Chapter 201 I Don’t Want to Talk Anymore (Part 2)
Song Shengsheng was still hiding behind Fu Cheng, reluctant to come out.
But since the other person had already greeted her, she felt embarrassed to pretend not to hear him, as that would be impolite.
Song Shengsheng nodded gently, looking at him with a strange and alert look, and finally replied with two very stiff words: "Hello."
Even worse than strangers.
Huo Ni felt a little suffocated and depressed, but he couldn't tell why he felt this way.
The look in his eyes did not show the joy of seeing a relative. Instead, she looked at him with caution.
It was even worse than his previous indifference.
Huo Jin frowned, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Huo Ni really couldn't bring himself to say some corny words.
Song Shengsheng didn't have much to say. She didn't want to curry favor with someone who didn't like her.
She looked down and had no intention of speaking.
Huo Jin felt a little heartbroken when he saw her absent-mindedly dealing with him, as if a belated gust of wind had pierced his heart like a knife. He realized this long-lasting pain only later.
Huo Jin took the initiative to break the silence: "Mother has been trying to find you these years. After hearing about you, she immediately contacted her friends in China and tried every possible way to get you back."
Huo Ni said this because he noticed her indifference and thought she had a misunderstanding about them, so he gave such a restrained explanation.
Song Shengsheng was stunned for a moment when she heard this. To be honest, she didn't believe it.
Does she look silly? She believes everything.
She said "oh" and her attitude was even colder than his just now.
Huo Ni was actually a little helpless. He felt powerless for a moment in the face of her indifference.
After a while, Huo Jin asked, "Do you... want to go to the hospital to see your mother?"
Whenever Song Shengsheng is hurt or disappointed, it is difficult for her to give her true heart to others.
She shook her head. "I have classes tomorrow."
Huo Ling pursed his lips and settled for the next best thing: "You can go in the afternoon, or when you are free, you can visit me at the hospital at any time."
Song Shengsheng drooped her eyelashes, thought about it and rejected him. She said, "I didn't sleep well last night. I'm very tired. I need to catch up on sleep in the afternoon."
She said it very directly, she would rather sleep than go to the hospital to see her biological parents.
On what basis?
Even if her father and mother had their own unspeakable secrets back then, they really had no choice but to hand her over to someone else to raise.
Even if they really wanted to come back and pick her up soon, they really did nothing for all these years. They never gave her a penny and never took care of her.
It did not appear when she was beaten, nor did it appear when she had no books to read.
She has always grown up on her own and got the life she wanted on her own.
They never gave her anything.
So she didn't have to do anything for them.
Song Shengsheng suddenly didn't crave her parents' love so much anymore.
If they don't give it to her, she won't want it.
She doesn't want to be a poor beggar.
Huo Nian clenched his hands tightly, and the dull pain in his heart became heavier, as if a stone was pressing on him.
This was a situation that Huo Yi had never expected.
Huo Ting originally thought that this matter could be easily resolved. Life in the country was no worse than abroad. If they gave her a good life and affluent conditions, she would definitely be willing to go with them.
But now she seemed to care nothing about them and didn't need them at all.
And Huo Ni, at the first sight of his sister, felt a natural sense of closeness.
He wanted to take her away and leave this still poor and backward country more urgently than before he met her.
Huo Ting pondered for a while, then whispered, "It doesn't matter. It will be the same when we meet again after my mother recovers."
Huo Ni usually doesn't talk much, so it would be difficult for him to take the initiative to find a topic to talk about now.
Song Shengsheng obviously had no intention of taking the initiative to talk to him.
Huo Ting's Adam's apple moved, and he was silent for a long time. The words he spoke were also very stiff, "Is the university course difficult?"
Song Shengsheng shook his head: "It's not difficult."
Huo Ni pursed his lips and took this opportunity to ask, "Shengsheng, have you ever thought about studying abroad?"
Judging from her current attitude, it would be difficult for them to convince her to go abroad with them in half a month.
Suddenly, Huo Ni had an idea that studying abroad was a more legitimate excuse and would be easier to convince her.
Before Song Shengsheng answered, Fu Cheng hid her behind him and interrupted her, "Shengsheng hasn't eaten yet and is hungry. If you have anything to say, we can discuss it after dinner."
Song Shengsheng cooperated with Fu Cheng and nodded obediently: "I'm hungry. I don't want to talk anymore."
