Chapter 230: Painful Heart, Gentle and Shy Monster
"Xiao Xiao, you are really amazing!"
Winnie looked at Xiao Xiao with sparkling eyes, a look of reverence on her face.
“It’s really amazing!”
"Fortunately, you caught it. At that time, when I realized that I had not grabbed the child's hand, I was completely confused and my mind went blank."
"terrible."
"If something happens to the child, I will definitely not be able to forgive myself."
As Winnie spoke, moisture appeared in her eyes, and her moist eyes seemed to be about to shed tears in the next second.
Seeing this, Gu Youxuan and Mu Yan hugged Winnie from both sides and patted her shoulders comfortingly.
Winnie lowered her head sharply, but her shoulders were shaking a little.
She was really scared. Thinking that maybe a young life would disappear from her hands, her whole body trembled uncontrollably.
The weight of life is too heavy for her to bear.
Her fingers were bent convulsively, as if the cool and moist feeling from that time still remained on her fingertips.
"Tick-tat, ti-tat."
Tears seeped out from between her fingers covering her eyes and fell to the ground.
…
"Nini, don't cry."
"Nini, you did a great job."
"Winnie, you are amazing."
…
Gu Youxuan and others started to comfort the obviously frightened girl. Xiao Xiao spontaneously took a few steps back and moved out of the way for them.
However, the warm words of comfort from others made Winnie increasingly unable to control her emotions.
She lowered her head and cried so hard that she couldn't help herself.
…
"Hey, third child, what are you talking about?"
Zhang Bo bumped Xiao Xiao's arm with his elbow.
"Yes, third child, you have the most say."
After all, Winnie's "mistake" was made up for by Xiao Xiao. If Xiao Xiao hadn't reacted quickly, Winnie would have been a step slower.
"Third brother."
It was the first time that Zhao Luzheng saw a girl crying at such a close distance and was a little at a loss.
…
"knew."
Even though I'm not very good at comforting people and I don't really like comforting people, is there a cause and effect relationship? Xiao Xiao doesn't know.
However, he slowly took a step forward. Gu Youxuan, Mu Yan, Miao Weiwei, Shan Fangze, and Zhou Zhou beside Wen Ni looked up at Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao didn't pay attention to their gazes, he just looked at Winnie who was sobbing with her head down.
"Winnie, you did your best."
Although sometimes there is no use in doing your best, after all, the fact is that if Xiao Xiao hadn't been here today, if it hadn't been for Zhu Qian, this child might have been splattered with blood on the spot.
However, there is no if.
Xiao Xiao lowered his eyelids slightly. Now that the result is good, don't think too much about it.
The corners of his mouth were slightly curved. Xiao Xiao watched Winnie wipe her face randomly a few times, then raised her head. Even though her eyes were red and a bit embarrassed, there was a different look on her face, and there was something between her eyebrows.
Somewhat firm.
"I won't make the same mistake again."
Winnie clasped her hands hanging by her sides. She was a student at the Public Security University. Her performance today was really disappointing.
She knew that she was nervous at that time, and she was right to be cautious, but the situation at that time was running against time. She knew clearly that the child could not hold on for long, but she still allowed herself to slow down her movements slightly because of some secret fears in her heart. No, say
Slowing down is not accurate, she just didn't use all her strength to climb up as fast as possible.
Because of her own cowardice, she failed to save the lives she could have saved!
It's really ugly.
She laughed at herself fiercely in her heart.
There is a burning pain in the corner of my eye.
Maybe it was because she was too rough in wiping her tears before, and the skin on the corners of her eyes was a little broken.
...
"Um."
"Nini, this is your first time facing this kind of situation, so it is inevitable that you will behave abnormally."
"Winnie..."
…
Seeing Winnie cheer up, Gu Youxuan and others also laughed and cheered for Winnie.
Xiao Xiao raised his head and looked towards the beacon tower.
The bullocks sat upright, their long tails wrapped around their bodies.
The interlaced fangs shone with a cold and eerie light in the sunlight.
The blood was flowing in the one eye, and the gaze was cold.
Noticing Xiao Xiao's gaze, Zhu Jian looked up at the red sun and turned his eyes to Xiao Xiao.
His eyes were like swords and his face was ferocious.
He really doesn't look like a good monster.
However, he is really a... gentle monster.
Xiao Xiao faced the light and gently raised the corners of his mouth at Zhu Jian.
"Thanks."
Xiao Xiao said silently.
"Third brother, let's go."
Zhang Bo shouted.
"Lao San, what are you looking at?"
Zhuge Yun grabbed Xiao Xiao's shoulders and followed Xiao Xiao's gaze to see the beacon tower from before.
"Oh, okay, third child, don't look back on your great achievements, let's go."
Xiao Xiao didn't explain anything, and finally looked up at the beasts on the top of the beacon tower.
The eyeball in the monster's single eye moved around a bit.
He looked at the sky and the earth, but didn't meet Xiao Xiao's eyes.
The curvature of the corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth could not help but deepen a bit, and there was a smile in his eyes.
Zhu Jian turns out to be a shy monster.
"goodbye."
Xiao Xiao opened his mouth slightly and said silently.
Then he didn't look at Zhu Jian's expression anymore, but followed the pace of the large army and left.
…
After getting off Jinshanling and settling the lunch problem, Xiao Xiao and his party headed back home.
Shan Fangze and Zhou Zhou first sent Xiao Xiao and others back to the alley entrance where they were first picked up.
However, after Gu Youxuan also got off the bus and said she wanted to stay with her cousin for a while, the other girls and two boys also stayed.
So, in the end, the group of people sat in Xiao's teahouse again.
Because there were so many people, they chose a private room on the second floor this time.
There is only one private room left, and that is Xue Shier.
"Xiao Xiao, the name of the private room in your teahouse is very nice."
"Yes, Snow Lion is very cute."
"Thanks."
"A branch of spring, the beginning of summer, autumn wind Ci, and snow lion are all Ci brand names, right?"
"Yes."
…
Several girls were asking questions around Xiao Xiao, and even Zhang Bo was left aside by his cousin.
Zhang Bo and Zhao Luzheng looked at each other speechlessly and shrugged helplessly.
But also, when they came to Xiao's Tea House for the first time, they also felt like they were shocked.
It's not that it's magnificent, but it has a rare light and condensed aura.
Many of the teahouses are old objects, and the heritage accumulated over time is as intoxicating as sandalwood.
There is no excessive hustle and bustle, only the scent of tea, the crisp sound of falling, and occasional soft conversations, creating a leisurely but calm atmosphere.
…
Zhuge Yun naturally nuzzled beside Xiao Xiao, enjoying the feeling of being surrounded by girls, and helped Xiao Xiao answer some questions from time to time.
Xiao Xiao didn't mind this, but was happy and relaxed.
And Zhuge Yun's funny words always cause girls to chuckle.
