”Child? Have you ever seen a child who brings bad luck upon birth? ” As if he had thought of something despicable, he tightly held the child's hand. Wrinkles immediately appeared on the child's clothes. Perhaps because he felt pain, the child cried even more fiercely.
Looking at the crying child, the man became agitated and shoved the child into the woman's arms.
Perhaps it was because the man's actions were too rough, but once the child entered the mother's arms, it immediately began to cry as if asking for help.
”Oh oh oh oh oh, don't cry, don't cry.” As the woman coaxed the child, she angrily replied, ”Even if it's just two fingers and two toes, it doesn't matter. What you're talking about is just a natural coincidence.”
”Hehe, a coincidence? There are so many people in the city, and it just so happened that this fiend was born at that time? ” The man pointed angrily at the baby.
”How, how can you say that about him?” When the woman heard the words' fiend ', her face turned even uglier, and tears began to roll down her cheeks.
”If he isn't a monster, then what is he? A few days later, a Taoist appeared out of thin air at our house and said that he was an unknown infant, that he had six fingers on each hand and that his fate was very hard … All of the bad things happened to this child. He even said that his strong fate would kill his close relatives in the family, and that his family's property would go bankrupt because of this …
What was the result? I think you know that too! Just as the Taoist said, our parents died at the same time that day, and when we learned of the death of the board of directors of the company, those old foxes of the company hurriedly incited us to go down on one side. Now, if I don't do something, this company might really... ”
”Alright, stop it!”
Tears streamed down the woman's face as she listened to these words. She knew that her man had hardened his heart today. She took a look at the child in her arms and painfully placed him at the entrance of the orphanage!
The child seemed to know that he was about to be abandoned. The moment the woman let go of him, he suddenly began to cry. His voice reached its peak as he cried until his heart tore apart.
Upon seeing this, Bai Mu placed one hand on his heart while the other clenched into a fist by his side.
As for the woman, she was crying and she didn't want to leave. The man hardened his heart and said, ”Hurry and go, this cry will attract people. Have you forgotten? This is an ominous child! If you want children, then let's go back and reproduce! ” As he spoke, he pulled the woman towards the corner.
After hearing the words spoken earlier, as well as the scene before him, Bai Mu felt a chill run down his spine. Looking at the two leaving figures, he slumped against the wall.
”What a great 'go home and revive'!” As he repeated this in a low voice, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife …
Just as the two of them turned the corner, the orphanage staff opened up as well. The person who came out was a middle-aged man in a white coat.
”Dean Bai — —” Bai Mu exclaimed in an uncertain tone. Looking at Dean Bai, who seemed to have aged several dozens of years, Bai Mu couldn't help muttering to himself, ”Could it be that that child is really …. No ….” ”Impossible!”
If he wasn't sure of the results just a moment ago, upon seeing Principal Bai, who was younger by more than ten years, Bai Mu would have confirmed it.
Those two people just now were his parents who had abandoned his heartless heart? As Bai Mu retreated, he found it hard to accept the situation. Looking at the couple in the corner, he felt as though he had been stabbed in the heart.
The white clothed middle-aged man shook his head and sighed, ”Ah, yet another pitiful child.”
He carefully held the baby that was still crying as if it was a precious treasure, and coaxed it in a low voice, ”Little cutie, I heard your crying from afar. Don't worry, your parents don't want you, the dean uncle wants you! The kids here will play with you, and you won't feel lonely. ”
Hearing this familiar voice, Bai Mu's heart warmed. ”In this lifetime, I'm afraid only the Headmaster has truly treated me with sincerity!”
As for the crying child, it was as if he had understood what was going on. His tears turned into smiles!
The moment the front door of the orphanage was closed, the two figures hiding in the corner also quietly left.
Bai Mu followed the child inside. However, Bai Mu didn't even glance at the two of them. He disdained, or even hated, the parents who abandoned their children!
As he followed the dean into the courtyard, before Bai Mu could come to a stop, the scenery before him blurred once more, and he froze within a courtyard.
However, Bai Mu was currently immersed in these painful memories. He no longer had the ability to sense these extraordinary changes.
In the backyard of the orphanage, a group of kids seemed to be having a lot of fun.
”Lalalalala …” ”Bad kid, little fiend, little scoundrel …”
A chubby child of about five or six years old ran while shouting excitedly, looking like he wanted to stir up trouble.
