Chapter 3869: Sprained Foot

On this day, after a long time of clear skies, it began to rain.

The rain is not heavy.

Just a light drizzle.

The children were wearing raincoats or holding umbrellas, and ran past passers-by with smiles.

The laughter was mixed with the sound of rain and footsteps, blurry and clear.

The bright rain boots shine even more brightly in the dim rainy day.

Even the splashing rain seemed to reflect a shimmering light.



Xiao Xiao was walking in the rain curtain holding a black umbrella.

The air that was a little cooler due to the rain made me feel very comfortable.

Xiao Xiao slightly curved the corners of his mouth.



"Mother."

The child's clear voice seemed far away.

"Why doesn't that grandma take shelter from the rain?"



"Yes."

A woman's voice sounded.

It's a little blurrier than a child's voice.

"Mom doesn't know either."

"ah."

"The car is here."

"Let's hurry up."



"But grandma-"

"Grandma should have her own reasons."

The woman interrupted the child.

"Run faster."

"The car has stopped."

"If we don't get in this car, you'll be late."



"Why!?"

"Mom, let's hurry up!"

The child yelled.

What followed was the sound of messy footsteps.

Patapapap~

Mixed with the sound of rain, it made people feel a little panicked.



Xiao Xiao's footsteps paused slightly.

He changed direction.

Walk towards the direction where the previous sound came from.

After walking a few steps, he was somewhat surprised to find that the surrounding environment was familiar.

here……

Isn't it the small square that he, Zhang Bo and the others visited a few days ago?

The old man in the child's mouth...can't be...



Xiao Xiao walked towards the place where he met the old man in his memory.

Soon, he saw...

Just like the last time we met, the old man was sitting on the bench.

But it was sunny that time.

And now, it's raining.

The rain is pouring.

Although it's not big, it can still get people wet.

However, the old man did not hold an umbrella.



The old man is wearing a hat.

Different from the hat with a ribbon bow last time, this time the old man's hat is a black beret.

The hanging silver ornaments reflected light in the dark and gloomy rainy day.



Might as well be the hat from last time.

At least it can keep out some rain.



Xiao Xiao quickly walked to the old man's side.



After a few seconds, the old lady noticed something was wrong and raised her head.

She thought the rain had stopped.

But what she saw was different from how she felt.

She looked up doubtfully.

Then she froze.

She turned her head.

After a moment of confusion and surprise, the old lady showed a grateful smile.

"Thank you, young man."

It turns out that the rain has not stopped.

But this kind-hearted young man used his umbrella to protect her from the rain.



Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

The meaning of this sentence is not wrong.

But……

Why does he have a feeling...

"Old man."

Xiao Xiao smiled.

Thinking of the old man's "complaint" to him last time, "Old man, do you still remember me?" Xiao Xiao said, "We meet again."



The old lady was stunned again.

She narrowed her eyes slightly.

On rainy days the light is dim.

The black umbrella made her vision even darker.

In addition, this young man was tall, so she sat and looked up at him, but she couldn't actually see the other person's face clearly.

Just based on the first impression, this is a stranger.

But what the other party said just now clearly showed that her feeling was wrong.

This is not the first time they have met.



Is it someone she knows?

The old lady found that squinting could not help her see the other person more clearly, so she opened her eyes wide again.

who is it?

She still didn't find any familiar feeling in the other person.



In desperation, the old lady hesitated and said, "Who are you?"

"Excuse me."

The old lady apologized immediately.

However, if you don’t know it, you don’t know it.

There is no way to fake this.

"I don't remember...we've met before..."



Xiao Xiao was a little surprised.

Some of the guesses turned out to be true.

He felt that something was wrong with the way the old lady saw him and what she said.

Whether it's the old lady's demeanor or what she said...

There was no trace of familiarity with him.

They seemed like strangers meeting for the first time.



"We met a few days ago."

Xiao Xiao said in a relaxed tone.

"At that time, my friend and I were helping a child who was separated from his mother to find his mother."

"I came here to ask you for news..."

"Have you remembered?"

Xiao Xiao did not elaborate on what happened that day.

He just gave a rough description.

If the old man still doesn't remember, he will give up.

After all, their last meeting was not so meaningful that it could not be forgotten...

It is normal for the elderly to have poor memories.



The old lady frowned.

Saw it a few days ago...

It's only been a few days, she shouldn't forget.



The old lady did not doubt what the other party said.

In her opinion, there was nothing alarming about the other party's words.

She is not suspicious either.

Moreover, this young man doesn't look like someone with evil intentions.

She doesn't judge people by their appearance.

She believes that love comes from the heart.

After living for most of her life, she thinks she has some ability in judging people.



It is a good thing to help a lost child find its mother

The old lady had a hint of appreciation for this kind-hearted young man.

"You are a good guy."



The familiar compliment made Xiao Xiao curl his lips.

"Thanks."

"You said the same thing about me and my friends last time."



"Yeah?"

The old lady raised her hand and pressed her temple.

She tilted her head slightly.

"……Feel sorry."

"I have no memory at all."



"It doesn't matter."

Xiao Xiao shook his head.

"Old man."

Xiao Xiao changed the topic.

"I'll take you home."

"Or, you said a place to take shelter from the rain."

Considering that the old lady might not want to go home yet, Xiao Xiao said again.

"I'll take you there."



The old lady was stunned again.

Then, she laughed.

"oops."

"You are such a good person."

"Thank you."

"Actually, it's not that I don't want to take shelter from the rain..."

The old lady looked at the rain outside her umbrella.

The rain has become a little heavier now.

But when it first started raining, it wasn't very heavy.

There is time for people to take shelter from the rain.



The old man looked down at his right foot.

"My foot is sprained."

Just when she noticed it was raining and subconsciously wanted to stand up -

Halfway through standing, she fell back onto the chair because of the pain in her feet.

The old man moved his right foot slightly.

The pain that shot up her nerves instantly made her expression darken.

"I just thought about forgetting it."

"It's not raining very much anyway."



"Even if it doesn't rain..."

Xiao Xiao shook his head in disapproval.

"You can't sit here all the time if your foot is injured."

"What are you going to do when the rain stops?"



The old man was asked.
