Chapter 122 She Forgot Someone
Ruan Qi's eyes were red.
She carefully folded the 52 small paper rolls she picked, as if they were the most precious treasures in the world, and carefully put them into the small bag slung over her shoulder.
After doing all this, she turned and looked at Xi Jiu.
"Jiujiu."
Because she was so moved, the little girl's voice was filled with tears. She opened her red peach blossom eyes and looked at the man in front of her eagerly.
Xi Jiu felt soft in his heart when he was looked at.
He took the little girl's slightly cold hand, and gently pressed the red corners of her eyes with his clean fingertips.
"There are gifts ahead, baby, follow me."
Ruan Qi let Xi Jiu lead the way and followed him obediently as they continued walking deeper into the mountain road.
The lights from the 52 street lamps gradually faded away, and the surroundings gradually became darker.
Ruan Qi blinked, adjusting to the dark night. Suddenly, Xi Jiu, who was walking in front, stopped again.
Ruan Qi also stopped and asked, "Jiujiu?"
Xi Jiu didn't say anything.
He took something out of his trouser pocket and pressed it in his right hand.
Before Ruan Qi could see clearly what Xi Jiu was pressing, the dark night suddenly became as bright as day with a "swish"!
Countless moon-white beams of light shot straight into the sky at the end of the mountain road.
The dark blue lake glows with a faint light, and the bright stars in the night sky are reflected on the lake surface, sparkling.
Not far from the lake, a seemingly endless manor slowly emerged into the night. Within it stood a series of castle-like townhouses, their exteriors shrouded in a custom-made pattern of pale blue stars and lines. The building was breathtakingly beautiful, resembling the residence of the most beautiful princess in a fairy tale.
Ruan Qi looked at everything in front of her in disbelief, her beautiful peach blossom eyes slowly widening.
The dreamy castle and the deep blue lake were all reflected in her eyes, everything was quiet and beautiful.
Ruan Qi stared blankly for a long time, then walked towards the manor uncontrollably.
The manor's wrought iron gates are heavy and luxurious. The gracefully shaped, hollowed-out railings are adorned with a variety of beautiful flowers. Red roses, pink roses, white gardenias, purple irises... a tangled mass of blossoms tangle together, climbing up the wrought iron gates, creating a sea of flowers adorning the dreamy castle.
The night wind blew, and the fragrance of flowers filled Ruan Qi's nose, making him dizzy.
She looked at everything in front of her and murmured, "How beautiful..."
Xi Jiu, who was standing aside, looked at the little girl's fascinated eyes, and his cold and thin lips curled up.
He put his arm around her waist and said slowly, "A twentieth birthday gift, do you like it, baby?"
No one will dislike it.
Even though Ruan Qi is not a dreamer, she still cannot resist the charm of the fairy-tale dream castle.
"I like it." She looked at the starry sky and the dreamy castle and nodded vigorously, "I love it very much!"
As she spoke, she grabbed the man's hand, turned her head and looked at him, saying, "When I was a child, I didn't like to sleep, so my mother would tell me fairy tales. At that time, I thought that when I grew up, I must find a mountain top and build a castle. There must be a lake in front of the castle, and there must be lots of flowers. Jiujiu, this castle is exactly like my childhood dream!"
The little girl's eyes were sparkling, and her joy was unconcealable.
Xi Jiu looked at her carefree smiling face, and gradually, the girl's face slowly overlapped with the childish and chubby face of the little girl ten years ago.
"Brother Bingshan, do you have any dreams?"
"No."
"How can a person not have dreams? Brother Bingshan, think about it again."
"No."
"Oh... then Brother Iceberg, let me share my dream with you! I hope to build a castle when I grow up, just like in fairy tales, surrounded by flowers, with a beautiful starry sky and lake. Brother Iceberg, please wait for me. When I grow up and build the castle, we can live in it together!"
Later, the little girl grew up.
She forgot many things, including one person.
But her icy brother will always remember it for her and fulfill it one by one.
