When I Saw The Returns, I Invested In My Future Wife First

81 Ai Tingya’s Background

Ai Tingya hurriedly stood up to stop him. “Luo Feng, you’re not allowed to do that!”

“Ai Tingya is not allowed to speak.” Luo Feng pretended to be cold and said in a low voice.

In the past, Luo Feng had always been gentle with her. Ai Tingya was not used to his sudden change in attitude and did not know how to respond. She was stunned on the spot and felt a little aggrieved.

Luo Feng took the opportunity to say to Dean Du, “Dean, you know that studying is the best way out for the children. With the reward and Tingya as an example, I believe they will definitely work harder than before. I’ve decided to spend a portion of the money on the children every year in the future. This way, Tingya and I will be more motivated.”

!!

Dean Du really could not refuse hearing Luo Feng’s explanation.

Indeed, she hoped that every child would be like Ai Tingya and walk on a good path after living a rough life for more than ten years.

“Alright.” Dean Du compromised. She walked to the front of the summer vacation and took down a document. “The donor has to leave his name. You have to write it too.”

Luo Feng picked up his pen and looked at Ai Tingya, who was also sulking. He wrote with a flourish, “Ai Tingya’s family.”

Dean Du smiled knowingly and specially showed the registration form to Ai Tingya.

In the past, Ai Tingya would stomp her feet in embarrassment but she was in a fit of anger now. She pursed her lips and turned to the side. After Luo Feng transferred the money to the orphanage’s account, he realized that there was no cash return.

Donating was not an investment and went against Ai Tingya’s wishes. The billionaire became a nine-figure millionaire again.

“Alright, Xiaoya, stop throwing a tantrum.” Dean Du helped smooth things over.

Ai Tingya listened to Dean Du the most. Her lips curled up, but she still nodded obediently.

Dean Du’s gaze softened as he stared fixedly at Ai Tingya’s face. “I think it’s time for you to know.”

“What about?” Ai Tingya sensed that the atmosphere was not right.

Dean Du said, “It’s about your parents.”

A buzzing sound rang in Tingya’s mind. Her expression was blank and she did not know how to face it.

Luo Feng said, “I’ll wait for you outside.”

He wanted to give Ai Tingya some privacy. Luo Feng would not deliberately probe unless she took the initiative to tell him.

“Don’t go.” Tingya pulled him back, as fragile as a fragile vase. “Stay here with me.”

She followed Dean Du to the window uneasily and saw her take out an old wooden box from the bedside table. When she opened it, she saw a golden lock and a yellowed newspaper lying in the box.

Dean Du took out the golden lock and placed it in Ai Tingya’s hand. “This is what you were wearing around your neck when we found you.”

The golden lock was heavy, and the word “safety” was engraved in the middle.

The golden luster had not tarnished after so many years. When Dean Du saw this golden lock, it was like seeing the swaddled child from back then.

“18 years ago, there was a car accident on the Crown City Bridge. A small car hit the pier and caused a fire. Fortunately, passersby saw it and saved you and your parents from the car.” She started to explain.

Ai Tingya subconsciously tightened her grip on Luo Feng’s hand hearing this.

“Unfortunately, the two adults couldn’t make it before the ambulance arrived because of their serious injuries,” Dean Du recalled. “Later, the fire brigade rushed to the scene to put out the fire. The things in the car were almost burned, and only half of their driver’s licenses were left. There was an ‘Ai’ on them.”

At that time, Ai Tingya was still a baby in swaddling clothes. She was actually unharmed after the collision and fire. This meant that her mother in the backseat was protecting her.

Due to her mother’s greatness, the local government even published a newspaper to search for Ai Tingya’s relatives. However, they had too little information and could not find them. Later, Ai Tingya stayed in the orphanage.

Dean Du unfolded the old newspaper. It had been more than a decade, and the paper was a little brittle. It would break with a little force. She pointed at a small section and said, “This is it. It recorded all the information at that time.”

There was also a photo of Ai Tingya when she was young.

Ai Tingya trembled as she held the newspaper. Her eyes were blurry with tears as she sobbed.

The children in the orphanage would more or less ask the Dean about their parents, but Tingya did not. She was worried that she had been abducted by human traffickers or abandoned by her parents.

She was afraid of facing this truth, so she might as well not touch it.

Ai Tingya knew that she was loved now that she knew that she had parents and that they loved her very much, the golden lock contained their simplest blessings for their child.

Luo Feng put his arm around her shoulder and let her lean against his chest.

Dean Du said to Luo Feng, “I’ve never been to the scene, but I heard from the firefighters that the car was from a good brand. Moreover, Xiaoya’s original family background should be very good looking at this golden lock. You can take note when you go out to study.”

“I’ll remember.” Luo Feng nodded seriously. “Thank you, Dean Du.”

“I should be the one thanking you.” Dean Du looked at Ai Tingya with heartache. “Thank you for taking care of Xiaoya. The two of you have to treat each other well in the future.”

“Okay!”

…

Luo Feng brought Ai Tingya out of Dean Du’s room.

After knowing the truth, Ai Tingya seemed to have lost her soul and let Luo Feng lead her forward.

Ai Tingya stared fixedly at the door when the cold wind in the courtyard blew past her tears and said, “In the past, I always dreamed that two people would appear at the door one day. They would tell me that they were my parents and bring me home. My memories start from the orphanage. I’ve always felt that it was impossible for me to get lost and wondered if I had been abducted.”

She squeezed the golden lock, her dry eyes moistening again. “In the end, the truth was even crueler than I thought. They’ll never come.”

Luo Feng touched her hair. “They will definitely be very proud to see you like this in Heaven.”

Ai Tingya leaned on Luo Feng’s shoulder and whimpered softly.

…

Ai Tingya had been staring blankly at the golden lock for a few days ever since she found out about her background.

In the past, she would not have thought about it if she did not dare to ask. Now that she knew, she could not ignore it.

She would always take out the old newspaper and read it back and forth, as if she could find new clues between the lines. Ai Tingya knew that it was futile, but she could not restrain her thoughts.

On this day, there were no customers in the milk tea shop. Ai Tingya sat at the table in a daze again.

When she saw a family of three walking hand in hand by the roadside, her eyes followed the others until they turned the corner and were out of sight.

Luo Feng’s heart ached when he saw her like this, so he took a cup of the new products from the shop and placed it in front of Ai Tingya.

...

“Thank you.” Ai Tingya took a sip and praised indifferently. “It tastes good.”

Luo Feng held her hand that was holding the milk tea and said, “Tingya, do you still remember our agreement?”

Now that Ai Tingya’s mind was filled with her family, there was no place for her to contain an agreement. “What?”

“Come with me.” Luo Feng pulled Ai Tingya up and said, “I’m going to fulfill my promise.”
