Huo Yunche was silent for a while, and buried his head in Ling Guang's arms. The hand holding Ling Guang's collar loosened and tightened, and then tightened and loosened. Then, a muffled voice came out: "In fact, I don't have many memories of my father. If it weren't for this illusion, I would even think that I had forgotten... I had forgotten what he looked like."

Ling Guang silently stroked Huo Yunche's long hair.

The trembling body found a boat to cross in the midst of collapse and slowly calmed down.

"Grandma said that Dad loved Mom so much that when Mom passed away, Dad lost half of his life, and the other half was brought back because of my crying when he was in despair."

"So my father gave all his remaining love to me and treated me like a treasure. It is not an exaggeration to say that he held me in his hands for fear of breaking me, and held me in his mouth for fear of melting me. Even if I wanted to pick the stars in the sky, he would probably find a way to do it."

As Huo Yunche spoke, he slightly raised his head and touched the darkness with trembling fingertips. Suddenly, dots of starlight lit up in the darkness. The starlight formed rows and actually gathered together to draw a picture. The protagonist of the picture was the "little princess" who was held high up by her father and laughed "giggle".

very nice.

A slight smile spread across Huo Yunche's face, but the next second, starlight appeared on his brows and playfully fell down his cheeks, creating rich ripples in the air.

"But there is only one thing."

Huo Yunche lowered his eyebrows slightly, hiding the sadness in his eyes.

"Although our family was not rich, we could still be considered a well-off family."

"But after I was born, my mother's health deteriorated."

"Although grandma said that mom was weak to begin with, I think she anticipated that her departure would be a blow to dad, so she used all her strength to give birth to me, just to give dad, who is still alive, a little thought."

Ling Guang couldn't help but frown when he heard this.

Huo Yunche couldn't help but laugh when she saw this. She raised her hand and gently pressed it on Ling Guang's brow, stroking it:

"Ling Guang, I don't think there's anything wrong with being born this way."

"For whatever reason."

"I am very grateful to my mother for being willing to carry me for ten months and endure all the hardships of pregnancy, and yet she was able to bring me into this world safely. Moreover, she was just a sickly woman, and she was on the verge of death when she gave birth to me."

"But instead of blaming me or hating me, she loved me and protected me."

"She was a great mother."

"It's just that, unfortunately, I was too young at that time and I don't remember her existence. All my impressions of her come from photos and my father and grandmother's oral accounts."

Huo Yunche pressed his chest and said, "And this beating heart is telling me that even though I have never recognized her, I still love her."

"Grandma said that mom died in a sudden fire."

“That day, my father took me, a one-year-old, to a nearby hospital for vaccination, while my mother stayed at home to recuperate because she was unwell.”

"And then, a little charger just took her life."

"Everything happened so fast."

"Later, grandma came from her hometown and helped my mother with her funeral. She also paid compensation for the losses of the innocent people around her who were harmed by the fire. We also moved from our original small three-bedroom apartment to an old small two-bedroom apartment."

"My mother's death became a source of worry for my father, so he quit his original job and devoted himself to the cause of firefighting, becoming a glorious firefighter. Ajiu also came to our home not long after that."

“Although life is a little tight.”

“But our life is still quite warm.”

"Until the wildfire on New Year's Day, which took the lives of countless uncles like my father."

Huo Yunche looked up with a sense of loss. It was not that she could not break free from the cycle of illusions, but she was too greedy for that little moment of warmth. Even if it was only for a short while, she wanted to stay with her father for a while longer.

New Year's Eve and family reunion dinner.

This was a story she could no longer fit into.

She just wanted to be reunited with her father, grandma, and Ajiu once again, even if it was just an illusion, that's all.

But illusions are just illusions after all.

She really shouldn't be greedy.

Huo Yunche's eyelashes trembled: "Actually, Dad didn't die in that wildfire. He came back alive. But on his way home, he encountered a gas explosion in a family's home. In order to save people, he evacuated the crowd without hesitation, but he rushed in himself."

“Then, he never came back.”

"I think he went to see his mother."

"That's what I've always told myself, and I still tell myself that."

Ling Guang lowered his eyes and looked at the girl in his arms, who was obviously sad but still smiling firmly, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.

He thought for a moment, then reached out and held Huo Yunche's face. He leaned over slightly and kissed the corner of her eye. His tongue lightly hooked the teardrop beside her and gently sucked it. Then he pulled away and whispered in her ear:

"This is the reward, Xiao Che'er."

Then, a graceful figure suddenly pressed against her forehead. The next moment, the figure collapsed and turned into clusters of flames. The flames caught their owner off guard and suddenly lit up the entire darkness.

Huo Yunche opened his eyes wide in surprise, only to see two figures suddenly appear in the sea of ​​fire.

"Mother......"

"dad......"

......

"Xiao Yunche, you finally came out!"

The moment Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong saw Huo Yunche's figure appear, they could no longer suppress their anxiety. They took a few big steps to Huo Yunche's side and hugged her.

Huo Yunche was still in a trance and had not yet come to his senses. In the eyes of outsiders, he looked as if he had exhausted all his energy, and was stupid and dull. His whole body was like an eggplant hit by frost, wilted.

Seeing this, Bei Bei and the others thought that Huo Yunche was worried because it took too long: "Little Junior Sister, don't worry, you are just the tenth one to come out of retreat, and you have completed the assessment requirements."

Bei Bei patted her shoulder to comfort her, but Huo Yunche was still distracted and didn't react at all.

"Little Yunche?" Wang Dong waved his hand in front of Huo Yunche.

"Stupid! Don't you know that little Yunche can't see yet?" Xiao Xiao pulled Wang Dong's hand and scolded him, then walked to Huo Yunche's ear with ease, leaned in close, and shouted: "Little Yunche!"

“Huh? Here! What’s the matter?” Huo Yunche was shocked.

"I told you this trick would work!" Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows and gestured to Wang Dong.

Wang Dong reluctantly took out a gold soul coin and threw it towards Xiao Xiao. Unexpectedly, the gold soul coin was intercepted by two slender fingers in mid-air.

Two little ones: ???

They looked to the side along the finger, and saw someone smilingly shaking the gold soul coin on his fingertips at them, and then arrogantly raised his hand in front of his eyes, admiring the luster of the gold soul coin.

"Xiao Yunche, can you see it?!"
