Visible only to myself?
High technology.
The soft leaves of the bodhi heart grass gently scratched Jiang Xi's left palm. She silently said in her heart: "Open."
"Sister?" The boy couldn't help but call out again when he saw his sister who was taking care of him sitting there in a daze.
The boy's soft voice, still young and immature, brushed past her ear. Jiang Xi came back to her senses in shock and subconsciously smiled to comfort him, "Sister, it's okay."
After all, he had lived two lives, so such a young child was like a generation apart to Jiang Xi. Even if he had a heart as hard as stone, he couldn't help but feel sympathy for this innocent boy who suffered - what's more, he was so handsome, so handsome that it was hard to tell whether he was a man or a woman, and he was too young to know the filthiness of adults in advance.
Sun Ting was completely oblivious to the misfortune that had befallen the boy. She was simply happy that he had woken up. Xiaoling and several younger children gathered around her, "Little brother is awake? That's great!"
The gratitude and joy expressed on those innocent faces were sincere and natural.
Jiang Xi lowered her shoulders, her heart feeling so heavy that it ached.
Perhaps the boy noticed the depression and loneliness at that moment. He tugged at Jiang Xi's clothes. Seeing Jiang Xi looking down at him, he immediately smiled kindly, "Sister, don't worry about me."
It’s so small...
Jiang Xi's eyes felt sore. He stood up awkwardly, wrung out the cotton cloth with clean water, and started wiping them again.
The boy shrank back shyly, but stopped when Jiang Xi scolded him harshly. He just looked at her with eyes full of admiration and gratitude.
A sigh came from somewhere in the breeze, and Jiang Xi thought dejectedly of the rabbit.
"Here, give it to—"
The female college student rushed out and came back in a hurry. When she rushed over, she stuffed something into Jiang Xi's hand. Jiang Xi lowered his head and saw the familiar words "Xiao Chaihu Granules". He looked up suddenly and asked, "Where did it come from?"
Although cold medicine is not quite effective for the condition, it can also help clear away heat and detoxify.
But in this place, the only people who can get this medicine are those human traffickers.
The female college student grinned sarcastically, "What the hell is it to you?"
"How can you talk like that?" Sun Ting pulled her sleeves to argue, but was stopped by Jiang Xi. She looked at the man in front of her with a complicated expression. The thin shirt could not cover her exquisite figure, and the exposed part of her waist was stained with blue and red. The posture of her legs when she walked was not very natural.
Jiang Xi wasn't a student who grew up in an ivory tower. He had a mature soul beneath his skin, but after just a few glances, he understood the female college student's plight clearly and couldn't help but ask, "Why?"
——Why would you use your body to exchange medicine for a child you met by chance?
As soon as the female college student met Jiang Xi's gaze, she knew that she knew.
This clean, unpolluted high school girl had a beautiful face that she envied, and an innocence that she envied. Because of this innocence, even these beggars took good care of her and never touched her - but she, a rag and a worn-out girl, could not avoid being dragged into the dark and ruined.
"No reason."
The female college student said this meaninglessly. Seeing the tears in the boy's eyes, her face turned red and she said in a rough voice: "Hurry up and add some water to his drink, otherwise he will die of illness."
Jiang Xi stood there in a daze.
Huge waves surged in her heart, layers of waves rolled around, choking her neck and suffocating her. The heart in her chest that was tossing and turning hurt so much.
Why?
Why?
What the female college student did was completely different from Jiang Xi's previous understanding.
Countless doubts arose in her heart.
With a "crack", something seemed to crack in the chest.
The stone heart quietly revealed a little softness with the blood of life. The fragrance blowing from somewhere in the breeze filled the cold and hard dead branches, and quietly poked out a little new green.
***********
The daytime passed quickly, and people became numb and dull in the tile-roofed house where they could not escape even to eat, drink, defecate or urinate.
