A Snow Biscuit

Chapter 102 Can You Play With Me?

"I'm so sorry!"

The mother hurried over and sincerely apologized to Chen Yuan, who was holding her daughter high in the air. While her tone was apologetic, there was a hint of pleading in her eyes: this child has difficulties, she didn't do it on purpose.

She really didn't mean to run into me.

But how dare you drift on such a winding road with such poor driving skills?

Do you even know how to do a gutter run?

"It's okay." Chen Yuan shook his head and said, "Xinyu, help this auntie get her wheelchair upright."

"Okay."

Xia Xinyu quickly went over to help.

Then, the two women straightened the somewhat heavy electric wheelchair. Chen Yuan, on the other hand, put the female driver back in her place.

And she, like a delicate doll, remained still and silent.

Only her eyes were fixed on him.

Although it wasn't as eerie as in those movies and TV shows, let alone yandere, this 'devotion' made Chen Yuan feel immense pressure.

Before Buddha converts someone, he needs a little Yuanzi.

Am I really going to be a free god, saving so many people?

It would be one thing if I could restore her legs.

But she can only find freedom in dreams.

And this superpower is about to expire this week, and there will be a price to pay if I use it again next time. Do I really need to pay so much to fulfill a child's dream?

This was Chen Yuan's inner voice.

It was selfish, he had to admit.

But it was what he truly thought.

Girl, the dream is a reality that can never be reached.

"Do you know this child?" Xia Xinyu asked curiously.

She was sure she had heard the child say that she had listened to her mother and asked Chen Yuan when he would come to see her again.

It was as if Chen Yuan had promised the child something, and the condition was—to listen to her mother.

"But that's strange." Her mother also found it odd, saying, "I've been with her all the time, and I haven't seen you."

"I feel the same way," Chen Yuan nodded in agreement, "This is the first time I've spoken to her."

Xiao Shen, that was a dream, forget about it.

"I had a dream."

Shen Xiaoran suddenly spoke.

Then, all three of them turned their attention to her.

This sentence was no less than "all eyes on me."

But Chen Yuan was more worried that this... pitiful child was going to reveal what happened in the dream.

Even if no one believed it, Xinyu had also been in his dream. If she found any similarities in her description, then this time, it would be more dangerous than with Wu Yixiang.

Shen Xiaoran said, "I dreamed that I was a cursed sleeping princess, and a prince kissed me, and then I woke up."

"I see..." The mother still found it strange.

Aren't you watching *Stellar Transformations*? How could you have the kind of dream that normal little girls who read fairy tales have?

"Then the prince said, listen to your mother, and I'll come play with you again next time."

Shen Xiaoran said, deliberately lowering her psychological age, with a smiling, innocent, and childish tone.

Secret technique—playing dumb.

"In the dream..." However, seeing her daughter so innocent and lovely, the mother felt relieved, as she had been too serious in the past. So, she looked at Chen Yuan and asked, "Is the prince in the dream very similar to this big brother?"

"No." Shen Xiaoran said directly.

Hearing this, Chen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

And Xia Xinyu seemed to relax as well. Perhaps she really had recalled her own overly realistic dream.

The mother smiled and jokingly asked, "If he's not like him, why did you say that to him?"

"But this brother will do too."

"..."

As soon as she said that, the atmosphere became awkward.

Chen Yuan was dumbfounded.

Wait, this is so promiscuous?

Xia Xinyu also frowned slightly, wanting to say something in her heart, but then she thought that the other person was a child, so she didn't comment.

But obviously, things that are generally hard to comment on are essentially bad reviews.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, children are innocent... Please forgive me." The mother quickly explained.

Seriously, what is her daughter doing?

What is she saying in front of someone else's girlfriend?

Although you are only eleven and a half years old, you are already a big girl, you need to read the room!

"The little girl is quite cute, you don't need to apologize." Xia Xinyu politely nodded with a light smile, appearing quite reserved and dignified.

Oh, so this is the majesty of the legal wife?

Obviously, this immortal sister that the immortal big brother spoke of is her.

No wonder he was so straightforward with a little girl like her that day, not giving in at all.

Is it because he has such a beautiful girlfriend?

So, he has adopted my suggestion and given her a great birthday?

"Um, can you come over here for a moment?"

After locking the wheelchair, the mother took Chen Yuan and Xia Xinyu aside, wanting to apologize again separately. So, she said sincerely, "This child's legs aren't congenital, they became like this because of an illness she got later in life. So, she's always been in a bad mood, and she can't go to school, so she can only read some books by herself... What she meant just now was just complimenting you for looking like a prince. Of course, children's ideas are very simple, there's no other meaning."

"Oh..." Chen Yuan didn't know what to say.

The happiness Chen Yuan gets from the opposite sex praising his handsomeness is a 5, and because he has to appear reserved, he can't arrogantly respond.

Of course, if a boy says he's handsome, then the gold content is too high, it's even like directly calling him dad, the happiness level is at a 9.

And if that person is Zhou Yu, Chen Yuan would be 10 points happy to hear him say that.

After all, every father hopes to become the most handsome hero in his son's eyes.

"Can her condition be cured?" Xia Xinyu asked somewhat cautiously.

Hearing this, the mother's expression became somewhat complicated, but she also had a desire to confide. So, she said, "She had been receiving drug treatment, but these drugs can't be taken too much, they contain hormones, and too much will affect her body's growth. So, we thought about rehabilitation training, and after persisting for a period of time, it did have some effect. Her legs were completely numb before, but now her big toes can move."

"That's a good thing, it shows that she's getting better," Xia Xinyu comforted her.

"It's a good thing, but the rehabilitation center that we went to that had an effect is private, and it doesn't use medical insurance, it's quite expensive. After insisting for half a year, we spent over two hundred thousand." At this point, the mother's tone gradually became serious, "Later, Ranran said that she didn't want to go anymore, and she couldn't feel any improvement. Then, we went to an ordinary rehabilitation center, and we had physical therapy and massages twice a week, but it was obviously not as effective as before... We can only say that we've maintained her condition."

Chen Yuan roughly calculated that the kind of rehabilitation center that Xiao Shen went to cost 40,000 a month, which was quite expensive.

And her mother was obviously taking care of her full-time and couldn't go to work.

Then her father, who was a boxing gym coach, had really built his own world with his bare hands.

"Actually, we felt that if we treated her for another year or so, it would definitely have an effect, but Ranran she..." The mother felt guilty every time she thought of this.

Because it was this child, who was less than twelve years old, who suggested giving up.

And in order to make them give up, Ranran even made a big scene, saying that she hated rehabilitation training, and that she would rather be paralyzed than go to a place full of pungent medicinal smells every day.

In fact, she understood that Ranran just didn't want to add any more burdens to herself.

After all, that period of time was really difficult.

Although their family wasn't poor, it was difficult for any Chinese family to take out 500,000 yuan at once.

"Ah, why am I telling you this." The mother quickly retracted her low expression and thanked Chen Yuan again, "Thank you for being here today, otherwise, I don't know what would have happened."

It was nothing.

If I wasn't here, who would she crash her wheelchair into?

"You're welcome."

"By the way, I have a small request." Although she was talking to Chen Yuan, she felt that she was sorry for the girl next to her, so the mother cautiously asked, "Could he talk to her about something? I think the child likes... she feels very close to you."

"Sure, I'll encourage her."

Chen Yuan gave an okay gesture and then walked towards Shen Xiaoran.

And after Chen Yuan left, the mother said to Xia Xinyu in a very embarrassed tone, "Children don't understand anything. I'm just... borrowing him for a moment?"

Xia Xinyu nodded with a smile and said in a humorous tone, "It's okay, borrow him."

………

"You're a god, right?"

Seeing that Chen Yuan was the only one who came, Shen Xiaoran no longer concealed anything.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"I know."

Looking at him, Shen Xiaoran said with certainty, "That day on the road, you pinched my face. Then, in the dream, I met you. To be precise, that wasn't a dream, because the flow of time was the same as in reality, and it was very real, I even smelled the sea and the scent of grass, so that should be called... a mystic realm?"

"Read less fantasy." Chen Yuan couldn't hold it in anymore.

How is this kid so smart?

"Mouth." Even though he kept denying it, Shen Xiaoran still insisted. Pointing to her own mouth, she said with certainty, "When you were about to leave, I kissed you on the face, there was even saliva on my lips."

"Hiss... why are you talking about saliva." Chen Yuan felt disgusted.

Also, don't talk about kissing.

This is my first kiss!

Seeing his expression, Shen Xiaoran protested, "What's wrong, it's not disgusting, a beautiful girl's saliva is sweet."

"Are you a beautiful girl?" Chen Yuan immediately asked back.

But she really is.

Of course, because she's a kid, this beautiful girl doesn't have much gold content.

"That's because I was still young, I definitely can't compare to that goddess now." Shen Xiaoran became anxious and said quite competitively, "But you wait until I grow up, whether it's my figure or my face, it will definitely..."

"Alright."

Making a stop gesture, Chen Yuan told her to shut up, then squatted down slightly, showed a smile, and comforted her, "Ranran, I hope you're happy every day."

"Are you completing a KPI? You suddenly have a business smile..."

Shen Xiaoran frowned, immediately seeing through that her mother had asked him to encourage her, so she showed a very disgusted expression.

Damn, this kid is really hard to fool.

"Alright, goodbye Ranran."

Waving his hand, Chen Yuan wanted to end this topic, after all, this guy is very smart, something will really happen if they keep talking.

"Okay... goodbye."

Seeing that his attitude was already clear, Shen Xiaoran could only lower her head in disappointment, no longer entangled.

"Listen to your mother."

Chen Yuan also felt some sympathy, so before leaving, he put his hand on her head and touched it, sincerely wishing her well.

"Yeah, I will." Shen Xiaoran nodded in agreement, and then suddenly asked with concern, "Did she have a happy birthday?"

"Yeah, she was very happy."

After answering, Chen Yuan was just about to get up when Shen Xiaoran suddenly grabbed his arm, revealing a childishly triumphant smile like 'you lost': "Hey, that's so strange, how would I know about the goddess's birthday?"

...Damn!

I was careless, I was so careless.

"I know, the god in the dream is real." Shen Xiaoran looked at this god, and she pleaded devoutly, "Just one more time, please."

"..."

Chen Yuan was the least willing to hear the words "please."

Because after he hears them, he will definitely soften.

Even if Zhou Yu said to him, "Please, Dad, let me have a bite," Chen Yuan would generously give him the last bite of bread.

"Please~"

Seeing that her sincerity had already shaken him, Shen Xiaoran blinked her big eyes, looking at Chen Yuan pitifully, using her own weakness to overcome his strength.

"Don't give me a surprise I can't handle."

If her mother wasn't still watching from behind, Chen Yuan's husky pointing gesture would have already come out at this time.

Her eyebrows were furrowed like waves, and her mouth was slightly pouting. Shen Xiaoran had already used a terrifying secret technique that could cause Japanese otaku to have a heart attack.

"Go to bed early tonight."

And Chen Yuan just left these words behind, then pinched her cheek and turned to leave.

The god had marked her.

This means…

Did he agree?

"Ranran, are you really okay, did you not fall?" After the mother returned to her side, she asked seriously again.

"No, I'm completely fine."

Shen Xiaoran shook her head, her tone was quite relaxed.

Honestly, when the wheelchair overturned, her legs were basically just for decoration, and at that moment, she was like a drowning person, only helpless.

In that short moment, she also thought of the scene where everyone would cast their eyes on her in embarrassment after she fell to the ground, looking at her with pity.

Compared to falling and bumping her head, what she didn't want the most was for everyone to pity her disability.

Then, she flew up.

At that time, Shen Xiaoran really felt that she was taller than anyone else.

Even though she should have felt ashamed to be lifted high by a boy, as she was already a teenage girl...

"I see that you seem to be very happy today?"

The mother clearly saw a smile on her daughter's face.

It seems that she really likes this boy.

But to call out to him so rashly, especially when he has a girlfriend...

Oh well, happiness is already very difficult for Ranran.

"It's okay."

In order to avoid her mother misunderstanding, Shen Xiaoran restrained her smile. Then, she said quite aloofly, "Let's go home."

"Huh, are we going home so early?"

"Yeah."

"But we can, but what are we going to do when we get home?"

"Dream."

………

"Dreaming."

At his desk, Chen Yuan thought that he was really too kind of a person, thinking about fulfilling his promise tonight.

In order to agree to this child, he was able to resist touching Xia Xinyu for so long.

Uh... touching in the literal sense.

Moreover, after returning home, he used the excuse of 'having to memorize words and being afraid of disturbing her' to separate from Xia Xinyu.

Ah no, why does this way of saying it sound a bit strange?

It's not separating to sleep, it's separating to spend time... that sounds even worse!

In short, the last person he touched was probably her, right?

"Superpower will only be refreshed once and a half more, so I'll give you my last ripple."

With a test paper, a required English textbook, and some paper and pens.

Lying on the bed, Chen Yuan closed his eyes.

Dream, start—

It was still her room, and she was still lying in bed.

"Immortal!"

Shen Xiaoran immediately recognized Chen Yuan, the boy... god, who was sitting at her desk again, preparing for the monthly exam.

"Hello, hello."

Chen Yuan greeted her casually, then opened his book and started studying.

The four great prodigies, when you are studying, the prodigies of the eleventh sect are studying.

When you are sleeping, the prodigies of the eleventh sect are still studying.

This is why the eleventh sect will surpass the four sects in the future!

The diligent disciples of the eleventh sect create scores with their hands.

"I won't disturb you... but Immortal, please heal my legs first," Shen Xiaoran pleaded.

"..."

He forgot that this kid thought that he had healed her legs in the mystic realm, rather than her own imagination.

Well, it's good that she understands the dream as a mystic realm and attributes everything to the blessings of the gods, so she won't subjectively recognize the dream and be forced to break free from it.

In fact, in the dream, as the dream master, she can even launch an earth-shattering attack.

Of course, that's fake.

Only he can truly interfere.

"Alright, I grant you the power to stand up."

Chen Yuan nodded and said casually.

"Don't joke around, Immortal." Shen Xiaoran complained, "Isn't it necessary to touch me to..."

"Hey, hey, don't talk nonsense."

Chen Yuan quickly interrupted her nonsense, then walked to the very expectant girl in front of him, preparing to cast a spell.

He understood her feelings, because after trying very expensive scientific treatments without success, she believed that making her legs better was an extremely difficult thing, even impossible. So, she would be confused and resort to theology, believing that it was her own magical power.

Therefore, this idea was born.

Then, I'll fulfill your wish.

"You're really smart, you even know that this requires a ritual, I couldn't fool you."

After saying that with a light smile, Chen Yuan gently tapped Shen Xiaoran's forehead with his finger.

Looking at him blankly, she asked weakly, "It seems different from last time?"

"It's different every time, stand up."

Following what he said, Shen Xiaoran slowly got out of bed.

Then, she really stood up!

Just as she was about to say something, she saw Chen Yuan sit back down at her desk again, starting to prepare for the 'monthly exam'.

Even the gods aren't doing well.

She didn't speak, just slowly walked over to him, then quietly sat in the corner of the bed.

"What's wrong, aren't you going out to play?"

Chen Yuan felt her gaze, so he asked without raising his head.

"When will you be done?" the girl asked restrainedly.

"..." Chen Yuan raised his head, looked at Shen Xiaoran, who was dangling her feet on the edge of the bed and silently watching him, and asked in confusion, "It'll probably take a while. What's wrong, do you need something?"

Shen Xiaoran didn't speak, just shook her head.

"Okay."

Chen Yuan turned his head and continued to write.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, within inches of him, Shen Xiaoran was like a younger sister waiting for her older brother to finish his homework. Afraid of disturbing him and slowing down his progress, but also wanting him to finish writing quickly and complete his progress ahead of schedule. So, she could only mutter in a low voice, "When you're done... can you play with me for a while?"
