Chapter 161 Xiaoxuan’s Secret
Before Chen Qingqing could ask in detail, she received a call.
Shang Li said that Chu Yiyi called at ten o’clock this morning.
She asked about the well-being of all the superpowers in the 75th base on the phone, and then started to talk about business.
Chu Yiyi said that the person with multiple superpowers would come here in the near future.
She said that she would definitely take the initiative to attack, and hoped that Chen Qingqing could help her.
Chen Qingqing told Shang Li yesterday that if Chu Yiyi had any cooperation requirements, he should agree to it first.
Shang Li did just that.
He agreed vaguely at first, and then immediately mentioned the request that Xiaoxuan and Xiaoyu meet.
Shang Li’s excuse was - "Children care about their wounds. Let Xiaoyu try it. If it works, it can also be regarded as a way to comfort Xiaoxuan."
Naturally, this good thing will eventually be squeezed out for Chu Yiyi.
This is the first time that the 75th Base has made a request, and Chu Yiyi did not refuse.
But she remained vigilant and only said that Xiaoxuan and Xiaoyu should find a compromise place between the two bases to meet.
Someone will protect Xiaoyu during the period - of course this is just an excuse, Xiaoyu is a healing psychic, why does she need other people's protection? It's just a disguised surveillance.
But it doesn't matter.
As long as Chu Yiyi lets Xiaoyu meet Xiaoxuan, there will be further opportunities.
After getting Chen Qingqing's affirmation, Shang Li immediately asked You Zhi and Cong Xin to escort Xiaoxuan out.
Chen Qingqing was waiting in the base.
In the evening, Shang Li finally called again, her tone full of joy: "Sister, Xiaoxuan is back!"
Chen Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that she's back... How are her wounds?"
"Healed! You can't see them at all... The most important thing is, sister, guess who came back with Xiaoxuan?"
Chen Qingqing was stunned.
Could it be...
"Xiaoxuan came back with Xiaoyu!"
Chen Qingqing stood up suddenly and rushed to the office as fast as she could.
When she arrived at the office, Xiaoxuan was chatting with Xiaoyu, the big and the small were chatting enthusiastically.
When Xiaoxuan saw Chen Qingqing, she jumped off the chair and rushed to Chen Qingqing.
She lifted her sleeves: "Auntie, look! My wounds are all healed! You can't see them at all!"
Xiaoxuan's arms were indeed smooth, and there was no trace of wounds at all.
As if she had never been hurt!
Chen Qingqing touched Xiaoxuan's head, then looked at Xiaoyu.
Xiaoyu sat there quietly from beginning to end, looking at Chen Qingqing and Xiaoxuan with a smile.
"Thank you."
Chen Qingqing walked up to her.
"You're welcome. I like Xiaoxuan too."
Xiaoyu spoke for the first time. Her voice was soft and thin, but gave people a sense of tenacity.
Chen Qingqing smiled and said, "But we are still bothering you this time. If you don't mind... You can have a good rest in our base during this time. Let us do our best to be a good host."
Shang Li on the side was stunned.
Sister! Your thoughts are too obvious!
Chen Qingqing didn't think there was anything wrong at all, and looked at Xiaoyu with a smile.
The next second, Xiaoyu actually nodded!
"Okay."
Shang Li was dumbfounded again.
No, did the two know each other before?
"Xiaoxuan is amazing. She has suffered a lot and experienced so many traumas, but she can still live so optimistically..." Xiaoyu looked at Xiaoxuan tenderly.
"I think she must have her reasons for choosing this base."
Chen Qingqing: "I will definitely let you know the reason."
Chen Qingqing seized this opportunity and invited Xiaoyu to take a walk around the base, and Xiaoyu readily agreed.
Chen Qingqing took the opportunity to introduce Xiaoyu to the various advantages of the 75th Base. Xiaoyu listened with a smile and never interrupted.
Chen Qingqing introduced a circle, and the final topic fell on Xiaoxuan.
"Just now... you said Xiaoxuan had experienced a lot of trauma, what does that mean?"
Chen Qingqing only knew that Xiaoxuan had been bitten by zombies, but when did she have "a lot" of trauma?
Chen Qingqing knew that the most important thing she should do now was to pull Xiaoyu, but she had been thinking about Xiaoxuan in her mind just now.
After all, she was the one who brought Xiaoxuan back, and she had a responsibility for Xiaoxuan.
"Xiaoxuan's choice was indeed right, Ms. Chen noticed what I said." Xiaoyu smiled.
"Actually, this is the main reason why I came."
"I really like Xiaoxuan because she looks like my sister. At the beginning of the apocalypse, when I hadn't awakened my superpowers yet, my five-year-old sister died in front of me, and I was helpless."
Xiaoyu talked about sad things, and her voice and tone were so gentle, as if she didn't want to bring bad emotions to others.
"If no one needed my help, I would have died with my sister a long time ago."
"I thought I would always stay like this."
The person she wanted to protect the most was gone, she had no desire to live, and everything became indifferent.
But she met Xiaoxuan, a child who looked like her sister, and she came back to life.
"Xiaoxuan is just like my sister, cheerful, lively, optimistic, and likes to help others."
"We talked a lot, and I think Xiaoxuan also wants you to know her thoughts, but she doesn't know how to say it."
Chen Qingqing couldn't help asking, "What happened to Xiaoxuan?"
Xiaoyu exhaled slowly, "We all know that Xiaoxuan has been waiting for her mother to find her, but in fact... Xiaoxuan knows that her mother will not show up."
"Because her mother died in front of Xiaoxuan."
Xiaoxuan remembered clearly that her mother asked her to protect herself and avoid having her wounds discovered by others.
How did a six-year-old girl remember this?
Of course, it was because of the painful memory.
After Xiaoxuan's identity as an immune person was exposed, her family was hunted down and finally caught in the laboratory.
It was Xiaoxuan's parents who sacrificed themselves in exchange for Xiaoxuan's survival.
Xiaoxuan could not forget the scene of her parents dying in front of her.
But she was unwilling to believe it. It seemed that as long as she didn't admit it, her parents would still be alive. That's
why she kept saying "Mom is looking for me".
When Chen Qingqing first met Xiaoxuan, she claimed to be her mother's friend.
So from that time on, Xiaoxuan knew that Chen Qingqing was lying to her.
"But... why didn't Xiaoxuan expose me?"
Xiaoyu chuckled: "Because you are the only one who wanted to save her before knowing her immune identity."
"She is willing to believe you."
Chen Qingqing was stunned.
Is that the case.
"Xiaoxuan is not only cute, she is also a very smart child. I hope you can protect her. This is my only wish."
Chen Qingqing asked: "Why don't you stay? You like Xiaoxuan so much, no one will treat her better than you. And Xiaoxuan trusts you so much..."
Xiaoyu shook her head slowly.
"I can't leave Chu Yiyi completely. If we met earlier, there would be a chance. But now... I can't."
