Chapter 110 They are the same kind
"Don't think you can please me this way! I can buy it myself! And I'll buy it for my mother!"

Nan Yi has no idea what 100 convenience stores represent.

In other words, even if he understood, he wouldn't care.

In the past, he was a small beast defending a barren territory.

Now he is guarding the treasure and his mother.

No matter what others took out, he would not push his mother out.

That was his priceless treasure.

and so……

"Stay away from us!"

Nan Yi grinned, revealing his white teeth, trying to scare away the man in front of him.

Unfortunately, his little threat was nothing but funny to Lu Shixu.

Lu Shixu said calmly:

"I'm not trying to please you."

"Not even trying to please my mother!"

Don't think he can't see this little trick!
This time Lu Shixu didn't respond.

After a while, he suddenly opened his mouth and asked a completely unrelated question:

“Do you know how it feels to grab sand?”

Nan Yi turned his face away, wondering what this guy was talking about.

Lu Shixu: "The tighter you hold on, the faster the sand will slip away."

Nan Yi’s body stiffened.

A biting chill crept up his back, making him feel as if he had been stripped naked and thrown into the snow.

He suppressed his shivering and shaking, trying to defend himself:

"……Nothing to do with you!"

The little beast waved its not-so-sharp claws, but Lu Shixu didn't care.

He was simply stuck in his own emotional quagmire.

Because of the words "grabbing sand", not only Nan Yi was hurt, but also himself.

It was as if he had also had such a personal and painful experience——

Because you want to hold on too much, the tighter you hold on, the faster you lose.

In a blink of an eye, the wind blew away everything, and he was the only one left there, ridiculously...

My chest felt so tight that I couldn't breathe.

Lu Shixu raised his hand and loosened his tie.

Then I realized that this feeling of suffocation was not caused by the tie.

Rather, it is the emotions that are hidden in the corners of his body, lurking silently.

Whenever he thought these things didn't exist, they would suddenly pop up and hit him hard!

Lu Shixu was slightly dazed.

Nan Yi waited for a long time but didn't hear the man's next sentence. Puzzled, he looked at him and realized that something was wrong with him.

Humph, you deserve it!

Nan Yicai had no intention of helping, but instead happily swung his calves twice.

How could Lu Shixu not notice Nan Yi's little action?

He tried to suppress his discomfort:
"You think so, does your mother think so too?"

Nan Yi's dangling calves suddenly stopped.

"Don't worry about it."

"You are afraid."

"I……"

"You're probably afraid that people will hate you once your true identity is revealed."

"..."

"She must like children who live in the sunshine, but you have nothing, so you can only pretend to be good enough to please her or deceive her."

"..."

Nan Yi clenched his teeth and pursed his lips tightly!

He turned his head away and wanted to retort, but he didn't know what to say.

Moreover, there was something wrong with the man in front of him. His eyes were vague and dazed, as if he was enveloped by a sticky shadow.

Very similar to him.

Nan Yi's vigilance and precautions relaxed instantly, and she curled her lips in disdain:

“So you are like this too.”

They are the same kind.

Lu Shixu wanted to shake his head and say no.

Because he never had any memory of this.

Even though his mother became his inner demon, he never thought of pleasing her when he was young.

He knew it was useless because his mother only loved his father, not him.

So why on earth...why did he feel so empathetic?
These words were not only about Nan Yi, but also about himself. "I..."

Between the lightning and the fire.

A figure as gentle yet bright as moonlight broke into the world before his eyes which was filled with haze.

Lu Shixu froze in an instant, staring blankly ahead.

I had been keeping an eye on his Nan Yi, and felt something was wrong, so I looked over:

"mom, Mom, Mom!"

Nanzhi had already walked quickly into the convenience store.

She must have been in a hurry, as she didn't even take off her apron.

The hair that was tied behind her head for the sake of kitchen hygiene also became a little messy.

She panted slightly, and pulled Nan Yi to look him up and down:
"Yiyi, are you okay?"

Nanzhi naturally would not ignore such a large land time series.

Then he glanced over with displeasure.

Lu Shixu was originally feeling a little uncomfortable, with his body slightly hunched forward.

But the moment Nanzhi saw him, he immediately sat up straight.

"It's him……"

"I just met this uncle and saw that he seemed a little uncomfortable, so I sat with him for a while!"

Nan Yi's mouth was like a machine gun, and he started to explain first.

He was like a well-behaved little kitten, snuggling up to Nanzhi's side and speaking softly:
"Mom, I'm not running around."

"I know, Yiyi is a child who knows his limits."

As he spoke, Nanzhi glanced at Lu Shixu.

It seemed to be saying that he was the one who didn't know the limits.

Lu Shixu: ...

He fell silent.

I remembered that he was the one who usually set traps for others.

As a result, today, a 4 and a half year old child trapped him with just a few words.

He underestimated Nan Yi.

Facing Nanzhi's unhappy gaze, Lu Shixu silently swallowed his explanation:
"Feel sorry."

Nanzhi saw him lower his head and something moved her mind.

In fact, when she came, she observed the interaction between Nan Yi and Lu Shixu through the glass.

Although there were two empty seats between the two people when they were sitting, the boundary was clearly drawn.

But in reality, their atmosphere was far from tense as before.

Instead, there is a wonderful harmony.

"……never mind."

Nanzhi no longer used that harsh tone.

Lu Shixu felt it.

Nan Yi also felt it.

Taking advantage of his small size, he held his mother's hand tightly:

"Let's go back! The store must be busy!"

How could Nanzhi not see Nanyi’s little thoughts?
She rubbed Nan Yi's head and smiled tolerantly and gently:
"Okay, let's go."

Having said that, he just nodded towards Lu Shixu.

Then he took Nan Yi away.

There was not even an extra glance, as if they were just strangers passing by.

Lu Shixu rubbed his fingers slowly, his throat was very dry.

He recalled Nanzhi looking down at her child, her tenderness pouring like running water.

Like soft yet tough silk, it bound and restrained him, making it hard for him to breathe.

This feeling is very familiar, very similar to the feeling of suffocation just now.

Lu Shixu suddenly understood the source——

It's Nanzhi.

On this side, Nanzhi had already taken Nanyi back to Nan's Restaurant.

The convenience store is only a few dozen meters away from their store, just a few steps away.

However, Nanzhi was worried that going through the main entrance would disturb the diners' meals, so she deliberately went through the back door, which took some extra time.

Along the way, Nan Yi was very nervous, fearing that Nan Zhi would ask something.

In the end, Nanzhi said nothing except caring about him.

Nan Yi became more and more uneasy and quietly squeezed Nan Zhi's hand.

Nanzhi quickly held it back.

He also lowered his head and smiled at Nan Yi.

The familiar tenderness slowly made Nan Yi's heart settle down.
