205 Meatball Leaves Temporarily
[There’s something I have to tell you...]
Meatball was a little hesitant, not knowing if it should let the kid know about this. However, it was impossible to hide it. The kid would find out eventually.
Little Ah Yu had already followed Yang Liu out. When she squatted in front of a bush of flowers, she asked casually, “Is there anything?”
Wasn’t it a happy thing that the mall was coming?
[I originally thought that the mall would only be completely opened after you completed the farming mission. However, the mission this time was completed with a high evaluation, so the entire mall was unlocked in advance.]
[The mall has been unlocked, and the spatial pocket needs to be upgraded. I have to go back too.]
[So, I might have to leave you for a while.]
Little Ah Yu was dumbfounded and even felt a little sad for a moment. “Elf, are you leaving me? Why! Did I do something wrong? Can you not leave?”
[Kid, I have to go. The opening of the mall requires special energy. I don’t have it on me now, and you don’t have enough.]
[I’m going home to get the special key.]
[Don’t worry. I’ll use my energy to maintain the operation of the spatial pocket. At that time, you can still use the spatial pocket. It’s just that you have to know how to organize it. Don’t mess it up, lest you can’t find what you want.]
Even if Meatball explained it like this, Little Ah Yu was still very sad. She was especially afraid that the elf would leave just like that.
As for whether the spatial pocket was there, Little Ah Yu did not care very much. She liked the elf who lived in the spatial pocket more.
“Is it because Ah Yu is too stupid and didn’t do the mission well that you want to go home...” Little Ah Yu was instantly disappointed, and even her eyes drooped.
At the side, Yang Liu sensed Little Ah Yu’s emotions and hurriedly hugged her. She asked softly, “Ah Yu, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Or don’t you like this flower?”
Little Ah Yu wanted to answer, but she accidentally squeezed out the tears in her eyes.
Initially, she was still holding it in with all her might. But the moment a tear fell, it was like a floodgate opening.
Her tears were simply unstoppable.
They flowed like a river.
At this moment, Yang Liu was completely flustered.
“Aiya, why are you crying?”
“Wuwuwu, I’m leaving...” Little Ah Yu hugged Yang Liu and sobbed. “Liu’er, I need to go, wuwuwu...”
Little Ah Yu did not wail. Instead, she whimpered softly, like an injured puppy, not daring to make a louder sound.
This made Yang Liu a little helpless.
“I, I’ll call Mother over!”
Little Ah Yu hurriedly pulled her back and wanted to speak, but she burped. “I-burp, it’s fine.” Little Ah Yu shook her head. “Don’t let the teacher come.”
It was so embarrassing.
Little Ah Yu pursed her lips and tried her best to hold back her surging tears.
“I’m not crying anymore.”
However, her eyes were red like a rabbit.
And it was a sniffling rabbit.
Yang Liu was even more worried, afraid that there was something wrong with Little Ah Yu.
Seeing Little Ah Yu like this, Meatball felt horrible as well.
It wanted to tell her that it would not leave, but if it did not leave, it would not be able to open the mall.
There were many things that it wanted Ah Yu to have, but it could not obtain them. It could not lose the big picture for a small gain.
[Kid, if you’re not strong, I’ll be unhappy.] Meatball could only harden its heart and say.
Little Ah Yu was stunned.
[I’ll be back soon. You just have to wait for me. I’ll bring you some specialties then! My hometown has a lot of delicious food. I’ll think of a way to bring some over for you!]
Compared to the delicious food, Little Ah Yu wanted Meatball to stay even more.
However, the elf had already said that it would be unhappy. She wanted to be a brave child.
Little Ah Yu secretly clenched her fists and told herself.
Ah Yu, Ah Yu, you’re no longer the original Ah Yu. You’ve grown up. You have to be a smart and sensible Ah Yu.
Don’t make the elf unhappy!
The elf was so good. The elf’s family must be even better. You can’t be so selfish.
The elf must be homesick too.
Hence, Little Ah Yu said to Meatball, “Then go home and play more. I’ll listen to the adults well. I won’t be sad or cry.”
[...] Should it remind her? Actually, it could see all her thoughts.
Forget it, it was better not to say anything lest the kid asked how to block it out in the future.
The kid was still young. It had to keep an eye on her mind from time to time to prevent her thoughts from slipping.
In any case, when the kid could make decisions on her own in the future and her mind became more mature, its prying ability would automatically be removed.
[Then I’m leaving.]
Meatball did not dawdle. After instructing the kid, it followed the guiding energy and disappeared from the spot.
Little Ah Yu felt something and her eyes welled up again.
...
Seeing Yang Liu’s worried gaze, Little Ah Yu reached out and rubbed her eyes, revealing a strange smile. “I’m fine. I’m not crying.”
“Alright, then let’s look at this flower.” Yang Liu thought that Little Ah Yu would definitely feel embarrassed. She should not ask.
In any case, after she finished crying, she was most afraid that someone would ask her why she was crying. She would feel embarrassed.
After the two of them finished looking at the flowers, the second class began again. Mrs. Yang came over with a basket of things to teach the children to recognize objects.
Everyone swarmed over. Little Ah Yu and Yang Liu held each other’s hands and skipped over.
At this moment, Meatball, who was undergoing a spatial transition, was especially anxious.
[I wonder how sad the kid will be after I leave. She’ll definitely cry until she’s out of breath, right?]
[Sigh, I just left and I miss her already.]
Little Ah Yu, who was being missed by Meatball, received a rattle drum after finishing the class with Mrs. Yang.
She waved the rattle drum and laughed.
“Liu’er, Liu’er, look, this is so fun! Haha, it’s so fun. Let’s play together!”
...
“Hahahaha.”
Seeing the overjoyed Little Ah Yu, Yang Liu secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Perhaps Little Ah Yu just cried for no reason. She should be fine.
It was like the little brother next door sleeping in swaddling clothes. Occasionally, he would suddenly cry.
It was very normal.
In the afternoon, Little Ah Yu left school and returned to the Wang Family with Wang Liulang.
This time, they did not play on the street and quickly rushed home.
This was because they were especially curious and wanted to know if that little girl was taken in by Old Madam Wang.
When they returned home, they realized that the adults were all doing their own things. They did not see the little girl or Uncle Chen.
As soon as Little Ah Yu walked in, the lamb and the Spirit Treasure Rat rushed towards her.
The little lamb rubbed against Little Ah Yu’s knee very nimbly, and the Spirit Treasure Rat jumped onto the top of Little Ah Yu’s head.
It made Little Ah Yu laugh.
“Ah Yu, you’re back? I left you sweet soy milk in the kitchen. Go and drink it while it’s hot.” Liu Shi, who was sweeping the courtyard, greeted Ah Yu when she saw her.
“Mother, where’s that Big Sister?” Little Ah Yu was not in a hurry to drink the soy milk.
