753 I Don’t Care
Basically, no one in the orphanage would be willing to adopt children after they were ten years old. The older they were, the stronger their independence. Their personalities and emotional attachments had basically been set in stone. The later nurturing would not change them much.
The current Xue Fanxin looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old to outsiders, while Ye Jiushang was about twenty years old.
At this age, she could live independently and did not need to be adopted anymore. Therefore, when the person in the office proposed to adopt Xue Fanxin and Ye Jiushang, not only were the two of them shocked, but even the director of Sunshine Orphanage was very shocked.
“Old Master He, the two of them are a little old and can already live independently, especially Ye Jiu. He’s an adult and doesn’t need to be adopted anymore. Of course, if they’re willing, I have no objections.”
“Then you…”
Before Mr. He could ask, Xue Fanxin rejected him bluntly. “We’re unwilling. Sir, if you really want to adopt a child, then find a suitable one. We’re not suitable. Although I’m still underage, I’m almost legal, and my boyfriend is already an adult, so we’re really not suitable.”
At this moment, a young man in a checkered suit standing beside Mr. He said, “It’s your honor that our Old Master He is willing to adopt you. Don’t be ungrateful.”
Old Master He also said, “Little girl, do you know how many people wish to become my child? Now, as long as you nod your head, you can immediately become a rich missy and a high-class socialite.”
“I don’t care,” Xue Fanxin said indifferently. She really did not care at all.
Be it in the Nanling Empire, the Heavenly Saint Empire, or the Ye Dynasty, she was either a rich missy or a noble Ninth Imperial Consort. Therefore, she really did not care about becoming some rich missy, because she was a rich missy to begin with.
Xue Fanxin’s repeated rejections made Mr. He very displeased. His expression turned extremely ugly as he said coldly, “Do you really not know what’s good for you?”
“We just don’t know what’s good for us. So what? Anyone with eyes can tell that you don’t really want to adopt a child, but you have another motive. I won’t expose you. I just want to give you some face. Don’t be shameless.”
“Little girl, how dare you speak to Old Master He like this?” The man beside Mr. He reprimanded again.
“I only rejected his adoption. Is that wrong?”
“You…”
When the director of the Sunshine Orphanage saw that the situation was not right, she quickly came out to mediate. “Old Master He, since this child is unwilling, why don’t you find someone else? After all, she’s already old. It’s indeed not suitable for her to be adopted.”
Old Master He ignored the director of the orphanage, but his anger was not so great anymore. He calmed down a little and looked at Ye Jiushang. He asked with a little kindness, “If she’s unwilling, I wonder if you’re willing? If you’re willing to join my He family and be my grandson, you’ll be the heir to the He Corporation in the future. I don’t mean anything else. I just want to find an heir. From the first time I saw you, I felt that you were an outstanding child and worth nurturing.”
Would the dignified Lord of the Nine Cloud Palace, the Ninth Imperial Uncle of the Ye Dynasty, be someone’s grandson?
Xue Fanxin felt that the so-called Old Master He was a little ridiculous, but she had to admit that his taste was really good. Ah Jiu was indeed very outstanding.
Unfortunately, they were not interested in the so-called He Corporation.
