"Yu Zhi, are you listening to me?"
"...Yes." The sleepy little girl rubbed her eyes and answered.
"Then repeat it."
Qin Siyuan now knew how to treat her and continued with her words.
“…”
Yu Zhi struggled to sit up from the bed, racking her brains to think about what the other person had just said: "You said, we passed the preliminary selection?"
Qin Siyuan didn't think she could really answer it. After choking for a moment, she slowly said, "Yes, I passed, but the next selection will be more rigorous."
Yu Zhi nodded, she naturally knew this.
But even so, this result can be said to be beyond everyone's expectations, and it is worth everyone's joy for a while.
It was still very early, so she lay in bed for a while until there was a knock on the door and then she quickly got dressed.
The man holding the rose leaned against the door. When he saw her open the door, Shi Rui handed the flower to her naturally.
Yu Zhi couldn't be considered natural now. After all, the scene from the previous day had been playing in her mind and it probably wouldn't stop in the short term.
Shi Rui had no intention of coming in, but instead leaned over and started chatting with her.
Perhaps he could see that the girl was not in a very good mood, so he touched her forehead lightly with the back of his hand, and only felt relieved after feeling that the temperature was normal.
But the hand never left, as if it was craving for the warmth that came from it.
The little girl was also well-behaved. She really talked to him in this posture, her eyes blinking, and her face was made extremely beautiful by the red rose in her hand.
'Getting the Beauty Back'
These words that he had heard by chance a long time ago resurfaced in Shi Rui's mind, leaving him stunned for a while.
The girl looked at him with a puzzled look, and Shi Rui smiled helplessly before moving his hand away.
"I came to congratulate you."
"Congratulations?" Yu Zhi asked in confusion, and it took her a while to understand.
I think the other party knew the news a long time ago, so it's not surprising.
Most children like to show off in front of their parents. Yu Zhi is the same now. When she was congratulated by the other party, her tail almost stood up.
The little girl raised her head high, very proudly, and asked, "I'm awesome, right?"
Shi Rui suppressed his laughter and nodded seriously, then gave a thumbs-up and praised, "Amazing! Our Zhizhi is the best."
Yu Zhi was finally satisfied, but who knew that the other party would straighten his expression and say to him, "Teacher Zhu is back. Do you want to go... take a look?"
He said this after careful consideration. After all, the little girl cared a lot about this matter. Although she didn't say it herself, she would walk around her door every day.
Yu Zhi clenched the flowers in her hand a little tighter, and asked in a rare state of bewilderment, "Should I go?"
Shi Rui pondered for a moment, then offered the most pertinent advice, saying, "If we consider etiquette alone, we should go."
Zhu Yaxian first introduced such a good opportunity to them, and then stood up at the critical moment.
Regardless of the relationship between the two, this friendship is worth expressing gratitude for.
The little girl nodded, not knowing what she was thinking about.
......
"It's Zhizhi, come in quickly."
Seeing the girl outside the door, Zhu Yaxian smiled happily and greeted her directly.
Yu Zhi also walked in as she wished, and did not forget to hand the things in her hand to the other party.
It was a bracelet. Although it was not cheap, it was obviously not worth much considering Zhu Yaxian's current net worth.
But this was indeed made by Yu Zhi herself. She was not really proficient in such delicate work, so it really took her several nights to complete it.
There were obviously many more suitable and less troublesome gifts, but she fell in love with this bracelet at first sight, as a way to make up for the regret that she had never done anything for her mother.
Zhu Yaxian could naturally tell that it was purely handmade, and happily asked the little girl to put it on her immediately.
The two of them sat on the sofa on one side, holding hands and chatting for a long time.
The woman's hands were very warm, as if they could dispel the severe cold she had endured for so many years.
Finally, after struggling with her thoughts, the little girl finally spoke out the purpose of her visit today: "I came to thank you."
Zhu Yaxian obviously didn't take it to heart. She patted the other person's head and replied, "What's the big deal? It's just a coincidence. Besides, the good results now are all due to your own efforts."
She has a very gentle Jiangnan accent, which can make others calm down immediately. It is really magical.
Yu Zhi moved her lips but still didn't dare to speak.
Zhu Yaxian saw through it immediately and pretended to be annoyed and asked, "What? You don't want to tell me anything now?"
"No." The little girl answered immediately, then lost her confidence and lowered her voice: "I just don't know..."
The person opposite her looked at her encouragingly, and Yu Zhi finally uttered the last few words slowly: "I don't know why you are so nice to me."
Zhu Yaxian was stunned for a moment, then she laughed: "I thought it was something serious."
However, the girl opposite looked very serious, so she also explained truthfully: "People of our age believe in fate. I felt close to you the moment I saw you, as if..."
"It seems like I've seen it before."
......
Yu Zhi's mind went blank, and she even wondered if she might have heard it wrong.
All this was such a surprise that she even suspected that God had given her such a big gift because he saw how miserable her past life was.
So great that even if all this was a dream, she would still be satisfied when she woke up.
Tears gradually appeared in the corners of the girl's eyes. Zhu Yaxian had never done anything to coax a child, so she immediately panicked.
"What's wrong? Why are you still crying?"
Yu Zhi took her hand that was wiping her tears and replied with a thick nasal voice, "I just feel that you are very similar to my mother."
It was very similar, so similar that even though she knew the possibility was very small, she couldn't extinguish the hope in her heart.
Although Zhu Yaxian had not learned anything about the girl's background, she could guess from these few sentences that it was very unlikely that her mother was still alive.
I miss my mom...
The woman sighed in her heart, then hugged the little girl in her arms.
The long-lost warmth suddenly swept over her body, and Yu Zhi seemed to be back in the mansion when the two of them depended on each other.
Tears burst out, and I couldn't tell whether they were made of joy or longing.
"Good boy, you can tell me anything from now on. I will take care of you on behalf of your mother."
