211 Chapter - Heartbroken
Early the next morning.
Ye Yao and Luo Jianhua came out of the room.
The white-haired girl was in a very depressed state.
His steps were unsteady, his eyelids drooped, and his eyelids felt as if they weighed a ton.
When she managed to lift her head, her once bright eyes were now empty and devoid of life.
The pale blue shadows under the eyes are clearly visible.
She looked like a flower that had been wilted by frost.
A persistent low-pressure atmosphere enveloped the area.
It was as if I hadn't slept well all night.
Lou Wei, who was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, looked up.
His gaze lingered on the girl for a moment.
He subtly sensed the emotional fluctuations in the air.
The feelings of depression and mental exhaustion are incredibly real.
This sense of dejection emanating from within doesn't seem fake.
This kind of spirit is unprecedented.
How long did she cry yesterday?
Lou Wei realized even more how important Ye Tong was to Ye Yao.
But he had such deep feelings for his sister whom he had never met.
It doesn't make any sense no matter how you look at it.
Unless there's another reason he doesn't know.
Lou Wei fell into deep thought.
Xiao Jing came out of the kitchen with breakfast and immediately saw Ye Yao's appearance, her heart clenching.
Lou Wei has already explained the situation to her.
Night Ballad developed an extreme misunderstanding of Night Child's avoidance.
You {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} might be feeling down right now and need a little more care.
Xiao Jing had already prepared for this.
She's a pro at comforting children.
Xiao Jing originally thought Ye Yao would only be a little unhappy.
After all, Lou Wei didn't sound that serious when he said it.
She envisioned Ye Yao looking down sullenly, or speaking less than usual, with a hint of grievance.
But now that Xiao Jing has actually seen Ye Yao's appearance, she realizes that things are not as simple as they seem.
The girl's eyes were unfocused and vacant.
Walking felt like floating.
It was as if all the energy and spirit had been drained from him, leaving only a fragile, empty shell.
The heavy, almost tangible sadness and weariness weighed heavily on her thin shoulders.
It also struck Xiao Jing's heart heavily.
Xiao Jing's smile froze instantly.
A sharp pain shot through my chest.
Her hand holding the plate tightened unconsciously, her knuckles turning slightly white.
An overwhelming sense of heartache instantly overwhelmed her.
She even forgot the words of comfort she had prepared, and just stared blankly at Ye Yao.
It was as if I was truly realizing for the first time how destructive this "misunderstanding" could be.
A thought, filled with disbelief and panic, unleashed itself into Xiao Jing's mind.
Is this what you call just feeling a little down?
Anyone who didn't know better would think that the older sister had died!
That unplanned, genuine worry and heartache surged in Xiao Jing's eyes like a tide.
She almost rushed over immediately to hug Ye Yao tightly, using all her warmth to dispel the gloom that shrouded the girl.
Ye Yao didn't immediately observe the state of the two people in the living room.
She just felt a headache.
In order to make the false information being spread seem more believable.
Ye Yao barely slept all night.
I stayed up all night watching a lot of tear-jerking movies and anime on Luo Jianhua's phone.
The various touching and sad storylines made her cry buckets.
At first, Luo Jianhua even watched it with her.
I fell asleep halfway through.
Only Ye Yao remained, fighting alone until dawn.
This has left me with absolutely no energy.
I'm afraid I'll need to go back for a nap after breakfast.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
As long as we can fool Lou Wei and those people secretly observing us, that's fine.
Even now, when Ye Yao thinks about those scenes from the movie, she can't help but feel a sense of sadness.
Lou Wei would definitely think she was sad because her sister abandoned her.
As a result, when Ye Yao looked up, she saw Xiao Jing walking towards her.
Her eyes were covered with a barely perceptible layer of mist.
The system conveyed the author's inner thoughts, including her concern and heartache for Ye Yao.
Ye Yao then realized what was happening.
broken.
They overlooked Xiao Jing's mother, who had invested too much emotion in the relationship.
The pretense he's putting on has clearly fooled her.
Ye Yao was immediately filled with guilt.
Oh dear, I'm such a newbie!
Even so, it's not easy to say it outright, so they can only continue acting.
Xiao Jing suppressed her emotions and could only offer initial concern.
"Why do you look so pale? If you've been wronged, you can tell your mother. You don't have to keep it to yourself."
Ye Yao quickly shook her head and smiled.
"No, no, I just had a nightmare last night and didn't sleep well. Don't worry, Mom, I'll be fine soon."
As a result, Xiao Jing took this hasty explanation as a sensible attempt to conceal the truth.
The unnatural smile on her face was taken as a forced smile.
Just so people won't worry.
Xiao Jing felt even more heartbroken.
She took a deep breath and forced a gentle smile onto her face.
She could only use her most skillful gentleness to soothe this "wounded" child.
The source of Night Ballad's sorrow is too unique.
Ordinary care may not be enough to heal her inner wounds.
Perhaps only her sister can break this situation.
Or perhaps Ye Yao can figure it out on her own.
Regardless.
Xiao Jing felt that she should give them the greatest care immediately.
"Was it a nightmare?"
The woman gently pulled Ye Yao into her arms.
"It's okay, nightmares are just dreams. If you didn't sleep well, you can go back and catch up on your sleep. Have breakfast first and then go back to sleep. No one will bother you today."
"Um......"
Hearing the gentle voice in her ear, Ye Yao felt even more guilty.
This time it's really bad.
We can only try to make up for it later.
While Ye Yao went to wash up,
Xiao Jing pulled Luo Jianhua aside, her face showing deep worry once again.
"Jianhua, what exactly happened last night, Yeyao...?"
Luo Jianhua hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.
"My sister cried for a long time last night..."
This is true.
Although the real reasons differed slightly, she did cry for quite a long time.
Luo Jianhua never expected Ye Yao to be so sentimental.
Even watching a movie, I can be so moved by the plot that I throw myself into her arms and cry.
Xiao Jing mistook Luo Jianhua's subtle expression for Ye Yao's disappointment at not having comforted her properly.
“You’ve done a great job. Don’t be ashamed. You’ve been by her side longer, so please continue to keep an eye on her.”
"Yes, I will try my best."
A moment later.
Ye Yao and Luo Jianhua returned to their room after breakfast.
Xiao Jing was clearing away the dishes.
Lou Wei remained fixed on the sofa.
The atmosphere in the living room was somewhat quiet at this moment.
A few seconds later.
Xiao Jing finally spoke.
"Didn't you find the Night Child?"
"There is no trace of her in this city."
Lou Wei put down the newspaper, his expression calm.
I just can't concentrate on reading the newspaper.
The mental energy that was slowly rising then came to a standstill.
Night Ballad doesn't seem to have any major problems right now.
But this can't go on.
The longer abnormal emotions persist, the more likely unexpected events will occur.
Just to be on the safe side, we really need to find Ye Tong and clear up the misunderstanding as soon as possible.
But what about the people?
