"Do you want a drink of water?"

When Yafei heard this question, she didn't want to speak at all.

I don't know what kind of strange brain circuit the boy opposite has to ask this incomprehensible question.

But she was indeed a little thirsty.

After crying for so long, it might be a good thing to drink some water.

"I drink."

After she finished saying this, she heard the sound of getting out of bed across the street, followed by the sound of walking and pouring water.

The footsteps are getting closer.

Xiao Ding covered his eyes and did not remove the cloth from his eyes.

Fortunately, the existence of Dou Qi can provide him with some vague perception capabilities, allowing him to find the exact location.

He quickly walked to Ya Fei's bed and picked up the cup.

"Here's some water for you."

Yafei raised her left hand and grabbed it in the air a few times, but she still didn't catch the cup.

She could clearly feel that the cup was there, but when she grabbed it with her hand, she didn't.

This isn't the first time this has happened.

From the day she was blindfolded, this sense of dislocation has been present in her life.

Xiao Ding also felt a little misplaced.

Compared with those inanimate objects, it is more difficult for living people to perceive them, especially a person who has practiced to some extent.

He held up the water glass and waited, but Yafei grabbed his hand several times and still couldn't grasp it accurately, which made him sigh.

"Forget it, stop moving."

Xiao Ding stretched out his free hand and slowly reached forward. He quickly touched the hair, which was Ya Fei's hair.

Touch down bit by bit along the hair, ears, shoulders, and arms.

He put the water cup into Yafei's raised hand, then pressed her hand to hold the water cup, waiting for her to drink the water, and then he put the water cup back.

After drinking the water, the two of them lay back on the bed.

Only this time no one could sleep.

After lying on the bed for a long time and not hearing even breathing from the side, Yafei knew that Xiao Ding was not asleep yet.

"Are you still wearing a cloth over your eyes?"

"Of course, my eyes are not healed yet. If my eyes were healed, I wouldn't live here."

"Then why can you see the kettle and water glass?"

"I can't see, I'm just used to it. I just told you that the longer you stay in the dark, the more sensitive you will be to the things around you."

"Have you been here long?"

"Of course, I've been living here for almost two months."

"What about your father and mother? Haven't they ever come to see you?"

"My home is far away from here, and I'm not from the imperial capital."

"oh……"

"The two of us have become acquainted.

I know your name is Xiao Ding, but you probably don’t know my name. My name is Ya Fei, Miter Ya Fei.”

"Um."

Hearing the girl's nagging voice, Xiao Ding suddenly felt sleepy.

But his perfunctory answer made Yafei think he was angry.

"sorry."

"Why do you say sorry?"

"I thought you were angry."

"I'm not angry."

"Then why didn't you speak just now?"

"..."

Xiao Ding didn't know what to say.

He held it in for a long time and felt that he should not continue to struggle with this issue.

"You're so annoyed. Can you stop asking this question?"

"sorry."

There was a hint of crying in Yafei's voice again.

"I told you, don't apologize."

"I was just a little scared because it was really dark,

When I was very young, I was afraid of the dark. At that time, my mother would hold me to sleep.

If I make you unhappy, don't be angry, I don't want to be disliked by others."

"You are from the Mittel family, how could anyone dislike you?"

Xiao Ding said sleepily.

"You don't understand, the Mittel family... so what can you do?"

Before Yafei finished speaking, the sound of breathing dropped again.

But she had just turned over, and Xiao Ding, who had not completely fallen asleep, became more awake.

"Will not you go to bed?"

"I can't sleep, didn't I tell you? I'm a little afraid of the dark."

But it doesn't look like you're afraid of the dark at all.

Xiao Ding suddenly began to regret giving Ya Fei the medicine.

"If you are afraid of the dark, just overcome it. Although you can't see anything when you are blindfolded, isn't it the same when you sleep?"

"When I usually sleep, there will always be candles burning in the house."

As the eldest daughter of the Mittel family, Ya Fei has lived a very good life since she was a child. Even when she sleeps, she has someone waiting on her.

Therefore, even though her parents have never been with her, Yafei never felt that she was such an unfortunate child.

She has grown up in an auction house since she was a child, and she has seen a lot of the world's sophisticated and fickle people.

Compared with the little beggar who makes a living by begging, her life is much happier.

However, today, for some reason, she suddenly dreamed of her father and mother not wanting her.

Obviously I haven't had this dream for a long, long time.

It seems that she and her parents have not seen each other for four or five years.

Ever since she started practicing and her extremely poor aptitude was exposed, she was abandoned by her parents.

Her parents prefer her younger brother who is more outstanding and don't like her.

If a person doesn't even like his parents who gave birth to him, then others will naturally not like him either.

Yafei's status in the family suddenly began to decline, and she clearly felt that the children who had gathered around her because of his status began to stay away from her.

This may not be the original intention of those children, maybe it is the intention of those children's parents, but the result is the same.

This kind of thing didn't end until she was adopted by the great elder. Perhaps because of the great elder's relationship, those children gathered around her again.

Ever since she was abandoned by her parents, Yafei has understood a truth.

In this world, many things are unreliable.

Even blood ties may be ignored, let alone others.

But money won't.

Yafei likes making money very much, because money will not betray her, will not leave her alone, and will not give her a younger brother when she has no talent for cultivation.

Yafei reached out and touched her face. This was not the first time her eyes were hurt.

Many years ago, when she was very young, she had an eye injury.

That time and now were completely different treatments.

At that time, she was lying in her mother's arms taking the best medicine, and her mother would tell her stories to lull her to sleep.

But now, lying in an empty ward, she could only rely on talking to a strange boy to relieve her fear of the dark.

In fact, she doesn't want much at all. Over the years, she has lacked nothing but companionship.

"Xiao Ding...are you still there?"

"here I am."

From behind the curtain, a faint murmur came.
