Chapter 29: Half a Jade Pendant

  "Brother! Sister! You're so shameless, kissing at the entrance!"

  The sudden voice not only startled Xiaoyu Meng, who was frightened and confused, but also scared Lin Fei, who was teasing her, and he quickly let go of his hand and took a step back, causing Xiaoyu Meng to pounce on him in vain.

  "Son of a turtle, Lin Fei, I'm going to kill you!"

  Xia Yingmeng, who was kissed for the second time, shouted frantically. If it weren't for the many children arriving at the welfare institute entrance at this moment, Xia Yingmeng would have pounced on him already, fearing that fighting with Lin Fei might harm innocent people.

  Glaring with round eyes, furious and staring at Lin Fei, if a gaze could kill, Lin Fei would have died a hundred times.

  At this time, Yang, who had just been scared into the welfare institute by a group of thugs and returned to the entrance of the welfare institute again, showed a very surprised expression on his face.

  "Huh? Lin Fei, how is it you? Where's that gang of street thugs, did they run away?"

  Director Yang was very curious, just a little while ago, where did those street thugs who were usually difficult to deal with go? They weren't even afraid of the police.

  Of course, the most curious one is not Director Yang, but Xia Yingmeng. She was even a little surprised that Director Yang would know someone like Lin Fei.

  She couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Director Yang, how do you know this scum? I really don't know what kind of upbringing he had, it's simply more hateful than a hooligan!"

  After listening to Xia Yingmeng's words, Lin Fei just smiled and thought that what she said was very right. If he had the care and guidance of his parents, maybe he wouldn't have become who he is today.

  He has no regrets about who he is today, Lin Fei. Life can't be rewound like a movie, it's just that fate forced him to transform into the person he is today.

  Scoundrel? Bastard? That was just his unknown disguise, so he didn't refute Xia Yingmeng's words and even revealed a faint smile on his face.

  Who knows the helplessness and bitterness in his heart hidden behind a smile?

  Perhaps as the director of the welfare institute, Yang had seen one abandoned child after another and saw through Lin Fei's smile to his heart, giving Xia Yingmeng a displeased look.

  "Officer Xia, what are you talking about? Lin Fei is also a poor kid who was abandoned by his parents at a very young age. The orphanage is his home and the old lady is like his mother..."

  Dean Yang's words caused Xiaoyu to feel a kind of inexpressible shock, she usually came to help as soon as she had time, because she understood those abandoned orphans and their experiences and longings.

  It is precisely because she understands that she will come to the welfare institute to do something within her power whenever she has time.

  "I'm sorry..."

  After learning that Lin Fei was once an orphan in this welfare institution, Xia Yingmeng's anger in her heart suddenly dissipated. Every orphan's childhood is...

  She thought Lin Fei was a rascal, but not very bad at heart. As a police officer, she had an obligation to guide him onto the right path, lest he strayed into illegal ways in the future.

  "No big deal, there have been so many misunderstandings between us. Officer Xia, why don't we just shake hands and put the past behind us? Let's consider everything that happened before today as a misunderstanding. After shaking hands, let's start fresh like we're meeting for the first time."

  Lin Fei was well aware that, based on what he had done to Xia Yingmeng, the other party would definitely argue with him to the death, and being entangled by a female police officer was a troublesome thing.

  He just wants to quietly find his foster parents and doesn't want to make a big deal out of it.

  "Whatever... I'll let it go this time, but next time, you're going to regret messing with me..."

  Xia Yingmeng originally wanted to say that it was impossible... but those words reached the tip of her tongue and were swallowed back, who let her know about Lin Fei's pitiful life.

  After shaking hands and making peace, Xia Yingmeng originally wanted to say a few words to Lin Fei, but at this time, seeing them shake hands and make peace, Dean Yang's face did not reveal a smile, but instead added a hint of sadness.

  "Lin Fei, you've come just in time. The thing you asked me to ask about last time, I personally went to Old Director's house a few days ago, she... before her death, asked me to hand something over to you, follow me!"

  Director Yang was speaking, her eyes suddenly turned red, she quickly turned around, while secretly wiping away tears, and walked towards the welfare institute. Although she is the director of the welfare institute, fifty years ago, she was also an orphan who grew up in this very same welfare institute.

  At that time, the old dean was only in her thirties, but she raised Yang like her own daughter. Dean Yang also regarded the old dean as her own mother.

  The old director's death was a great blow to her, and of course also a great blow to Lin Fei. She stood foolishly at the gate of the welfare home for a long time! A very long time!

  ……

  When Lin Fei received the heirloom from Dean Yang, he was stunned again. The heirloom that the old dean had specifically entrusted to him turned out to be a jade pendant engraved with his name.

  A piece of exquisite jade pendant with extremely fine workmanship, the front of which is carved with a vivid five-clawed golden dragon, symbolizing the hope that one's child will become a dragon and soar to great heights.

  On the back of the jade pendant were engraved two characters: Lin Fei, which was his name!

  "Isn't this Grandma Chen's expectation of herself?"

  Lin Fei clutched the jade pendant tightly in his hand, his expressionless face hiding a heart that was already turbulent like a stormy sea.

  The old dean is a senior and a close relative to him!

  Dean Yang handed the jade pendant to Lin Fei and said astonishingly, "The old dean also asked me to tell you that this jade pendant was picked up by her when she found you, it was hanging around your neck at that time. The old dean was afraid that you would lose it, so she kept it for you. It was because of the name on the jade pendant that your adoptive parents were able to find and raise you later. However, your adoptive parents refused to take the jade pendant with them, so the old dean has been keeping it for you all along..."

  "What?"

  Lin Fei was shocked, he never thought that at this time, he unexpectedly obtained a jade pendant related to his life story. Although having the jade pendant made him want to find his biological parents, it was undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a vast ocean.

  It's better to search for a needle in a haystack than to have nowhere to look at all.

  Look for it? Or not look for it?

  This has become another difficult problem in Lin Fei's heart. When looking for adoptive parents, he still knows what to do, but when looking for biological parents?

  Ask them why they abandoned themselves back then? Lin Fei thought for a moment, and felt that it was unnecessary. So many years have passed, even if he found out now, what could be done about it? Questioning them about abandoning him in the first place would be pointless!

  It's okay if you can't find it, but deep down, I still feel a little reluctant.

  After some thought, Lin Fei decided to let things be and instead asked subconsciously: "What illness did Old Lady Chen have?"

  "I don't know!"

  Director Yang's answer left Lin Fei stunned. What did he mean by "don't know"? She had gone there in person, so why wouldn't she know how Grandma Chen died?

  Isn't there another hidden reason? Lin Fei hastily asked, "Could it be a car accident?"

  Dean Yang shook his head and replied, "The old dean was in good health, but suddenly died at home for no reason. Many people said it was a normal death due to old age, but I don't believe it, so I requested an autopsy. The autopsy was just completed yesterday, and the report will take a few days to come out..."

  "Really... Director Yang, can I trouble you with something? When the autopsy report comes out, could you please notify me? I'd also like to go pay my last respects to Old Lady Chen!"

  Lin Fei made his request, and President Yang naturally agreed without hesitation. After all, Lin Fei, who had lived in the welfare institute for a period of time, was also considered one of the old president's children.

  The old dean passed away. Lin Fei went to see him for the last time, wearing mourning attire and sending off the old dean on his final journey, all of which was reasonable and proper.

  Then Lin Fei handed over all the money in the bag to Director Yang, he was very relieved, that money, Director Yang would definitely use every penny on the children in the welfare home.

  Dean Yang was initially unwilling to accept it, after all, 100,000 yuan was too much. Although the welfare home needed money now, she felt that Lin Fei also needed money.

  After all, Lin Fei is already so old and is about to get married. You should know that nowadays, getting married means spending money. In rural areas, it costs at least tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of yuan to get married, let alone in the city?

  However, under Lin Fei's persistence and persuasion, Dean Yang reluctantly agreed to accept half of the money, after all, she could bear to dress poorly and eat poorly when the children in the welfare institution couldn't.

  After seeing Dean Yang reluctantly accept the 50,000 yuan, Lin Fei, who had just learned of the old dean's passing, was in a terrible mood and didn't plan on staying at the welfare institute any longer. Sometimes, memories can be the most heart-wrenching.

  Ke Lin Fei had just walked out of the welfare institute when his phone suddenly rang!
