Chapter 1166 Little Moon
Chapter 1166 Little Moon
It was winter that day, but the sun was still shining brightly on the mountain.
A small figure walked onto the bridge.
She grabbed his robe in the crowd.
"Uncle, I can't find grandma."
Gong Chen and I lowered our heads at the same time.
Looking at her tear-stained face, Gong Chen thought of the stars.
He subconsciously held the little girl's hand.
The warm little hand responded to him, making his heart ache a little.
Xingxing had done the same thing, but he was afraid of being seen by others, so he pushed her away.
The stars must have been very sad at that time.
The abbot was right, there was no way to forgive his guilt here.
No matter where he is, every day of his life is a sin and torment for him.
But he deserves it.
Gong Chen looked at himself and then at the little girl.
The age of four or five is exactly the age of stars in another time and space.
When she smiled, her eyes were as bright as the stars.
It's completely unlike the lifeless eight-year-old stars in this time and space.
Gong Chen missed Xingxing and Lin Zhiyi very much.
But he couldn't control his body and could only be trapped in a nightmare-like space and time.
He lifted his robe, slowly squatted down, and brushed the dust off the little girl's pants.
Each blow felt like a slap on his heart.
He even felt guilty for being nice to other children.
I feel guilty that I haven't treated the stars well for a single day.
He raised his eyes and said, "Let's go. I'll take you to find grandma."
The little girl followed him around like a chatterbox.
"Uncle, my name is Xiaoyue."
"Little Moon?"
"Yes, because mom and dad said I am the one and only moon." said the little girl proudly.
"..."
He savored her name, his lips trembling.
His stars are also unique.
Little Moon raised her eyes and smiled, "My grandma lives at the foot of the mountain. I know you. My grandma said you were a weirdo. You live here in a daze every day."
"Yeah." He nodded.
"Uncle, why do you live here? Are you lost like me? Won't your family look for you? My grandma must be very worried now." Xiaoyue said.
He paused and said bitterly, "I have no family left."
Little Moon widened her eyes and stopped talking.
She just held his hand tightly.
He could feel the child's kindness.
But he didn't dare to respond, as he felt he was unworthy.
He found the old woman who was looking for someone in the front yard. After handing the child to her, he turned around and hid back in his room.
The room was simple, with photos of Lin Zhiyi and Xingxing on the table.
He sat on the edge of the bed, holding the photo in his arms.
Gong Chen stood beside him, looking at the photo and recalling the scene where Lin Zhiyi initially resisted him but was forced by him.
He felt something pressing down on his chest.
In another time and space, after Gong Chen and Lin Zhiyi resolved their misunderstandings and got together, he felt more relieved than regret.
Fortunately, Lin Zhiyi still has feelings for me.
But at this moment, being thankful was more like a sharp knife piercing his heart.
Lin Zhiyi here also had feelings for him, but she got such an ending.
Gong Chen couldn't accept himself like this.
He wished he could die immediately like this.
But for me, living is the punishment.
The tranquility and kindness here reminded him what a terrible person he was.
He couldn't even protect his wife and daughter.
In this way, Gong Chen sat with him all night.
When sunlight filled the room again, Gong Chen discovered that there was a lot more silver in his hair.
Gong Chen's body also became a little lighter.
Is he going to disappear?
Go back?
In the excitement, the door was quietly pushed open a crack.
The little head popped in.
She carried a basket with difficulty, walked through Gong Chen's body, and came in front of her other self.
"uncle."
Hearing the voice, he was stunned, as if he heard the word "Dad".
He immediately turned his head and looked at the little girl coming towards him, and he seemed to see stars.
A beam of light shone through the crack in the door behind her, and it seemed as if a familiar figure was looking at him in the light.
"Knowing the meaning, stars."
He stood up immediately, but his legs were numb from sitting still all night, so he knelt on the ground.
The little girl immediately put down the basket and went to help him: "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
He hugged the little girl: "Star."
"Uncle, I'm not a star, I'm a little moon."
The little girl muttered innocently.
Hearing the sound, he raised his eyes and stared at the small moon, only then was he sure that this was not his star.
He looked out the door again, and the light was gone.
He almost crawled out.
"Zhiyi! Zhiyi! Can you please see me?"
But the only thing that responded to him was the mountain wind.
Little Moon ran to him. She didn't quite understand the meaning of sadness yet. She only knew that her uncle was very sad.
She pointed to the basket in the room.
"Uncle, they said you've been hiding in your room and haven't eaten anything. My grandma is here as a volunteer. She made a lot of delicious food. You'll be happy if you eat it."
Looking at the innocent look of the little moon, Gong Chen would think of the stars and Lin Zhiyi.
He nodded at Xiaoyueliang: "Okay."
He helped the child climb onto the chair and finished.
Xiaoyueliang is not shy and at this age he just likes to talk.
She didn't even notice that she had repeated some things three times, she just felt that it was nice to have someone listening to her.
"Uncle, you are as good as grandma. She also likes to listen to me talk, and she also praises me for being smart."
He looked at the child and hummed: "You are indeed smart."
Little Moon held her chin up in her hand. "Uncle, you're handsome too, but in my heart, the most handsome one is my dad. Although he's not as tall as you, he'll carry me on his shoulders so I can pick the fruit from the tree. Isn't he incredibly strong? Oh, and my mom will be there to cheer me on. When I pick the fruit, she'll kiss me and secretly give Dad a kiss."
He had a meal.
"anything else?"
This was his first time communicating with Xiaoyue.
When Little Moon heard his response, she danced with joy and talked a lot about her parents and herself.
"Mom and Dad said that when the holiday is almost over, they will pick me up from Grandma's house and take me to a very big amusement park."
"Uncle, have you ever been to an amusement park? Mom said the children there can dress like little princesses."
He glanced at the photos on the table: "I've been there."
Everyone thought that he had only gone there with Song Wanqiu and her son.
They even set off fireworks all night for the mother and son.
In fact, he also went there privately with Xingxing.
He booked the entire amusement park and accompanied her to play many attractions.
She was very happy.
But he made a pinky promise with Xingxing: "Don't tell anyone."
Xingxing didn't quite understand: "Why?"
"You'll understand from now on. If Mom asks you what you played today, just say I...left temporarily and Uncle Chen Jin played with you."
"Okay. Then can I still go to the amusement park?"
The stars are very lost, but also have a faint expectation.
He nodded, "Sure, you'll go to a lot of amusement parks."
"Dad, can you stay with me?"
