The little girl looked very well-behaved, hugging a small wooden figure and quietly looking at Fu Yuling.
Fu Yuling’s heart softened instantly. She bent down and rubbed the girl’s head. “Do you want some candy?”
The little girl neither spoke nor reached out, just continued to look at her.
Helpless, Fu Yuling squatted down and gently touched her face.
For children, even a simple touch can convey goodwill.
“Why aren’t you talking?”
She asked several questions without receiving any answers.
Fu Yuling took some candy from her pocket and opened her palm in front of the girl.
She smiled warmly. “This is for you.”
Seeing the candy, the little girl cautiously reached out to touch it. After she grabbed it, she looked at Fu Yuling nervously.
“Is there more?”
Fu Yuling often kept candy in her pocket to give to He Wen and the others as rewards from time to time, but now she had given away everything she had.
Suddenly, she remembered some items she had stored in her space, including some pastries.
“Be good, wait a moment.”
After saying that, Fu Yuling went directly to her bag. Using the act of retrieving something as a cover, she slowly took out the mung bean cakes she had made earlier.
She took out the boxes one by one and handed them all to the little girl, who immediately ran off to join the other children surrounding the beggar.
Next, Fu Yuling watched them happily eating the pastries and chatting with the beggar.
At this moment, she no longer felt like an outsider. She was more satisfied by the joy she brought them.
The beggar said a few words to the children, and they quickly dispersed, but no one came over to Fu Yuling.
The beggar slowly moved closer, and Fu Yuling could tell he wanted to say something.
“That child just now doesn’t speak much and is the most protective of this place. She’s very sensible.”
Fu Yuling nodded, realizing it.
The girl resembled He An from before. She was silent, as if she were isolated from the world.
Before leaving, as the beggar was closing the door, he called out to Fu Yuling’s back, “Don’t come here again.”
Fu Yuling paused briefly and then slowly walked away.
After leaving, her destination was the department store to buy some ingredients for desserts.
Walking down the street, she suddenly saw someone fall nearby, crashing to the ground.
Fu Yuling quickly stepped back and avoided the collision.
The person on the ground groaned in pain, and even dramatically clutched his leg and claimed that it was broken and demanded compensation from the man standing beside him.
Following the direction of the scammer’s gaze, Fu Yuling looked at the man.
On his pair of long legs stood a man with deep features, an attractive face, but a cold and indifferent expression. His striking amber eyes were captivating.
He was being pointed at, but he simply watched quietly, showing no other expression.
The man did not intend to pay attention to the scammer and made a move to leave, but the scammer grabbed his leg. In an instant, the man shook him off, sending the scammer flying several meters away. This time, he was really injured.
“Ahhh…”
Fu Yuling wasn’t far and instinctively turned her head back, startled by the scream.
Now the scammer was even less likely to let the man go. He kept shouting loudly.
“Everyone, come look! Someone is hitting people in public!!! How pitiful I am, with elderly parents and young children to take care of at home. I’m just trying to make a living outside, and now I’ve been hit. I’m so miserable…”
