After being read she became a full-time daughter: Chapter 54

  Tan Li’s words were like a bomb, exploding in Wen Hongjuan’s heart.

  ”Xiao Li, you…” She was touched, relieved, and guilty, with mixed feelings.

  She pressed her eyelids and said, “Xiao Li, you never came back after you became an adult. I thought you didn’t want to have any contact with the people here.”

  ”I didn’t expect it…” Wen Hongjuan was so moved that her heart was filled with emotion, “You have made it big now, and you actually thought of everyone first.”

  ”Xiao Li, Mother Wen knows that our Xiao Li is the best child.”

  Tan Li: …

  She gave a polite fake smile.

  How to explain this? She is really just very ordinary, very pure, very simple, and just wants to spend some money?

  Tan Li was so moved by Wen Hongjuan that she finally gave up explaining.

  There’s no point in wasting time explaining. It wasn’t her misunderstanding anyway, so what does it have to do with her?

  Ying Heng observed Tan Li for a long time, his dark eyes unable to tell what he was thinking, and then he winked at Tong Jing.

  Tong Jing was stunned. For some reason, she felt that she understood what Ying Heng meant.

  The two seemed to be having some encrypted conversation, and Tong Jing nodded at Ying Heng.

  Tan Li: …

  What little secrets do her assistant and the little pervert Ying Heng have that she, as the boss, must not know?

  **

  After checking the donation list, Wen Hongjuan warmly invited Tan Li to personally deliver the gifts she had sent to the children. She also excitedly took out the photo album and prepared to take a few photos.

  How could Tan Li, such a lazy person, be willing to do that?

  She was about to refuse——

  ”I’ll go.” Ying Heng looked mature and steady at this moment, like a good young man in society.

  ”Then I’ll go and help!” Tong Jing also volunteered and raised her hand, looking like she was willing to go through fire and water for her boss.

  In response, Tan Li smiled and said, “Isn’t this an invitation for me? How can I not go?”

  The main theme is rebellion.

  Ying Heng and Tong Jing wanted to whisper something behind her back?

  Hey~

  She is going to be an obstacle.

  Ying Heng said helplessly, “Then let’s go together.”

  Tong Jing smiled like a sunflower, “Then I’ll be in charge of taking photos! Don’t worry, boss! I’ve done my research and will definitely take beautiful photos for you!”

  Tan Li: …

  Why did she have a subtle feeling that she had stepped into a trap?

  Tan Li stared at Ying Heng and Tong Jing deeply, but Ying Heng had the same poker face as always, and Tong Jing had the same sunflower look as always, and there was really no sign of anything unusual.

  She pursed her lips, wondering whether she should perform a scene of a woman’s heart being as deep as the sea, and that rich women are always fickle.

  But thinking about it, Tan Li still sighed——

  ”Okay, okay,” she felt that she was so kind that she could be considered doting on the two juniors, “As long as you are happy.”

  Tong Jing’s reaction time was too slow and she didn’t understand the deeper meaning of Tan Li’s words.

  Ying Heng glanced at her helplessly, but at least this time, he didn’t sound sarcastic.

  Asking is a habit.

  Asking means compromising.

  At least, Tan Li no longer calls him kid, young man, or boy, etc. This is already very good. People should learn to be content.

  Then, several people went to the activity room again.

  Wen Hongjuan asked the children to line up in front of her and receive their gifts one by one in order.

  Tan Li was like Santa Claus, taking out presents from the unloading cartons for the children, but as he was taking them out——

  ”People should learn to fight for what they want,” Tan Li put the full cardboard box in front of them with her bare hands and waved her hand, “Take it yourself.”

  The kids had never seen anything like this before and were at a loss for a moment.

  A pair of round, bright eyes looked at Tan Li blankly.

  Tan Li pointed inside the carton and asked, “Do you want it?”

  The carrot heads nodded.

  Tan Li pushed the carton forward and said, “Then come and get it yourself.”

  After that, she crossed her arms and leaned back in her chair.

  The gift has already fallen from the sky, but you don’t know how to catch it. Instead, you expect others to put the gift in your hands. That’s a bit inappropriate.

  and……

  It’s so tiring to give gifts one by one!

  Such intensity of labor is unacceptable to a lazy person like her!

  She spent all the money!

  Don’t expect her to do it again!

  Tan Li leaned steadily in her chair, completely ignoring the children’s expectant gazes.

  Wen Hongjuan was distributing gifts to her own team. Seeing this, she wanted to speak up to ease the atmosphere.

  Most of the children in the welfare home are sensitive, and she is worried that Tan Li’s style will make them retreat into their own turtle shells.

  But before she could say anything, she saw the little girl at the front of Tan Li’s team getting a little uneasy and cautiously extending her hand –

  ”Big sister, can I have this?” She was small in stature and had a small voice. She held a pink rabbit doll and asked Tan Li.

  Tan Li: “Sure, if you can carry it, take as much as you want.”

  The little girl was embarrassed to take more, but Tan Li encouraged her with her eyes. At that moment, it was as if someone gently pushed her from behind, and the little girl reached out her hand again.

  She blushed, and a voice in her heart told her that a good girl should just take one, but her hand seemed to have its own consciousness and grabbed a small lollipop.

  ”I, I’ll just take another one of these, can I?” The little girl was so nervous that she stuttered.

  Tan Li nodded and said, “I told you, as long as you can carry it, you can take as much as you want.”

  Tan Li’s tone was obviously very cold, but it inexplicably filled the little girl with courage.

  A desire arose in her heart, and she grabbed a handful with her small hands.

  Her hands were too small, so she could only grab 3 lollipops, but the little girl’s expression was as if she had received stars from the sky.

  She held the rabbit doll and the lollipops and shouted to Tan Li, “Thank you, sister!”

  As she said that, she gave her seat to the next person.

  There was a little boy standing behind her. Seeing that the little girl in front of him took so many things, Tan Li said nothing. After hesitating for a moment, he also took the same amount of things as the little girl.

  He quietly raised his head and looked at Tan Li’s face.

  Tan Li just sat with his legs crossed in a daze.

  He thought about it and secretly took another candy.

  Tan Li didn’t react at all.

  The little boy’s arms were full, and his heart was full, “Thank you, sister!”

  The third, the fourth…

  The children in Tanli’s team became braver and took as many gifts as possible.

  The kids from other teams couldn’t help but feel envious when they saw this.

  The quiet and happy team began to become restless.

  Wen Hongjuan frowned slightly. She was very grateful to Tan Li for bringing so many gifts to the children, but she did not agree with Tan Li’s current way of giving gifts.

  Tan Li cannot take care of these children for the rest of their lives. If she lets the desires in their hearts grow today, these children will face greater loss when she leaves.

  Moreover, what is worrying is not the scarcity but the inequality.

  What do the kids from other teams think when the kids from Tan Li’s team got so many?

  Although they are reluctant to admit it, the children in welfare homes are different from those in ordinary families. Rather than indulgent happiness, they should know how to control their happiness, so that they will not be easily hit by the unfairness of the world in the future.

  ”Xiao Li…”

  ”You too, come get it yourself.”

  Wen Hongjuan had just spoken when she was drowned out by Ying Heng’s voice.

  Ying Heng asked his assistant Liang Yian to move the cartons on his side to the front as well. “Just like that team, take as many as you want.”

  !!!

  In an instant, only the children in Wen Hongjuan’s team were left without this treatment.

  The children in Wen Hongjuan’s team looked at each other, with complicated expressions of grievance and envy on their little faces.

  Wen Hongjuan’s brows deepened.

  “No…” Before she could finish her words, the kids in her team had already run halfway.

  The remaining few hesitated, carefully observing Wen Hongjuan’s expression, while looking enviously at the other end of the bustle.

  As the two teams of Tan Li and Ying Heng were having fun, some pushing and shoving started to occur.

  “This is mine!”

  ”It’s not yours! Brother and sister said you can take as much as you want!”

  ”You’ve already taken so much!”

  ”Move aside, let me take it first!”

  Wen Hongjuan’s heart skipped a beat. She knew that these were just children after all. How could they restrain themselves like adults? And now something bad happened!

  She was about to go over to stop the fight when the two idiots who were about to start a fight in front of the cardboard box suddenly left the ground.

  ???

  The two children watched the ground getting farther and farther away from them, and they instinctively panicked. Their little feet started to flutter, but their hands were still tightly holding the small toys they had just taken out of the cardboard box.

  The other children, seeing Tan Li easily pick up the two children, one in each hand like kittens, suddenly became quiet.

  The two people from Ying Heng’s team who were still fighting also froze in place.

  Tan Li didn’t care that she had become the focus of the crowd, and just said calmly, “Don’t fight.”

  ”Quarrel.”

  As she said this, she put the child down.

  ”Still arguing?” she asked condescendingly.

  The two children were stunned for a moment and shook their heads rapidly.

  Tan Li nodded with relief and fell back into her chair in a daze.

  Although her movements were still lazy, in the eyes of the children, she seemed to exude the aura of a great devil…

  No, it should be said that it is the glory of a hermit.

  The children stopped fighting for the gifts and a few of them gathered around Tan Li bravely, “Sister, you are so awesome.”

  ”Yeah.” Tan Li responded without any modesty.

  ”Sister, can we become as powerful as you?”

  Tan Li thought about it and said, “Then I’ll build a martial arts classroom for you guys to practice more.”

  Although it is a bit difficult to become as awesome as her, she can’t discourage the children’s enthusiasm.

  Wen Hongjuan wanted to interrupt, but she felt it was difficult to do so considering that Tan Li had donated so many things, and her face was wrinkled.

  In desperation, Wen Hongjuan had to say to the remaining children in her team, “You guys can take it yourself.”

  ”Wow–“

  For a moment, every child’s face was filled with joy.

  After the gifts were distributed and the children had all left, Wen Hongjuan could not help but say to Tan Li, “Xiao Li, you have also been here before…”

  She paused, feeling like she was exposing someone’s scars, but she still felt that she had to make it clear to Tan Li, “You know, these donations may just be a whim of kind-hearted people.”

  ”Children can’t indulge in it.”

  ”They will have to face social injustice sooner or later. If you do this…”

  Under Tan Li’s calm gaze, her voice became softer and softer.

  Tan Li asked, “Just because they will face a harder life than ordinary people in the future, do they not have the right to be a carefree child now?”

  Wen Hongjuan was slightly stunned.

  But after a while, she still insisted, “If being this carefree child will cause them to suffer more painful losses later, then it really won’t.”

  ”Xiao Li, not everyone is as lucky as you. When you grow up, you meet a good person and live a good life. For most children, it is extremely difficult just to live like ordinary people.”

  ”I hope they can face gains and losses calmly in the future, rather than being blinded by temporary happiness.”

  ”They should be able to get out of here on their own, not on handouts that could disappear at any time.”

  When Wen Hongjuan said these words, her hands were crossed nervously in front of her, but her gaze did not retreat in the slightest.

  for a long time–

  Tan Li smiled slightly, “Then let’s do as you wish.”

  ”You are the dean’s mother. To them, I am just a kind person who was in a good mood at the time.”

  ”I can’t be responsible for the future of these children, so I won’t come here in the future.”

  She pointed a finger behind her, “Little girl.”

  Tong Jing quickly stepped forward and took over Tan Li’s words, “Dean Wen, it’s like this. The boss came here mainly to conduct an on-site assessment of the welfare home’s operations and management staff.”

  ”After confirmation, the boss plans to set up a special orphan welfare foundation and provide regular financial assistance to facilities like the Blue Sky Welfare Home in the future.”

  ”This includes the cost of each child’s education, living expenses and other miscellaneous expenses until they reach adulthood.”

  ”What the boss meant was that although she couldn’t give these children a home, she hoped to give them the confidence to build a new family.”

  ”At the same time, we will also set up a supervisory body to visit the orphanage regularly to ensure that every penny of money is actually used on the children.”

  Tong Jing held her head high and chest puffed out, unable to conceal her respect for Tan Li in her words.

  I still remember yesterday. Because Tan Li looked indifferent the whole time, Tong Jing initially thought that she might not like the orphanage where she had stayed.

  But later, when Tan Li asked her to learn about the procedure for setting up a welfare foundation, Tong Jing realized that her boss was still the same boss who spoke hard but was soft-hearted.

  No matter how cold and heartless he appears on the surface, he is still extremely gentle inside.

  ”Of course, there will be a dedicated person to contact you later.” Tong Jing said proudly, “As for our boss, she is quite busy, so she won’t come here in person in the future.”
