Mr. and Mrs. Chen looked at Ali as if they didn't recognize her, and said, "Are you still our little girl?"
Ah Li thought that Mr. and Mrs. Chen suspected that she was not the real original owner of the body, and she was just about to try to salvage the situation.
Suddenly, Chen's mother hugged her tightly, crying, "My child, how much suffering you've endured out there!"
Ali paused for a moment, then hugged Chen's mother and comforted her, "I'm fine. Didn't you all say that I'm a girl and shouldn't learn martial arts? But later, my grandfather made me learn martial arts from him. Have you forgotten?"
Mr. Chen recalled that this incident had occurred. At that time, his father-in-law was angry with them, saying, "Girls need to learn some martial arts so they can protect themselves."
Chen's mother smiled somewhat reluctantly. She raised her head and touched Ali's hair, but she didn't say anything.
Ah Li could tell from Chen's mother's expression that she had discovered that Ah Li was not the original owner of this body.
"Let's go back," Chen's mother said, taking Ali's hand and leading them back to their current residential area.
When Duanmu Ye arrived, he had Lin Laoda dragged away. Then, when he wanted to go find Ali, he was stopped by Chen's father.
Mr. Chen said, "Let Ali talk to her mother alone tonight. Her mother misses her very much."
Chen's father glanced at the closed door and pulled Duanmu Ye away. This man was a superhuman, so they needed to keep him at a distance, otherwise he would overhear their private conversation.
He didn't even let me hear it.
Duanmu Ye left with Chen's father, but they didn't go too far, just wandering around downstairs.
Chen's father also asked Duanmu Ye about his journey with Ali and talked about Ali's childhood.
However, this made Duanmu Ye feel uneasy, as if the person Chen's father described was not the same person he had met.
Inside the room, Chen's mother was combing Ali's hair when she whispered, "I know you're not Nannan."
When Ah Li tried to speak, Chen's mother hugged her and cried, saying, "I know my little girl is long gone. I dreamed about her. She said she was going to a very far place, but someone would become our daughter and come to be with us."
“I thought it was just a dream, but now I know it wasn’t a dream. It’s because Nannan is worried about us.”
Chen's mother cried for a long time and held Ali in her arms for a long time as well.
Ahri stayed by his side silently until he was exhausted from crying, then helped him to bed and said, "If you're scared, I can leave."
But Chen's mother grabbed Ah Li and said, "I think even if you leave, my daughter will never come back, right?"
Ali nodded, and Chen's mother's tears came again. She said, "Then don't leave. From now on, you are my daughter, and I won't let anyone else know about this."
Even if it's Chen's father, it won't work.
"good."
"Then you can come up and sleep with me."
Chen's mother moved back a little, then looked at Ali, who obediently lay down on her.
Chen's mother hugged Ali and said, "Sleep well, my little girl."
Ah Li closed her eyes, feeling the warmth of Chen's mother.
Therefore, the reason why Ahri sometimes occupies a solitary identity in the small worlds she visits is because she is worried that people who are too close to her will discover that she is not the original owner.
In most small worlds, parents are always the ones who know their children best.
After Chen's father and Duanmu Ye looked up and saw that the lights in the room were off, Chen's father said, "Let's go back and rest too."
Duanmu Ye said, "Okay."
Then, Duanmu Ye and Chen's father slept on the floor in the room.
Because there is only one room and one living room here.
Duanmu Ye closed his eyes, listening to the sounds inside the room; he actually couldn't sleep well.
But knowing that Ah Li was inside, he closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
The next day, Ah Li was woken up by Chen's mother, who said, "Aren't you awake yet, you little lazy pig? Duanmu Ye is coming to find you."
Ahri pulled the blanket up to cover her head and said, "I'm so sleepy."
Helpless, Chen's mother walked out, saying, "Then I'll let Duanmu Ye go back first."
However, Duanmu Ye didn't leave; he was still waiting for Ah Li.
Ahri came out wearing pajamas, a pink little dress.
Beneath the skirt, her long legs were slender and well-proportioned, and the exposed skin was as delicate as porcelain, with a healthy glow.
As Ahri moved, her skirt swayed, revealing glimpses of her graceful curves and sparking the imagination.
When Duanmu Ye saw Ahri dressed like this for the first time, he was a little unsure where to look, since she always wore long sleeves and pants before.
Chen's mother also gave Ali a coat, saying, "Be careful not to catch a cold."
Ah Li immediately obediently reached out her hand, letting Chen's mother help her put on her coat.
Last night's conversation felt like a dream.
However, Mr. Chen said to Mrs. Chen, "I always said that you women love to cry. Look at your swollen eyes."
But Chen's mother said, "I'm happy to see my daughter come back."
Mr. Chen muttered to himself, "He was so happy, yet he cried all night."
Without saying a word, Chen's mother pinched Chen's father.
Duanmu Ye noticed that Ah Li was sitting calmly next to him, so he immediately took out the blanket from last night and covered Ah Li's legs with it, his gaze wandering.
Ah Li tilted her head and looked at Duanmu Ye.
Duanmu Ye whispered, "Don't expose yourself."
Ah Li thought for a moment and decided to change her clothes. She was actually quite uncomfortable, and judging from Duanmu Ye's expression, he didn't seem to be used to it either.
After all, she was used to wearing long sleeves and pants for so long, and suddenly wearing a short skirt, especially a rather short one, was quite unusual for her.
