"Up until this children's welfare home, this is everything I could find out about your life. Have you ever come back to visit before?"
"...When I first started university, when both studying and working were going smoothly, I'd regularly send money to the welfare home."
Cen Dongsheng replied.
"Later, the people here refused it, telling me to save the money for myself."
"You understand the importance of repaying kindness."
"The director said the same. But if you're asking whether I frequently came back to visit…"
He sent money out of gratitude, but his emotional attachment to the welfare home didn't run that deep.
The warmth or coldness of human connections is something only one's own heart knows.
