An Ci was quite surprised. He glanced at him and teased, "Hey, cousin, I didn't know you could play the violin?"
Eric was so angry that he wanted to smash the mouse on her head. "You will die if you don't hurt me every day."
Not feeling it was enough, he raised his head and said with pride, "What's the big deal about the violin? I can also play the piano."
"Stop showing off." Song Yuan clicked the mouse frantically and urged, "Come and support me quickly."
Eric quickly focused his attention on the game, but before long he was killed.
"Dead again."
He put down the mouse and decided to turn his anger into food. He stood up and ran to the kitchen. "Who wants ice cream?"
Song Yuan said, "I want chocolate flavor."
An Ci followed closely behind, "I want strawberry flavor."
"Baby, Mommy said you can't eat ice cream because it's cold." Song Xi reminded in a low voice.
Unlike An Ci's hazy peach blossom eyes, the little girl Song Xi has a pair of wet deer eyes, which reveal the innocence and ignorance of the world. She is like a carefully protected little princess in a fairy tale, making people want to protect her.
An Ci looked at her and smiled, "If you don't tell them, they won't know."
Eric came back with three boxes of ice cream and threw one to Song Yuan and An Ci. "What do you want to eat? It's my treat."
An Ci opened the lid of the ice cream and looked up at him, "Why are you so generous all of a sudden?"
Song Yuan said, "If someone shows kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief."
Eric rolled his eyes at them both, but rarely did he fight back. "I'll be going back to Country Y after the New Year, so I'll treat you guys to a meal before I leave."
After saying that, he lowered his head to hide the reluctance in his eyes, and his mood suddenly became depressed.
This period of time was the happiest time of his life. If his parents had not disagreed, he would have wanted to transfer here to study.
An Ci scooped a mouthful of ice cream and put it into his mouth. The tip of his tongue shrank from the cold, and he asked in a vague voice, "When are you leaving?"
Eric thought for a moment and said, "Five days later."
Seeing him looking dejected, An Ci rarely teased him. Instead, he comforted him, "Country Y is not far from Continent M. Come over when you have time. I'll take you out to play."
Eric was stunned. "You still want to go back to Continent M?"
"Well, I can only stay back for three months." An Ci bit the spoon, his brows full of helplessness, "Then I have to go back to school."
Shen Mo froze, his eyelashes drooping slightly, his face expressionless.
Song Yuan asked while eating ice cream, "When will you come back?"
"I don't know." An Ci shook his head and said uncertainly, "Maybe we have to wait until your winter vacation."
Song Yuan opened his mouth in shock, "So long?"
"I suddenly feel a little sympathetic towards you." Eric said with a laugh.
Taking classes under my grandfather's supervision, not only did I have no freedom, but I also had to study from morning to night. It was simply the most terrifying thing in the world.
An Ci glared at him and said, "Get lost."
There's no point in sympathizing with her. Her lips are almost splitting with laughter.
The people around him suddenly fell silent. An Ci turned to look at Shen Mo and handed him the ice cream. "Do you want some?"
Shen Mo's dark pupils moved, and he shook his head absentmindedly, "I'll go upstairs and read a book."
After saying that, he picked up his phone and went upstairs.
An Ci was stunned. Why did he suddenly think of reading?
She looked up towards the stairs and saw the boy's thin figure disappear around the corner.
Is it her illusion?
Why did she feel like he was unhappy?
Across from them, Eric and Song Yuan were already discussing what to eat, completely losing the sentimental atmosphere from before.
"I want to eat barbecue, or even barbecue."
"I think it's okay. Xiaoxi, what do you want to eat?" Eric turned his head and looked at Song Xi.
Song Xi's lips dimpled, "I can do anything."
Eric nodded and shifted his gaze to An Ci, "Xiao Ci, what about you?"
An Ci's gaze was still fixed on the upstairs. He replied nonchalantly, "Whatever."
Eric wanted to ask Shen Mo, but he didn't see him, so he decided to ask him later and turned back to continue discussing with Song Yuan.
…
It was not until the evening that An Ci discovered that something was wrong with Shen Mo.
After dinner, Shen Mo returned to Villa No. 3 and never showed any intention of coming back.
An Ci was so sleepy from waiting, but Shen Mo still didn't show up. She stood up, jumped out of bed, and quickly put on her slippers.
Then she grabbed a coat, opened the door and walked out.
In the living room, An Zhenxiong was chatting with Song Xiunian. Hearing footsteps, the father-in-law and son-in-law looked towards the stairs.
An Ci was seen running downstairs with his short legs, wearing pajamas and slippers, with a down jacket on the outside.
Meeting their gazes, An Ci hurriedly greeted them, "Grandpa, Dad."
Song Xiunian was about to ask her what she was doing downstairs, but the next second he saw her walking towards the door, as if she was about to go out.
He quickly stood up and reached out to grab the hood of her down jacket, "Where are you going so late?"
An Ci was held back by him and couldn't move. He turned to look at his father and said, "Let's go to Villa No. 3."
Hearing this, Song Xiunian looked puzzled, "Why are you going to Villa No. 3 so late?"
"Looking for Shen Mo." An Ci said as he twisted his body and struggled, "I'm going to sleep there tonight."
She wouldn't bother tossing and turning in such a cold day. It doesn't matter where she sleeps.
Song Xiunian suddenly remembered that Shen Mo was going back to Villa No. 3 tonight. He let go and looked her up and down, "Did you bully me?"
An Ci was speechless. If the person in front of her was her biological father, she would have started to argue with him if it was someone else.
