Chapter 54 Listen to my story
Shen Xi paused for a moment, then quickly picked up the thin letter, looked away, and swiftly put it back in the box before closing it.
Little Qi'an leaned against Shen Xi's leg, reaching out her tiny hand to poke at the box lid, her face flushed with impatience. "Open, open, open..."
The little guy said "open" several times in a soft voice.
Shen Xi looked on and asked, "Why do you want Auntie to open this box?"
Little Qi'an's eyes were still on the box. "Mommy, um... um... cry."
He had to take several breaths before he could finally speak, and you could tell the child was speaking very urgently and with great difficulty.
Shen Xi lowered her eyes and put the box back in its original place, then covered the book that had been on top of it with the box.
She held the little boy's shoulders, half-squatting down to look him in the eye. "This is Mommy's secret, it's a wound she suffered. If our Qi'an got a cut on his arm, would he cry too?"
She gently pinched the little guy's nose.
Little Qi'an frowned her delicate eyebrows and raised her little fist to her mouth, as if she was seriously thinking and struggling with something.
Just as Shen Xi was about to say something more to him,
His clear black and white eyes looked at her, his little face puffed out, and he reached out to touch Shen Xi's hand, blowing on it.
"Phew, it doesn't hurt."
Shen Xi looked at the hand being held by the child, feeling both amused and saddened.
The child didn't understand what she was saying and thought the paper would hurt her, so she was just concerned about whether the paper was in pain.
She said, "Maybe my mother didn't want anyone to see her crying, so it's a secret, a secret between me and Qi'an."
Shen Xi extended her little finger, her eyes slightly red as she looked at the well-behaved and sensible child in front of her.
The little guy probably knew that pinky swearing meant making a promise; he nodded his little head, his curly hair bobbing back and forth.
The two fingers, one big and one small, stamped the document.
Finally, Shen Xi took a tissue and wiped the tears off the child's face, then carried the child out.
She closed the door.
It's possible that boys are naturally interested in things like mechanical and armor models.
Shen Xi took out two precise, streamlined armor models from the cloth bag she was carrying. The models still gleamed with a cold, black metallic luster when she took them out.
Little Qi'an stared intently at the thing in her hand with her round eyes.
"Auntie~"
Shen Xi smiled. When this little guy wanted to please her, he would call her Auntie. When he wasn't doing anything else, he would just call her Xi Xi, Xi Xi.
Hmph, not at all.
"This is a gift from a young man named Jiang Du to you as a token of our friendship."
This time, Shen Xi left differently than last time. This time, she made a point of saying goodbye to Jiang Du face to face and mentioned that she was going back to visit her friends.
Jiang Du took two seconds to react and said that when he went to her house before, he had run into her neighbor's child in the stairwell.
Shen Xi said it was her friend's child.
When Jiang Du found out, he ran upstairs and handed her the exquisite and expensive mecha model as a gift.
Although Shen Xi didn't understand what kind of greeting gift it was.
Jiang Du seemed very happy, telling him that he made the model himself, and handed it to her.
Shen Xi accepted it.
Little Qi'an looked at the kitchen with her bright, watery eyes, then at the mecha model in Shen Xi's hand, and whispered...
"Brother Watari, thank you."
The child, I don't know where he learned it from, is as cute as the lucky dolls in New Year paintings, and even bowed with both hands in front of the mecha.
Xiao Qi'an was studying the mecha. The mecha toy wasn't sharp, and the child was very sensible. He sat on the playmat, his small body turned away from Shen Xi, and played happily.
Shen Xi: Really... Don't worry about my feelings, just be happy, okay?
Goodbye, everyone in the live stream!
Su Su's live stream ended, and she untied her apron.
Shen Xi went over to her and helped her hang up her apron. "Your time is pretty short today, aren't you?"
Su Su shook her head, "You rarely come back, I don't want to keep you waiting."
"Su Su is still the best to me." Shen Xi moved closer.
"I'm going to take a shower first, wait for me."
"It's alright, go ahead."
Su Su always feels that the smell of cooking oil on her body is unpleasant after each live broadcast, so she will take a shower after the broadcast ends.
Shen Xi thought it was normal, but when her gaze fell on the little boy on the playmat, she recalled the sentence on the letter she had accidentally seen, and cursed the scumbag in her heart countless times.
Damn man, he can't control his lust but still insists on harming women.
Xiao Qi'an was raised very well, but Su Su did not fare so well.
Su Su always wore long-sleeved clothes in front of her. Once, Shen Xi accidentally saw the hideous scars on Su Su's arm, which were burns.
She was so saddened by what she saw that she couldn't speak.
Shen Xi didn't want to think about the difficulties involved; perhaps they were too difficult.
She arranged the dishes, washed the bowls, and placed them on the table.
"Aren't you coming back?" Su Su appeared out at some point, dressed in a black long-sleeved knit dress, looking very elegant.
"How could that be? I will come back, but maybe less this year. I need to work to pay off my debts this year, but things will be better next year."
Shen Xi could tell that Su Su was a little reluctant to part with her. In fact, she could feel it. When you are alone for a long time, and then someone comes into your life and then leaves, you will feel lost and helpless, and even fall into a deeper loneliness.
"If you can't bear to part with me, how about I take you to the capital? I'll rent a place there, and we can live together."
Shen Xi set out the food and joked with Su Su.
To everyone's surprise, the usually quiet and gentle Su Su suddenly raised her voice and refused her vehemently, "No, no... I can't go there!"
She seemed to be gripped by panic, and her eyes became timid.
Shen Xi quickly put down what she was doing and rushed over to hug her. "I misspoke. We're not going there."
Shen Xi's eyes were expressionless; she understood that the man was probably in the capital.
Hearing her mother's voice, Xiao Qi'an quickly got up and stumbled over.
He clung to his mother's leg, eagerly tilting his head back to try and see her clearly.
It took Su Su a long time to calm herself down. She took a tissue to wipe her tears, hugged Xiao Qi'an, and looked at Shen Xi with a sad expression on her face.
"I'm sorry, I don't like that place."
Shen Xi smiled and said, "What's so great about the capital? Didn't I move here from there? I was just joking."
Su Su tied up her loose hair, and her tone became lighter, but Shen Xi felt even heavier.
"Let's wait until tomorrow, then I'll tell you my story."
Shen Xi said, "Don't say anything that makes you sad."
Revealing past wounds only makes the injured person feel the embarrassment and helplessness of being hurt again, which is a secondary injury.
Su Su said, "I've been waiting for someone to hear this story for a long time, anyone is fine with me."
You are better.
If you're willing to listen, I'd like to say something.
