Monster Tea Party

Chapter 6045 The Fourth Phone Call

Xu Zizhen was too busy comforting the child at the time.

Although the fact that Master Xiao had his own plans was taken into consideration, it seems that the possibility that Master Xiao might refuse was not considered at all.
why?
Because I know Ya Ya is a child...

Most adults are reluctant to refuse their children.

Xu Zizhen shook her head slightly.

With Master Xiao's help to his uncle, Xu Zizhen subconsciously felt that Master Xiao wouldn't refuse to talk to a poor child.

……

"All right."

Xu Zizhen smiled.

Let's leave this matter here for now.

He was worried that if he talked too much, Master Xiao would find him annoying.

"I'll contact Master Xiao after Ya Ya contacts me."

We'll talk about anything else later.

……

"Master Xiao."

Xu Zizhen smiled and said, "My grandparents know I invited you to dinner, and they asked me to tell Master Xiao that you can visit their home sometime."

"It's good to see maple trees."

He and his uncle didn't specifically mention the maple tree to the two elderly people.

However, they did not deliberately hide it.

The two elderly people must have vaguely guessed something.

These two are truly remarkable elders who have weathered many storms.

They didn't seem overly suspicious.

No one questioned their wild ideas.

This actually helped them get along well with Master Xiao.

after all……

Master Xiao is such a special person.

Although Master Xiao always appeared calm and unassuming, who knows if he has any special abilities?

Besides being able to see.

The unknown is the most terrifying thing.

Having one more friend is naturally better than having one more enemy. Putting aside enemies, such a special person is certainly better than a stranger with whom you have a casual relationship.

Who knows if we'll encounter any situations later where we'll need their help?

……

"it is good."

Xiao Xiao nodded.

He tilted his head slightly.

"I want to see the maple trees."

……

Xu Zizhen smiled.

"Master Xiao can come and see it whenever he has free time and wants to."

"Master Xiao will always be welcome at the Xu family's old residence."

……

A smile appeared on Xiao Xiao's face.

"Then I won't be polite."

……

"You are welcome."

Xu Zizhen waved her hand.

Master Xiao was too polite to them, and they ended up having to reflect on their own behavior.

Isn't their desire to befriend each other obvious enough?

If the other party ignores their goodwill, then they will really have a headache.

Now that the other party has generously accepted their goodwill, that's good.

……

The grilled fish at this restaurant lives up to its reputation.

Xu Zizhen was very satisfied.

He asked Master Xiao for his opinion.

He felt even more satisfied after receiving Master Xiao's affirmative answer.

……

As time passed, Xu Zizhen gradually became amazed by Master Xiao's appetite.

It's true that boys have big appetites.

But he didn't realize it...

So Master Xiao is a big eater!

Xu Zizhen's mouth was slightly open.

……

Xiao Xiao looked up and smiled.

"Excuse me."

"They are quite greedy."

……

"without-"

Xu Zizhen subconsciously curled the corners of her mouth and shook her head, then realized something was wrong...

and many more.

they?

Who?
Xu Zizhen looked at Master Xiao with a puzzled expression.

But then we noticed that after saying that, Chef Xiao went back to eating.

He blinked.

The next second, a flash of inspiration struck him.

they……

Could it be? !

Xu Zizhen was somewhat surprised and uncertain.

But the more I thought about it, the more likely I was right.

Xu Zizhen subconsciously looked around, taking in Master Xiao's surroundings.

of course.

He saw nothing.

……

"what happened?"

Xiao Xiao asked.

Xu Zizhen shook his head.

"……nothing."

Xu Zizhen wondered if Master Xiao was asking a question he already knew the answer to.

The answer doesn't matter.

Xu Zizhen grinned, "Master Xiao, would you like some more?"

……

After we finished eating, the rain outside stopped.

Apart from a few puddles on the ground, there was no sign of the torrential rain that had been falling for quite some time.

The fresh air after the rain is invigorating.

……

Xu Zizhen and Xiao Xiao returned to school together.

Xu Zizhen had many doubts in her mind.

It seemed that every time he met Master Xiao, some doubts would arise in his mind.

But Xu Zizhen hesitated for a long time and still didn't ask.

He was curious.

I'd also like to know.

But at the same time, he also rationally knew that the answers to these questions were meaningless to him, who could not see them.

He didn't want Master Xiao to think he was a troublesome person.

Master Xiao dislikes trouble.

That's obvious.

But unlike most people who are afraid of trouble.

Master Xiao is the kind of person who will lend a helping hand but doesn't like the messy "after-sales" stuff.

For Master Xiao, helping out was just something he did on a whim.

It's not too much trouble.

The endless thanks and inquiries from the other party were, in fact, a minor "trouble" for Master Xiao.

……

Xu Zizhen swallowed her doubts.

Forget it.

I can't see it again...

Take it easy.

Xu Zizhen slowly exhaled.

……

A week has passed, and Xu Zizhen still hasn't received a call from her child.

Xu Zizhen was pretty sure that the child wouldn't call him again.

His thoughts...

Well.

I can't quite put my finger on whether it's a bit of a regret.
Perhaps it's difficult for outsiders -
No.

It means fully understanding the thoughts of the person involved.

However, from an outsider's perspective, actively giving up one's own uniqueness...

It's hard not to feel a little regretful.

This special feeling might be lost as the child grows up...

……

Xu Zizhen then thought of her uncle.

He never asked his uncle...

Does he regret losing his ability to see?

Does he regret having the ability to see?

Decades of searching and waiting...

What started as anxious anticipation gradually turned into numbness and despair.

Then slowly force yourself to let go and find peace.

Or pretend to forget.

Only you know the bitterness and hardship you've endured.

However, he was just an observer...

You can get a feel for it.

……

If we give my uncle a chance...

Uncle will still choose... Do you see?

I would also choose...

Should you approach that "girl" when you see her?

……

Xu Zizhen thought about it a lot.

In the end, I didn't ask my uncle.

These assumptions are meaningless.

Everything has already happened.

My uncle has finally let go of this matter.

He didn't want his uncle to cause any more trouble because of his problems.

The past...

Let him go.

……

After class, Xu Zizhen took out her phone.

Three missed calls from unknown numbers were found.

Xu Zizhen was somewhat surprised.

Who?
Is this a pyramid scheme call?
Thinking this way, Xu Zizhen had no intention of calling back.

Pyramid schemes these days are really persistent.

They can persistently call you for a whole week.

With such perseverance, one can succeed in anything else as well.

……

Xu Zizhen was just about to put her phone away -
Another unfamiliar phone call came in.

……

This is the fourth one...

Xu Zizhen thought for a moment.

He stared at the unfamiliar phone number for a while, then slowly answered the call.
