Go back to your idol's childhood and accompany you to read all the unknown
Chapter 4: Awkward First Encounter
Mu Qingnian only felt that the boy in front of her looked familiar in the dim light of the distant lights, but before she had time to think about where she had seen him before, the boy had already forced himself to sit up, and his eyes, still filled with strong hostility and vigilance, were looking at her...
"Who are you? Why are you here?"
The boy's voice was deeply hoarse. For some reason, Mu Qingnian felt that the voice was full of vicissitudes that shouldn't be present at this age. She was a little scared. She paused and thought for a moment. Then she realized that she didn't know where she was or where she came from. The only thing she could tell him was probably her name...
A childish voice came out of her mouth, "My name is Mu Qingnian, and I don't know why I am here. I fainted before, and when I woke up, I was here..."
The boy was stunned. He fainted and woke up here. Could it be that this was another child that the group of people had kidnapped from somewhere? Even though the light was too dim, he could see that the girl in front of him looked much rounder than himself. She must have not suffered much. If she was kidnapped here, her parents would be very sad...
Unlike him...
Mu Qingnian, who had introduced herself but didn't hear the boy's reply for a long time, thought that this was the first person she met after traveling through time. Although he was a little fierce, she still wanted to ask him about the situation. However, as soon as she moved her body, her sprained ankle made her cry out in pain.
The boy was interrupted by her shouting. He suddenly realized something when he just woke up. He looked around. He clearly remembered that he was whipped more than ten times. When he was almost out of breath, he was thrown into the mud by that person and left to die. But now the ground beneath him has become dry. Thinking of the voice calling him in a daze just now, he already knew that it was the girl in front of him who pulled him out of the mud just now...
Is it... because of me that I sprained my ankle?
It must be quite difficult for such a small girl to pull herself over...
Thinking of this, the boy's eyes became less alert, and his hoarse voice sounded again, but it was less sharp than before, "Did you pull me over just now? Thank you."
Mu Qingnian was a little stunned. She didn't expect that the person who was so fierce just now would thank her now. She replied in a soft voice, "Ah... You're welcome."
The boy struggled to get up again, but his injuries were too severe. He just stood up a little before he fell heavily to the ground again. Mu Qingnian saw this and, regardless of the pain in her swollen ankle, she staggered to his side, gritted her teeth and stood up. Then she stretched out her hand in his direction and said carefully, "Let me help you up!"
Hearing this, the boy also looked up at the girl who was showing kindness to him. At this moment, a car passed by on the bridge, and the headlights instantly illuminated the faces of the two people...
At that moment, Mu Qingnian's pupils suddenly dilated...
She suddenly became confused, as if she knew who this tortured, skinny, and wounded child was...
Although his face has changed a bit, he has seen countless photos and videos of him in the past two years. He really can't connect the man with a gentle smile, the lively and cheerful boy who brings infinite warmth to others, with the desperate and lifeless boy in front of him...
But the facial features that looked exactly like those of the two made her have to guess that...
While Mu Qingnian was in a daze, the boy took a brief look at the girl under the flashing car lights. She was much shorter than him and looked only eight or nine years old. Her pink face was stained with some mud, probably because of the previous ordeal.
He also noticed the girl's surprise when she saw him, and couldn't help but laugh at himself... He looked like a ghost, and anyone would be scared... Especially a pretty girl...
She and he, after all, do not belong to the same world...
He wanted to extend his hand, but then he took it back. The boy coldly said, "No need."
He chose to cut off this hard-earned kindness and warmth with his own hands...
He doesn't deserve...
Just when he was about to struggle to his feet, he saw the girl had already gotten under his arm without giving him any explanation, put her right hand on his waist, and pulled him up with all her strength.
Before the boy could fully react, he was pulled up by the girl using all her strength and his arms were placed on her not-so-broad shoulders.
Under the boy's stunned gaze, Mu Qingnian's childish but remarkably firm voice rang out, "I'll help you!"
The boy obviously didn't expect that the girl saw him, but instead of scaring him away, she pulled him up with all her strength...
It was like pulling myself out of the quagmire...
The boy's eyes suddenly became moist. It had been a long time since he felt such sincere yet burning warmth...
He suddenly felt a little greedy. This glimpse, which only lasted for a brief moment, also illuminated the light of his dirty life...
When Mu Qingnian pulled the skinny man up, she had already made a decision in her heart. She didn't know why she traveled back in time, and she didn't know why she saw him with scars all over his youth...
However, the news that he had passed away due to illness that night, and the wounds all over the boy's body, intertwined in front of her, made her feel so heartbroken that she couldn't bear it any more...
If possible... she wanted to do her best to make his childhood less painful...
The boy tried hard to support his body so that less of his strength would fall on the girl. Then he pulled up the corners of his mouth that had not risen for a long time and said, "Hello, Mu Qingnian, my name is Gu Min."
Mu Qingnian heard the boy's voice coming from her ear. This time, although it was still hoarse, it was a little warmer, and it seemed to overlap with the voice that warmed everyone more than ten years later...
She smiled, a sincere smile, raised her head, met the boy's eyes, and responded, "Hello, Gu Min, nice to meet you."
I'm glad to know you from the beginning of the story...
