Such a beautiful and attractive person is rare. He felt that she looked familiar. In his memory, it seemed that a little girl used to come and buy from her.
But that was a long time ago.
"Um?"
...
Ertai, who was eating candy, slowed down his eating speed after hearing what the candy shop owner said. He looked at the candy shop owner in confusion, and then at the little person next to him.
“I used to buy your candy when I was a child.”
Chen Nian stopped eating the candy and looked at the shop owner, answering his question.
Originally, Chen Nian was not going to speak, but the candy shop owner's genuinely puzzled yet sincere gaze made him open his mouth.
"Oh, oh, oh, I remember now, you're the little girl who used to sneak out and buy my candy when we were little, right?"
I knew it! You look so familiar. Little girl, it's been so many years since we last met. How is it? Does this candy still taste like it did when we were kids?
I never imagined that after all these years, the little girl from back then would have grown into a young woman, and I never expected that we would meet again. It's truly fate.
The candy vendor looked at the young woman in front of him, who had grown into a young woman, no longer pale-faced, but exuding a weak and melancholic air, and spoke with a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a feeling of deep emotion or reflection).
He had worked selling goods near Mount Wutai for a while, and when he first entered the city, this young girl collapsed next to him, which really startled him.
He didn't want to meddle, but the little girl's words, "Father, it hurts," touched his heart, and he took her to the hospital anyway.
He's a father too, and he has a daughter. If something happens to his daughter in the future, he hopes someone can help her.
Later, the little girl was found by her family and left. After that, the little girl always came to buy his candy. She was cute and lovable, and he would always give her a little extra.
The little girl is really cute, but she's not in good health.
"Yes, we've all grown up. I never expected to run into you again. It's just fate. I should thank you for taking me to the hospital in time. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't be alive today."
She was bored and depressed after being trapped on Mount Wutai, so she sneaked out. However, she was in poor health as a child, and a gust of wind on her way out made her feel unwell. She fainted next to the basket of a candy vendor who had just entered the city.
Fortunately, the candy shop owner was kind-hearted and took her to the hospital in time. Later, Xuan'er and the others found her, thanked the candy shop owner, and took her back. It was after that that the Empress Dowager selected and trained her as a bodyguard.
Chen Nian had no idea that his unintentional murmur had touched the heartstrings of the candy shop owner.
"How are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"
Knowing that the person in front of him was the little girl from his childhood, the candy shop owner, he couldn't help but talk more and asked her questions with concern.
"alright."
Chen Nian smiled and nodded to the candy vendor.
Whether she's truly healed or not, only she knows.
Sometimes, telling a white lie is necessary.
She didn't expect that the candy shop owner would remember that she was unwell.
Looking at the candy in his hand, Chen Nian was reminded of a memory. He wondered if that little girl from back then had grown up.
Ertai, watching the two talk, realized that they knew each other. He stood silently to the side, listening to their conversation.
"It's getting late, they should have gone back by now, should we go back too?"
After the two finished talking, seeing that it was getting late and feeling the chill in the air, Ertai spoke up to remind Chen Nian, worried that she might fall ill.
Who is this?
