Chapter 275: She Was Just Like an Outsider
Could the little girl from back then be An Zhixin?
Since it had happened seven years ago, Mu Xiaoxiao could not remember many details of the incident. She only vaguely remembered that a little girl had appeared then, but she had not put too much thought into it because she had thought that the girl had just been passing by coincidentally.
Little did she know that Yin Shaojie would still remember the little girl after all these years.
Could it be that he had been searching for the little girl all that time?
Not knowing why, a knot was forming in her heart as Mu Xiaoxiao felt slightly gloomy.
Suddenly, she was really curious to know what had happened between Yin Shaojie and the little girl in the time that she had gone to look for the adults.
Something must have happened.
Otherwise, Yin Shaojie would not have remembered the little girl.
Mu Xiaoxiao’s expression was slightly troubled as she looked at An Zhixin. It was a stark contrast from An Zhixin’s happy countenance.
Yin Shaojie had not noticed the slight change in Mu Xiaoxiao’s expression as he was waiting for An Zhixin to think.
Having heard what she said, he knew that she remembered.
Thus, he smiled and said, “Yes, I am that little boy.”
An Zhixin was visibly excited and joyful. Clearly, she had always remembered that little boy.
She had just never expected that they would meet again in such a situation after seven years. She was elated.
At this moment, she let down her guard toward Yin Shaojie as if toward a friend she had not seen for a long time, and she became much more cordial.
An Zhixin could hardly believe it as she said, “How did you recognize me? After so many years, you still recognized me?”
She could not recognize him when she first saw him.
Yin Shaojie said, “Actually, you didn’t change much. I can still see your younger self when looking at you.”
“But I couldn’t recognize you…” An Zhixin swallowed her saliva as she said embarrassedly.
Seeing their joyful conversation, Mu Xiaoxiao was on pins and needles.
She was clearly at the scene seven years ago, yet she could not even partake in the conversation.
She felt just like… an outsider.
At this moment, the nurse came to pull out the needle from An Zhixin, temporarily interrupting their conversation.
Yin Shaojie finally turned to see that Mu Xiaoxiao was looking dejected sitting beside him.
Suddenly, he stood up and said to An Zhixin, “It’s pretty late. You should sleep in the hospital tonight. Don’t worry about the expenses as I have already paid for them. We’re leaving then, and we will see you again tomorrow.”
With that said, he held Mu Xiaoxiao’s hand.
An Zhixin could not help but stare blankly at the two hands holding each other.
She smiled faintly, nodding as she said, “Yeah, I got it. Oh yeah. Thank you for tonight.”
When she brought up the night’s incident, her eyes grew dull.
“Don’t worry about anything. I’ll help you,” Yin Shaojie said as if he knew what was on her mind.
An Zhixin was slightly surprised as she looked at him, visibly moved.
His calm and confident countenance seemed as if nothing was a problem to him.
Yin Shaojie then took Mu Xiaoxiao and left.
In the car, he suddenly reached out to pinch Mu Xiaoxiao’s cheek.
However, Mu Xiaoxiao did not have a huge reaction as she simply turned to look at him, still looking slightly dejected.
“Silly girl, what’s wrong? Smile a little,” he said.
Mu Xiaoxiao swatted his hand away, pursed her lips, and said, “I don’t want to smile.”
