Chapter 30 Patiently coaxing her to sleep
He Xilou frowned slightly, staring at her, his eyes flashing: "What did you say?"
Meng Shiyi's eyes were clear and soft, without a trace of impurities, and she repeated softly:
"dad."
He Xilou: “…”
Yes, I’m happy to be a father.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and a muffled laugh slowly overflowed from his chest. He pinched her cheek and said jokingly:
"You really want me to be your father?"
It was raining heavily outside the cave, and drops of rain shot down like silver arrows and poured down like a waterfall.
Thunder rumbled one after another, gradually getting louder.
Meng Shiyi's pupils were somewhat dilated, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead. She seemed to be trapped in bad memories of the past, feeling uneasy and afraid.
More and more tears accumulated in her eyes, and strings of tears fell, like condensed ice crystals, sliding silently across her face, leaving a shallow layer of traces.
I really cried.
Even when she cries, it's silent and pitiful, full of brokenness.
He Xilou raised his hand, his slightly rough thumb pressed on her smooth and delicate little face, wiping away the tears.
It seems like these tears can never be wiped away.
He wiped one away and she rolled down another.
What shadow does she have?
He Xilou: "Don't cry."
Meng Shiyi reacted, raised her little face slowly, and murmured helplessly:
"Don't go, don't go..."
He Xilou raised his eyebrows slightly and lowered his voice: "I'm not leaving."
Meng Shiyi's eyes were sparkling as she stared at him intently, her eyes full of trust in him.
She said in a muffled tone: "Then... hug me, I'm scared."
He Xilou was silent for a few seconds, and his voice was shrouded in a dangerous atmosphere: "Okay."
He grabbed Meng Shiyi's slender waist and held her directly against himself.
Meng Shiyi was very thin and small, and she was picked up in an instant and sat astride him.
This posture is actually very bad.
Meng Shiyi was very close to him. Her short top was wet by the rain and gradually became transparent, fully outlining the graceful curves of her body.
He Xilou sat taller than her, and by lowering his eyes slightly, he could easily see the beautiful scenery inside her neckline.
A layer of pink mist spread across the girl's neck, her collarbone was delicate and beautiful, and her skin was so white that it was dazzling.
The lace vest is light pink, with a small bow in the middle, and two full legs below...
Looking at the skinny little one, I didn't expect...
It makes people want to bully her and hurt her.
He Xilou rolled his Adam's apple and quickly looked away.
He suddenly remembered something and took out some candies from his pocket.
That was given to him by Meng Shiyi before he got on the bus.
The little girl was very generous and gave candies to everyone except him. He had to be shameless enough to ask for them and finally got a bunch of candies.
He Xilou sneered, pressed her waist, unwrapped the candy wrapper with one hand, and fed it to her mouth:
"eat."
Meng Shiyi tilted her head, acting obediently. Even though she was completely lost in thought, she was still very polite:
"Thank you…"
She lowered her head, opened her mouth and bit the lemon mint candy, and her pink lips also held a small part of He Xilou's index finger, which was a little wet.
“So sweet.”
She blinked her eyes and whispered, "Please coax me like you did when we were little, okay..."
He Xilou sneered, his tone mocking: "That's a lot to ask."
When has he ever coaxed anyone?
He Xilou had no experience in this area and was simply unwilling to do such a thing.
Coaxing people? It's impossible.
But Meng Shiyi looked at him expectantly, her eyes sparkling, as if he was the only one in the world.
He Xilou sighed softly, then raised his hand helplessly, patting her back again and again, patiently coaxing her to sleep:
"Be good, I'll accompany you, what are you afraid of?"
Meng Shiyi was very satisfied. She buried her head in He Xilou's shoulder and rubbed it affectionately like a little animal.
Not long after, she completely passed out, her brain falling into chaos...
Meng Shiyi has had a happy family since childhood. Her parents love each other and pamper and coax her.
Over the years, her parents have loved and cared for her, spending money to buy all kinds of things to make her happy. Although they are not rich, their life is warm enough.
In her second year of junior high school, Meng Shiyi was bullied by boys in the school and maliciously spread obscene rumors about her.
It happened to be raining heavily that morning, and she didn't want to go to class anymore. She stayed in bed and cried, saying:
"I don't want to go to school today..."
Dad tried to persuade her patiently at first, but eventually he couldn't stand it anymore:
"Your monthly test scores dropped from the top ten in the grade to over a hundred, and you still don't want to go to school? What the hell have you been doing in school lately?!"
The two of them broke out into an argument.
Meng Shiyi was silent for a long time, finally got up, washed her face and brushed her teeth, and sat in the passenger seat.
Heavy rain washed over the road, and there were flashes of lightning and thunder in the early morning.
In the car, the father and daughter were still confronting each other coldly.
Meng Shiyi has to arrive at school at seven in the morning and is about to be late.
While her father was sternly teaching her, he stepped on the accelerator. Suddenly, there was a loud "bang"!
The truck going the other way crashed into us without any warning!
The world spun around and the whole place fell into an endless abyss.
Shrill screams of pain, dazzling red blood, deafening thunder, and merciless and indifferent rainstorms...
If she hadn't been throwing a tantrum that morning.
Dad wouldn't have died in the car accident.
Since then, the once happy family was broken and her mother raised her alone with great difficulty.
It's all her fault.
It's all her fault...
Meng Shiyi slept in a daze for a long time. When she opened her eyes, the effect of the medicine had finally worn off.
She slowly regained consciousness.
At this moment, the dark clouds quietly retreated, and a hazy light appeared on the horizon. The rain had stopped, and a damp mist filled the air.
He Xilou was holding her in his arms and walking up the mountain, one hand around her waist, invisibly transmitting his hot body temperature.
It's a princess hug.
Meng Shiyi's breathing paused slightly, and a warm and throbbing feeling spread in her heart.
He Xilou lowered his dark eyes slightly and asked, "Awake?"
"Hmm..." Meng Shiyi buried herself in his arms and could even feel his heartbeat.
He Xilou: "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"No, it's much better now."
Meng Shiyi's cheeks slowly turned pink, and the tips of her ears kept getting hot. "I'll walk down by myself."
He Xilou lightly raised his eyelids and lowered his head slightly. His narrow, black eyes were particularly bewitching:
"The road is slippery after the rain, I'll hold you."
After saying that, he hugged her even tighter.
Meng Shiyi's face flushed slightly, she didn't dare to look him in the eye, her heart was beating fast.
What is this...
She didn't know how to describe the scene before her.
It was as if all sounds disappeared and the surroundings gradually turned into a dull black and white.
He Xilou was like a paint that broke into her world without warning, colorful and bright, making people want to get closer and touch him.
Just like filming a movie, all movements and expressions are slowed down, and every frame is extremely romantic.
"What are you daydreaming about?" He Xilou asked casually.
Meng Shiyi's eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, suppressing the surging emotions in her heart, and whispered:
"Brother Xilou, thank you..."
The three distant words "thank you" invisibly widened the distance between the two people.
He Xilou sneered, a hint of displeasure flashing across his eyes.
He suddenly felt a surge of interest and began to speak slowly and jokingly:
"Hey, why don't you call me 'Dad' anymore?"
