Bai Yu held the director up and spoke in a gentle tone.
The director struggled to open his eyes, but he could not see anything. He could only recognize Bai Yu's voice.
"Xiao Yu... you were always the most promising child in the orphanage... I knew you would Stand Out someday..."

"The day you left... you said that someday, you would expand the orphanage and give your younger brothers and sisters the best possible living environment..."
"And that you would personally buy me the newest wheelchair, hehe... I never cared about any of that... I only wanted you, once you entered society, to be an honest and grounded person. As long as you didn't hurt those around you, that would be the best repayment..."

He looked at the director's stitched-together body, then at the sisters scattered in pieces nearby...
Uncontrollably, scenes from the day he left the orphanage surfaced in his mind.
He had longed for freedom, yet when the day truly came for him to leave, he could not bear to part with anything in the orphanage.

Anyone who hurt his family, Bai Yu would stand in front of them and protect them with his life!
Now, he had returned, but...
