The morning sunlight streamed through the cracks between the tall buildings, casting its rays into Mo Yanyu's office. This technology company building in the bustling city was synonymous with busyness and efficiency. Mo Yanyu sat at his desk, his face bearing a natural sternness, with an air of unapproachability in his countenance. His fingers tapped on the keyboard, his gaze focused, as if the entire world had nothing to do with him.
Just as he buried himself in a pile of documents and reports, his phone rang. The caller ID showed it was his assistant, Sophia. Mo Yanyu lightly pressed the answer button and asked in a calm tone, "What's the matter?"
"Mr. Mo, there is a charity event this afternoon to raise funds for the orphanage. You promised to attend," Sophia's voice came through the phone, clear and efficient.
Mo Yanyu was silent for a moment, then replied, "I understand, I will be there on time."
The afternoon sun sprinkled on the car window of Mo Yanyu as he slowly drove into the location of the charity event. Various flowers were arranged in the courtyard, creating an elegant and comfortable atmosphere. As the famous CEO of a technology company in the city, Mo Yanyu naturally attracted some attention upon his arrival. His appearance was aloof and mysterious, but his eyes revealed deep contemplation.
The enthusiastic welcome from the event host broke the silence of the venue. They walked through the corridor and arrived at the orphanage. Although the facilities of the orphanage were simple, every corner exuded warmth and love. The laughter and joy of the children echoed in every corner, showing that life here was full of happiness.
When Mo Yanyu stepped into the courtyard, his attention was drawn to a little girl. She was playing happily with the other children, her shiny black short hair gently swaying with her movements, and her big eyes sparkling with curiosity and liveliness. Her smile was pure and radiant, like a fresh beam of light in the city.
"That's Lin Xingchen, one of the children in our orphanage," the host noticed Mo Yanyu's gaze and introduced with a smile.
Mo Yanyu approached, his gaze falling on the little girl named Lin Xingchen. It seemed like Xingchen could feel his gaze, as she turned her head and curiously looked at him with her clear and innocent eyes. Her eyes were filled with endless curiosity, as if asking, "Who are you?"
At that moment, a little boy accidentally fell down, and Xingchen immediately ran over, gently touching the boy's knee and asking with concern, "Are you okay? Does it hurt?" Her voice was tender and full of compassion, her little face filled with worry. The boy's tears quickly stopped, and Xingchen gently patted his back with her small hand, then helped him stand up, and the two children happily went to play together.
Mo Yanyu looked at this scene, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, a side of him that few people could see. Star's kindness and innocence, as well as her naive actions, stirred a ripple in Mo Yanyu's heart. He suddenly realized that in this small courtyard, there was warmth and friendship that he had never felt before.
Star turned her head, her gaze met Mo Yanyu's once again. Her eyes sparkled with a kind of pure curiosity, silently questioning everything in the world. A ripple stirred in Mo Yanyu's heart, and he suddenly felt that the afternoon sunlight was warmer than ever before.
At that moment, Mo Yanyu felt a strange and unusual emotion. It was a feeling he had never experienced in any business meeting or technological innovation. It was a pure, unconditional emotional touch.
In the following hours, Mo Yanyu did not leave the orphanage. He watched the stars and other children play, and occasionally they would surround him, asking him to join in. He watched the stars solve puzzles and saw her wield a paintbrush on paper. Every time she solved a problem or completed a painting, her satisfied smile would bring a warmth to Mo Yanyu's heart.
After the event, Mo Yanyu was lost in thought the whole way. He couldn't forget the smile of the stars and her curiosity about the world. He began to realize that something was missing in his life, something simple and pure, like happiness and love.
Back at home, Mo Yanyu sat on the sofa, holding a spherical smart home controller, habitually adjusting the indoor lighting and music. His gaze seemed to penetrate everything indoors, contemplating some possibility.
A few days later, Mo Yanyu came to the orphanage again. This time he was not just a visitor, but someone who intended to adopt a child. He sat down with the director to discuss the adoption process.
"I want to adopt Lin Xingchen," Mo Yanyu said calmly but firmly.
The dean looked at him, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. "Mr. Mo, do you know what this means? This is a major decision."
Mo Yanyu nodded. "I know. This is not only a commitment to her, but also to myself."
The process was not simple, but Mo Yanyu always maintained his rational and rigorous attitude. He listened to the dean explaining various legal procedures and answered a series of questions. His expression was calm, but his eyes vaguely revealed a hint of determination.
Meanwhile, in the courtyard, Xingxing was still playing, seemingly unaware of everything. Her world was still so simple, so pure. But soon, her world would undergo earth-shattering changes.
When all the procedures were in progress, Mo Yanyu quietly looked at the stars, his heart filled with complex emotions. This was a new beginning, for him and for that little life.
On the day Mo Yanyu left the orphanage, he didn't take the star with him because the adoption process was not yet complete.
During the adoption process, Mo Yanyu had more opportunities to spend time with Xingxing. One afternoon, he sat in the small garden of the orphanage, and Xingxing ran over, curiously looking at the science book in his hand.
"What is this?" Xingxing asked in her tender voice.
Mo Yanyu smiled and tried to explain in simple language, "This is a book about stars and space. You know, the universe is very big, and there are many stars with names just like yours."
The eyes of the star lit up. "Really? Are there stars like me in the sky too?"
"Of course," Mo Yanyu replied, feeling the joy of communicating with the little girl.
"I want to see!" Xingxing exclaimed excitedly, jumping up.
Mo Yanyu He opened the book and pointed to some pictures for Xingxing to see. He found that, although he usually spoke concisely, he could say so much in front of Xingxing.
Xingxing listened with relish, occasionally making surprised little sounds. "Wow, so beautiful! I also want to go to space and take a look."
Mo Yanyu smiled. "Maybe one day, you really can go."
Mo Yanyu and Xingxing sat on a long bench, surrounded by neat green grass and colorful flowers. Mo Yanyu wore a simple suit, with a calm and serious demeanor. In contrast to his seriousness, Xingxing appeared lively and innocent, her eyes sparkling with endless curiosity about the world.
Mo Yanyu is talking about the mysteries of space. His voice is calm and rhythmic, as if giving a precise scientific lecture. He describes galaxies, black holes, and the vastness of the universe, with each word filled with reason and depth.
Xingxing is fascinated, her eyes shining brightly, and she occasionally interjects with questions: "What is inside a black hole? Is it another world?" Her questions are always full of imagination, leaving Mo Yanyu surprised.
Mo Yanyu smiled slightly and replied, "Black holes are a mystery, and we are still exploring them. But your idea is very creative." His voice remained calm, but there was a flash of admiration in his eyes.
As the conversation deepened, Mo Yanyu discovered that Star not only had a strong curiosity but also possessed rich imagination and creativity. She transformed his scientific explanations into her own stories, viewing the world from her unique perspective.
During their conversation, a group of children were playing nearby. One little girl accidentally fell down and started crying. Xingxing immediately stood up and went to comfort the boy. Mo Yanyu quietly watched, his eyes showing a subtle and gentle concern.
Xingxing gently patted the girl's back and comforted her, saying, "It's okay, just get up after falling down." Her voice was tender yet encouraging, and the little girl quickly stopped crying and returned to playing.
Mo Yanyu Looking at this scene, I felt a bit moved. He usually isn't good at expressing emotions, but at this moment, he felt deeply touched by the kindness and optimism of the star. A rare smile appeared on his face, and at this moment, beneath his cold exterior, it seemed to melt a little.
"You are really special, Star," Mo Yanyu said with a hint of seriousness in his tone.
The stars turned around and showed him a bright and innocent smile: "Everyone is special, right? Just like what Uncle said to the stars, every star has its own light."
The adoption process is finally coming to an end. On the last visit to the orphanage, Mo Yanyu brought some toys and books that the star likes to the yard. When the star saw these gifts, excitement shone in his eyes.
"Are these all for me?" Star asked excitedly.
"Yes, they are all for you," Mo Yanyu replied.
Star happily jumped up, hugging her toys, her eyes shining with pure joy. Mo Yanyu looked at her, feeling a different kind of warmth in his heart.
Mo Yanyu sat quietly, watching Star play. His heart was filled with both anticipation and a little unease, but more than anything, a sense of unprecedented fulfillment. He was about to embark on a whole new journey, an exploration of life together with Star.
