"I'm an orphan. I grew up in an orphanage from a very young age. Maybe it was because of favoritism toward boys, or maybe I was just the result of fleeting passion between a man and a woman who couldn't take responsibility afterward!"
Wang Xiaofei paused for a moment, then continued speaking again.
"During school, once my classmates found out I was an orphan, not only did they mock me and call me a bastard, they bullied me all the time! Every time I was beaten until my whole body was covered in wounds, so thin that bones showed through!"
"At that time, I was completely hopeless, because I had no background, no capital, and nothing I could rely on! More than once, I thought about killing myself, about leaving this cold world behind."
"From childhood to adulthood, whether during school or later when I worked in society, whenever people found out I was an orphan, they always looked at me with strange eyes!"
"I was unwilling to accept it. Just because I don't have parents, does that mean I can't stand on my own? Just because I don't have a complete family, does that mean I can't live a life that belongs to me?"
Wang Xiaofei poured everything out in one long emotional outburst, telling Chen Yuxuan all the words that had been buried deep in his heart.
Listening to Wang Xiaofei's heartfelt confession from the side, Chen Yuxuan was also deeply moved.
"Boss Chen, you're the first person who never treated me coldly! You're also the only person in this world who has genuinely cared about me!"
"I want to follow you from now on. I'm willing to stay by your side and work for you. I hope you can give me a chance." Wang Xiaofei said as he respectfully bowed deeply toward Chen Yuxuan.
Wang Xiaofei's sincerity and loyalty were all clearly seen by Chen Yuxuan. If this had been yesterday, he would have accepted him without hesitation.
But now, four people had already been recruited. He was willing to help others, but he wasn't some saint!
"Then stay! But you'll have to solve your own housing problem. Go clean yourself up first, then come eat. A grown man crying like this—aren't you embarrassed? Anyway, we can talk about things tomorrow…" Just as Chen Yuxuan was hesitating, Chen Xueying walked over and spoke.
Hearing Chen Xueying's words, Wang Xiaofei glanced at Chen Yuxuan.
"Don't look at me. This is my little sister, Chen Xueying. She has the final say in this house! Whatever she says goes…" Chen Yuxuan spread his hands helplessly.
"Thank you, Sister Ying! Thank you for giving me this chance. I guarantee that my performance in the future will definitely not disappoint you." Wang Xiaofei said excitedly.
"Alright! Come with me to wash up first." Chen Yuxuan said, patting Wang Xiaofei on the shoulder.
Then he walked toward the back door, and Wang Xiaofei hurriedly followed.
Their dinner had already been prepared, but now there was an extra Wang Xiaofei. They could only try their luck with the remaining nine blind box spheres to see if they could open some food.
In the end, they opened three cups of instant noodles, two packs of chocolate, one case of pineapple beer, one case of toothpaste, one case of toothbrushes, and an electronic lucky cat.
Chen Yuxuan felt that this ten-pull from the blind boxes was a massive loss. One hundred gold coins, and all he got was this pile of trash. He tossed the three cups of instant noodles to Wang Xiaofei and told him to handle them himself.
After eating and drinking their fill, Wang Xiaofei left the shop to figure out where he would stay for the night. In the end, he found a rundown house nearby and settled there temporarily.
The convenience store was as quiet as usual at night, with very few customers coming in. The business hours passed in the blink of an eye, and after closing the shop, Chen Yuxuan returned to the house.
"Girl… the delivery staff are already recruited! Why did you still take in Wang Xiaofei? There are so many pitiful people in this world!" After returning to the living room and sitting down, Chen Yuxuan looked at his sister and asked.
