The little girl was dumbfounded and stared at him in a daze. He looked so beautiful, like a prince in a cartoon.

Soon, the bell rang indicating the end of the lesson. Su Enran took the book in the little girl’s hand, opened the first page, and read it aloud, “Before …”

Although he didn’t know some words, he had already learned Pinyin. So he could read it. He remembered these stories long ago. Because when he was young, they accompanied him to sleep every time he went to bed. Although his parents didn’t help him read story books then, looking at the children around who did not even have parents, he felt like a lucky person.

Su Enran’s clear voice attracted other students who were playing. Some of them were playing small games and some were fooling around with the camera. Suddenly they heard a good voice, and the people around them slowly gathered together, driven by curiosity, and followed.

The sunlight came in from the window, and it just shone on Su Enran who was reading. It was like putting a layer of light on him, like the wings of light, and it looked very dazzling.

Su Enran noticed that more people gathered around, and looked at him distractedly, and was startled.

The voice reading aloud stopped, and someone yelled, “Enran, you read really well.”

“Enran, you know so many words, so amazing.”

Surrounded by praise sounds, Su Enran who rarely stood in front of the public, with this being the first time he read aloud in front of so many people, was both shy and scared.

“Enran, I want to listen, continue to read it,” some people shouted, so everyone responded.

“I want to listen too.”

“I want to as well.”

Su Enran looked at their eager eyes and breathed out a sigh from his chest. This was the first time he had been needed. His heart was both nervous and expectant. He breathed out deeply and then continued to read .

The sound gradually became louder.

The noisy classroom became quiet, only his clear voice, and the sound of leaves blowing in the window was heard.

When Jian Yi went around the Welfare Home and saw the teacher standing at the window with a smile on her face but did not enter, and the classroom was quiet, she walked over curiously, “What’s wrong?”

The teacher motioned her to look inside.

Jian Yi turned her eyes to the classroom. Everyone was quietly sitting around Su Enran, listening to him telling stories seriously. This was the first time she saw Su Enran and so many children playing in harmony.

Zhao Wenqi said that in the past Su Enran was always alone in school. He rarely communicated with others, and didn’t even talk much when he came home.

Seeing him like this, Jian Yi smiled. Su Enran changed a lot and became more dazzling.

After finishing the story, Jian Yi walked into the classroom, made Su Anqi stand on the table, freed up her hands and applauded. Everyone looked over and applauded.

“Su Enran is awesome,” Jian Yi gave him a thumbs up. She thought Su Enran was still a little fledgling without her, but he quietly became an eagle and could soar in the sky by himself.

Sometimes letting go gives kids room to grow.

Su Enran closed the story book, revealing a shy smile. He was very happy. It was an unprecedented feeling, and it was much simpler than he thought.

After that, everyone surrounded Su Enran and asked him various questions. Su Enran adapted well.

Seeing everyone having a good time, the teacher walked into the classroom and clapped her hands, attracting everyone’s attention, “Today’s class is over. Everyone, go to the craftsmanship room.”

The teacher asked the younger children to play by themselves, and led the slightly older children to the craftsmanship room.

The craftsmanship there was not only the simple craftsmanship of the school. Some Welfare Homes would cooperate with some companies because of insufficient funds, so that the children could do some simple manual work in exchange for the living expenses of the Welfare Homes.

They had to string beads. The children in the orphanage started to do manual training after they were four years old. It would take about two hours a day.

Children who went to school also had to do it when they came back. This was one of the ways to maintain life. Sometimes if a loving person donated, then the food for that month would be better.

The ground was not large, and large tables enclosed it. There were small baskets with beads and threads.

Jian Yi had been following Su Enran, looking at his curious eyes, and pushed him gently, “Go ahead and listen carefully to what the teacher teaches.”

He sat upright and listened carefully to the teacher’s explanation.

After the lecture, he followed the steps the teacher told to pick up the beads and start stringing.

“No, you are doing it wrong.” Just when Su Enran was doing it seriously, there was a quick and weak voice beside him. Su Enran turned his head. It was the little girl who had just asked him to tell the story.

 “Wrong?”

“Yes, you should do this.” 

The little girl took the beads and thread from Su Enran’s hand and demonstrated it to him. Su Enran only then realized it.

He turned the beads upside down, no wonder they looked different from others. He smiled slightly, “Thank you.”

After teaching, the little girl got shy, “You’re welcome.”

With that, she bowed her head and began to do the work seriously.
