170 One Night at the Hotel 4
"?" Alyssa blinked twice in confusion, "You don't know where your hometown is? What do you mean?"
However, Su Cheng did not answer Alyssa's question, but continued to look up at the stars with a somewhat sad face, saying:
"More than three years ago, when I was 14 years old, I left my hometown and came to the Britannia Empire."
"The Britannia Empire and my hometown are simply two different worlds. Nowhere in culture, language, clothing, etc. is the same."
"Only this part of the sky in the Britannia Empire is the same as my hometown. It has a fiery sun and soft white clouds during the day, and a bright moon and bright stars at night."
"When I miss my hometown, I will raise my head and look at the sky. Unknowingly, I have developed the habit of looking up at the sky now."
"When I first came to the Britannia Empire, it was quite difficult..."
After saying that, Su Cheng showed a wry smile.
Alyssa, who was lying on the bedside like Su Cheng, also looked at Su Cheng's side face seriously and listened carefully to Su Cheng's story.
"When I first came to the Britannia Empire, I was so scared and confused...all my familiar relatives and friends were gone, and I was surrounded by people I didn't know...I didn't know who to talk to, and I didn't know who to talk to.
I don’t know who to turn to for help…”
"At that time, I often even thought about seeking short-term life... I thought that if I went to seek short-term life, I might be able to return to my hometown and return to my familiar relatives and friends..."
"But in the most desperate period of my life, a little guy broke into my world."
Speaking of this, the bitter smile on Su Cheng's face slowly disappeared and was replaced by a smile full of tenderness.
"My sister came. Just when I was desperate and just wanted to commit suicide, my sister and I met."
"Your sister..." After Alyssa muttered the word a few times, she put on an expression of sudden realization, "Ah! Your sister is the one with brown hair, green eyes, and short hair that only reaches her chin.
That little girl?"
"Well, that's right, that's her. Her name is Alan."
Su Cheng suddenly put on a somewhat showy tone and said to Alyssa:
"How is it? My sister is cute, isn't she?"
"Well, she's quite cute. She seems like a very energetic little girl."
"In my eyes, she is the cutest person in the world, and she is also the person I love most." The tenderness on Su Cheng's face and eyes became more and more intense, "But in how many years, even if I get married in the future,
Even though I have lost my wife, my sister will always be the person I love and cherish the most."
"The acquaintance and encounter with my sister finally made my originally black world become a bit colorful."
"My sister and I supported and helped each other. Slowly, slowly, she and I walked out of the shadows in each other's hearts, gradually became cheerful, and no longer thought about short-sightedness."
"Then I met Carol again, and then I met Deng Jiaer a few months ago. Ah, Deng Jiaer is the little girl with black hair and golden eyes."
"As I get to know more and more people and have more and more connections with the people around me, I slowly no longer feel that it is a bad thing to leave my hometown and come to the Britannia Empire.
Already."
"When I first came to the Britannia Empire, I was only thinking about returning to my hometown. I felt that I must have been unlucky enough to come here."
"But now, I'm starting to feel"
Su Cheng paused, then turned his head, looked directly into Alyssa's eyes, and then showed a very bright smile.
"It's great to be able to come here and get to know Alan, Kailuo Er, Deng Jiaer, Mr. Jacob, Mr. Iser, and to get to know you, Alyssa."
After listening to Su Cheng's words, Alyssa was slightly stunned, and then she showed a gentle smile and said:
"Doesn't it feel great to get to know me?"
"Yeah." Su Cheng nodded seriously, "After all, we are good friends who can play feeding games."
"Hey! Didn't I tell you to forget about this?!"
"Ha ha ha ha."
After Su Cheng laughed heartily a few times, he turned back and continued to look up at the stars outside the window.
Seeing Su Cheng who completely ignored what she just said, Alyssa snorted with her nose angrily, then like Su Cheng, turned her head and looked up at the stars outside the window.
The two of them just looked at the stars in the sky quietly together.
After watching for who knows how long, Su Cheng took the lead to break the silence and said:
"Alyssa, can you tell us more about the stars in the sky? I'm quite interested and want to continue listening."
"Ah? It's not impossible, but my head is still dizzy due to my drunkenness. Maybe I'll get tired after talking for a while."
"It doesn't matter, just talk as much as you can."
"...Okay, then I'll continue talking. Listen carefully! I'll explain the stars to you with great effort. If I find you deserting or falling asleep, I'll beat you!"
After saying that, Alyssa cleared her throat and began to point at the stars in the sky seriously while explaining the name of each star and the origin of their names.
Although Su Cheng just talked a lot about him, his hometown, and what happened after he came to the Britannia Empire.
But there were still a lot of important things that Su Cheng didn't tell Alyssa.
For example: Where is his hometown?
Why can't he go back to his hometown?
How did he come to the Britannian Empire?
Su Cheng did not reveal a single word of the answers to such important questions to Alyssa.
Alyssa is actually very curious about the answers to these questions.
However, out of curiosity, Alyssa did not intend to continue asking Su Cheng these questions tonight.
Alyssa will not ask Su Cheng for the answers to these questions for a long time to come.
Because she felt that Su Cheng was in a very low mood now.
Ever since he started talking about his hometown, Su Cheng's mood has dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Although Su Cheng still had a smile on his face, Alyssa could feel that Su Cheng was still in a very low mood.
Alyssa vaguely felt that the topic of her hometown would make Su Cheng depressed.
Therefore, although Alyssa was extremely curious now, she could only suppress her curiosity.
After all, Alyssa couldn't do this kind of thing of exposing other people's scars and forcing others to talk about topics they didn't like to satisfy her own curiosity.
…
Just as Alyssa was carefully explaining every star in the sky for an unknown amount of time, she suddenly felt her hanging right hand being grabbed by something.
Alyssa was startled when she felt something grabbed her right hand.
Then, he hurriedly turned his head and looked down his right arm.
It was Su Cheng who was holding Alyssa's hand tightly.
I don’t know when just now, Su Cheng stopped lying on the bedside to look at the stars.
It's just that Alyssa was talking too enthusiastically just now, so she didn't notice that Su Cheng had lay back on the bed again.
Su Cheng, who lay back on the bed, lay on his side, facing the direction of Alyssa.
Su Cheng's left hand, just now, quietly held Alyssa's right hand.
Looking at Su Cheng, who was supposed to be sleeping, but suddenly held her hand, Alyssa panicked for a moment.
Judging from Su Cheng's appearance, Su Cheng should be fast asleep now.
Why did Su Cheng, who was fast asleep, suddenly hold my hand?!
Just when Alyssa was panicking and thinking about what to do now, whether to wake up Su Cheng or pull her hand back
"Dad...Mom..."
Suddenly there was a murmur.
Then, Alyssa felt Su Cheng's big hand holding her right hand tightening.
After hearing this murmur, Alyssa couldn't help but her expression froze.
Alyssa turned her head and looked at Su Cheng beside her.
After shifting her gaze to Su Cheng beside her, Alyssa clearly saw a sudden flash of light in the corner of Su Cheng's eyes who was sleeping soundly.
