The window in the room was closed, making it dark inside. If she wasn’t familiar with that figure, she really wouldn’t have recognized him.
She felt a little worried and walked over, “Xiao Qiu, what’s wrong?”
Getting closer, she found that He Qiu was making paper airplanes using pieces of papers, and there were already many folded ones next to him.
He seemed not to have heard Fu Yuling speak, and his hands continuously worked on making more. Soon, another paper airplane was finished.
Fu Yuling saw that something was amiss and stopped his hands.
“Xiao Qiu!”
This time, He Qiu finally reacted and looked a bit confused.
Fu Yuling squatted down to his eye-level, asking him calmly and gently.
“Xiao Qiu, can you tell me what you’re doing?”
“Making paper airplanes,” he replied.
“But I was just calling out to you.”
He Qiu looked up, and Fu Yuling noticed the deep fear in his eyes, a fear that wasn’t there when she first saw him.
What’s going on?
Fu Yuling tried to reach out to him, but he avoided her touch.
He looked at his own hands with some regret and then left without saying anything.
Fu Yuling chased after him to the door, where He An stopped her.
“What’s wrong, Xiao An?”
“Brother lost it.”
Fu Yuling took the item in He An’s hand, her pupils contracting sharply.
How could there be such a thing!
Blades are common, but in this time of the novel, the four children were just poor little ones who were bullied. They were not capable of protecting themselves, otherwise they wouldn’t have become dark later on.
But now, whether it was the earlier drugging or the blade, He Qiu’s behavior was somewhat abnormal.
“Does Xiao An like Brother He Qiu?”
He An circled around her, shouting, “Yes!”
“Why do you like him?”
“Because Brother will chase away the bad guys!”
Fu Yuling’s expression didn’t change. “Who is the bad guy?”
He An stopped talking and walking, lowering his gaze to his toes.
Fu Yuling hugged him affectionately. “Won’t Xiao An tell me?”
“Mom…”
His voice was very soft, but Fu Yuling heard it.
She asked again, disbelievingly, “Xiao An, who did you say?”
“Mom is the bad person… Waaah…”
He An suddenly broke into tears. Fu Yuling patted his back to soothe his breathing.
At this time, Fu Qi came over, but didn’t approach to interrupt. Instead he just stood there in the distance watching.
It took about five minutes for He An to calm down.
Fu Yuling kissed his cheek. For children, physical contact can make them feel the warmth more quickly.
“Why did you say Mom is a bad person?”
She made a funny face and touched his face. “Does this look like a bad person?”
She couldn’t help but laugh. “Does Xiao An think it looks like one?”
He An shook his head and hugged her head with both hands.
“The bad person looks like Mom.”
This key point, Fu Yuling kept in mind.
Looks like her? She couldn’t figure it out for now.
Until evening, Fu Qi left first, and Fu Yuling kept an eye on He An the whole time.
During this period, she also asked He Wen and He Xuan about the situation or whether anyone had come today.
But the result was that no one had come all day.
This made the matter even more strange. Inevitably, she thought of that sentence from last night.
The author is making corrections, the author has noticed something is wrong, so has she modified some settings?
All of this is unknown, this matter cannot be solved for now, so it has to be kept in her heart.
She tried to find He Qiu several times, but she didn’t see him. She knew that he was at He Jingxue’s house, but He Qiu didn’t want to see her.
