C107 (1/2)

The dim light skimmed over the slender fingertips, the scenery outside the car window passed by. ”Christmas Eve...”

The sky wasn't completely lit up yet. A drizzling rain, dim yellow lights, and the dark gray carriage was shaking.

Who would have thought that she would fall to such a state? ”Resisting the dizziness and discomfort, he touched the last fruit in his pocket and bit into it between his teeth. The light, sweet and salty taste of it filled the air with a clean, sweet fragrance.

The middle-aged woman was carrying a four or five-year-old boy. The child looked at her, then suddenly turned around and tugged at his mother's clothes. ”Mom, I want some sugar too.”

As she spoke, her gaze was still fixed on her.

”I didn't buy sugar.” The middle aged woman looked at Chen Cancan, and understood something, ”Miss, children cause trouble endlessly, do you still have more candy? Give him one and take it. ”

”No more.” Stunned, she shook her head. She couldn't swallow the sugar in her mouth, so she smiled awkwardly and showed the empty bag to the child, ”Nah, it's empty.”

Sure enough, the children started a ruckus. Everyone in the carriage looked over and frowned in annoyance. One must know that many people still needed to sleep.

”But I have a card, do you want to play?” Chen Cancan suddenly felt around for the thick stack of cards in her backpack. Although she had already lost a few, most of them were still there.

She slowly pushed away a half circle on the table. The child really did like strange things. She immediately grabbed a few and looked at the complicated patterns on the table. After turning it over and over, the child finally calmed down and let out a sigh of relief.

”Elder sister, what is this picture?” The child approached her with great interest, tears of interest still dripping down her cheeks.

”This one …” She was stunned for a moment. If this card was aimed at her, then the child's move would be upside-down? He frowned and whispered, ”Sitting on the throne is the emperor. He is wearing a jeweled crown and holds a scepter.”

The fourth card of the Tarot, Akana the Great, is the Emperor, whose main source of power is wisdom, which governs all things in the world. The Emperor's position was supreme, and his authority could not be questioned.

When the deck is upright, it represents strong will and steady energy.

When the card is upside-down, it means willfulness, brutality and cruelty...

He opened his mouth, but no words came out. So what if he did? She was just a child, so she couldn't understand even if she heard him. She yawned, leaned against the window, and slowly closed her eyes. If she slept for a bit, she would probably wake up soon …

It was already morning by the time they arrived at the destination station. She slept for a while, and other than the bumps along the way, her bones hurt, but she was in good spirits.

After getting off the car, she realized that she couldn't find where he was anymore. What was his identity now? Could he have gotten married and built a family? Could it be that his son had already left? Will you... Forgot her?

She went back to school, but the gatekeeper didn't recognize her. Fortunately, she still remembered the names of the teachers who had taught her and gave their names. Moreover, it just so happened to be a Saturday.
