In the past, he had scoffed at the idea of women placing their lives on men. But now, he actually prayed in his heart that Yue Han must be a good person and not like Yue Chi or his father.
The siblings chatted for a while before Gong Ze returned to his room. He picked up his phone and sent Lin Yin a message.
Lin Yin, who was lying on the hospital bed, did not know what had happened to Gong Ze or why he would send a message that he wanted to learn from her.
Besides, what was there to learn from her?
Lin Yin guessed that something had happened to Gong Ze.
However, Lin Yin did not ask in detail. After all, this was Gong Ze’s own business. She had her own things to do.
Lin Yin put away her cell phone and called Sun Biao in. “Help me investigate
the Wei family. I want to know everything, no matter how big or small.
Especially anything related to Wei Ji.”
Sun Biao responded and left. Only then did Lin Yin get out of bed and go to Wei Ji’s ward.
After gesturing at the security officer at the door of the ward to keep quiet, Lin Yin gently pushed the door open and entered, sitting beside Wei Ji’s bed.
Wei Ji was fed medicine and fell into a coma. Fortunately, his life was not in danger. Otherwise, Lin Yin would probably catch Wei Wei and knock him out for a few days and nights.
She looked at Wei Ji’s eyebrows. The grown-up Wei Ji was really different from when he was young. The only similarity was that he looked cute and adorable.
Therefore, when she did not know Wei Ji’s ident.i.ty back then, she asked if Wei Ji had been lost when he was young. When she picked Wei Ji up, Wei Ji said that he had been lost.
However, Wei Ji said no. She then dismissed the idea that Wei Ji was the little boy she had picked up when she was five years old and secretly raised for five years.
When she picked up Wei Ji, Wei Ji had never said his name. At that time, she had given Wei Ji a name. He was called Bean Bao. When they first met, Wei Ji had almost been beaten to death because he had s.n.a.t.c.hed a Bean Bao.
At that time, she had watched helplessly as Bean Bao was beaten up by a group of people. She did not help or call for help. She was only five years old and could not help, nor could she defeat that group of boys who looked like they were in their teens.
Besides, she was used to such things in the slums, so she could not sympathize.
Later, she waited for a long time after the children who hit him left before approaching Wei Ji.
She thought that Bean Bao was dead, but Bean Bao was tough and did not die.
At that time, the little Bean Bao’s face was dirty, covered in dust and filth, but the eyes that looked up at Lin Yin were watery, like those of a cute puppy. Like those furry little animals that Lin Yin had always wanted to raise but never dared to.
Seeing Lin Yin looking at him in a daze, little Bean Bao thought that the girl in front of him wanted to eat the bean bun in his hand. He trembled and handed it to Lin Yin, handing her the half of the bean bun that was already covered in dust.
Lin Yin did not expect that this little boy would give it to her so easily after he was almost beaten to death for this bean bun.
Later, Lin Yin asked why, but Bean Bao didn’t say.
Seeing that Bean Bao had given the bean bun to her, Lin Yin brought Wei Ji to a dilapidated and uninhabited house.
She did not choose to bring Bean Bao to her adoptive mother’s house because her adoptive mother’s family was not rich and she was usually crazy.
It also wasn’t easy for her to find a home and mother that could protect her. She did not want to share it with others. She was afraid that such a cute boy would s.n.a.t.c.h away the peaceful life she had painstakingly obtained.
She did not tell Bean Bao her real name. At that time, she was still young and stubbornly believed that once her adoptive mother saw Bean Bap, she would definitely adopt Bean Bao. Therefore, she did not want Bean Bao to find her home through her name, so she kept asking Bean Bao to call her sister.
She had hidden Bean Bao for three years. She would share what she had learned in school, what her adoptive mother had given her and what she ate. She would also earn some money to buy food for Bean Bun, but she would not share her adoptive mother’s love for her.
It was not until her adoptive mother died that she brought Bean Bao, who always called her sister sweetly behind her, back to that equally dilapidated home. The two eight-year-old children relied on each other until two years later, Bean Bao was targeted by human traffickers.
She didn’t want anything to happen to Bean Bao. He was lost and different from her, so there was hope for Bean Bao to return to his parents.
Therefore, she risked her life and almost died under the knife of the human trafficker to save Wei Ji back from the human trafficker..
