“Ye Xing, who is this handsome young man? Isn’t he a little too cocky?”

Thirteen was still awake after the meal, but Ye Xing knew that this state would only last for an hour or so.

At the beginning, some people suspected that Thirteen was faking it because she was lazy and wanted to avoid work.

In addition, she did not like to shower, so many children were not willing to play with her.

However, Ye Xing was an exception. She firmly believed that Thirteen was suffering from a strange illness. Otherwise, how could a girl not love being clean and pretty?

Unfortunately, the welfare institute did not have good medical facilities. The doctors had seen and examined her, but they did not find anything special.

This made many people even more certain that she was faking it.

“He’s actually quite nice, he did not even get angry even though I said those things about him.. If you’re done eating, hurry up and wash the dishes. Look, the others have left, the kitchen helpers have also finished work.”

Thirteen sighed. “I know, I know. You have to say it every day. I’m not an idiot, I have a good memory. I’ll go wash them now. I don’t want to cause trouble for others, I know.”

Seeing her like this, Ye Xing nodded in relief.

However, in the end, she still helped her wash the dishes and cutlery.

“There’s someone coming to do a charity event tomorrow. Do you want to join? I can talk to Mother Chen and ask them to help you find a better doctor to treat your illness. The time you spend in a daze is getting longer and longer.”

Ye Xing looked at Thirteen worriedly. Since she was the only one who was close to Thirteen, she could clearly feel it.

At first, Thirteen would only be in a daze occasionally, but now, she could be in a daze for an entire morning.

She would only wake up after eating, as if she had replenished her energy.

However, the period of time she woke up would not be too long, and it would last until dinner time. It was as if three meals a day was to awaken her energy.

Thirteen pouted disapprovingly. “They won’t help me. There aren’t any good people in this world. Even if I help others, there’s a price to pay. Ye Xing, you’re just too naive. Let me tell you, I can fool eight little girls like you in a day. Be more careful in the future, don’t treat everyone as a good person.”

Thirteen was a few years older than Ye Xing. She had long reached the age of going to school, but because of her current condition, she had not been able to attend school for a long time.

Ye Xing smiled at her words. She somewhat agreed with her, but not completely.

There were always some good people who did not care about the loss of helping others.

Seeing that Ye Xing only smiled and did not say anything, Thirteen knew that she did not take what she had just said to heart.

She sighed and asked, “Do you still want to be adopted?”

Everyone in the orphanage knew this.

Ye Xing had always yearned to be adopted.

“Yes, even in my dreams., but many of my older brothers and sisters have not been adopted, so it’s not my turn either.”

Thirteen was silent for a moment. With a rare serious expression, she placed her hand on her shoulders so that she could face her.

“Ye Xing, no matter what, you have to live a happy life.”

She spoke very solemnly, as if she was holding some kind of ceremony, forcing people to become serious.

Ye Xing smiled and nodded vigorously. “I will, and so will you.”

This was a blessing from a good friend, so it should feel good. After all, it was a blessing to be cared for by others.

However, Thirteen shook her head. There was sadness, disappointment, and something else on her face.

It was very complicated, and Ye Xing could not understand it.

“Forget about me. I’m fine the way I am now. Aren’t you going to take a shower? Let’s go, or you’ll nag me to death again. You should be going to school next year, right? When you go to school, there won’t even be anyone to talk to anymore.”

Ye Xing was a little sad when she heard this. It seemed like Thirteen was just venting, she soon forgot about it.

However, Ye Xing secretly swore that she would help Thirteen find another sincere friend before she left.

A child’s friendship was always very pure.

However, Thirteen was much more mature than most people. This was something that even Ye Xing did not realize.

This time, Thirteen was very cooperative. She only came out of the bathroom after she had washed herself thoroughly.

Ye Xing looked at the time and sighed in relief. Thankfully, it had not been an hour.

Otherwise, Thirteen would have fallen into a daze.

“Alright, I’ve finished washing up. I’ll go to bed right away. Remember to call me when it’s time to eat.”
