Chapter 1144 The so-called promise
Cao Xuan had a funny look on his face, "Because I think that animal is so pitiful."
"After all, I get a lot of Christmas gifts, but it doesn't get any."
"So, I decided to give one of the Christmas gifts I received to -."
At this point, Cao Xuan's voice stopped abruptly.
There was a bit of hesitation and uncertainty on his face, "Hey, did I give the gift away in the end?"
"I can't remember..."
Cao Xuan knocked his head hard, "Yes, I didn't send it out!"
"I'm tired of playing with that animal."
"Children have limited energy after all. I should have fallen asleep later."
"I told my parents about it after I woke up."
"However, an animal like an elk lying down at the window on the sixth floor sounds a bit like the words of a child."
"Of course parents won't take it seriously."
"Besides, they saw me sleeping when they came back, which made them think that I might have regarded the dream as reality."
Cao Xuan spread his hands, "I didn't believe it was my dream at first, but I couldn't find the elk-like animal."
"There is no evidence that it ever came to the house."
"After several attempts to no avail, I began to doubt myself."
"Maybe that elk-like animal was indeed my dream."
"I also told my parents that I promised to give that elk-like animal a gift on Christmas Day."
"Then, my mother teased me and said that she was going to take me out to play and have a big dinner that day. Since I said I wanted to give the animal a gift, let's just stay at home."
"I wasn't happy when I heard it."
"Children, who wants to stay at home when others go out to play?"
“Also, at that time, because my parents were working, there weren’t many opportunities for the family to go out and play.”
"So, when I heard that the family was going out on Christmas Day, and I almost believed my parents, the elk-like animal was just a dream of mine."
"I will."
Cao Xuan did not continue, but Xiao Xiao already understood what he meant, "Do you just think that the elk-like animal was your dream?"
"Yeah."
Cao Xuan nodded, "And it never appeared again."
"Isn't it my dream or what?"
"I actually thought about having such a dream again."
"Although it was in a dream, I promised to give it a Christmas gift."
"Although it's late that year, I still want to give it a gift."
"Moreover, I wanted to tell it at that time that I would definitely give it a real Christmas gift next year."
"Not a Christmas gift from someone else, nor a belated Christmas gift."
"I will prepare a Christmas gift just for it."
"But, I never dreamed about it again."
Cao Xuan's face looked a bit emotional, "How long can a child's memory last?"
"Because I never dreamed about that animal, I quickly forgot about it."
"It's only at Christmas time that I think of this somewhat special dream."
The scene fell silent for a while.
Cao Xuan shook his head and looked at Xiao Xiao, "These are really all."
"I didn't expect that my memory was pretty good, but I actually remembered it all."
Cao Xuan was a little proud, "Memory really needs stimulation."
"Thank you for wasting your time."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"No, I'm actually quite happy to think about it. After all, this is a special experience in my childhood."
Cao Xuan grinned.
After being delayed for so long, on the way back to the dormitory, there was no one around.
Xiao Xiao looked at the time, and it was almost time for the access control.
He looked up, and the snow that had stopped for a while began to fall again. It seems to be glowing in the night.
very beautiful.
"Hiss~"
Xiao Xiao raised his hand.
White Snake leaned out, its bright red vertical pupils reflecting white snowflakes.
"Hiss~Master Xiao Xiao."
It turned to look at Xiao Xiao, "Why did you ask that human just now?"
White Snake tilted its head, showing a bit of cuteness.
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows slightly curved, "It's just out of my own curiosity."
"After listening to what Yu Hu said, I also want to hear what the other person involved has to say."
"Perhaps, next time I see Yihu, I can tell her something she doesn't know."
"However, if it hears Cao Xuan treating it as a dream, it will probably be angry, right?"
Obviously Yu Hu is real, and that memory is also real.
"Hiss~ Stupid Human~"
White Snake spat out the snake letter, with a hint of careless coolness in his voice.
"Aren't monsters just like a dream to most humans?"
The little white fox flicked its tail, half-opening its eyes, and the rose-red light flashed away.
"The fate between monsters and humans is short-lived."
"Although there are exceptions."
"But that's the case in most cases."
"Because humans never know when they will lose sight of monsters."
"Moreover, compared to monsters, human lifespan is really too short."
The little white fox stretched out its paws to catch the falling snow, "The ones left behind are always monsters."
"Human beings always make promises easily and forget promises easily."
"Promise. Aren't the so-called promises something that must be fulfilled once it is made?"
"Humans also like to deny the existence of monsters."
"I can't tell whether it's true or false even if I have personal contact with it. From this point of view, human beings are really stupid."
It rarely agreed with White Snake's words.
Xiao Xiao smiled, "Stupid?"
The monster's slightly harsh words made him unable to refute.
Because even if what they say does not represent all human beings, it is still part of the truth.
"It is indeed difficult for human beings to stick to their own ideas, and they are easily influenced by the outside world."
He doesn't deny this.
However, he raised his face and felt the coldness of the snowflakes falling on his face, "Humans like this are interesting, aren't they?"
"Because it's hard to guess what his choice will be?"
"Either remember it, or forget it."
"Everything is unknown."
"Besides, there are also humans who will definitely fulfill their promises as long as they make them."
Xiao Xiao suddenly thought of the old lady he met in Fenglin.
Even though he died soon, at the last moment of his life, the old man still came to the maple forest where he met the mandarin duck again.
Take the box of cookies you promised with you.
Even until the end, the old man never saw the monster again.
However, the old man's biscuits were handed over to Yuan Tao through his hands.
He watched Luo Tao finish the box of biscuits.
The old man can be regarded as fulfilling his promise back then.
ps: Thank you Venus and Ming for the reward (*︶*)!
