Chapter 918 Leaving
Xiao Xiao suddenly thought of Feng Zigui.
If it was Fengzi ghost, I'm afraid the things that happened later wouldn't have happened.
"He can't see me."
"Why do you want to force it?"
“It will create unnecessary cause and effect.”
The white eyes, similar to those of the Li family, were pure, calm and indifferent.
As expected, there are hundreds of different kinds of people, and there are also hundreds of different kinds of monsters.
It’s hard to say which approach is better, it’s just each monster’s own choice.
"Well, it's getting late, so I should leave now."
Xiao Xiao watched as Li jumped off the table and walked towards the door with his head held high.
However, the overly quiet posture inexplicably revealed a sense of loneliness.
He smiled politely at the woman, "Auntie, goodbye."
……
"Hey?"
The woman was a little confused and a little anxious, "Um, Xiao Chi, my illness..."
"Mr. Xiao?!"
……
"Xiao Chi is leaving."
Xiao Xiao glanced at the Li who had already walked to the door, and then he looked at the anxious and uneasy woman, "Your body will recover slowly without its influence."
"But your body has been damaged too much in recent days, so make sure you replenish your nutrition."
……
"Yeah, okay, okay."
The woman almost cried for joy.
The strange disease that had troubled her for so long was finally going to be cured, how could she not be happy?
Then, she realized the first thing Xiao Xiao said, "Xiao Chi...are you leaving?"
She felt relieved, yet a little disappointed.
As her memories of the past had become blurred and she now knew that Xiao Chi was a monster, she couldn't bring herself to say the words to keep him.
Her illness made her unable to suppress her feeling of rejection towards Xiao Chi.
She knows this is not good.
Because, that’s Xiao Chi.
Even though she had forgotten many details of their past interactions, the only thing she was sure of was that Xiao Chi had once been her best friend.
After she left without saying goodbye that year, Xiao Chi came back to her again.
She didn't know how Xiao Chi found her, but she knew it must not have been easy.
However, after knowing that Xiao Chi was a monster, she thought that maybe it was not as difficult as she thought.
After all, Xiao Chi is a legendary monster.
But even so, this kindness still moved her.
……
But-
Although she was moved, she just couldn't convince herself to open her heart to Xiao Chi again.
She thought, maybe that was why she couldn't see Xiao Chi anymore.
She couldn't help feeling a little lost.
……
But then, she felt somewhat fortunate about it.
Because, because she can't see, she can be so "heartless".
After all, the Xiao Chi in her memory seemed to be separated by a layer of gauze, lacking a sense of reality.
Now she can't see Xiao Chi.
She also couldn't see Xiao Chi's reaction to her actions or words.
Without the direct visual impact, she unconsciously became less cautious and tense.
Some emotions became more exposed.
……
She is just an ordinary person, and more than a decade of life hardships have made her lose all her past naivety.
She is no longer the girl who was willing to transform from a good girl to a warrior for Xiao Chi.
Perhaps it was because there was a more important existence that she was still willing to transform into a warrior, but not for Xiao Chi.
Xiao Chi is like a time bomb.
She was not sure whether she would accidentally anger the other party and be punished by him.
or-
What if Ruirui gets into trouble next time?
She couldn't take that risk.
Therefore, it is best for Xiaochi to leave.
Moreover, she pulled the corner of her mouth, "Yeah, I can't see it either."
She couldn't see Xiaochi anymore.
So, what’s the point of Xiao Chi staying?
She and Xiao Chi have no more contact with each other.
……
Xiao Xiao did not comment on this. He smiled politely again, "Auntie, goodbye."
He turned to open the door, but the sound he heard made him pause as he gripped the door handle.
He looked down, with a hint of amusement in his eyes.
……
The monster that had been quiet before was scratching the door with a stern face and a serious look.
There was an almost stubborn look on his face.
……
"Click~"
Xiao Xiao paused for a moment, and only pushed open the door when he saw that Li had retracted his claws.
A certain monster walked out of the room again with his head held high.
It was as if the beast scratching the door that he had seen before was just an illusion.
……
"Mr. Xiao, I'm really sorry to bother you today."
"Whether it's about Ruirui or Xiaochi and me, thank you very much."
"I was not prepared this time, so I am sorry for my delay. Mr. Xiao, please forgive me."
"Next time, if Mr. Xiao has time, I would like to invite Mr. Xiao to my home for a simple meal to formally thank Mr. Xiao."
……
"Auntie, you are so polite."
"I just happened to be there."
Xiao Xiao waved his hand and smiled faintly, "I'm going back to school soon."
"Besides, your body needs to rest, so I won't bother you."
……
The woman wanted to say something else, her lips opened and closed several times, but she finally smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, thank you."
"Please be careful on your way back."
"Rui Rui, say goodbye to Mr. Xiao."
"What are you standing there for, kid?"
……
"Goodbye, Mr. Xiao."
The boy also called out following his mother's name.
"See you."
Xiao Xiao walked towards the stairs.
He could feel the boy's gaze as he lay on the handrail of the stairs, looking at him through the gap between the floors.
I followed him out of the apartment building.
It was not until he turned and walked into a corner that the boy's gaze disappeared.
……
Xiao Xiao stopped in a remote corner.
The monster in front seemed unaware of anything and continued to move forward step by step.
After just a few seconds, the monster seemed to realize something was wrong and slowed down its pace. Finally, it stopped and looked back.
Sure enough, the human who had been following it was standing under a shelf not far away, watching it.
Didn't catch up.
Seeing it looking over, the human smiled at it.
Li was startled.
It didn't come closer, nor did it go away.
……
"What are your plans for the future?"
Xiao Xiao did not bring up the topic of Han's mother.
In his opinion, it was a matter between Li and Han's mother.
That is their story.
Even if the ending of the story is not so perfect, as a bystander, it is better for him not to make rash comments.
……
“Beep, beep, beep, beep~”
Human, what do you care about me?
The monster raised his chin, looking arrogant and irritated.
……
It is difficult to explain what it feels like right now.
After waiting for so many years, what I got was the other party's defense and rejection.
For a moment, ice and snow spread in front of its eyes, and under the thick layer of ice, a blue flame was burning quietly.
However, it was fleeting.
ps: Thank you GTkevin for the reward (*︶*)!
