Ugh, didn't the awakening system let me be the master?

The little cat hiding in the quilt had its tail pressed down, and it screamed, "Meow!!!"

It’s over, it’s over…

Young Xu Liya clenched her hands tightly, not knowing what to do for a moment...

188. Prequel (Part )

Noticing the movement under the quilt, Xu Liya's father immediately lifted the quilt and saw Xiao Mi lying weakly on the bed, as if she was sick and looked extremely weak.

Mom and Dad didn't support Xu Liya raising Xiao Mi in the first place, and they were still a little angry after Xu Liya pushed them away just now. Now seeing Xiao Mi looking so sick, Dad immediately pointed at Xiao Mi and said.

"Xu Yali, I've told you before that you can't keep a cat like this that you picked up from the wild. Now she's so sick, throw her away right away!"

After seeing this scene, Xu Liya's mind was still blank. The young girl didn't know how to deal with this situation.

In fact, although Xiao Mi was rescued, her physical condition has not been very good. She would become like this from time to time, and this time she happened to be seen by Xu Liya's parents.

Xiao Mi was rescued by her and Gui Ye together. If she was thrown away now, how would she explain to Gui Ye the next day?

"Well, Xiao Mi is just a little sick, I'll take care of her, it's okay!"

After hearing what her father said, little Xu Liya came to her senses and hurriedly tried to snatch Xiao Mi from her father's hands. However, due to the height difference and strength difference, how could the young Xu Liya possibly compare to her father?

Dad grabbed Xiao Mi and went out. The sick Xiao Mi tried hard to break free from Dad's hands, but failed in the end.

Not only that, Xiao Mi's struggle also aroused her father's irritation, and without saying a word, he slapped Xiao Mi hard on the body.

"How dare a dead cat move?"

"Woo!"

This scene made Xu Liya, who had taken good care of Xiao Mi for so long, feel heartbroken. She wanted to stop her father, but was stopped by her mother.

"Liya, be obedient."

"But Xiao Mi!"

"How about this, it's not a good idea for the cat to be sick at home. Let's take it to the veterinary hospital. It's better than just keeping it here, right?"

"Then I want to go too!!"

"No, you need to get ready for bed!"

Mother's voice was much harsher than before. Xu Liya knew that if she went on such a trip, she would definitely come back very late, so she had no choice but to compromise.

"All right……"

Xu Liya sat back on the bed, her eyes full of confusion.

She didn't know whether her parents would really take her baby to the veterinarian, but she could only pin her hopes on this possibility.

After all, even if we wanted to snatch her, it would be impossible to get her back from her parents.

Xu Liya waited anxiously like this. After about ten minutes, the door opened again. It was her father who came back.

Only a dozen minutes later, the father came back, and he was not holding Xiao Mi in his arms.

What was Xiao Mi's final outcome? Xiao Xuliya seemed to have already known the answer in her heart, but she still held on to the last bit of hope, walked to the door, and asked carefully.

"Dad, where's Xiao Mi?"

"Throw it away."

Dad replied calmly while changing his shoes.

"Throw it away?"

Xu Liya's heart tightened when she heard her father's answer.

Then, the mother held a brand new kitten and walked up to little Xu Liya, showing it with a smile on her face.

"But I bought a new cat for Liya. It's much cuter than that one. Do you like it?"

Xu Liya was stunned for a moment, then ran out the door without even looking at the cat in her mother's arms.

It was night time and there was a drizzle, but the street lights in the community had not aged yet and the view was still very good.

But looking at the scene in front of her, Xu Liya was confused and didn't know how to find Xiao Mi.

If I go back and ask my parents now, I feel that the possibility of getting any hope is very slim.

And there was another fatal point. She was a little girl, alone outside at night, and she was very scared...

After some thought, Xu Liya decided to go find Gui Ye first. Although she felt sorry for Gui Ye for losing Xiaomi, the most urgent task was to find Xiaomi back as soon as possible.

It's raining outside now and Xiao Mi is sick. If we don't find her back quickly, things may become irreversible.

Thinking of this, Xu Liya ran to Gui Ye's door as quickly as possible and knocked on the door hard and quickly.

"Gui Ye, open the door quickly, it's me, Xu Liya! Open the door quickly."

Soon, the door was opened, and the person who opened it was Gui Ye who was wearing pajamas. He rubbed his eyes and looked at Xu Liya sleepily.

"what happened?"

"My parents threw Xiao Mi away somewhere and she's gone, wuwuwu..."

Xu Liya stamped her feet anxiously, and the tears on her face mixed with the rain that had fallen on her along the way.

Hearing this, Xiao Guiye, who was still a little confused, was immediately awakened.

Gui Ye had already seen what kind of people Xu Liya's parents were, so he immediately became anxious.

"Then let's go find it quickly!"

Pulling Xu Liya's hand, Gui Ye hurried out, and Xu Liya reminded him again.

"It's still raining outside, why don't we get an umbrella and go over there."

"Ah good!"

After hearing Xu Liya's words, Gui Ye immediately turned around, picked up the umbrella, closed the door, and ran downstairs.

Young Xu Liya stared at Gui Ye's face, and for some reason she felt at ease.

Compared to facing the loss of Xiao Mi alone, it feels much more reassuring to face it with Gui Ye.

"How long were your parents gone when they dumped Xiao Mi?"

"About ten minutes?"

"If it takes more than ten minutes, it will probably be thrown into the garbage dump on the bridge, or somewhere on the roadside, or in a trash can... The range is huge..."

"What should we do then?" Xu Liya asked worriedly.

"Let's look for it together. It's still raining now. Given Xiao Mi's physical condition, if it continues like this, there will be big problems!"

"Um!!"

Although it was the same as when I was alone, searching around like a headless fly, it was still much better than being alone...

"By the way, you should wear this. You must be in a hurry to run out without wearing anything, right?"

Gui Ye put the coat he had just picked up when he went out to get an umbrella on Xu Liya, and then began to look for Xiao Mi in all places where she might be.

Xu Liya took a look at the coat that Gui Ye put on her, and then looked at Gui Ye who was looking for Xiao Mi seriously. The young Xu Liya couldn't help but have a sense of déjà vu.

Xiao Mi was like a child, she and Gui Ye took care of her so that she could survive. So in this case...

At this time, Gui Ye's voice interrupted Xu Liya.

"We've already searched there. Come quickly. We can't get separated. It's very dangerous at this late hour."

"Oh, um!"

Hearing this, Xu Liya immediately followed.

If Xiao Mi is a child, then Gui Ye and I are just like a father and a mother. Then the relationship between me and Gui Ye...

189. Prequel (Part )

After a long search, young Gui Ye and Xu Liya were exhausted, but Xiao Mi had not been found yet, so the two had to continue searching in the long night.

Although they brought an umbrella, their clothes were inevitably wet to varying degrees by the rain. But the young Gui Ye and Xu Liya both knew that if they gave up here, all their previous efforts would be wasted and everything they had done would become meaningless.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, Gui Ye noticed a soft white thing in the garbage pile on the bridge. However, because the distance was too far and the rain blurred his vision, Gui Ye could not confirm it. But he still pointed to the front and spoke to Xu Liya.

"Well, could it be Xiao Mi?"

Xu Liya looked in the direction of Gui Ye's finger and was delighted. "It seems to be Xiao Mi!"

The two of them simultaneously quickened their pace and moved closer to the white object, only then did they confirm that it was Xiao Mi.

At this time, Xiao Mi was no longer moving, and curled up into a small ball helplessly in the rain.

Seeing this, Xu Liya anxiously quickened her pace and moved towards Xiao Mi.

"Don't be afraid, little Mi, we are coming to find you!"

But even after hearing Xu Liya's voice, Xiao Mi still didn't move.

Xu Liya felt as if she was electrocuted when she saw this scene. The worst possible scenario occurred to her mind. Anxious, she quickened her pace, not caring about the garbage pile that might dirty her clothes, and quickly approached Xiao Mi.

She picked up Xiao Mi's body, but could not feel any warmth.

At this point, Xu Liya's heart was completely dead. She collapsed weakly, knelt on the ground, and her mind went blank.

"Xiao Mi it...woo."

Seeing this scene, Gui Ye immediately understood what had happened. Seeing Xu Liya so sad, Gui Ye's heart was filled with frustration, and his nose began to feel sore.

"Is it too late after all?"

Perhaps because they were too sad, the young Gui Ye and Xu Liya did not show much emotion. They just stood in the rain in a daze for a long time.

At the same time, the weather suddenly turned into heavy rain without any warning, soaking the two of them mercilessly.

Gui Ye, who was standing next to Xu Liya, finally came to his senses and pulled Xu Liya, who was kneeling on the ground, up.

"Let's go back first. If we continue like this, we will catch a cold too..."

Gui Ye said this as he patted the stains off Xu Liya's body.

After hearing Gui Ye's words, Xu Liya finally calmed down a little. She nodded and slowly got up from the ground.

"Go back first. It's raining so hard tonight. Just stay at my house. As for your parents, I'll ask the aunt next door to call them and tell them."

"Woo..."

Xu Liya nodded and held Xiao Mi tightly in her arms.

But even so, how long can I hold her?

The two returned to Gui Ye's home. Because Gui Ye's parents were fully preparing for the birth of the fetus in Gui Ye's mother's belly, there were only Gui Ye and Xu Liya in Gui Ye's home tonight.

After explaining the situation to the aunt next door and Xu Liya's parents, Gui Ye returned dragging his tired body.

At this time, Xu Liya had already been lying on the bed. Under the strong trend of fatigue, Xu Liya fell asleep in just a short while.

She still held Xiao Mi in her arms, but unfortunately, Xiao Mi was now on the other side of the world...

…………

"So be it……"

Looking at the earth slope in front of her where Xiao Mi was buried, Xu Liya slowly stood up. The young Xu Liya covered her face and cried again.

Gui Ye, who was the same age, was equally sad, but he did not show much emotional fluctuation. He just rubbed Xu Liya's hair and comforted her softly.

"Things have come to this, there is no other way."

“Uh, um…”

Feeling Gui Ye's gentle touch, Xu Liya felt better, but she still couldn't suppress the grief in her heart.

Although Xiao Mi's departure brought a great blow to Xu Liya, fortunately, Gui Ye was always by her side as a good friend.

The two of them are still the same as before, waiting for each other to get out of school, going home together, sharing what happened during the day, and playing together.

Even when each other's parents are not around, they can sleep together at one of their homes.

As time passed, the pain that Xiao Mi's departure brought to Xu Liya gradually faded, but this situation did not last long.

On the weekend, Xu Liya arrived early at the place they had agreed to meet at, which was a small park in the center of the community, as agreed with Gui Ye.
