Chapter 287: Chapter 277: Lin Xiuxiang is to be taken away by force

The cookies were freshly baked that morning, still warm, and their comforting heat seemed to travel from Qiao Jing’s palm straight into her heart.

Images of the children appeared in Qiao Jing’s mind, bringing a soft smile to her face.

“I just wanted to do that, I don’t need anything in return, as long as they are happy and joyful, that’s enough for me,” she said.

Xu Moqian didn’t bother them further, as he had to think more about how to implement his plan. He bade Qiao Jing farewell.

“Sister Jing, I’ll be going first, you two take your time chatting,” he said.

Qiao Jing nodded gently in response.

...

Lin Xiuxiang smiled and took out her phone.

“Qiao Qiao, I want to show you some videos and photos the kids asked me to take for you,” she said.

The first item in the photo album was a picture of the children from the orphanage.

As she handed her phone to Qiao Jing, Lin Xiuxiang reminded her, “They insisted that you watch all of them.”

Seeing the children’s innocently bright smiles, Qiao Jing couldn’t help but smile along with them.

Upon opening the first video, several little girls were huddled together, holding flowers they had picked from who knows where, their faces filled with concern.

“Sister Qiao, please take good care of yourself and get well soon, and remember to eat the cookies we made,” they said.

“And also, we miss you so much, when will you have the time to come see us?”

“Remember to come visit us, okay?”

“…”

Qiao Jing let out a quiet laugh and continued watching another video involving a group of little boys before moving on to a group photo of everyone.

After she had looked at all the photos and videos, she meant to give the phone back to Lin Xiuxiang but noticed that her friend was staring blankly at the bag of cookies.

Qiao Jing could sense that Lin Xiuxiang’s mood had suddenly dropped while she was preoccupied with the phone, her mind drifting away.
