"...All in all, that's it. This child will stay with you for a few days." On the phone, Asahina Hikaru's voice sounded a little tired.

"Are you kidding me!" Zao held the phone, lowered his voice and yelled at the person on the other end of the phone, "Have you ever thought that this is unfair to her?"

There seemed to be silence on the other end of the phone. After a long time, Guang sighed softly, "Let her grow up in that innocent world forever, isn't it good? It's better not to know about some things."

Zao turned her head and glanced in Huili's direction, "But this is not a solution after all."

"Miwa originally thought about bringing them back to the United States, and then brought them back after the news passed, but this proposal was rejected by Ukyo. After all, Ema is pregnant and is not suitable for long-distance travel. Besides, Eri may not be willing to leave. Originally, I planned to put Huilian to live with you for two days, and now it’s not too bad. But what surprised me is that this girl has something to do with the second lady of the Takahashi family.” Guang thought for a while After a while, "The Takahashi family is not a fuel-efficient lamp!"

Zao responded, "Matsu Keiko Takahashi? Hasn't the head of Takahashi's family already given up on her?"

Light shook his head and denied: "Takahashi Matsueko's biological mother holds 10% of the Amano Group's shares, and Matsueko is the sole heir..." At this point, Light "cut", "This group of guys are fighting each other, but they are still Bring our family into the water."

Worried that his voice would wake up the people in the room, Zao stood in the direction of the balcony and said in a deep voice, "But can this matter be hidden?"

"If you can't hide it, you have to hide it!" Guang smiled wryly, "Now we can only hope that Meihe will settle the matter early."

"But, why Lucky?"

The light on the other end of the phone played with the turquoise lace in his hand, and said in a calm tone:

"Because Ryukyu is the adopted son of the Asahina family."

The phone hangs up.

Just rubbing the sore corners of his eyes, it was already so late, he turned on the desk lamp in the study, went in and continued to sort out the messy piece of copy paper on the table, after a long time, he sighed.

It's really not the right time for the head of the Amano family to be ill!

Late at night, at Asahina's house.

Zao put on a coat and walked into Huili's room, this child, he stretched out his hand and pulled up the quilt that had fallen on his shoulders.The smell of alcohol in the room is very strong, a little pungent, and the air flow is not good, which makes people feel a little swollen.He went over and opened the window a crack, and turned up the heat in the room to the maximum.

The child's eyes are a little swollen now, and his face doesn't look well.It must be very hard, Zao sat on the side of the bed, and gently held her hand, whether it is pain or sadness, I will accompany you.

You once told me that strong people don't shed tears, but now I'm tired, I don't want to be so strong anymore, just let me be self-willed once, just this time, okay?

In this way, Eri stayed at the seventh elder brother's house, Nazao Asahina, and Takahashi Matsukeko sent her the package that she left at her house the next day very loyally, so there was basically no problem in life.

Because of the alcoholism that night, Eili would have stomach pains whenever she ate hard food for a long time. As a last resort, she could only eat non-pungent and easy-to-digest food for three meals a day.

Zao is busy with work and overtime on weekdays. She stays at home alone. Most of the time, she sits on the balcony. Sometimes she sits for a whole day. She doesn't know what she is thinking, but she is originally beautiful. His cheeks looked thinner, and his expression was not as energetic as before.

"Meow~" The two kittens poked their heads and rubbed against Huili's body. Huili didn't respond, but just stared at the scenery outside the window in a daze. "Meow?" The kitten called again, and Huili turned around dully. In a blink of an eye, he stretched out his thin hand and touched the kitten's head twice, then fell silent again.

"Why are you sitting here again?" Zao covered her body with a blanket in his hand, squatted down and looked at her, "It's December now, don't you really know it's cold?"

Eili looked at Zao, then slowly looked down at the blanket on her body, and shook her head slightly.

"Tomorrow...do you want to go home and have a look?" Zao hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Ema seemed to have accidentally fallen yesterday. Although she was not in danger, she was still very weak. Do you want to go back?" have a look?"

Hearing the news that Ema accidentally dropped her, there was a slight ripple in Eili's unchanging eyes, but soon, everything returned to calm, she pursed her lips, and shook her head slightly.

"Aren't you going back..." Zao sighed, "Huili, you have to go home."

Eri didn't respond, and stared out the window with a pair of big, lifeless eyes.

"Come in, it's too cold outside." Zao reached out and covered her cheeks that were a little red from the cold.

Eili nodded, and walked into the house with the blanket on her body.The two kittens behind her also meowed and followed her.

Looking at Eili's back like this, Zao suddenly thought of the first time I saw her in the church of Meihe's wedding, such a pair of smart eyes, but now...

"Jingle Bell--"

"Jingle Bell--"

Eili picked up the mobile phone on the table, looked at the caller ID, did not move, and let it keep ringing.

"Jingle Bell--"

"Jingle Bell--"

No one cared, the phone kept ringing like this, the piercing phone ring seemed to shatter the eardrum, extending from the ear canal to the cerebral cortex, torturing every nerve in the brain.

Zao stood there looking at her expressionless, her face was very pale, her body was frighteningly thin, and the pair of bright eyes that used to be bright now also became dull.Zao watched her curl herself up on the sofa in the room, sitting there like a lifeless statue.

Finally, as if tired of calling, the phone stopped ringing.

The room was terribly quiet, not even the sound of breathing could be heard.

"Meow~" The kitten jumped onto Eri's lap, looked up at her, and licked Eri's face with its pink tongue.

Zao walked over to her side, bent down, and hugged her gently, "Hui Li..." He called her name next to her ear, "Stop torturing yourself like this, okay?" He held her in his arms, holding her so tightly.

He clearly felt the girl in his arms tremble slightly, Zao let go of his arms, and looked at her in his arms, just like a few years ago, she is still like a delicate porcelain doll now, but unfortunately, she has already was shattered.Now she is shattered, and she is no longer what she used to be.

Zao suddenly hugged Huili in his arms, and pressed her against his chest, it was so tight that she couldn't breathe.

It was still those big, lifeless eyes.

Still so expressionless and stiff.

It's still the same...broken heart.

During those days, as soon as she closed her eyes, her mind would be filled with those pictures, those pictures that were so heartbreaking that she could suffocate to death...

She remembered the scene where her sister and Lucy were snuggled together in the hospital ward by chance. Her sister was crying on his shoulder with a desperate expression, while he patted her shoulder gently and told her in a slow voice: "No matter what happens, I will be with you." Julie was also beside the two of them, and squeaked a few times, and then her sister suddenly broke into a smile, and they were talking and laughing. Even Julie has a lively look of jumping up and down.

That sense of alienation...it was a world she couldn't get into at all.

She remembered the kiss he gave her on the roof of the hospital, and he said "I'm sorry" to her with a pale face. Since it was already impossible, why did he give her hope again and again!She's clearly given up!I have given up completely!

I have never asked for much, but in the end, God still thinks I am too greedy.Eili closed her eyes, and leaned against the person in front of her.

When a person is sad, negativity always comes one after another, accumulating layer after layer, until the sunshine in the heart is completely covered, and there is no light. .

Sometimes I really feel that those three years of persistence now seem like a joke. It stands there, mocking me, laughing at me, and saying to me: "Look, what's the use of your hard work! You're That person has nothing in his heart! Who cares about you? Who pays attention to you? Don’t you think you are a completely redundant person in that place, that home? Lay alone in a dark corner and lick your wounds!"

This deathly silence continued until one day...

With the sound of "plop--", there was a huge sound from the room, followed by the noise of things falling down, making a mess.

Is it Eri's room? !

Zao rushed in with a stride, and saw Eili lying on the ground and the bookshelf that had accidentally collapsed.

"Hui Li!" He helped her up when she was lying on the ground, "Where did it hit you? Is there any pain?"

Eili was stunned for a moment, shaking her head, but she focused her gaze on something that fell on the ground—it was a box with exquisite appearance, which looked about the size of a ring box, because it fell on the ground, and the things inside Also fell out.

She was still sitting on the ground, leaned forward and took out something and put it in front of her eyes. After recognizing what it was, she looked at Zao with a trace of doubt.

Zao subconsciously let go of the hand supporting Huili, and stopped talking.

It was a pearl hairpin.The pearls on it have lost the soft luster of the past, and they are still a little yellow at first glance, and they don't look as beautiful as before.Eili clenched her hand, and held the hairpin even tighter, she turned her head and looked at Zao without speaking.

Zao said slowly, "Well, I've always thought about giving it to you, but I'm too busy with work... I can't take care of it."

Eri lowered her head, caressing that little pearl hairpin, why... met it at this time?To tell her that the fate between him and her is not over yet, is there still something connected between him and her?

It's such a disconnected relationship——

Eili clenched the hairpin in the palm of her hand, the sharp water chestnut pierced her palm so big, she didn't seem to feel any pain, she still held it so tightly...

God!How long are you going to torture me before you give up!

I've clearly given up on it!Obviously, he has forced himself to let go!Obviously, I no longer dare to love anymore.

Why did I encounter it at this time.

Why!

……

【Alright, Eri in this form is really cute! 】

Ryuu pinned a small pearl hairpin to Eri's temples to fix the broken hair around her ears.

Eri looked at the high-waisted doll dress on her body with some embarrassment, and then at the flower girl hairstyle that Liu Sheng matched with this skirt, thinking about how to go smoothly at Meihe's mother's wedding. Go through the whole process smoothly.

"Brother Lucy thinks it's really good for me to look like this?"

She looked at Liu Sheng with a timid voice, a little unconfident.

"Very good, little Eri is very cute."

Yes, no matter when, I am a child in your eyes.I used to want to grow up so much, but now, I regret it, I regret it very much, I would rather be a child, knowing nothing, enjoying your tenderness to my heart's content, but I am getting more and more greedy, more and more The more greedy you become, in the end, you still want your love!

This is God's punishment for me.

But do you feel,

This punishment is too heavy for me.

I really don't want much!Is it that difficult just to make you like me?

It doesn't help to say anything now.

You already have an older sister, who is pregnant with your child.

……

In the quiet night, the cold moon accompanied by the breeze cast sparse cold shadows into the ground.Looking at the starry night sky.The sky is not pure black, but an endless deep blue in the black, stretching into the distance.

That night, Zao hugged Huili all the time, such warmth lingered around her all the time, she snuggled into his arms with her lips tightly pressed together.

"I thought it was lost." After a long time, Eri moved her lips. This was the first sentence she said in the past few days, with a hint of hoarseness and unbearable dryness.

Zao tried to loosen Huili's hand that was holding the hairpin tightly all the time, and said in a deep voice, "You said it, it's very important."

[Is that something important to you? 】

【Um!Very important! 】

Unexpectedly, he remembered the words at that time for so long.

Eili shook her head slightly, "No. It's...not important anymore."

Crystal Purple's eyes narrowed, and after a long silence, Zao hugged Huili and said softly: "Since it's not important, let's put it down, it's okay to throw it away."

Huili froze for a moment, looked at Zao, his dim figure was reflected in his dim eyes, brother, is he worried about himself?

She stretched out her hand to cover his face, looked at him, her expression was a little nervous, "I...I..." She couldn't form a complete sentence in her mind, she was a little anxious, she wanted to tell him: She is fine now, no need Worry, she will be uncomfortable for a while, and she will get better soon!

She opened her mouth, and now she couldn't utter a single word that came easily to her on the phone.

So many people like to lie.

But after all... she didn't want to cheat.

Zao shook her head slightly, stretched out her hand to pat her on the back, and said softly, "Good boy, go to sleep, have a good sleep."

When I was young, no matter what happened, as long as I lay down and have a good sleep, I didn’t have to worry about anything, but now it’s different.

Sometimes, Eri misses her childhood very much, she doesn’t have to think about anything, she doesn’t want to ask for anything in particular, life is like this, the simpler it is, the happier it is.
