Chapter 2: The Raisin
Chapter 2
In a villa on the outskirts, a 4 or 5-year-old little girl was curled up in bed, seemingly sleeping very uneasily.
The little girl had exquisite features, a round little face, looking both well-behaved and soft and cute.
The little girl struggled for a while, then slowly opened her eyes.
There was still a blank look in her clear eyes like a little deer. The little girl rubbed her eyes and slowly woke up.
She sat blankly on the bed for a while, pouting sadly.
She seemed to have had a nightmare.
But she forgot what was in the dream...
Kids' emotions come and go quickly. She soon stopped dwelling on what she had dreamed about.
The little girl wanted to climb out of bed, but just as she started to move, there was a "pa" sound, followed immediately by a patter of noises.
She froze for a moment, then belatedly raised her own wrist. The bracelet she had been wearing was broken, and beads from the bracelet had fallen all over the floor.
Yan could no longer hold back and burst into loud cries.
"Wahhhhh!"
Soon there were footsteps in the hallway, and a girl dressed simply rushed in and hugged Yan.
She gently patted Yan's back and soothingly said, "Yan don't be afraid, AhMan is here."
Yan's cries slowly subsided, and she sobbed softly, "Sister AhMan."
AhMan stroked the little girl's hair and gently asked, "What's wrong, Yan? Did you have a nightmare?"
Sui Yan rubbed her eyes and said softly, "AhMan, my bracelet broke."
AhMan looked down and only then noticed that the bracelet Yan had been wearing was gone, and beads from the bracelet were all over the floor.
She gently pinched Yan’s face, still speaking gently, "Yan don't be afraid, AhMan will string it up again for you, okay?"
The little girl finally stopped crying, "Okay!"
Very soon she had something else on her mind. "AhMan, where is mom?"
AhMan spoke very patiently with the child, "The Madam took Ze out."
Yan looked at her aggrievedly, "I haven't gone out yet."
AhMan smiled lightly. "Because Yan is still a child!"
Yan lowered her head and said, "But I want to find Dad."
AhMan's expression changed. She said to Yan, "Yan cannot say these things in front of the Madam, do you understand?"
Sui Yan rubbed her eyes, "Oh, okay then."
AhMan rewarded her with a piece of candy, "Yan is really good."
Sui Yan sat on the edge of the bed, swinging her little short legs.
She looked at the forest outside the window, not knowing what she was thinking.
AhMan went to string a bracelet for Sui Yan. Sui Yan quietly gave herself encouragement while looking at AhMan’s back. Yan has to go out and find Dad.
When AhMan came back with the strung bracelet, she found that the little girl was gone, along with Yan’s favorite little backpack.
She had a bad premonition...
Yan was hiding behind a tree, carefully looking in the direction of her home. She didn't see anyone chasing after her, so she heaved a long sigh of relief.
She patted her little backpack, feeling the bulging candy inside, and Yan narrowed her eyes contentedly.
She thought that when she saw her brother, she would share the candy with him.
She headed firmly in the direction away from the villa.
The villa was on the outskirts, and Yan soon unknowingly entered the forest area without walking far. She was immersed in the happy mood of being about to see her father, completely unaware of the surrounding trees becoming denser.
Not until the sky grew darker and darker did the little girl finally realize something was wrong.
Sui leaned against a tree, her lips pursed tightly as she looked around.
Although she had always stayed in the villa without going out much, her mother had trained her exceptionally well. Even in this situation, she did not have a meltdown crying.
There seemed to be different sounds around her ears, rustling noises.
Sui curled up and closed her eyes with both hands over her ears, as if this would prevent her from being harmed.
The faint footsteps gradually approached, and Sui couldn't help but tremble with fear.
The footsteps stopped in front of her, and soon Sui felt a soft little thing snuggling against her leg.
She cautiously opened her eyes and inadvertently saw a white ball, like a little puppy.
She secretly stretched out her little hand to poke the "puppy." Unexpectedly, the puppy licked her familiarly.
Sui relaxed and stroked the puppy's head like AhMan stroked hers.
“Little puppy, why are you here too?” the little girl asked softly.
If it were someone else here, they would definitely be able to see that the look in this puppy's eyes was like a person's, full of surprise and recollection.
Sui directly picked up the puppy, her little hands constantly stroking its soft fur on its back.
She lowered her head, muttering, “Little puppy, you have to hurry home, or else your dad and mom will worry about you.”
The puppy looked quite helpless. Its paws were on Sui's arm as it obediently lay in her arms.
After petting the puppy enough, Sui put it down and earnestly told it, “Okay, hurry home now.” 𝚏r𝐞𝗲𝚠eb𝚗o𝐯el.com
The puppy bit Sui’s pants leg and shook it gently. Sui blinked and guessed according to what she was thinking: “Do you want to come with me?”
The puppy nodded gently and rubbed her leg again.
Sui happily picked up the puppy, “Okay, I’ll take you with me then. It was definitely you who insisted on following me, not me who insisted on taking you, okay?”
She continued talking to herself regardless of whether the puppy could understand. Suddenly looking at the puppy she said, “Yan will give the puppy a name, okay?”
The puppy looked at Sui, its eyes full of anticipation.
Sui smiled and said, “Let’s call you Ti Zi, Yan loves eating lychees the most!”
Hearing Sui say the exact same words as her past life, Ti Zi was both pleasantly surprised and helpless.
It rubbed its head against Sui in her arms, as if agreeing to the name.
At the same time, in a villa district in the distant city, a little girl pulled her mother and said, "Mom, do we have Ti Zi at home?"
The little girl's mother said, "Ning Ning wants to eat lychees? Then Mom will go out and buy some in a bit."
The little girl nodded obediently, watching her mother's back. She thought, Sister Yan, I will definitely protect you well this time.
Sui did not know any of this at the moment. When her excitement passed, she became scared again.
She hugged the white furball tightly, huddling with it under the tree.
She kept whispering, "Ti Zi, it's so scary here, I'm a little afraid... But I will definitely protect you well!"
Ti Zi just kept rubbing her with its head, as if to soothe her fears.
Sui's voice gradually weakened. "I don't seem to remember where Dad's house is anymore, what if we can't find it?"
Speaking, she slowly fell asleep.
