At the top of the stairs, there was no movement except for the sound of breathing coming from the mouths of the two people.

Chi Xiaoxiao stayed for a long time, silently moved to the side, and walked towards the stairs with steps.

Step by step.

Soon he walked past the woman.

When passing by the other party, Chi Xiaoxiao seemed to be a little curious, and secretly glanced at the side, but because of her hair and her head down, she didn't see the other party's appearance clearly.

It's just that from the other party's dress, it feels a little familiar.

Seem...... Where have I seen it.

Soon, Chi Xiaoxiao passed past the woman, turned a corner, and continued to walk upstairs, and the footsteps gradually became smaller.

Until...... Can't hear it at all.

However, this situation did not last long, and then the footsteps that had just disappeared suddenly sounded, and after a while, Chi Xiaoxiao returned again.

I want to pretend I can't see it......

"Are you alright?"

Carrying a snack, she leaned over to the woman's figure, casually placing the snack on the steps of the stairs, and holding the other person's shoulders with both hands.

Perhaps it was her move that caused the woman who originally lowered her head to slowly raise her head at this moment.

It was also at the moment when she raised her head that Chi Xiaoxiao knew why she felt that the person in front of her had a familiar feeling.

The other party lives upstairs on his own.

We met a few times by accident, but there was no communication.

His black hair was scattered, and he looked a little haggard from the point of view of his face, perhaps because he was not covered by makeup, and he looked very in a very poor state of mind.

His face was also a little pale.

It was also when the other party raised his head that Chi Xiaoxiao found the other party looking at him in his eyes......

It didn't seem to be angry.

“……”

Chi Xiaoxiao's inquiry did not get a reply from the other party, which made her ask again after being stunned for a while.

"Are you feeling unwell?"

“……”

The woman didn't speak, but stared at Chi Xiaoxiao in front of her with those eyes for a while, and after a long time, she nodded silently.

He opened his mouth and said in a somewhat weak voice.

"My head is a little dizzy......

"Then I'll help you upstairs."

"Hmmm......"

There was no refusal either, and the woman was clearly well aware that in her current state of mind she could not return home on her own.

Therefore, he did not refuse Chi Xiaoxiao's kindness.

After getting the response, Chi Xiaoxiao immediately reached out and grabbed the other party's arm, but as a girl, she is still the kind of girl who doesn't exercise often, obviously her physical strength is not strong, and because the other party is a little weak, she didn't help the other party up from the steps for the first time.

After a few more attempts, he succeeded in helping the other party up.

Even so, she couldn't forget the bag of snacks that she had put aside.

Reaching out and taking it, he used this somewhat laborious posture to help the other party upstairs little by little.

The floor that could have been reached quickly, it took the two of them several times longer to arrive, and when they came to the door, Chi Xiaoxiao looked at her and took out the key from her bag.

When she watched the door open, she prepared to leave.

"That'...... I'll go home first......"

Before she could finish speaking, the woman who had just opened the door suddenly leaned against the door frame, which startled Chi Xiaoxiao, who was talking, and hurriedly reached out to support the other party.

Fortunately, her reaction was timely, and the other party was not hurt much.

This made Chi Xiaoxiao, who was just about to leave, unable to relax for a while, supported the other party, and said with some concern.

"I'll help you into the house first."

"Good...... Thank you ......."

"No thanks."

After that, Chi Xiaoxiao helped the other party into the house.

The moment she entered the house, her eyes subconsciously looked at the scene inside the house.

Very ordinary house, similar to my own home.

At this point, Chi Xiaoxiao didn't watch too much, helped the other party to walk towards the bedroom little by little, and after wasting some strength, he still put the other party safely on the bed.

It was also at the moment of contact with the bed that a long exhalation came out of the woman's mouth.

Looks like...... She's a lot more comfortable that way.

Chi Xiaoxiao, who was standing aside and carrying snacks, originally wanted to say something to leave, but looking at the person in front of him who was panting for breath, he looked a little uncomfortable......

In the end, I couldn't say it.

Instead, he spoke.

"I'll pour you a glass of water."

With that, he walked out of the bedroom.

But when she walked around the house for most of the time, she didn't find any traces of the teapot, and it seemed that the person didn't like to boil water very much.

After looking for a while, after making sure that she couldn't find it, Chi Xiaoxiao looked a little anxious.

Suddenly, she thought of the drink she had bought when she was shopping for snacks......

【Master Li Jasmine Tea】

Although it cost her three dollars, she ......

Gritting her teeth, Chi Xiaoxiao only hesitated for a while, and then took out the bottle of [Master Li Jasmine Tea] from the plastic bag she was carrying

Once again, I went back to the house.

After unscrewing the cap, he lifted the other person and aimed the mouth of the bottle at her mouth.

Perhaps she was really thirsty, and after taking the first sip, the woman did not immediately deflat, but grunted for a long time, and by the time she put down the bottle, most of the liquid in it had disappeared.

Taking the drink that had been drunk more than half from the other party's hand, Chi Xiaoxiao looked at the bedside table on the side, and then wanted to put the bottle on it.

But when she reached for it, her eyes were drawn to the photograph on the bedside table.

A photo of a family of four.

But...... Looks a little weird.

Compared to the smiling others, the woman in the photo is clearly a little unsociable.

Looks...... Not so happy.

Of course, from the appearance of the woman in the photo, Chi Xiaoxiao also recognized her identity at a glance, which was the person lying on the bed at the moment.

People who live upstairs in their homes.

"Thank you......"

The sound of thanks from behind him made Chi Xiaoxiao, who was staring at the photo, come back to his senses.

Hurriedly turned his head to look at the woman beside him who had already gotten up and sat down.

smiled.

"No thanks."

"That...... Your drink money ......"

"This? No, I still have it at home! ”

Hearing the other party mention the drink, Chi Xiaoxiao hurriedly excused herself, and then her slightly ordinary face bloomed with the most beautiful smile at this moment.

"If you feel uncomfortable, I recommend going to the hospital for a check-up, it may be low blood sugar, I sometimes get dizzy after squatting for a long time."

"Really......"

"Uh-huh, then...... If nothing else, I'll go home first? ”

"Hmmm......"

"Then I'm leaving......"

Looking at the woman who suddenly became silent, Chi Xiaoxiao turned her head and walked outside the house after saying this.

She hadn't taken two steps when she suddenly sensed something, and turned her head to look at the photo on the bedside table.

Gaze...... looked at the girl in the photo.

The brow furrowed slightly.

I don't know why...... She always felt that the little girl in the photo was somewhat familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.

Where is it...... Have you seen it?

After thinking about it for a long time, Chi Xiaoxiao didn't expect to see it somewhere, and then she didn't continue to stay, and turned around and left this place.

With the sound of the door shut, she was once again the only one left in the room.

Sitting on the edge of the bed like this, she stared silently ahead as if she were in a daze.

It didn't take long for her to move her gaze.

I looked at the picture on the bedside table.

Looking at the photo, the two children who used to be ......

And......

I loved my husband dearly.

Silence for a long time.

Stealing incense
