It was already too early, and Du Bai quickly flew back to the Su Mansion. However, before flying back to his yard, his heart moved but suddenly changed direction and flew towards Su Wanmiao's room.

He passed through the wall without any obstacles and floated into the room. With the help of this ghost body, he could see Su Wanmiao lying on the bed at a glance.

Just looking at the frown on her face, it didn't look like a beautiful dream.

"Have you had a nightmare..."

Du Bai murmured to himself softly, slowly stepped forward and reached out to reach out.

The perspective in front of me was twisting like a turbulent earth, and the light seemed to be recast. It took a long time to gradually spread in front of me again...

Regaining his sight, he first looked around.

This place seems to be a dark book pavilion, and you can smell the unique ancient atmosphere of books with your nose.

There are high bookshelf on both sides, displaying thick books like iron walls. Half a window with a slightly open front is shining through the sparse light, but there is no wind blowing.

This place is like a closed cage, trapping the people inside tightly, even if they breathe, they are so stagnant. The dull and low emotions seem to spread infinitely in the air, and a movement or a look will be affected.

Apart from the negligible window, there is only one light source in this small room, which is a small old copper lampstand placed in the corner. The thin white candle was inserted on it, which had been lit for nearly half, bringing a faint and pitiful dim light to it.

Next to the lampstand is a small desk for children to read, but there are thick book bound books and various books that need to be studied, which are piled up slightly in a mess. Some books have been broken and half fell to the ground, but no one picked them up, or there is no time to pick them up.

Kneeling at the desk was a well-behaved girl in plain white mourning clothes. She was about the age of age and was simply combed in a bun. Her small cheeks had a bit of Su Wanmiao's current appearance, innocent and cute, and a bit of stubbornness in her bones.

Even in this extremely uncomfortable environment, the girl just pursed her thin lips and stared at the books she opened on the desk with her eyes, and was studying word by word, unwilling to stop.

Du Bai looked at the scene in front of him and felt thoughtful.

"Su Wanmiao when she was young?"

"Is this her dream..."

He pulled his perspective away from Su Wanmiao's body, and then a phantom formed and stood quietly beside him.

A voice came from outside the window, and Du Bai looked over and saw several servants playing in the courtyard outside, including a little girl dressed in a luxurious manner. Her face should be Su Zhirou when she was young.

This girl has a heartless temperament since she was a child.

Their play was obviously also heard by Su Wanmiao, who was concentrating on reading. She raised her head and looked at the direction of the window, as if she was moving intentionally, but finally she did not set off. Instead, she continued to sit down and look at the books in her hand that ordinary adults could not understand.

"Why not go out and play together?"

Du Bai slowly approached the table and squatted down to look at the little girl.

Su Wanmiao, who was in a young state, raised her head slightly and looked at him strangely, as if wondering why a stranger appeared here, and she still obediently replied, "Because I want to study."

The voice is inevitably a little childish, but it is particularly serious.

Then, before Du Bai asked, she looked down at the book in her hand, gently rubbing the pages of the book with her white and tender little hands, as if she was talking to herself and as if she was answering him, slowly saying things she had never said to others in her heart.

"Grandpa said that my father and mother can no longer protect me and my sister. If I don't study, learn these things, and don't become smarter and more powerful, then bad people will come to bully us, and our Su family will be ruined..."

"I can't eat enough in the future and I won't wear warm clothes..." She said word by word, her voice gradually faded, "Even the things left to us by my parents will be taken away..."

As her mood changed, the dream seemed to be slowly changing. A faint cloud and mist rose around her at some point. The sound of playing outside had disappeared, replaced by a roar like a muffled thunder. The lightning flashed outside the window, and thunder seemed to cut through the sky and fell on the ground!

"Click!"

The book let go and landed on the ground.

Du Bai looked down and found that her body was trembling gently with the thunder outside, and her body gradually curled up into a ball, like a little cat left behind, pitiful and helpless, in a dark loneliness, she could only rely on snuggling to get the remaining warmth...

"We must work hard... Even if I am just a daughter, I can't be worse than them..." As if she was escaping, she buried her little head between her legs and murmured quietly. Her already small body was a little smaller, and her voice seemed to be trembling. "You can't be willful anymore... To protect your grandparents and sisters and this family, you can only rely on myself..."

“But it’s really hard…”

"Even if I keep memorizing those articles, I always make mistakes when I recite them... I think about the plan for a long time, and there will always be various problems..."

"I'm too stupid..."

But at this moment, a warm hand stroked her hair, making her tremble, reminding her of the gentle palms of her father. Although the person in front of her was not a father, her face looked familiar but she couldn't remember where she had seen it, but she inexplicably developed a long-lost attachment to him, and subconsciously made her willing to believe him.

"Don't worry. Everything will be fine...it will get better and better."

Du Bai said softly, after watching the girl hesitate for a moment, she gently rubbed her palm like a cat, and she looked obedient on her little face, and she couldn't help but feel a little funny and helpless.

As the saying goes, dreams are the things that best reflect a person's true thoughts in his heart.

Just like Liu Yiwen's dream before, he was bullied by Liu Jingtai since he was a child, so he dreamed of fighting a turnaround and trampling Liu Jingtai under his feet!

Su Wanmiao in front of her is no exception. When she was a child, she experienced the pain of losing her parents. Under the supervision of foreign enemies and her harsh grandfather, she had to force herself to learn things that should not have been her learning, learn conversations in the mall, and abandon the innocence and playful nature of a girl of the same age.
