Monster Tea Party

Chapter 6048 Almost

That being the case...

The child looked at his parents.

……

The man and woman nodded to the child.

"let's hit."

……

The child dialed his older brother's number.

The child's heart leaped into his throat the moment the call connected.

She was nervous.

For the past few days, she has been struggling with whether or not to call her older brother.

I never expected this...

It turned out that her parents made her make that call.

……

The child had no idea what would happen next.

She pursed her lips.

Waiting for my older brother to answer the phone.

……

Both the woman and the man seemed somewhat nervous.

after all……

If they could, they really wouldn't want anyone else to know that their child was having hallucinations.

But concealment is important.

Solving the child's problems is more important.

To solve the child's problem...

They are willing to take some risks.

……

The call was connected.

The other party's keen insight was somewhat beyond their expectations.

Upon hearing the child's mother's voice, the other party immediately guessed that the child had told his mother about their agreement.

……

The other person's intelligence put some pressure on the child's parents.

This shows that they need to put more effort into communicating with the other party.

But at the same time, they were also somewhat happy.

They hope...

This boy can actually offer them some help in figuring out how to deal with their children's problems.

……

"About what you told Ya Ya..."

The woman pursed her lips slightly. "Can we meet and talk?"

This was the result of her discussion with the man.

They didn't want to go through all that back and forth.

I just want to meet with people and make things clear.

……

Xu Zizhen was slightly taken aback.

Then he smiled and said, "Okay."

……

The woman felt relieved.

She revealed the time and place she and the man had previously agreed upon.

"Do you have time now?"

"Can we meet now?"

……

"can."

Xu Zizhen nodded.

……

Great.

A smile appeared on the woman's face.

So far, everything is going very well.

The woman gave the name of a coffee shop.

It's not the coffee shop downstairs from their house last time.

When discussing matters concerning children, the woman did not want to live too close to home.

……

Xu Zizhen hung up the phone.

He was somewhat surprised.

do not know……

Did he finally get a call from his child?
……

Xu Zizhen went out.

I wonder what the child's parents want to say to him?
Could this be... a trap?
Xu Zizhen found it somewhat amusing.

What are you thinking?

Did he think he was filming a TV drama?
……

Xu Zizhen took a taxi directly to the coffee shop the woman had mentioned.

……

Xu Zizhen got out of the car and looked up.

This is his first time visiting this coffee shop.

I'm not someone who enjoys going to coffee shops to kill time.

……

Xu Zizhen glanced at the entrance of the coffee shop.

I stepped out and pushed open the door to enter the coffee shop.

……

The crisp ringing of the bell and the melodious music almost simultaneously reached Xu Zizhen's ears.

It also has a rich coffee aroma.

Xu Zizhen couldn't help but take a deep breath.

It smells good.

The rich aroma of coffee wafts over, accompanied by the sweet smiles and greetings of the waiters.

……

"Let me check if the person I invited has arrived?"

Xu Zizhen walked into the coffee shop.

……

Soon, Xu Zizhen saw the familiar... child's figure.

The child sat with her parents.

The empty seat across from me...

Was it saved for him?

Xu Zizhen smiled slightly.

"found it."

He told the waiter who had been following him.

"over there."

……

Xu Zizhen walked over.

"Ya Ya."

He first greeted the child.

After all, compared to the child's parents, the time interval between his last meeting with the child was shorter.

He figured the child would recognize him faster than her parents. And...

Ultimately, his agreement was actually made with his child.

……

The child sitting in the seat paused, his swinging leg suddenly stopping.

She raised her eyes.

"...Big brother."

……

Xu Zizhen breathed a sigh of relief.

The child's initial confusion almost made him think that the child didn't recognize him.

Xu Zizhen smiled.

"Hello."

"Hello."

Xu Zizhen looked up and greeted the child's parents.

……

The woman and the man stood up.

……

Xu Zizhen waved her hand.

"Please sit down."

"I'll sit down too."

Xu Zizhen sat down in the empty seat opposite the family of three.

……

Xu Zizhen ordered a cup of coffee.

The waiter left.

Before leaving, the waiter secretly glanced at the group of people at the table.

I vaguely sensed that the atmosphere at this table seemed a bit strange.
The waiter didn't notice.

The guests' affairs are not within their jurisdiction.

Unless the guest requests it.

They can offer help to the best of their ability.

……

The woman and the man sat down.

The child sat between the man and the woman.

She stared blankly at her older brother.

……

Xu Zizhen smiled slightly.

He winked at the child.

Then, looking at the man and woman, he asked, "What do you want to tell me?"

Xu Zizhen got straight to the point.

……

The woman and the man were slightly taken aback.

The other party's decisiveness was somewhat unexpected.

The woman and the man looked at each other.

The woman spoke.

"Still don't know how to address your classmates?"

the woman asked.

……

Xu Zizhen was slightly taken aback.

Then he smiled and said, "Hello."

"My surname is Xu."

"Xu Zizhen".

……

"Student Xu."

The woman nodded.

She didn't actually know which two characters were in the boy's name.

But it doesn't matter.

that's not important.

She just needs a convenient way to address the other person.

……

"You told Ya Ya before..."

The other person's decisiveness made the woman decisive as well.

"Your uncle and her -
"I used to be just like her."

The woman revised her wording.

"Except for your uncle..."

"You also know someone in the same situation as Ya Ya."

"is it?"

……

Xu Zizhen tilted her head slightly.

"almost."

……

almost?
The woman was slightly taken aback.

"Did I say something inaccurate?"

The woman was not surprised.

The child is still young.

When relaying information, some omissions or deviations in meaning are inevitable.

This is all normal.

Anyway, both sides are still here now.

If there is anything wrong, the other party can point it out immediately.

Then tell them the correct information.

……

Xu Zizhen was about to speak.

He noticed the approaching figure.

He shut his mouth.

His coffee has arrived.

……

After the waiter left, Xu Zizhen spoke.

"It's because I don't know Ya Ya well enough."

Xu Zizhen smiled slightly.

"So it's impossible to determine whether their situations are consistent?"

"Maybe I'm mistaken."

……

Hey?
Both the woman and the man were taken aback.

What do you mean?
……

The child shifted his body slightly.

She quietly ate the cake her parents had ordered for her.

No sound was heard.

of course.

She didn't know what to say.
……

"Student Xu."
