On the day of Qingming, Cheng Su hardly slept through the night, and the next day, with panda eyes, she got up to see the sky outside the window just beginning to brighten.
Unable to sleep any longer, Cheng Su went to wash her face. Seeing the dark circles under her eyes, she put on so powder to make herself look more spirited.
She picked up her bag and walked out of the hotel on her own, having told Wang Bo and the others in advance that she was going sowhere today, and they didn’t need to follow her, they could go about freely.
Wang Bo and the others originally wanted to go with her, after all, the city was big and if she was alone, what if sothing happened?
But Cheng Su insisted on going alone, so they had to give up.
On the bus, Cheng Su took out the address of the orphanage that Old Master Cheng ntioned and glanced at it. It was indeed the sa as in her previous life.
She tightly clutched the crumpled paper, lip set in a line, and looked out the window, taking a few deep breaths.
An hour later, Cheng Su got off the bus, standing by the roadside and looking around.
The surroundings were still quite sparse now, with so residential buildings or people’s orchards and fields, different from her mories of her previous life.
In her past life, this place was completely developed, with tall buildings standing, even the orphanage was eyed by developers for acquisition and developnt. When the director told her that they might not be able to keep the orphanage, Cheng Su cried.
She didn’t know in the end whether that orphanage was taken over because in the year she ’died,’ negotiations were still ongoing!
Cheng Su reminisced for a while, then followed the road in her mory towards the orphanage.
The further she walked, the closer she got. A path paved with colorful stones suddenly appeared before Cheng Su.
Just like in her dreams.
Cheng Su squatted down, touched those stones with her hands, and her vision suddenly blurred.
She raised her head, looking ahead, not too far away a building resembling a church with a pointed roof appeared in her view, on top of which was a sculpture of Mary, mother of Jesus Christ, holding Jesus.
This orphanage was originally a Christian church, later turned into an orphanage due to the many orphans left behind after the war. The director here was also a Christian.
Cheng Su felt her heart ache in waves, stood up, and stepped onto the colorful stone road.
Such a short road, it led to herself, it was the road to find herself, would her wish co true?
Her feet felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, only with great difficulty did she make it to the entrance of the orphanage.
The pale yellow buildings appeared solemn and new, clearly just renovated. In front of the gate, there was a large iron gate, which was open at the mont.
The sign with ’Guangcheng Orphanage’ hung on the wall, Cheng Su covered her mouth, and tears started falling.
It was the place she once lived and grew up in.
Entering the iron gate, the surroundings were vast and open, with a large patch of blooming Gesang flowers swaying in the breeze.
Cheng Su knew that behind the main building was a large fenced yard, which was the resting and playing place for the children, serving as a dormitory.
Walking to the front of the main building, Cheng Su’s gaze fell on the two large pillars, then the steps.
According to what the director told her, around ten o’clock in the morning in her previous life, she was found in a basket placed on the steps. She was just over a year old, and strangely, apart from the birth date, there was no other identification information, including a na.
So her na was given by that mysterious foster parent, but who it was, she never knew.
Cheng Su looked at the ti, it was just half past eight, so she sat on the steps. She wanted to wait, to see who abandoned her.
