Chapter 11: Not Sleeping with Him (2/2)



Unexpectedly, Xiaozhou saw it right away.

Last night, I had braised fish with a sweet taste. Maybe he guessed that I like to eat fish.

Bai Jiaojiao didn't dare to answer him. She always felt that he was looking at her mouth. Could it be that he wanted her to kiss him like Xiao's mother did?

No way, she couldn't do it.

As if noticing the dull atmosphere at the table, Father Xiao started another topic, "The quilt was dried in the sun two days ago, so it's just right to be used now."

Bai Jiaojiao said: "I will sleep with Yueyue tonight."

The place where Xiao's father lives is much bigger than where she and Xiao Zhou live. Xiao Yueyue also has a separate room, which Bai Jiaojiao had planned before she came.

"this……"

Father Xiao glanced at his son, the meaning in his eyes was very clear, they had a quarrel just after arriving?

Xiao Zhou pursed his lips and lowered his eyelids to hide the gloom in his eyes. He rubbed his hands under the table and gradually clenched them.

"Jiaojiao, you really don't want to sleep with me?" His voice was quiet, but there was an undercurrent surging underneath, and it was obvious that it was the eve of a storm.

Bai Jiaojiao's heart skipped a beat, but she still followed her plan and continued, "Dad, I just saw that Yueyue's condition is very similar to that of my friend's daughter. I was interested in it before and heard about how they treated it. I want to stay with Yueyue for a few days to see if she will get better."

When Father Xiao heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Has the child become more lively?"

Bai Jiaojiao said: "The situation has improved a lot, so I want to try to see if Yueyue can get better too."

"Okay, then you'll have to sleep with Yueyue." Father Xiao wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "I just hope Yueyue can be as happy as an ordinary child."

Bai Jiaojiao thought for a moment and said, "Mom's condition can also be treated."

"What?! Is it true?" Father Xiao was stunned by this huge surprise.

Bai Jiaojiao thought about it and gave the choice to Xiao's father. She simply said that Xiao's mother didn't want to recall the past, and if Xiao's father wanted her to return to normal, something might go wrong.

Father Xiao glanced at his innocent and cheerful daughter-in-law beside him and said, "If she doesn't want to remember, then don't worry. I can take good care of her for the rest of her life."

Bai Jiaojiao had expected this answer. Xiao's mother was no longer a young girl and had been away from society for so long. If she remembered some cruel things, she might not be able to withstand it both physically and mentally.

After all, a few decades ago, society was still terribly turbulent.

But fortunately, she successfully slept with Xiao Yueyue, so she didn't have to face Xiao Zhou awkwardly.

There are traces of Xiaozhou's past life everywhere here, and he will surely recover his memory soon.

Just as she was thinking this, she wanted to pick up another lion's head, but found that the plate that originally had a dozen lion's heads on it was empty.

Bai Jiaojiao's eyes widened. Who ate it?

Xiao Zhou lowered his eyes. There was still a trace of sauce at the corner of his lips, which he licked clean with the tip of his tongue.

Bai Jiaojiao had no choice but to eat the other dishes in silence. She poured the sauce from the lion head soup into her bowl and ate it with rice.

Well, even with just the sauce, it's delicious.

After dinner, Xiao Zhou cleaned up the dishes and took Xiao's father out to talk. After coming back, Xiao's father helped Xiao Yueyue and Xiao's mother wash up.

The nights in the countryside are really hard to bear. I go to bed earlier every day.

When Bai Jiaojiao finished washing up, the little guy was already in bed, looking at the ceiling with round eyes.

Others crawled under the quilt, but she didn't move either, she was already in a daze.

Bai Jiaojiao felt so soft inside that she touched the little guy's head and thought about what her friend who studied psychology had taught her about how to get along with autistic children. Then she told the story of the long-haired girl in the voice that she thought was the most gentle.

The little guy was probably sleepy, his eyelids were slowly drooping, and he slept peacefully.

Bai Jiaojiao looked regretful. She wanted to tell a second story, but it was too early.

She also wanted to fall asleep, but she couldn't feel sleepy no matter how she tossed and turned in bed. After all, it was only seven o'clock!

Thinking of the New Year's goods she brought, she got up and went out with a candle, and pulled out a few White Rabbit candies and some beef jerky from the candle. She picked up a coat at random, but maybe it was too dark, so she could only find Xiaozhou's coat. The rest belonged to Xiao's father and petite mother, and maybe they had worn them for too many years, so they were a little dusty. Of course, she chose to wear Xiaozhou's coat.

The clothes are big and good at blocking the wind, and it’s not the first time I’ve worn them.

She went out to the yard, but unexpectedly ran into other people.

The man was leaning against the door, looking up at the moon. His tall and slender figure and handsome features were illuminated by the moonlight. It should be a bright and sunny day, but on him there was an indescribable loneliness and solitude.

Bai Jiaojiao stepped out of the door, turned around, and was about to go back home when she was suddenly called.

“Jiaojiao.”

Xiaozhou noticed her at some point and noticed that she was wearing his coat.

The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and there was a dark light flashing in his eyes.
