The sensitive Chen Ge realized the source of the problem . Fan Yu had a pair of eyes that could see ghosts . The boy was not bad, and the things that he said might sound weird to adult ears, but they were most likely true .
"Yes, to not interrupt the other children's treatment, we had to send them to an actual children's psychiatrist for counselling . You have to understand that we're a public institution; the budget we receive is limited . Most of the time, our operation depends on kind donations from the public . " The president sighed . "It's fine if we need to send the children to a psychiatrist once or twice, but we won't be able to afford it if this continues . "
Then, the president raised his head to look at Chen Ge like he was trying to gauge his attitude . He saw Chen Ge was in deep contemplation . He assumed Chen Ge understood what he was trying to say, so he sighed in relief . He said directly, "Based on Fan Yu's condition, the chance of him being adopted is low, and since you're Fan Yu's only family, I feel like compared to an environment like the Children's Home, Fan Yu is more suitable staying with his family . "
The room fell into silence .
After two minutes, Chen Ge came to a decision . "Fan Yu did not do anything wrong . "
The president was startled . He thought that he did not explain himself clearly enough . "I know this is not Fan Yu's fault . We're merely hoping he can have a healthy growth, so do not misunderstand . "
"What did Fan Yu tell these kids?" Chen Ge looked at the president seriously . "You have to tell me without missing a word; these kids might be in danger . "
"Danger?" The president stared at Chen Ge for a full three seconds . His lips fell open, and the speech that he had prepared was completely useless . They were not on the same wavelength . Looking at Chen Ge, he suddenly felt that Fan Yu's condition might be hereditary .
"Yes, please tell me what Fan Yu has said and the names and contact information of those children . They might be in serious danger," Chen Ge repeated seriously; it did not sound like he was kidding .
The president forced a smile . "Mr . Chen, I'll be direct . Fan Yu doesn't feel any sense of belonging to our Children's Home; he probably wishes to stay with his family . He's a very clever child, but he has some internal issues . If you have the financial power, we hope that you can bring him away with you and send him to an official and professional psychiatrist for treatment . "
"Temporarily, that is not possible . My place is not safe . " Chen Ge was telling the truth . At least until the ghost stories society had been taken care off, he could not take Fan Yu back to his Haunted House .
The president had heard many excuses when people refused adoption, but a lack of security was a first . "Okay, but you have to come see him often to communicate with him . We will try to do our best . "
"Thank you . "
The nurse led Chen Ge out of the president's room . The nurse felt embarrassed, and she said, "It's not our intention to chase Fan Yu away . The boy is obedient and clever; he just tends to do weird things . "
Chen Ge smiled but did not argue . "I know what you're trying to express, but have you considered that what he says is the truth?"
The nurse slowed down . She glanced at Chen Ge . For some reason, she felt like this man was rather convincing . "We're here . "
The nurse stopped at the door next to the room when they ran into the two boys earlier . Both rooms' doors were open . "Jiang He and Jiang Jin are on the run again . "
She entered one of the rooms in a hurry . Then there came the sound of glass shattering from the bedroom . A girl started to cry, wailing the words, "Big Sister!"
It sounded like her sister was being bullied .
"Jiang Jin, Jiang He! Go and face the wall!" The nurse lectured the two boys while Chen Ge stood at the door . He looked at the painted card, and among all the children with the surname Jiang, Fan Yu's name stood out .
This boy sure likes to make people worry about him . Chen Ge entered the bedroom and saw Fan Yu, who was seated at the table, drawing with his head lowered . He did not seem to mind the outside world . Beside Fan Yu was a little girl who could not stop crying . She used her small hands to wipe her eyes, but the tears would not stop falling . She kept calling for her sister .
After the nurse dealt with Jiang Jin and Jiang He, she hugged the girl to console her, but the girl only cried even harder . Her watery eyes turned red, and her finger pointed at Jiang He and Jiang Jin . "They killed sister! They killed my big sister!"
The girl was cute, and the clothes she was wearing was rather thick . Carried in the nurse's embrace, she looked like a ball of cotton . But from the lips of the cute girl, cruel terms like killed and murder kept coming out .
"Jiang Jin, Jiang He! What have you two done‽" The nurse was angry, feeling pity for the little girl .
"We just wanted to take a look at her glass cup, but she refused to give it up . It accidentally broke, and someone accidentally stepped on the spider inside the cup," the two boys grumbled with dissatisfaction .
"Spider? Big sister?" Chen Ge turned to look at the center of the bedroom . The glass cup was shattered, and amid the broken pieces, there was a flattened spider .
After the situation had been cleared up, the nurse had the two boys leave the room first, and she focused on consoling the girl . However, the girl refused to listen, and she cried even harder . She struggled from the nurse's embrace and picked up the flattened spider from the ground . Without any disgust, she held the spider in her palms and ran to Fan Yu . With a despairing voice, she wailed, "They killed sister! Big sister is dead!"
The little girl looked like she was only four or five . Even when she stood on her tiptoes, she was just slightly taller than the table . Fan Yu, who was focused on his drawing, ignored the girl .
In the end, however, his patience was worn thin by the girl . He put down the pen and placed his hand on the girl's head . "Sister is not dead—she just left temporarily . "
Fan Yu used his other hand to pick up the picture and showed it to the girl . "Your sister was just behind you . "
On the normal paper, a black coloring pencil drew out a little girl that was closely bound, and behind the girl was a large humanoid monster that was sketched out using a red pencil!
It was lying behind the girl, and its head was stretched to rest on the girl's head . Its limbs were arced on the ground just like a spider . Looking at Fan Yu's drawing, the little girl finally stopped crying .
He tussled the girl's hair, and Fan Yu turned to look at Chen Ge at the door . "Look, Sister is now standing behind that man . "
