they want love, i want money

Chapter 111: Deep in Memory

==============================

Thinking of this, a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in Xia Wei's heart, and her footsteps became impatient.

"Hurry up, hurry up." Even if it was a dream, Xia Wei had to look at Ace again before waking up from the dream.

The soft sand under his feet made him unable to use his strength, and every step was like stepping on a thin cloud of nothingness.

But in this period of time, he has never felt so grounded.

He saw the place where Ace buried the treasure in his memory.

Under the shadow of layers of leaves, Mu Ran's straight figure.

His unexpectedly white face was staring at him.

Xia Wei's footsteps stopped.

Mu Ran naturally saw his calm face that seemed expressionless.

But Mu Ran didn't care about his wishes, and pulled him to his side.

"You should be familiar with this place."

In a word, Xia looked up at Mu Ran's easy-going smile.

"We're still in Luoka Empire, aren't we?" Xia Wei's smile turned pale.

He added: "As much as I want to believe it's true, I can't fool myself."

Mu Ran frowned, and his eyes were fixed on Xia Wei.

"Because I'm not Ace? He's dead, and you know that better than I do."

Xia Wei's expression was blank for a moment, but he didn't dodge his gaze when he looked at Mu Ran.

After a few seconds, Mu Ran turned away his gaze and looked elsewhere.

"Even if you believe that everything in front of you is false, you cannot deny this fact..."

Xia Wei saw the spar between Mu Ran's fingers, and the next moment, she couldn't look away.

That crystal of memory is still the same, no matter in the previous life or in the present.

He couldn't help but think of that day, the smile on Ace's face, the affection that couldn't be hidden, was extremely dazzling in the sun.

"Why are you holding it?" Xia Wei remembers clearly receiving Ace's gift that day.

After that, he put it in the safe next to the bed in the basement—a close and safe place.

"Why can't I hold him?" Mu Ran approached Xia Wei and continued.

"Wei Wei, your eyes are filled with disgust. You think I've insulted your pure love."

Wen Fu said calmly, "All of this is your excessive speculation."

"Really..." There was a self-deprecating smile on the corner of Mu Ran's mouth. "It's okay, I don't intend to let it appear in front of you for too long."

"You..." Xia Wei's pupils dilated suddenly, before he could stop him in the future, he saw the memory crystal in Luoran's hand draw an arc in the air and fall to the sea level.

Looking at Xia Wei's trembling body with anger, Mu Ran whispered in his ear: "I don't allow you to think about others in front of me."

In Yilina, where the crystal of memory fell into the sea, Xia Wei felt as if her whole body no longer existed, and only how to get it back was left in her mind.

It's not too close to here, even with the push of sea water, there should be still time to retrieve it now.

Without further hesitation, Xia Wei rushed towards the place where the memory crystal fell.

The sea water slapped on his calves, and the clothes were soaked and stuck to his body, which was uncomfortable. He bent over and groped, and the small waves splashed intermittently on his cheeks.

The rustling sea breeze dried layers of water droplets on her body, taking away the warmth from Xia Wei's body.

"What are you doing!" Mu Ran pulled Xia Wei's arm.

Xia Wei didn't say a word, she just wanted to break away from Mu Ran.

"Why... why, no, let me help you, why... always hurt yourself so stubbornly."

Mu Ran's voice trembled in the sea breeze, and he couldn't restrain himself from increasing the strength in his hands.

"I won't ask someone to hurt me." After speaking, Xia Wei shook off Mu Ran's hand and continued to search for the memory crystal.

"So...that's how you look at me." Mu Ran's voice came from behind, Xia Wei paused, but then continued to search.

"Since that's the case, can I be more unscrupulous?"

Regardless of Xia Wei's resistance, Mu Ran held him in his arms.

"So I thought it was unfair, obviously I met you first..." Mu Ran whispered in Xia Wei's ear.

"What do you mean?" Xia Wei asked.

"It seems that you have forgotten." Mu Ranju smiled wryly, and added: "I met Ace when I was eight years old."

The shackles in memory were loosened, and those buried memories were rediscovered.

When Xia Wei was eight years old, he was just taken to his aunt's house. Although his aunt's attitude towards him was not good, he still lived happily every day.

Sometimes, even Xia Weiwei himself doesn't know why he is so silly.

But in the past few days, Xiaowei Xia couldn't be happier.

He met a group worse than himself.

He has a bad aunt who bullies him, but he has a group of bad relatives who bully him.

According to the law of size, he is indeed living harder than himself.

Little friend Xia poked Tuanzi on the cheek.

In the next second, he saw the expression on Tuanzi's face about to cry, and the tearful blue eyes.

"Your eyes are blue, so pretty." Xia Wei couldn't help getting closer to Tuanzi's face, and observed it more carefully.

Looking at the face that suddenly stretched out, Tuanzi forgot to cry, his blue eyes were somewhat confused, but his cheeks turned red.

"Can I also have eyes like yours?" Xia Wei asked.

According to the biological knowledge he had learned, Tuanzi shook his head, and the broken hair on his forehead was shaken a few times by him.

"That's a pity..." Although Xiaowei Xia's tone was regretful, his hands didn't feel regretful at all, and he rubbed * on the dull hair on the top of Tuanzi's head.

Tuanzi wanted to struggle, but he tried to stop him with his chubby hands, but to no avail.

"Then you'll marry me." My friend Xia Weiwei said surprisingly.

The whole group of children froze in place.

Looking at Tuanzi's frightened blue eyes, Xia Weiwei's friend couldn't help but think of the stupid look of the little milk cat downstairs.

Xia Weiwei announced unilaterally, "That's it."

After speaking, Xia Weiwei slapped Tuanzi on the face.

After stamping in this way, it is your own.

Tuan Yu touched the place that seemed to still be warm, and looked away in embarrassment, his face also blushed quietly.

He didn't struggle anymore, and let Xia Weiwei's friend "smooth his hair".

"When the time comes, our child will definitely have blue eyes as beautiful as yours." Xia Xiaowei said confidently.

This time, Tuanzi even twitched his feet.

Xia Weiwei was completely unaware of Tuanzi's series of reactions.

In his eyes, there is only a silent fool.

If it weren't for his aunt taking Fang Jing on a trip, he wouldn't dare to take the tuanzi home.

He saw such a sentence in the elementary school textbook: happy time is always short.

Perhaps it was for this reason that the dumpling was picked up by the family.

They didn't even get a chance to say goodbye.

He could only see Tuanzi's chubby hands waving anxiously, and the words forced out of his mouth.

Tuanzi had to wait for him by himself.

Little friend Xia thought, anyway, he is free and fine.

Why not... reluctantly agree to his condition.

Every night, every morning, every minute and every second, he was waiting for the dumpling who promised to come back.

When passing the corner of the street, he would always look forward to the sudden appearance of Yin Zi.Seriously consider the possibility of the dumpling appearing before walking over.

It's like playing some game, Kemeng, there will always be a time to wake up.

Like this moment.

Xia Wei wakes up from a dream surrounded by flowers of memories, with Mu Ran's face in front of her eyes.

The sun, the beach, the wet, salty taste of the sea have long since disappeared.

He retrieved the promise that should have been remembered from the depths of his memory.

He thought that he could understand the sense of loss on Mu Ran's face.

But he also knew Mu Ran's stubbornness.

"Even so, you won't give up on me, right?" Xia Wei raised her hand, covering the glare of the light, and hiding the timidity in her eyes.

"What stupid things..." Mu Ran's gentle voice fell in his ears, with a certain persistence.

For a moment, Xia Wei felt Mu Ran's increased strength on her wrist.

"Without me, you would be a good husband and a good father."

Mu Ran lowered her eyes, Xia Wei couldn't catch any emotion from his face.

"I have become your obsession."

Gently stroking Xia Wei's lips, Mu Ran stopped his next words.

Seeing Xia Wei's dazed expression, Mu Ran made a low noise.

"Don't say it anymore..."

At that moment, Mu Ran's gentle eyes, almost sad, seemed to be Xia Wei's illusion.
