EBE Chapter 338: As if in a dream
Chapter 338: As if in a dream
Xiao Wanwan closed her eyes and sat cross-legged on the ground like a statue.
Her mind raced through the events, recalling over and over again her first visit to Lingxiao Peak, her journey to the Immortal Realm, and her entry into Brahma Academy.
Recalling the scenes of getting along with everyone, Xiao Wanwan couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth slightly.
"Dong dong dong..."
The knock on the door interrupted Xiao Wanwan's memories.
She looked up at the door woodenly, then closed her eyes indifferently.
"Dong dong dong..."
Seeing no movement in the room, the person outside the room continued to knock on the door persistently.
"Wanwan, it's time to get up! Otherwise you'll be late."
The gentle voice of Mrs. Wu came from outside the door. She was the nanny in Xiao Wanwan's family, responsible for taking care of her food, clothing and daily life.
"Mrs. Wu, I feel a little unwell today and don't want to go to school."
Only then did Xiao Wanwan remember that she was still a student.
"Wanwan, you're not feeling well. Do you want to go to the hospital?"
Mrs. Wu outside the door became a little nervous. She had been a nanny in the Xiao family for eight years.
He truly loves Xiao Wanwan, the lively and kind little master.
"It's okay, I'll be fine after lying down for a while."
There was a distinct nasal tone in Xiao Wanwan's voice.
"Okay, okay, then you should have a good rest!"
Mrs. Wu heard something wrong in Xiao Wanwan's voice and thought that the little girl was arguing with her parents again.
Sometimes she couldn't understand the thoughts of these rich people. Although they raised their children with good food and drink, they usually didn't care about them.
Wanwan is a pitiful child. Although she has no worries about food and clothing, she has never received love from her parents.
Mrs. Wu turned around and went downstairs, but Xiao Wanwan was still sitting cross-legged on the balcony.
She thought over and over again about the scenes of interacting with the people of Lingxiao Peak in her dream, crying and laughing at times, and she seemed to be going crazy.
In a blink of an eye, night falls!
Xiao Wanwan's body was already stiff. She crawled up from the ground, moved step by step to the bed, and fell on her back.
Oh, right, go to sleep!
After falling asleep, maybe I can return to that dream again.
She let her mind wander and fell asleep unknowingly.
After a dreamless night, Xiao Wanwan woke up and stared at the ceiling with lifeless eyes.
Would she never see them again?
In just one day and night, she had exhausted herself.
Xiao Wanwan got up like a wandering soul, washed and changed her clothes.
The light in her usually lively eyes was gone.
Xiao Wanwan opened the door and slowly walked downstairs to the living room.
"Wanwan, wake up. Breakfast is ready. I'll bring it out."
Mrs. Wu, who was busy in the living room, looked up and saw Xiao Wanwan.
She wiped her hands quickly and went into the kitchen.
Xiao Wanwan seemed not to have heard what Mrs. Wu said, and walked into the restaurant with her eyes downcast.
Mrs. Wu brought out breakfast with a smile on her face and placed it in front of Xiao Wanwan.
"Wanwan, eat it while it's hot!"
Her eyes fell on Xiao Wanwan's face and she was shocked.
The girl in front of him was like a flower that had lost its moisture, without any vitality at all.
"Wanwan, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
After just one day of not seeing each other, Xiao Wanwan was like a terminally ill patient.
Xiao Wanwan ignored Mrs. Wu's words and stuffed food into her mouth intermittently like a puppet.
After a long time, she raised her eyes slightly.
"Ah...Mrs. Wu, what did you say?"
She took two casual bites and found it tasted like chewing wax.
"Mrs. Wu, I'm going to school!"
Xiao Wanwan put down the cup in her hand, stood up, went to the living room, picked up her schoolbag and walked out.
Her school is only a few minutes away from her home, so she has been walking to school all these years.
The early morning sunlight fell on her, causing her eyes to squint slightly.
Xiao Wanwan raised her hand to cover her forehead and looked up at the sky, feeling as if she was in another world.
"Wanwan, are you feeling unwell? Why don't you take a day off?"
Her deskmate was an extremely quiet and gentle girl. Seeing that Xiao Wanwan looked unhappy, she asked with concern.
"I'm okay!"
Xiao Wanwan was stunned for a moment and shook her head.
She always felt like she hadn't seen her deskmate for a long time.
"I see you don't look well. If you really can't do it, just ask for another day off."
Xiang Yu reached out and touched Xiao Wanwan's forehead.
It's only been a weekend since we last met, but Wanwan seems like a different person.
In the past, she was always noisy and could never have a moment's peace.
"Don't worry, I will help you catch up on the lessons you've missed."
"Thank you!"
Xiao Wanwan lay listlessly on the desk, looking gloomy.
"Wanwan, I see you don't look well right now. Are you sure you're okay?"
Xiang Yu was still worried. Wanwan looked very uncomfortable.
"Xiang Yu, I'm really fine!"
Xiao Wanwan felt sad. What's the point even if she had something wrong?
It was just an illusory dream, and she could never go back.
Xiang Yu looked at Xiao Wanwan in confusion!
No, it’s really wrong!
Wanwan always called her Xiaoyuer in the past.
"Wanwan, tell me the truth, did something happen to you?"
"Aren't we best friends now? If you have any difficult problems, I can help you."
Xiao Wanwan stared blankly at Xiang Yu, who had a concerned look on her face. Her lips moved a few times, but she said nothing.
What was she going to say?
Could it be that she was saying that she was trapped in a dream from which she did not want to wake up, and that was why she felt sad?
"Xiao Yu'er, I'm really fine!"
Xiao Wanwan cheered up and replied.
Xiang Yu looked at her doubtfully.
"Okay! If anything happens, you must tell me, okay?"
Xiao Wanwan was in a trance throughout the day's classes.
She knew that her current condition was very bad, but she had no way to adjust herself.
When he returned home, Xiao's father, who had not been seen for a long time, showed up at home.
He sat on the sofa in the living room and watched Xiao Wanwan walk in with her schoolbag.
"Mrs. Wu said you weren't feeling well, so I came back to see you!"
"Well, I'm fine!"
Xiao Wanwan responded indifferently without even calling him dad.
She glanced at Xiao's father's familiar yet unfamiliar face, without a ripple in her heart.
The relationship between them as father and daughter has become so estranged.
At this time, Father Xiao stood up and looked down at the watch on his wrist.
"Come on, I'll take you to the hospital!"
He looked at Xiao Wanwan, whose face was as pale as a ghost, without any youthful vigor.
"I'm fine!"
Xiao Wanwan shook her head and threw the schoolbag in her hand onto the sofa.
A trace of anger flashed in Xiao's father's eyes. This child is really not likable at all.
Or his daughter Lianlian is lively and cute, making people happy at first sight.
"Wanwan, I'm very busy and don't have time to fool around with you."
Xiao Wanwan raised her eyes and met the anger in her father's eyes.
"Then go and get busy!"
He doesn't really care about me, so why would he come here and pretend to be so?
It's just that as her guardian, I'm afraid she will die at home.
This time, Father Xiao didn't even say a word, he just walked out without hesitation.
