Living in an apartment: Only children make choices.

From the orphanage until now, only Zhang Wei himself knows how much suffering he has endured and how much hardship he has endured.

How many days and nights of hard study must one endure to get into the prestigious Shanghai Jiao Tong University Law School?

He doesn't even qualify as a child from a poor family who achieved great success.

After all, their humble origins had a glorious past!

Zhang Wei was so poor that he wouldn't even be considered a poor person in ancient times. For him to become a college student was simply incredible.

First, blue smoke rose from the ancestral grave, then it exploded on the spot!

Zhang Wei said with a smile.

"Honestly, I never dreamed I'd be doing this well now!"

The dean said with a smile.

"Yes, he's very successful in his career."

"I've made so many wonderful friends!"

"Most importantly, Zhang Wei actually found a girlfriend."

"It's really not easy."

Zhang Wei said awkwardly.

"Dean, you didn't actually have to emphasize that last sentence."

The dean spoke first.

"What's the big deal?"

"Let me tell you, when I was a child, I made a wish during the Lunar New Year."

"Other kids wish to become teachers, scientists, or make a lot of money in the future."

"Zhang Wei's wish is to find a wife and buy a big house..."

Zhang Wei hurriedly said.

"What does this show? It shows that I've been practical since I was a child!"

"Be down-to-earth and take one step at a time!"

After chatting for a while, the dean said with a smile.

"The banquet preparations are almost complete."

After hearing what the dean said, everyone stopped talking and headed into the cafeteria.

Everyone sat around a large table that had been temporarily set up, with Li Mingzhu in the main seat.

Beside him were Zuo Linyun, the Dean on the right, and then the other people from the apartment.

Finally, there are the children living in this welfare home.

Because of the improved living standards, the children in this group are much more mentally and physically stronger than Zhang Wei's generation in the photo.

However, the challenges they face are far more difficult than those faced by Zhang Wei.

In the era of the post-80s generation, hard work could still be rewarded, but for the post-90s and post-00s generations, hard work and reward will have little to do with each other.

Hard work and perseverance are suitable for the older generation, but not for every generation.

Some of these children looked only a few years old, but they sat at the dinner table without making a fuss.

After sensing Lin Yun and the others' gazes, they would raise their heads and smile shyly.

The situation depicted in some movies and TV dramas, where a large number of children cause a lot of noise and disturbance, did not occur.

Some TV dramas always carry stereotypes, portraying children from poor families as either incredibly sensible or utterly wicked.

The ordinary people around the protagonist are either unreasonable or sarcastic.

Therefore, this led to the following explanation.

"Film and television dramas are the most feudal part of China, where appearance is allocated according to status and wealth, and morality and future are allocated based on appearance."

The dean stood up and said with a smile.

"Dear guests, and children from the welfare home."

"Today is our annual New Year's Eve party, and coincidentally, Li Mingzhu also contributed to our welfare home today."

"Today is truly a day of double happiness."

"Before the party begins, children, please stand up together and thank these kind uncles, aunts, brothers, and sisters."

The children all stood up and bowed to everyone.

"Thank you, kind person. May you have a peaceful and safe life."

After the thanks were expressed, the party officially began.

It was called a party, but it was really just sitting together and watching the children perform some shows.

Just as Lin Yun was about to chat with the system, a child of about 10 years old came to the center of the field.

"Hello everyone, my name is Zhang Guodong. Next, I will perform a song that I wrote myself."

Upon hearing that it was the original singer, Lin Wanyu immediately looked up curiously.

The child took a deep breath and then began to sing softly.

"I'm distracted in class, but I'm as restless as a monkey after class."

"They advised me to study law, but I don't want to be a labor camp inmate."

"No matter how many days of vacation I have, I feel it's too short."

"Winter break homework is due tomorrow, let's get started today!"

The next moment, the child jumped and shouted.

"I have no creative block, I have no creative block!"

"I have no creative block, I have no creative block!"

"There has never been a bottleneck, never a bottleneck!"

"..."

After the song ended, the children were sweating profusely from jumping around...

Lin Yun was completely shocked!

Surprisingly, this small orphanage actually has a little rapper.

This is truly unexpected, absolutely unexpected.

This really surprised me; it was completely unexpected!

As I write this, I realize that I could debut too!

Lin Yun turned his head and spoke.

"Dean, in a while, I'll have the rapper from the Beastmen's Troupe come over and mentor this kid."

"This kid jumps so high when he sings, he has a lot of potential in rap!"

The dean was surprised that watching a program could bring Zhao Hao such an unexpected joy, and immediately smiled broadly as he spoke.

"Mr. Lin, you've gone to a lot of trouble."

"You truly care about the child from the bottom of your heart."

Lin Yun said with a smile.

"These are all small things, just a small favor."

"Let the child continue performing. Let me see if there are any more talented people."

The dean hurriedly said.

"Quickly, kids from the next show, come on stage!"

The next moment, several children came to the stage together and said in unison.

"Next, we will perform a choral song for you."

"Slash the Japanese devils' heads with the broadsword!"

Zhang Wei hurriedly spoke up.

"Kids, wait a minute!"

The dean hurriedly said.

"Singing this kind of song during the Lunar New Year is a bit too gory, how about we change it to something else?"

Zhang Wei waved his hand and said.

"It's nothing, Dean. I just wanted to video chat with Guan Gu so he could enjoy the performance together."

"Unforgettable tonight, unforgettable tonight."

"No matter where you are, at the ends of the earth..."

After the standard closing music, the charity gala came to an end.

Before eating dumplings, the children presented Li Mingzhu with a banner they had prepared beforehand.

Of course, the others present also got a turn, but there was a specific order in which they were given a turn.

Then came the time to enjoy the dumplings.

The standard celery-filled dumplings symbolize that everyone will be hardworking and prosperous tomorrow.

Generally speaking, at this time, unless someone particularly dislikes celery, they will eat two, hoping for a good omen.

After the meal, the dean invited everyone to stay overnight, but Lin Yun politely declined.

After all, it's fine to have dinner, but it's better to keep the countdown at home.
