He said so. The breeze blew by, like a transparent river, bringing his words into my ears and his blessings into my heart. "...Your arrangements are always surprising, but they are also so to my liking, Xiwang." Eden opened his mouth, but in the end he could only smile, with a little sigh and a little happiness, and responded softly. "It would be best if you like it~" “Can I open it and take a look?” "nature." With Xiwang's permission, Eden slowly untied the gift ribbon on the package and took out a...dark brown dress. "........." Xiwang's gift surprised everyone for a moment, and Eden's father's gaze instantly swept over with a hint of subtlety and scrutiny.
“…Can I try?” Eden was a little stunned at first, but then he seemed to understand something from the past. He smiled, glanced at the simple changing room next to him, and asked. "Okay~" Without paying attention to the subtle and meaningful gazes around him, Xi Wang nodded, seeming to be quite confident in his work. Immediately, Eden walked quickly into the locker room, seeming to be impatient. After a while, everyone saw her, attracting everyone's attention like a star. (We won’t describe the dress here, you can think of it as Eden’s dress in the game) It was standard, well-fitting, and it highlighted Eden's beauty very clearly. Everything was so "just right"... except that the look in Eden's father's eyes when he looked at Xiwang was a little questioning and stern. Hmm... I'm afraid he was thinking about how Xiwang obtained Eden's body data. "...Thank you, I like it very much, Xiwang." Even though she didn't face the mirror to see her current appearance, Eden had already gotten the answers she needed from the expressions and attitudes of the people around her. She smiled, raised her hand to slightly push her hair behind her ear, and walked to Xiwang's side. Silently, her fingertips gently slid across his wrist, brushed across his palm, overlapped with his fingertips, crossed them, and then interlocked their fingers. "It would be best if you like it~" Xiwang smiled, and then walked briskly with Eden to the musical instruments, calling his former classmates to come together. Everyone also smiled gently, sat in their seats, and picked up their instruments. "Well... let's sing, Eden. It's been a while since we sang together~" "Yeah, okay." Eden nodded, responding as usual. "Just this time, I have to go first~" "It's natural."
"Well, then the tune this time... let's incorporate some appropriate emotions." Eden glanced around, taking in all the beautiful scenery. To reunite with old friends and to be with soulmates. Then, she smiled, lowered her eyes slightly, and spoke softly. ????~ A wonderful lawn concert begins... ………… ……………… "Sister, are you unhappy?" Ling, who was sitting aside and preparing food for the dinner party and the celebratory cake, tilted her head in confusion and looked at Sakura who was in a daze. "Hmm? Me? No." Ying, who was awakened by Ling's shout, was stunned for a moment, then she withdrew her gaze from Xiwang and Yiden who were still singing, and began to organize the tableware that would be used later. "Really? My eyes were fixed on Brother Xiwang just now and didn't move..." "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get the drinks... they will definitely be very tired and thirsty after they finish playing." "Oh……" Ling didn't suspect anything and just helped obediently, and Ying fell silent again, but... "........." Sakura's gaze would still drift to Xiwang and Eden from time to time. Especially when she saw the smile on Xi Wang's face, she always felt a sense of inexplicable loss and a hint of joy. Am I... jealous? Or... blessing? Sakura was a little confused. However, I still feel somewhat... unwilling... It's so strange, why would I have such an idea? Ying shook her head, her long pink hair like cherry blossoms fluttering and blending among the falling maple leaves... and in the end, she could only look away and focus on the things at hand, no longer looking at them, or rather... no longer looking at him. Chapter 5673 It's too late... () [Eden's birthday party was a great success. You vaguely feel that you and Eden have become a little closer... Well, no, if you get any closer, you'll almost become one. You have to be careful~] [In the middle of the meal, you showed off your skills by making some snacks, which drew praises from the people around you... Even Sakura, who was feeling a little down for some reason, cheered up a little and smiled.] [As expected, sweetness can bring joy to people... I just wish Eden's father's eyes were a little kinder.]
[Afterwards, you and Eden returned to your respective paths... You are still on your respective paths of pursuing your "wishes". Even if you stop for each other for a while in the middle, you will not be attached to each other for long, because you know that your light will shine on each other, and you will meet at the "end"] [You start traveling around the world again, playing on the streets of various cities, attracting passers-by to stop and attract other people's attention, bringing them some relaxation and music, and taking away some troubles and stories from them] [Of course, you are sometimes lucky, and the city you are going to and the city Eden is going to happen to overlap... This is the happiest time for you and Eden, because it means that you can meet again, and even... you can bring some "little surprises" to others.] [You remember that one time when Eden held a signing event, you happened to be in the same city as her. You agreed to go out for a walk together after the event to appreciate the city’s scenery, so you chose to stop and wait at a convenience store.] [As a result, when you were taking a break, you heard two female students whispering beside you. One was lively and the other was calm. The lively one complained about not being able to get Eden's autograph just now, even though she was almost in line... while the calm one was comforting her softly.] [You felt a little amused, so you subconsciously struck up a conversation with them, relying on your identity as a "fan of Eden" to chat with them... Of course, you were slightly disguised at this moment, and were also wearing a mask, so the two of them didn't recognize you directly, but one of them was a little confused about your voice, as if she had heard it somewhere before.] [As for why you want to cross-dress... isn't it obvious? In the next period of time, you still want to enjoy a quiet "two-person world" with Eden, but you can't be caught by those nosy media.] [Perhaps it was your personality and politeness that won the favor of the two. The lively student did not resist your approaching, but after a few tentative questions, he happily chatted with you, while the calm student kept silent, as if he didn't know what to say.] [Later, the lively student became a little too talkative and asked you your name. She also introduced herself and her friends. From this, you also learned their names - Carol and Hua] [However, when you told them your name, they were all stunned. Carol didn't react for a moment and joked that you had the same name as a famous star... Then when she saw that you didn't react and even looked at her with a little smile, she was stunned again, and the expression on her face became stunned] [I don’t know if it was just a coincidence, but Eden, who had already finished his disguise, had already walked in. He looked at you as if he had telepathy with you, then walked to your side and whispered your name in a very soft voice.] [Carol and Hua, who were sitting nearby, also heard Eden's whispers and recognized Eden's voice... Fortunately, you signaled them in advance, and Hua covered Carol's mouth in time, otherwise Carol's screams would have attracted people from the entire neighborhood.] [Luckily, Carol soon understood why you and Eden were dressing up. She suppressed her excitement and collected your and Eden's signatures as smoothly as possible. Then she quickly said goodbye to you and dragged Hua away - if she stayed any longer, she was afraid that she would not be able to help but cheer.] [In addition to this interesting incident, you also remember that at one of Eden's concerts, you and Eden discussed an interesting way to appear and perform together, so you quietly mingled in the audience... At that time, there were two teenagers sitting next to you.] [One is a sunny and enthusiastic white-haired boy, who greeted you when he sat down and chattered about something else. The other is an unusually quiet gray-haired boy who nodded at you and responded to his companion's mumblings skillfully.] [In the middle of Eden's singing, the white-haired boy seemed particularly excited. After all, he found that Eden would always glance in their direction from time to time, which made him want to cheer excitedly several times... Fortunately, his friends restrained him, otherwise the scene would have been very funny.] [Of course, when it was your turn to appear on stage, when the spotlight shone on you next to them, when you took off your mask and sang with your gentle voice like the wind, they were so shocked that they were speechless... They could only stare blankly at you as you slowly stood up, calmly walked to the stage and stood shoulder to shoulder with Eden] [Honestly, their expressions were really interesting. I believe they will remember this experience forever.] [In this process, you naturally did not forget to continue your "duty". While harvesting stories, you followed your inspiration to write new songs. At the same time, you did not forget the original agreement.] [As time goes by, the song you wrote for Xilin has been perfected and mailed to Xilin's father, hoping that he can bring it to Xilin and let the father and daughter meet.] [It is said that Xilin's father was a little flustered when he first received the song in the mail, and he seemed not to be mentally prepared. But after a brief thought, he still accepted it solemnly, packed his luggage firmly, changed into clean clothes, and set off to reunite with his daughter.] 【only……】 -------- Snapped! ! ! "You still remember to come back?! You still have the nerve to come back?!" Following a loud slap, the restaurant owner... or rather, Xilin's aunt glared at the man in front of her, and the accusations in her mouth never stopped. "Where have you (expletive) been all these years?! Do you know my sister she...she!! How dare you come back?!" "……sorry."
The man neither refuted nor resisted. He just lowered his head silently and endured the accusation he deserved. "Will an apology be enough?! Can an apology erase all the mistakes you've made over the years?! Do you know what the child's situation is?! She has never seen her father from the beginning... from the beginning! There's not even a photo of you left. What on earth are you thinking?!" "Since birth, people have said that a child is a fatherless child. Do you think that child can bear it? Can a child bear it?! Can my sister bear it?! Where were you at that time?! Where were you when they needed you the most?! Dead!? If you're not dead, why didn't you come back? If you're not dead, how dare you come back now?!" "Do you know what happened to that child after my sister left? She was in a trance, and kept repeating that her mother would come back all day long. She didn't sleep every night, and kept the lights on waiting there, just worried that her mother wouldn't be able to find the house when she came back. Where are you at this time?!" "And even if the child has no impression of you, he will miss you all day long because of my sister's nagging... Do you have the nerve to let a child care about someone who almost only exists in imagination?!" "Why are you back now?! You can't make it out there, so you come back again?!" "Get lost! That child doesn't need a father like you!!! If you dare to disturb her, if you dare to touch a hair of that child, I will never let you go!!!" "Alright, alright... slow down, slow down..." The restaurant owner hurriedly comforted his wife, while frantically signaling the man in front of him with his eyes to leave quickly. The man hesitated for a while. The boss lady's anger and scolding weighed on his heart, and the thought of escape came to his mind again... But in the end, he still stood where he was, holding the express package that Xi Wang had mailed to him tightly in his arms, as if this could provide him with some support and strength. "I... just want to see her and then give this... to him." "What is this? Money? Do you think the money you've saved this year can make up for the mistakes you've made over the years?" "No...just..." "Forget it. I don't care what's in there. You're going to give it to the kid, right? You can put the stuff down and get out of here." "...I want to give it to her personally." "you dare?!" “Please…I beg you…” the man begged. "I just... want to hand it to her in person, recognize her, and tell her... that she still has a father..." "........." The proprietress looked at his sincere expression and the tears in his eyes, and was silent for a while, then slapped him again. "shameless." "Also, what does it look like for a man to cry?" Although she was still scolding, her tone had slowed down a little, as if she had relaxed. "Okay, okay, calm down... calm down... let me talk to him." "...If you dare to take him to see that kid, I will never forgive you!" "Yes, yes, calm down... and have a little cocoa, how about that?" The boss comforted his wife, took her to the kitchen, poured her a cup of her favorite hot cocoa to ease her anxious mood, and signaled the man with his eyes to go to the backyard quickly... This time, the man did not insist, but just walked to the backyard silently and waited.
After a while, the boss slowly walked out, carefully closed the door to the backyard, then walked to the man, looked at him carefully, and then shook his head helplessly. "You know where the kid's room is, don't you?"
