Chapter 168: Chapter 169 So it’s because he saved you, you devoted yourself to him Chapter 168: Chapter 169 So it’s because he saved you, you devoted yourself to him At that ti, there was no such thing as tily assistance through difficulty; it was good enough not to kick soone while they were down.
So, Bai Da was truly kind to her.
“Just like that?”
Bai Zhi’s mouth twitched, thinking there would be so earth-shattering, soul-stirring story, just because they worked together.
Should she take back her conclusion that Ye Xiu was quite intelligent?
“Of course not just that, we didn’t have water pipes before, we had to fetch water, and I lived with your grandmother halfway up the mountain, which you can’t see now.”
Ye Xiu looked toward the hillside. They had lived there until her mother passed away.
“Your dad and him, they fetched water and chopped wood for every day, and since we shared similar interests, we got along well.
Several tis, I fell into traps and got injured, and it was your dad who saved .”
Ye Xiu frowned, her speech wasn’t very coherent, and even for a mont, though she said so, there was a montary blankness and confusion in her eyes?
It was as if she wasn’t sure herself, yet she chanically spoke out.
“How many tis? Under what circumstances?”
Bai Zhi saw Ye Xiu’s confused look and hurriedly spoke.
“Xingxing, why are you so curious?”
Ye Xiu felt sowhat helpless, always thinking that the current Xingxing was too gossipy.
“Because I want to see if he really has any strengths? Otherwise, besides being a lousy dad, he’s also a lousy man, completely worthless.”
Bai Zhi touched her chin, appearing quite distressed, thinking for a long ti before she finally spoke.
Ye Xiu: “…”
Why didn’t she feel that Xingxing was looking for Bai Da’s strengths but rather his flaws?
“Well, let think, the most touching thing actually happened one year when wild boars descended from the mountain. Xingxing, you don’t know, those starving mad boars, over a dozen of them, desperately ran down, and everyone was too late to run, especially . Your dad stood in front of …”
Ye Xiu furrowed her brows, unsure why she rembered it so clearly, yet the image was blurred, perhaps because it was too long ago.
Later, the people in the village all ate pork. That day, it was really thrilling.
“Also, that big mountain, why I didn’t let you go there, because it’s really easy to get lost. One year, I went to cut pig grass and got lost, fell into a pit, and it was your dad who searched for for three days and nights without giving up and finally rescued . Your dad really saved ti and again.”
Ye Xiu recalled now that, although the mory was blurry, she still rembered that protective warmth.
Bai Zhi kept frowning, Ye Xiu talked very flatly, as if speaking about soone else’s story; she rembered, but she seed confused.
What exactly was going on?
“So, because he saved you, did you devote yourself to him?”
That shouldn’t be too lodramatic, right?
Ye Xiu felt stifled again, wondering why Xingxing, with a blank face, would say such a thing.
“Not really, I liked him too. Like the bracelet, it was specially brought back by him from a far place, just that it’s already broken now.”
Ye Xiu beca much quieter, as if, between them, there were still cracks, the lingering kind.
The person who once cherished her in the palm of his hand had done sothing she couldn’t accept.
“Oh.” Bai Zhi said blandly, not saying more.
“Xingxing, thank you,”
Ye Xiu looked at her daughter, who appeared cold as ice, seemingly keeping others at a great distance, yet who unquestionably protected her.
