"Yan Si, what are you doing here alone?"

Inside the orphanage, a skinny little boy saw Yan Si running to a corner alone as soon as the children were dismissed, and ran over curiously and asked.

Yan Si, who was caught, shuddered and quickly turned around to silence the little boy, then waved at him and said, "Hush, Lu Jinye, come here."

Lu Jinye moved closer without knowing why, and when he squatted beside Yan Si, he saw a bulging, worn canvas bag in front of him, and something seemed to be squirming inside.

Lu Jinye immediately guessed what was going on. He suppressed his excitement and whispered, "What's inside? Is it a kitten or a puppy? Where did you pick it up?"

As he spoke, Lu Jinye reached out and opened the canvas bag, but when he saw the creature inside, he was stunned.

That was Freya who had exhausted her mental strength and transformed back into her birth form.

Yan Si picked up the canvas bag and said to Lu Jinye with sparkling eyes: "How is it? It's amazing, right? This is my new friend."

Lu Jinye came back to his senses, looked at Yan Si with an indescribable look, and then looked at the creature in the canvas bag. He stretched out his finger, poked it tentatively, and then commented: "It's bouncy and cool, like jelly."

"So what kind of creature is she?"

Lu Jinye tilted his head and asked in confusion.

Yan Si put down the canvas bag, took Freya out of the bag, held her limply in his hands, and said with a smile, "I don't know."

Lu Jinye: ...

"But she can understand what I say. She is very spiritual."

Yan Si added.

Then Yan Si roughly recounted his experience of picking up Freya these days. Lu Jinye seemed to be thinking about something after listening to him. No wonder he always felt that Yan Si was weird these days.

Although it was not clear what kind of creature Yan Si picked up, after observing her for a few days, Lu Jinye found that she seemed harmless and liked to sleep very much.

It feels cool and comfortable to hold it in your arms when you sleep in the hot summer.

Freya was also picked up by Yan Si while she was sleeping. At first, when she woke up and saw a childish little face, Freya felt calm and was too lazy to even move.

Sleeping helps Freya recover her mental strength.

Although the child who picked her up always rubbed her, Freya did not mind it because she did not feel any malice from the child.

Anyway, I have to prepare to recover my mental strength first, and then return to the mother tree. Instead of wandering around and worrying about recovering my mental strength, it is better to stay with this child, which is safer.

What puzzled Freya was that the child named Yan Si always said strange things to her while holding her.

"When I grow up, I will make a lot of money, and then travel around the world, eat all the delicious food, see all the scenery, and take a good look at the world."

"The sky around the orphanage is too small. Sometimes I want to be a bird and fly in the wider sky outside."

Whenever she told Freya about her vision for the future, Lu Jinye beside her would agree with her, with a determined look as if what they said would definitely come true.

Freya just lay motionless in Yan Si's arms, seemingly asleep, but in fact she was also thinking about these words in her heart.

Will I be able to achieve what I want when I grow up? Then I will grow up quickly, rebuild my homeland, and revive my people.

Patriarch, the process of growing up is somewhat heavy.
