Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
Director Huang brought Zhu Wei Wei and the rest to have a look at the Children’s Welfare Institute. Through Lin Fan’s hard work, the Welfare Institute had completely changed. On certain open grounds, construction workers were doing construction work. They were building places for the children to study.
The chief of the construction team knew that they were building a place of study for children who had no homes of their own. Hence, he was naturally very serious and responsible. In every regard, he did close inspections to prevent his workers from doing shoddy work. If he found anything that was not up to standard, he would get them to start all over again.
To him, building a school building for these children was a great, charitable deed. If he didn’t put his heart into it, it would be a sin.
Zhu Wei Wei asked curiously, “Director Huang, what are they building here?
Director Huang replied, “They’re building a classroom building for the children. The children here have some special needs. If they were to go to school elsewhere, the schools would be too full and they wouldn’t be able to enter. Furthermore, these children are not very young anymore and they should be receiving an education.”
Yang Mu muttered, “This Children’s Welfare Institute has a lot of money. Just building this would require at least several millions.”
When Zhu Wei Wei heard this, she shot a glare at Yang Mu.
Director Huang smiled, “Actually, we don’t have much money but these children have met a good person and that person has helped to raise funds for them.
When Zhu Wei Wei heard this, she nodded as she felt grateful to that person. To donate a sum of money to the Welfare Institute, that person must have really been a good person.
Far away, Lil’ Fatty was pushing a wheelchair. The child in the wheelchair was missing a leg but even so, the two children were chatting cheerfully. They seemed very happy.
“Good morning, Director.” The two of them displayed child-like smiles when they saw Director Huang. Although they were young, they were much more mature than average children.
They were very content with their current lives. Compared to last time, when they would get beaten and scolded for being disobedient, this was hundreds and thousands of times better.
“Where are you two going?” asked Director Huang with a smile.
Lil’ Fatty replied, “Sister Xiang Xiang says that she wants to see the big car, so I’m pushing her to that side to take a look.”
Director Huang patted Lil’ Fatty on the head. “Mmm, very good, Lil’ Fatty. You know that you should help your friends. Come, greet these older brothers and sisters. These brothers and sisters are volunteers and they’re here to visit you all.”
“Good morning, Big Brothers and Sisters.”
Zhu Wei Wei squatted down. “Nice to meet you, Lil’ Fatty. Are you happy here?”
Lil’ Fatty scratched his nose and said, “I’m happy. I’m exceptionally happy.”
At that moment, Zhu Wei Wei’s gaze shifted to the side, to Xiang Xiang, who was sitting in the wheelchair. A hint of sorrow appeared in between her brows. “Nice to meet you, Little Sister.”
Xiang Xiang was a little shy. “Nice to meet you, Big Sister.”
After Lil’ Fatty and Xiang Xiang left, Zhu Wei Wei was a little emotional. “Director Huang, this Xiang Xiang is very cute but...
The short-haired little sister nodded, “At such a young age, her leg is...sigh...”
Zhu Wei Wei had done her research on the situation at Nanshan Children’s Welfare Institute before coming. The children had basically all been rescued from the clutches of the human traffickers. How good could the children’s days have been when they were with the human traffickers?
Director Huang said, “This is already considered good. We have a total of 365 children here but only 160 of them have complete and perfectly healthy bodies. The rest all have disabilities in their bodies.”
“So many?” Zhu Wei Wei couldn’t believe it. The government was actually very caring towards these disabled children. When they grew up, the government would arrange welfare jobs for them. However, their lives were still much different from those of average people.
Director Huang shook her head, “But after Master Lin’s medical treatment, only 35 children remain uncured in the end. The others have all been cured.”
Zhu Wei Wei was extremely surprised. “Director Huang. This Master Lin treated those disabled children back to health? But why are there 35 children left who can’t be treated?”
Director Huang replied, “You saw it yourself. These children are all missing limbs and they really can’t be treated. For our Welfare Institute to reach its current state is all thanks to Master Lin’s contributions.”
“That’s amazing,” said Yang Mu in shock. What Director Huang was talking about sounded like a fantasy. It was hard to believe that.
Zhu Wei Wei wasn’t Shanghainese. She wasn’t familiar with this Master Lin. She asked curiously, “Director Huang, just who is this Master Lin? He seems so amazing.”
Initially, she had thought that this Master Lin was perhaps a volunteer like her but now, that didn’t seem like the case.
Raising funds, for someone with ability, was not a difficult thing. But treating these disabled children back to health was a little unthinkable.
Director Huang smiled, “I’ve already informed Master Lin that there are volunteers coming. He’ll be coming over later. Then, you’ll be able to talk to him.”
At that moment, series of joyful voices came from outside.
“Uncle Lin...”
“Uncle Lin, hurry and come watch me draw.”
The cheery laughter of the children rang from outside.
Director Huang smiled, “He’s here. Over here, he’s very well-liked by the children.”
...
Outside.
A group of children had surrounded Lin Fan. Meanwhile, Lin Fan was all smiles. He then asked Han Lu, “Where are the volunteers?”
Han Lu had already stayed here for very long and he really liked this place. Especially when he woke up and the first thing he saw were these children, his heart would burst with excitement.
He had found his life’s goal.
“Director Huang is bringing them around inside,” said Han Lu.
“Oh.” Lin Fan nodded, then looked at the children and asked, “How have your Chinese arts been? Have you all been lazy?”
The children replied in unison, “We haven’t been lazy, Uncle Lin.”
Lin Fan smiled. These children had indeed not been lazy. His Encyclopedic Points increased every day and a good number of them came from these children.
“Master Lin, you’re here.” At that moment, Director Huang came over with everyone else.
Among the crowd, Zhu Wei Wei was curiously looking at Lin Fan. He was very young but he looked very reliable. When he faced the children, in particular, he had a very warm and gentle smile.
But what made Zhu Wei Wei most curious was what kind of person this Master Lin was exactly? Why did he have such capability?
The short-haired lady held onto Zhu Wei Wei’s arm. Her mouth opened slightly as she asked in a surprised tone, “Wei Wei, is that Master Lin? But he looks so young, is he really that amazing?”
Zhu Wei Wei had no idea. This was the first time she had seen Master Lin. She believed everything Director Huang had said but she had never seen it personally, so naturally, she was a little doubtful.
Yang Mu looked at Lin Fan. Such a young man but so well-received. When a man meets another man, it is only natural for them to compare each other. In his heart, he muttered to himself, “This guy doesn’t seem like much.”
Lin Fan smiled, “Director Huang, are these the volunteers?”
Director Huang said, “Let me do an introduction. This is volunteer Zhu Wei Wei.”
The short-haired lady went forward immediately, extended her hand and said with a smile, “Nice to meet you. I’m Li Qian, this is my first time volunteering.”
Lin Fan smiled and shook her hand. Then, he said, “Welcome, everyone. I’m the person-in-charge here, Lin Fan. Nanshan Children’s Welfare Institute welcomes all of you.”
Lin Fan was very welcoming towards volunteers. Of course, that was on the condition that they were real volunteers and not people who just came here to pretend like they really cared.
However, when he first saw Zhu Wei Wei, he could already tell that this lady was a very kind person.
As for the others, they were perhaps there just to experience it once. However, that didn’t matter. As long as there was one sincere person, it was enough.
