As dawn broke, Li Ke asked Xiao Guang to go to the restroom, while she opened her backpack and took out some food and drinks.

When Xiao Guang came out, Li Ke pointed to the small washbasin next to him: "Wash your hands and face, and get ready to eat."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Guang took out his little helmet, placed it on the cushion, and carefully used the water in the basin to wash his face and hands.

Li Ke watched as she finished tidying herself up before pointing to a small bag beside her and saying, "This is for you. It contains your personal belongings. From now on, you should organize your own things and put them in your own bag. You have to be a clean and obedient child when you're with me."

Xiao Guang's eyes lit up when he saw the small backpack. He immediately nodded vigorously at Li Ke, who smiled and said, "You can speak now, but keep your voice down. There are strangers next door, and we need to be careful of them. Also, you can't say anything to anyone except me unless you get my permission, understand?"

Xiao Guang took a deep breath while holding his backpack before saying, "I understand. I don't get along with anyone except my older brother, and I don't talk to anyone."

Li Ke nodded, and Xiao Guang, holding his bag, began to examine it, asking Li Ke, "Can I open it and take a look?"

"Sure, the bag is yours, and the things inside are yours too. You can use them as you like, but don't waste them. However, this doesn't apply in dangerous situations. If a bad guy wants your bag and I'm not with you, just give it to them. Staying alive is the most important thing." Li Ke felt a little awkward speaking to someone; she hadn't spoken to anyone like this in a long time.

"Yes, Xiao Guang remembers. Xiao Guang likes it very much. With it, Xiao Guang is even more like his older brother." Xiao Guang replied softly, then naturally sat down next to Li Ke, opened his backpack, and began to look at his things.

Inside was a set of toothpaste, toothbrush, and cup, along with two small towels, two sets of clothes and underwear, and a pack of tissues. Li Ke was worried that the little guy wouldn't be able to carry any more.

Xiao Guang laid out all these things, touched them all like treasures, and even took off the switchblade hanging around his neck and put it on the table.

"Big brother, what's this for?" Xiao Guang asked Li Ke, holding up toothpaste and a toothbrush.

Li Ke took out a set of dental tools from her backpack and showed Xiao Guang how to use them. Xiao Guang stared wide-eyed and didn't blink once throughout the whole process.

Li Ke couldn't help but think that this little one was really obedient, worry-free, and cute. She handed her half a bottle of water and said, "You should brush your teeth properly too."

Xiao Guang took the water bottle and asked in a low voice, "Big brother, how am I supposed to use these two soft towels?"

Li Ke: "One is for wiping your face and hands, and the other is for wiping your body in the shower. You can choose how to use it. After you're done, let it dry and remember to put them in separate bags."

Xiao Guang repeated Li Ke's words in a low voice, then nodded: "I've got it. I'll brush my teeth now and show you, brother, whether I did it right or not."

The little guy was used to being frugal, so he only poured a tiny bit of water, moistened the toothbrush that already had toothpaste on it, took a sip of water, and swallowed it after just one gulp.

She looked at Li Ke, somewhat at a loss, and said, "I wanted it to move around in its mouth a little more, but it won't listen to me. I'm so stupid."

Li Ke suppressed a laugh: "It's okay, you'll get it after a few more tries, take your time."

Seeing that Li Ke wasn't angry at all, Xiao Guang smiled with his eyes narrowed. While watching Li Ke's reaction, he clumsily brushed his teeth thoroughly.

After brushing his teeth, Xiao Guang rinsed off the remaining foam with water from the small basin, then said to Li Ke, "The toothpaste smells nice and cool, why can't I eat it?"

Li Ke: "Because it's not food, eating it will make you sick."

Xiao Guang nodded, carefully wrote down this point, and then went back to look at his own things.

Li Ke placed the food next to her without urging her. After looking at her treasures, Xiao Guang asked Li Ke, "Big brother, what about the things I brought with me? I can carry them myself so you won't have to work so hard."

The items Xiao Guang was referring to were a glass jar, a hair clip, and a close-fitting camisole. Both the hair clip and the camisole belonged to Xiao Guang's mother.

The little guy packed up all his belongings, and Li Ke only let him choose three things to take with him. These three things were chosen by Li Ke after eliminating a lot of junk.

Li Ke took out a sealed jar from her bag. The hair clip and underwear were inside the jar, and they had all been cleaned. Of course, Xiao Guang had done this himself, at Li Ke's instruction.

Although she felt a pang of pity and took Xiao Guang with her, she never intended to treat her like a prostitute.

Xiao Guang is not very old, but she is not young either. Apart from being a little weak and short, Li Ke treats her like an adult.

Anyway, apart from herself and her dog, no one else can expect Li Ke to serve them any more.

After inspecting her treasures, Xiao Guang put them back into her backpack with a satisfied look on her face, except for the small knife she kept hanging around her neck.

"Big brother, you're even more amazing than my mom! I love you so much, and I love all these things!" Xiao Guang hugged his little backpack and expressed his joy to Li Ke.

Li Ke responded, "Then grow up quickly and become as capable as me, so you can have more things that belong to you in the future."

Xiao Guang nodded vigorously: "I will, I definitely will."

Xiao Guang picked up the food that was placed to the side and started eating. She wanted to grow up quickly and become as powerful as her older brother.

"Big brother, you eat too! Did Xiao Guang finish all the food and you have nothing left to eat?" Xiao Guang stopped what he was doing when he saw Li Ke sitting against the wall and asked with some concern.
