Chapter 354 The Strong Child

It's really pitiful to see a child who doesn't even know he is crying.

Xiao Xiao frowned in distress. He was not good at coaxing children.

Still such a heartbroken child, crying quietly but powerfully.

Tears kept welling up from the child's eyes, and he had no time to wipe them away one by one.

After thinking about it, Xiao Xiao held the child in his arms and patted the child's back gently.

Actually, it’s good to cry.

Crying is a child's right.

Why do we need to learn to be patient like adults?

……

The child's body stiffened suddenly when he was suddenly held in the arms.

Even the tears stopped for a moment.

Then, the child reached out and tightly grabbed the clothes on Xiao Xiao's chest, and finally cried out.

"Wow~"

……

"Xiaoyuan!"

Wen Shaoyang in the room suddenly screamed.

"What's wrong, Ayang?"

Chi Xiuchuan was a little frightened and asked, "What happened to Xiaoyuan?"

"I seemed to hear Xiaoyuan crying?"

Wen Shaoyang's tone was somewhat uncertain, and his expression was filled with confusion, anxiety, and worry.

He suddenly reached out and grabbed the curtain, as if he wanted to pull it open, but he seemed to have thought of something. His lips were pursed tightly, but his hand did not move further. He just held the curtain tightly, with bulging blue veins on the back of his hand.

"Ayang, are you sure?"

"I didn't hear anything."

Wen Shaoyang's action was so sudden that Chi Xiuchuan didn't have time to stop him. His heart was beating in his throat. Later, when he saw that Wen Shaoyang didn't really open the curtains, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

He doesn’t know what Master Xiao is doing in there?
However, anyone who is disturbed for no reason will always be unhappy. What if it affects Master Xiao's business, wouldn't that be even worse?

He didn't want his friend's momentary recklessness to offend Master Xiao and affect Xiaoyuan's recovery.

……

"I heard it."

Wen Shaoyang said it with certainty, but the next second he couldn't help but show some hesitation, "It should be."

Wen Shaoyang was very anxious because he was not sure whether his brother was crying.

His expression was like that of a trapped beast, fierce and confused.

"Ayang, don't worry."

"It's okay. Master Xiao is with Xiao Yuan."

Chi Xiuchuan comforted his friend in a gentle voice.

Wen Shaoyang seemed not to have heard his words. He scratched his hair in annoyance and whispered to himself, "Xiaoyuan doesn't cry that often."

"Yes, Xiaoyuan hasn't cried during this period."

"Except for the time when he was beaten by his father."

Wen Shaoyang's eyes flickered, and a hint of heartache gradually appeared on his face.

Of course he understood his brother.

Xiaoyuan is a strong-willed child. He thinks crying is something girls do. As a real man, he would not do such a shameful thing.

So, even if the child was very wronged, his eyes were red, and he kept them open tightly, refusing to shed a single tear.

So, after Wen's father beat him, the tears shed by the child made them all panic. Wen's mother's eyes turned red instantly, and she rarely yelled at Wen's father.

Because the child was crying so hard that it was heartbreaking.

He is not like other children, his crying is so loud that it gives people a headache.

He cried very quietly, and even while crying, he still pursed his lips tightly, stared at them with bulging eyes, refusing to show weakness at all.

They never knew that the child's temper could be so stubborn.

……

He knew that when Wen's father saw Xiaoyuan like this, he immediately regretted it, but he couldn't let go of his parental pride.

As a result, the child is not only stubborn, but also holds a grudge.

To this day, I still haven't completely forgiven Father Wen.

Therefore, they were restrained and did not dare to force Xiaoyuan too much.

Afraid of making the child cry again.

A child with this kind of temperament must have suffered a lot of injustice to cry.

They are reluctant.

...But now, he actually heard a child crying? !

After Wen Shaoyang calmed down, although he felt extremely distressed, he knew that this was a good thing.

When such a young child is sad, wronged or unhappy, he should cry loudly.

Why should I hold it in? Why should I hold it in?

……

"Ayang."

Chi Xiuchuan cried out in worry.

Wen Shaoyang's expression made him frown.

"...I'm fine."

Wen Shaoyang wiped his face fiercely, "It's better to cry, it's better to cry."

He murmured a few words in a low voice, then turned to look at Chi Xiuchuan, "Ah Chuan, I now believe that maybe Master Xiao can really help Xiao Yuan."

At least Master Xiao made Xiaoyuan cry, and for that alone he was very grateful.

Chi Xiuchuan didn't ask why. After a moment of stunned expression, he smiled faintly, "Master Xiao won't let us down."

……

Xiao Xiao held the child in his arms, said nothing, and just patted his back gently.

Let him cry.

My eyes couldn't help but drift outside the balcony, where the snow was gradually getting heavier.

He carefully moved his position to block the falling snow for the child.

……

The child cried for half an hour.

Xiao Xiao was truly amazed.

He knew that children would cry, but he didn't expect them to cry so much.

But, isn't this child too repressed?
This was the first time he had met such a strong-willed child.

Is it true that children from wealthy families also think more than children from ordinary families?

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but feel emotional when he thought of the kids near his home who were eating, drinking and playing foolishly.

……

"Hiccup~hiccup~"

The child started to hiccup and gasp for breath because of crying.

Xiao Xiao changed from patting to caressing to help the child calm down.

……

Seeing the child who had finally cried enough and lowered his head, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but find it a little funny. Is he shy?

He reached out and gently patted the child's head, "Xiaoyuan, it's okay. Children should cry when they want to cry, otherwise they won't be able to cry as they please when they grow up. Thank you."

Moreover, when a child cries, there will be many adults to care for him and comfort him carefully.

However, when adults cry, they often have to bear it alone in silence.

So, what's the point of crying?

……

Uh, the child raised his head, his red eyes full of confusion, is that so?

Xiao Xiao gently wiped the tears from the child's cheeks, otherwise the child would suffer if he froze in such cold weather.

"Yes."

Xiao Xiao's hands had a faint temperature, not too hot, just the right amount of warmth.

The child couldn't help but rub Xiao Xiao's fingers.

The child's kitten-like movements made Xiao Xiao smile.

……

The child suddenly seemed to have thought of something and turned his head hastily, "Xiao Yao, I'm fine."

"..."

"I'm not crying!"

"I, I was just crying physiological tears!"

"Yes, I don't know what happened to my eyes, tears just started flowing."

"..."

……

The smile on Xiao Xiao's lips faded, then reappeared.

"Xiao Yuan, can I meet Xiao Yao?"

He looked in the direction the child was facing, and it seemed that there really was a monster called Xiaoyao there.
