Chapter 23 He is really an ice-type superpower
If we don't interact, how can we find opportunities to send scumbag men and women to their deaths? Tian Yao raised the corners of her mouth, her smile cold and without warmth: "Of course - no."
She had truly died once, being torn apart and ripped to pieces by a group of zombies. How could she forget that kind of pain?
The atmosphere between the two people suddenly became weird.
Tian Yao noticed the change in atmosphere and immediately covered it up by saying, "I won't embarrass you."
"I won't make it difficult for you," Duan Lei turned around and said in a low voice that only he could hear, "I will help you."
Help me? Why would he help me? Tian Yao was full of doubts, pretending not to hear anything. She put the rice into the pot, added water and started to cook: "Your last name is Duan, idiot!"
After saying that, she also regretted it!
As expected, after she finished speaking, Duan Lei's mood immediately fell: "When will you believe me?"
When will you believe him? Tian Yao's answer is no! She didn't respond to Duan Lei's words. Anyone who experienced that kind of thing would be the same as her, right? "You are just a child, where do you get so much emotion from? Go wash your hands quickly, my parents will be back soon!" She pushed Duan Lei's shoulders and pushed him into the bathroom: "Use soap and wash your hands clean."
Duan Lei turned around and hugged Tian Yao fiercely: "Sister Tian Yao——"
"You believe me, okay?
Being hugged by the little boy unexpectedly, Tian Yao felt very uncomfortable. She didn't know where to put her hands. She raised her hand and touched Duan Lei's head at an inappropriate time: "I'll try my best!"
Duan Lei is too smart and she can't deceive him. Rather than being exposed by him, it is better to say this.
Try your best, she can only try her best!
"Tsk! That's a little better than just giving me a perfunctory treatment," Duan Lei let go of Tian Yao and turned to wash his hands.
Even though Tian Yao was standing right next to him, she didn't notice Duan Lei's blushing face.
"How could I be perfunctory with you?" Tian Yao said without giving it much thought: "Trust is inherently difficult. If I simply tell you that I trust you, you won't believe it yourself, right?"
"Similarly, trying your best means that you try your best to make me believe you, and I try my best to believe you!"
She didn't notice at all that the child facing the mirror made a face with his tongue stuck out.
Duan Lei was in high spirits when he left Tian Yao's house, but only he knew why! He didn't want to have a sister anymore, so Tian Yao wasn't a sister to him! As long as she wasn't a sister, the rest would be dealt with later.
When Tian Yao thought about Lin He, she began to sigh!
She was unwilling...
The next morning, Lin He was sitting in his office when he received a video message on his phone. It was a video recorded by a car's dashcam. In the video, when his son was about to be hit by a car, one of the two girls wearing identical dresses on the roadside rushed to the front of the car and picked up his son. The girl he was grateful to was standing far away on the roadside, and the one who carried his son to the roadside was another completely stranger.
Lin He stroked his chin: "So it wasn't you who saved my son!" He said that he felt that the girl was indecisive and artificial, and didn't seem like someone who would rush out to save someone.
He picked up the phone, pressed a few buttons, and put it down again...
In a corner far away, where no one would notice, Duan Lei put his phone in his pocket: "But luckily my uncle is a traffic policeman, otherwise this matter would be really difficult to handle!"
"It's such a headache. Tian Yao doesn't believe me..."
He stretched out his hand, and a piece of ice gradually condensed in the palm of his hand.
Then he closed his palms and the ice disappeared instantly.
"Forget it, I'll go back and tell Tian Yao that I completed the mission successfully," Duan Lei said happily as he walked towards Tian Yao's house. It was class time now, so he wasn't worried about running into Duan Xue.
When Tian Yao came home from school, she found Duan Lei playing on the computer in her room. "How did you get in?"
Duan Lei pointed at the balcony: "Flip over the balcony!"
"This is the fourth floor? Climbing over the balcony? Are you kidding me? My parents must have opened the door for you," Tian Yao looked outside. Although her house did not have a guardrail, it was impossible for a fifteen-year-old boy like Duan Lei to climb up with his bare hands.
"Tian Yao——"
Tian Yao stared at Duan Lei and asked in a long tone: "Hmm?"
"——Sister," Duan Lei grabbed Tian Yao's hand: "I have a secret, and I will only tell you!"
"You climbed up onto my balcony just to tell me your secret?" Tian Yao felt strange having the little boy hold her hand. She quickly pulled her hand back and asked, "It really wasn't my parents who opened the door for you?"
"Really? I came in on my own." Duan Lei winked at Tian Yao and pointed at his nose proudly. "I accomplished what you asked me to do yesterday. How are you going to reward me?"
"Stir-fried potatoes or potato chips, it's your choice," Tian Yao turned and walked towards the kitchen, thinking quickly in her mind, how could this little brat Duan Lei accomplish Lin He's matter in just one night?
"Is this a reward? Can I have two fried eggs? One for each of us," Duan Lei sighed secretly in his heart. In front of Tian Yao, he could only pretend to be a child. When would this disguise end?
This request was not excessive at all. Tian Yao said simply, "I can't do it!"
"Ah? No fried eggs? Then I won't tell you my secret," Duan Lei hung his head in disappointment. He only wanted to tell Tian Yao his secret, but he didn't expect Tian Yao to be not interested at all.
No matter how smart Duan Lei was, he could not have imagined that Tian Yao was not uncurious about his secret, but that she knew what Duan Lei's secret was.
"Where did you, a little brat, get this secret?" Tian Yao pointed towards the refrigerator and said, "Go get some garlic. If you can't cook, peeling garlic is good!"
Duan Lei had no choice but to squat aside and peel garlic under Tian Yao's command. However, being able to be by Tian Yao's side made him happy no matter what he did. At least by Tian Yao's side, he didn't have to worry about being killed by a single mistake. "Isn't cooking easy? I can't do it today, but I will next time!"
"No, I'm afraid you'll burn down my kitchen," Tian Yao hurriedly stopped Duan Lei's fantasy. What a joke! If Duan Lei was allowed to play with fire in his own kitchen, their family would probably be left with nothing before the end of the world even comes!
Duan Lei said with a grin, "Don't worry, I'll go back and cook up my own kitchen! I promise, we'll have fried eggs next time. You're so easy to feed, fried eggs are enough for you."
Tian Yao's forehead veins throbbed when she heard this. Unable to bear it any longer, she growled at Duan Lei, "Little brat, do you understand? You're the one who wants the fried eggs, not me!"
"Also, you're only fifteen now, don't try to seduce me with suggestive words. Wait until you're eighteen!"
He hugged her, held her hand, and even went into her bedroom without her permission. Even if she was stupid, she knew what this kid meant.
She could understand Duan Lei's reaction as he felt that she was different from Duan Xue, and that it was a brother's attachment to his sister, but she would not think of anything else.
Duan Lei was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly: "I, I don't have any..."
