Chapter 1019: Chapter 1019: No Sister; Embrace
After Su Yunling finished speaking, Gu Zhiqi’s figure paused slightly, and then she murmured in a low voice, "Name?"
After reciting it, her eyes were evidently filled with confusion. She looked at Su Yunling, shook her head gently, and spoke with some helplessness, "I forgot."
"I forgot my sister’s name."
As Gu Zhiqi said this, her brows furrowed, and the confusion in her eyes deepened.
Who is my sister?
Do I have a sister?
Am I not an orphan?
How could I have a sister?
Seeing her like this, Su Yunling remembered the mourning emotions she exuded when she had a nightmare last time.
Not wanting to see her fall into that kind of emotion again, Su Yunling reached out and gently ruffled Gu Zhiqi’s hair, "If you’ve forgotten, then just forget it. Don’t think about it, okay?"
Gu Zhiqi, however, gently shook her head, "I haven’t forgotten, I must have remembered wrong, I don’t have a sister."
After she said this, a face quickly flashed through Gu Zhiqi’s mind.
It seemed to be... the image of a sister.
But it was unclear.
Besides, do I have a sister?
The more she thought about it, the more Gu Zhiqi felt a sharp pain in her mind.
Gu Zhiqi winced slightly, staggered a few steps, and at the same time raised her hand to hold her head.
The headache was intense, the more she tried to remember, the more it hurt.
Finally, the pain made Gu Zhiqi curl up, tightly holding her head with both hands.
Seeing this, Su Yunling was anxious, "What’s wrong? Is it a headache?"
As he spoke, he approached Gu Zhiqi, supported her arm with one hand, and half-hugged her, saying gently, "Don’t think about it anymore. Close your eyes and rest for a bit, okay?"
A deep, soothing voice sounded by her ear, and immediately afterward, Gu Zhiqi was enveloped in a cool breath.
Whether it was the voice that could comfort people or the breath that gave peace of mind, Gu Zhiqi felt the pain in her mind lessen.
Originally, Gu Zhiqi wanted to recall that blurry face, but due to the earlier pain, and with Su Yunling’s intervention, she ultimately stopped trying to think about it.
Instead, she obediently closed her eyes and leaned half-leaning against Su Yunling’s arms.
Although it was only their second meeting, this person gave her a reassuring feeling.
Su Yunling kept a close watch on Gu Zhiqi’s condition, and when he saw her close her eyes to rest, he let out a small sigh of relief.
Feeling a bit regretful, he thought he shouldn’t have asked the child about her sister earlier.
Seeing Gu Zhiqi’s face didn’t look good, Su Yunling furrowed his brows slightly, took out his phone, and sent a message to Yun Miao.
**
Ten minutes later, the car door was opened, and Yun Miao, holding a bowl of sobering-up soup, saw the scene inside the car.
Inside the car, Gu Zhiqi was quietly leaning against Su Yunling’s embrace, her entire face buried in Su Yunling’s arms, looking inexplicably well-behaved.
Upon seeing this, Yun Miao was directly stunned.
This...
How did the progress between him and Miss Gu happen so quickly?
"Give it to me." Su Yunling turned his gaze and said lightly to Yun Miao.
As soon as Su Yunling spoke, Yun Miao snapped back to reality and immediately handed the sobering-up soup to Su Yunling.
After taking the sobering-up soup, Su Yunling lowered his gaze slightly and focused on Gu Zhiqi’s face.
The hand around Gu Zhiqi’s shoulder moved gently, "Wake up, have some sobering-up soup."
The person in his arms moved slightly, rubbed against him with a bit of displeasure, then continued to sleep, showing no desire to wake up.
Feeling Gu Zhiqi’s movements, Su Yunling’s body stiffened slightly, and the hand holding the bowl suddenly tightened.
Maintaining the posture of holding the bowl, Su Yunling took a deep breath and then moved his hand slightly again.
