Falling in Love With My Arranged-Marriage Husband-Chapter 93 - 68: Things seem to be getting more complicated

Chapter 93: Chapter 68: Things seem to be getting more complicated

This one sentence made Yi Feng think of Ji Sang admitting that she indeed used to be a sister in the orphanage. That business newcomer, who at first was regarded with skepticism but later repeatedly admired, now seemed just like a child.

“Sister Ah Shang!”

Ji Sang replied vaguely, not daring to meet Yi Feng’s somewhat fervent gaze because she had her own agenda.

“Actually, I don’t really remember anyone else, just fragments of memories with Sister Ah Shang, but they’re mostly very blurry.”

“I remember one time when it seemed like I secretly took a steamed bun, and the two of us were huddled in the dark room.”

“The steamed bun wasn’t big, but we ate it very carefully for a long time.”

Yi Feng smiled at this thought.

“That’s why I still like eating steamed buns even now.”

Ji Sang’s originally scattered gaze slowly refocused upon hearing the word ‘steamed bun’.

She too had dreamt of this scene.

With trembling long lashes, Ji Sang suppressed the desire in her heart to pursue the truth and quietly continued listening to Yi Feng.

“The orphanage… it wasn’t that good.”

As Yi Feng said this, his expression grew colder, and anger swirled in his eyes.

“They were not good people.”

Starvation, beatings, abuse—

They simply didn’t treat these children as human beings.

“Sister Ah Shang, I won’t let such orphanages exist anymore.”

If it weren’t for Sister Ah Shang protecting him with her body and life, he would have starved or been beaten to death in that endless darkness long ago.

Ji Sang instantly understood.

Probably the reason behind the closing of Tianxin Orphanage was somewhat obscure. She also understood why Yi Feng would restart the orphanage project.

Because past unpleasant memories came up, the rest of the ride was engulfed in silence. When they were about to reach the orphanage, Ji Sang asked the driver to stop the car.

“I’ll get off here.”

Yi Feng frowned.

“Sister Ah Shang, there’s no need.”

But he followed her instructions and stopped at the roadside anyway.

Ji Sang smiled.

“I may not care, but Yi Feng, you need to be cautious.”

He was the heir to a corporate group; image and conduct were extremely important. Although there was no actual illicit relationship between them, it might appear differently to outsiders.

After all, the cooperation between a company and a television station was by no means the same as a mere business partnership.

Yi Group was one of the leading groups in S city, and the inauguration of the orphanage project had undoubtedly garnered the attention of various media within the city.

Moreover, this was the first project personally established by Yi Feng since he joined the management of Yi Group.

At the young age of 22, this business prodigy had his first project in partnership with a television station; the place was almost boiling over with excitement the moment Yi Feng appeared.

Just a few minutes later than him, Ji Sang entered and exchanged a slight nod with Lu Ming before picking up her equipment to prepare for work. It had to be said, the buzz at the venue was justified; even without mentioning his capabilities, Yi Feng’s appearance alone was enough to cause a sensation.

The work was straightforward; it only took Ji Sang a few minutes to capture all the necessary footage. Suddenly, someone gently tugged at her trouser leg.

Ji Sang looked down slightly and saw a little girl curiously looking at her.

Moved, Ji Sang squatted down.

“What’s the matter, kiddo?”

Unlike the other children in the orphanage, the little girl wasn’t shy at all; her bright sparkling eyes looked unwaveringly at Ji Sang as she pointed at the SLR camera and asked sweetly,

“Pretty sister, what’s this thing?”

“This is an SLR camera. Do you want to touch and see?”

“Can I?”

“Of course.”

The little girl first looked at Ji Sang tentatively as if to confirm, and then cautiously stretched out her hand to lightly touch the camera’s shell.

He just felt a touch, then the little hand retracted and placed behind her back.

“Not touching it anymore?”

“No more”

The little girl, like a grown-up, waved her hand dismissively

“Just one touch is enough, pretty sister, can this thing take a picture of that handsome brother?”

Ji Sang froze for a moment before realizing that the “big brother” she was referring to was Yi Feng, and smiled lightly,

“Yes, this device can take many pictures, it can capture all beautiful and pretty things.”

“Wow!”

The little girl opened her mouth wide, raising her small fist.

“Then I also want to, like sister here, photograph the beautiful world.”

Upon hearing this, Ji Sang’s pupils contracted slightly.

“And I will, like auntie here, travel all over the world.”

A childlike voice flashed across her mind, just like the little girl in front of her, saying these words was also a little girl…

To be precise, it was Ji Sang as a child.

Little Ji Sang’s eyes, too, were filled with brightness and yearning like the little girl’s, only back then what she saw was not a DSLR.

Ji Sang closed her eyes, ignoring the faint pain in her head, forcing herself to reminisce.

The dark yellow sky, the house without lights, the blurred face of a woman, the gentle and pleasant voice, the raucous swearing outside…

And that woman’s

…

Xiu Zhen camera.

Ji Sang suddenly opened her eyes, instinctively gasping for air, her temples throbbing from the pain, Ji Sang nearly lost her footing, fortunately bracing herself with her hands on the ground.

The little girl was frightened by the scene before her, hunching her neck slightly,

“Sister… What’s wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable?”

Even though she knew nothing, even though her heart was still a little scared, the little girl bravely reached out her hand and gently patted Ji Sang’s back,

“It’s okay, it’s okay, sister is going to be fine.”

Strangely enough, listening to the little girl’s voice, Ji Sang slowly calmed down and her head seemed to hurt less.

“Thank you, little friend.”

Ji Sang gave a pale smile and reached out to touch the little girl’s face,

“In the future, you will surely become a world-famous photographer.”

The little girl did not understand, not knowing what world-famous meant or what a photographer was, but she nodded earnestly.

The little girl didn’t know, and neither did Ji Sang, that years later, the little girl would indeed become a world-renowned photographer with an unforgettable, earth-shattering story.

Yi Feng, who had been keeping an eye on Ji Sang, promptly ended his speech upon noticing her discomfort, and without caring how many people were around, walked straight towards Ji Sang.

But before he could reach her, Lu Ming had already stepped forward to help her up.

“Are you alright?”

Ji Sang shook her head.

Upon seeing the concerned look in Yi Feng’s eyes, she nodded slightly, signaling him not to come over.

Because of Yi Feng’s movement, the media also followed over. After glancing at Yi Feng, Lu Ming then took Ji Sang inside the orphanage to sit down.

Sheltered from the outside noise, Ji Sang felt much more comfortable.

“What exactly happened just now?”

Lu Ming wasn’t foolish; someone who was fine in the morning shouldn’t suddenly feel unwell.

Ji Sang rubbed her forehead,

“I don’t understand either.”

Who exactly was that gentle woman, and why would she have an Xiu Zhen camera? Was the closure of Tianxin Orphanage due to her? Then why couldn’t any information be found?

As she recalled more of her childhood, everything seemed to get more complicated.
