don’t need you to tell me that, but Lele won’t get the chance, because Lele is going to die. If you survive, remember to help Lele find them. Tell them, Lele misses them…” Perhaps Lin Le was approaching his end, because his happy optimism was replaced with a disappointed expression, looking very sad.
“No, don’t give up. It would have been fine if you didn’t save me. Why… Why…” Song Xin clenched her teeth and looked at Lele, whose breathing was becoming weaker and weaker. Her tears fell onto his dirty cheeks. The moonlight chose this moment to illuminate Lin Le’s sorrowful face. “Lele said already, you’ve helped my family, and you will be more useful than Lele alive. Even though Lele hates when people call me stupid, but Lele knows. Perhaps Lele really isn’t smart. Lele can’t do anything well beside playing Ludo. You’re different. You’re smart, and even beautiful. You can help lots and lots of orphans. To Lele, you are a hero. Lele has been thinking, if Lele tries hard, maybe after 50 years, when Lele is over 60, I can get into college and fulfill one of my dreams. I hear that there are a lot of new things there. Little Song always says, it is the paradise for adventurers, nerds, geeks, and elites…”
“Definitely. Definitely. You’ll definitely…” Song Xin said over and over.
