Chapter 384 The Lost and Found Child
But these seemed different to Li Shen. He saw Tao Tao always looking at He Jiaojiao and thought she envied He Jiaojiao for having so many partners.
Although Li Shen knew that it was normal for females to have many partners, he still selfishly wanted to monopolize Tao Tao for a longer period of time.
After getting off the boat, it was still bright outside. It was boring to stay like this, so He Jiaojiao and Tao Tao simply took the kids to the beach to play in the water.
In order to ensure the safety of the two females, Lan Yu was responsible for watching from the side.
"Jiaojiao, come and see, there are so many beautiful shells here!"
Tao Tao looked down and discovered something, then shouted loudly to He Jiaojiao, her two little hands almost leaving afterimages.
He Jiaojiao hurried over and dug out a lot of beautifully colored shells under the sand.
"There are a lot of these on the seabed. Do you like them, Jiaojiao?"
Looking at the shell in He Jiaojiao's hand, Lan Yu couldn't help but ask.
"Of course!" Tao Tao answered first, "No female would dislike such a beautiful thing."
"Jiaojiao, let's find some more and make some beautiful wind chimes, okay?"
Tao Tao pulled He Jiaojiao to squat on the beach, lowered her head and dug the sand hard. Lan Yu saw that He Jiaojiao's head was covered with sand by Tao Tao, and finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Don't bother looking anymore. I'll go down to the sea and help you fish. I'll give you as much as you want, okay?"
Then he took He Jiaojiao to the beach with a caring look on his face, washed the sand off his hands, and helped her sit down on the reef.
"Great, great!" Tao Tao was very happy. "Not just this kind, but other looks too. The more the better!"
Although Tao Tao and she had a good relationship, Lan Yu was her partner after all, so He Jiaojiao still felt a little strange. So she took Lan Yu's hand and said, "We don't need many. We just want to make a few wind chimes and hang one in each room. When the wind blows, it will make nice sounds."
Lan Yu nodded knowingly, "Don't worry, I know."
Lan Yu jumped into the sea, while He Jiaojiao and Tao Tao sat on the shore waiting.
"Jiaojiao, you weren't unhappy just now, were you?"
Tao Tao approached He Jiaojiao and asked, "Just because I asked Lan Yu to find Duoduo's shells, you're unhappy?"
"I'm not unhappy!" He Jiaojiao didn't want to admit it. After all, it would make her look petty.
"Don't be upset, I really don't mean anything else. I will pay attention next time, okay?"
After what happened last time, Tao Tao felt that sisters should make things clear as soon as possible if there are any issues, otherwise it would be bad if misunderstandings and rifts arise.
She wasn't really angry in the first place, but after Tao Tao's advice, He Jiaojiao felt a little embarrassed.
"I'm not actually angry. I just want to ask my partner to do something next time. Can you tell me first? It would be better if I could tell you."
Tao Tao nodded seriously, "Yes, you are right! I will definitely pay attention to it next time."
The two sisters looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"Mother, my brother is still entangled in something!"
Zening hurried to He Jiaojiao and pointed at Wei An who was playing in the shallow water.
He Jiaojiao quickly stood up and looked over. Sure enough, she saw Wei An floating in the water. She quickly raised her feet and ran towards him.
"Tao Tao, don't move on the shore!"
Since she wouldn't be drowned anyway, He Jiaojiao was about to jump into the water without even thinking, but Wei An suddenly got up by himself.
"Are you okay?"
He Jiaojiao hurried forward and grabbed Wei'an for a closer look, but Wei'an kept looking back at the sea.
"how......"
The following words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them. He Jiaojiao never thought that there would be a day when she would see Xikang again.
However, Xikang looked a lot thinner and darker.
But when she thought that he left on his own, He Jiaojiao became very angry and simply pulled Zening and Wei'an towards the shore.
Tao Tao, who was standing by, had never seen Xikang before, but she could tell that this kid who had suddenly appeared in the water looked a lot like Zening and Wei'an. She remembered Hongyi had let slip that he had a brother, but he had just run away from home because he got upset...
Now it seems that this must be another snake cub of He Jiaojiao.
"You are a delicate child, come up quickly!"
Tao Tao waved to Xikang, who lowered his head and slowly walked up.
He had never thought that he would meet his mother and the others here. He thought they had already gone to the Dragon God Continent!
At first, when he found out his father hadn't come after him, he was extremely happy, thinking that he could finally be free. Just like Yinchuan back then, he could finally be independent and strong.
But gradually, Xikang discovered that living alone outside was not as easy as he had thought.
In fact, there were several times when he barely managed to save his life.
Only then did he realize that his mother had always been protecting him and not restricting his freedom.
After figuring it out, he wanted to try his luck at the beach. If he could see his mother... well, actually, he hadn't thought about what he should do if he met his mother.
"Why are you still so cold? Why don't you go and apologize to your mother?"
Seeing Xikang standing there motionless, Tao Tao couldn't help but step forward and hold his cold little hand. The moment she touched it, Tao Tao was stunned for a moment, then held it tighter.
Tao Tao brought Xikang all the way to He Jiaojiao, and gave him a gentle push, allowing Xikang to take two steps forward.
"Mother..."
Xikang spoke with difficulty. He had no idea how to ask for his mother's forgiveness. He could even imagine how sad his mother would be when she knew he was gone.
He Jiaojiao pulled Wei An, "Are you okay?"
Wei An shook his head and looked at Xi Kang hesitantly, "Mother, my brother..."
"I'm glad you're not hurt. Don't go to dangerous places alone in the future. Mother will be worried."
"Mother, it was Xikang who saved me!"
Wei An took two steps to the side and pulled Xi Kang in front of He Jiaojiao.
"Mother..."
Being ignored by his mother again and again, Xikang's eyes couldn't help but turn red. He reached out to hold his mother's hand, but he was worried that she was still angry...
"Go and see if Lan Yu's father has returned."
He Jiaojiao said to Wei'an and Zening, and the two boys seemed to know that their mother wanted to talk to Xikang alone, so they walked away obediently.
Seeing this, Tao Tao also quietly walked to a farther place.
On the boat, Mo Ran had already sensed Xikang's presence. He thought about going over, but thinking that He Jiaojiao would probably want to talk to Xikang alone, he held back.
"Mom, I'm sorry..."
Xikang knelt in front of He Jiaojiao, buried his face in his mother's arms, and cried silently.
At this moment, He Jiaojiao couldn't hold back any longer, tears streaming down her face like beads from a broken string. She had just noticed that Xikang must have suffered a lot outside. She was indeed very angry at first, but the moment she saw Xikang, she was left with only heartache.
