Chapter 259: Scared
In the car, Huang Xin's face was full of apologies, "Xiao Gu, I didn't expect them to be like this. We won't go there anymore in the future."
Gu Fei comforted her: "It's okay, I just fought back, mom, you don't have to care so much."
"We are one family, yet you are still talking in different ways."
The two were not in a hurry to go home. Huang Xin took Gu Fei to a luxury store to buy things.
They entered a bag store with many styles. After looking around, Gu Fei found that there was nothing she liked.
All the nice ones had been reserved, and Gu Fei sat there waiting for Huang Xin to pick the one he liked.
"Don't you want to take a look?" Huang Xin asked when he saw her sitting there motionless.
Gu Fei said, "No, just look and buy whatever you like. I'll pay for it."
After she said this, Huang Xin casually picked one that he liked and paid for it. Then they went into the clothing store, thinking of buying some new clothes to wear during the New Year.
"What do you think of this one?" Gu Fei asked Huang Xin while trying on the largest size skirt herself.
Huang Xin looked at it carefully before answering her: "This one is not good. It looks a bit old-fashioned on you."
Hearing what she said, Gu Fei looked down at the dark brown skirt.
Huang Xin picked out a dark red dress from the selection and handed it to her, saying, "Look at this one. It will definitely suit you."
"Really?" Gu Fei asked uncertainly, "Of course." Huang Xin replied.
After picking out clothes, the two of them carried their shopping and prepared to take the elevator downstairs to catch the bus home. As they walked out of the mall, a slovenly woman ran over and grabbed Gu Fei's wrist.
"Where is my daughter? Where is my daughter?"
"Daughter, are you my daughter?"
"Daughter, why don't you come back to see me!"
"Little Jiao!"
Gu Fei was so frightened by her that her heart almost jumped out of her chest. She wanted to pull her foot out but this lunatic held it too tightly and she couldn't pull it out at all.
Huang Xin, who was standing next to her, was also startled by her sudden move, "Ahhh——"
The sharp scream startled passers-by on the road, and everyone looked at them.
Huang Xin helped to pry open the hand that was holding Gu Fei's ankle, but the madman still insisted on coming over and hugging Gu Fei.
Gu Fei held his stomach and backed away repeatedly. Huang Xin didn't know what to do.
The madman kept saying, "Daughter, you are my daughter."
Hearing the voice, Gu Fei knew who the person in front of him was.
She is Luo Xiaoyi.
Someone nearby couldn't bear to watch and rushed over to pull her away. Gu Fei looked at the person who was moving away from her in a daze. Was she crazy because Gu Jiao died?
The people next to them were whispering.
"This is the first time this crazy woman walks around these places every day, and when she sees a young woman, she runs over and picks on her."
"She went crazy when she heard her daughter was dead."
"Why don't the security here kick her out?"
"You think they didn't rush, but they rushed and ran back again and again."
Huang Xin hurriedly helped Gu Fei to get away. Gu Fei was still in shock and Huang Xin was even more at a loss.
"Sister Gu, Aunt Huang, what's wrong with you?" Xu Hai was planning to come over to see the excitement. He was drinking milk tea and playing games not far away, but he heard a group of people gathered not far away.
Out of curiosity, after he finished the game, he immediately ran over with his milk tea to see what was going on, and he saw Gu Fei and Huang Xin in the crowd.
After hearing the familiar voice, Gu Fei couldn't stop crying. She was really frightened by this sudden madman. She grabbed Xu Hai's arm and cried, "I'm scared."
Looking at the two people, Xu Hai quickly comforted them: "It's okay, don't be afraid."
As he said this, he took out two pieces of candy from his pocket and gave them one each. "Here, have a candy. Don't be afraid."
Those lunatics were sitting there paralyzed, saying that they wanted to see their daughters. After Xu Hai comforted the two ladies, he turned his gaze to the lunatic who was sitting paralyzed on the ground.
He saw this man when he came this morning, and now he saw him again and scared his sister Gu.
After comforting the two of them, he picked up the things that fell on the ground one by one and took them to the car for them. "Go home early." He took out his own headphones and plugged them into Gu Fei's headphone jack, and found two or three gentler songs for her, one headphone for each of them.
"Listen to the song."
"What about you?" Huang Xin asked hurriedly when he saw that he was about to close the door.
Xu Hai replied, "My car is over there, and I haven't returned my power bank yet."
"You go back first."
After he finished speaking, he closed the car door. Xu Hai should have gone home a long time ago, but his phone ran out of battery after shopping for too long and he was tired so he wanted to find a place to sit down. He sat down at the milk tea shop, scanned a shared power bank and played games while charging it.
The two of them listened to songs slowly in the car and the driver took them home.
Not long after the two of them came back, Xu Hai also came back driving the low-key Volkswagen. He did not take the things out of the car, and he would drive this car back to his hometown tomorrow.
When he returned home, he saw the two ladies sitting on the sofa with dull eyes. Xu Hai quickly called Song Tingxuan.
"Mr. Song, are you free to come back now? Sister Gu was frightened today."
After calling Song Tingxuan, he called Song's father, and soon his father came over.
Not long after Song's father came back, Song Tingxuan also came back. The father and son walked into the living room at the same time.
"Wife!"
"Xin'er!"
The call made the two ladies turn their heads to look at them. Huang Xin stood up, walked over and hugged him.
Seeing his wife like this, Song's father hurried to comfort her, "What happened?"
Huang Xin told everyone everything that had just happened outside the mall today.
After hearing what she said, Song's father hurriedly hugged her and comforted her again. He didn't expect that such a thing would happen just by going out for a walk. It seems that they must arrange a bodyguard when they go out in the future.
After seeing that they had calmed down the two emotionally wounded ladies, Xu Hai ran to the backyard with his skateboard to find Heng Heng.
Hengheng must be playing skateboard in the backyard at this time. "Hengheng, do you want to play together?" Xu Hai shouted to him from a distance.
"Brother Xu Hai, come here." Hengheng heard his voice coming down from the board and said to him.
"How are you going to spend the New Year?"
This is the question Xu Hai asked him. If they don’t need to worship their ancestors, how do they celebrate the New Year?
Hengheng told him: "We will have a family reunion dinner together, play mahjong as a family, give red envelopes to each other at a certain time, and visit each other."
"I can't set off fireworks now, but I will buy that sparkler and play with my sister and the others in the yard."
"I will also go to my friends' houses to celebrate Chinese New Year with them!"
Children always love Chinese New Year because it is a time when they can wear new clothes, buy new shoes, and eat all kinds of delicious food.
"It's quite lively." As Xu Hai gets older, he feels that the Chinese New Year is less and less festive.
He always felt that he was just completing the New Year's ritual.
It may also be because it is the New Year, and when relatives at home get together, they always ask me about topics that I don’t want to talk about.
Over time, I no longer look forward to the Chinese New Year.
"I'm going to ask Xiaohua to come play with me this year. She likes the color pink, so I'm going to buy her a pink bunny as a New Year's gift to her."
"Pink bunny." Xu Hai raised his eyebrows, "You really care about this little classmate."
Previously, when Xu Hai went to his deskmate's home and saw him caring about his well-being, he always felt that there was some unknown secret.
But what secrets do these two first graders have?
"Is there?" He hummed until he couldn't feel it.
How can it be otherwise?
Xu Hai now recalls the scene at that time.
After Xu Hai pressed the doorbell, Hengheng just waited there anxiously. When he saw someone open the door, he immediately ran to the front and explained his whereabouts and identity.
That eager look really made Xu Hai feel strange. When did this kid become so proactive?
After entering the house and seeing Xiaohua, he immediately stuffed the gift he brought into her arms.
"Xiaohua, are you sick?" Hengheng asked.
The other party was in a daze, and he asked again: "Did I hurt you that day?"
Chuncha poured them two glasses of water, and Xu Hai sat on the sofa awkwardly. Chuncha was also embarrassed, the living room at home was a bit messy, and Huabai had not had time to throw away the beer bottle that he had finished drinking last night.
The two adults were embarrassed, only the two children were chatting enthusiastically. Xiaohua was more introverted, and she answered all the questions asked by Hengheng, but her voice was relatively low.
"He saw that Xiaohua had been on leave for a long time and hadn't come to school, so he was a little worried, so he came to visit." Xu Hai said to Chuncha with an apologetic look on his face.
Chuncha shook her head and said with a smile, "I'm very happy that Xiaohua has such a friend. She is quiet and introverted and has few friends. I never thought that she could make friends at school."
It was obvious that she was very happy that Hengheng came to visit Xiaohua.
"There's not much food at home, so you just have to make do with it." She put the oranges and bananas on the coffee table and said to the two of them.
Hengheng was particularly happy to see Xiaohua and didn't care at all.
But Hua Bai changed after he came back. He saw Xu Hai and Chun Cha chatting and laughing there, and he thought of the fact that Chun Cha had asked for a divorce from him two days ago.
Under the influence of alcohol, he suddenly thought that Chuncha chose to divorce him because of this man.
He immediately went up to Chuncha, grabbed his arm and started cursing at him, then started hitting him.
Xiaohua went over to block him, but he pinched her arm hard.
When Hengheng saw this scene, he immediately rushed forward and protected Xiaohua behind him. Hengheng rushed forward to protect people. Xu Hai had brought the people out and he must also bring them back unharmed.
The result was that Hengheng pulled Xiaohua back to hide. Xu Hai rushed forward to stop Hua Bai, but the drunkard was stronger than him, broke free from Xu Hai's restraint and ran to beat Chuncha again.
He had already taken action, so how could he allow this man to beat up a woman? Xu Hai rushed over again and pulled the man away. He told Chuncha to find a place to hide quickly.
Who knew that this man would pick up a glass bottle on the table and hit him on the head.
After thinking back to that time, Hengheng was extremely anxious when he saw his classmate Xiaohua being strangled.
Although children don’t know what love is, Hengheng should have a good impression of her.
"Do you like classmate Xiaohua?" Xu Hai asked. At this time, his liking was just a pure liking between friends.
"Well... I have a crush on her, and she speaks very softly. Many girls don't want to play with her. There's nothing I can do as her desk mate, so I can only play with her." Hengheng's tone was full of helplessness when he said this.
"Yeah, that's good." Xu Hai nodded.
In the living room, after comforting the two, Song's father took his wife's hand and went home. Song Tingxuan asked them to stay for dinner but was rejected.
After they left, Gu Fei leaned into Song Tingxuan's arms and said, "I know who that crazy woman is."
"Who?" He asked tenderly, rubbing his arm around her shoulders.
"It's Luo Xiaoyi."
This is her, Song Tingxuan frowned, shouldn't this woman be working and living well near the dark streets now?
And why is she crazy?
The An family's house is not far from the large supermarket where they went shopping today, just across the street.
Gu Jiao had previously captured her and brought her to where she lived, and now the crazy Luo Xiaoyi thought she could find her daughter there.
But Gu Jiao had already died, so how could she appear in a place like this?
Today, Gu Fei went shopping. When she came out, Luo Xiaoyi saw that her figure was similar to Gu Jiao's. Even though she was pregnant, she didn't gain much weight, so Luo Xiaoyi thought Gu Fei was her daughter and rushed over.
"Do you want me to check it out?" Song Tingxuan asked. Just after he said this, the phone rang. After he answered it, he heard that the company had something for him to deal with, so he had to go back to the company now.
After hanging up the phone, he kissed Gu Fei on the forehead and said, "Let's talk about this when we get home tonight. My parents-in-law have something to do. I love you."
After he finished speaking, he stood up and went out immediately. Looking at his back, Gu Fei pursed her lips without much complaint. She walked to the backyard with her bulging belly and watched Hengheng practicing skateboarding.
"Mom, were you okay just now?" Hengheng asked when he saw Gu Fei slide in front of her immediately.
"It's okay, don't worry." Gu Fei took a tissue and wiped the sweat off his face. Even in the winter, he always worked himself into a sweat.
Seeing that she was fine, Hengheng didn't ask any more questions. He asked the maid to bring a blanket and food, and Hengheng helped her sit on a chair beside him.
"Mom, just sit here and don't move. There's water outside and it's slippery." Hengheng instructed her.
"Okay." She put the phone aside and smiled at him. After Hengheng ran back to continue playing, Gu Fei was looking for the phone there. He saw it just now, so why is it gone now?
She couldn't find her phone, and the maid came over with a blanket. She asked, "Xiaoxiang, help me find my phone. My phone is missing."
Looking at the cell phone next to her, Xiaoxiang covered her with a blanket and handed it to her, saying, "The cell phone is here, look."
"Oh, so it's here." Gu Fei suddenly realized.
