C11 Chapter 11

A voice came from a distance, and with a flurry of footsteps, the three of them finally saw the old woman, with the sun, and the boy who looked to be eight or nine.

"No, please wait. Don't cry."

An old woman, panting, pushed open the door, put her hands on the little girl's shoulders, and looked at her steadily. "Please don't cry."

As soon as the little boy entered the room, he gave Soong Chaoxi a cute, innocent smile that seemed to be a comforting one. Soong Chaoxi did not have the time to look at it, because of what the old lady said, because she was saying... You are not dead...

She must know something.

Yuan Fann also revealed a smile of anticipation at this moment. Soong Chaoxi felt that he wanted to dig out everything the old lady was going to say in her mind.

"Tell me, what's your name?"

The gentle words made the little girl stop crying. She paused, sniffed, and replied, "Nan Lu."

"Okay, Nan Lu. You are a very cute and lucky child. You came here and met me. I will help you, I will help all of you leave this place. The only thing you need to do is trust me, because I will not let you die. I will not allow this to happen. "

The girl was very excited. She grabbed onto her life-saving straw and asked, "Is what you said true?"

The old woman nodded vigorously, then pulled the little boy beside her who was still smiling at Soong Chaoxi. "He and I will both help you."

Nan Lu looked at the little boy. The little boy suddenly hugged her, smiled, and made a cheering gesture.

"I'm sorry. This child couldn't speak when he was born, but he was very warm-hearted and brave."

Hearing this, Nan Lu patted his head sympathetically and made a gesture of encouragement. Her sad mood just now disappeared like the wind passing by.

"Sorry, but we don't know. Can you tell us more about it?"

Yuan Fann, who couldn't continue to feel this way, spoke up. Soong Chaoxi just quietly watched from the side.

She was wondering why someone would suddenly appear here. Was what she said really believable?

"Hmm, I'll tell you everything I know. I'm the manager here. You can just call me Granny. And this little boy, he's Xiao Ze."

Xiao Ze puffed up his cheeks when he heard half of what she said. He looked at the granny who was talking beside him with a puzzled expression.

Soong Chaoxi nodded slightly. She put her hand in her coat pocket.

Manager? What did that mean?

"I know it's hard for you to accept, but please sit down calmly. I will explain it slowly."

...

The granny sat down and took a deep, ritualistic breath. Then, she gave the three people in front of her a kind and encouraging smile.

The sunlight shone through the window. The scene should have been very harmonious and warm, but under the feeling that they were about to fall into hell, it was difficult for them to feel happy.

"We are dying. So?"

Soong Chaoxi leaned against the wall and looked at the bookshelf in front of her from the farthest place from the old lady. She browsed through the different titles on the spines of the books.
