Arriving at the small courtyard of the woodshed, the young girl led Qin Li straight inside. A burly man in his forties came out to greet them. Seeing Xiaoying, a smile spread across his face. "Miss Xiaoying, what brings you here?"
"Mr. Li, I've brought someone for you." Xiaoying pointed at Qin Li and said, "Please find a good task for him, Mr. Li. He's had a rough time and wants to earn some money to support his family!"
As she spoke, Xiaoying gave Qin Li another smile. "Mr. Li is a very good person. Work hard under him, and I'll come see you again when I have time!"
With that, she turned and ran off, her steps light. Her fluttering yellow skirt made her look just like a butterfly flitting among the flowers.
In that instant, something tugged gently at Qin Li's heartstrings.
