Chapter 3176 Shivering
"Big brother……"

The boy pursed his lips.

The anxiety was palpable.

He was talking too much.

What's the point of explaining the name at this time?
What he wanted to know more was... did this white-haired girl... really know Ya Ya?

He has been with Ya Ya for such a long time...

He had no idea that Ya Ya had such a friend...

……

He suddenly realized...

In this situation……

He actually had a feeling of sudden enlightenment.

that time……

He has only Yaya as a friend.

He is the one who needs Yaya's company more.

But in the end...it was also him who abandoned Ya Ya.

The boy dug his nails into his palms.

A slight pain penetrated into the nerves.

But it was nothing compared to the suffocating feeling he felt at this moment.

……

He understood why he did what he did.

If I could do it again...

The boy was stunned.

He found……

Even if I could do it all over again...

He didn't know if he had the courage to make another choice...

This realization was like a bucket of cold water poured over his emotions.

He shuddered all over.

……

"Cold?"

Noticing the boy's shivering, Xiao Xiao asked.

Although the temperature is rising now.

sunny.

But there was still a slight chill in the air.

The lingering chill of spring has not completely dissipated.

……

Xiao Xiao looked at the boy's clothes.

Wear a jacket over a hoodie.

It doesn't look thin.

……

"what?"

The boy was stunned.

"I'm not cold."

He didn't understand why the older brother asked this?

……

"is it?"

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

It seemed that he had misunderstood the boy's shivering just now.

It's not because of the cold.

Or maybe it's because of the cold.

But it’s not the coldness of the outside world.

But... in my heart.

why?
Xiao Xiao looked at the boy who suddenly became listless.

He was clearly very excited just a moment ago.

Why did I suddenly feel depressed at this time?

……

"There is news about Crow Crow..."

Xiao Xiao asked directly, "Are you unhappy?"

……

"how come?"

the boy blurted out.

How could he be unhappy?

After searching for so long, he finally mentioned Ya Ya's name to someone again... He finally found some information about Ya Ya...

He was overjoyed, okay?
……

"You don't look happy."

Xiao Xiao spoke frankly.

……

The boy touched his face subconsciously.

Is it so... obvious?

He wanted to pull up the corners of his mouth to smile.

But after realizing the bitterness in his smile, he bent down the corners of his mouth as if giving up.

His shoulders slumped as well.

It seems...it's indeed obvious.

……

"Don't you want to know about Crow's news?"

Xiao Xiao tilted his head slightly.

Ling Feng and Xiao Xiao tilted their heads slightly almost in sync.

Xiao Xiao was the curious boy's answer.

Ling Feng didn't understand why Lord Xiao Xiao stopped asking questions halfway through?
……

"how is this possible?"

the boy blurted out again.

Then, he pursed his lips tightly.

He knew that his answer was inconsistent with his behavior.

"I……"

The boy lowered his head.

His conflicted expression was reflected in the teacup.

"...I have known Ya Ya since we were very young..."

The boy suddenly began to tell a story. …

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

He said nothing.

He was always a good listener.

……

“When I was a kid, I was isolated in class…”

Although it was already in the past, the boy still frowned when he recalled that gray memory.

"My father left home one day and never came back..."

The boy tried to speak as calmly as possible.

For him, the emotions he should have about this matter have indeed been diluted in the long river of time.

"Unknown reason."

The boy twitched his lips.

"Someone said... my father committed a crime and was arrested..."

"Someone said...my father had an affair..."

"Anyway...rumors were rife at the time."

The boy stroked the side of the teacup with his fingers.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the tea.

"Everyone was pointing fingers at me and my mom..."

"At that time, I would always run into the neighbors, grandparents, uncles and aunts I knew, and they would all shake their heads at me with a look of sympathy on their faces."

"Say I'm a poor kid..."

"Remind me to listen to my mother..."

"Otherwise...if my mother doesn't want me, I will become an orphan."

The corners of the boy's mouth reflected in the teacup twitched.

He was still young at that time and had no idea why the familiar people around him suddenly made him feel uneasy and strange?
He was in a panic.

He pulled his mother's clothes and asked where his father had gone.

He cried for his daddy.

That was the first time he saw his mother so broken down and hysterical.

The sharp sound hit his brain.

The only thing he heard clearly was...

Dad doesn't want them anymore.

……

why?
He doesn't understand.

Why doesn't Dad want them anymore?

But he didn't dare ask.

He was frightened by his mother's appearance.

Mom even forgot to cook that day.

He is so hungry.

But I didn’t dare tell my mother.

He rummaged around the house for some random snacks and ate them hastily, which he considered as dinner.

Lying in bed at night, he wrapped himself tightly in a quilt.

I fell asleep in fear and confusion.

……

Fortunately, my mother returned to normal the next day.

Made him breakfast.

As always, remind him not to leave anything behind.

Send him to the door of his house.

After one week of school, he was able to go to school by himself without his mother sending him there.

He behaved exceptionally well.

He likes this kind of mother.

He didn't want his mother to become like yesterday.

Mom was horrible yesterday.

……

He went out in a happy mood.

Because mom has changed back.

But soon, his happy mood was overshadowed.

Because the classmates in the class have changed.

Just like those grandparents, uncles and aunts.

It just made the look in his eyes more naked.

They gathered in groups of three or five, whispering to each other.

And he was the one who was excluded.

He is not an extrovert by nature.

Because of the inexplicable concerns in his heart, he couldn't even take the initiative to ask what they were talking about.

He could only freeze in his position.

Pretend to flip through the textbook in front of you.

In fact, he didn't see anything.

Pretend you heard nothing.

In fact, he really only heard a few words.

He just felt a buzzing in his ears.

Very noisy.

It's very noisy.

Just like his messy heart.

……

He had never felt that the school bell sounded so beautiful...

……

His life changed.

From the day he never saw his father again.

At that time, he actually didn't quite understand why such a change occurred?

……

His mother later told him that his father was traveling.

Traveled to far away places.

He tried to hold back, but still couldn't help asking his mother: When will Dad come back?
Since we are traveling, we will always come back, right?

He was very optimistic.

I even felt a little bit of joy in my heart.
