Trying to be a useful person is Jane Xiaodan’s simple dream.

Gaoleng had asked her a similar question before, standing at Welfare Institute’s door. Remembering the bleak autumn winds, Gaoleng casually asked, “Xiaodan, what is your dream?”

“My dream is to be a useful person. As long as it’s useful.” Jane Xiaodan said softly. At that time, Gaoleng asked casually, but Jane Xiaodan answered with exceptional seriousness.

“Useful?” At that time, Gaoleng was very surprised. How could the dream of a girl in her twenties be so Jian Dan? Shouldn’t a superstar fall in love with him, meet a perfect love and spend the rest of his life together, or accomplish something like that?

“Yes, try to be a useful person.” Jian Xiaodan said indifferently as she looked into the distance, “Only when it’s useful will it not be abandoned.”

The people who said these words were calm, and the people who heard them felt sad.

Over the next six months, Gaoleng had asked her once or twice why she dreamed of it. Jane Xiaodan had stopped every time she clicked on it. Gaoleng didn’t ask much because she was afraid of touching her sensitive field. She just increased her salary, settled her house, and rented it across the street from her. The house was about to be handed over, and Hook Village’s Welfare Institute was also under construction according to Jane Xiaodan’s idea, and it was estimated that it would be completed and put into use by the end of the year.

Gaoleng knew that Jane Xiaodan’s wish must have a lot to do with her background. She wanted to take good care of her in the future as if she were her brother.

It’s fine if you live a good life. Since the past is sad, then let it go with the wind. Since then, Gaoleng has never talked to her about dreams or life experiences,

“Is that what you wrote after your certificate?”

“That’s right, ‘work hard to become a useful person ‘. That’s enough. I don’t want to talk about it anymore.” After saying that, Jian Xiaodan hung up the phone and smiled at Santana, who was driving in front of her.

—–

More than ten years ago, in a small coastal city.

“Whose child are you?”

“My surname is Jane and my name is Jian Dan.”

“Where’s your mother?”

“My mother has gone to the bathroom. She will definitely come. She wants me to wait for her here.”

At that time, her name was not Jian Xiaodan.

Her name was Jian Dan, and when her parents named her, they probably wanted her to live a simple life.

A kindergarten uniform was obviously too thin in the early autumn morning. She was shivering from the cold and curled up under the bridge. Her two pigtails were messy, and she didn’t know if her lips were cold or hungry, dark black.

It was early in the morning, and Qiushuang was still there. Most of the people who lit it up and strolled around were uncles and aunts.

“Call the police. This child slept under the bridge the day before yesterday and last night. He must have been abandoned.” An old granny sighed and took out a steamed bun from the bag and stuffed it into Jian Dan.

“Thank you, Grandma.” Jian Xiaodan’s voice was filled with childishness and gratitude. She took the steamed bun and stuffed it into her mouth. She took a bite and half of the steamed bun fell down. The word “wolf spitting out tiger swallowing” was the most appropriate word.

“Eat slowly, eat slowly.” The granny sighed again.

“It’s a female doll. She must have been abandoned. Then there’s a toilet. How could she run far? Besides, she has to take her with her when she goes to the toilet. How could she be left here alone to wait for her?” An aunt looked up and down at Jian Dan and said, “It’s pretty good-looking. These parents are so heartless.”

“Who would lose a male doll? A male doll is useful for old age. It’s useless for a female doll to be raised.” An old man was obviously not surprised by such a thing. In that age of preference for sons, there were indeed too many female dolls that had been thrown away.

“Did you call the police? The police will be here soon. It’s better to send Welfare Institute.”

“The abandoned children are all given to Welfare Institute. Let’s see if anyone else adopts them.”

The group of uncles and aunts under the bridge began to discuss and looked sympathetically at Jian Dan, who was curled up in a corner and gnawing on steamed buns. There was more and more fear in Jian Dan’s eyes. She raised her head and looked at everyone, “What does abandonment mean?”

Jian Dan, four or five years old, had never heard of the word.

“Forsaken means that I don’t want you anymore. Your mother doesn’t want you anymore. I’ve lost you.”

“Yes, what a lovely child. How pitiful. Your mother doesn’t want you anymore. The police will be here soon.”

Jian Dan stared blankly at the adults around her. She looked around with a mouthful of dried steamed buns in her mouth. She turned her gaze to the old lady who gave her the steamed buns. She looked at the old lady hopefully.

“Your mother doesn’t want you anymore. When the police uncle comes,” the old lady squatted down.

Bah, Jian Dan spat out the steamed bun in his mouth to the ground, tears streaming down his face, “My mother will not abandon me. She told me that she would come to pick me up when she went to the bathroom there!” Jian Dan pointed her finger at the distance, unusually resolute. She looked at everyone angrily, “You are all bad people! Call the police to catch my bad people!”

With that, Jian Dan turned around and ran away like crazy.

The unintentional discussion had hurt the four-or five-year-old’s heart, and the police were about to bring her to a place they had never heard of before, called ‘Welfare Institute’, which frightened little Jian Dan.

“Aiaiai, quickly catch that child!”

“Such a small child, we need to send Welfare Institute as soon as possible. Don’t run into any bad people outside!”

A few aunts and uncles became nervous, and a nimble uncle chased after them. He ran like crazy, frightened Jian Dan, and fell to the ground with a slap.

“Don’t run, don’t run. The police will be here soon.”

‘”Police…” Jian Dan always respected the police. In the story books, the police uncle was always a good person and a hero. However, at this moment, Jian Dan was extremely frightened by the word “police”. “The police arrested me and I won’t see Mom. I told Mom to wait here. Mom will definitely come and pick me up.”

Jian Dan got up from the ground with a large piece of skin on his knee.

“You child, you really …” The old man who caught up immediately grabbed onto your shoulder. The old man panted, “Don’t run around with such a small child. The police will …”

Ah! ! ! An uncle’s mournful scream came.

Terrified, Jian Dan opened his mouth and bit the hand that grabbed his arm. He quickly ran away and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

“Aiyo, look at this doll! It’s cunning! It actually bit me!” The old man couldn’t help but stretch out his hand to see how powerful a four or five year old doll could bite. He was frightened and ruthless, and even if he took a single bite, the old man’s skin would crack open.

“This little doll is so ignorant!” An old lady walked over and hurriedly looked at the wound on the old man’s hand. “There are so many vagrants in this area. It’s really not sensible for a girl to run away just like that!”

“She has been under this bridge for three days. A female doll is not like a male doll. Be careful of any perverts!”

Everyone started to talk and looked around, but they couldn’t find Jian Dan.

At that time, her name was not Jane Xiaodan, but Jian Dan.

“Where is he? Where is the abandoned child?” The policeman came and asked.

“I ran away. I can’t find it anymore.” Everyone pointed to the distance.

At that time, before there were any cameras on the streets, Jian Dan had just disappeared in front of everyone. It was unknown where he had run to and what he would experience.

“Run away?” The policeman was a little worried, “There are a lot of homeless people in this area…”
