Chapter 170: One Night at the Hotel (4)
"Huh?" Alisa blinked her eyes in doubt, "You don't know where your hometown is? What do you mean?"
However, Su Cheng did not answer Alisa's question, but continued to look up at the starry sky with a sad face, saying:
"I left my hometown more than 3 years ago, when I was 14 years old, and came to the Britannia Empire."
"The Britannia Empire and my hometown are like two worlds. There is no one place in culture, language, clothing, etc. that is the same."
"Only the sky of the Britannia Empire is the same as my hometown. During the day, there are fiery sun and soft white clouds, and at night, there are bright moon and bright stars."
"When I miss my hometown, I will look up at the sky, and unconsciously, I have developed the habit of looking up at the sky now."
"When I first came to the Britannia Empire, it was too much..."
After all, Su Cheng showed a wry smile.
And Alisa, who was also lying on the head of the bed like Su Cheng, also looked at Su Cheng's side face seriously, and listened to Su Cheng's narration seriously.
"When I first came to the Britannia Empire, I was so scared and confused... All my familiar relatives and friends were gone, and I was surrounded by people I didn't know... I didn't know who to talk to, and I don't know who to turn to for help..."
"At that time, I even often thought about committing suicide...I thought that if I committed suicide, I might be able to return to my hometown, and return to the familiar relatives and friends..."
"However—in the most desperate period of my life, a little guy broke into my world."
Speaking of this, the wry smile on Su Cheng's face slowly disappeared, and slowly replaced with a tender smile.
"My sister came, just when I was desperate and wanted to kill myself, my sister and I met."
"Your sister..." Alisa mumbled the words a few times, and then put on an expression of sudden realization, "Ah! Your sister is the one with brown hair and green eyes, with short hair that reaches her chin. The little girl?"
"Well, that's right, it's her, her name is Alan."
Su Cheng suddenly put on a somewhat showy tone and said to Alyssa:
"How is it? My sister is cute, isn't she?"
"Well, it's quite cute, and I feel like a very energetic little girl."
"In my eyes, she is the cutest person in the world, and also the person I love the most." The tenderness on Su Cheng's face and eyes became more and more intense, "But in a few years, even if I get married in the future Without my wife, my sister will always be the person I love and cherish the most."
"The acquaintance and encounter with my sister made my world, which was originally completely black, finally dyed a bit of color."
"My sister and I supported and helped each other. Slowly, slowly, we walked out of the shadows in each other's hearts, and gradually became cheerful, and no longer wanted to commit suicide."
"Then I met Carol, and then I met Deng Jiaer a few months ago. Ah, Deng Jiaer is that little girl with black hair and golden eyes."
"As I got to know more and more people and bonded more and more with the people around me, I gradually no longer felt that it was a bad thing to leave my hometown and come to the Britannia Empire gone."
"When I first came to the Britannia Empire, I just wanted to go back to my hometown, and felt that I must have been unlucky to come here."
"But now, I'm starting to feel—"
Su Cheng paused, then turned his head, looked directly into Alisa's pupils, and then showed a very bright smile.
"It's really great to come here and get to know Alan, Carol, Deng Jiaer, Mr. Jacob, Mr. Issel, and you, Alisa."
After listening to Su Cheng's words, Alisa was taken aback for a moment, then she also showed a gentle smile and said:
"Does it feel good to know me?"
"Um.
Su Cheng nodded seriously, "After all, we are good friends who can play feeding games." "
"Hey! Didn't I tell you to forget about this?!"
"Ha ha ha ha."
After Su Cheng laughed heartily a few times, he turned his head and continued to look up at the stars outside the window.
Seeing Su Cheng who completely ignored what she said just now, after Alisa snorted angrily, she turned her head like Su Cheng and looked up at the stars outside the window.
The two just looked at the stars in the sky together quietly.
After watching for an indeterminate amount of time, Su Cheng took the lead in breaking the silence and said:
"Alyssa, can you tell me more about the stars in the sky? I am very interested and want to continue listening."
"Ah? It's not impossible, but I'm still dizzy because of my drunkenness. Maybe I'll get tired after talking too much."
"It's okay, just talk, talk as much as you can."
"...Okay then, I'll continue talking, listen carefully! I'll explain the stars to you with all my might, and if I find you deserting or falling asleep, I'll beat you!"
After that, Alisa cleared her throat, and began to point to the stars in the sky seriously, while explaining the names of each star and the origin of their names.
Although Su Cheng just talked a lot about him and his hometown, and what happened after he came to the Britannia Empire.
But there are still a lot of important things that Su Cheng didn't tell Alisa.
For example: Where is his hometown?
Why can't he go back to his hometown.
How did he come to the Britannia Empire.
Su Cheng didn't reveal a single word of the answers to these important questions to Alyssa.
Alisa is actually very curious about the answers to these questions.
However, curiosity is nothing but curiosity, Alisa does not intend to continue to ask Su Cheng these questions tonight.
For a long time to come, Alyssa did not intend to ask Su Cheng for answers to these questions.
Because - she felt that Su Cheng's mood was very low now.
After he started talking about his hometown just now, Su Cheng's mood dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Although Su Cheng still had a smile on his face. But Alisa could feel that Su Cheng's mood was still very low.
Alisa vaguely felt that the topic of hometown would make Su Cheng feel down.
Therefore, even though Alisa is extremely curious now, she can only suppress the curiosity in her heart.
After all, this kind of thing that exposes other people's scars, forces others to talk about topics he doesn't like, and satisfies his own curiosity - Alisa can't do it.
...
Just when Alisa was explaining every star in the sky seriously, and after explaining for an unknown period of time, she suddenly felt that her hanging right hand was caught by something.
Arisa was startled when she felt her right hand being grabbed by something.
Then, he hurriedly turned his head away in a panic, driving his gaze, looking down along his right arm——
It was Su Cheng who was holding Alisa's hand tightly.
At some point just now, Su Cheng stopped lying on the bedside looking at the stars.
It's just that Alisa spoke too vigorously just now, so she didn't realize that Su Cheng had already lay back under the covers.
Su Cheng, who had returned to the bed, lay on his side, facing the direction where Alisa was.
Just now, Su Cheng's left hand quietly held Alisa's right hand.
Seeing Su Cheng who was supposed to be asleep but suddenly held her hand, Alisa also panicked for a moment.
Judging by Su Cheng's appearance, Su Cheng should be fast asleep by now.
Why did Su Cheng, who was fast asleep, hold my hand suddenly? !
Just when Alisa was panicking and thinking about what to do now, whether to wake up Su Cheng or pull her hand back——
"Dad...Mom..."
—Suddenly there was a murmur.
Afterwards, Alisa felt that Su Cheng's big hand, which was holding her right hand, clenched even tighter.
After hearing this whisper, Alisa couldn't help but froze.
Alisa turned her head and looked at Su Cheng beside her.
After shifting her gaze to Su Cheng beside her, Alisa clearly saw a light flashing from the corner of Su Cheng's eyes who was sleeping soundly.
That is the light that comes after light is reflected by water.
