787 A Dream Without a Trace

"…"

The room fell silent.

Xue Xi sat there and felt her mind go blank. This feeling was very unfamiliar. After all, ever since she was young, her mind had been active. It felt like a huge and empty warehouse. She wanted to move all kinds of knowledge inside. Sometimes, she would multitask and never felt that her brain was not enough.

However, at this moment, she felt as though it had stopped. She paused and wanted to say something to ease the awkwardness, but she did not know what to say.

Just as she was at a loss and felt that she did not know what to do, she heard laughter. The man slowly said, "Little kid, it's your birthday after the new year."

Xue Xi: "?"

She did not understand. "Huh?"

"After your birthday, you'll be 20 years old and be all grown up."

Xue Xi: "…"

Xue Xi: "!!!"

She suddenly understood what he meant and blushed. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly opened her eyes.
