Chapter 629: Chapter 629 The Way of Heaven Goes in Cycles, Whom Does the Vast Heaven Spare?

In the afternoon, Lu Yichen cleaned up the other rooms as well, though Luo Qiao had initially thought to have him make do for a night in the room Stone had lived in.

However, after tidying up and having dinner, Lu Yichen still went out to find an inn and rented a room. His original home had been leased out when he and Stone had left.

Of course, Luo Qiao understood what Lu Yichen meant; he feared causing her unnecessary trouble.

The next day, Lu Yichen accompanied Luo Qiao on a trip back to Qingshan Village, where they ran into Gao Baozhen, the Secretary’s daughter, who mentioned Zhao Jianing’s situation, saying she had been working at the factory for over ten days.

Seeing Lu Yichen and Luo Qiao return together, Auntie Gao asked Luo Qiao in a low voice, "How did you two come back together?"

Luo Qiao smiled and said, "Let me introduce him properly, this is my boyfriend, Lu Yichen."

Auntie Gao clapped her hands, "I really didn’t expect the two of you to end up together."

Turning to Lu Yichen, she said, "Yichen, you have to take good care of Luo Qiao. She’s been through so much hardship. Your relationship must be fated by the heavens, especially when she fainted at your doorstep back then."

With that, she laughed, thinking more and more that it was meant to be, and the more she looked at them, the better matched they seemed.

They had lunch at the Gao Family home, and when leaving, they happened to run into Stone’s grandmother. Luo Qiao didn’t speak, merely nodded at her as a greeting.

Unexpectedly, Old Lady Sun stopped in her tracks, looked at Lu Yichen, and asked, "How is Stone doing?"

Hearing the question, Lu Yichen also stopped, "He’s doing well, grown quite a bit taller, and his academic performance is solid. He’s now a middle school student."

Old Lady Sun, with a complicated expression, turned around and left.

Luo Qiao and Lu Yichen didn’t linger either. After greeting the nearby villagers, they headed out of the village. They needed to catch a ride back to Ji City, and Lu Yichen had a bus to Capital City later that evening.

When the villagers saw Old Lady Sun walk away, someone commented, "After all, he is her own great-grandson; it would be a lie to say she doesn’t worry about him at all."

"Stone is a lucky kid. I heard he has now gone to Capital City with Lu Yi."

Days passed, one after another, and soon it was the nineteenth of the first lunar month, the day Ji City First Middle School started its spring term.

Luo Qiao, carrying a backpack she had made herself, arrived at school ahead of schedule and first discussed her desire to sponsor underprivileged students with Teacher Ge.

Teacher Ge hadn’t expected such impactful news from Luo Qiao upon the start of school and thought it was her family’s intention. After confirming repeatedly, he took Luo Qiao to see the principal.

Principal Li Wenqing, upon hearing the news, was also moved and said gratefully, "Luo Qiao, on behalf of the school and the poor students who will be sponsored, I thank you."

Luo Qiao spoke up, "Principal Li, I ask you to keep this matter confidential. I don’t want a big fuss, as it might affect my studies."

Li Wenqing nodded, "Okay, understood."

Not long after school started, during a long break, the school announced that a kind-hearted person was sponsoring underprivileged students and asked for applications. The school would conduct home visits for verification, and those verified would become the recipients of the aid.

In the end, there were a total of sixty-three students sponsored, all from extremely poor family backgrounds, and some who had been planning to drop out were brought back to school. The sponsorship moved many people and changed the destinies of many.

Everyone knew a benefactor was supporting them, but they were not aware that person was amongst them.

Since Luo Qiao returned to school, Xiao Ya was undoubtedly the happiest, constantly chattering away about what had happened at school during her absence.

In just a few days, Luo Qiao was well-informed about all the significant and trivial things that had occurred at school over the past year.

As the days slipped away, life continued amidst a routine of problem-solving.

One day after school, Luo Qiao unexpectedly ran into her foster father, Luo Tianming, who had aged considerably, his temples streaked with grey, indicating that life had not treated him kindly.

Luo Tianming hadn’t expected to encounter Luo Qiao either. He stood still for a moment, silently observing her, and in the end, lacking the face to say anything, he slightly nodded and walked away.

Luo Qiao thought of the saying, "What goes around comes around; nobody is spared by the heavens."
