Chapter 2002: Don’t Refuse This
Xiao Ding was not exaggerating when he said his entire family would be there. They had arrived in spectacular and impressive style. They even brought the babies.
“Doctor Jiang.”
With a glimpse, Ding Xiaomei recognized Jiang Yao at the exit. She greeted Jiang Yao as soon as she stepped out, then nervously stroked her palm. “Are we going to see Xiao Ding now? By the way, how tall is Xiao Ding now?”
“We are leaving right now. Xiao Ding is with the welfare institute.” Jiang Yao could tell Ding Xiaomei’s family was worried about something, so she reassured them with a soothing voice. “Seeing you all here will make Xiao Ding extremely pleased. Let’s go,” Jiang Yao said.
Jiang Yao rented a bus ahead of time since she knew Xiao Ding’s family had many people. They rode the bus to the welfare institute after that.
Xiao Ding and his friends waited with the director at the welfare institute’s entrance, looking forward to meeting his family. Xiao Ding did not even blink when the bus came to a halt at the school gate.
Xiao Ding only remembered Ding Xiaomei. They were siblings. As soon as Ding Xiaomei came down the bus, Xiao Ding immediately recognized her.
Xiao Ding was generally a calm boy, but when he saw his family and sister, whom he had been waiting for for a long time, he could not help but pounce on them.
Xiao Ding’s stifled cries eventually reawakened everyone’s emotions. Even Jiang Yao’s eyes reddened when she saw the family hugging one other sorrowfully.
“Xiao Ding is a blessed child.”
The director felt relieved when he saw the attitude of Xiao Ding’s family toward Xiao Ding.
It was not as if the director had not encountered a reunion between a missing child and their family. However, it was the first time he had met a family that came to pick up a child.
The director could see that those people were not rich. However, they were willing to pay the ticket and expenditures to pick up Xiao Ding to bring him home.
It took a long time for the situation to calm down. Ding Xiaomei held her son in one hand and Xiao Ding in the other. The three of them walked toward Jiang Yao and the director. They were caught off guard when the three family members knelt toward them.
“Doctor Jiang, I don’t know how else to express my gratitude, so don’t refuse this gesture! You are our family’s benefactor. You saved my son and me and even helped me find my younger brother. Doctor Jiang, you know how important Xiao Ding is to me. I couldn’t forgive myself until I found him again. Doctor Jiang, I will remember your kindness for the rest of my life!”
Ding Xiaomei cried as she gently kowtowed toward Jiang Yao before turning to the director and saying, “Director, thank you for caring for Xiao Ding. He had suffered a lot before he met you and Doctor Jiang. People like us don’t trust others easily. Xiao Ding told me that you took care of him and protected him. You even taught him to read and write. Xiao Ding respects you. Our family is very grateful to you for taking care of Xiao Ding.”
It was critical for a child to have someone to guide them as they grow up. A guide was like a light source. They would have the power to either point an innocent child to a world of grand ambitions or suppress the youngster’s progression.
Xiao Ding had been very unlucky in the past, and then he was fortunate. He had Lu Xingzhi and Jiang Yao to guide him, and then he had the director’s guidance..
