"Sister, please say something." Xiao Qian took the tissue and asked, "What should we do now?"
"Qianqian, do you believe in cause and effect?" Xiao Yan suddenly said.
"Sister, what are you talking about?" Xiao Qian didn't quite understand.
"I've been having nightmares, and I've been having these vague, unclear fragments."
Xiao Yan murmured, "At the beginning, I didn't know what these represented or meant."
"I just thought it was caused by too much work pressure, but later I went to Qingniu Temple and found Xiao Chen's master, and he solved my confusion."
Xiao Qian looked at Xiao Yan stupidly. She didn't quite understand what Xiao Yan meant.
"Those...are all real things that will happen in the future." Xiao Yan clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into her palms.
"If nothing changes, those things will become reality."
"Don't blame Xiao Chen. The reason he's so indifferent to us is because he's really been hurt, both emotionally and physically."
As Xiao Yan spoke, tears fell. She had already seen the future.
After seeing clearly that the body with severed limbs belonged to Xiao Chen, he saw that the man who set fire to the house was Xiao Ming.
Although she couldn't figure out the reason, she did understand the result.
She felt sorry for Xiao Chen, and only now did she finally understand why Xiao Chen was so indifferent to his family.
What shocked her even more was that her younger brother Xiao Ming, whom she and her family had always doted on, was actually a devilish person.
"Sister, what are you talking about? I don't understand." Xiao Qian looked confused. She really didn't understand what Xiao Yan meant.
"You won't understand." Xiao Yan shook her head and took a deep breath.
"If Mom and Dad don't make changes, then what awaits them will only be very serious consequences. I don't know how to explain these things, so I can only stay away from you and the Xiao family."
"Sister..." Xiao Qian cried. She suddenly realized that this family had been shattered.
"Okay, go back now. I need to start working, and you have to work hard too." Xiao Yan said, "It's been a long time since graduation. It's time to get serious, otherwise your classmates will leave you behind."
"I understand, sister. I will work hard. I'm looking for a job." Xiao Qian nodded, and her expression gradually became complicated.
And it was the first time that she realized how painful it was to be ignored and neglected.
After seeing Xiao Qian off, Xiao Yan closed her notebook and looked at Xiao Qian's back, she sighed softly.
She couldn't imagine how terrifying it would be if the scene in her dream became reality.
And from this moment on, she truly understood why Xiao Chen was so hostile towards everyone in the Xiao family.
How painful must he have felt when his hands and feet were chopped off?
She wanted to change this outcome, but she didn't know where to start.
She could only follow Xiao Chen silently and support him.
After school in the afternoon, Xiao Chen returned home.
Xiao Yan was there too, with her hair tied up high and an apron on, helping her grandmother cook.
"Are you back?" Seeing Xiao Chen coming back, she happily greeted him and took the book from Xiao Chen's hand.
"Wash your hands and wait a moment. The meal will be ready soon. I'll help grandma. It will be quick."
Xiao Chen seemed to have gotten used to Xiao Yan's enthusiasm.
He just couldn't accept it for the time being. Seeing Xiao Yan turning around and about to leave, he called her.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yan turned her head and asked.
"Do you know about the Xiao family's affairs?" Xiao Chen asked.
"I know, Dad has been detained. I visited him in the detention center this morning." Xiao Yan's tone was surprisingly calm.
There was no excitement, no clamoring for Xiao Chen to find a way to release Xiao's father.
It was as if it was something that had nothing to do with her, so calm that it was a little scary.
"I sent him in." Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yan in surprise.
Xiao Chen began to doubt her indifference. Is she still Xiao Yan?
"I know that too. You don't have to worry about me. Just do what you think you should do." Xiao Yan's smile was a little forced.
"When did your relationship with the Xiao family become so bad? You don't even care that your father is imprisoned?" Xiao Chen asked.
"I said I would draw a clear line with the Xiao family." Xiao Yan lowered her head: "Since I said it, I will do it."
"That's not something you would say." Xiao Chen shook his head. Xiao Yan was awake? This was a little too rare.
"Xiao Chen, I didn't understand you before." Xiao Yan's nose felt sore: "I thought you were cold-blooded, heartless, and had no family affection in your heart."
"But now, I have seen the essence of some things. I have consulted your master, and the Taoist priest told me that everything has cause and effect."
“Don’t try to persuade others to be good without first experiencing their suffering. If you truly want to be forgiven, you must try to feel the pain you’ve endured.”
"Have you looked for your master?" Xiao Chen frowned.
"Yes, and I have also brought the dreams I've had these days into reality, so I've decided to draw a clear line between myself and the Xiao family. From now on, I will stand by you unconditionally and support you."
Xiao Chen was silent for a while. He didn't know what Xiao Yan had figured out, but looking at her expression, she seemed to be truly repentant.
Forgive? Sorry, I can't forgive you for now, but at least I don't hate you anymore.
"You go and cook, I'm a little hungry." Xiao Chen took a deep breath.
"Okay, wait a minute, it will be ready soon." Xiao Yan was happy because Xiao Chen said he was hungry.
This is a request to her that she wants to eat, and no matter what, it's a good start.
