C255 (2/2)

Chu Yu hugged Youzi and laughed helplessly, he got in the car and closed the door, the shadow of the street light quickly jumping past his shoulders.

Youzi's mood was exceptionally high tonight. Along the way, she told stories and sang songs, quickly livening the originally silent atmosphere. This is good too, Chu Yu thought quietly, it would save her the embarrassment of staying with Xiang Qicheng.

”Uncle, what is this?” Suddenly, Youzi stopped babbling, her small hand grabbing onto a pendant wrapped in the rearview mirror of the car.

It was a felt pendant, and the creator's technique was obviously not very proficient. The small gaps between the pads were crooked to the point that it was impossible to tell what kind of small animal the pendant was. However, her facial features were very exquisite and cute, making her look innocent and charming.

Chu Yu looked up and was immediately stunned. This was the first felt pendant that she had personally made several years ago.

Back then, when she saw all kinds of cute little toys on the internet, she had a whim and bought a bunch of materials to follow the tutorial online. She was clumsy and it took her a long time to see it all once. Even such an ugly young man took her three days to finish it.

After finishing all of them, he would excitedly show off to Xiang Qicheng but to no avail. After being ruthlessly mocked for a long time, Chu Yu was so angry that he would never do it again. She never thought that Xiang Qicheng would actually keep that pendant in his inventory even after such a long time, much less thought that he would hang it in the car.

Since returning home, she hadn't noticed it while sitting in the car several times. She didn't expect that Youzi would see it at a glance. Was it because she was careless or Youzi was too meticulous?

”This is a gift from uncle's best friend.” During the time between the red and green lights, Xiang Qicheng reached out to take off the pendant and give it to Youzi, at the same time, he secretly observed Chu Yu's expression through the car's rearview mirror. The neon light outside the window shone onto her face. She looked at the item in Youzi's hand with an indifferent expression, the emotions in her eyes did not fluctuate at all, and Xiang Qicheng could not help but feel disappointed.

This pendant was extremely important to him. Initially, he had only been able to take a glance at it when he thought of Chu Yu, but it had later become some sort of insistence and motivation for him. They thought that Chu Yu would feel surprised seeing this, but he didn't expect her to have no reaction at all.

”Uncle, can you give this to Youzi? Youzi will trade cotton candy with you. ” With her other hand, she took out a independently packaged cotton candy from her small pocket and wanted to give it to Xiang Qicheng. Uncle Zuo Lin had given this to him, as he originally wanted to save it for his mother before he went to sleep.

”No, this is the most important thing to uncle, I won't exchange it for anything.” Xiang Qicheng replied with a serious tone.

Taking back the toy from Youzi's hand, then carefully putting it back into the car's rearview mirror, seeing everything that Xiang Qicheng had done, Chu Yu's heart suddenly had an indescribable feeling.

If it had been earlier, would he have cherished himself so much that everything he had given him would have ended up differently?
