She hurriedly said, “I’ll do it myself later.”
Qiao Zihao shook his head and said, “I often do this.”
Only then did Xiao Ying notice that although it was difficult for him to hold the broom, his movements were very practiced. It was obvious that he often did housework.
This made her like him even more. It was rare to see such an obedient and sensible child.
The two of them worked together to clean the entire house. Looking at the clean and tidy room, they looked at each other and smiled, feeling the exhaustion leave their bodies.
After thinking it over carefully, Xiao Ying walked into the kitchen and made a simple porridge and two dishes before calling Qiao Zihao over for dinner.
After dinner, they went to rest.
Xiao Ying instructed, “Zihao, let me know if you need anything. We’ll go shopping tomorrow.”
Qiao Zihao nodded.
Xiao Ying returned to her room and was not used to seeing the empty bedside table. There should be a music box there.
Drawing out the rough shape of the music box in the air, Xiao Ying felt a sense of exhaustion and helplessness against an unknown enemy.
But she could not rely on Cheng Yang in this battle. It was her turn to protect him.
Her phone suddenly rang. It was a message from Cheng Yang.
Xiao Ying took a glance and closed her phone without replying.
Cheng Yang had sent her many messages, but Xiao Ying had never replied. Or rather, she didn’t dare to reply.
She closed her eyes and lay on the bed, carefully thinking about these things. The messy situation gradually became clearer in her mind.
Xiao Ying thought of Cheng Yang’s ending in her previous life. He had killed his own family and become the most ruthless serial murderer.
Why?
If she solved this problem, would he go down a different path?
After thinking it through, Xiao Ying smiled.
The next morning, Xiao Ying brought Qiao Zihao to the supermarket again to buy some daily necessities. Qiao Zihao actually asked for something: a teddy bear.
Xiao Ying was a little surprised. “So you like this thing?”
Qiao Zihao smiled shyly, finally looking like a child.
Xiao Ying looked at the teddy bear in his hand again.
In the afternoon, Xiao Ying sent Qiao Zihao to the University of Medicine and handed him over to Qiao Na before leaving.
She came to Cheng Yang’s house alone quietly. By now, he should have gone to the office.
She successfully entered the room and carefully checked the situation inside. There was no one in sight. It seemed like she was right. There wouldn’t be anyone at home at this time.
Her goal today was to find out Cheng Yang’s secret, the secret that Cheng Ya had told her about.
She quietly went to Cheng Yang’s room and opened the door. The curtains were drawn in broad daylight, making the room look sinister.
Xiao Ying walked in and opened the curtains. The moment the sun shone in, she felt a little better.
She had entered this place countless times, but she had never carefully observed it.
With a goal in mind, she realized that there were almost no decorations in the room. It was extremely monotonous, and there was not even a single flower.
Xiao Ying blamed herself for never caring about Cheng Yang before. She decided to decorate this place properly after this matter was settled.
The amulet hissed and said, “Master, what are you doing here?”
Xiao Ying paused and said, “Didn’t you ask me to move Cheng Yang’s fate back on track? I’m looking for the reason why he kills people and then I can complete this mission.”
The amulet’s static crackled as if it were thinking. After a moment, he went still. It seemed he had accepted her reasoning.
Xiao Ying heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that this fake amulet was quite easy to fool.
She quickly opened the bedside table, revealing an album. When she opened it, she realized that it was filled with her photos. There were pictures of her with her friends, but also pictures of her alone.
Xiao Ying couldn’t help but complain in her heart. This Cheng Yang had actually been sending people to follow her..
