In the end, Cheng Xiaoli did not take the packet of powder with her. She stood outside the courtyard, looked at the person who was still bowing his head inside, smiled, took out the suit jacket, cut it in half with a knife, threw it on the ground, and then left with her men without looking back.
"What does she mean by that? What is she laughing at?" Wu Xie asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Who knew? This woman was acting crazy, and this black bird, wasn't it supposed to be smashed and chopped into mincemeat? It was squawking so loudly back then, how could it have forgotten so quickly?" the fat man said, holding the crow's foot.
Seeing that it couldn't move, and as if threatened, the crow pecked the fat man's hand hard. Caught off guard, the fat man felt the pain and let go. The crow then flew into the house and perched on Ling Xiao's shoulder.
"If I hadn't just met this old crow today, I would have really thought it was Lingzi's pet." Fatty said as he walked into the house. Logically speaking, even a properly trained bird might not be this smart, let alone a wild crow.
"Lingzi, what did that woman say to you? How are you? Did she hurt you or threaten you?" Wuxie asked with concern.
Ling Xiao shook his head, and Xie Yuhua sat down next to him and gently hugged him.
Ling Xiao, who hadn't thought anything of it at first, suddenly felt a surge of grievance when Xie Yuhua hugged him.
He rested his head on Xie Yuhua's shoulder and finally couldn't hold back his sobs.
The child didn't speak, and the understanding woman didn't ask him anything; she just stayed with him, silently comforting him.
Seeing this, the fat man and his companions exchanged glances and silently left the room.
"The syringe in the room is gone," the fat man reminded everyone, frowning.
“She took it with her!” Black Bear replied, not understanding what was so strange about it.
"Don't overthink it. The young master didn't say anything. It's not scientific to suspect that she threatened him just because the injection was taken away." Hei Xiazi lit a cigarette as he spoke and added, "Don't worry, Master Hua knows what he's doing."
After saying that, he handed the extra cigarettes in his hand to the deliveryman and said, "Want one?"
—Inside the house
Ling Xiao seemed to be exhausted from crying. He sobbed softly, "What should I do? What should I do, Brother Xiao Hua? She really told me so many things, but I... I can't absorb them all."
Then he got up from Xie Yuhua's shoulder, lowered his head and raised his hands. Looking at his still trembling hands, tears fell in a steady stream onto his palms, the backs of his hands and Xie Yuhua's pants.
"It's okay." Jieyuhua kissed the child's forehead and said, "Let's take this opportunity to forget those unpleasant and unhappy memories." She then gently tapped Lingxiao's forehead with her finger and said, "We should keep our little brains to record some happy things, okay?"
"Okay." Ling Xiao immediately smiled with his eyes crinkling. If Fatty were here, he would probably tease him again, saying, "The young lady is getting into the sedan chair."
"We need to pack our things these next couple of days; we have to leave." The fifteenth of the lunar month is in three days, and he has to take the child back home. Otherwise, if the child gets sick here, the ice might freeze again, and it wouldn't be good if the villagers found out.
"Brother Xiaohua." Ling Xiao gently pressed his lips to Xie Yuhua's lips, wrapped his arms around Xie Yuhua's neck, and sat on Xie Yuhua's lap.
Looking innocently and affectionately at the somewhat stunned man with teary eyes, Ling Xiao whispered in his ear, "Kiss me."
