"Zhizhi, wait for me to come over."
"I can't wait any longer. I'll focus on driving and try to get there as quickly as possible."
Xiang Nan, as if possessed by a ghost, drove a long way to another city and confirmed that the children were indeed not her Tangyuan.
Three of the children have already been identified and tested.
Only one baby girl remains at the police station. No one claims her or knows who she is. When asked, the traffickers said she was taken from the hospital. Someone brought her there to ask who wanted her, and he ended up taking her.
However, the hospital staff did not know that he was a human trafficker.
"What did that couple look like?"
"I didn't recognize her. She was wearing a mask and I didn't recognize her. She said she already had three daughters and this was her fourth. She didn't want her anymore, so she asked someone to give her away. I said my relative wanted her, and she just took her and left!"
The baby girl had a sallow complexion, probably because she was still a month old and starving. Her face was only the size of a fist. Her eyes were open, and she looked ugly, unattractive, and very fragile.
Xiang Nanzhi, having missed his target, squatted at the entrance of the police station, unwilling to leave, and began to cry while hugging his knees.
Xiang Nanzhi was found by Xiang Jingyi and taken back to the ancient city. Suddenly, he said, "Brother, I haven't dreamed of Shen Shixun or Tangyuan for so long, but it's not that I haven't thought of them. I think of them every day, whether I have my eyes open or closed."
"The people I dream about mean that I am being forgotten by them. It means that Shen Shixun and Tangyuan have not forgotten me, which is why I haven't been able to dream about them."
At times like this, Xiang Jingyi didn't like to reason with her and just went along with her, saying, "Yes, Shen Shixun will bring Tangyuan back."
A little while later, Xiang Nanzhi fell asleep, and Xiang Jingyi took her coat and covered her with it.
I didn't take her home; I took her to her current place.
Just as he put the person on the bed, Xiang Jingyi closed the door and went to the living room. The phone rang for a while; it was Li Mingyue calling.
He and Li Mingyue have kept in touch since that meeting. They have always been very polite to each other and get along well. There is no spark between them, but there is nothing that makes either of them unhappy.
Li Mingyue was not as eager for quick success as Su Lan, and her personality was also a bit gentler.
Su Lan did try to contact Li Mingyue privately, but she was no match for Li Mingyue after all...
"Are you back, Jingyi?"
"We've arrived at the ancient city. I just dropped my sister off at home."
"Are you coming again tonight? Didn't we agree to have a late-night snack together?"
Xiang Jingyi had almost forgotten, glancing at the time, "My sister is in a bad mood, I might need to keep her company."
"See you tomorrow."
"good."
Xiang Nanzhi woke up as soon as she got into bed and came out to unpack the package. Xiang Jingyi had just finished hanging up the phone.
"Aren't you going to sleep?"
"I'm not going to sleep anymore, my package has arrived."
She bought a type of mushroom that Xiang Jingyi had never seen before, but she noticed that it was shipped from the southwest region, where mushrooms are abundant and grow everywhere in the mountains and forests. However, every year there are also many cases of mushroom poisoning in the southwest region due to accidental ingestion.
Is it edible?
"able."
Xiang Nanzhi picked out a nicer-looking mushroom from the pile; it was yellowish with a hint of green. She washed it under the tap.
Xiang Jingyi was replying to a message when he saw her stuff the mushroom into her mouth. He quickly threw his phone away, but Xiang Nanzhi had already swallowed it.
"What are you doing? Spit it out!"
"Big brother..." Xiang Nanzhi said, "If you have nothing else to do, you should leave first. It's not good for you to stay here so late."
“I’m your brother, why are you eating this? Spit it out.”
After finishing his meal, Xiang Nanzhi started vomiting, and Xiang Jingyi immediately called an ambulance.
After I finished the call, I saw her lying on the ground, reaching out to touch something, with a smile on her lips.
When she was taken to the hospital for a checkup, she found out that the box of mushrooms she bought were all poisonous and could easily cause hallucinations if eaten.
No wonder he kept talking nonsense on the way to the hospital.
After being on an IV drip all night, Xiang Jingyi didn't close his eyes. Xiang Nanzhi opened his eyes and smiled, "Big brother, I saw Shen Shixun last night, and I also saw Tangyuan."
She's probably gone mad.
"That's an illusion, it's not real."
"Where are my mushrooms? Where are my mushrooms?"
She knew the mushroom was poisonous, but she deliberately ate it to create this hallucination.
Before dawn, a small tent stands beside a farm in the city.
Gila was suffering from persistent abdominal pain, so Rooney arranged for a car to take her to the county hospital.
The family waited outside, and just as the sun was rising, they welcomed Gila's child.
Shen Shixun was holding Tangyuan in his arms. The child was sleeping soundly. The man's face was pressed against Tangyuan's soft cheek. A ray of dazzling sunlight shone in the hospital corridor. The man looked over and said, "Deji, you have brothers and sisters now."
Gila gave birth to a son for Rooney, who was so happy he couldn't sit still and kept pacing back and forth outside.
The mother was still not fully conscious, but there was only one thing on her mind: taking care of the child.
The bond of blood kept her busy, so busy that she didn't have time to think too much. She treated Deji as Shen Shixun, and every time she took care of Deji, she would call out Shixun's name.
After Gila's child was born, she was not allowed to participate in the process. Chenmu treated Gila as a stranger living in the same tribe.
The new environment of the whole city was unfamiliar to her; everything was unfamiliar to her, except for Deji…
Perhaps it was because Deji looked like Shim Sehun when he was a child that her maternal instincts were overwhelmed, and she always had to hold Deji to fall asleep at night.
Gila was breastfeeding in the tent, while Rooney and Shim Sehun were busy working on the farm. Whenever he had a spare moment, he would sneak off to the side to watch Gila.
