Chapter 556: As long as someone loves her -1

The sea breeze blew by her ear, making a whooshing sound.

The taste of the sea was salty, and that saltiness penetrated her heart.

When the heart was salted, it bizarrely soured.

Something trickled down her cheek.

When Baili Xia casually wiped it with her hand, her hand came away wet with tears.

Suddenly, she looked up and met Mu Xiaoyao’s gaze; she blinked innocently.

“I… it seems that some sand got in my eye, and the tears just started to flow.”

Mu Xiaoyao didn’t speak, he just looked at her.

Her face was already wet from a large patch of tears, but she insisted it was just sand in her eyes.

This girl, being so stubborn, wasn’t she hurting?

The type of person who doesn’t understand what it means to sigh, simply couldn’t help but sigh lightly.

“There’s nobody here, let alone anyone who knows you, if you want to cry…

just let it out.”

“I don’t want to cry.” She didn’t want to at all, really, she didn’t.

It didn’t matter to her if her mother didn’t love her; it was enough if she loved her mother.

They have been relying on each other for so many years, before they met the Mu family, her mother was her everything.

In the past, even if she was wronged, even if she was driven out of the house by Lu An, even if they were desperately poor.

But at least, she knew her mother loved her.

As long as there was someone in this world who loved her, she could bravely and stubbornly live on.

As long as there was someone still…

loving her.

But today, she suddenly realized her mother didn’t seem to love her as much as she’d imagined.

Her mother would rather love Lu An, love that father and daughter who didn’t treat her well, rather than…

love her.

Her mother even called her cruel, asking her to tell everyone that everything she said was nonsense, that everything was her fault.

It turned out that the person who she always assumed would love her deeply, didn’t love her…

It seemed that in this world, there was simply no one who loved her.

“I don’t want to cry, not at all… not one bit…”

She grabbed her collar tightly, pressing hard against where her heart was.

It hurt so much, her heart really ached, every part of her ached…

She was all alone in the world now, there was no one in this world who would love her again!

Her heart…

it hurt so much…

“You’re not crying, you just have sand in your eye,” he said.

Mu Xiaoyao suddenly reached out, pulled her into his arms, and held her head against his chest.

Baili Xia in this state…

it inexplicably made him ache.

“If sand gets in your eye, you need to cry it out.

Want to give it a try?”

“Really?

If I cry, will the sand come out?”

She didn’t know whether to believe him or not, but, her tears were already flowing incessantly, unstoppable.

“Yes, really, try crying. It’s not because you’re weak, you just want to get the sand out of your eyes.”

He placed his big palm on her head, pressing down hard.

“Quick, use your tears to wash out the sand.

Otherwise, your eyes will be ruined.”

“…sob…”

The suppressed sobs eventually clamoured into uncontrollable weeping.

She grabbed his clothes, the crying wouldn’t stop, she completely let herself go.

“Whimper…

she doesn’t want me, Mum doesn’t want me anymore, whimper…”

“I thought she always loved me, I thought there was still someone in this world who loved me, whimper…

”

“I have nothing, from now on, it’s just me, whimper…”

The fine sand lifted by the sea breeze rotated in the wind, falling in circles on the beach.

Her hoarse crying was almost dispersed by the sea breeze as soon as it left her lips.

The slender girl in his arms was trembling continuously.

In that moment, he could clearly feel her loneliness and despair.

He wanted to comfort her, but he couldn’t find any comforting words.

Wasn’t this girl being foolish?

Was it worth it for a person who didn’t love her?
