Chapter 89 – As A Child 4

“Ruan Ruan, why are you so tall?” Yun Mao Mao rubbed against Xia Ruan’s neck, his voice confused and longing.

In the past six months, Xia Ruan’s body began to stretch, and she suddenly grew to 1.6 meters. She completely lost her previous petite appearance. She was taller than girls of the same age, and even a head taller than Yun Mao Mao. In the past, Xia Ruan was often bullied by the children nearby because of her petite stature, but now not many people dare to bully her.

“No, I don’t know.” Xia Ruan also blinked, thinking, “Maybe it’s because… now I eat better than before?”

Since getting to know Yunmao, the little guy can steal some bacon and sausages from home from time to time, and Xia Ruan’s frequency of eating meat has skyrocketed.

“But obviously we all eat about the same, why haven’t I grown taller?” Yun Mao Mao pouted, puzzled.

“Because you haven’t grown up yet.” Xia Ruan thought for a while, “Maybe… it will take another two years.”

“Ah…” Yun Mao Mao was disappointed.

Two years is a long time.

Xia Ruan rubbed her hair and asked, “Maomao, do you really want to grow taller?”

“Yeah!” Yun Maomao nodded vigorously.

“How tall do you want to grow?” Xia Ruan was curious.

“Hmm…” Yun Mao Mao thought about it seriously, “It’s a little bit higher than Ruan Ruan.”

“why?”

Yunmaomao said without hesitation: “Because you said that if the sky suddenly collapsed, there would be a tall person standing in front of it. If I was taller than you, I could help you withstand it.”

Xia Ruan was taken aback, and his palms suddenly felt hot. She turned over abruptly, looking at the endless stars in the night sky outside the window, her eyes flickering.

At the back, Yun Mao Mao opened her small mouth, blinked in confusion, and soon turned over with Xia Ruan, and raised her hand to touch Xia Ruan’s face: “It’s so hot! Ruan Ruan, are you shy?”

Xia Ruan’s knees shrank upwards, and he curled up into a small shrimp.

It made Yun Mao Mao hug her and laugh.

The little girl’s laughter was as clear as a silver bell, very pleasant to the ear. Xia Ruan thought it was really nice, but at the same time she was so shy that her ears and cheeks were completely red.

It took a while before Xia Ruan managed to recover, so she turned back and hugged Yun Mao Mao, her chin gently rubbing against her hair.

Yun Mao Mao looked up and gave Xia Ruan a silly smile.

Xia Ruan also smiled lightly.

“By the way, Maomao, what book are you reading during the day?” Xia Ruan suddenly remembered that Yun Maomao deliberately avoided her when she was reading during the day, and didn’t let her read it. At that time, she was a little curious, but she held back and didn’t ask until now.

“Hey… Ruan Ruan, do you want to know?” Yun Maomao hesitated, “The ghost stories I read, you, you will be scared…”

Ruan Ruan is timid, afraid of ghosts, dark and thunder…It is easy to be scared and cry. Although Yunmaomao is still young, she can’t help but think occasionally – growing up in this environment, how can Ruan Ruan be so timid? When she was not around, Ruan Ruan lived alone in such a gloomy little house, wouldn’t she often be scared to cry? So poor.

Xia Ruan bit her lip and struggled for a while: “Maomao, please tell me.”

Although she is indeed afraid, she also doesn’t like the feeling of being separated from Mao Mao. What Maomao knows, she also wants to know something, even if she is afraid, she still wants to QAQ.

Yun Mao Mao sighed old-fashionedly, and finally told a ghost story vividly.

As a result, before she finished speaking, Xia Ruan burrowed into her arms crying, tears streaming down her face, and the fingers pinching her clothes were trembling even more.

Cloud Cat: “…”

In fact, she was also afraid, but seeing Xia Ruan being so afraid, she felt that she was not afraid anymore, she just wanted to grow up quickly, and be able to hold Xia Ruan in her arms completely, so that she would not be so afraid anymore.

In the end, they hugged and coaxed, Yun Mao Mao almost cried together, and finally coaxed Xia Ruan to stop the tears, but still shivered in her arms.

“Ruan Ruan,” Yunmao Mao frowned, with a distressed voice, “What will you do when I’m not around?”

Xia Ruan subconsciously said, “I won’t be afraid when you’re not around.”

“Huh? Why?”

“Because…you can’t be afraid when you’re alone.” Xia Ruan clenched her fingers tightly, because no matter how scared she was, no one would hug her, coax her, and tell her that if the sky fell, she would stand in front of her to stop her. with.

“Aw…” Yun Mao Mao seemed to understand, but obediently did not ask more, but changed the subject, “Ruan Ruan, in today’s Chinese class, the text we are studying is the story of Cinderella… Also, and The story of the ugly duckling.”

Xia Ruan nodded: “Yeah.”

She has read both stories.

Yunmao paused, and continued to ask: “Ruan Ruan, do you prefer Cinderella or Ugly Duckling?”

Xia Ruan said, “The ugly duckling.”

“Eh…? Why?”

Looking at the starry sky outside the window, Xia Ruan said in a low voice, “Because Cinderella became a princess after meeting the prince. But the ugly duckling turned into a white swan by itself.”

I don’t know if Yun Maomao understands, she was silent for a while, then suddenly buried her head on Xia Ruan’s shoulder, her laughter was soft, “Then… Ruan Ruan, you are an ugly duckling, and you will definitely become a white swan in the future .”

Eleven-year-old Yun Mao Mao has an innocent voice.

The fifteen-year-old Xia Ruan sighed.

She bit her lip and said in a low voice: “But… the reason why the ugly duckling can turn into a white swan is because… because it is itself a swan.”

Xia Ruan’s implication is that she is not a swan, so she cannot become a white swan.

Most of the time, Xia Ruan regards herself and Yun Mao Mao as friends of the same age, but Yun Mao Mao is indeed four years younger than her. Yun Mao Mao’s life is very bitter, but it is indeed not as hard as hers.

So sometimes, Yun Mao Mao is just a child in Xia Ruan’s eyes.

Xia Ruan felt that when she said these words, it was as if she deliberately punctured the child’s dream. She was a little uncomfortable and a little guilty.

But she is indeed not an ugly duckling, nor can she become a white swan.

Yun Mao Mao also became depressed.

Xia Ruan’s eyes immediately turned red. She wanted to turn her back to Yun Mao Mao and cry secretly for a while, but at this moment, Yun Mao Mao put her ear to her heart.

“Ruan Ruan, you are an ugly duckling, and one day you will become a white swan flying high.” Yunmao Mao said slowly, pressing against Xia Ruan’s heart, “And I am Cinderella. The swan queen will suddenly come down to me, take me away and fly away, and make me a real princess.”

After finishing speaking, Yun Mao Mao raised his head and smiled at Xia Ruan: “Ruan Ruan, this is what your heart said to me.”

Xia Ruan’s head went down for a moment, as if something had suddenly broken off.

It was as if… another small sprout had landed on the tip of her heart, and in the long years to come, it would slowly take root and grow stronger.

Another year passed.

Yun Mao Mao graduated from primary school, and Xia Ruan was invited to attend her graduation ceremony.

There are people coming and going on the playground, and almost every child is with their parents. Xia Ruan had never been to a place with so many people, so she was a little nervous, but looking at Yunmao in front of her, she forced herself to suppress her nervousness.

The little guy’s parents didn’t come, so as her parents, I couldn’t embarrass her.

Xia Ruan tried hard to keep a straight face.

In front, Yunmaomao turned around and accidentally saw Xia Ruan’s expression, and couldn’t help chuckling: “Ruanruan, why is your expression so serious?”

Xia Ruan blushed, and returned to her usual shyness.

Yun Mao Mao laughed.

Xia Ruan pouted slightly, and slapped her on the shoulder angrily. So Yun Mao Mao obediently pursed her lips, zipped her mouth, and stopped smiling.

Yun Mao Mao was bouncing forward, and Xia Ruan was infected by her, and her steps became brisk.

After a while, Yunmaomao returned to Xia Ruan after taking the group photo of the class, “Ruan Ruan, can we also take a group photo together?”

“Group photo?” Xia Ruan lowered her head and muttered, “I, I haven’t taken a photo…”

“Go, go, it’s okay, just wipe it and it will be ready.” Yun Maomao hugged her arm coquettishly, “Ruan Ruan~ Ruan Ruan sister~ sister, sister~~~~”

Xia Ruan’s eyelashes flickered, and he secretly raised his eyes to look in the direction of the cameraman.

It seems that other children are taking pictures with their families, only her cats are not…

Xia Ruan’s heart felt sore, and a thought came to her suddenly: If other children have it, her cats should also have it.

“Go.” So Xia Ruan grabbed Yun Mao Mao’s wrist and timidly walked towards the camera uncle.

Maomao said “yeah” and jumped up for joy.

“Soft is the best!”

Although the uncle kept saying “It’s okay, take it easy”, Xia Ruan was still very nervous when facing the camera for the first time, subconsciously hid behind Yun Mao Mao, and buried his head on the little guy’s shoulder.

But after hearing the uncle call “eggplant”, Xia Ruan couldn’t help but raised his head and looked at the camera secretly.

This is the first photo of her and Mao Mao.

After the photo was developed, Yunmao carefully put it in the bag: “Ruanrou, shall we put the photo under the pillow?”

Of course Yun Mao Mao would not take their group photo home, so she was referring to Xia Ruan’s pillow.

Xia Ruan blinked in confusion, and said softly: “But if we put it under the pillow, we won’t be able to see it…”

“Then… on the locker next to the bed?” Yunmao raised her head and suggested.

Xia Ruan nodded.

After returning home, Xia Ruan took out 20 yuan “huge money” from under the bed, and framed the photos in the photo studio in the small town. The brand new photo frame stood on the locker, which was in sharp contrast with other things in the room However, Xia Ruan felt that it was not against harmony at all.

And when she thinks that she will be able to see the cat’s smile as soon as she gets up together, Xia Ruan feels very happy.

The corners of Xia Ruan’s lips curled into a gentle smile, and Yun Mao Mao beside him also rolled his eyes with a smile.

Before night falls.

Yun Mao Mao took Xia Ruan’s hand and walked all the way to the door of his house. Xia Ruan looked up at the dark mansion in the window, bit her lips and asked weakly: “Maomao, didn’t you say… Shall we sleep together today?”

Today is Yunmao Mao’s brother’s birthday. Her parents took her brother to the city to play, and they might not come home for several days. So Xia Ruan acquiesced that Yun Mao Mao would go to her house to spend the night.

From the first time Yunmaomao slept in her house, she would come again from time to time. Xia Ruan is used to loneliness, but she also looks forward to the night when she can sleep with the little girl in her arms.

“Hey…” Yun Mao Mao smiled slyly, and took out a key from the bag, “We sleep here tonight, who told them not to come back.”

Xia Ruan was taken aback, biting her lower lip even harder.

She, she has never entered such a mansion…

So nervous.

But Yunmaomao couldn’t help but grab her hand, and pulled her into the house, turning on the lights and closing the door in one go.

In an instant, the whole room lit up. Xia Ruan looked at the neat and clean floor tiles and the crystal-like chandelier in front of him, and couldn’t help but widen his eyes in amazement, and blinked his almond eyes in a daze.

At this moment, Yun Mao Mao leaned over and whispered in Xia Ruan’s ear, “Ruan Ruan, I like our family better.”

I don’t know when, the little guy habitually called Xia Ruan’s home “our home”.

Xia Ruan inexplicably felt a little numb in her ears, her cheeks were slowly stained with a blush, and she looked more dazed than usual.

She kept repeating “our family” that Yun Mao Mao said in her heart, feeling her heart getting weaker and weaker, but she couldn’t explain why.

Probably… I don’t know when, Yunmaomao has become her inseparable family member.

Xia Ruan is sixteen years old, and she is at the age of ignorance emotionally. Although she has fantasized about having someone she likes, she has never seriously thought about what that person would be like, and she has never really had extravagant hopes. .

She knew that no one would like her.

So, if you can always be like this, you can always be by Yunmao Mao’s side as a family member, grow up with her, and protect her if you can.

That’s enough.

After Xia Ruan reacted, she had been pushed by Yun Mao Mao to sit on the sofa, and Yun Mao Mao excitedly turned on the TV: “Ruan Ruan, don’t you like watching movies? What do you want to watch, I’ll find it for you… “

Xia Ruan looked at Yun Mao Mao’s side face, his eyes became softer and softer.

She thought about it, clicked on a movie, Yunmao immediately searched for that movie, and pressed the play button.

Immediately, Yun Mao Mao habitually leaned back and retracted into Xia Ruan’s arms.

From time to time, he raised his head and whispered to Xia Ruan, discussing the plot of the movie.

Xia Ruan watched very intently, and even made a gesture or two from time to time, but when Yun Mao Mao turned her head, her attention would immediately focus on her, and her expression was so gentle that it was a mess.
