It’s actually open?
Mu Lianshen frowned. Why doesn’t this kid lock the door when he sleeps?
Actually, no. The bolt was opened by Fu Xiao, who was awakened by his mental power when he jumped into the yard.
She wanted to see what he was doing.
Mu Lianshen walked in and saw the person lying quietly on the bed, and his panicked heart finally calmed down.
He walked to the bedside very lightly, almost silently, squatted down, and saw her lying on the bed. Suddenly, he seemed to be pulled back into his previous dream. In the dream, the girl was also lying alone on the bed, breathless.
Just as I was about to reach out and touch her hair, I saw her open her eyes.
Mu Lianshen, who was caught red-handed, quietly withdrew his outstretched hand.
He said apologetically, "Did I wake you up?"
Fu Xiao sat up from the bed, put the pillow behind him, half lying on the bed, staring at him with a pair of cat eyes, and said in a calm voice: "What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
Mu Lianshen smiled gently, "I heard that you went to the Mu family today? I just woke up and wanted to come see you, afraid that you would worry."
"Oh," Fu Xiao nodded noncommittally, "I've already seen it, so you can leave now?"
Mu Lianshen was silent for a moment, then coughed lightly, "An An, remember to lock the door when you go to bed next time. The Zhai family is different from your home. After all, there are outsiders here, so you must be careful. Otherwise, you'd better not live in the Zhai family. My courtyard house has been transferred to you, and you can live there..."
Fu Xiao suddenly smiled. She stared at the person in front of her and said softly, "I will be back two days later."
After all, the purpose of coming here has been achieved, there is no need to stay here...
Ever since she said this, Mu Lianshen has been staring at her...
Mu Lianshen's gaze lingered on Fu Xiao for a long time, so long that Fu Xiao couldn't help but ask, "Do you have anything else to say?"
He collected his expression, regained his composure, and smiled, "Nothing, I just had a bad dream, and I felt a little dazed. Seeing you made me feel relieved..."
Fu Xiao stroked the quilt, thinking, "What dream? Is it related to me?"
Mu Lianshen sat on the floor beside her bed and looked up at her. "It wasn't a good dream..."
"Tell me..." Fu Xiao looked at him with interest.
Mu Lianshen pondered for a moment and said softly: "I dreamed that you were cheated in Shanghai and had a bad life..."
But those are all dreams. In real life, you are very good...
After listening to him briefly describe his dream, the smile on Fu Xiao's face faded, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
She leaned her head back against the bed, and looked at him lazily, the smile on her lips gone: "Really? This dream is really interesting."
Mu Lianshen looked up at her and said, "This is just a dream. You won't be in that situation."
Just a dream?
Fu Xiao clenched his hands imperceptibly and suddenly said, "If I hadn't called my third uncle at that time, but stayed in Shanghai and waited for news from my hometown before rushing over, do you think it would be too late?"
Mu Lianshen's expression froze and he lowered his eyes.
Fu Xiao suddenly asked: "Do you know how many people were staring at me at that time?"
She stretched out her fingers and began to count, "There are classmates with ulterior motives, neighbors who want to eat our family's wealth, and..."
"If I had made a slightly wrong decision at that time, the consequences would have been..." Fu Xiao put down his finger and smiled faintly, "Did you see in your dream what the final outcome of me would be?"
Why do you think it was a dream? That was clearly everything that "Fu Xiao" had experienced.
Mu Lianshen lowered his eyes for a long time, then slowly clenched his hands on his knees into fists, revealing the veins on the back of his hands.
She said it calmly and easily, but Mu Lianshen's heart was filled with turmoil.
He was stunned for a long moment before he looked up at her. He raised his extremely powerful hand, wanting to touch her head, but he heard her speak again.
"What else was in your dream?"
The hand could no longer move forward even a bit, and fell to the edge of the bed as if it had lost its strength.
Seeing his ugly expression, Fu Xiao seemed to be unaware and continued: "What else did you see in your dream? Were you there? When did you appear in front of me?"
Hearing her question, Mu Lianshen suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and his heart ached violently.
No, he never really appeared in front of her from beginning to end, no matter if it was Fu Xiao who took the wrong path, or the Fu Xiao who became very powerful later.
He was just a passer-by in her life from beginning to end.
He never gave her any help, whether she was suffering or lonely.
He wanted to save the distressed girl from the dire straits.
He wanted to hug the lonely girl and tell her that someone was there for her.
But there is no way, he can only watch...
After staring at him for a long time, Fu Xiao finally made a move. She got off the bed, her face full of indifference and alienation. She stretched out her hand to feel his pulse. After a moment, she withdrew her hand and said, "It's nothing serious. I'm just worried and overthinking."
She raised her eyes and looked at him. After a while, she smiled and said, "It's late. Let's go back. I want to sleep."
Mu Lianshen stood up and looked at her for a long time. He wanted to say something but didn't know how to start.
With thousands of thoughts in his mind, he clenched his hands at his sides and turned to walk towards the door.
When he reached the door, he turned around and looked at Fu Xiao with red eyes, "An An, I will always be by your side from now on."
Looking at the tightly closed door, Fu Xiao withdrew his gaze calmly.
All cities?
So why didn't it show up sooner?
