After the door closed.
The figure that had inexplicably caused a sense of oppression also disappeared.
Bai Lu slumped into a chair, her disordered breathing and heartbeat gradually calming down, but she was still shaken.
She must have gone crazy just now!
Unexpectedly, he entered a hypnotic state and was able to access Xiao Cheng's memories again.
If Xiao Cheng hadn't suddenly approached and interrupted her deepening consciousness, she would have been exposed.
Xiao Cheng has a very strong psychological defense mechanism; she cannot succeed unless he does so willingly.
In later years, before Bai Lu even graduated, her father and grandfather gave her an internship opportunity, allowing her to hypnotize many good and bad people, villains, criminals, and ruthless officials and businessmen...
He never failed to obtain any information, no matter how superficial, except for Xiao Cheng.
He gave her a slap in the face of failure right after she graduated.
She couldn't even see Xiao Cheng's face, let alone hypnotize him. Xiao Cheng's whereabouts were unpredictable. He held a dominant position in the business world, but he seemed to have vanished into thin air.
Nobody knows where Xiao Cheng is. Even reporters with eight hundred eyes can't track him down.
The company is managed remotely, and staff only attend when necessary, yet the internal operations remain orderly and impregnable.
For outsiders to even see Xiao Cheng is as difficult as climbing to heaven.
If it weren't for that day, when Xiao Cheng was in an unexpected car accident, he was unharmed but lost some important memories.
He wouldn't take the initiative to appear in front of her.
Ask her to help him regain his memory.
Despite having a golden opportunity, Bai Lu failed time and time again due to her excitement and nervousness.
The third attempt was finally successful, and Xiao Cheng entered Xiao Cheng's memories, but Xiao Cheng interrupted it at the crucial moment.
Thinking of this, Bai Lu was furious.
What did Xiao Cheng say back then?
He actually looked out the window at the eleven o'clock sun and said to her, "It's late, I need to rest."
Rest my ass!
Are you a pig? Sleeping so early!
Giving an excuse about going out to eat is one thing, but saying you're going to bed at 11 pm? Who would believe that?
Anyway, Bailu doesn't believe it.
The consequence of not believing was that Xiao Cheng postponed the meeting to another day.
The changes were made back to the 1990s.
Bai Lu regrets that she didn't get to eat the bear's heart and leopard's gall back then, didn't manage to hold Xiao Cheng back, and didn't finish reading the memories, which has led to her eating the bear's heart and leopard's gall every now and then.
Bai Lu rubbed her face vigorously, changed out of her clothes, and put back on the clothes she wore in the morning.
Open the door.
Xiao Cheng was standing with his hands behind his back facing the main house door. When he heard the sound and turned around, his eyes seemed to show worry and anxiety.
Bai Lu doubted she was seeing things, because after blinking, Xiao Cheng's eyes remained calm and composed.
It was as if what had just happened was just an illusion.
I am still a little anxious.
Bai Lu, carrying the clothes, walked out quickly: "Let's go buy groceries first, and wash the clothes when we get back. I just took the clothes out to soak them in water; I didn't plan to wash them right now."
Seeing that her complexion had returned to normal and was no longer as pale as before, Xiao Cheng did not ask any further questions.
She nodded slightly and went to the kitchen to get a shopping basket.
Bai Lu put her clothes into the tub in the bathroom, filled it with water, and soaked the clothes completely.
Then he went out with Xiao Cheng.
I quickly bought my favorite vegetables and new shoes and came back.
After peeling the radish, Xiao Wei was now by the stream in the backyard, cutting weeds and throwing them into the water to feed the fish.
Before Xiao Dazhuang and Xiao Cheng left, they sent fish several times, including grass carp, crucian carp, and common carp.
The stream has turned into a small fishpond.
Xiao Wei squatted by the river, his hands supporting his chin, watching intently as big and small fish swam to and fro, occasionally popping their heads up to eat grass and leisurely blowing bubbles.
I felt a little disappointed.
Before Bai Lu moved here, Xiao Cheng often didn't come home and was rarely seen.
When Xiao Cheng returned, he ignored Xiao Wei. Xiao Wei was used to it and didn't have any greedy expectations.
Xiao Wei was very happy that Xiao Cheng could come home.
But now, Xiao Cheng treats Bai Lu very well, better than Xiao Wei has ever seen before. So well that Xiao Wei is envious and his heart is filled with uncontrollable expectations. But after the expectations come disappointment.
He was indeed too greedy.
His older brother hasn't even forgiven him yet, how can he be so greedy, expecting so much...?
Xiao Wei kicked off his shoes, sat down by the river, and put his feet in the water. The teacher said that cold water could make people sober.
Then you should really wake up.
"Xiao Wei."
It was that familiar, gentle voice, the voice my older brother liked, the voice he liked too.
Xiao Weigang, who had been looking down, suddenly stopped and turned around. Under the fluttering rain of white chestnut blossoms, her sweet and gentle smiling face was revealed through the open window.
He waved to him.
"Haven't you finished feeding the fish yet? Come back quickly, come to our room, there's a surprise for those who come early~"
If I come late, will there be none left?
Xiao Wei knew Bai Lu wouldn't lie, so he got up, picked up his little shoes, and walked back quickly, his steps small.
Soon we arrived at the open door.
Why aren't you wearing shoes?
Bai Lu stood with her hands behind her back, staring at the wet little feet in front of her, and frowned.
Xiao Wei was stunned for a moment, his little toe curled up, and he honestly answered while holding his shoes: "My feet aren't dry."
Bai Lu found a piece of useless scrap cloth and spread it on the ground. "Go up and step on it to clean your feet."
Xiao Wei knew that Bai Lu and Xiao Cheng were both very clean. Their home, with its ordinary cement floor, was kept spotless every day, with not a single hair to be seen.
Obediently responded with an "Mmm," stepped onto the rag, and rubbed it to wipe away the wetness and dirt.
He wiped it clean before looking up and saying, "All done."
Bai Lu smiled mysteriously, then suddenly reached out her hand from behind her back and poked it in front of the little guy.
"Try it on and see if it suits you?"
Xiao Wei stared blankly at the new shoes shoved in front of him. The size was just right, like his feet. The shoes were neither too thin nor too thick, making them perfect for the current season.
Moreover, the style was very new and unique; he had never seen it on his classmates' feet before, neither in the higher nor lower grades.
"Is this for me?"
Looking into the little guy's expectant and joyful eyes, Bai Lu smiled and nodded: "Yes."
"But didn't we already buy shoes before the Qingming Festival?" Xiao Wei was happy but also a little incredulous that he could receive three new pairs of shoes in a year.
Bai Lu said, "That's different. The shoes I bought for you before Qingming Festival, but this pair..."
She deliberately kept him in suspense and remained silent.
Xiao Wei looked up instantly, his gaze fixed intently on Bai Lu, his desire to know was obvious.
His breathing became noticeably lighter.
Bai Lu smiled and shoved the shoes into his arms: "These new shoes, your brother bought them for you~"
"Your brother personally picked out, paid for, and bought you these new shoes. Try them on and see if they fit and if you like them."
"I love it!" Xiao Wei nodded vigorously, holding the shoes.
I haven't even tried it yet, but I liked it as soon as I heard it was bought by my older brother. It's true that you love everything about someone you love.
Bai Lu was initially worried that the little guy would ask where she bought the shoes, but he didn't seem to care at all.
As long as it's bought by my older brother, it's fine.
Wearing new shoes makes me so happy I lose my bearings; my steps are so light I feel like I could fly.
