Chapter 042: An Unspeakable Past

Chen Xiaoran had never seen a smile that could be so carefree and as warm as the sun. I couldn't help but look down at the little girl on the reef.

Her long eyelashes formed a small shadow under her eyes, her closed eyes were still rolling slightly, and her thin lips were crimson as she smiled.

Chen Shiran was very curious about what kind of beautiful dream could make her smile so bright in her sleep.

The quiet seaside was sparsely populated, and Chen stood aside and watched for a long time, until those eyes slowly opened.

The sleepy eyes seemed to be a little confused, and Chen Shiran blinked as he looked at the top of his head.

Chen Shiran thought that this little girl was too funny, so he deliberately teased her and asked, "Do you have a boyfriend?" ”

The little girl shook her head stupidly: "No." ”

Chen Shiran smiled and said, "You have it now." ”

He leaned down and pressed a kiss on her lips. That kiss was green and pure, without any desire, but it made Chen Jingran feel extraordinarily wonderful.

Thinking of this, Chen Shiran suddenly chuckled helplessly, holding Gu Xixi's hand and covering his left cheek: "You gave me a slap at that time." ”

Gu Xixi laughed: "Why are you holding such a grudge, you still remember it after so many years." As he spoke, Gu Xixi leaned forward and kissed Chen Shiran the left cheek: "Is this considered compensation?"

That year, Gu Xixi was fifteen years old, and Chen Shiran was eighteen years old, which was the age of youth and ignorance.

Looking at Chen Shiran's deep but smiling eyes, Gu Xixi sighed: "Lonely, unconsciously, we have known each other for ten years." ”

Chen Shiran smiled lightly: "Yes, it's been ten years." ”

"Have I ever told you why I ended up on that beach? Gu Xixi asked with a smile. But it is not difficult to see a hint of bitterness in the smile.

Chen Shiran shook his head: "Why?"

Chen Shiran was also very curious at that time, because the seaside was in a remote area, and there were only a few families nearby who made a living by fishing and selling fish. To outsiders, the environment is beautiful and like a paradise, but in fact, most of the residents living there are living in poverty.

And Gu Xixi, who was young and should have been in school, appeared there, but Gu Xixi's face and dress did not look like a fisherman's daughter who had lived by the sea since she was a child.

It seems that with Chen Shiran's why, her thoughts returned to the seaside ten years ago.

Gu Xixi smiled a little bitterly after being silent for a long time, and jumped off the fence to face the dark and quiet river.

"You know, I don't have a dad. ”

As soon as he said the first sentence, Chen Shiran hugged Gu Xixi in his arms from behind: "Don't say it." ”

Gu Xixi refused, and continued: "Since I was a child, I have often been bullied by other children, and they all say that I am a wild child without a father. At that time, I was young and ignorant, so I cried and asked my mother why other children had fathers but I didn't. My mom started beating me angrily, and then when I asked if I was in a hurry, she just sat there crying. ”

Gu Xixi's voice was very calm, as if she was just telling a story that had nothing to do with herself, but Chen Shiran's heart was pinched by her.

"When I was a child, I was very stubborn and naughty, and I used to get into trouble and contradict my mother, but the only thing was that I couldn't see my mother shed tears. As soon as my mother shed tears, I didn't know what to do, so I immediately knelt in front of my mother and said that I would never ask my father about it again. But my mother cried even more sadly.

That night, we sat there and cried for half the night, and finally my mom told me that my dad died before I was even born. At that time, I didn't feel sad to know that my dad was just a noun in my eyes. Because for so many years, my uncle has always cared for me, and in my eyes, my uncle is closer than my father. ”

"Is it Gu Xiaoyu's father?" asked Chen Silent Ran.

Gu Xixi nodded: "Hmm." The conditions of my uncle's family are not very good, but he will always want to give me a piece of food, and often use his meager salary to help me and my mother.

I was young at the time, and I didn't understand these people's feelings, but I only knew that my uncle was good to me. But then one time I went to my uncle's house to play, and before I entered the door, I heard Gu Xiaoyu's cry. She said that my uncle knew that he loved that wild child, and he wanted to give that wild child what good things didn't give to his daughter, but he just wanted to buy a new pair of shoes for his daughter and gave them to that wild child, so it was better to be the father of that wild child. ”

Gu Xixi smiled: "I looked at the new shoes on my feet, and of course I understood that the wild child in Gu Xiaoyu's mouth was talking about me." I leaned out of the window and looked into the room. My aunt hugged Gu Xiaoyu, who was crying, was also shedding tears, crying and saying some ugly things, scolding me, scolding my mother and my uncle. ”

The arm holding Gu Xixi became tighter, and Gu Xixi could sense the powerful heartbeat behind him, and the warm breath he had in his ear.
