556 Back to Her Previous Life
A drop of blood dripped into the jade bead. The blood quickly spread to the entire bead. A moment later, the transparent bead turned blood-red.
Qin Xi felt dizzy and fainted. When she opened her eyes again, she heard someone nagging at her.
“I told you to go to bed early last night, but you didn’t listen. You stayed up late until midnight. I don’t want you to be outstanding. Why are you studying so hard for university? If you fall sick, it won’t be worth it.”
“Don’t stay at home all the time. Go out and play with your cla.s.smates more. You’re not a robot. You’re still young. Go out and play around.”
“Didn’t your father give you pocket money? If it’s not enough, I’ll give you some more. Go out and buy some clothes. You only wear the same clothes everyday.”
“Did you hear me?”
“Xi?”
Mrs. Qin, who was busy cleaning the house, did not hear her daughter’s reply. She stopped what she was doing and turned around, only to be stunned.
She quickly walked over in a panic and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong? Why are you crying? Did someone bully you?”
Mrs. Qin sat by the bed and hugged the girl with tears streaming down her face. She gently patted her back and said softly, “Don’t cry, don’t cry. My good daughter, don’t cry. Mommy is here. Don’t be afraid!”
Mrs. Qin’s embrace was very warm and comfortable, making Qin Xi feel safe and secure.
How long had it been since she was hugged by her mother? Qin Xi hugged her mother tightly, afraid that her mother would disappear in the blink of an eye.
Although she knew that this was not real, as long as she could see her parents alive, why would she care if it was real or fake?
“Mom… I miss you so much!”
At this moment, Qin Xi exploded with all the emotions she had been suppressing for the past few years. When she thought of how her parents were killed while protecting her, her heart felt like it was being slashed.
Mrs. Qin patted her head lovingly. “Silly girl, why are you suddenly so emotional? Did something happen? Tell me. I’ll protect you.”
Smelling the familiar scent on her mother’s body, Qin Xi’s eyes turned red again. Her voice was trembling. “Mom? Is it really you?”
Mrs. Qin smiled silently and stroked Qin Xi’s head. “What’s wrong with you today? Why are you asking such a silly question? Did you have a nightmare?”
Qin Xi looked up at her mother with tears in her eyes. “Mom… I miss you.”
“Alright, alright, alright. I miss you too. Don’t cry anymore. If you continue to cry, you won’t be pretty anymore.”
Qin Xi did not want to cry either, but tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. She stared at Mrs. Qin, sniffed, and asked in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Mom, where’s my father?”
Mrs. Qin smiled and said with a gentle gaze, “Your father will be back tonight from a business trip. He just called and said that he brought you a gift. He asked you to wait at home.”
Qin Xi smiled through her tears. “I’m already so old. Why did he still treat me like a child?”
Mrs. Qin rubbed her head and said in amus.e.m.e.nt, “I wonder who was crying just now. Now, you’re saying that you are not a child?”
Qin Xi blushed and felt a little awkward.
