The rain had been particularly hard in recent days, so fewer pedestrians were on the streets. The school was temporarily closed for the sake of the childrenâs safety.
When Jiang Yao arrived at the welfare institute, the director held a book and taught the children how to draw. She immediately saw Xiao Ding holding a book sitting at the back of the crowd.
âAuntie Jiang is here,â the director smiled at Jiang Yao when he saw her and said to Yanzi and the others.
Yanzi turned her head and saw Jiang Yao standing at the door. She immediately ran toward her and greeted her. When she saw the traces of rain on Jiang Yaoâs body, she immediately went to fetch a dry towel and handed it to Jiang Yao, saying, âAuntie, quickly wipe the rainwater off your clothes. Uncle Lu said that you have a baby in your stomach. You must be very careful.â
Jiang Yao could not help but laugh. Her husband really wanted to publicize it to the whole world. He wanted the entire world to take care of her.
Jiang Yao took the towel and thanked Yanzi. She patted Yanziâs head and said, âCome out with me for a while. I have something to ask you. â
Xiao Ding stood up from the chair and carefully laid the book on the chair. He told Yanzi to observe the book before leaving the small classroom with Jiang
Yao.
Jiang Yao was waiting for Xiao Ding in the directorâs office, but the director did not go with them. Jiang Yao waited for Xiao Ding to come in before asking him to close the door. Then she said, âI have some good news. Itâs about your family. â
âThe police found my family?â
Xiao Ding immediately became nervous.
âItâs not the police. The hospital found a girl named Ding Xiaomei who was looking for her brother. The girlâs DNA is very similar to yours. According to medical science, you two are very closely related.â
Jiang Yao wanted to observe Xiao Dingâs expression when she finished speaking, but she did not need to. As soon as she said Ding Xiaomeiâs name, Xiao Dingâs eyes immediately reddened.
âItâs my sister! Itâs my sister! My sisterâs name is Ding Xiaomei! Did my sister draw her blood and store it in the hospital? My sister must have been looking for me!â Xiao Ding, who did not even shed a tear when he was slapped, immediately sobbed when he heard his sisterâs name.
That was not just because he was excited to find his family members. What made him even happier was that his sister had been looking for him. His sister must have gone to the hospital to do the DNA test to find him.
âSo you are really Ding Xiaomeiâs younger brother?â
Jiang Yao shook the two folders in her hands helplessly. âHere is a copy of Ding Xiaomeiâs information initially registered to look for her younger brother.
âYou filled in the other copy at the police station. The way you wrote it did not hint at you wanting to look for your family.â
âAuntie Jiang, I want to look for my sister, but Iâm afraid that I wonât be able to find her. Instead, I might be found by my former foster parents!â Xiao Ding immediately explained, âThey spent money to buy me, but I ran away. Iâm afraid theyâre looking for me too, so I donât dare to write in detail.â
In other words, although he could trust Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi, he could not trust the police, and he could not trust the people who had once injured him.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI was terrified that those people would take me back before I could find my sister. My sister was living with me at that time. I was also afraid that I would not be able to find my sister,â Xiao Ding explained anxiously while crying..
