Chapter 230: Past Life (Fifth Watch)

The azure planet.

Our eternal vigil.

In Lu Ye's eyes, a planet appeared, and his view was rapidly closing in.

Lu Ye's thoughts came to a halt at the last moment.

It turned out that his first life was on Earth.

Heavy rain!

Overpass!

The rain fell urgently, thunder roared, and the world was vast and bleak.

Little Lu Ye crawled out of the car, his tiny mind still echoing with his parents' scathing words.

They were using the most venomous language to attack the people closest to them.

The woman called the man useless, a wimp, and said following him was the biggest mistake of her life.

The man said the woman was lazy like a pig, and even if he had a dog, it would wag its tail for a scrap of food.

The two argued, cursed, their faces contorted.

Little Lu Ye sat in the back seat, hugging his toy, with little reaction to the scene.

Or perhaps, he was already used to it.

Finally, the woman went mad.

She lunged for the man's steering wheel, and in an instant, the world spun out of control.

It hurt.

Lu Ye crawled out of the car and sat in the pouring rain as large vehicles sped past, their horns blaring.

Lu Ye finally came to his senses. He stood up and walked to the front, where he saw his parents, twisted and covered in blood.

But at this moment, his parents looked so peaceful, no longer bearing the terrifying expressions they had before.

Thick smoke rose.

Beams of headlights shone through the darkness.

Someone rushed over and quickly carried Lu Ye away.

Lu Ye watched the flames rising from the car, and an inexplicable thought crossed his mind: how could metal catch fire?

He saw people rushing to where his parents were, trying to open the car door, but it wouldn't budge.

The flames grew larger.

Not even the heavy rain could extinguish them.

Urgent voices echoed around him.

In Lu Ye's dark eyes, only the flames burned.

Finally, everyone evacuated.

They could only helplessly watch as the vehicle was reduced to ruins, burning along with the people inside.

Lu Ye thought, perhaps now his parents wouldn't argue anymore?

He was loaded onto an ambulance.

"What's your name?"

The woman in the green nurse's uniform asked Lu Ye.

"Lu Ye."

"How old are you?"

"Four."

"Don't worry, big sister will take you to a safe place first."

"Okay."

At this moment, Lu Ye neither cried nor made a fuss; it seemed he had long grown accustomed to finding himself in unfamiliar surroundings.

He was taken to the hospital.

A series of tests were conducted, and the results were good.

Perhaps because Lu Ye was sitting in the back seat hugging a doll, he hadn't sustained much injury.

"Patient Lu Ye, four years old, his parents died in a car accident. We contacted his grandparents and great-grandparents, all of whom have passed away, as well as other relatives, but no one is willing to adopt him."

"What about his parents' inheritance?"

"Upon investigation, it was found that both of his parents had substantial debts, leaving them insolvent."

"So, he has nothing now, only this tattered clothing?"

"In a strict sense, yes!"

"Contact the relief organizations."

Lu Ye didn't understand what they were doing; he just felt very quiet and relaxed without his parents around.

Later, a middle-aged man appeared before Lu Ye.

"Lu Ye, right?"

The man had a gentle smile on his face.

Lu Ye nodded.

"I am the director of the orphanage, my name is Li Kaoshan. Would you like to come live with me at the orphanage from now on?"

Lu Ye nodded.

"Good boy!"

"I'll take this child with me then. All the procedures have been completed. If there are any further matters, please contact me. What a pitiful little one."

Li Kaoshan picked up Lu Ye and climbed into the dilapidated minivan.

Inside the vehicle.

Li Kaoshan's smile was gentle.

"Lu Ye, before we enter the orphanage, there's something very important I need to tell you."

Lu Ye looked at Li Kaoshan.

"This very important thing is that you must be obedient, extremely, extremely obedient. Grandpa Director dislikes disobedient children the most. If you're not obedient, you will be punished, understand?" Li Kaoshan smiled naturally and warmly.

Lu Ye felt a chill run through his body.

He huddled closer, his small face tense and serious.

"I have always been obedient."

"That's great, remember what you said, you must always be obedient!"

They arrived at the orphanage.

"Let's welcome our new member of Sunshine Orphanage, Lu Ye!"

"Clap clap clap..."

Immediately, a burst of applause filled the air.

Children of all ages, all orphans, watched Lu Ye with curiosity.

Among them, two pairs of eyes were particularly different.

"Is this my husband's past life? It doesn't seem dangerous at all." Yan Qingcheng muttered to herself.

If it's not dangerous, then it will be easy to handle!
