I trade in both worlds

Chapter 38 Frightened

After a long while, Xu Jin's emotions finally showed up. He opened his mouth and started crying: "Wow~ Sister, where are you? Wuuuu~~ Sister, wuuuu~~."

Xu Xu, who was looking at the snack stand on the second-floor platform, was frightened by the crying and quickly ran downstairs. When he ran to the yard, he saw Xu Jin crying while holding the door frame of the utility room.

Xu Xu's eyes were wide open and round, his eyeballs were like ping-pong balls that were about to jump out of their sockets, his mouth was slightly open, as if he was overwhelmed by surprise, and his whole body seemed to have become a stone sculpture, motionless.

Hearing the footsteps, he began to get scared, but Xu Jin still looked at the yard with his eyes wide open. When he saw Xu Xu, he quickly let go of the door frame and ran over to hug Xu Xu's legs: "Wow, sister, where have you been? I can't find you anywhere. Woo woo~ Where is this place? I'm scared to death."

Xu Xu finally came to her senses and hugged Xu Jin, stroking his back and comforting him, "It's okay, sister is here, don't be afraid."

Although he was puzzled as to how Xu Jin got here, seeing that he was quite frightened, he decided to comfort him first. It would not be too late to ask him later after he recovered.

After seeing Xu Xu, Xu Jin was not as scared as he was at the beginning, but he still hugged Xu Xu's neck tightly and said twitchingly: "Where is this? I'm obviously at home."

Seeing that he was crying so hard that his nose was running, Xu Xu wiped his tears and snot with a handkerchief and said softly, "I don't know where this is. I just looked around. Xiao Jin, how did you get here?"

Remembering that she came to find Xu Xu because Xu Tingting was crying, she hurriedly urged, "Sister, go back quickly. Tiantian is crying and we can't comfort her no matter how hard we try. I've been looking for you everywhere but can't find you."

Xu Xu carried Xu Jin to the door of the utility room, pressed her right thumb on the door frame, and the two of them appeared in the storage room of the house. It was not until then that Xu Xu realized that she had come here carrying Xu Jin.

Is it because Xu Jin can go there by himself, or can she bring people there directly? Xu Xu wanted to try again, but when Xu Tiantian's crying voice came, he had no choice but to go and see what was going on and comfort the child first.

After returning home, Xu Jin felt relieved, but he still didn't want to leave Xu Xu's arms. He wanted to continue lying on Xu Xu's shoulders and not get down. However, hearing his niece's crying, Xu Jin had to get down first and walked to the door holding Xu Xu's hand.

After cleaning Xu Tiantian and putting on a new diaper, Xu Xu wanted to put her in the cradle again, but she held onto Xu Xu's clothes tightly and refused to go to the cradle. It was probably because Xu Xu had cried for so long and didn't come, so she felt insecure.

The same went for Xu Jin. He had been following Xu Xu since he came back, pulling at her clothes and following her wherever she went. There was no other way, so Xu Xu could only sit under the eaves holding Xu Tiantian, watching Xu Zhun and Xu Qiwei chasing the two dogs. Xu Jin also moved a stool to sit next to her and rested his head on her arm.

Seeing Xu Jin's insecure and dependent look, it seemed that he was very scared this time. Xu Xu stretched out a hand to hold him and asked softly, "Xiao Jin, how did you get there?"

Xu Jin thought for a moment and said, "I don't know either. I almost fell when I was leaving the house, so I held onto the door sill. Then my hands started to hurt, and I felt a little dizzy. When I stopped feeling dizzy, I opened my eyes and that's where I was."

Hearing Xu Jin say that his hand hurt and he felt dizzy, Xu Xu pulled his hand and asked, "Which hand hurts? Are you still dizzy?"

Xu Jin pointed to his right palm and replied, "It hurt here for a while, and I felt dizzy for a while, but I forgot when I stopped feeling dizzy."

Xu Xu also felt slight discomfort the first time he went there. He thought that the dizziness he felt might be the discomfort from the first time he went there, and maybe it wouldn't happen next time.

He looked carefully at Xu Jin's palm, then at his own thumb. There was not even a trace of the injured area, as if he had never been injured. He should be able to move back and forth freely if he touched the door frame with the injured area.

Gently stroking Xu Jin's small palm, Xu Xu asked: "Does your hand still hurt?"

Xu Jin shook his head, thinking about the small courtyard. He was too scared to look closely at it at the time, but even with a quick glance, he could tell that the houses there were different from those in the village. He looked up and asked Xu Xu, "Sister, where is that? Why can we go there?"

Looking at Xu Jin's ignorant expression, Xu Xu felt that there was no need to hide it any longer. He could go through freely, but he couldn't let him go alone. There was no telling when the owner of the yard over there would show up, so it would be better to be cautious.

"I don't know where that is either. The way to get there is to press the palm of your hand against the door frame. But you can't get there without me by your side, okay?"

"Got it." At this moment, Xu Jin had forgotten his fear of that place, and his curiosity got the better of him: "When can sister go there? I want to go with you too."

Xu Xu scratched his nose and teased, "Are you not scared anymore? Who was the one who was crying so hard just now?"

Xu Jin buried his face in her arms shyly, but still insisted: "I'm not afraid as long as my sister is here. I also want to go there with my sister. It's so beautiful there, I haven't seen it before."

Looking at Xu Zhun and Xu Qiwei who were sweating profusely while playing in the yard, Xu Xu warned them, "Don't tell them about this first, okay?"

I had originally wanted to take my brother and nephew to have a look there, but after hearing what Xu Xu said, I asked with a disappointed look on my face, "Why? I wanted to take them over there to play."

"Because the house over there is occupied, but they are not at home now. I don't know when they will come back, and I don't know whether they are good people or bad people. I will tell them all these after I am sure. I won't tell them now, okay?" Xu Xu explained.

Xu Jin nodded, knowing that it was someone else's house and there was someone living in it. He was a little disappointed, as he thought that the house also belonged to them.

Seeing his disappointed look, Xu Xu thought it was because he couldn't take his brother and nephew over, so he promised: "After they take a nap in the afternoon, I'll take you over to have a look, okay?"

"Yeah." Thinking about going to that magical place again in the afternoon, Xu Jin danced with joy.

In the afternoon, after the children had taken a nap, Xu Xu brought Xu Jin to the utility room. He watched Xu Jin put his hand on the door frame, and then he disappeared in an instant.

It was the first time she saw a real person disappear, and she was a little shocked. For a moment, she couldn't accept what she had just seen.

He stared at the door frame in amazement, unable to recover from his shock. When he came to his senses, Xu Xu hurried over, fearing that he would be scared being alone there.
