Ivan said these things that would sound a little embarrassing, but he didn't want to delve into all the connotations of the sentence.

If you dig deeper, the meaning of many words that you wanted to express at the beginning may change invisibly and be misinterpreted.

At the same time, Ivan felt that the child in front of him was still quite young, and he should not have a deep understanding of the impermanence of the world.

The meaning of this is nothing more than wanting him to buy something to eat, without mixing other emotions, anyway, Ivan thinks so.

As for how this kid can comprehend this meaning, it's not something that Ivan can manage, it depends on the individual.

When Ivan had finished speaking, he reached out to pat the boy on the shoulder, before he could breathe a sigh of relief.

However, as a gesture of encouragement and permission, Ivan's face gradually calmed down, and things were going according to expectations.

The boy listened very carefully to what Ivan said, but still did not raise his head during this time, and listened quite seriously.

It's just that the boy's posture and movements all the time give people a feeling of inferiority, and Ivan doesn't like this feeling very much.

Gradually, the boy clasped his hands together and placed all the coins in his palms, as if he were holding something very sacred.

Ivan was in a trance for a while, this was obviously just a few copper coins, in the palace, even in the imperial city, few people would use such a thing as copper coins. People sometimes don't look at it with the right eyes, but it is so important to the boy.

Sure enough, for people who don't have money, money is the sky, money is more important than anything, maybe even higher than their body.

In front of a person who has no money, if they have to talk about ideals and beliefs, how great and noble their beliefs are, it is all empty to them.

It's all empty talk, to put it bluntly, it's big talk, empty talk that doesn't make any sense, and there is no other theory that stands up in front of the poor.

The boy hadn't had time to put the copper coins in his clothes, and Ivan's attention was not focused for a while.

Ivan was thinking about whether he was giving less, and whether he needed to go back to the room and give him a little more, but his hand was already falling.

The direction in which the hand fell was just above the boy's left shoulder, and Ivan's outstretched right hand, which he was more accustomed to using to put on his shoulder.

But just as the palm of the hand fell and landed on the boy's shoulder, the boy and Ivan had physical contact through the clothes for the first time. After feeling the unfamiliar temperature belonging to Ivan on his shoulder, the boy's first reaction was to quickly step over and dodge.

Ivan's hand was only steady for a second, maybe not even a second, and then it quickly fell into the air.

The failure of his right hand made Ivan come back to his senses immediately, I don't know what happened, obviously he was still on his shoulder a second ago.

Ivan even thought that the boy should not have taken the money and ran away without saying a word, then the boy was really bold.

also proved in disguise that he was very patient, and he had to wait until now, but he didn't have any ambition, so he only had a few copper coins.

This idea was quickly rejected, as the boy's body could still be seen within Ivan's line of sight.

He just shifted his position, and the boy's movements were nothing more than not wanting Ivan's hand to be on his shoulder, obviously.

This sudden action made both parties a little embarrassed for a while, but it was obvious that the boy was more nervous and panicked.

It was obvious that he didn't like this movement, or that this kind of communication that required physical movements was Ivan's own fault.

Even if Ivan comprehended that this action might contain other meanings, he didn't want to be too surprised.

The expression on Ivan's face has not changed much, and at the same time, his voice and attitude have not been affected by it, and the overall is not bad.

It's just that Ivan wanted to affirm his thoughts, and couldn't help but ask the boy lightly, what he remembered from this action.

"Don't you really like people putting their hands on your shoulders? If so, then I remember, and I promise not to do it again. I apologize to you if I scared you, after all, it was my action that was too sudden, I'm sorry. ”

Before Ivan could react, he took the initiative to apologize to him, indicating his attitude and meaning, and he didn't want to have a misunderstanding.

I didn't want anything, both of them were boys, and Ivan couldn't have been mad and have any thoughts about him.

The boy looked a little surprised, and judging from his facial expressions, it was clear that he was unprepared for Ivan's words and actions.

The boy didn't expect Ivan to say such a thing, and he didn't expect Ivan to simply want to put his hand on his shoulder. It may be because I was beaten by others when I was wandering and begging before, and I was very afraid of this kind of action, and I had a psychological shadow.

That's why the boy chooses to keep a certain distance from others, that is, the sense of security that the boy needs to keep in his heart.

The boy didn't want others to get too close to him, whether it was out of malice or good intentions, and he didn't need to get close to him for no reason.

It's just that what the boy didn't expect was Ivan's surprisingly good attitude, and even the last sentence of sorry could be heard in his heart.

Ivan was very serious, but the boy was a little flustered, he didn't think to ask Ivan to apologize for the matter, it was his own problem.

Ivan shouldn't be involved, Ivan gave money and he was just a good heart, and the boy was even more anxious, and he didn't know what to say.

The boy seemed to be more panicked than when he had dodged Ivan before, and he clutched the copper coins in his hand tightly, without the slightest intention of letting go. It's not that Ivan's fear that he will suddenly ask for the money back, but that he won't let him do things, or that he doesn't trust himself anymore.

After listening to Ivan's words, it didn't even take a few seconds for the boy to raise his head directly, he was the one who should apologize.

In fact, from the bottom of his heart, the boy still wanted to see what Ivan looked like, and he wanted to see what such an approachable person looked like.

Just be able to show his mind, I hope Ivan doesn't misunderstand himself, this is an unnecessary misunderstanding, the boy thought clearly.

If he didn't make it clear at this time, Ivan might guess, and the boy's inaction would create a gap between the two of them.

"No, that's not the case, Childe, you don't have to apologize. It's my own problem, I'm not used to physical contact with people. It's not your fault, it's me, don't think so. In short, I am the one who should apologize. ”

The boy looked a little hurried, and when Ivan looked at his face, he took in the boy's true emotions.

It was also at the same moment that Ivan completely saw the boy's appearance, and it was not too much to describe him as disgraced.

The gray-faced boy is indeed like a child who has no father, no mother's love, and no one wants.
