C454 Childhood(1)

In the yard, she had a lot of fun in her childhood. She still remembered that night, no matter how hard she tossed and turned, she couldn't fall asleep. So she mustered her courage and knocked on the dean's door. She remembered Mother Dean's shocked gaze. Then, she was brought into a warm embrace. It was very similar to the warmth of her ideal motherly love. That night, she pestered Mother Dean to tell her a story. She still remembered what she said, "Jiajia, how many stars are there in the sky?" Mother Dean pointed to the night sky outside the window with one hand and held Jiajia's thin body with the other. She said to her with a face full of love.

Little Jiajia naively pointed to the window and said in a tender voice, "I know, I know, Mother Dean." Then she seriously counted for her to hear, "One, two, three... Nineteen, twenty. " At that time, Jiajia felt that she was so stupid that she could not finish counting no matter how hard she counted.

Mother Dean looked at her serious expression and touched her smooth natural curly hair. She said to her lovingly," Silly child, how could the stars in the sky finish counting? Mother Dean can tell you a story, okay?"

"Okay, okay, Mother Dean will tell a story." Little Jiajia obediently lay down on the bed. She liked to pester Mother Dean to tell stories.

Seeing Jiajia's face full of expectation, Mother Dean slowly said, "Do you see the brightest star in the sky? It has a nice name called Qi Xing. Legend has it that after a person dies, he will become a star. That is, the brightest star."

Jiajia asked, a little confused, "Director, why would a person die? Would Jiajia also die in the future? "

"Silly child, you will understand when you grow up. Alright, now it is time for us, Jiajia, to sleep." Mother Dean touched her little head with amusement and urged.

Now, time had changed. Things had changed, people had changed, and many years had passed. After she understood Mother Dean's smiling but not answering words, the person who had enlightened her back then no longer existed. Five years ago, Mother Dean was found to be in the advanced stage of breast cancer. The orphanage was also about to face demolition, and Mother Dean, who was powerless to save it, died of depression. This was the blood and sweat that she must have spent. The brothers and sisters in the yard were also arranged to be adopted, and she chose to step into society. Later on, she met Tiantian.

The scenes of the past never came back, the orphanage that enshrined her childhood shadow... Now, it had become rows of skyscrapers. It was not that she had never been back. It was just that other than a piece of land, there was no other commemorative value. Those beautiful moments had long been deeply engraved in her mind, and she couldn't get rid of them.

Jiajia, who suddenly felt a little lonely, hugged her legs and stood in the sky above her. The vast and boundless night sky was filled with stars. In a trance, she seemed to see Mother Dean smiling lovingly at her. And the warmth of Jiajia's greedy embrace.

At this moment, Jiajia's heart was filled with a kind of nostalgic feeling. She thought. The brightest star in the night sky must be her Mother Dean. The eyes of the stars blinked. It seemed to be telling her, Child, don't be sad.

Chu Yihan, who had finished packing the firewood, saw this scene when he returned. The little girl who should have been in the tent was currently hugging and retreating. A pair of eyes stared in a certain direction in an instant. There were emotions in his eyes that he did not understand. The tears on her face had long dried up, but there were still traces of her crying that could be vaguely seen.

Chu Yihan only felt a stabbing pain in his heart, but he silently talked to her. He got up and walked towards her, and reached out to hold her in his arms.

Jiajia, who was immersed in her own world, did not notice that someone was approaching, but when she was about to get up and return to the tent, she smelled a familiar scent. He was back!

"What are you crying about, little cat? It's so ugly. I just walked for a while and you took care of yourself like this? I'm leaving, how can I be at ease? If it's cold, I'll go and start a fire." Chu Yihan said helplessly. He used his strong and powerful palm to rub her bare hands in the air.

With Chu Yihan, a man with strong wild survival ability, in a short while, the fire started to rise. From time to time, the sound of burning wooden sticks could be heard. In this kind of silence, it became much more lively.

The two of them snuggled against each other by the fire. Chu Yihan held Jiajia in his arms. He fiddled with the fire with one hand. Jiajia felt a lot warmer and the two of them just quietly did not speak anymore. Jiajia also did not remember when she leaned on Chu Yihan's shoulder and fell asleep. She only knew that when she woke up, she was already lying straight in the tent.

"Wife? Wife? Get up. If you don't get up, you won't be able to see the beautiful sunrise. " Chu Yihan nudged Jiajia with his elbow. She was really sleeping soundly. He had spent a lot of effort last night to get this sleeping pig in. There was nothing he could do about it. The tent was a little narrow.
