With a creaking noise, it seemed that the sound of the door opening could be heard.
Footsteps approached from far to near, then halted by her side.
It seemed like someone was looking at her. She didn't know how much time had passed before the mattress beside her sank.
Who was it? Who was by her side?
A palm landed on her.
Don't, don't come, don't touch her.
An Ziqi desperately tried to open her eyes and turn around, but she didn't have an ounce of strength in her body.
A voice, frigid to the extreme, came from behind her, "Turn around, don't let me see your face, don't..."
She didn't hear the rest of the sentence.
"No."
An Ziqi screamed and abruptly opened her eyes.
Xiao Yining was wiping her face with a small towel and urgently called out, "Mommy."
"Don't, don't come."
An Ziqi's eyes were vacant as she stared ahead, unconsciously calling out.
Xiao Moli swiftly moved forward, enfolding An Ziqi in his arms.
An Ziqi struggled fiercely, trying to push him away.
