Miss, you really caught the wrong fish!

Now there is a huge gap between the past and the present. Even though she is an iceberg woman who treats emotions lightly, she still feels the obvious bitterness and unwillingness in her heart.

But these are ultimately the result of the woman's own fault, and no one else can be blamed.

Ning Muxuan slowly exhaled a breath of cool air. When facing the boy's resistance, the woman lowered her eyebrows and thought for a while, and finally opened her red lips slightly and continued to whisper:

"Xiao Qin, if you haven't rested yet, can you listen to me? It won't take too long. After I finish speaking... I will leave right away."

The woman lowered her eyes and gently placed her bare hand on the door. What she could not have imagined was that the boy in the room had also come to the door, and was only one door away from her.

It was just a few centimeters apart, but it could completely separate the two of them. The dim room and the brightly lit corridor were really like the boundary between life and death.

It was not until the woman spoke again that the dead silence was finally broken.

"I'm sorry... I have a bad temper and I don't consider the feelings of the people around me. I was cold, indifferent and even... hurtful to Xiao Qin before -"

"These are all my own problems. They have nothing to do with my father. I hope you, Xiao Qin, will not alienate me from my father because of this..."

Ning Muxuan clenched her hands tightly, her fingertips piercing deeply into her skin.

"I won't expect Xiao Qin to forgive me for the harm I've done to you. If Xiao Qin still wants to retaliate or vent, I can accept it one by one..."

The woman's eyes were lowered, her hair was scattered, and her pretty face showed loneliness. She drooped her shoulders as if she had lost strength.

Ning Muxuan withdrew her hand and said slowly again

"I'm in the room. If Xiao Qin wants to, you can come..."

Ning Muxuan was stunned again when she was speaking softly.

Then he shook his head in self-mockery, as if this was the greatest luxury.

——How could the boy nowadays want to see me again...

The woman stood outside the door for a long time before finally turning around and leaving with a dejected look on her face...

--------

If nothing unexpected happens tonight, there will be 2 more chapters.

Xiao Xuanzi has worked really hard. The voting for Qin Heng's character next month depends on everyone. The event will start on the 1st.

The top four can choose a beautiful and full-bodied character, and then everyone can vote for a favorite character to meet in person.

Ning Muxuan, Qing Nianyi or Xiao Junling, all are fine~

Xuanzi is hungry, needs a vote, vote?

214. Coincidence - Confusing

The boy leaned his head quietly against the door, listening to the soft whispers of his "sister" who was just across the door.

But until the words fell completely and the person left quietly, Xiao Qinheng still couldn't muster up the courage to meet her. He just hid himself according to his instinct, not wanting to be hurt by her anymore...

Only when he could no longer hear any sound outside the door did little Qin Heng slowly lean against the door, and then slid down weakly onto the floor.

He reached out his hand and stroked the scar on his neck, with some fear in his eyes. When he learned about his "sister's" apology to him, he felt mixed emotions...

Fear, terror, joy, anticipation - all these emotions mixed together, making the boy feel a little breathless...

After a while, little Qin Heng slowly stood up again. Although he knew that his "sister" had left, he still placed his hand on the handle and slowly opened the door.

He knew the result long ago, but when he saw the empty corridor outside, he still felt the empty silence in his heart...

The person in his impression is the future family member he has been looking forward to. She is the sister he can rely on and act like a spoiled child. She is the relative he longs for in his life.

But in reality, she was also a beautiful woman with an indifferent and distant face. She did not treat him as gently as her family did, and even hurt him...

Reason warns the boy to stay away from her, but his emotions and desire for his family still make him want to get close to his "sister" and get close to her. Even if he knows he shouldn't do this, his emotional intuition is often the deepest desire in his heart, which no one can give up...

At this moment, his heart was in a state of confusion and contradiction. For a ten-year-old child, this was truly a huge problem.

The boy sat down again, holding his head in pain. He didn't know how to choose, whether to follow his inner desire or to accept it calmly, eliminate external uncertainties and prevent himself from getting hurt again.

As time passed, the boy felt more and more lonely and depressed as he looked at the empty corridor.

He slowly stood up and struggled for a long time. In the end, his inner desire and love for his family overcame his body's instinctive fear and resistance.

——No matter what happened in the past, now he really just wants to see his "sister" again. Even if it's just to say a few words to her.

Even the boy himself knew that if he didn't tell the other person what was in his heart now, he would definitely regret it when his "sister" really left.

"call--"

Little Qin Heng leaned against the wall, took deep breaths, constantly calming his emotions and encouraging himself in his heart.

When everything was ready, the little boy was about to take that step. Looking at the dark corridor outside, his head shuddered and he suddenly remembered something.

He quickly picked up the electronic watch in the study and used the dim light to read the time.

"It's already that late!?..."

Little Qin Heng himself found it a little unbelievable that from the time when his "sister" came to see him until now, he had actually wasted so much time on psychological struggle - what time was it in the early morning now!

If I were to look for my "sister" now...

"My sister... should have rested a long time ago... If I go now, it might be a bad idea..."

The courage that he had just managed to build up in his heart suddenly deflated like a deflated balloon. The boy couldn't help but start to worry again...

"No, it's okay. Even if Sister is resting, Xiao Qin won't disturb Sister's sleep... I'll just take a look, just a glance, and I'll be back soon!"

The boy found an excuse for himself, and without further hesitation, he took the lantern and walked towards the door.

Along the way, the child was no longer fussy, but was mentally prepared and went straight to his room.

Because "Sister" was there, resting in her room——

When he thought of this, little Qin Heng inexplicably felt a sense of peace and a little pride in his heart.

When he finally arrived at the familiar door, the boy took a deep breath and just as he was about to touch the door handle -

Unexpected situation suddenly happened at this time

"Click——"

Qin Heng's hand hadn't touched the door yet, but there was a sudden sound of the door opening.

"!?"

When the boy saw this, he trembled all over as if he was a thief about to be discovered, and then quickly ran to the corner of the corridor and hid himself.

——It’s funny, it was the boy who volunteered to go find his sister, but when the time came, he still backed out.

Just when Xiao Qinheng was about to stick his head out to check the situation,

"ah!--"

Before Xiao Qinheng could react, he bumped into the person in front of him and sat down on the cold floor.

——It’s over, it’s over, it’s over!!!

Xiao Qinheng's heart suddenly chilled

When he realized that he had been discovered and had bumped into his "sister", he did not even bother to take care of the small flashlight that had fallen to the ground. He quickly sat up and apologized in a confused manner.

"S-Sorry! I-I didn't mean to-"

"Xiao Qin? Why are you here?"

"!?"

But the voice coming from the front was not "sister", but a gentle and familiar male voice.

"Uncle Murong?"

When the other person picked up the flashlight on the ground, with the help of the faint light, the boy finally saw the appearance of the person he had just bumped into.

Of course, this person was not Ning Muxuan, but her father Murong Xuan.

Seeing the child in front of him, Murong Xuan was also very surprised. He quickly bent down and picked up the boy, patted the dust off his body, and asked worriedly:

"How are you, Xiao Qin? Are you okay? If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, tell your uncle quickly."

"No, no, my butt is just cold, I don't feel uncomfortable at all! Uncle, don't worry about me..."

Little Qin Heng was embarrassed and waved his hand hurriedly.

"Is that so? That's great. It's all my fault that I was in such a hurry that I didn't pay attention to what was underneath me."

"That's not the case, haha"

After hearing the boy say this, and after Murong Xuan checked several times himself and made sure that the other party was really fine, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But soon, the man frowned again and asked the little guy in front of him in confusion.

"By the way, Xiao Qin, why are you in a place like this so late?"

"Ah!? Uh, this is because..."

When the other party suddenly asked him about his visit to his "sister", Xiao Qinheng was too embarrassed to speak up, so he quickly found an excuse to evade the question.

"Oh, I woke up suddenly in the middle of the night and wanted to go to the bathroom, but there wasn't one in the study... so I just came up from the first floor. Who knew it would be such a coincidence that I ran into Uncle Murong~ Hehe."

Little Qin Heng scratched his head harmlessly, looking very shy and natural.

"Is this so..."

Murong Xuan thought for a while, and finally nodded gently.

——After all, he had just lived in the study yesterday, and there was indeed no toilet in it. In addition, the boy was so sensible that he would definitely not knock on their door in the middle of the night, so he could only go to the toilet downstairs.

"Then, what about uncle? Is he still awake so late? Why is he... here..."

"!?..."

--------

Now this is the second update, but what Xiaoxuanzi wants to say is that there should be at least one more chapter tonight, and of course there may be a second one in the early morning~

Are you guys, Brother Xuan, awesome?

Ah, I am a lazy dog ​​at ordinary times, but I am a real god of war at the end of the month!!!

Then I just opened the comments and saw a "Xiao Xuanzi who didn't vote for the monthly ticket until it expired"

Tsk tsk tsk, I can only say that people are evil, dears, don't learn from him.

It’s the last two days. If you don’t vote now, there won’t be any more. Wouldn’t it be nice to buy a quilt for Xiao Xuanzi under the tree hole?

Um?

215. Extravagant Hope

"Well, what about you, Uncle Murong? Are you still awake so late? ... Is there something wrong? ..."

I have to say that Xiao Xianyu is quite smart. Seeing that the other party's attention was always on him, in order to prevent being exposed, he directly threw the question to the other party.

"Hmm? Uncle me?"

Hearing Xiao Qinheng's question, Murong Xuan smiled very naturally, then reached out and gently rubbed the boy's head, and responded

"Haha, I'm a little embarrassed to say this. Uncle forgot to eat dinner when he was busy working this afternoon. Didn't you wake up hungry and sneak into the kitchen to find something to eat?"

"Go, go to the kitchen?"

After hearing the other party's reply, Xiao Qinheng didn't quite understand the situation.

Uncle Murong in front of me said that he suddenly woke up from his sleep and was going downstairs to find something to eat...

But I just saw him coming out of my sister's room?

Uncle, why did he lie?

Xiao Qinheng paused for a moment, then hurriedly asked

"Then, what about mom? Is mom awake too? Should I ask her to get up and make some more food for uncle?"

Hearing this, Murong Xuan waved his hands in panic and said with a smile

"It's okay, it's okay. I just came out of the room and I tried not to disturb Liu'er! She has been busy for a long time today and it's very tiring. It's time for her to have a good rest."

"Haha, Xiao Qin, you have to keep uncle's secret about his cheating today, otherwise uncle will be embarrassed..."

Murong Xuan smiled bitterly and rubbed the boy's cheek affectionately, hoping that he would not tell anyone what happened tonight.
