Chapter 90 Second Path of Exile 31
Chapter 90: The Road to Exile 31
"Sit down, I'll pour you some water."
Yu Jing picked up the kettle on the table and generously poured a glass of water for everyone.
"Lu Li's father and I used to live in Qinghe Oasis. The oasis was very small. After living in a few years, the oasis began to dry up. Lu Li's father also died in a mission. Later, through a friend's introduction, I met my current husband. He is a construction worker and is responsible for the infrastructure work of Longyan Oasis, so I moved here with him."
Yu Jing said a few words lightly, explained the causes and consequences clearly, and said to them: "My husband had a task at that time and went to Longyan in advance. I made an appointment with him to go to Longyan beforehand, but unexpectedly, Lu Li suddenly fell ill and delayed for a few days... During that time, the city was very chaotic, and there was no doctor, and there was no medicine to cure it. I watched Lu Li lose his anger. Later, I had to take Lu Li's younger brother away."
Yu Jing looked at Lu Li sitting next to Shi Xianyu, with a complicated expression on her face.
"I didn't expect this child to survive... Thank you for saving her. Longyan has worked very hard all the way."
Shi Xianyu smiled politely, "No, Xiaoli is very well-behaved and sensible, and she didn't cause us any trouble."
As she said that, she took out her suitcase and schoolbag and said to Yu Jing: "These are the clothes and daily necessities that Xiaoli often wears, as well as some story books and stationery."
Yu Jing glanced lightly, "Thank you."
Shi Xianyu opened her mouth, a little unaware of what to say. The other party's attitude was much colder than she expected. Although she didn't expect the other party to be grateful, but... how could she say it? After all, Yu Jing didn't seem to be excited at all after sending her biological daughter back.
Maybe, this is her personality? Not good at speaking?
After sitting on the sofa for a while, it seemed that it was time to say goodbye, but Shi Xianyu was still worried and felt a little uneasy.
Yu Jing picked up the son beside her and said to them: "Sorry, I'm going to coax the child to bed. I'm the only one in the family to take care of the child. Now that Xiaoli is back, there is one more child and there is more things to do, so I won't keep you more."
"Since that's the case, then I won't disturb you." Ye Liuyun stood up and showed Yu Jing his ID, "If you have any trouble, you can contact me. As long as we are within our ability, we will do our best to help."
Yu Jing nodded, and her tone was still calm: "Thank you."
Shi Xianyu pursed her lips and couldn't help but remind: "We have contacted the nursery, and Xiaoli can go back to class at any time. If you are too busy, you can also send her to the nursery. Then we live in the team community. You can come to us at any time. Xiaoli knows the address."
Yu Jing said politely, "Thank you", with no emotion in his expression, and it seemed that he had no intention of finding them.
Shi Xianyu looked at Lu Li again.
The little girl sat obediently on the sofa and was still smiling at her, and she did not show any inappropriateness because of the change of environment.
...They are just mother and daughter, what are she worried about?
Shi Xianyu sighed in his heart, stood up and left Yu Jing's home with Ye Liuyun and Lin Yuan.
…………
Ye Liuyun started the car and returned to the team community. The car was extremely silent all the way, and no one spoke.
After a long time, Shi Xianyu couldn't help but whisper: "Xiaoli's mother... is different from what I imagined."
Ye Liuyun, who was driving, nodded, "Well... it's different from what I imagined, it seems quite cold."
Lin Yuan said, "I originally planned that if Lu Li's mother was unable to raise her or was unwilling to raise her, then we could explain the whole story and then we would send Lu Li to the nursery. However, after contact, the other party expressed his willingness to raise her and urged me to send my daughter back as soon as possible."
"This is strange..." Ye Liuyun couldn't help but mutter, "Since we are urging us, it means she cares about Lu Li, but why didn't she see Lu Li, and she didn't see how happy she was?"
"Yes..." Shi Xianyu frowned gently and whispered, "When she saw Lu Li, I didn't feel that she was happy, happy, excited, and so on, she was really cold."
Lin Yuan glanced at her and said, "Don't think about it. No matter what, she is Lu Li's mother."
Shi Xianyu heard this and nodded slowly.
Yes, no matter what kind of person Yu Jing is, she is Lu Li’s mother. Lu Li should live with her mother, and outsiders have no right to interfere.
The mission in this world was completed like this, but Shi Xianyu did not have the sense of accomplishment of completing the mission at all.
The feeling of loss always lingers in my heart, vaguely feeling that things should not end like this.
"I think about going to see Lu Li in a few days." Shi Xianyu said to the two in the car, "Although she has been sent back, I still feel uneasy. Wait for a few more days, let's go to see Lu Li?"
Ye Liuyun nodded gently, "Well, then let's go and have a look in a few days. Actually, I'm a little uneasy, and I always feel that something is strange."
Lin Yuan looked out the car window in silence. The villa that was gradually moving away was only lights on the first floor, and it was silent under the darkness.
There are neither tears of reunion after a long separation nor laughter of family reunion.
…………
After returning to the RV, Shi Xianyu was always in a low mood.
Usually she would read story books and play puzzle games with Lu Li at night. Now that Lu Li is not here, she looks empty and very quiet in the RV.
I don’t know what Lu Li is doing now.
She sat on the sofa chair for a while, and her eyes fell on the kitchen counter with two small pots of potted plants - sand mixed in the soil, the plants seemed not to grow so fast, but they were still alive.
Today I was busy packing my luggage, but I forgot these two pots of plants. I have to remember to bring them to Lu Li tomorrow. Lu Li likes these two pots of small things the most.
Yu Jing lives in a good place, and the water for watering flowers should not be a burden, but the time I went there today was wrong. I didn’t see Yu Jing’s husband, and I didn’t know what kind of person the other party was, and whether he would be good to Lu Li… What if Lu Li had a conflict with his younger brother?…No, the little boy was only three years old, and Lu Li was so obedient and would not have conflicts…
Shi Xianyu was in a mess. She thought it would be better for her to go to bed as soon as possible, otherwise she would be tortured to death by these messy thoughts.
Lying on the bed, placing the pillow right, and a corner of paper is exposed under the pillow.
She picked up the pillow and found a painting underneath.
It was the painting "My Home" painted by Lu Li. When I saw it last time, it was just a simple graffiti. Now the picture is much richer. Not only are there paintings of RVs, big flower lizards, flowers, plants and trees, but also two more villains.
Shi Xianyu thought about it and found that the two extra villains should be Ye Liuyun and Lin Yuan.
A child’s nature is so simple and straightforward. Whoever treats her well will paint whom she draws in her “home”.
Shi Xianyu couldn't help but want to laugh.
However, she smiled and fell into doubt again: Why has Lu Li never painted Yu Jing?
? The name of the next world is confirmed! It is called "Encompetent". Guess what the subject is? Haha!
