Chapter 0067: Fate

When Natsuki woke up, she found herself lying in an unfamiliar environment, and she had changed into some fat but clean clothes.

In a small house made of logs, it seems that even the furniture in the house was made by the owner of the house. It's a little rough, but it's warm to those who see it.

Through the small glass window, you can clearly see everything in the yard, the withered flowers, the simple cool table, the stove made of clay, and the large bamboo forest that surrounds the wooden house.

Natsuki breathed a sigh of relief as she watched her luggage be put aside.

It seems that someone with a heart has picked her up.

She got out of bed and walked out of the wooden door.

The sun in the courtyard was warm and comfortable.

She sat quietly on the wooden steps, looking up, feeling the tranquility.

"Girl, are you awake?"

At this time, an old couple returned, carrying baskets full of firewood and small axes in their hands. Seeing that the girl woke up, a kind and joyful smile appeared on her wrinkled face.

"Hmm." Xia Muxi ran forward, took off the basket from the couple, and took it to the stove. Then, somewhat shyly, he walked up to the couple. "Grandparents, did you bring me here?"

"Yes, my wife and I are the grave keepers of the cemetery, because we are old and have a little money in our hands, so we plan to return to this home, and the old couple will accompany each other to the end. Last night was the last shift we were standing on, so before leaving, we made one last round of the cemetery, and we didn't expect to find you. The old man took a big kettle, took a sip, and continued.

"Child, why did you run to the cemetery alone at such a late hour, and it was still raining so heavily, aren't you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid."

The old grandmother sat by the sink washing the vegetables, and Xia Muxi stepped forward and silently took over the things in the hands of the old man.

"Child, are you feeling unwell?"

"No, I'm in good spirits right now." She said with a smile, then took the washed vegetables to the stove and prepared to make a fire for cooking.

"Kid, don't get it, go to the house and rest, these grandmothers will do it."

"Grandma, my craftsmanship is not bad, so I want you and Grandpa to try it."

"Then let's do it, you take charge of the spoon, I'm in charge of lighting the fire, and I'm not tired of doing it together."

"Hmm!"

A very small cold table, with two vegetarian dishes and three bowls of rice.

In the stove, boiling water is bubbling.

"What's your name, kid?"

"My name is Xia Muxi, grandparents, you can just call me Mu Xi."

"Old man, the more I look at this child, the more I like it, the food is delicious, the person is beautiful and smart, and he is very well-behaved and obedient."

"I'll tell you the truth, I like this kid very much."

"Grandparents, you live here, won't the family worry?" Here, it's completely isolated from the world, and the two old people are also old, in case there is an accident...

"Mu Xi, actually, we don't have any relatives except each other." When he said this, the old man still had a smile on his face.

"Grandparents, what about your children?"

"I was killed, when I was twenty years old, I suddenly told us that I was going to participate in an important mission, and I remember that it seemed like more than half a year later, when we received news of our son again, it was a notice of his death, and we didn't even know where he was buried." The old man spoke calmly, as if he were talking about someone else's business.

"I'm sorry."

"It's been so long, we've long been relieved, and we're open. The old man and I have also lived with the pride of our son until now, and there is nothing sad about it, because one day, we will be reunited in another world. โ€

"Grandparents, if you don't mind, I am willing to be your relative, and from now on, I will be filial to you."

"Silly boy, we've only just met, and it's not worth your time doing so much for us. We understand your heart. โ€

"I'm serious!"

"Okay, okay, obedient."

Xia Muxi didn't speak, she knew why the old couple would refuse, because after all, such words from the mouth of an eighteen-year-old child were indeed far-fetched.

If she has the ability...

After eating, Xia Muxi was pushed into the room by the old man to rest.

Through the small window, Xia Muxi looked at the backs of the two pairs leaning together, as well as the full head of white hair, sour nose, and tears, rolling in his eyes.

I really want to stay here forever and stay with them all the time. Otherwise, wouldn't grandparents be lonely?

Doing the work of grave keepers, perhaps they are also looking forward to the day when their son's epitaph will appear in front of their eyes.

Will they be reunited in another world?

Listening to it already makes people want to cry...

Forget it, spend more time with them.

Anyway, she had nowhere else to go.

For two days, Xia Muxi has been staying in the cabin to accompany the old man.

Doing housework, chopping wood, cooking, whatever she can do, she takes care of it all.

Although the old man really likes this child, if this child stays here, the family will definitely be anxious.

"Muxi, have you been in touch with your family?"

โ€œยทยท Not yet. The hand that was chopping wood paused slightly.

"Well, if you don't reach out to them, your family will have a hard time finding you. This small cabin is very remote and difficult for ordinary people to find. โ€

"Well, I'll contact them when the meal is ready in a moment."

"That's how good you are, no matter where you are, remember to tell your family about you and don't let them worry."

"yes, I see."

After the meal was cooked, Natsuki returned to the cabin and took out his phone from his bag.

The phone's screen was all shattered, and there was no response at all.

Looks like I'm really going back.

In the afternoon, Xia Muxi cleaned everything in the place again, and the fire was also full of tall firewood.

She picked up her bag and carried a small suitcase in her hand.

"Grandparents, thank you for taking care of me, but I have to go back."

"Silly boy, we are just a passer-by in your life, but the real place has been waiting for you, hurry back."

"I'll miss you." Xia Muxi hugged the old man, although he was very reluctant, but after all, he still had to separate.

In life, those who appear inadvertently, even if they save you from the pain of all evil, are destined to be just a pass. The moment you get married, it will disappear quickly.

But one day, the fate that was forged will meet again in another way.

When she was a little embarrassed, disappeared for two whole days, and suddenly appeared in front of the man. The man held her hand tightly and fell to her knees weakly.

"Autumn Dawn, what's wrong with you?" Delicately small face, with a sweet smile. She crouched down and tilted her head to look at the man.

The stubble has grown again.

She stretched out her small, slender hand, wanting to touch the man's more haggard face.

Sure enough, the first person I want to see is you.

Sister Su Ya, I'm sorry, can you forgive me for my willfulness a little? Because I know that if I don't show up again, this man will definitely be worried.

Even if... It's just that out of that obligation, I don't want to see him worried.

"Natsuki Nozomi!" The man suddenly roared, "Where the hell have you been!" โ€

This time, she was not frightened by the roar, nor did she flinch. She looked at him.

"I just suddenly wanted to go out for a walk, and when I came back here, I never had a good time going out to play, so I just... I got a little lost in my play. I'm sorry to worry you. โ€

"What about mobile phones? Why can't it be reached? Why didn't you tell me? โ€

"I accidentally broke my phone. Why didn't I tell youยทยท Didn't I just say that I forgot a little bit because I was playing, so I forgot about it. โ€

The long arms finally hugged her tightly in his arms!

"Natsuki, you must not suddenly disappear again! Absolutely not! โ€

The man sniffed her greedily and hugged her with his arms, as if to rub her into his body!

The girl frowned slightly in pain, but did not struggle in his arms to leave.

Because, her embrace of him, her chest to him, and her body temperature to him, she has long been so attached to him that she can't refuse.

The two hugged each other for a long time, so long that they forgot the existence of the people around them.

"At the end of the autumn dawn, let me go, everyone else is watching." The girl patted the man on the back, no matter how much she liked this man's arms, but the more and more eyes gathered around her, she really couldn't ignore it anymore.

"Leave them alone." The man didn't care at all, his arms still wrapped around her tightly.

"Okay, shall we go home first? In fact, I have been in a hurry to come back, I haven't eaten yet, and I haven't even taken a shower once in the past two days, and my body is very uncomfortable. โ€

"Didn't you really take a shower? But... It's fragrant. โ€

It's really amazing!

The man's breath sprayed on Natsuki's skin, tickling.

A chuckle was heard from the man, and then, the arms like iron hoops finally let go of her body and took her hand instead.

The small suitcase was carried easily in his other hand.

"Let's go home."

A low-key luxury villa where the man helps the girl pack her luggage. And the girl, who was taking a comfortable bath in the bathroom.

Looking at the poor outfit, the man's heart ached faintly.

Natsuki Xi, is this how you plan to run away from home?

Qiu Limo took out the posthumous photo in the suitcase and put it on the bedside.

Then, the small wooden box with the combination lock on it caught his attention.

At this time, Xia Muxi had just come out of the bathroom and saw the man holding the small wooden box in his hand. She immediately ran up and snatched the wooden box from the man's hand! Then, hold it tightly to your chest as if you were treating your most beloved treasure.

Her action, as well as the overly nervous face, made the man even more curious about this small wooden box.
