Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1092: Chapter 1093: Swearing in the Name of the Lord

Xiao Cheng Su was sent back to the nursery. Cheng Su watched eagerly, and the director took it all in, becoming more convinced of one thing: Cheng Su surely knew this child.

As for the truth, it’s unknown. Everyone has secrets they cannot speak of.

"...In fact, a child growing up in a wholesome family is a thousand times better than in an orphanage. If you, kind person, know the child’s background, I hope you can persuade her parents. Children are angels in their parents’ hearts," the director said again.

Cheng Su withdrew her gaze and said to the director, "Director, I understand what you mean, but I really don’t know who her parents are. I swear in the name of the Lord."

The director was slightly taken aback and sighed, "That’s really a pity!"

Having sworn in the name of the Lord, what more could she demand?

"I have had similar experiences, director. I am willing to sponsor her growth. If someone else adopts her, that would be best. If not, I will support her until adulthood," Cheng Su said.

In her past life, she was never adopted but was treated as a daughter by the director growing up.

But in this life, even the days of being abandoned at the orphanage had changed; this trajectory had already altered, and she did not know if the future would change.

"Thank you for your kindness," the director clasped her hands together and said, "Since you have such a kind heart, would you please come with me to handle the paperwork?"

Cheng Su nodded numbly.

Sponsoring is not as complicated as adoption. Adoption requires comprehensive documentation, while sponsorship just involves providing money and registering.

In the identity information column, Cheng Su left it blank. The director was puzzled, so Cheng Su said, "I only hope she grows up without burdens, so there’s no need to leave it."

The director frowned slightly. Is there an unspeakable secret in not even leaving information?

"Director, my name is Cheng Su!" Cheng Su suddenly said.

The director exclaimed, remembering that she also renamed the child as Cheng Su, and nodded with a smile, "Little Cheng Su will be grateful to you!"

Cheng Su smiled and then asked if she could stay for a night because she came from a faraway city and didn’t live in this city.

"That is of course possible."

"Then, can I stay with Little Cheng Su for a night? I want to see more of her," Cheng Su asked.

"It is rare to see a kind person so close to a child like you. If you hadn’t sworn in the name of the Lord, I would certainly believe you are her parent or know her parents," the director said.

Cheng Su replied, "Perhaps seeing her is like seeing my childhood self, so it touches me profoundly!"

The director smiled without speaking.

After completing the paperwork, the director went to arrange Cheng Su’s accommodation, letting Cheng Su wander freely.

Cheng Su borrowed a phone from her, as she needed to call the hotel lest Wang Bo and the others worry themselves sick if she didn’t return for the night.

Wang Bo and the others weren’t at the hotel; they might have gone out somewhere. Cheng Su asked the hotel owner to leave a message indicating her whereabouts.

After making the call, Cheng Su walked out of the director’s office. Outside, the sky was blue with white clouds. It was afternoon, and the children were playing in the playground. Seeing Cheng Su, they all stopped to look.

Cheng Su felt as though she had returned to her childhood, also stopping to look expectantly when seeing someone.

She walked over and asked, "What are you playing? Can we play together?"

The director and the nun stood together, watching Cheng Su play the eagle-catching-chicken game with the children. The nun asked, "Director, is she really not that child’s mother or relative?"

The director shook her head and said, "She is not." How could someone who loves children so much abandon their own flesh and blood?
