Chapter 216: Chapter 216 She Holds Up the Sky for the Orphans 3_1

Long Yang hung his head so low under Shen Tianxing’s scolding it was almost touching the ground. Cold sweat seeped from his face and tears swelled in his eyes, mingling together before dripping one by one onto the floor, quickly forming two small puddles.

Before, every time Tianxing faced him, her beautiful face always bore a kind smile, and Long Yang had always thought that Tianxing had a good temper.

This was the first time he had seen Tianxing be so stern with him.

This only served to show how disappointed the master was with his performance.

Long Yang didn’t know how to describe his feelings—he felt wronged, hated himself for not being strong enough, and thought Tianxing was too disrespectful. He had been working hard here by himself for so long, and even if he had not achieved much, shouldn’t his hard work count for something? Did none of the masters see that?

When Tianxing saw Long Yang, a normally upbeat and competent woman, crying like a tearful wreck after being scolded, she also felt somewhat uncomfortable.

She dissolved the barrier and said to Long Yang and the others, "You all go and do what you need to do. Dismiss Hua Chunyan immediately. As for Hua Kun, I will deal with him personally. I want to see just how far a petty village official’s influence can go."

The orphanage’s newly recruited office and nursing staff had previous thoughts that, upon hearing Long Yang refer to their boss as just a teenage girl, it was nothing serious—perhaps just another rich kid playing at charity.

But now, after witnessing the domineering and authoritative Tianxing, they realized they were mistaken!

At that moment, Tianxing, in their eyes, transcended any barriers of age.

They felt as though they were not facing a teenager, but a venerable elder who had long been in a position of power. Tianxing’s forceful words echoed in their ears, instinctively making them feel fear, shaking in their boots, wanting to submit to her.

After Tianxing had finished telling them to get back to their work, they quickly turned and left, running away as if chased by ghosts.

Even Long Yang couldn’t withstand Tianxing’s pressure, and, consumed by his inner turmoil and heartache, also left.

After watching everyone leave, Tianxing slowly turned back around and looked at the curious children watching her, raising a smile again and asking, "Kids, do you want to see Sister Shen perform more magic tricks?"

The children replied loudly, "Yes!"

When she had exerted her pressure earlier, she had spared the children and directed it only towards Long Yang and the other staff members.

So, the children were not afraid of her; on the contrary, they were looking forward to what magic tricks Tianxing would perform next.

Tianxing, happy to see the children more spirited and lively than before, smiled back and asked, "Well then, would you like Sister to conjure a cake for you to eat, or toys for you to play with?"

"Sister Shen, I want cake!"

"Sister Shen, I want toys!"

Looking at the children with differing desires, Tianxing gently smiled again and said, "Then Sister will make a big cake appear first, okay?"

The children eagerly shouted back, "Okay!"

In an instant, Tianxing extended her delicate hand, and a three-tiered cream fruit cake weighing about five pounds appeared in her hand.

The children’s eyes widened in shock, their little faces filled with excitement and thrill.

The next moment, they all cheered, "Wow, Sister is so amazing!"

"Sister Shen, you’re so incredible!"

"Sister Shen, can we learn magic from you?"

"Sister Shen..."

"Sister Shen..."

Shen Tianxing listened to the array of children’s voices around her, chirping like little sparrows. She raised her hands and waved to the kids, "Children, could you quiet down for a moment, please?"

As soon as she spoke, the children indeed stopped talking and looked at her with pairs of innocent, pure eyes.

Shen Tianxing smiled at them and said, "Let’s eat some cake first. I made this cake myself, and it’s very delicious. Who wants some? Can you raise your hand?"

The children competed with each other to raise their hands first.

"Sister Shen, I want some!"

"Sister Shen, I want some too!"

"Me too, me too..."

Shen Tianxing smiled as she placed the cake on the table and magically produced a long knife and stacks of paper plates.

Shen Tianxing encouraged the children with another smile, "Is there anyone who would like to come and help sister carry the cake?"

A few children around seven or eight immediately raised their hands, "Sister Shen, I’d like to."

"Sister Shen, I can too."

Shen Tianxing beckoned to a few of them, "Alright, you guys come up and help sister! The rest of the children, please come over and line up to get your cake. Those who can’t move, don’t worry, just sit there, and in a little while sister will have a little brother or sister bring the cake over to you..."

Shen Tianxing cut the cake into small pieces and had the five children who had come up distribute them to the others.

This cake was made with ingredients from her space, far more delicious than any cake sold outside.

After tasting the first bite, some children exclaimed in amazement, "This cake is so delicious!"

Others couldn’t bother to speak as they dug in ravenously.

Shen Tianxing watched these children with tender eyes and gently smiled while saying to them, "Eat slowly, no rush. If you finish, there’s more here, and you can have another piece."

Shen Tianxing treated these children with the greatest love and patience.

She hoped to bring them warmth and love, allowing them to feel the kindness and beauty of the world, so they wouldn’t succumb to darkness and despair.

Suddenly, she remembered the song "Dedication of Love." The lyrics went: "No more deserts without hearts, no more wastelands without love, even Death turns away, flowers of happiness bloom everywhere, ah...if everyone would give a little love, the world would become a beautiful place for humanity."

This song that had once been popular in the eighties and nineties suddenly seemed to represent Shen Tianxing’s own hope and expectation for the world at this moment.

If economically feasible, if there could be more kind-hearted people like the Tang Qingyi family, willing to reach out and help these pitiful children, then they could have better lives.

Of course, this was just Shen Tianxing’s hope and dream, which was very hard to achieve in reality.

Shen Tianxing could only strive to be a paragon of virtue and charity, hoping to inspire more people to do good deeds.

Do as much as you can with the strength you have.

To be human, all you need is a clear conscience.

"Sister Shen, may I have another piece?"

A soft, tender voice interrupted Shen Tianxing’s reverie.

Bowing her head, Shen Tianxing saw a thin, petite girl standing before her.
