Chapter 355: Can't See and Apology
The child was stunned for a moment, and looked into Xiao Xiao's eyes, which were full of seriousness, without a trace of perfunctoriness.
The kid laughed, "Yeah!"
……
"Xiao Yao, this is Brother Xiao Xiao, my brother's good friend."
"Brother Xiao Xiao, this is Xiao Yao, my best friend."
The child introduced the two parties in a serious manner, his face full of excitement.
……
"Hello, little demon."
Xiao Xiao greeted him naturally, as if the little demon the child was talking about was real and standing right in front of him.
"..."
"Xiao Yao is very happy to meet you, Brother Xiao Xiao."
The child looked left and right, his brows showing a rare cheerfulness and clarity in recent times. He couldn't help but speak to Xiao Xiao with an excited look and obvious joy in his voice.
"really?"
Xiao Xiao smiled gently at the child, then turned to Xiao Yao, a faint smile spreading in his eyes, "Well, I'm glad to meet you too."
……
The child was very happy to see his best friend getting along well with this big brother whom he loved very much.
Moreover, when Brother Xiao Xiao talked to Xiao Yao, he was not as stiff as his parents and brother, although he didn't know why they were like that.
It’s just that Brother Xiao Xiao like this makes him very happy.
Therefore, the child couldn't help but feel closer to Brother Xiao Xiao.
……
"Xiaoyuan, you introduced your good friend to me, and I will introduce my good friend to you, okay?"
Xiao Xiao still maintained the squatting posture, supporting his chin with one hand, and spoke to the child with a smile.
"Okay."
The child subconsciously agreed.
"Hey." The child suddenly remembered something and called out softly, "Your friend..."
Brother Xiao Xiao, do you mean to introduce his friends to him next time?
“It’s right here.”
Xiao Xiao turned his face slightly and motioned the child to look at his left shoulder.
"here?"
The child looked at Brother Xiao Xiao's shoulder in confusion, then looked into Brother Xiao Xiao's eyes, which were full of seriousness without a trace of joking.
"But...there's obviously nothing."
The child's voice became softer and softer, and his two hands were entangled together nervously.
She seemed to be feeling uneasy because she didn't see the friend that Brother Xiao Xiao mentioned.
"what?"
Even though the child's voice was very soft later, almost in his mouth, Xiao Xiao heard it clearly.
However, he pretended not to hear clearly and asked back, with some confusion on his face.
"...No, it's nothing."
The level gaze allowed the child to clearly see all the emotions in Brother Xiao Xiao's eyes. He looked for it desperately, but still couldn't find any teasing or joking meaning in it.
However, he didn't want to disappoint Brother Xiao Xiao.
So, facing Brother Xiao Xiao's doubts, the child retreated a little. Even though he didn't see anything, he still didn't say anything.
He was inexplicably frightened.
……
Xiao Xiao didn't seem to notice the panic and confusion behind the child's stiff smile. There was a warm smile on his slightly tilted face.
He reached out and touched Feifei's soft fur, "This is Feifei."
Feifei half-closed her eyes, looking comfortable and relaxed.
……
Unfortunately, the child who received Xiao Xiao's gaze did not feel relieved at all. He looked at where Xiao Xiao's hand was, with a dull look on his face.
There was clearly nothing there, but Brother Xiao Xiao's hand seemed to be really on something.
The five fingers are stretched out, without any stiffness or unnaturalness.
……
"…Phiphi?"
The child tried to open his eyes wide and leaned forward a little.
His dark eyes rolled around in panic and his face looked like he was about to cry.
He really didn't see anything. ...
"Feifei, this is Xiaoyuan."
"Coffee~"
Feifei glanced at the child opposite him casually, knowing that the child couldn't see him.
However, it did whatever Xiao Xiao asked it to do.
It barked lazily a few times.
Sure enough, the child had a confused look on his face, and his expression became increasingly flustered.
Feifei couldn't help but sneer.
……
"Hello, Philip."
The child said stumblingly.
He tried hard to picture what Philip looked like, but to no avail.
"What's wrong, Brother Xiao Xiao?"
The child suddenly caught a glimpse of Xiao Xiao's strange gaze and couldn't help but ask in confusion.
Does Brother Xiao Xiao know that he didn’t actually see Feifei at all?
"Xiaoyuan."
Xiao Xiao reached out and gently pressed the child's head, and with a little force, he turned the child's head to his feet, "Fifi is at your feet."
"Hey?!"
If Xiao Xiao's hand hadn't been on his head, the child would have almost jumped up.
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked at his feet, but still saw nothing.
He glanced at Xiao Xiao and moved to the side carefully with his feet.
Feel nothing.
The child continued to expand the scope without giving up. Later, he did not bother to conceal his actions. Instead, he squatted down and groped everywhere with his hands.
All he felt was air. Even with gloves on, the child felt a chill seeping into his fingertips and spreading all the way to his heart.
Xiao Xiao watched the child's actions quietly for a while without making any sound to disturb him.
It was not until the child had searched the entire balcony and was determined to start searching again that Xiao Xiao asked softly, "Xiao Yuan, what are you doing?"
"..."
The child was startled. For some reason, his eyes, which had been crying before, began to turn red again, and there was a faint gleam of water.
After all, they are children and cannot really pretend to be indifferent and lie, especially in front of the person they like.
"Brother Xiao Xiao, I can't see Feifei."
The child's voice was low, and already had a hint of crying in it.
"I don't see Philip."
"I tried really hard, but I just couldn't find Feifei."
The child choked and spoke intermittently, and the more he spoke, the more aggrieved he seemed.
……
"can not see?"
Xiao Xiao stretched out his hand, and Feifei jumped lightly onto his arm and ran all the way to his shoulder.
The little monster tilted his head and rubbed Xiao Xiao's cheek.
There was a smile flickering in Xiao Xiao's eyes.
"Ah."
The child lowered his head, looking uneasy as if he had done something wrong.
Occasionally, he raised his face, revealing a pitiful expression.
“But it’s here.”
Xiao Xiao did not comfort the child, but spoke in confusion.
The child opened his eyes wide again, but tears were about to come out and he still saw nothing.
"……sorry."
Silence spread for a long time, and the child apologized with red eyes.
"Why apologize?"
Xiao Xiao looked at the soft hair on the child's head and did not end the topic.
“…I didn’t see Feifei.”
The child grumbled unwillingly and confusedly.
