Chapter 588
Harold was silent for a while before he rubbed Crystal’s head in amusement. “Why are you so unlucky?
Does it hurt?”
The peach was not big and did not fall from a very high place. It did not hurt much, but Crystal felt very
wronged. “Is this about my luck? If you had not insisted on making a fuss, I would not have been
smashed by the peach. At the end of the day, this is your fault.”
She was unreasonable. Harold paused and said, “Well, it’s my fault.”
He pushed Crystal’s hair aside and looked at her scalp. It was a little red, but it was not serious.
However, Crystal took the opportunity to moan. “Blow on it for me. It hurts.”
Harold lowered his eyelashes and blew on her. Crystal continued, “Aren’t you going to coax me? When
other kids are injured, their parents would coax them.”

Harold raised an eyebrow. “Am I your father or your mother?”
Crystal said, “You’re my fiance. Hurry up and coax me.”
Harold didn’t know how to handle a spoiled child. After thinking for a while, he still didn’t know what to
do. After all, back then when he was still a child, no one coaxed him when he was injured. Crystal was
a little disappointed and said, “Don’t you know how to do it? You should say, I’ll blow it for you and the
pain will go away.”
Harold, “…”
Harold said seriously, “I can’t.”
Crystal said, “I can do it.”
“Then you should coax yourself,” Harold said. “I trust you.”
Crystal, “…”
Harold sighed and said, “As compensation for not knowing how to coax others, should carry you back?”
Crystal immediately said happily, “Then I forgive you.”
She climbed onto Harold’s back skillfully, picked up the peach, and called him, “Harold.”
“…” Harold, “Yes.”
Crystal said, “When I was young, I walked this path alone. I thought it would be great if someone could
keep me accompanied, but at that time, I was alone.”
At this time, the sun passed through the clouds and became brighter. The wind blew through the peach
forest, making a rustling sound, with the fragrance of dry soil. A group of unknown birds flew over the
sky. The flowers were blooming, and the water was singing.
Harold carried his beloved little girl on his back.
He looked at the winding path in front of him, as if he had seen the little Crystal back then. She was still
very short.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe walked alone on the long path of weeds. Maybe because of loneliness, she would hum seme
random tune. Maybe she would say hello to the flowers and grass on the side of the road, maybe
she would talk about her troubles with the birds on the horizon, or maybe she would throw herself at a
gust of wind. She smiled because of this intimacy.
Harold asked, “What about now?”
Crystal laughed and said, “Now… aren’t you accompanying me?”
The sadness of the past seemed to disappear at this moment.
She raised her head and saw a large field of rice fields in the distance. She saw smoke rising from the
chimneys of the staggered farmers and the verdant mountain in the distance.
She could feel the warmth of Harold’s body at this moment. If she compared her childhood to a mirror,
the water would surge up, and the mirror would be covered with a thick layer of mist. She slowly
reached out to wipe it, revealing the blue sky and white clouds beneath the mirror.
The gloom and boredom were like accumulated ashes. There was not a single trace left behind.
Her childhood was finally shining in her memory.
