Shi Xi subconsciously stretched out her short hands to cover her ears, "You can't touch them~"
Anna didn't force her, "Okay, don't touch it."
There was a bit of sadness in her eyebrows. Shi Xi blinked and asked, "Sister Anna, what's wrong with you?"
"...Nothing," Anna looked at her and shook her head.
Upon hearing this, Shi Xi felt that something must be wrong with her, so she grabbed Anna's hand and shook it constantly: "Tell me, okay?"
Anna was amused by her appearance, and her originally depressed mood improved a bit. She couldn't help teasing her, "Want me to tell you?"
"Yeah," the little cub nodded heavily, its golden and blue eyes full of expectation.
"Then let me touch your ears and I will tell you," Anna told her.
"Ah?" The little cub's eyes widened slightly.
Anna said: "It doesn't matter if you don't agree."
Shi Xi struggled for a while. She liked Anna very much and was a little worried about her when she saw that she was in a bad mood.
She thought about it carefully and decided that it didn't matter if she asked her to touch her ears. After all, she had nothing to lose, just touching her ears.
So, she nodded in agreement.
Anna touched the little cub's ears as she wished. The ears were fluffy and felt as good as she had imagined.
Anna touched it a few times and then withdrew her hand. Shi Xi looked at her with shining eyes.
Anna saw the meaning on her face, and she thought about taking the little cub to sit on a bench in the nearby green belt, planning to tell her slowly.
"I am an orphan," Anna said after thinking for a while. She looked at the innocent little cub and said, "You may not understand what an orphan means. It is a child who has no parents and can only live in an orphanage.
.”
The little cub said: "I know, I don't have a father or a mother. I only have a father after my father adopted me."
These words surprised Anna. She was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "So that's it. Do you like your dad? Is he, is he good to you?"
There was a bit of hesitation in the last sentence.
"Okay, dad is very good to me," Shi Xi said, thinking of Yax, her eyes curled up: "I like dad, he is very handsome."
"Really?" After hearing this, Anna lowered her head and kept wringing her hands. She said, "Actually, someone offered to adopt me yesterday."
"I'm a little scared and worried. I haven't contacted my brothers and sisters who were adopted before. I'm afraid that I will be like them," she said. She grew up in an orphanage and regarded it as her home.
, and never thought that anyone would be willing to adopt him.
She was afraid that her family would not like her if she went to her new home. She was also worried that she would live too well in her new home and forget about the orphanage and stop contacting her like her brothers and sisters before her. She didn't want that to happen.
"Sister Anna is so kind and beautiful. Your new family will definitely like you very much. If you want to contact the orphanage then, please do so," Shi Xi said to her in a firm tone. After thinking about it, she asked again: "Adopt you.
What kind of person is he?”
"He is a gentleman who has been sponsoring our orphanage for a long time. He seems... very easy to get along with," Anna said with hesitation in her tone. "The director's mother also encouraged me to go home with the old gentleman, saying that he would be very good to me.
, give me a better living environment.”
"Sounds like a good guy," Shi Xi said.
Wuwu, who was above her head, also nodded: "Indeed, people who have been sponsoring orphanages for a long time are generally very kind-hearted."
Anna lowered her head, feeling depressed: "I don't want to leave the orphanage, and..."
She paused and didn't know how to describe it for a moment, "I don't seem to like that old gentleman very much. The director's mother said that I hate him because I feel anxious about leaving the orphanage."
Anna has been working as a tour guide in the streets and alleys of Amethyst City since she was five or six years old. She has met all kinds of people and knows that there are good people and bad people in the world.
Several times she relied on her instincts to avoid danger.
"Really? Can you reject him?" Shi Xi tilted his head and asked, "If he wants to adopt you, he should ask you whether you agree? When my father adopted me, he asked me if I would be his.
daughter."
Anna was a little embarrassed: "But, he has donated a lot of money to the orphanage. If I refuse him, will he be angry and refuse to invest in the orphanage?"
"Why?" Shi Xi was puzzled and said in a sweet voice: "Before he adopted you, he had been funding the orphanage. From this, we can see that he is a kind-hearted person. Even if he did not adopt you, he would not
Funding for orphanages will be cut off."
Anna felt that what she said made sense, and her eyes brightened slightly: "You are right."
The little cub's words were like a sudden light in the fog, illuminating the way ahead for her.
Even without her, the old gentleman has always supported the orphanage. She is not pretty and is thirteen years old this year. She regards the orphanage as her home and she does not want to leave this place.
She stood up suddenly, her eyes brightened and said to Shi Xi: "Xixi, thank you, I will go back and tell the dean's mother now."
"Well, come on, sister Anna~"
Anna waved to her, and soon the figure disappeared at the end of the street.
The little cub felt happy that she had helped someone solve a big problem. She jumped down from the bench and said to Wuwu, "Let's go back."
"Okay," Wu Wu nodded.
Halfway through, the little cub stopped and sniffed the air: "It smells so good."
She smelled the alluring aroma and walked to a sausage stall.
The stall owner was a little surprised to see the cute little orc, but he still greeted him enthusiastically: "Kid, would you like a sausage?"
"No, no, thank you," the little cub stared at the fragrant sausage, swallowed and shook his head.
She has no money.
The boss looked at her and thought she was so cute, "Why are you alone? Where are your parents?"
"My daddy is at work," the little cub told her.
The boss was surprised: "Are you lost?"
With that said, she took out her optical computer and planned to call the police.
"No," the little cub shook his head and pointed to the small red-tiled villa on the mountainside: "I live there."
The boss followed her gaze and looked over. When she saw the small villa on the mountainside, the corner of her mouth twitched. She said in a serious tone: "Children, don't run around alone. Your family will be worried. Go home quickly."
Shi Xi didn't quite understand. After all, she had no problem running around during the two years she lived on the garbage planet. "Sister, don't worry, I'm very smart and won't get lost."
"And I'm not alone, Wu Wu is with me," Shi Xi said.
Just when the boss was confused about who Wu Wu was, the snow-colored Chiu on the little cub's head flapped its wings, "I will accompany Xi Xi."
boss:……

Anna ran all the way back to the orphanage, asked a child and learned that the director's mother was in the office, so she ran over and planned to tell her that she would not leave the orphanage and would stay here forever.
Arriving at the office, Anna was about to knock on the door when the dean's dissatisfied voice came from inside: "Why is the money so little this time?"
Another voice sounded: "The goods are not very good, how can we have more money?"
"That kid is smart, capable, and good-looking. He will definitely be able to sell for a lot of money. We have been cooperating for so long. You can add a little more."
