Chapter 7: A Heart Warmed by Marshmallows

Gu Xiaole responded in such a daze, and was taken by Qiao Li to the most lively international amusement park in City B the next day.

The weather on this day was as good as the first day of school in September.

It's even better than that.

Look at the weather, it's really refreshing.

The sky was filled with the enticing aroma of popcorn, hot dogs, and marshmallows, not the rich smell of books.

Gu Xiaole looked at the marshmallow tree outlined into a big tree, and his eyes reflected strings of colorful marshmallows.

He looked down and reached for his pocket.

It was empty, except for a neatly folded red banknote wrapped in the palm of his hand, soaked in sweat.

This is the pocket money he has saved.

After Grandpa Gu left, their family lost almost all their financial resources. If it weren't for the fact that grandma still had some old friendships and used them to fight for Gu Xiaole's tuition, Gu Xiaole felt that he was sleeping on the street now.

So after Grandpa Gu died, the sensible Gu Xiaole gave up the dreams that made him willing to open up his silence and chase it with all his might.

These dreams would not have been possible without funding.

Gu Xiaole, who was well versed in these, locked them in his heart and precipitated them in his dreams.

This hundred yuan was saved by helping Grandma Gu with housework before.

Now because of Joli, he hasn't done housework for a long time, and he hasn't earned pocket money for a long time.

When Gu Xiaole was immersed in his own memories, a string of blue marshmallows suddenly appeared in his field of vision.

Gu Xiaole looked up.

Jolly took two bunches of marshmallows, ate one herself, and handed the other in front of her.

"The owner is the owner, how can you ask the guests to pay out of their own pockets." Jolly took a bite of the marshmallow and looked at him with a smile, "Taste it, it's sweet." ”

Gu Xiaole's hand touching the red banknote was tight, tight, and the corners of his mouth squirmed, as if he wanted to say something, but stopped at his lips.

Jolly saw his hesitation and simply shoved the marshmallow into his hand.

"The teacher was so kind to me." Gu Xiaole lowered his head, and his voice was as light as the wind like catkins.

"Because you are my student, it is a teacher's responsibility to care about the growth of each student." Jory grinned, "Eat the marshmallows, they'll melt later." ”

Gu Xiaole nodded, stretched out his hand and clenched the marshmallow.

Before he could take a bite, his eyes glanced at a corner and paused slightly.

There is no one on the corner, covered in grass.

Gu Xiaole saw a furry head. He took a step forward and saw clearly that it was a little girl. The girl looked dirty, and she cowered there, her hands clasped around her knees, and her eyes were red.

She seemed to have just cried.

Gu Xiaole jumped away from the lively crowd, pushed aside the grass, squatted down, and handed the marshmallow over: "Give it to you." ”

The little girl looked up in a daze, and dimly saw a bunch of marshmallows, and behind the marshmallows, the beautiful young face.

"Mom told Kiki that Kiki can't eat strangers' things." The little girl shook her head and smiled and rejected Gu Xiaole's marshmallow, "Thank you, big brother." ”

"I'm not a bad person." Gu Xiaole stuffed the marshmallow into her hand and squatted down to meet her line of sight. He hesitated for a moment, then asked softly in his voice, "This is an international amusement park, why are you here?" ”

The little girl looked at the marshmallow in her hand, her eyes glazed.

Hearing Gu Xiaole's words, her mouth pursed, and her eyes turned red again.

"Mom said to let Kiki wait for her here. But Kiki waited for three days, but she still didn't see her mother. The little girl said, bowing her head and crying.

Gu Xiaole was silent.

He saw that there seemed to be something in the hat behind the little girl.

Glancing at the little girl, Gu Xiaole stood up cautiously, stretched out his hand to take out the things in the little girl's hood, and put them in the palm of his hand to take a closer look.

It turned out to be a letter.

At this time, Jolly also walked over.

Gu Xiaole handed the letter to Qiao Li, Qiao Li was stunned, and after opening it, she also fell silent.

Then Qiao Li put the letter away, put it in her pocket, squatted down and reached out to gently stroke the little girl's head: "Little Angel is such an obedient girl, will she bear to make her mother sad?" ”

Angel?

Her name is Angel......

Gu Xiaole's eyes deepened.

In my memory, a figure suddenly slipped through my mind.

The little girl felt the warmth of Qiao Li's palm, and shook her head crying: "Kiki listens to her mother the most, Kiki will not make her mother sad." ”

Qiao Li continued to stroke the little girl's head, and her voice was as steady as the blue eyes and the fragrance of bauhinia, gentle and gentle: "Good girl." Your mom went a long way away and won't come back until a long time later. Your mom has something to tell you. ”

The little girl's eyes immediately widened, and Qiao Li was reflected in her eyes, as well as Gu Xiaole behind her.

"Your mother said she was going to watch Angel grow up from afar. When Angel is brave enough to take the first step alone, she will give you a gift. On that day, she will also be back. So, Angel don't cry, don't let her mother down. ”

At this moment, Gu Xiaole found that Qiao Li's temperament had changed.

She seemed to be the mother of the little girl in front of her, gentle and kind, warm to the extreme.

Probably feeling this too, the little girl immediately wiped away her tears.

"Kiki will definitely be obedient." She looked at Jolly, her mouth squirming steadily.

Qiao Li smiled and touched her head: "Would you like to go with your sister, my sister will take you to the police uncle." Then my uncle will take you to a big, big yard where there will be many, many children playing with you. ”

The little girl's eyes flickered.

She was moved.

But she's also hesitating.

"If you think your sister is a bad person, let this little brother take you there. His name is Gu Xiaole, and he is studying in Class A of the six-year aristocratic school in City B, so he can play with him when he has time. Jory stroked little Angel's head again.

Xiao Anqi looked at Qiao Li, looked at Gu Xiaole, and nodded slowly.

So, the little girl stood up, stepped forward step by step, and stretched out her hand towards Gu Xiaole.

"Take her and take her." Qiao Li moved her chin to signal Gu Xiaole.

Gu Xiaole looked at Xiao Anqi and remembered himself many years ago in a trance.

Many years ago, I was also separated from my parents.

He slowly stretched out a somewhat cool hand, took Xiao Anqi, turned around and walked towards the nearby police station step by step.

Before leaving, Gu Xiaole glanced back at the amusement park that he hadn't played yet, and then at Qiao Li in front of the amusement park.

Joli kept smiling at herself.

At that moment, Gu Xiaole felt that his heart seemed to become warm.

It's like the warm sun overhead.
