He knew that he was still young and had no ability to leave this place on his own.
This older sister helped him drive away those who had been bullying him for a long time.
She is a good person.
Since she was willing to take him away with her, he would naturally agree.
After all, staying with my older sister is better than staying in Qu County and continuing to be bullied every day.
Li Xia saw the child nod, so she reached out her hand, gently touched the top of his head, and said with a purse of her lips: "Okay, since you are willing to follow me, I will definitely protect you in the future. As long as I have something to eat, there will definitely be something for you to eat as well."
She didn't make this decision on impulse.
The world is in chaos right now, with unrest everywhere. In addition, various forces are eyeing the situation covetously. Everyone wants to take advantage of the chaos to get a piece of the pie and become the supreme ruler of the world.
It was difficult for Li Xia to travel alone in this chaotic world.
She naturally understood that it would be extremely difficult to take care of another child.
But she also analyzed the child's situation.
Only then did I make this decision.
If he didn't take in this poor child, even if he wasn't bullied to death by the fat boy's gang, winter would be coming soon, and he would be homeless and unable to speak, so he would probably die.
Li Xia believes that meeting is fate.
If they hadn't met, she wouldn't have cared about it.
But since God let them meet.
God is kind and loving.
There was no way Li Xia could remain indifferent after foreseeing the child's fate.
No matter how difficult it is to follow her, at least you can save your life.
From now on, we will take one step at a time.
"It's getting late now. Let's find an inn to stay in first. Have a good rest tonight. I'll pack for you and we'll leave Qu County tomorrow morning." Li Xia saw that the child didn't like this place. She licked her lips and said, "Child, if you follow me, you will have to travel endlessly because I don't know where I'm going. Can you accept that?"
She could see that.
Although the child cannot speak, there is nothing wrong with his brain. He is smart and quick-witted.
He understood what I said.
Some things need to be said up front.
She could adopt him, but if he wanted a very comfortable and stable life, she was afraid she would not be able to give it to him.
When the child heard Li Xia's words, he first shook his head, then immediately nodded.
He frowned, his expression having been calm till now, and seemed very anxious.
The child opened his mouth, trying to express himself.
But when he thought that he would only make unpleasant sounds when he opened his mouth, he was afraid that Li Xia would be disgusted after hearing it, so he closed his lips again.
Although the child is young, he still has some self-esteem.
He himself hated the way he looked.
Not to mention outsiders.
The child hung his head in frustration.
Li Xia guessed what the child wanted to express to her based on his emotional changes.
Li Xia blinked her eyes. "Are you trying to tell me that you are not afraid of hardship and can accept following me on the journey?"
She opened her lips and spoke.
Li Xia didn't know why she was so sure that what she said was what the child wanted to express.
The first time she saw the child, Li Xia felt that she had a very good relationship with him.
This is also why after she learned about the child's situation.
She would consider adopting him.
It's fate.
When the child heard what Li Xia said, he immediately raised his head, blinked continuously, and nodded vigorously.
"Okay, I know what you mean. You don't need to be depressed." Li Xia twitched her lips and smiled slightly. She stretched out her hand to the child, "Come, come with me."
He is too young.
If I don't hold his hand, he might not be able to catch up with me.
The child looked at the delicate hand in front of him, pursed his lips, and stared blankly ahead.
No one had ever reached out to him.
Although the child is still at an ignorant age, he has heard too much dirty talk.
There are countless little beggars, little mutes and the like.
He was also used to these names.
Compared to these harsh words, being chased and beaten, surrounded and bullied every day is what is really despair.
The child has been living in dark and gloomy mud since he can remember.
Now suddenly a bare hand appeared, trying to pull him out of the mud and see the sunlight again. He was a little dazed, not knowing whether this was reality or a dream.
He was afraid that if he stretched out his hand, the hand in front of him would disappear.
If a person lives in darkness all the time, he will get used to it.
But if you see the light one day, you will no longer get used to darkness.
This is what the child is like now.
He had long accepted the bullying from everyone.
The appearance of Li Xia is like a ray of light shining into his life.
He wanted to hold on tightly and not let go.
I am also more afraid of losing it one day.
"Why are you absent-minded?"
Li Xia looked at the child staring at her hand in a daze. She blinked, waved her hand in front of him, licked her lips and spoke.
She didn't know what was wrong with the child.
When the child heard Li Xia's soft voice, he blinked and came back to his senses.
He shook his head, raised his little hand, wiped it carefully on the hem of his clothes, looked down and saw that his palm was a little cleaner, then he nervously held Li Xia's hand.
Her palms were warm.
A trace of warmth seemed to flow into the child's originally numb heart.
