Silence, silence.

Even if there are thousands of words, in the end there is only one sentence,

"Go ahead, I'll take care of myself."

Chu Yunxi knelt down on one knee in front of Xiao Bai and tidied up her trouser legs, wanting to say a lot but turning into silence. He slowly raised his head, and saw a pair of clear eyes with flowing water, everything was already self-evident, and he finally knew.

"Wait for me to ......" got up, but he was speechless.

Xiao Bai's eyes drooped, blinking again and again to force tears back into his eyes, lonely like parting, until the boy disappeared behind the door.

"Don't make me cry again."

……

Eight years ago, Christmas Eve may have been Xiao Bai's first unaccompanied holiday.

The lights outside the window are bright, reflecting the warm colors of the snow, a few couples or pedestrians passing by in a hurry on the street, and the young Xiao Bai can see it by the window. The light mixed with the moonlight spread into the dimly lit living room, where only a Christmas tree shimmered dimly.

"Bad Dad, I don't even answer the phone at any important meeting at Christmas, why didn't my mother go to Stupid Xi's house to accompany Grandma, and she didn't take me there." Xiao Bai propped his chin with his hands and pouted to himself.

After all, she was a little disappointed, after all, she was just a child, and she originally thought it was just a failed family party, but when she was bored and dialed Chu Yunxi's house, everything was not as simple as she thought.

"Ah...... You've got news of Chumu, right!? The phone was instantly connected, and a familiar female voice came out, crying thickly.

Xiao Bai's hand clenched the phone trembled, and a strong uneasiness rose to her heart, she hurriedly asked, "Grandma, it's me, what's wrong with Abba, why does your voice sound sad?" ”

"I didn't ...... It's nothing, little vain, you're lonely at home alone, I'm really embarrassed, and you have to let your mother come here...... Accompany me ......" Chu Mu's wife, who is also Chu Yunxi's mother, Luo Yao barely stopped crying and replied intermittently.

"Why did you talk about Abba's news, didn't Abba go to Los Angeles with Brother Xi to attend the New Year's banquet......" Xiao Bai muttered to himself, suddenly paused and stood up suddenly, "Grandma! Is there something wrong with them, grandma, tell me, where is Brother Xi now......"

As she spoke, tears slid down her smooth side face like pearls with broken threads, how could she be as smart as she still didn't know what happened to the Chu family.

Her Yunxi ......

"Xiao Bai, do you hear it for me to stay at home obediently. Feed? Xiao Bai, don't ......"

The microphone dangling in the air made a lonely sound, and Xiao Bai had already rushed out of the door.

The snow flakes slapped on her face, losing Xiao Bai's direction, she couldn't help but wrap her clothes tightly to resist the cold wind, but her home clothes were still too thin, but she wouldn't stop.

"Miss, where are you going now? Madame ordered you to ...... at home" The young butler's voice was blown away by the wind and snow, and Xiao Bai pushed open the iron door and ran towards a distant place.

Shortness of breath, heavy steps, sweaty hair sticking to the cold and piercing bones on the face, the body has obviously reached the limit but stubbornly refuses to stop, with the stinging pain of the cold wind pouring into her throat, but she can't give up, how can she stop, the person on the other side who she misses this,

Yunxi, Yunxi, where are you?

Chu House.

"Alright...... Luo Yao, calm down, I believe that Chu Mu will come back safely with Yun Xi. The neatly dressed woman sat next to the crying woman with warm tea, and the woman with long brown curly hair and a cold expression was Xiao Bai's mother, Li Meng.

Luo Yao took the teacup and held it in the palm of her hand, her eyes were red and swollen, her eyes rose and fell, and she choked for a long time before replying, "I'm sorry...... If something like this happens at home, you won't be able to take care of Xiaobai. ”

"Whatever you say, it's all a family," Li Meng said and got up again to call the bodyguards, "Have you found Brother Mu's whereabouts over there in Los Angeles?" ”

The man at the head shook his head.

"A bunch of rubbish," Li Meng snorted coldly, "tell them that even if they invite the local mafia forces, they will find the exact location for me." ”

"Yes!" Several men immediately stood up straight, turned and trotted away.

Bang –

The door was vigorously pushed open, and the little girl who was less than 1.5 meters tall stood violently trembling at the door, covered in snow and her face was red.

"Grandma, what the hell is going on!?" Straight question.

"How do you talk to your grandma? Xiao Bai, didn't you tell you not to come and make trouble? Li Meng got up and dragged Xiao Bai to the living room, and slammed the door behind him.

Luo Yao hugged the panting Xiao Bai on her lap, forced her crying and smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, it's just that I haven't been in touch for a long time, and I don't know where they are going......"

Xiao Bai broke free and jumped in front of the two women, raising his eyebrows angrily, "Grandma told me not to worry? Brother Xi said that Abba was going to the New Year's banquet of some arms giant with him, and he had bad intentions at all......"

"Shut up for me." Li Meng drank coldly.

The hall was silent for a while, everyone looked at each other, and finally their eyes converged on Xiao Bai, especially Li Meng's sharp blade-like gaze.

Xiao Bai's heart trembled, she felt puzzled and even helpless for the first time, she looked at everyone present one by one, except for Grandma, she didn't understand why others were indifferent. It was also the first time that she hated her incompetence and even weakness so strongly, "Okay, since you don't care about Brother Xi, I'll take care of it." ”

After that, Xiao Bai turned around and ran towards the door, tears splashed from the corners of her eyes, and she lost her sight, she couldn't hear her grandma's shout, and she couldn't hear Li Meng's cold words, let her go.

On Luo Qi's street, Xiao Bai paused for a moment and ran towards the Municipal Public Security Department.

Dad has a relationship with the director of public security, and if he can ask for help, he will definitely be able to ...... Even if it's just a little bit of news.

Xiao Bai thought like this, and tried harder to lift his steps. However, when she ran to the majestic and upright white building, which was brightly lit, she suddenly felt a little abrupt, looking at the hurried crowd of people coming and going, who might be rushing for what needed them more.

Worry is worry, and Xiao Bai still knows it.

Calling a taxi, Xiao Baiwo was in the co-pilot wrapped in hot air, and the scene flew by beside him. The imperial capital is prosperous, and the remote high-end villa area located outside the business district is the residence of Cheng Hao, the director of the Public Security Department, and he is waiting for him to meet there.

……

The taxi driver opened his mouth to speak, but when he saw the girl running to the bottom of the window of a villa without looking back, even if he was a little distressed and confused in his heart, he could only shake his head helplessly and drive away.

Xiao Bai grabbed the window edge and looked at the living room, sure enough, there was no Uncle Cheng Hao, but who were the other two people besides Aunt and Cheng Lin? A woman with an old face and a teenager of the same grade as Cheng Lin. Maybe it was a guest, Xiao Bai didn't knock on the door but sat on the steps with interest.

I will always wait, Xiao Bai comforted himself like this.

The ice and snow blown by the hot wind soaked the clothes, which were cold and biting against the skin at the moment, and the only remaining heat was lost, but the dull pain in the forehead was becoming more and more obvious.
