The surroundings have turned into a familiar country road. He Xuan looked at his body again, why did he become shorter?

"I'm... I'm back in my childhood? Is this my hometown village?"

After thinking about it carefully, He Xuan finally understood.

The illusion of laughter substituted him into the memory of his childhood.

At this time, He Xuan was only eight years old and was in the second grade of elementary school.

The country road in front of me is the only channel connecting the village with the outside world.

Every day, He Xuan has to walk five kilometers on this small road with his friends before he can go to the nearest town to go to elementary school.

"He Xuan, hurry up and leave! Otherwise, you will be late!"

When He Xuan was in a daze, Wu Xu, a bully from the same village, pulled his clothes and shouted.

"Brother Xu! I... I'm leaving now..."

In an instant, the fear of being dominated as a child arose spontaneously, and He Xuan... with a smiling face, quickly followed behind Wu Xu obediently.

And He Xuan was carrying two schoolbags.

That's right, every day when going to and from school, He Xuan has to help the bully Wu Xu carry his schoolbag.

Moreover, whenever Wu Xu is unhappy, he will beat and kick He Xuan a lesson, and he is not allowed to tell his parents, and... He must be made to laugh every day and be bullied by him, and he is not allowed to show unhappy or sad expressions Come on, because if the villagers or teachers and parents see him like this, Wu Xu may be in trouble.

However, He Xuan, who was weak at this time, actually cooperated unconditionally and was bullied like this.

"This... Is this me? Was I so cowardly when I was a child? I still want to... accompany the smiling face and fake smile all the way?"

Helpless, He Xuan found that his body was not under his control.

It is completely reproduced, the scenes and scenes of his childhood.

When he arrived at school, He Xuan seemed to be Wu Xu's little follower, and he dared not say a word to any request Wu Xu made.

Even, Wu Xu blatantly ordered He Xuan to lift up the skirt of the girl He Xuan liked, but it made the girl cry. The teacher came over... and severely criticized He Xuan, but Wu Xu didn't know what was wrong. nothing.

"I... I did all of this?"

These memories hidden deep in his mind brought He Xuan back to those days.

"Yes! When I was young, ever since I was severely beaten by Wu Xu. I was afraid when I saw him, and I had to fake a smile when I saw him. I had to pretend to be very happy to go to school every day... Actually, I didn't want to laugh at all. , I want to cry every day! I don’t want to go to school every day..."

He Xuan saw again, this time, he pretended to have a fever and didn't want to go to school.

Because Wu Xu asked him to steal two yuan from home yesterday to buy him something to eat, He Xuan didn't want to steal it, so he pretended to be sick and stay home from school.

However, Wu Xu seemed impatient to use the money He Xuan stole to buy food, so he went directly to He Xuan's house and asked him to go to school with him.

"Xiaoxuan, your good friend Wu Xu has come to ask you to go to school. Are you still having a fever? Are you going? If you don't, I'll ask him to ask your teacher for leave?"

The mother on the side actually thought that Wu Xu was He Xuan's best friend. There was no way, who made He Xuan put on a "happy" "smiling face" every time Wu Xu and He Xuan were fighting. "Woolen cloth?

"I...I'm not going! I don't want to go to school, Mom...I'm not going..."

He Xuan trembled all over when he heard Wu Xu's name, and resisted with all his strength.

However, Wu Xu from the outside shouted very "enthusiastically" to the inside: "He Xuan, you are not a good student if you are absent from class with minor illnesses! Are you sure you really don't want to go to school?"

Being threatened by Wu Xu, He Xuan's whole body trembled involuntarily, but he got up from the bed, put on his clothes and carried his schoolbag.

"Didn't you say that you are sick and don't go to school?"

Mother is very strange.

He Xuan was in a hurry, and stretched out his hand towards his mother and shouted: "Mom! Give me two dollars, I...I want two dollars..."

It was really hard for He Xuan to imagine what would happen to him if he didn't go to school today, or if he couldn't give Wu Xu two yuan after going to school...

"What do you want money for?" Mother asked puzzledly, "Are you going to buy any other materials?"

"Mom! I beg you, just give me two dollars!"

He Xuan was almost pleading, and his mother gave him two yuan inexplicably.

After receiving the two dollars, He Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, put his schoolbag on his back and went out, and when he arrived at the entrance of the village, he carried Wu Xu's schoolbag on his back very naturally, consciously and with a smile on his back.

When the workers in the village saw it, they couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Wu Xu and He Xuan played so well together!

It was the same at school, in front of Wu Xu, He Xuan always smiled like a fool.

He will care about "Wu Xu" very much, and will take out his pocket money to buy food with "Wu Xu", and he will help "Wu Xu" with homework, with a smile on his face all the time...

"No! This smile is a fake smile. I...I don't want to laugh, and I don't want to do those things. It's all because of fear, but I...why am I so scared? "

At this moment, He Xuan finally completely recalled the "childhood shadow" that had been buried deep in his heart for so many years.

Especially Wu Xu's smiling words: "He Xuan, what are you doing with a sad face? Let others see it and think that I have bullied you? Laugh! Did you hear... make me laugh... yes... that's it Smile... smile a little more..."

【First Update】

4Chapter 17 Childhood shadows! 【Second update】

For He Xuan, who is now positive and optimistic, he can hardly recall this memory hidden in his heart.

Because after the third grade of elementary school, He Xuan followed his parents' work and came to the city to study in elementary school.

However, even in the new environment in the city, He Xuan still maintains this "fake smile" life state.

Fake life.

When encountering things that you don’t like, are unhappy, and don’t want to do, but because you are afraid that others will get angry or angry, you have to wrong yourself and pretend to be very happy to do it with a smile.

"It turns out that it's the shadow of my childhood that has been affecting me all the time!"

This time, He Xuan fully understood.

In fact, many people, more or less, faced the same childhood shadow as He Xuan when they were young.

Although this is an insignificant matter in the eyes of adults, it will cause childhood shadows that will affect a lifetime for children.

Even if someone like He Xuan has selectively forgotten that memory after growing up, it will still affect his character and conduct in the world.

"Maybe, each of us is like this. It's not a fake smile from the heart to cater to others. In fact, it is yourself who suffers."
