C734 That Matter
Mu Shinian originally thought that she was still awake.
She rubbed her eyes and took a closer look. Her eyes met with the overly cute face of a child in the photo. For a moment, she did not know whether to laugh or to do something.
She continued to flip through. Starting from the first picture, the further she went, the bigger the little boy in the photo.
Mu Shinian finished flipping through the two photo albums and her mood suddenly became somewhat unpleasant.
The little boy in the photos, from not knowing how to walk to... the last picture was estimated to be about seven or eight years old.
There were a few photos that showed the shadow of a woman. Other times, the boys were mostly smiling and smiling very happily.
There was no such thing as the current one.
He was carefree, as if the whole world was under his feet.
Mu Shinian flipped through the album again. There were many funny photos on it, but she could not laugh.
Compared to the current Bo Qian, perhaps he was happier at that time.
Mu Shinian heavily pursed her lower lip and gently stroked the little boy in the photo.
She remembered that when she first came, she had investigated Bo Qian's information. The woman in the photo had died when Bo Qian was seven or eight years old.
At that time, such a small child would have to face the group of jackals, tigers, and leopards from the Bo family alone?
Was it because he was once afraid and helpless?
So many nights had passed, and the only person who could protect him had disappeared, leaving him to fight alone?
Mu Shinian sat on the bed and thought for a long time before carefully putting the album back into the cabinet.
...
Ye Ling found that Mu Shinian's mood was not good all day.
She sat in her seat with her chin propped up and stared at the blackboard. Only her eyes did not have any focus.
Until the end of the class, Ye Ling could not help but call out to her, "What's wrong with you? Why do you look like you are in such a bad mood?"
"No."
Mu Shinian's face was calm as she packed up the books.
"I will go back first."
Ye Ling saw her wandering look and how could she be at ease when she went back alone. She immediately chased after, "Shinian, don't tell me something happened to you."
Mu Shinian looked at Ye Ling doubtfully and then shook her head.
"Really not. It's just that I know some bad things and am a little unhappy."
Her ability to adjust herself was very strong.
She believed that she would be able to regain her balance very soon.
Ye Ling stared at her speechlessly, "What unhappy matter?"
There was still some distance between the school and the bus stop. Mu Shinian slowly walked in the crowd and muttered, "Nothing."
Ye Ling cautiously observed her expression, "Could it be... Bo Qian's matter?"1
"No."
Mu Shinian directly denied it.
Ye Ling was sulky, "Looking at you like that, I guess you are close to it."
Mu Shinian pulled her lower lip and did not deny it.
Ye Ling originally did not intend to mention that everyone had their own worries but when she saw Mu Shinian's depressed look, she really did not understand why Bo Qian, a proud son of heaven, would have any worries.
"Uh..."
Mu Shinian turned around and looked at her strangely.
Ye Ling covered her mouth and in the next second, her hand loosened again. Then, she covered her mouth again.
Mu Shinian saw her series of incomprehensible actions and her frown deepened, "What happened to you?"
Ye Ling looked at the people around and after realizing that no one noticed them, she carefully asked back, "You didn't know about that matter, right?"
Mu Shinian was confused.
