Chapter 2053 Tears and Pearls
"Ouch~"
Taotie lazily made a sound.
His body was shaking.
The sun is warm again.
The eyes under the armpits are half open and half closed.
The aura emanating from his body was lazy and pleasant.
……
Xiao Xiao smiled.
From Ruo Sue's profile, he noticed the curiosity on Fei Fei's face.
He asked clearly, "Do you want to try it too?"
“Coffee~”
There seemed to be light in Philip's eyes.
……
Since Taotie liked it and Feifei was interested, Xiao Xiao simply assigned a lifebuoy to the remaining monsters.
There happened to be four lifebuoys on the boat.
One for each monster.
This saves these monsters from being unwilling to use a lifebuoy with other monsters and causing trouble again.
Although it seems a bit "wasteful" for Abai and Xiao Taotie to have a lifebuoy alone?
Seeing several monsters skillfully lying on the lifebuoy, with lazy expressions on their faces, Xiao Xiao had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu, as if he was the principal of a kindergarten.
He shook his head in amusement.
Immediately, his expression dimmed slightly, and he had no idea what he was going to do.
Now is not the time to slack off.
The catfish has never found any trace of Xiaomei.
He lowered his eyes, and the blue water made slight waves in his eyes.
It was getting dark.
The sunrise on the sea is beautiful.
The sunset is also so beautiful that it makes your heart sway.
Deep and light rose red and orange blend into each other.
Beautiful colors bloom on the sea.
Boundless.
Very magnificent.
It can't help but shock people.
Xiao Xiao retracted his gaze from the setting sun.
Looking out over the sea.
Xiaomei still didn't show up.
It's because Mr. Zhao didn't come.
Or...even if Mr. Zhao comes this time, he will probably not be able to see Xiaomei?
He suddenly had this suspicion.
After so many days, as long as Xiaomei was watching nearby, he didn't think he would not be able to find it.
Even if he didn't notice it, there were still so many monsters around him.
They are more sensitive to demonic energy than he is.
But they didn't find it either.
So... the most likely thing is that Xiaomei didn't come here at all.
Why?
The agreement between Mr. Zhao and Xiaomei has lasted for decades.
He didn't think Xiaomei would forget.
So...did something happen to Xiaomei?
Xiao Xiao's brows wrinkled slightly.
……
However, there is no monster to be found, so all guesses are just guesses.
It's also possible that Xiaomei suddenly doesn't want to go to the appointment.
Of course, this possibility is extremely low.
He did not doubt the friendship between the old man and the monster.
……
"I was delayed by something..."
Xiao Xiao murmured, "We are still in trouble..."
He sighed.
Things get troublesome.
He really thought that he would be able to see Xiaomei as long as he got here.
The only problem is to let the other party understand that he is here on behalf of Mr. Zhao.
……
At night, Xiao Xiao lay in his sleeping bag and looked at the starry sky above.
There are many more stars than in the city, blinking and twinkling in the velvet night.
The sky is very high.
The star seems very close.
It seemed that as long as he stretched out his hand, he could pick off a star.
……
The moonlight was like frost, shining on his face.
For sleep, such moonlight is a bit annoying.
Xiao Xiao pulled off the blindfold on his head.
The darkness before him satisfied him.
Soon, Xiao Xiao's breathing became calmer.
……
The waves rise and fall without knowing how tired they are.
A wave rises and a wave falls.
Layers upon layers.
The subtle sound of waves echoed throughout the island.
……
At night, the color of the sea water becomes darker and darker.
The stars reflected in it also shimmered with little bits of light.
Let the sea water have deep and shallow color changes.
Suddenly, a different light loomed.
It was... pink-gold light.
……
"Wow~"
Xiaomei stuck her head out of the sea.
It looked left and right.
Soon, it saw the sleeping bag on the beach.
Its eyes lit up.
"咿~"......
Xiao Xiao's eyes moved slightly.
He reached up and took off his blindfold.
Get up and sit up.
Because of his movement, several monsters woke up.
……
“Coffee~”
Feifei cried softly.
He rubbed his head against Xiao Xiao's arm that was resting on the beach.
Xiao Xiao touched the head of the coquettish little monster.
"You guys should rest."
……
Xiao Xiao unzipped the sleeping bag.
stood up.
The evening air on the island is still a bit warm.
The moon is clear and the stars are bright.
He clearly saw the smile on the little girl's face not far away turning into doubt and vigilance after seeing his face.
He smiled gently.
"Xiao Mei."
He approached slowly.
The monster who was about to retreat paused when he heard the familiar name.
"Hello."
Feifei jumped on Xiao Xiao's shoulders.
Almost at the same time, Xiao Xiao hugged the little white fox that jumped into his arms.
All right.
Then let’s do it together.
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved.
They must also be a little curious about Xiaomei and Abai.
……
"It was Mr. Zhao Lei who asked me to come here."
Hearing the familiar name again, Xiaomei unconsciously moved forward a few points.
Zhao Lei......
……
Xiao Xiao walked up to Xiaomei.
He crouched down.
Xiaomei did not avoid it.
He just looked at him blankly.
Where is Zhao Lei?
He is not Zhao Lei.
……
"Due to some unexpected circumstances, Mr. Zhao and Zhao Lei were unable to come."
Xiao Xiao spoke very slowly.
"He asked me to come over."
"Explain it to you for him."
"I also hope you don't have to wait in vain."
"He doesn't want you to be angry with him."
"If I really can't come, Zhao Lei would also like to come see you."
"He cares about you."
……
"Woo~"
Xiaomei pursed her lips.
It probably understood what the human said.
Because it has had more contact with Zhao Lei, it can understand most human languages.
……
Zhao Lei is not coming.
Xiaomei felt a little aggrieved.
It finally slipped out.
I got here quickly and slowly.
Halfway through, I took the wrong direction because I was too impatient.
I have been worried that I am late... worried that Zhao Lei has already left...
Worried that Zhao Lei would be angry with it.
As a result, it didn't see Zhao Lei.
But it’s not that it came late, of course, it did come late...
Xiaomei's brain is a little confused.
It shook its head.
It's because Zhao Lei didn't come at all.
He didn't come...
……
Thinking about how anxious I have been these past few days-
“Plop~”
The tears in the corners of his eyes instantly turned into pearls and fell into the sea.
Xiao Xiao was stunned.
"Giggle~"
The fish quickly caught the two pearls.
Then he swam in front of Xiao Xiao.
"Giggle~"
The fish poke out of the sea.
Xiao Xiao reached out and took two pearls.
The round and plump pearls have a soft and hazy glow under the moonlight.
He smiled bitterly.
His eyebrows became a bit gentler.
"Don't cry."
Xiaomei opened her eyes in confusion.
Tears continued to flow from the corners of its eyes.
Then it turned into pearls.
"Giggle~giggle~"
The fish nimbly caught one pearl after another.
ps: Thank you Qianqiong Qianjue for the reward~(*︶*)!
