Scavenging for trash... to support my dad...?
Yu Ning's eyelashes trembled slightly as her thoughts began to wander.
Yan Shuangxi knew her intuition was right. When she heard that Yu Ning had been scratched by wood chips during the official event of the art festival, she was terrified. Fortunately, the wood chips weren't coarse and didn't penetrate deeply, but just looking at them made her feel pain. But the person involved didn't react at all.
After class, Yan Shuangxi stayed with Yu Ning in the infirmary for a while. If it weren't for the fact that Yu Ning was the one to host the class meeting in the next class, she would have stayed with her until the end of the school term.
at this time.
Yu Ning sat on one side of the snow-white hospital bed, her beautiful willow-leaf eyes gazing blankly at the sky outside the window.
She couldn't really figure out how she should treat Chaochao, and in the end, she seemed to be acting hot and cold.
It's hot because I like it.
I feel cold because I like it so much and I'm afraid of being abandoned.
Just like a stray dog that has been wandering for a long time has a deep-seated love for being petted.
I didn't want it to be like this.
She was never firmly chosen, and as a result, she lost the ability and courage to firmly choose others.
Yu Ning was lost in thought and didn't even notice someone approaching from the side of the white curtain.
Until the 050 system suddenly shouted excitedly: "Aww, the second male lead is here! Hurry up and go!"
This finally pulled Yu Ning out of her dazed state.
Yu Ci leaned against the wall, looking at her calmly. His clear eyes held a misty look that others couldn't see, as if he was thinking about something, or as if he was exploring something.
He visited the injured student in his capacity as student council president.
Yu Ning, who had been forcibly awakened by 050, turned her neck to meet his gaze.
Yu Ci's eyebrows twitched imperceptibly. He showed no embarrassment after being discovered. He straightened up unhurriedly, his upright figure casting a halo of light around him against the backdrop of the sun.
050 was excited by the idol drama-like lighting and atmosphere.
Yu Ci parted her lips slightly—
"What happened between you and Chaochao?"
He looked down at Yu Ning with a detached indifference, his expression tinged with a hint of coldness.
Chaochao hasn't been getting enough rest these past two days, and he keeps sighing. Even during video calls, he can tell... Although part of it is due to his dark circles, it's mostly because of the two of them.
050's excited crowing was cut off in his lungs, "?"
Are you all alright?
Why are they all so focused on the child?
The boy's voice was flat and straightforward, even bordering on indifferent.
050 This time the rooster's crow turned into a duck's quack: "Quack?"
Is this how the gentle, beloved second male lead speaks?
In comparison, Yu Ning was not surprised at all, and felt a sense of relief, as if it were all just a premonition.
They're not even pretending anymore.
Yu Ci is not a gentle and harmless white moonlight; she is a white lotus flower with black heart.
050: ...You're no better. You look like an innocent little white flower on the surface, but you're actually a man-eating flower! A tyrant!
Moreover, an even stronger feeling enveloped Yu Ning's heart.
It feels like the wife is interrogating the mistress.
However, when Yu Ci asked the question, Yu Ning lowered her eyes and absentmindedly fiddled with the cotton cloth tied between her thumb and forefinger, her fingers still involuntarily twitching slightly. "Nothing."
As soon as those words were spoken, 050 in my mind started screaming again: "Why aren't you pretending to have a persona anymore?!"
Yu Ning felt that it was like a screaming chicken that covered the entire room, squawking wherever it went, with overly sensitive trigger points.
A hint of surprise flashed in Yu Ci's eyes. Naturally, she didn't believe Yu Ning's "nothing happened." Instead, she was surprised that Yu Ning had actually let down her guard, and her opinion of her changed slightly.
At this moment, both of them tore off their masks.
He looked at Yu Ning, who was staring blankly at the bandage on her hand, and after a while, the boy turned his head and said softly with his eyelashes lowered, "She likes Peppa Pig."
The topic changed abruptly, and Yu Ning looked up in confusion: "What?"
However, Yu Ci did not say anything more. After speaking, he turned around and left the infirmary.
Yu Ning, sitting on the edge of the bed, frowned, pondering his intentions, somewhat uncertain.
Yu Ci... is this meant for her to go and appease Chaochao?
On her way home, Yu Ning kept thinking about how her little one liked Peppa Pig. So, if she gave her the pig-shaped cake, she'd probably love it…
No, the little cake pig is much cuter than that hairdryer.
At least that's what Yu Ning thinks.
As Yu Ning walked and pondered, she glanced to the side and saw a pink glass pig, about the size of a pendant, displayed in the glass window. It had a long nose and two rosy cheeks.
She slowly stopped and stood still.
Chaochao, who had dark circles under her eyes for the second time, was much quicker to accept it. She went from sadly eating steamed buns at the beginning to happily drinking soy milk with the attitude of "whatever, it's not the first time." The whole process took no more than ten minutes.
But there are still plenty of things to worry about.
However, after a good afternoon nap, the worry faded a lot.
Chaochao squatted in the yard, reaching out to poke Grey Grey's bottom, who was diligently practicing taking off: "Sister...why don't you want to play with me..."
Originally, Gray Delight was full of energy and ready to soar to great heights, but this poke suddenly deflated it, and it turned around and started chattering to reason with the little dumpling.
The result of her protest was that the little dumpling picked her up and held her in her arms from head to toe. She sighed and thought to herself, "Xiao Qi... do you think Sister Yu Ning is unhappy about something..."
"Maybe."
The system, which had been forced into hibernation after consuming a great deal of energy, heard the little dumpling's call as soon as it woke up and weakly responded.
Then, barely managing to stay awake, I told the little dumpling, "I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep now," and then all was quiet again.
The little dumpling's mood was undoubtedly even lower because her good friend was not in good condition. What was originally just cloudy turned into a gloomy day.
Seemingly sensing her unease, the gray thing in Chaochao's hand gradually stopped struggling and let her do as she pleased.
In no time, everyone in the Huo family noticed that Chaochao was in a bad mood.
