Loneliness Is When You're Not By My Side (4)

Although she knew that talking to a kitten was stupid she didn't know what else she could do.1

She really didn't know where to find Yin Shaojie.

So she had no choice but to follow where her feelings were taking her.

When she stepped out of the pet shop, the sun had begun to set westward and the sky turned saffron.

The two elementary school students really took only a few minutes to check out the pets before saying goodbye to the puppy reluctantly and they headed to the main gate of the school.

"Jiajia, I'll see you tomorrow."

"Yeah!"

Those two innocent smiles were like that of angels. Mu Xiaoxiao seemed to have caught sight of good luck. She turned and walked to the right.

She hadn't been in China for the past four years and City A had changed a lot since then so she didn't know where she was.

She headed toward the right and continued in that direction.

After walking for some time, the sky turned a reddish-orange.

Then the sunset;s glow gradually faded. Eventually, darkness covered the land.

In the early evening.

Mu Xiaoxiao was still walking in the same direction. She seemed to be clinging onto something.

It seemed as though if she could just follow the kitten's guidance, she would be able to get what she wished for and find the person she was looking for.

Under the street lights, her swaying figure seemed very lonely.

This seemed to be her first time walking alone on the streets.

The cell phone in her pocket rang.

She took it out, saw that it was Song Shijun calling, and answered it.

"Xiaoxiao, where are you?"

"Do you have any news on Yin Shaojie?" she asked without answering his question.

Song Shijun paused for a moment and said frankly, "No… Xiaoxiao, stop looking for him outside. Tell me where you are and I'll come pick you up. We'll think of something together when we get back, okay?"

"No!" Mu Xiaoxiao was stubborn. There was a sour feeling in her eyes as she choked with emotions and said, "I must find him today, I must! I'll definitely find him…"

But why were her worries growing ever more over time?

A voice was telling her, "You'll never find him. You'll never get him back."

It felt like she was punched so hard in her heart that the pain almost suffocated her.

"Xiaoxiao…" Song Shijun sighed as he didn't know how he could persuade her.

Mu Xiaoxiao said nothing and hung up.

Up ahead was the commercial district.

People were coming and going and she was almost knocked down by a pedestrian.

Mu Xiaoxiao staggered and stabilized herself. She clenched her fist and bit her lip as water clouded her eyes.

"Yin Shaojie, I'll find you. I'll definitely find you…"

The temperature had dropped significantly and the cold wind was chilly.

Mu Xiaoxiao gathered her clothes.She had been looking for Yin Shaojie all day.

Walking among the crowd, she felt even more lonely.

"So this is how loneliness feels."

It was so painful.

This was the first time Mu Xiaoxiao had felt so profoundly lonely.

"Enough." Suddenly, she was covered with warmth and a man spoke by her ear.
