"Little guy, how long are you going to follow me?"
In the crowded street, a woman wearing a bamboo hat was standing there holding the hand of a little girl, looking behind her with a smile.
The little girl who was holding her hand also turned her head and raised her eyes following the woman's gaze, but the expression on her pretty face did not change at all from beginning to end.
"If you don't go home obediently, your family will be worried."
The woman's voice was very gentle, so gentle that she didn't look like a super strong person who had just destroyed a force.
"I don't have a family anymore, so I don't have a home."
Bai Ye stood there and said with a smile.
Even though what he said was sad, he still had a smile on his face.
The woman was slightly startled when she heard this, and looked at the neatly dressed little boy in front of her.
This child is probably only over three years old. At such a young age, is he alone?
More than three years old. If you calculate carefully, it seems that Chen'er is about to reach this age.
Thinking of this, the woman's eyes showed a bit of sadness under her bamboo hat. If she could, she really didn't want to leave the father and son. She also wanted to accompany her son to grow up.
At this time, the little girl next to her seemed to feel something. She tightened her hand on the woman, trying to give her some comfort.
The woman recovered from her sadness, turned around and smiled at the little girl: "Aunt Jing is fine."
Immediately, she turned her head and looked at the silent Bai Ye in front of her.
The little guy looked at her with his big watery eyes. This cute sight might make a woman feel compassion.
Not to mention her, an incompetent mother who is already a mother.
"Then just follow me first."
The woman who called herself "Aunt Jing" smiled and said, anyway, she already has a seven-year-old baby by her side, and having another one doesn't seem to be a big problem.
"okay."
After hearing the woman's answer, Bai Ye trotted over and came to the other side of the woman.
He looked at the little girl next to the woman curiously, but did not open his mouth to ask directly.
As if she saw the curiosity in the boy's eyes, Aunt Jing let go of the little girl's hand, and then touched the top of her head.
"This is Lingxi. She is three or four years older than you. You should be called sister."
"Oh." Bai Ye nodded and came to the girl. Because the girl was taller than him, he could only see the girl's face by raising his head.
"Hello, Sister Lingxi, my name is Bai Ye, Bai during the day and Ye at night."
My mother said that exchanging names is the first step to becoming friends. Now that I know Sister Lingxi’s name, I should also take the initiative to report my name.
When the girl named Lingxi heard his words, she did not lower her head in response. Instead, she grabbed Aunt Jing's sleeves and hid behind Aunt Jing.
"She is more afraid of strangers, but she will get better in the future."
Aunt Jing said with a smile.
"Then what's Aunt Jing's name?"
Xiao Baiye asked innocently, he also wanted to be friends with Aunt Jing.
Hearing this question, Aunt Jing was slightly startled, but she didn't expect him to ask this question.
After about a few seconds, Aunt Jing stroked Xiao Baiye's special white hair.
"My name is Qing Yan Jing, Qing Shui's Qing, Yan's Yan, An Jing's Jing, just call me Aunt Jing."
Bai Ye nodded obediently. Although he didn't like anyone touching his head, if it was this Aunt Jing who could overlap with the figure of his mother in his memory...
Then there is no other way.
"Are you sure you want to follow this person?"
Just when Qing Yanjing was walking on the road with the two little guys, Bingyu in Bai Ye finally spoke.
"Um."
Bai Ye squinted his eyes and glanced at Qing Yanjing's cheek. It was a very soft and pretty face. Apart from being pretty, there was nothing similar about this face to his mother, but it was strange that when he was by her side, Bai Ye can feel very at ease.
Only his mother had given him this sense of security.
The moment Qing Yanjing pushed the door open, the first thing that appeared in Bai Ye's mind was the figure of her mother.
This kind of temperament is very similar to my mother's appearance before she was alive, so this person must not be a bad person.
Bingyu was silent for a moment after hearing his answer.
"This person is very powerful. If she takes action, I can't protect you even for a second now."
"Aunt Jing is so amazing."
Bai Ye's eyes sparkled.
Born in the realm of sin, he certainly knew how powerful Bing Yu was.
Although he didn't have an intuitive impression of Bingyu's strength, he had also seen Bingyu shattering mountain domes and crashing through ice peaks.
It was because of this that Bai Ye was afraid of Bingyu's threat to freeze him to death.
Because he knew that this big bird was very powerful, very powerful.
But it seems that Aunt Jing is more powerful now.
"I'm talking about who I am now."
Bingyu pondered for a moment and thought it would be better to explain to this guy.
Otherwise, I feel that my high-ranking image will collapse in this kid's heart.
"What's the difference?"
Bai Ye asked curiously.
"Of course there is a difference."
In order not to let Bai Ye look down upon him, Bingyu spoke more rarely.
"If it were me before Nirvana, like the woman next to you...well, I could at least save your life in her hands."
That's an understatement, but it doesn't stop Bai Ye from feeling more and more powerful that Aunt Jing is.
"Nirvana? Bingyu, are you a phoenix?"
He had heard his mother tell the story of the phoenix before. It was said that only the phoenix clan could talk about nirvana.
But facing his question, Bingyu became quiet and did not answer.
"What's wrong? Xiaoye."
At this time, Qing Yanjing had already brought Lingxi and Bai Ye to a nearby inn. The originally lively child did not say a word along the way, which made Qing Yanjing wonder if Bai Ye was not feeling well.
"It's okay, Aunt Jing."
Bai Ye waved her hands and replied.
I was so focused on talking to Bingyu just now that I forgot that there were other people around me now.
"If you have something to say, you must speak it out. Keeping it in your heart will never solve it."
Qing Yanjing said softly.
Looking at Bai Ye at this age, Qing Yanjing always can't help but think of her parents and children in another continent. She doesn't know if that frivolous man can take good care of him and teach him to be a reliable man.
She didn't expect the little guy named "Mu Chen" to achieve great achievements. She only wanted them and their son to spend this life in peace.
Bai Ye looked at the lost Qing Yanjing strangely. She was obviously asking him a question. Why did he think Aunt Jing's problem was bigger?
He glanced at another person on the table, a girl named Lingxi who was also looking at Aunt Jing worriedly.
She gently grabbed Qing Yanjing's sleeve with her little hands, and pulled it gently as usual.
Because of Lingxi's actions, Qing Yanjing woke up from her thoughts in an instant, and immediately noticed the worry of the two little guys next to her.
So she stretched out her two hands and pressed them on their heads.
"Aunt Jing is fine, let's eat first."
Bai Ye nodded obediently.
Although he didn't quite understand what was on Aunt Jing's heart, he could clearly feel that it was a feeling of longing and sadness.
He has never learned this emotion, so he doesn't quite understand it.
But there should be only one thing he can do now.
Bai Ye stretched out his little hand and placed it on Qing Yanjing's white jade hand. Compared with Qing Yanjing's palm, Bai Ye's palm was completely smaller.
Qing Yanjing was slightly startled and looked at Bai Ye without knowing why.
"Aunt Jing, be happy."
What does this feel like?
Looking at the little guy's big, shiny eyes, Qing Yanjing felt that her heart was hit hard at a certain moment.
At the same time, Qing Yanjing laughed to herself. She was considered a leader of her generation, so why was she being comforted by a three-year-old child now.
Has becoming a mother made you feel more alive?
She breathed out softly: "Aunt Jing knows."
Bai Ye nodded fiercely, with a bright smile on his face.
On the other side, Lingxi, who was sitting next to Qing Yanjing, looked at what Bai Ye was doing and grabbed Qing Yanjing's sleeve harder and harder.
Although she was very happy that this guy made Aunt Jing happy, she didn't know why, but watching the interaction between the two people, she always felt a little unhappy.
It always feels like something dear is about to be taken away.
After the appraisal, she hated this guy, very hateful.
After lunch, Qing Yanjing seemed to have no more thoughts of rushing. She opened a guest room in this inn and took Bai Ye and Lingxi to live in it.
The room is large enough to accommodate an adult and two children.
Lingxi and Bai Ye were still very young, so Qing Yanjing didn't worry about letting them out of her sight.
The most important thing is that Bai Ye has just met the two people, and Qing Yanjing also wants to take this opportunity to let the two children get to know each other well.
She wasn't worried about the lively Bai Ye, but the key was the shy Lingxi. The little girl was not so easy to get in touch with. It had been three months since she rescued Lingxi, and the little girl had barely learned how to communicate with her.
Maybe this was because of the big age difference between the two, so Qing Yan thought that maybe being in contact with children of similar age could properly eliminate some of Ling Xi's psychological shadow.
but……
"Why don't you two talk?"
Looking at the strange scene in front of her, Qing Yanjing asked helplessly.
It was different from the scene she imagined where the two people knew each other. Bai Ye and Lingxi sat on both sides of the table, looking at each other face to face, but did not say a word.
Lingxi kept her pretty little face straight, her eyes motionless, as if frozen.
Bai Ye, who was sitting opposite her, blinked his big round eyes curiously, observing every move of the girl in front of him.
The world is full of unknown things, and you must continue to learn to enrich yourself.
It's like Bai Ye doesn't know why Lingxi is motionless at this time. If he wants to understand the other party's thoughts, he can understand it as long as he reaches the same state, right?
"would not."
Bingyu, who had a clear view of everything, complained coldly.
Now it is a bit doubtful whether this kid is born with such a character, or whether it is caused by the training of the human woman named "Bai Yu".
This kid was completely different from the three- or four-year-old human children she remembered.
Bing Yu was not the only one who had the same idea. Qing Yanjing, who was sitting between the two people, also had a somewhat subtle mood.
Although she had not seen Muchen for more than a year, she was sure that her son was definitely not as weird as the two children now.
"Why do not you speak."
Faced with Aunt Jing's inquiry, Lingxi hesitated for a moment, feeling that it would make Aunt Jing happier if she took the initiative to speak.
Qing Yanjing was slightly relieved. Although she was already the mother of a child, she really didn't know how to communicate with these children now.
No one is born to be a mother, and she learned through practice time and time again.
"Then why don't you speak."
Faced with Ling Xi's question, Bai Ye answered with a smile.
"I'm asking you."
Lingxi frowned and looked at him displeased.
"I don't know." Bai Ye shook his head. "That's why I asked you."
Lingxi pursed her lower lip, and it seemed that what he said made sense.
"Because I don't want to talk to you."
Lingxi directly expressed his thoughts.
"Why?"
Bai Ye is very curious, what is the reason for this "not wanting"?
Without any personal emotions, Bai Ye was simply curious about this issue.
Qing Yanjing frowned slightly. At this time, she finally discovered something was wrong with Bai Ye. This child seemed to be too smart.
Being smart is a good thing, but if you are too smart, you will always lose something.
He will go too far to investigate the source, but ignore the most fundamental surface.
Such people are extremely rational.
Among the many talented people who competed with her in the past, there were such people.
But what happened to that person...
"No matter why, I just hate it."
Lingxi replied calmly.
Faced with such direct "hate", the expression on Xiao Baiye's face did not change at all. He smiled. He must be happy no matter what time.
"Snapped."
The sound of clapping came from the side.
"Okay, let's stop this problem."
Qing Yanjing said softly, if she continues like this, the relationship between the two people will not improve in any way.
Also, since she has decided to take the two children with her, she has the responsibility to correct the awkward personalities of these two little guys.
Time is still long and the two of them are still young, so everything has a chance to change.
Qing Yanjing stretched out her hands, pressed them on the heads of the two little guys, and rubbed them gently.
The eyes are gentle.
The two children were left without a family, and she left her husband and son behind.
So from now on, the three of them may be able to piece together a new family.
As if sensing the gentleness Qing Yanjing showed unintentionally, Lingxi and Bai Ye also stopped arguing.
The two little guys looked at each other and closed their eyes at the same time as if they had agreed.
At this time, there is no need to do anything else.
Just be quiet.
Be quiet and everything will be clear.
