Chapter 636: A Horrible Dream
After finis.h.i.+ng the noodles, she slightly tidied up the room and sat against the bed head like she did yesterday.
As for the cell phone on the bedside, she still did not pick it, which had been quiet for five days.
She didn’t know how long she had sat there. She would sit late at night until her eyes became more tired and sour, and then with no energy, she then fell into bed and fell asleep soundly.
In dreams, she came to an unfamiliar street, which was flanked with tall maple trees on both sides.
It was a day in autumn, the wind blowing and brus.h.i.+ng the leaves and golden maple leaves fluttering down with wind.
She walked along the quiet street until she came to the gate of a school. She stopped and listened to the sound of bells and children’s laughter.
She simply stood at the iron gate, looking through the gate at the children who were chasing and fighting with each other, and at their innocent smiles.
Soon a little boy’s voice came to her ears:
“Ye Zixi, your mother is here.”
Hearing the name, she was stunned, as if every nerve in her body were tightened up. This name was quite familiar to her, quite familiar.
Soon, out of the crowd came a little girl, five or six, with two little braids, dressed in a delicate little dress, pink shoes, white socks, who looked beautiful and cute like a delicate doll.
The little girl ran happily to the school gate, jumping happily.
“Mommy…” Far away, the little girl called her mom, whose sweet voice was especially loud and clear.
He Xiyan smiled almost instinctively and stretched out her arms.
The little girl was getting closer and closer to her, but just as she was about to pick up the little girl, there suddenly appeared behind her a woman, a beautiful and decent woman in a long dress.
The little girl did not run to her, but to the woman behind her.
“Mommy…” The little girl called her mom again and then kissed the woman hard on her cheek.
The woman also kissed the little girl and held the little girl in her arms.
“Xixi, let’s go to grandma’s house with daddy and mommy today to celebrate grandma’s birthday.”
“Okay, mommy, I’ve made a small gift for grandma.” The little girl smiled and took out a small box from her pocket.
He Xiyan looked at all this in front of her. She was stunned there with empty hands. She didn’t hold anything but air.
“Xixi…” She called the girl’s pet name in a hoa.r.s.e voice, feeling great pains in her heart that she was even unable to breathe.
Seeming to hear the call, the little girl turned around and looked at the aunt she did not know with surprise and doubts. She turned to that woman and asked, “Mommy, who is this aunt?”
Only then did the woman notice He Xiyan, but she soon opened her eyes wide and looked at He Xiyan with an extremely vigilant look.
She quickly led Xixi to a road not far away and warned along the way, “Xixi, you remember that I told you not to talk to strangers, right? Many of them are bad guys. They will kidnap and sell children. Do you remember?”
The little girl nodded.
He Xiyan just watched the woman taking the little girl named Xixi away. She simply stood there as if her soul had been taken away.
