Shuxin was a little touched. She couldn't help but think of her own mother. Why were other people's mothers so nice, but hers was so cruel? Shuxin's hand was empty. She lowered her head. Huo Jibai had already taken her phone back.
The two of them didn't speak again. They both sank into their own thoughts.
In a daze, Shuxin fell asleep. She had a dream. She dreamed of her mother. However, her mother seemed to be in a white mist. She couldn't see her face clearly. She only heard her mother say, "Xin 'er, I'm sorry that I couldn't grow up with you. You must listen to Daddy and Grandma and be an obedient child."
In the dream, Shuxin was very young. She was probably only five or six years old. Seeing the woman in the white mist turn to leave, little Shuxin cried and ran after her. "Mommy, Mommy, don't go. Don't leave Xin 'er and Daddy behind. Mommy …"
Little Shuxin ran too fast and fell to the ground. Her little mouth rubbed against the ground and it bled. She ate a mouthful of sand. However, when she looked up, her mother was no longer in front of her. There was only a white mist.
Little Shuxin cried and shouted, "Mommy … Mommy …"
Huo Jibai heard Shuxin talking in her sleep and turned his head. The lights in the car weren't turned on. The dim light from the street lamps shone in through the car window. The woman's palm-sized face was covered in tears. She looked sad and resentful. She whispered, "Mommy … Mommy …"
Huo Jibai took off his jacket and covered Shuxin's slightly curled body with it. He raised his slender fingers to wipe her tears. Just as he was about to touch her face, he paused. He paused in the air for two seconds before retracting his hand. He took two pieces of tissue paper from the box and wiped the tears off her face.
The woman suddenly grabbed his hand and begged, "Mommy … Don't go …"
Huo Jibai looked at Shuxin's tear-filled face and his heart tightened. He had never touched a woman before. The soft touch on his hand made him blush. He wanted to withdraw his hand, but she held it even tighter. "Don't leave Xin 'er behind … Xin' er, be good …"
Huo Jibai hesitated for a moment. He patted the back of Shuxin's hand gently with his other hand. His clear voice sounded in the car. "I'm not leaving."
He did not know if Shu Xin heard his words, but her emotions gradually stabilized, and her crying slowly stopped.
Huo Jibai was no longer sleepy. His impulsive emotions gradually calmed down, and his brain began to work. The woman today was exactly the same as his mother in terms of figure and appearance, but her temperament was completely different.
His mother was gentle and demure, but the woman today had a cold temperament and exuded the aura of a business elite.
. Was it really like what Shuxin said? Did she just look like his mother?
Shuxin wasn't in a deep sleep. A car screeched by and woke her up. She opened her eyes and saw Huo Jibai holding her hand. Shocked, she flung his hand away and complained loudly, "Huo Jibai, I'm your Young Aunt. How can you take advantage of me while I'm asleep?"
Huo Jibai frowned. "Who's taking advantage of you? You were the one who grabbed my hand and refused to let go. I couldn't fling your hand away. "
Shuxin didn't believe him. "How is that possible? You were in the driver's seat and I was in the passenger's seat. We were so far apart. How could I catch you?"
