Chapter 2530 Fear and Reassurance
"Brother Xiao."
The boys calmed down.
"You are here for..."
The boy paused, he didn't know how to express himself.
"You know...I'm afraid of monsters..."
"so......"
I specially brought him to see Mei Nu.
Let him know that the monsters in the world are not what he thought before.
Remind him of monsters, no longer the memories that scare him.
But in front of me...
Under the gloomy sky, the white plum blossoms are so transparent that they seem to be glowing.
Even the gloomy sky became brighter.
A very beautiful and dreamy scene.
His mind calmed down.
...
Xiao Xiao smiled slightly.
No words.
The boy had already confirmed his guess.
He was suddenly very moved.
long time......
I have never met anyone who cares about him so much.
Especially since they were just strangers meeting for the first time.
He thought that he wanted to thank the two girls who thought he was a ghost before.
Thank you for their screams.
Otherwise, he would not know Brother Xiao.
Sometimes, the karma between people is so magical.
"......Thanks."
The boy expressed his sincere thanks.
He rubbed his nose.
He blinked his eyes again when he lowered his head.
He didn't want to seem too pretentious.
What to do?
Don't make the atmosphere awkward then.
...
The boy took a deep breath.
"Thank you very much."
Because of this unexpected kindness, he felt that the negative things that had accumulated in his heart for so long were reduced a lot.
He felt a little more relaxed.
The smile on his face became more natural.
he told himself.
Look, he's actually not that annoying.
There are still people willing to help him.
Or a stranger whom he had never met before.
Isn't this... amazing?
...
Xiao Xiao took the boy back to the teahouse.
...
After sitting down in the teahouse again, the boy's mood changed greatly.
Taking a deep breath, the aroma of tea leaves in his nose made his body relax even more.
He found that he somewhat liked this teahouse.
This teahouse is very different from the teahouse in his impression.
When he was a child, his grandmother took him to teahouses several times.
Noisy environment.
The table is in a mess.
People talked loudly.
The children were laughing and joking.
...
He doesn't like it very much.
This was completely different from the teahouse he imagined.
...
But this teahouse...
He later realized that it was exactly like the teahouse he had imagined.
quiet.
Elegant.
Full of ancient charm.
The gurgling ancient music flows.
The tea guests all consciously chatted in low voices.
Occasionally, you can hear the crisp sound of chess pieces being placed on the chessboard.
...
The tea here is delicious.
The snacks are also delicious.
All in all, this is a very good teahouse.
besides......
"Brother Xiao, are you from this teahouse?"
The boy asked a little unnaturally.
He is not very good at asking such questions about other people's privacy.
The person being asked is not yet uncomfortable.
He embarrassed himself first.
...
"This teahouse is owned by my family."
Xiao Xiao curled the corners of his mouth.
...
"oh oh."
The boy was stunned.
It turns out to be the young master’s family.
Then there is one more reason why he likes this teahouse.
Brother Xiao is the young owner of this teahouse.
...
There is also a super beautiful and special plum tree in the yard behind this teahouse.
...
Adding up all the reasons, the boy thought that maybe he could come to this teahouse more often in the future.
...
The tea is finished.
The snacks are also finished.
The boy is planning to say goodbye.
"Brother Xiao, thank you."
Thank you more often, now it is natural for boys to say thank you to Brother Xiao.
I won’t feel embarrassed or uncomfortable anymore.
Because Brother Xiao really helped him a lot.
He was really grateful to Brother Xiao.
Meeting Brother Xiao today, he couldn't help but wonder, is his fortune going to turn around this year?
However, even if there is no other luck, he is lucky enough just to know Brother Xiao.
He has never been a greedy person.
Probably...he has never been qualified to be greedy.
Be content and happy.
This is what he always tells himself.
...
When he reached the door, the boy paused.
The time in the teahouse was so enjoyable that he forgot about his own reality.
He stared at the teahouse door as if he wanted to burn a hole in it.
More like the other side of the door…
What kind of scourge is there?
...
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Xiao walked to the boy's side.
"Did you forget something?"
...
"Brother Xiao..."
The boy felt somewhat at ease inexplicably.
After all, Brother Xiao, who is older than him, can see monsters and is gentle and considerate, is indeed easy to make people trust him.
...
"Um?"
Xiao Xiao smiled.
...
"I......"
The boy swallowed.
"I'm a little scared."
Before he could react, the words in his heart had already blurted out.
The boy looked away awkwardly.
It's so embarrassing.
Although he has been accused by many people of being timid and cowardly, he actually doesn't admit it in his heart.
He felt that if they saw the monster he saw, they would be scared too.
They may not perform better than him.
...
To express his fear so directly... in his mind, there were only a handful of times.
And the targets are all parents or people with whom I have a lot of contact.
...
Fear?
After being stunned for a moment, Xiao Xiao came to a realization.
"Let me go out with you."
...
The boy opened his eyes wide.
He looked at Xiao Xiao.
There was obvious surprise on his face.
...
"Let's go."
Xiao Xiao opened the teahouse door.
A little faint yellow light shines in.
Before I knew it, it was almost dusk.
You can vaguely see some sunset in the distant sky.
The rich colors are stunning to people’s eyes.
...
The boy was stunned.
Then he followed Xiao Xiao out of the teahouse.
...
He looked up and around.
People are coming and going on the street.
Yan Yan smiled.
The street lights flickered on.
Together with the afterglow of the setting sun, it illuminates the increasingly dark sky.
...
Everything is normal.
There are no monsters.
The boy breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
He turned his head.
"Xiao-"
The boy blinked.
Why does Brother Xiao look so thoughtful?
What is Brother Xiao looking at?
He followed Brother Xiao's line of sight and looked over.
Passers-by walking came into his eyes.
Further away is a boutique store.
Um?
He looked at Brother Xiao doubtfully.
"Brother Xiao, what are you looking at?"
...
"nothing."
Xiao Xiao looked away.
He quirked his eyebrows.
"Is your home far from here?"
"How do you go back?"
...
"It's not very far."
The boy shook his head.
Habitually accept other people's changing of the topic.
In fact, he is not very familiar with this place.
He got into a car randomly before.
I picked a random stop and got off the bus.
I randomly picked a store and ran in.
He has done many similar things before.
I once got lost because of this and suffered a lot.
Later, as the practice became more frequent, he gradually got used to it.
He really couldn't find a way out, so he learned to ask the police uncle for help...
