"Come on." Wen Wan smiled and encouraged Qiao Tianxin.
Then he slowly stood up, ready to end the conversation with the little girl and let the people around him talk about serious matters.
But the little girl was very capable. She lifted up the sleeve of her right hand with her left hand, took off the star bracelet on her wrist, and handed it to Wen Wan like a treasure.
Wen Wan was slightly stunned when she saw this, then pointed at herself and asked, "Is this... for me?"
"Yeah!" Qiao Tianxin nodded vigorously, her beautiful eyes curved into a crescent because of her smile, and she looked extremely well-behaved.
"Why do you want to give the bracelet to me?" Wen Wan did not take the bracelet directly, but asked very seriously.
After all, gifts for children are still gifts. Since they are gifts... you have to know why they are given before you can decide whether to accept them.
Qiao Tianxin always had a faint smile on her face, and explained sincerely and seriously: "I made this bracelet myself. Mom and Dad said that my brother has turned into a star in the sky, but I still miss him very much."
"The stars are too far from the earth. I was afraid my brother wouldn't be able to hear me, so I made a bracelet with elements of the stars. Wearing it like this makes me feel closer to my brother."
"Sister Wenwan, you helped solve this case, bringing the bad guys who bullied my brother to justice and ensuring that my brother and all the other victims were no longer wronged. So I want to thank you on my brother's behalf and give you this bracelet. Please accept it."
This little girl, who had just turned ten years old, said these heart-shaking words in her childish voice, which made Wenwan's heart soften unconsciously.
She slowly bent down again, smiled and joked, "Are you really going to give it to me? There should only be one of this bracelet, right? What will you do after you give it to me? What if my brother can't hear you?"
Qiao Tianxin displayed a calmness unlike her peers, and explained seriously like a little adult, "I'm grown up now, and I know what death means. Naturally, I know that Mom was just kidding me."
"I've known for a long time that my brother will never turn into a star, so this bracelet is useless. But despite this... I still never told the truth because I was afraid that Mom would be sad."
"Oh~" Wen Wan nodded in sudden realization, then continued to ask with a puzzled look on her face, "Then why do you want to tell the truth now? Aren't you afraid that Mom will be sad now?"
Qiao Tianxin shook her head without thinking and explained softly, "No one knows what true death is like. Some say that after death, everything is gone and consciousness disappears completely. Others say that after death, one becomes a ghost and is reincarnated back into this world."
"But no matter which one it is, we will never see each other again. But... although my brother will not turn into a star and will never meet us again, he will always live in our hearts."
"As long as we have him in our hearts, he will always be by our side, giving us strength from behind. Even a child like me understands this truth, so naturally, a mother will understand it too! So of course I can say it now!"
Qiao Tianrui looked at the little girl with soft eyes and couldn't help but praise her softly: "Good girl, well said!"
He now felt that it was right not to meet them, because... once they met, they would be unable to let go of each other, and forced separation would only make it more painful.
It is more hurtful to never have it than to lose it after having it!
He was already very, very satisfied just to be able to secretly watch them from the side!
He was very pleased with his sister's insight beyond her age. He believed that the Qiao family would get better and better in the future and would continue to be happy with him!
He will soon leave completely, but he will never leave. As long as someone remembers him, he will always exist! Always silently supporting everyone behind the scenes!
Everyone...will be happy!
Wen Wan gently scratched the little girl's nose with her finger, and said with a smile: "You are such a clever little ghost!"
After she finished speaking, she reached out to take the star bracelet, and then naturally handed it to Zhou Ziheng next to her, and stretched out her wrist as well, indicating that he should put it on her quickly.
After all, expressing your appreciation for a gift in front of the giver is a sign of respect for them.
Zhou Ziheng picked up the bracelet very familiarly and fastened it on her in no time.
Wen Wan held her wrist out in front of Qiao Tianxin and shook it gently a few times, then smiled and said to her, "Thank you for the bracelet, I love it! And please tell your brother for me, you're welcome!"
"Yeah!" Qiao Tianxin nodded with a smile.
Wen Wan quietly glanced at Qiao Tianrui next to her, only to see that Qiao Tianrui had a complicated expression and even the corners of his eyes twitched unconsciously.
Good guy! He exclaimed, "Good guy!"
He had thanked Wen Wan many times before, but never received a "you're welcome" response. Every time, she was told violent, bloody, and very graphic words like "What's there to thank me for?" and "I'll beat you to death if you keep being so rude to me."
But the younger sister just gave a bracelet, and received a gentle and pleasant "You're welcome". This wave of differential treatment is really amazing!
It turns out that girls are treasures and men are fucking weeds! After all, he is not worthy of them!
After Qiao Tianxin finished what she wanted to do, she stopped interrupting and stood back beside her parents obediently, leaving time for the adults.
Qiao's mother was also very pleased with what her daughter had just said, because what she said was indeed very reasonable.
