Zhang Xiulin felt extremely distressed and quickly hugged him in her arms, gently patting his back and coaxing him: "I know, Xiaojie is not a monster, Xiaojie is not a monster. Don't be afraid, it's just a dream. It's okay, it's okay."
Xiao Jie's eyes were not focused at all, and he was obviously still recovering from the nightmare.
His forehead was covered in cold sweat.
Zhang Xiulin patted his thin back with his hand and could feel a sticky area under his clothes, obviously due to sweating.
Zhang Xiulin comforted her over and over again, her tone gentle, as if she was afraid that her voice would be too loud and scare the person in her arms.
The blood color on the children around them gradually disappeared, and their shrill screams were replaced by gentle comforts one after another.
Who is it? That voice is so familiar and gentle. Who is talking to him?
Xiao Jie's long and thick eyelashes trembled, and he suddenly came back to his senses, and his eyes as clear as glass regained their clarity.
He found himself being held in a cherished embrace by someone, and the voice that gently coaxed him was not an illusion, but lingered in his ears.
Zhang Xiulin noticed a reaction from the person in his arms, and immediately looked over. As soon as he saw him, he met Xiao Jie's gaze.
Seeing Xiao Jie regain his composure, Zhang Xiulin breathed a sigh of relief: "How is it? Are you still feeling unwell? If you are, be sure to tell me."
Zhang Xiulin kept on talking for a long time.
Xiao Jie stared at her without blinking, as if judging whether the person in front of him was real or fake.
After a long while, he asked, "Sister Lin?" The childish voice was a little hoarse at this time.
"Of course it's me, who else do you think it is?" Zhang Xiulin pinched his chubby face, "You're not mistaken, it's me."
The feeling on his cheek told Xiao Jie that the person in front of him was real.
But, how could that be?
Isn't Sister Lin going to get engaged to Han Luo? Why is she accompanying him?
besides……
He looked around. This was obviously his house. When did he come back?
He listened to the concerned greetings from the person in front of him, lowered his head, and tried hard to hold it back, fearing that his eyes would turn red.
After Sister Lin and Han Luo got engaged, she would not be so close to him.
From now on, she will smile at Han Luo and hug him...
Xiao Jie's hands were tugging at the corner of his clothes.
What to do, he was so sad, really so sad.
He raised his head, blinked his eyes, and said, "Sister Lin, I'm fine. I, I want to sleep. You can go back."
After saying this, he turned his back to Zhang Xiulin.
The child's back is a little thin, and the background looks a little lonely, like a poor little thing abandoned by the whole world.
Zhang Xiulin was not stupid and immediately thought of the key.
Pinching his eyebrows with his fingertips, Zhang Xiulin smiled bitterly. Well, it's my own fault for doing such a stupid thing. I have to bear the consequences myself.
"Xiaojie, are you thinking about my engagement?" she asked.
The child with his back to her trembled but did not look back.
Zhang Xiulin sighed silently and continued to explain: "I am not engaged to Han Luo."
Xiao Jie lowered his head. When he heard this, his eyes lit up, but within two seconds, they dimmed again.
Sister Lin must have lied to him. He saw and heard it all.
Zhang Xiulin continued, "My brother and his wife misunderstood what I meant." After a pause, she remembered her own stupid behavior and added, "That's not the case. It was my own fault."
The child still had his back to her and ignored her.
Zhang Xiulin smiled bitterly and said, "Forget it. For the sake of my future husband, what's the point of having face? Why should I be shy?"
