Zhao Bai'an observed from the side that the girl didn't seem to talk much, and there were some children of her size next to her, greeting her. The girl is a picture of unwilling to deal with people and refuse to be thousands of miles away.

Zhao Bai'an looked at the girl and felt very strange in his heart, because the girl's age seemed to be in the fourth or fifth grade of primary school, and it should be the time to be lively and cheerful and like to make friends.

But in the girl's eyes, there was an incomprehensible emotion.

Zhao Bai'an didn't know why, looking at the girl in front of him, he always had a feeling of déjà vu, but he couldn't say it.

There was not much lively brilliance in the girl's eyes, Zhao Bai'an was curious about the emotion in the girl's eyes, anyway, she couldn't leave this room at this time, so she planned to approach the girl slowly, and wanted to talk to the girl and say hello when there was no one. She also wanted to take the opportunity to ask the girl why her emotions were like this, but as soon as she remembered the state she was in just now, all thoughts were canceled instantly.

Thinking that her state did not allow contact with anyone, she still chose to stand in place and observe quietly.

As time passed, everyone in the party was chatting about a variety of topics, from astronomy and geography to family trivialities. From the children's various learnings, when it comes to firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, all kinds of topics have become the center of communication after tea and dinner.

Adults of different ages sat in different circles, and although they were all at the same big table, they were divided into several factions.

Zhao Bai'an, as a bystander, stayed aside and watched quietly, this kind of family gathering is almost the same scene, at most there are some differences in cuisine between different regions, but the topics of conversation are always so similar.

She wasn't really interested in what the grown-ups were talking about, and her attention was still on the girl who was a little out of place. From time to time, she glanced at the girl, and she found that the girl had not really been in the center of the family gathering from beginning to end, and that she had been sitting in a corner.

The way the girl behaved was in stark contrast to the current atmosphere, and the elders at the family gathering seemed to be happy. But she didn't look very happy, and even a little scared.

Zhao Bai'an secretly wondered in her heart, and suddenly she found that the girl actually stood up from the stool and began to move her steps to her side.

She was in a trance for a moment, unsure if she was part of their space.

She wasn't sure if the girl had actually seen herself, or if it was just a coincidence that the girl had come this way.

Zhao Bai'an fell into deep confusion, and the girl suddenly stood in front of her at some point: "Sister, what are you doing?" Why do you keep looking at me? ”

As soon as the little girl opened her mouth, Zhao Bai'an found that her age was younger than she had guessed, perhaps because her top-notch height compared to her peers made her look older, but her immature voice could not be hidden at this time.

Zhao Baian subconsciously asked the girl: "Little sister, can you see me?" ”

The girl asked strangely: "Sister, why do you ask that?" Why can't I see you? ”

Zhao Bai'an didn't know how to answer the moment she was asked by the girl, she was speechless for a while, it seemed that compared to the girl, she was more strange in this space, and in desperation, she had to change the topic.

Zhao Baian casually asked the girl: "Little sister, why don't you sit with everyone?" There are a lot of kids there, don't you play with them? ”

Zhao Bai'an actually made an unintentional mistake, she asked like this just out of instinctive psychological curiosity or just a conversation technique in the face of children, she didn't think much about anything.

But the girl's face suddenly changed dramatically, she was not very happy and a little melancholy, but suddenly it became a cloud.

Zhao Bai'an looked at it from the sidelines and felt incredible, this child's face became even faster than the weather in June.

She looked at the girl in front of her, and secretly guessed in her heart that there must be a story in this girl that she didn't know.

Zhao Bai'an is not a gossip person on weekdays, but at this time she has a sense of mission in the dark, she stretched out her hand and gently took the girl's hand, the girl was stunned for a moment, but she did not refuse.

Zhao Bai'an looked inside the room and found a quiet place in the corner of the living room.

She led the girl slowly to the place, found two stools, sat down with the girl face to face, and after making sure that the surroundings were quiet enough, she repeated the old words: "Little sister, if you have any unhappy or depressed things, you can share them with your sister, and I am willing to be your listener." ”

The girl was silent for a moment, frowned, and then said slowly: "I don't like family dinners, I don't like these uncles. And as long as the adults get together, all we talk about is our children's grades, and my mom and dad always like to compare me to others......"

"Sister, you know what? After every family dinner, my parents would immediately enroll me in an interest class. They never asked me what I liked, they always looked at what other kids were learning and I wasn't! ”

After Zhao Baian heard this, she finally understood why the girl was unhappy, and she couldn't help but recall her childhood.

Indeed, what the girl said was something that almost all children of the same age would experience, in fact, she was like this when she was young.

At that time, the adults, although not as serious as the girl said, could not help but compare their children with the children of neighbors and friends, and at the same time would help several families to discuss together, and enroll the children in the same interest class.

Parents seem to be stunned, and their concern for their children is only on the comparison of grades.

What impressed Zhao Baian the most was that once when she was a child, she actually learned six records in one day. At that time, she was just nine years old, and there seemed to be not much difference between her age and the current girl's age. It's just that fortunately, her grades have always been very good, and she has been even more top-notch since elementary school, so she has never taken interest classes or cram schools since junior high school.

Zhao Bai'an still thinks back that at that time, it was a nightmare that was difficult for her to get rid of and shake off.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Zhao Baian is now so repulsive to sports and this feeling of running around.

A sense of sympathy rose for the girl in front of her, and a thought suddenly crossed her mind.

Zhao Bai'an looked at the scenery outside the window, the green grass and blue sky, laughter, birds chirping, and butterflies flying wildly. It seems to be very lively, but it is completely different from the excitement in the house.

She took the girl's hand again: "Little sister, big sister will take you out for a spin and relax, okay?" ”

The look of joy and joy on the girl's face flashed, and a look of yearning for freedom appeared in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by disappointment.

The girl responded to Zhao Bai'an: "But Mom and Dad won't let me." ”

Zhao Baian said to the girl with a mysterious face: "Then we will do it secretly, okay?" ”

The girl fell silent, and Zhao Bai'an guessed in her heart that the girl might not believe in herself, so she raised her hand to reassure the girl.

"I'm not a bad person, I promise you, I'll send you back intact and safe!"

The girl responded with a smile: "Sister is not, I just have never done anything behind my parents' backs, I am a little scared and a little worried." ”
